Chapter 12

At around nighttime, the three pairs arrived back in BuildIt. Nyan made sure no one followed the pairs. In fact, Nyan was surprised when there were friends who found their way there. Sefex and Mrc arrived first, then Spicy and Gallade. Hubble and Demon came back hours later. Yomc let the three pairs rest while the two newcomers walked around the hidden district. Nyan, Ganja, and Awezome led them around. It was 1 o'clock when Yomc started explaining why he aborted Operation: Finding Daorack. Ganja dubbed it.

"Ok. Umm...wait." Yomc searched for something in his bag. "Un momento."

"Just explain what is going to happen." Shadow yawned. Just at that moment, Yomc produced some envelopes, colored ivory and gold. He held it up high for everyone to see.

"There you are." Yomc smiled. "Now, some of you are wondering, what is my plan? I will explain. You may have known that our coup is only Phase One of my plan I made for weeks."

Everyone became eager to listen. He got the attention he wanted.

"On Wednesday, we'll execute Phase Two."

"Sounds fun." Bunnie said.

"I have here invitations to His Majesty's birthday party."

"Oh, I didn't know he has a birthday." Claire chuckled.

"Yeah I thought he was a million years old." Sera added.

"Lol!" Yomc started laughing. "Moving on, we have the invitations. I need four people."

Four people who have the guts to show up. After some moments, full of hesitation and decision, Misfit, Sera, Kick, and Video raised their hands. Everyone applauded at them.

"Since when was VGG here?" Mira asked. She pointed to VGG, who was surprised a bit.

"I was here since yesterday-"

"Okay cut it. A plan is only an idea until it actually works." Booz said. "Listen to Yomc."

"So we enter like a boss, kill the king, and walk out?" Sera joked.

"Kinda like that." The former General replied. He proceeded to explain. "Misfit."

"Yes?"

"I'd like you to drop these coins around the building. Drop them near the windows to provide escape."

"Will do."

"Video, poison the King's drink. Use this." Yomc handed him a vial of white liquid. "Now, Sera, try to rig a bomb in the King's limousine."

"What about me?" Kick asked, eager to hear what he will do.

"Act like Misfit's boyfriend."

"Go Kick!" Hubble shouted.

"Um... okay...?" He was a little hesitant. Yomc shot him a do-it-or-you-die look.

"Okay chill dude." Kick walked out slowly, with Yomc glaring at him. He shut the wooden door nervously. After some moments that felt like minutes, Yomc continued his speech.

"We already have drivers and vehicles. I also need some brave people who will hide in the shadows and defend if something goes wrong."

Meatballs 1 to 4 willingly raised their hands, volunteering. "I will also be there."

"Wait dude have you seen this?" Magical showed a newspaper to him. It read: 'Former General proven to be mastermind of the coup.'

"Well, I'm still going in."

"You sure?"

"Yep. I'm risking my life for this."

"Salute to Yomc."

"Hubble, Claire, Bunnie, and Demon-"

"Just call us Meatballs 1 to 4." Hubble interrupted.

"Okay. Meatballs 1 to 4, remain hidden until I tell you to go out."

"Understood."

"Anyone against my plan?" Nobody raised their hands. "No one? Good."

Meanwhile, in the Bunker...

"Hai." The soldier in red said. The one in a cyber themed outfit turned around.

"Yeah?"

"Are you alright?"

"Yes. I'm fine."

The five were recently electrocuted. They were forced to make it, collars for special prisoners. It was used to locate, threaten, and contain prisoners with certain abilities. In short, used against the people still loyal to them. They were doing it against their own will, and soon the King will collect the collars and use them.

"I am making sure it will not be functional." A person with gray wings, gray shirt, and shorts murmured to the guy in a light cyan hoodie.

"Are you crazy?"

"Somehow."

"Saul, they will test that."

"We have no choice. We have to ensure the safety of our people, Jerry."

Jerry started thinking of a way to help his people. He was interrupted by the noise of the door opening. Someone holding a tray of food entered the room.

"Here is your lunch." The guard, accompanied by a whole squadron of others, put the food on a small table. "His Majesty wants the collars to be ready by tomorrow."

"Hey, I thought he'll get them on Friday. It is still Monday!" Hai reasoned.

"Because of your bickering, we will collect it later."

"What? No!" The red soldier exclaimed. "You promised!"

"We make the rules here, Harry. You follow them, or else."

"Bro, calm down." Jerry held Harry before he could rampage.

"We will think of a way out of this." Another person in a red shirt said.

"Have you thought of anything yet, Potato?" The guard taunted him.

"I am alive, therefore I can think." Potato sarcastically responded. The door shut.

"I think they used a whole mountain of redstone just to make that door." Saul commented.

"Of course, we are their most important prisoners."

"Well, we just used a pinch of redstone dust to use here." Hai held up the collar he has been making. They weren't happy making them, they knew it will be used on the people still loyal to them. And they will suffer under the machines created by the ones they risk their lives for.
