Together, Lydia and Stefan made their way through the hallway. Bang. Dead. Bang. Dead.
Lydia wasn't very fond of Stefan, but she wanted to stay alive. And Stefan could be her way out. He could help her find Gavin.
Gavin! Lydia's eyes snapped back to attention as she saw him.
Gavin was fighting his own battle. And losing. A Capter was on top of him, slashing his face with a knife.
"Let's go help him!" Lydia shrieked, running over to Gavin.
Stefan rolled his eyes but followed her. If he wanted to get on Lydia's good side, he needed to pretend to like Gavin.
Gavin was yelping. He looked up and saw Lydia. His screams grew louder as the Capter continued to knife Gavin on the forehead.
Lydia saw the pain in Gavin's eyes. She didn't think twice as she shot the Capter in the neck. Gavin and the dead Capter grew silent. Gavin sat up, holding his forehead. He took his hand off his forehead and looked up at Lydia.
"Is it bad?" he asked quietly.
Lydia's eyes grew wide.
"They-they-they marked you." Stefan stammered, obviously stunned.
"What?" Gavin exclaimed.
Stefan handed Gavin a glass shard.
A symbol had been engraved on Gavin's forehead. The symbol looked like a hexagon with a "LNC" in the middle.
Stefan grimaced and grabbed Lydia and Gavin's hands.
"We're getting out of here." he yelled. "Now."
