The Search: Chs. 1 & 2: The Search Begins, Darrion – Ray begins reading the ninth book in the series of Left Behind – The Kids
It felt good to be on his bike again and heading home. Ryan wanted to tell Judd about his visit with Bruce he knew Judd would be ticked, but he didn’t care. Ryan would just laugh and take Phoenix for a run in the park.
As he rode toward a hill, he heard a plane overhead. It was flying low. Too low. Ryan looked up in time to see the underside of the fighter jet. The roar was deafening. Ryan was sure it was going to crash.
He glanced down just as his front tire hit the curb. Ryan struggled to stay up and swerved into the street. Just as he gained control, and earth–shattering explosion behind him through him to the pavement. His bike skittered ahead. He saw blood on his elbow and a huge hole in his jeans.
Tires screeched. A van was sliding toward him! He stared, frozen, is it demolished his bike and stopped within inches of his face.
He smelled gasoline. Fire crackled behind him. Screams filled the air. More planes flew overhead. Another explosion. Then another. The van backed up and try to get around him, but his bike was caught underneath. Ryan grabbed the front bumper and pulled himself up. The driver was looking back. The men on the passenger side was short with a round face and looked like he needed a shave. Ryan saw something move in the back of the van.
The driver turned and yelled. The other man banged on the window, and screamed “Get outta the way, kid!”
Ryan Randy check his bike. The crumpled handlebars were caught between the back wheel and the bumper. With the explosions and noise around him, his first thought was to run. Find shelter. Get to safety.
But something drew him back to the van. He peered through the tinted window. Nothing. He cupped his hand to block the light and was barely able to make out a kid with heavy gray tape over his mouth. Ryan tapped on the window, and the kid turned. Blindfolded!
