Chapter 10

Finn opened his eyes, then it widen as he found himself being surrounded by apps on the screensaver. He did it. He made it inside of the computer. He looked around, trying to find Nikki. But he couldn't see her. Making him more worried. But then as he lifted his head to look up, he quickly spotted her climbing onto the apps to reach the email app. Usually he would seeing something like this happen in cartoons. But never he imagined that they would be able to do this on the computer.

When she zoomed out into the system on the email envelope, he then followed her lead and climbs up onto the email app. He wondered if he could read through the mail's history and see where the last message was send to. Sure enough, he clicked on the button that said send mail.

Hollywood Studios. That was where she was heading. Remember the comment he made before, he wondered if Nikki was only following his instruction to get to Hollywood Studios. But, why would she go there now? He said they had to meet there a little after two o'clock.

After thinking, Finn stepped onto the new envelope and pressed the send button to send himself into the system. The email carrying him was taking him to the other computer at Hollywood Studios. He only give a blink when he already arrived at the computer with the email opening up. He stared through the screen, already spotting Nikki outside in the control room about to step out. He had to follow her and see where she was heading.

Closing his eyes, he imagined his DHI going through the screen to get back to the outside world. It took him a few, long minutes. But he managed, feeling his entire self jumping out of the screen and landed into the control room. He had to admit, that was fun. He could see why Nikki always wanted to use it for their mission.

The mention of her name made him realized that he still had to find her. He ran over, stepping out of the control room. Finding himself looking down at the Sunset Blvd street. He hasn't been around this place much at night. Usually, he would see this place crowded with people. But it was like a ghost town, completely empty. He worried that there could be Overtakers lurking around somewhere. So he had to be very cautious and keep on with his mission.

Finn made his move down the empty street, always looking back behind him whenever he had the chance. He had to make sure he wasn't allowed by a guard or an Overtaker.

He made his way to Echo Lake. It was where he could see everything in the park. And he had to see if he could spot Nikki. He had no idea where she ran off too. He climbed onto the boat that was a restaurant to get to the top. He glanced around. It wasn't long before he could actually see Nikki wondering around close to the Indiana Jones attraction. She seemed to be alone.

…..

Nikki didn't know Finn was there. Her focus was placed on a few papers in her hands, glancing around the place. While in the computer, she made a discovery. There was a file app that revealed about blue plans of some of the attractions from all of the parks. Each of them were labeled to have malfunctions. It was a clue that it was the Overtakers that were the ones messing with the attractions and rides. One of these attraction that recently had a malfunction was at the Indiana Jones show. The rope that held the actor broke and the man had gotten injured by the fall.

After a moment of silence, she pulled out her phone. Wondering if she should call Finn and the others about what she found. She tightly held the phone, staring down at it for a very long time before shaking her head. "No. I need to check this out first. I have to know more about this before I explain it to them." She muttered to herself before putting her phone away and walked onwards.

…..

Finn watched her for a while. It looked like she had paperworks in her hands. He even witnessed her holding the phone. Was she going to call them? At first, he was relieved by this. But then he remembered that if she tried to call him, she'll hear his ringtone. And she would know he was there.

His heart suck a bit when she put the phone down and kept walking onwards. He was confused to why she would not call them when it looked like she was able to. What was going on with her?

Just as he was about to figure out why, he spotted two green toy soldiers marching down the street heading for the Indiana Jones attraction. They were heading for Nikki.

…..

The rest of the Keepers met out at the front gate of Epcot. Already, some of them were concerned that two of the Keepers were missing. The ones that was the most concern was Amanda and David.

"Where's Finn and Nikki?" Amanda asked first while David stared at them with a worried look. He knew that Nikki was acting strange lately, but he never seen her completely disappear unless something was wrong.

"Finn's following Nikki to Hollywood Studios." Philby finally had to tell them.

"Why?" David asked as his expression grew more serious.

"They must be in the computer. Finn mentioned that she was heading for the control room." Maybeck added on, sharing the same worried look as David.

"We believe that she's heading for Hollywood Studios. But we don't know why she's going there alone." Philby explained.

David narrowed his eyes. "Then, we need to get to Hollywood Studios to find them. There could be something wrong."

No one dared to disagree with them. Even Amanda nodded to agree with them. Without a moment to lose, they headed out of the park. Their DHIs disappearing into the outside world.

…..

Wanda parked the car a few miles away from Epcot to avoid the cameras and being seen by the guards. She didn't want to be questioned to why her car was parked there in the middle of the night. She had already been arrested due to the Overtakers framing her. She didn't want to go back to prison for another crime.

She turned her head to the driver side window, seeing the outlines of the Keepers' outlines making their way towards the car. Signing with relief, she unlock the car to allow them to get inside. She quickly noticed David. Her father had been so kind to him and helped him out. After meeting David, she could see that he was a good, very smart kid. So much like his father. She also felt awful for him that he didn't have any parents. It was why she allowed her father to let him stay at the apartment at the Magic Kingdom.

She did a head count for each of the kids. Noticing that two of them were missing. Making her concerned.

"Wanda, Finn and Nikki are already at Hollywood Studios. We need to get there now!" Wanda could hear Jess' voice in a panic tone.

"Hang on then." Wanda didn't question it. Pushing on the petal and going on a high speed down the road leading towards Hollywood Studios.

…..

Finn moved in a fast pace down off the boat and made his way to the Indiana Jones area of the park. Nikki was walking into a trap. He had to warn her. He could call out to the soldiers. Keep them busy so she could run for it.

He didn't know what he was planning to do with the papers and why she didn't tell him or the others about it. But he had to learn to trust her with what she was planning. He just hoped that he was right, and that she wasn't trying to trick him.

He sprinted into a run towards the green soldiers, waving his hands around to get their attention. "Hey! Over here!" This not only caught the attention of the guards, this also caught Nikki's attention. Making her turn her head around to the source of the voice. Her eyes widen when she saw Finn. He had followed her there. She froze in shock and guilt. She wouldn't want him to come while she was on her own investigation. But he still followed her.

Then she realized that she had been followed by the soldiers looking for the Overtakers. How could she be so stupid to not notice them? She thought to herself.

"Nikki! Run" She could head Finn cry out as the Soldiers began to charge towards him.

Nikki began to run, but only made a few steps as she froze again. Turning around to see Finn running from the soldiers. She couldn't just leave him there. What if there were more Overtakers? He would be outnumbered by them.

Nikki ran, but only in a different direction. Going around the back way to head back to Echo Lake. Hiding herself behind one of the building. Seeing Finn running in her direction with the soldiers following closely behind him. She waited till Finn passed him before she tossed over the trash can. Watching as both soldiers tripped over it and fell onto the ground.

Finn stopped and turned around, seeing the soldiers down and Nikki stepping out of her hiding place. Silently encouraging her, but he was still suspicious to her behavior.

"Come on. We need to leave before more of them come." He reached over and grabbed her hand and was about to pull her like a parent dragging a crying, pouting kid.

"Wait! I have to look for something here. The clue's here." Nikki spoke, pulling to stop him from pulling her further.

"What?" Finn turned to her in confusion.

"Wayne left a clue here. I also found the Overtakers plan-"

Finn shushed her, looking around before looking back at her. "It's not safe to talk here. The Overtakers are still out here. We need to get back to the front gate and wait for the others." He then pulled Nikki again by her hand. This time Nikki didn't pull away and allowed him to pull her.

There was so many questions he had to ask her. But for now, he had to get both of them to safety and get back to the others.

"What were you thinking, Nikki?" Finn then asked her in a soft tone as they both ran passed Echo Lake. "You know it's dangerous to go to the parks alone. Why would you do that?"

"Well, I wanted to tell you all. But I was afraid-" She paused, pulling Finn to a halt. She pointed ahead of her. Seeing two figures heading towards them.

"Quick, this way." Finn instructed her, pulling her away to head for Sunset Blvd. They were in serious trouble now. This made Nikki feel even more guilty.

…..

"Where are they?" Willa asked as she glanced round the entrance area of Hollywood Studios. "They should have been here by now."

The Keepers glanced around the place, seeing no signs of Finn or Nikki. Making each of them even more worried.

"I should of stopped her myself. I should of told her not to use the computers anymore." Maybeck signed, blaming himself.

Philby placed a hand on Maybeck's shoulder. "It's not your fault Maybeck. Though, you shouldn't of encouraged her. Either way, the most important thing is to find both of them and make sure they're alright." He ensured him.

"Well, I'm going in there." David said, determined to find Nikki and Finn. Before he could make the first steps, Amanda stopped him.

"Remember, we can't go alone. So I'm going with you."

"Count me in." Maybeck stepped forward to volunteer.

"Alright, then the rest of us could wait here in case Finn and Nikki head for this way. If we see either one of them, we'll call each other. Got it?" Philby spoke up, taking on the role of leadership. Even though Finn was better at this than he was.

"Alright, let's move then." David said before he, along with Amanda and Maybeck moved towards the direction of Sunset Blvd.
