Bankquet Hall 3rd Person
Bentley had gotten the time machine off and now he and Penelope were trying to figure out what went wrong. Murray was trying to get the doors open, it seemed like someone had welded them shut. Carmelita was trying to console Dani (Murray's wife) she wasn't taking her daughters disaperence so well. Sly was trying to figure out how many people had gotten hit, it seemed like there were only three.
"That's it!" Bentley exclaimed, "We found the problem!"
"Well what was it?" Sly asked.
"Someone spliced the wires," Penelope explained, "It was sabotoge."
The crowd gasped. Who would do such a thing?
"I'll bet it was Sylvia!" Molly said, "That little whitch! She was probaly hoping I'd get hit."
"How dare you accuse her!" Kyle said angerily, "Your the witch! I bet you did it!"
"I bet it was you!" Leo said to him, "Always so jealous."
"Stop it!" Carmelita yelled at the bickering children.
"Look it would take masive brain power to pull off something like this," Bentley said, "Far beyond any highschool student's capabilaties."
"I don't care who did it!" Dani yelled, "I just want my daughter back!" she burst into tears again and Murray rushed to her side to try and comfort her.
"So how do we get them back?" Sly asked. He might not show it as much, but he really was worried about Sylvia and the others.
"Well first we have to find them," Penelope said.
"What do you mean, find them?" Carmelita asked.
"Well they could be anywhere in time," Bentley said.
"Can't you narow down the serch some?" Sly asked, "If not we may never find them." This brought a new round of tears from Dani.
"Good ridence I say," Molly said, "Those three were nothing but trouble- Ow! what was that for?" Molly said while rubbing her arm where Kyle had hit her.
"That was for being a bi-"
"Stop fighting!" Carmelita said, "It's not helping so unless you have something constructive to say, just shut-up!"
"Ok well, thier probaly in the same genaral area, and if you can think of someplaces they really wanted to go to, they might be there," Bentley said.
"Didn't the thing have preset corodinates?" Sly asked.
"It works by thought," Penelope said, "You think of where you want to go and it takes you there. To go back to your own time you use one of these." Penelope pulled a little remote out of her pocket, "You just press this button and you come back to the machine."
"What if they weren't thinking of anywhere?" Carmelita asked.
"Then the machine would keep them in cyber space untill someone else thought of a destinatoin then send them with that person, we checked to see if they were in cyber space, but apparently someone thought of a place they wanted to be," Bentley said, "All though..." he looked over to Penelope and some silent must message passed between them because her eyes lit up.
"Bentley your a geinus!" she said and they rushed over to the machine and started flipping switches.
"What? What is it?" Carmelita asked, confused.
"I might be able to search the memory to see who picked the destination," Bentley said, "That could tell us alot about where we need to look."
"Great!" Sly said.
"One thing though," Penelope said, "We need to know what order they dissapered in."
"Sylvia was last," Kyle piped up, "I don't know about the others though."
"Mary was the first one to get hit," Dani said through sobs.
"Ok well according to this," Penelope said, "Sylvia picked the destination. I don't know where it took her though... I don't think she even knows..."
"What do you mean?" Sly asked, "If she picked the location, how could she not know what where it was?"
"Well I don't think she was really thinking of a place so much as she was thinking of something she wanted to find. The machine just brought her to where she could get it," Penelope said.
"How do you know she was looking for something?" Carmelita asked.
"Well we can see what she was thinking," Bentley said.
"What was it?" Sly asked, curious.
"Answers," Penelope said, "But it won't do us much good unless we can figure out the questions."
"Any one have any ideas?" Bentley asked.
"Only two people could possibly know something like that," Kyle asked, "Unfortunetly for us, they're with her."
"We'll keep trying to get something else of the computer," Penelope said, "In the mean time we need to figure out who's behind the sabatouge and get that door open."
"Can't we just call the police or something," Molly whined.
"First off we're police," Carmelita said,indicating herself and Sly, "Second off I already tried calling for back up, the phone lines are jamed."
"Well then how do you expect us to get out of here!" she practically screamed.
"I'll bust the door down," Murray said, "It's just a door, give me enough time and I'll get it off."
"That's the spirit," Sly said, "Don't worry we'll get out of here."
A/N This is just a short little chapter to let you know what everyone else is doing. I figured you all might want to know. Oh and if I mentioned a name you don't remember and it didn't have an attached explanation I suggest you look back on the first chapter, when Crabgrass is doing a role call. That's when I introduce most of her classmates.
So who can guess who my sabatour is? I'm still tossing around some ideas for motive but I'm pretty sure who it's going to be, but I would love it if you gave me your input, I wanna know how good I am at coming up with plot twists, I hate it when I know exactly what's going to happen in a story before I even read it. So tell me what you think, Okay?
Also my family's going on a week long boat trip, I can take my laptop so writing won't be a problem, but I might not have Wi-Fi so I don't know if I'll be able to post. Review!
Disclaimer: I don't own Sly. I only own what you don't recognize.
