Chapter 4: Raiding AlphaStar--Part II
(Back in Chapter 3…)
Carolyn was beyond shocked; the security guard that she always liked for his kindness to her was related to the boy that she fell in love with in the Cul-De-Sac, "Evan… Do you know what this means…?"
Evan arched an eyebrow, "Not really… What are you thinking?"
"Since you work here, you can bring Eddy here so he can visit me!" Carolyn stated with pure joy in her voice, "A-And even Double D and Ed can come too, you know?!"
"… You know Alpha and Xeno won't let me do that," Evan stated with a bit of sadness, "Besides, I haven't seen my brother in four years; how would you think he would react when I come back?"
Carolyn's happy face soon dropped into sadness when he heard Evan's statements, "I… I-I guess you're right…"
They sat there in a bit of silence before Evan got up from where he sat, "Well, I better get back to my duties," he stated as he started to walk towards the door, but then turned back to Carolyn, "Try to eat what I gave you, alright?"
"Y-Yeah…" Carolyn muttered as she turned towards the food on her table, her head lowered a little in sadness.
Evan made a sigh as he then unlocked the door in front of him, exited the room and locked the door from the outside again, 'Carolyn… I'll help you get out of this place one day; I promise.'
(And now, onto Chapter 4…)
Meanwhile, back with the three Ed's, they were soon closing in on their destination while riding the bus; the AlphaStar facility.
"Okay, we're almost there," Eddy stated as he then turned to his two friends, "You guys ready…?"
"As ready as I'll ever be," Double D stated.
Ed nodded his head in a furious manner, "This is for all of the gravy in the ladle!"
"… Okay," Eddy muttered a little strangely at Ed's statement.
Soon Eddy commanded Ed to pull on the string on the top of the bus, which told the bus driver to stop at their designated location up ahead. The bus then came to a complete stop as the three Ed's then stepped off the bus afterwards.
The three Ed's were now standing on the cement road that lead to the AlphaStar facility, which was still quite a bit of walking distance away from where they stood.
"Well… here we are," Eddy muttered to his two friends.
"Yes, indeed we are here…" Double D replied with a bit of gulp afterwards in his voice.
"… C'mon, Carolyn's waitin' for us," Eddy then said as he then started to walk towards the building with Double D and Ed walking closely behind him.
For some strange reason, there was no one guarding the entrance to the building as they soon walked inside through the front door, "Strange…" Double D muttered, "Where are all of the security people?"
Suddenly, the three of them heard a loud, slightly screeching siren go off.
"W-What's goin' on, Sockhead?!" Eddy shouted over the wailing sirens as he turned to Double D beside him to his right.
"I-I don't know, but I think we triggered the alarm system!" Double D stated with a bit of a panic in his voice as Ed started to chow down on his fingernails with slight nervousness.
"Warning: Three suspicious intruders!" yelled out a robotic voice over the intercom system, "Must be disposed of immediately! I repeat…"
"We've been sighted guys!" Eddy yelped aloud as he then turned to Double D and Ed behind him, "We gotta split up and find her now, so they can't get us all… And don't get caught!" with that said, he soon ran off down a hallway.
"Easy for you to say, Eddy…" Double D muttered as he then turned to Ed, "Ed, go down that hallway there; I'll go down this one over here, alright?"
"A-Alright, Double D!" Ed replied with a furious nod of his head as the two of them then split up to do down two different hallways… Too bad they would not last long alone…
Meanwhile, back with Carolyn in her room, she was looking out at her window at the moonlit night outside when she suddenly heard sirens go off in her area of the building, "Huh?!" she muttered with a gasp of surprise, "That's strange, I haven't even done anything too--"
"Warning: Three suspicious intruders!" yelled out the robotic voice from over the intercom system, "Must be disposed of immediately! I repeat…"
After hearing the words 'three suspicious intruders', it was then that Carolyn thought of the Ed's, "No… surely it can't be them…" she muttered with a gasp of shock.
Meanwhile, back with Evan, he was currently sitting down on the couch in the soldier's lounging room. He was off duty at the moment… that is, until the sirens went off, "Oh man, what now…?"
It was while he was getting up off of the couch that he started to hear a conversation between two other soldier's that were walking into the lounge, "We've captured two of the three intruders already. Apparently, they're just a bunch of twelve year old," stated one of the soldiers, "Hmph, I hope they get's what coming to them once they're sent to Alpha and Xeno; you know how those two are with intruders."
"Yeah, but the other small kid is still on the loose somewhere," the other soldier replied back to the other one, "I heard he's just too small to try and catch!"
That one statement got Evan's attention immediately as he widened his eyes, 'It couldn't be…?!'
Evan soon started to dash off to where he thought he knew where to find the last intruder…
I noticed that this chapter is shorter than the other three... Hmm... Oh well, I felt like ending it there anyway. XD
