Forsada: Volume II In The New Eden Series - Plot & Excerpts
There’s still a quarter mile to the exit, but with every step the air tastes less like gravel and more like pine, and sky, and sun. When we broke through the cave-in, we didn’t wait for the others. We carved enough of a hole to squeeze through, and we started walking. “Oh, lord, I think I’d forgotten fresh air,” Garrett says, and I know what he means. “I wonder if it’s daytime,” I say, speeding up. “I don’t care. Sun, stars, clouds, rain—as long as it’s outside,” Garrett replies. I don’t know if he’s thinking about it, but I keep wondering how we broke through the cave-in without ever coming upon Shem’s corpse. We dug deep and long. Too long. I don’t know how many days and nights we dug, taking turns. I even lost track of how many water expeditions Ginger led back to the cavern. Too long, I know it. Ignoring the pain that screams within me, I speed up.
