They arrived in Renn's car, the drive silent and tense. He kept glancing at her like she had lost her mind, but Angela ignored him. Her heart was pounding too fast to care. The moment the car stopped, she pushed the door open and ran toward the stairs that led to Hiro's room. She didn't bother to knock.
Kaito and Alex were already there. They had arrived first since they came in Kaito's car. Seraphina and Hailey had been left behind at Mr. Slade's house where it was safer for them.
As Angela stepped into the room, the air felt heavy. Taros was holding Hiro down as he fought against him, shouting in disbelief, his voice full of raw pain. She felt his agony as if it were her own. Renn came in right after her with Stales and Samuel, who they had picked up on the way.
"He is alive! Do your fucking job, Dave!" Hiro shouted, his voice breaking as he tried to break free. Kaito rushed to him and grabbed hold of him.
