Chapter 14

"Are you ready to do this?" Wanda asked as she prepared the couch for David like she would always do every night. The thought of having a stranger into her father's home terrified her at first. But after getting to known David and saw the kindness within him, she eventually grew to loving him like he was her own son. Also she knew that he was a huge part of the Keepers. So having him being tossed onto the streets without a place to stay wasn't an option. She tried to do the same to help Amanda and Jess, but she knew Mrs Nash, their care taker wouldn't allow that.

"I don't think any of us would be ready to deal with all of this, but I'm willing to do it." David honestly admitted. Wanda nodded, for she had to agree with him. Understanding how she felt. Though, she knew more since she was the daughter of Wayne.

"Just be careful. All of you." Wanda said, sounding like his mother. He really missed that. To have a family. To have a mother.

"We will, Wanda. I'll take sure of that." David give her a smile before he laid down on the couch to get comfortable. Then allowed his eyes to get droopy and let the sleep come in by imagining complete darkness and quietness.

…..

"David?" He heard a voice upon him, realizing that Charlene was standing over him trying to shake him awake. Finally opening his eyes to see her. She smiled down at him before she offered a hand to him to help him up onto his feet.

David took a glance around, realizing that they were standing close to Echo Lake in Disney's Hollywood Studios. "It's a shame a place like this that is so beautiful, can turn into the Overtakers' playground." He said before turning to Charlene, who nodded when she agreed.

"If only that were possible to come here without having to run or fight." Charlene added, her smile faded by this point. The thought of the Overtakers still frighten her. They had shook her in so many ways. But, she knew that the Keepers needed her. Especially Maybeck. After all they been through, she would never give up on her own team. She was their Charlene, the athlete.

It wasn't long till they saw Amanda running over to them, glowing in her hologram state. "Alright, we're all here." She smiled, relieved to find them instead of the OTs. Her face turned into a serious expression before explaining the plan. "Finn told me that the few of the OTs were lurking around the Tower of Terror. We'll all split up and scatter around the park to see if anymore Overtakers are out here. And if we see them, we need to lure them away from the MGM studios and the control booths. The other Keepers are already there."

"But, what if something goes wrong?" Charlene questioned, not liking the idea of going separated. But it was the only way for them to find the Overtakers quickly.

"The others in the control booth can let out signals throughout the park if there's any trouble." David suggested.

"Great!" Amanda grinned upon the idea." David and I will come to you and we'll stop the Overtakers there." The other two agreed with Amanda's plan. "Right, let's move out." She ordered before the three of them split up. Amanda headed for the Tower of Terror. David headed to the other side of the park to the Movie-themed section. Charlene stepped inside of the Chinese theater and headed for the stairs. Making her up to the top floor and found access to the roof. With this, she can have a good view of the entire park.

…

Philby led Willa and Nikki to the control booth close to the entrance of the park. Allowing the two girls to step in first by going through the door in their holograms like how Finn taught them to. Either by thinking of the dark tunnel, or just a white light of nothingness. Philby soon followed behind them and headed for the computers. Turning on the screens to access the cameras while Nikki did the same on the other side of the room with the set of computers. Willa stayed by the door to keep a look out for anyone that would try to get into the control booth. Like a co-worker or a Overtaker.

"There, I can see them." Philby pointed out to the screen that showed an image of the Tower of Terror. Spotting a few dark figures lurking around the place. They looked too young to be Disney employees. And they didn't look like any of the characters from the parks. But they did wear all black. It was the OTKs. One of them was Sally the others were just the other girls that neither of the Keepers know of.

"Nikki, send the signal to the others. The OTKs are there and they're on the move." Philby instructed her.

"On it." Nikki was already at work on the controls. She switched the one light close to the Center of the park on and off like in a morse code.

…..

Charlene's attention towards the park below her was caught by the blinking light at one of the street lights. She didn't know much about morse code, but she did know a little of it to know that it was the signal. Spotting David walking around, she waved her hands upwards to catch his attention.

At the corner of his eyes, David notice Charlene right away and turned to her. With her hands, Charlene signal that the OTKs were spotted and then pointed to the left of her direction to where they were. David give a nod to her before heading into that direction. He looked around to see if he could find Amanda, but she was nowhere to be seen. He hoped that she too saw the signal and was already heading there. He quickly made his move and headed into that direction where Charlene pointed to. Quicken his pace to get there before the OTKs got away.

He reach one of the pillars close to where the Tower of Terror was, hiding behind it to peer out. He spotted Sally talking to the other girls that were also under the spell by the looks in their green eyes.

"Did you tie up the security guard?" Sally firmly spoke as she eyed the other two.

"He's nice and secured as you told us to." One of the girls responded. "But it won't be long before someone else comes around here to find the guard here."

"If that happens, then you know what to do. Same goes if you see any of those Keepers." Sally sneered at the last word. "Remember, they have the microchip. Maleficent wants it. Do whatever it takes to get it from them."

The two minion girls agreed, not questioning the orders that were given to them. They turned to head towards where the pillars were. David pulled himself to hide behind the pillars so he couldn't been seen as the two girls passed by him. He waited till both of them were gone before he turned his attention to Sally who was heading into the building.

He gave a glance around behind him. Seeing that Amanda hasn't showed up yet. But he couldn't wait for her knowing that Sally was right there. He stood up and headed into the building.

…..

Finn already lead Maybeck and Jess inside of the MGM Building. Keeping themselves as quiet as possible. They didn't want to alert anyone that they were there. It didn't matter if it was a Disney Staff. It was just anyone that had the green eyes who were under control of Maleficent.

They sneaked down the corridor to head for the green screening room where they all met for the first time and filmed their DHI holograms. It held a bitter-sweet memory for Finn. And especially for Maybeck. Jess only been into this room once when the Keepers filmed the holograms for herself and Amanda.

Finn was the first to move his head and peeked into the room, scanning around for any sights of anyone. So far, the room was empty. But it didn't meant that it could just be safe to step inside. He was heisted as he slowly stepped into the room. The only sound in the room was the clicking of his shoes against the hard floor.

Maybeck was about to signal Jess to follow along with him into the room, then he froze when he noticed the dreamy look upon her face. There was a haze in her eyes. She was sitting against the wall of the corridor as she pulled out a notepad and a pencil and began to sketch on the paper. He could of sworn that he was seeing her drawing so fast that it look like someone fast forwarded her on their television.

He knelt down beside her and was about to touch her shoulder before she gasped when she woke up from the state she was in before. "Are you alright there?" He asked her in concern.

Jess' head felt so heavy that she had to hold it up, dropping the notepad for Maybeck to pick up and read. He raised his eyebrows as he was trying to understand what the drawings meant. All he could see was the picture of a microchip on the top right side of the page, while the other side of the page had a hand stretching out from a computer. In the center, there were bold words that said, "DANGER!"

"What does this all mean, Jess?" He whispered as he was checking to make sure she was alright.

"I-It's a trap." Jess turned to him with a frighten look. "We're walking into a trap."
