Hey, thanks to the two very quick reviews I got, I was inspired to get this up and running tonight, well this morning I should say. Thanks for voting as well, and though they are different I have made up my mind regarding my own opinion included. Next chapter will show the decision.
Zexar.
"Nevel let me out of here", Aaron yelled, rocking on the chair he had been tied tightly too.
Okay, this plan has gone badly, very badly. Nevel knew we were coming, and now I'm locked in the basement, tied to a wooden chair. Apparently he'd had microphones fitted on my laptop, the son of a gun, but luckily they'd malfunctioned before I'd mentioned the viruses, and that, my friends, is a reason to pray to God. Not that a reason's needed. Anyway, the daemon had people waiting for us, had me tied up, and had Carly taken to him, wherever in his house that is. All bets to his bedroom. Little shrimp.
"NEVEL", Aaron shouted, this time getting really angry at the thoughts he was having.
He managed to raise himself to his feet, and was standing bent over with the chair legs facing behind him. He had a quick idea and ran backward straight into the wall, smashing the chair into pieces before slipping and smashing his head on the wall.
"Holy crow", he muttered, getting up and rubbing his head as the rope had come loose when the chair shattered.
He stumbled over to the door to try and prise it open, but it was locked by a bolt on the other side of the door. He then gave up and squinted in the dull light, trying to find another way out, with success. A stair case on the other side of the room led up to a door that Aaron supposed would have been used to bring things down there.
"I can pick this", Aaron muttered.
He searched around for a small, thin piece of metal to pick the lock with, but couldn't find anything, so he picked up a chair leg, which looked fairly strong, and attempted to destroy the lock. After a few minutes the chair leg broke completely, leaving Aaron angry.
"For Christ sake", he shouted as he punched the wooden door.
I can't believe today, it's been seriously weird. We boil out brains in Spencer's car, me and Freddie get dared, Nevel shows up with an EMP device, and now I'm locked in his basement. How can a day do this? I hate to think what Nevel's trying to get Carly to do, in fact, it makes me shiver, and I don't know why, it's not like I'm with her.
He heard a weird scratching noise from the main bolted door, so he rushed over and put his ear against it to hear heavy breathing and a key turning in the lock. The door was pushed open with enough force to knock Aaron to the ground, causing a cloud of dust to form around him.
"Aaron?", they asked.
"Carly? What? How?"
"You underestimate me", she laughed, holding out her hand to help Aaron to his feet.
"Where's Nevel?"
"Oh, in his study, he won't be getting out"
"Oh you genius"
As I pull her into a hug I feel at home, but why? Feeling her body against mine is a welcome gesture, and I find myself not wanting to let go. She isn't pulling away but maybe we've only been like this for a few seconds, but it feels like hours, if only that were true. She pulls away and looks into my eyes, as I do to hers, and we linger, before she leans in towards me. I look down and she looks like she immediately regrets the move she made.
"I'm sorry", Carly told Aaron.
"Don't be Carls", Aaron smiled in reply.
"I-", she started to say before smiling and continuing, "Lets go to his study and mess with the kid"
"Bad girl", Aaron laughed before following her.
They opened the door to see Nevel duct taped to the wall from his shoulders downwards, completely stuck and unable to move. He looked furious as he noticed them, and shouted at them.
"Free me at once"
"Where is it?", Aaron asked, knowing Nevel would know what he meant.
"Where's what?", Nevel questioned, being awkward.
"The pear phone you nub", Carly stated, once again, totally out of character.
"Okay, okay, in the drawer", he replied, indicating a drawer by nodding in its direction.
Aaron went over and opened the drawer, to have pepper spray fired at his neck by the automatic defence installed.
"Too low", Aaron laughed, before picking up the pear phone and pressing a few on-screen buttons, making sure the files hadn't been tampered with, "And you haven't broken the encryption either", Aaron stated, happily.
"Good, lets go back to my apartment", Carly replied, smiling.
"Not right yet", Aaron smiled in reply, before sitting on the computer chair and plugging in his USB flash drive.
He copied over the two virus files to Nevel's computer, where they instantly vanished without a trace, with the only real knowledge of their existence lying with Aaron and Carly, who knew about them.
"What're you doing?", Nevel asked.
"Nevel, you do anything like this again, and I swear I'll activate the two viruses I have just uploaded, destroying your website, computer network, and every piece of hardware associated, in two seconds flat"
Aaron then walked over to Nevel and leaned in to speak into his ear.
"That includes you desire to kiss Carly, that evaporates now", he whispered, only audible to Nevel.
"Lets go", Aaron said to Carly, before leading her out the room.
"Wait, what about me?", Nevel called.
"Sorry, can't hear you", Carly laughed.
"Get back here right this instant", Nevel yelled, trying to wriggle free until he heard the front door slam, where he gave up and stood there, patiently waiting for someone to come along.
"There is no way in this world that he'll be bothering us again", Aaron laughed as they walked in.
"Hey guys", Spencer said, holding a pack of frozen peas on his head, "Where do you go? And what happened with the lights and blind earlier?"
"It was Nevel", Carly replied, "He had an EMP device"
"Yeah and he stole Freddie's phone which had a load of iCarly information so we went to get it back"
"So you just walked in and took it?", Spencer asked.
"Nah, he locked me in the basement and took Carly to his room", Aaron began, "That remind me, Carls, how did you escape?"
"Oh that was easy, I told him I'd kiss him in exchange for the phone, so he agreed. He closed his eyes waiting for me to kiss him, so I used duct tape and got him against the wall"
"You are a genius", Aaron laughed.
"Where are Sam and Freddie?", Carly asked Spencer.
"Upstairs somewhere"
"I'll go", Aaron replied, before heading up the stairs towards Carly's room.
He got to Carly's room and walked in to see an empty room, so took of his jumper and lobbed it onto the guest bed, before putting on another, white, blue, green, and yellow hooded jumper. He then went into the bathroom to sort out his hair, which was exceptionally messy, and sang along to a new favorite song of his.
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,
You could cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in,
And if you don't want to see me again,
I would understand,
I would understand,
I would understand.
Aaron then left Carly's room and flew up the stairs two at a time, reaching the glass door of the studio and stopping immediately, his heart rate steadily increasing as he saw it happen.
Well, it's 1am here so I should get to bed, considering I've got a long cycle tomorrow :) Song is Jumper by Third Eye Blind, and is also in the movie Yes Man. Any idea on what Aaron saw? Review and tell me :)
