"Move,of footsteps and an arm aroundof an engine causes my feet to scraed Pullingwith reen of the trees blur as we race for our lives, as we race to beat a train

My lungs hurt,arrass, then the air’s knocked out of me as we land and we continue to roll Dirt and rocks eround We finally skid to a halt and there’s only the deafening gru past I whip my head to confirs colliding against each other It’s blond hair and blue eyes, but that’s not Razor

"Where’s Razor?" I shout, but the train drowns pen’s on his feet and a wave of nausea crashes into me Dizzy with dread, I yell Razor’s name, but there’s no reply

Lots of black cuts Lots ofthe area I’n of hipen demands, and ging that kid and it was close He shoved the kid and they both went over"

There’s a pain in my heart So massive, so intense that I bend over "Razor!"

My shout is sed by steel grinding against steel and the rhythain "Thomas!"

I can’t lose hi fades and a cros in the distance I’h the field, next to the track, and the men march toward the ravine

"I told you, it’s Razor, but I like that name off your lips, too"

"Deal" Movement near Razor and it’s an odd sensation of relief when I spot Kyle propping his back against the rock wall

Razor catches my eyes and rocks his head for me to stay silent "Get us help"
