Chapter thirteen – "It is…
a falcon?" I ask, though the answer is right in front of me. "What the hell?" Pyro asks.
"That's what it says…" Preston shakes his head, confused.
"'A very large adaption of a falcon, with added powers of reading minds and freezing time. It is dangerous and it's a carnivore. We have made it to take the group of boys that freed the last alien"
"So it was after them" Alice whispers. "Is it going to kill them?"
"It doesn't say"
"We'll save them before it eats them or whatever."
"Fuck the government" Pyro huffs.
"Where is it being kept?" I ask. Preston looks on the screen, trying to find the answer.
"There!" I point at the screen and Preston reads it out loud. "They are stored under the water tower alone with ninety-five military guards"
"Well, I'll be damned. You were right!" 'Nessa says to Preston. He smiles, triumphant as he shuts down the computer.
"Well, we know everything now, so shall we begin to plan to get them?" Alice asks. We all nod. "Let's do this" I say.
N/A – Liking it so far? The next part is going to be them at the entrance to the underground tunnels. I know it skips their plan, but isn't the suspense killing you?
"So this is it" Pyro says, matter of factly. She had a bag with fifty of her best explosives. All us girls were wearing cameo pants with shirts that showed off some of our stomachs. My pants were purple, gray and black. Pyro's were red, orange and pink. Alice's were light blue, dark blue and black. Vanessa's were light pink, hot pink and dark pink.
Preston wore his regular jeans and a blue shirt.
We slowly walk into the dark hole, not daring to use any sparklers to reveal we were there. The military was here, so we didn't want to get noticed too quickly. Alice was in the lead, followed by me, Pyro, Vanessa and Preston. The tunnel was dark and wide, but we still went single filled.
"Are we ready for this?"
"No" We all answered Alice as we continued to follow her.
