「Early in the morning.」
Outside the shelter, vehicles were already lined up.
Nina Jacobs and Daniel Hale helped Vera Coleman into an armored vehicle.
This was a vehicle Myra Lawson had specially prepared for them, its destination the new base.
"Weren't we supposed to leave in two days?
Why did Lawson come in person? I haven't even finished preparing."
Vera Coleman had no idea why the arrangements were so rushed this time.
That morning, Justin Lawson and Myra Lawson had arranged for their transfer first thing.
She hadn't had time to pack many of her things.
"I'll have Yvonne Willow help pack everything and bring it over later,
so you don't have to worry about it,"
Nina Jacobs said comfortingly.
"That's right. Since they all say it's safest to leave early,
we should just listen to the base."
Daniel Hale didn't know why either, only that it was a last-minute notice.
Moreover, he noticed that the personnel and equipment for the escort had more than doubled.
