CHAPTER 87

Aggie

Moonsday, Novembros 5

Hard to think. Hard to move. But she could listen, and that’s what she would do. She would listen—and she would stay alive long enough to tell someone what she’d heard.

“Where is she?” Viktor’s voice. Angry.

“I don’t know!” Kira, the traitor, sounding upset. “I told her where to find us. She should be here!”

“He’ll be disappointed in you.” Viktor sounded pleased about that.

Who would be disappointed? Was there another traitor?

Sound. Someone walking through leaves.

Aggie turned her head just enough to look, to see, to remember.

Walking boots. Jeans. Muddy green coat.

This was the enemy the traitors obeyed. What had Kira called him? Professor.

Aggie couldn’t attack and kill the enemy, but she hoped she lived long enough to peck out one of his eyes.
