[Suggested song for this chapter – Survivor by 2WEI, Edda Hayes]
Delphi dropped everything and ran.
She flew down the slope towards the harbour, taking the route she had already decided on.
She was extremely grateful for Rachel's sneakers. The medical tech clearly liked to be prepared for all terrain eventualities in her work day, the woman's shoes gripped the dry rocky slope like Delphi was running a cross country race, allowing her to run as fast as she could push herself.
She prayed that the next part of the anonymous author's escape plan was ready to go.
Stage one, the door had been unlocked. All she had to go on now for stage two of the plan was 'run for the water'.
Let's hope whoever the insider was had had the same idea as she did, the most direct route to the water from the medical pavilion.
She could faintly hear the shouts of the guards she had disabled. She hoped there weren't too many other guards within earshot of the relatively isolated standalone pavilions.
