тАЬBut how?тАЭ Judd said.

тАЬYou sell him short,тАЭ Lionel said.

тАЬHeтАЩs a lot smarter than you think.тАЭ

Judd hung his head.

тАЬHe may have been inside when the bomb hit.тАЭ

тАЬYou guys donтАЩt know him like I do,тАЭ Lionel said.

тАЬIf he saw Bruce, he would have come back here fast. HeтАЩd have wanted to tell you, Judd. HeтАЩd have
been juiced about it.тАЭ

тАЬThen where is he?тАЭ

тАЬI donтАЩt know,тАЭ Lionel said.

тАЬThatтАЩs why we have to go back to the hospital.тАЭ

More explosions rocked the van when they drove away, but then the bombing stopped. The traffic must
have been bad.

Ryan felt lots of stops and starts. The men didnтАЩt say much, and with the tape over his mouth, Ryan
couldnтАЩt talk to the other kid.

Every time the van stopped, Ryan slid forward and hit his head on the metal posts under the captainтАЩs
chair. The short man laughed at him.

Ryan finally managed to roll onto his side and position himself so he wouldnтАЩt get hurt at every stop. The
floor of the van felt filthy.

Ryan tried to pick up sounds, but mostly he heard the hum of traffic. Someone kept punching buttons on
the radio. Finally a news station interviewed an eyewitness to the bombings. A flurry of reports about the
damage followed. There were chaos and terror throughout the world.New York Cityhad been hit.

тАЬAh, who cares aboutNew York?тАЭ the driver said.

тАЬMaybe itтАЩll dear up some traffic.тАЭ

The short man laughed, and someone turned up the radio.

тАЬ...devastating carnage everywhere in the heart ofManhattan,тАЭ the reporter said.

тАЬBombed-out buildings, emergency vehicles picking their way through debris, Civil Defense workers
pleading with people to stay underground.тАЭ

Ryan thought of Chloe and Buck. Their apartment was inNew York. They had been inChicagothe week
before, but could they have gone back before the bombing?
