hiding the babies? Could she have sent them away with a protector? Chase asked when they found no trace of her children. Keaton wiped his face, weary. God, I hope not. That s all we need to deal with. Larkin rushed back into the room, her machete in her hand, ready to battle once more. Are they all dead? Every last one of them. Keaton gave her a tired grin. You okay? Where s the girl? I m okay, just the claw marks on my back burn like a bitch. She s up in the SUV in the backseat, Larkin responded. Yeah, I know what you mean. Burns like a mother. It was then she saw the long gashes in the front of his shirt. With a soft cry of dismay, she touched his chest. His breath hissed through his lips in pain, and Keaton saw anger flare in her eyes. If that queen bitch wasn t dead, I d kill her myself, she growled. He kissed her softly, appreciating the sentiment that she cared enough to fight for him. Thanks, Foxy. Hey guys, we re ready, Monty said. Keaton grinned when Larkin s eyes widened in surprise. It was the first words that she ever heard Monty say. He bent low to whisper to her in an amused voice, Monty doesn t say much, so be thankful we got a warning. I heard that, Keats, Monty said as he passed them. They all walked back to the entrance and stood as Keaton threw a lit match into the nest. They watched as everything caught on fire and to make sure it didn t spread. In a way it cleansed them of the horrors they had just faced. Keaton saw the shadow of the flames flicker across Larkin s face. He wondered if she was thinking of her lost partner. They all thought about the loved ones lost to these monsters every time they did this. Keaton felt sorry that she had lost her innocence of the unknown and wished that all of them could be in a world where things like gremlins did not exist. But they did, and now instead of going off alone, for the first time he had someone he cared about close at his side. So, you think you can hang with this crowd, doing this with me? Keaton asked. He couldn t look at her face because he didn t think he could handle it if she said no. Larkin reached up, caressed his cheek, and turned his face to hers. She kissed him softly before looking up into his eyes. Oh, you aren t getting away from me that easy, big guy. Remember, I have handcuffs. The gremlin nest they just destroyed and the team standing around them with big grins on their faces all disappeared for a moment. Between the reflection of flickering flames in the depths of her eyes, Keaton saw all he needed to see.
