Kapitel 98: Escape – part 3

(Leon)

As they neared Athani, Ray slowed down the car considerably and carefully climbed up the elevated road. Just before entering town, Ray turned to the left and parked the car behind an old, abandoned building. He then turned his head and spoke collectively to all of them.

"Okay so," he began, "ahead of us is an entire town full of Deathless. I've parked the car here so it stays out of sight of them. But we need someone to keep a watch of what happens in Athani. If my calculations are correct, we still have a minute or two before the Deathless start forming the mound. Whoever the lookout is will have to run back and inform us so we can leave right away."

Leon looked back to see if anyone would volunteer. His eyes found Rody who kept shooting cautious glances at Samantha. Leon figured that his hands were virtually tied.
