//hey hey I’m here

“That’s our cue,” Harlow muttered, swinging down from the hideout carefully.

//yep, I did!

(Welcome back!)

Santiago kept down, following close behind Harlow. He dug out the pistol from the waistband of his pants, making sure the safety is off.

Harlow held a knife loosely in one hand, running down to the main area, where Rylan was.

Rylan was still on the ground, clutching her side as the guards ran around her. Alec had filed the Senators out and was going to come back soon.

//so basically about the whole backstory thing -
for harlow and rylan, I imagine they were childhood friends, but drifted apart a little after Rylan had to run, seeing as Harlow clearly couldn't follow her
She witnessed a murder and proceeded to accidentally murder the murderer, and was blamed for both deaths
So she ran
stuff happened
Joined up with the patriots
did a bad
left the patriots and dyed her hair and stuff
later on, formed an uneasy peace with them
more stuff
now
yay

//yes right

She finally reached the main square and hurried to Rylan's side. "Can you get up?" She shouted by her ear, trying to make herself heard over the noise.

(Wow, nice.)

Santiago sprinted ahead of Harlow to where Rylan was. A guard pointed his gun at him, shouting for him to stop. Santiago sharply smashed the butt of the gun into the side of the man’s head, simply knocking him out. He fell to a crouch next to Rylan. “Oh god, Rylan.”

"I don't think so. . ." Rylan muttered, wincing in pain. Alec was shouting orders and rushing towards them. "We need to get out now."

"Santiago, give me your gun and pick Rylan up. I'll clear a path," she continued, handing him the knife.

“Harlow, can you try and get her out of here? I’ll try and stall Alec,” Santiago said quickly.

Santiago nodded quickly. “I’m going to lift you, Rylan, okay? You tell me if it hurts,” he said, trying to keep from stuttering. He slipped his arms under her as gently as he could and slowly lifted her, cradling her against his chest.

//lmao it's okay, I do that all the time

"Let's go," Harlow said, shooting a man who popped out in front of her. She started hurrying for the car.

Rylan nodded and bit her lip so she wouldn't cry out. She closed her eyes and leaned against Santiago's chest.

Santiago followed after Harlow as quickly as he could without jostling Rylan. He kept her close to his chest, murmuring that things were going to be okay. But he knew they weren’t out of trouble yet.

They almost made it out, but near the exit, were stopped by Alec and some other men and women. Guards and soldiers, most likely. Harlow sighed. "Commander. What a pleasure to see you again."

//is that his title? commander?

//are you playing alec?

"Santiago, drop her." He growled, pointing his gun at her head. "She's to be shot by the firing squadron."
