A call over the radio almost shocked all four of them off the couch. “Jayce! Jayce, Temika is coming in on her Harley!” Leamon Lacy called in wild elation. “Holy shit, she’s burned! She’s—She’s got Doc Northwood with her!”
They all jumped up and charged downstairs and then out the side entrance, where the airbike was landing on the lawn in an erratic manner. Temika and Doc were on board, and both of them were obviously burned. Some of Temika’s wild hair had been burned away on her left side, and she was cradling a charred left arm. Doc Northwood’s back was bare in the frigid night air, and the skin was blackened and seemed to glisten in the light of the outdoor lamps.
Ten people charged the motorcycle even before it came to a stop, and strong hands pulled the two from the back of the machine, carrying them quickly towards the house as Symone shouted for someone to bring the first aid kit. Temika’s face was twisted with pain, and Northwood was unconscious. The bike itself was scorched and badly damaged, smoke pouring from its engine housing and the back wheel flat and partially melted. That Temika had got that thing here was a miracle as far as Jason was concerned.
