Part 12
Liz climbed out of the window and an agitated Alec followed her. They ran up to the fence and jumped it with ease. They ran through the forest but soon they were stopped by two X-7’s. One of them looked at Liz and pointed the gun at her, Liz froze but felt Alec push her out of the way as one of the guns went off. Liz swung into action and quickly knocked the two X-7’s unconscious.
“What is with people I know and getting shot?” Liz asked as she quickly ran to Alec’s side “Come on we have to keep moving” she stated helping him up.
“My arm” Alec muttered
“Come on we’ll be fine once we make it to the highway” Liz said grabbing his other arm and pulling him along. They made it the rest of the way to the highway without running into any more transgenics. As they reached the gas station Liz saw a familiar ute.
Sketch paid for his gas before heading back out to his ute. When he got there, there was a familiar brunette leaning against it “Liz?”
“Hey Sketch” She said running up and giving him a hug
“Where’ve you been? Ah tell me later we gotta get you home. But you’ll have to sit in the tray though the passenger seats got a spring sticking out of it.
“No problem. Sketch this is Alec a friend of mine” Liz introduced before she and Alec climbed into the back of Sketch’s ute. Liz had taken the lighter out of sketch’s pocket before climbing on the ute and was proceeding to heat the flame of the blade. As she did she noticed an engraving on the handle Tinga
“You knew Tinga?” Liz muttered
“We were friends” Alec said still clutching his arm
“This is gonna hurt” Liz said before using the knife to remove the bullet from Alec’s arm
He screamed out in pain before biting his lip. Liz removed the bullet and proceeded to cut the legs off her pants. She used the material to fashion a sling to put Alec’s arm in to restrain the movement. She used the left over fabric to place pressure on the wound and stop the bleeding.
Alec glanced at the now bare legs of Liz and in attempt to look away, looked up into her eyes which didn’t really help. As he gazed at her beauty he hoped to god he had some control over himself. “Uh you act like you have done this before” he pointed out
“Uh Maria and I went hiking once and she fell and broke her arm, this is how we made a sling until we got home” Liz stuttered, blushing under Alec’s intense gaze
“So uh why did you not particularly want to escape? I mean I have been called repulsive before but I can’t be that bad” Liz hoped to change the mood slightly
“General insecurities I suppose, seems stupid now. After hearing about the outside world from Tinga I just got a little paranoid about where I’m gonna stay earn money etc” Alec explained “And whoever said you where repulsive was obviously blind” he whispered honestly as he brought his hand up to cup her face, rubbing her cheekbone with his thumb.
“We’re home guys” Sketch said. Liz looked around and realized the ute had been parked in the alleyway behind the bar.
“Uh can you walk?” Liz asked as she blushed again and pulled away from Alec.
Alec nodded as Liz helped him stand and they followed sketch inside. “Maria would still be serving customers so we’ll wait for her in the apartment Liz told Sketch and Alec. “Actually Sketch would you mind telling her to close up early? Don’t tell her why just get her to close up”
“Sure” sketch nodded before heading back downstairs.
Liz led Alec into the kitchen and he leaned against the counter while Liz got out the first aid kit.
“So this is your place?” Alec asked attempting to make conversation
“Yeah, I’ll show you the bar tomorrow, but tonight you need your rest” Liz said as she began to cut away his shirt, revealing Alec’s smooth muscly chest
Alec noticed Liz blushing yet again, and smirked at the affect he was having her “I do not need rest I am a transgenic superhuman” Alec joked puffing up his chest
“Yeah a transgenic who just took a bullet for me” Liz rolled her eyes “Thank you by the way. But why did you do it?” Liz asked as she finished bandaging his wound and looked up into his eyes.
“Well I didn’t exactly know my way back into town. Didn’t want to get lost”
Liz smiled “How does your arm feel?”
“Much better, thank you” Alec whispered as he pushed a stray piece of hair back behind Liz’s ear. He leaned forward and pressed his lips against Liz’s. Liz was shocked to say the least but returned the kiss when Alec wrapped his arms around her waist. Liz opened her mouth slightly and allowed the kiss to deepen as she moved her hands up Alec’s arms to wrap them around his neck.
Liz pulled back and rested her hands against Alec’s chest. Alec leant his head against Liz’s before whispering “I have been wanting to do that since I first saw you”
“Really?” Liz breathed
Alec nodded before they both heard Maria and Sketch heading upstairs. “I do trust you sketch but I don’t see why I should have closed early” Maria said in her usual loud voice as she headed inside.
Maria saw a shirtless guy in their kitchen and went for the gun her and Liz kept by the front door. “Who the hell are you?” She spat pointing the gun in his direction.
“Whoah! Ria put the gun down for crying out loud” Liz said as she made her way out of Alec’s arms to stand between him and Maria.
“Liz!” Maria said dropping the gun and pulling her friend into a hug “Where the hell have you been?” She demanded
“Hang on” Liz said “You need your rest” Liz stated to Alec leading him to her bedroom “Get some sleep I’ll see you in the morning”
“What you’re not going to join me?” Alec smirked
“I’ll join you when your arm is better” Liz whispered before pushing him inside her room and closing the door.
“Come on chica where the hell were you?” Maria demanded when Liz came back into the kitchen “Cindy and Zack have been in Seattle with Max and Logan since you went missing” Maria handed Liz a fresh cup of coffee
“Why Seattle?” Liz asked
“Because Max got attacked by Brin who had been recaptured and brainwashed. Some chick called Renfro had Brin inject Max with a genetically modified strain of the flu. Max can’t touch Logan at all without making him sick” Maria explained
“Poor Max” Liz said “I however was in Chimaira”
“What!? At eagle rock? How Max said Lydecker destroyed the database and there was no chance of that starting” Maria rambled furiously. All this time Liz had only been a few hours away
“He didn’t destroy it he took it with him along with a select group of transgenics” Liz explained
“And was that shirtless hunk one of those select few?” Maria asked
“Alec? Yes he was. But there is some other stuff I have to talk about as well but that can wait till everyone is here I don’t want to go through it twice”
“Okay, Cindy sends her love but she is staying in Seattle, she met someone” Maria informed Liz
“Wow” Liz said
“And Zack Max and Logan will be here by morning”
“Good. So tell me what's going on with you and Sketch? When I was taken he didn’t have his own key to our apartment” Liz pointed out.

NOTE - The Max not touching Logan thing is not deadly for Logan and will eventually get fixed.
