Dominic didn't say anything; he just
glowered at Aaron who turned away. “Moron,” Aaron muttered and
moved to stand next to Justin.

“Look, I know how you
feel. I feel the same way.” Justin looked at them all. “I was
expecting safety and a chance to heal and rest.” He looked down at
his wrapped hand. The blood was dripping through the bandage. He
clenched his fist, ignoring the pain. “But we're here, now. Our
home is above us, somewhere. It's been captured, yes, but our
friends are there. People who will help us if we can reach them.
And we do have one small advantage against our enemies.”

“What's that, Justin?”
Maria asked.

He smiled grimly. “They don't know we're
here. We'll be coming in a direction they can't possibly expect.
And yeah, I know we're kids,” and he looked directly at Dominic
now. “But we are also Titans, and we're a hell of a lot tougher
than they think we are.”

Dominic stared at him for a moment and then
nodded slightly. The others looked to Maria who hesitated and then,
in a determined tone said “So what should we do, Justin.”

He pointed down the long hallway into the
distance. “We start walking. We start climbing. And we take back
Sanctuary.”

“We're with you, Justin,”
Maria said. The others nodded and Aaron clapped him on the
shoulder.

“Lead on, bud. I think
you're nuts, but lead on.” Aaron grinned at Justin and he smiled
back. Then he turned and looked down the hallway.

“Let's go,” he said and
led the way into the unknown.
