I dropped the cold hand and shouted, "That's not Jay, run!" The chain broke into a panicked sprint. The fake Jay shrieked and grabbed for us, but we were already crashing out the broken board into the night. We counted on the pier, breathless. Six. The right six. We checked everyone's chin scars and freckles twice.
