Chapter Two- The Warehouse
Skyla was laying in a dark room unmoving just staring at the ceiling. All of a sudden light came in as someone opened the door. Two men dressed completely in black came in. One graved her shoulders while the other grabbed her legs. They carried her out, down a hallway, and into the room with the chair. They threw her down and one strapped her in. They left her leaving the door wide open. Skyla just laid there not even trying to figure out how to get out. Soon the guy in the trench coat came in and hit the switch. Once again, Skyla was screaming in pain as the man walked out and down the hallway to some sort of control room. He sat down and turned on some camera. Soon the room Skyla was in showed up and you could see Skyla screaming in pain. The man shook his head. "That's what we do with people like you." he mumbled
Shane shot up once again in bed covered in sweat. He fell back onto the bed completely exhausted. This dream was worse than last nights, he was so glad it was Saturday. When he glanced at the clock, it showed it was nine am. He had an idea were Skyla was being held but he wasn't sure so he would have to talk to Cam about it. After his shower and a quick breakfast, Shane jumped into his car and drove to ninja opps. When he got there, Cam was once again attached to the computer.
"Cam!" Shane said and Cam jumped up in his seat.
"Shane, don't do that."
"Sorry, but this is important. Have you traced that strange power you were looking at yesterday?"
"Yeah, it's coming from…"
"The abandoned warehouses outside of town?"
"Yeah, how'd you know?"
"Ok thanks!" Shane said running out of the room
"Wait! Shane! How'd you… oh never mind." Cam said sitting back in his chair.
Shane drove up to the beach and spotted Tori's car. Good he thought. He jumped out of the car and looked out at the water trying to see if Tori was surfing. She was just getting out of the water. Shane saw her and ran up to her.
"Tori!"
"Hey, Shane."
"You know about those dreams? I think they are happening in one of the warehouses. Came said that a strange power was coming from one of them."
"You think those things are connected."
"Yes, but I don't want to go alone. Just in case can you come?"
"Sure but can I dry off and put some clothes on?"
Later Tori and Shane pulled up to a row of abandoned warehouses. Well at least they were supposed to be abandoned. One had every light on and a very loud generator running. Shane pointed to it and Tori nodded as they got out of the car. They quickly walked up to the front gate but quickly had to duck down behind a bush. Obviously, somebody was doing something because there were four armed guards standing at the entrance.
"Look out boys here comes a tornado." Shane whispered as he sent strong winds around each guard. Slowly the winds formed a funnel that got smaller and smaller until the guards were completely knocked out. Tori jumped up with Shane behind her. They dragged the guards, put them in a pile, and hid their weapons even though it looked like they wouldn't be waking up any time soon. As silently as possible they opened the door the warehouse. They ran down the hallway looking for a door. After about five minutes, neither had found a door, but they did find some stairs and ran up them. Once again, Shane and Tori found themselves in a long dark hallway, but this time there were doors. Most of them were empty and some had a random piece of old useless machine.
Shane opened a door but it was to dark to see anything. He was just about to close the door when he heard a low moan and saw the slightest movement. He turned around but still couldn't see anything.
"Tori come here." Shane whispered and Tori ran over. "I think she's in here. Help me find her or a light switch." Tori nodded and started to feel along the wall. She felt something sharp and moved it turning on a very dull light bulb that did almost nothing. It was better than complete dark though she thought. Shane scanned the room. He saw Skyla lying on the floor in the corner. She was alive just completely unconscious. Shane ran over to her and knelt down.
"Is she ok?" Tori asked from behind
"She's alive, but not ok." Shane said
"Come on, let's get her out of here." Tori said as Shane picked her out as gently as he could.
"Now did I say you could take my captive?" a voice came from behind. Tori looked at the door and went into fighting stance.
