“Boone, they’re not stopping.”

Boone

Of course, they’re not stopping.

Logan pushes the helicopter forward.

“We can cut them off,” he says.

“Do it.”

The helicopter surges ahead of the convoy.

Rotor blades thundering through the night.

Logan swings us across the freeway.

Then drops hard onto the asphalt two hundred yards ahead of the SUVs.

The landing is rough.

The helicopter skids slightly before stabilizing.

“Go!” Logan shouts.

The door slides open.

Russ jumps out first.

Adam and Blade right behind him.

I turn toward Wren.

“You stay here.”

She gives me a look.

“Not a chance.”

Before I can argue she grabs the laptop and jumps out beside me.

The convoy is already racing toward us.

Engines screaming.

Headlights blazing.

Cyclone’s truck appears behind them.

Boxing them in.

Raven’s vehicle slides across the far lane.

Suddenly—

The Architect’s convoy has nowhere left to go.
