“Kipp!” Ashira gasped, seeing him.
Kipp stopped his full out sprint, tripping and pattering to a stop. Panting and staring in confusion at the three people standing before him. His chest hurt with the heaving beat of his heart. He had thought they were guards standing in their way. Not the people they'd been looking for. A wave of dizziness brought him to his knees, as he gasped for air. Calm down. He whispered in his mind. Trying to will his heart to stop racing. Get up. You're fine. He could feel the blood draining from his cheeks and the cold sweat on his forehead. There was nothing he could do to hold down the vomit that forced it's way out. Emptying his stomach of the small amount he'd eaten hours ago.The sounds of footsteps charging at him caught him off guard, "Hey Kipp!" Take shouted down the hall after hearing Ashira call out his name to reassure that they weren't the enemy. "Chill out, it's just us man.." he said in a lower voice, waving his twitching hands. "Where's everyone at? Emma? Torin? Fred? Noah?"
