When Things Go Wrong
Hard Contact
Chapter 3: Uninvited
Murray didn't think, he reacted. He jumped strait up into the air while flipping around in midair kicking out the gun and using his downward momentum, brought down a fist to the canine's head knocking him out cold. As Murray landed he better studied his opponent. He looked down at a young golden retriever dressed in military black. Murray was almost shocked that a single person could infiltrate Bentley's lab without setting off any alarms or traps. As he looked down he noticed something he haden't before, and it was bad. There strapped to the canine's chest was a plate of gold unmistakable in the sunlight. "Crap" said Murray as he looked at the man's police badge and what was coming over the horizon.
When Murray ran back inside looking for Bentley he found him still staring at the apple free platform. "Bentley we've got trouble!" The turtle didn't even seem to notice. "Bentley! Snap out of it we've got cops!" This finally got the turtles attention. "What!" "We've got cops snooping around," Murray explained "And I saw even more on the way." This seemed to snap Bentley out of his dazed state.
"Murray go into the security room and push your big red button" "The one you never wanted me to push again since the time I accidentally locked you out and…" "Yes!" Bentley interrupted not wanting to be reminded about that day. "Now go, Hurry!" Murray dashed off into the direction of the security room to push the button he had accidentally pushed on more than one occasion. Within seconds emergency sirens sounded off throughout the complex and everywhere state of the art floor sensors, motion detectors, spot lights, and countless other devices set up to stop any intruder.
Bentley made his way up to an observation deck exactly five stories and twenty meters from his current position to see what was going on. When he got to the windows he couldn't believe what he saw. Around twenty to thirty helecopters had circled the compound along with jets uncountable as they passed overhead, but even they were no equal to the ground forces. If the police had it, they were using it. Hundreds of police cars made their way to the lab followed closely behind by dozens of armed tanks. Murray jogged up beside him. "Ok everything is ready and… whoa, they're serious aren't they." "Yes" Bentley replied "They don't want us getting away this time."
The first police cars were reaching the front gates and spread out in a common blocking formation. Tanks reached firing range and prepared to fire on command. Surprisingly however, no assault was made, no one challenged to defense systems and it appeared that no one even cared about getting in. They simply set up, and waited.
Murray took notice of this and turned to Bentley. "Why aren't they trying to break in?" "Because," replied the ever brilliant turtle. "They aren't set up break in; they're set up to keep us from breaking out."
A/N So why are the police going to such great lengths to get Bentley and Murray? What happened to Carmelita? Why is this guy so in love with your reviews? I honestly don't know. I need you as readers to review and use up a few moments of your time to make me feel good so I can keep writing stories. Thank you! I love my readers almost as much as I love reviews.
