CHAPTER 5

When everybody returned from stealing the nessisary equiptment, Zach handed out M-16 automatic rifles to everyone, except Max. Then he outlined his plan. "We have Sebastian feeding loops into the surrvielence systems at Manticore from one in the morning to four in the morning, which gives us three hours to get in, get the prisoners, and get out. Cindy, I need you to drive us and park the Hummer about one hundred meters away from the perimeter fence. Syl, you will remain outside the perimeter fence after we go in. You will use wire cutters to cut a hole in the fence at this point." he said, pointing to a position on the floorplan. "That is the only part of the fence that is out of sight for the people in the surrvielence towers. Krit, you and Max will procede down the first hall to your left, after entering the main hallway. The interrogation room is the third door on your right. It is guarded twenty-four hours a day, but we will be entering torwards the end of the guards shift, so he will be tired. Zane, you and I will go further down the main hallway to the infirmery, which is the fourth door on our left. Is everyone clear on the mission?"

"Yeah."

"Lets move out." Zach said

Manticore Infirmiry

Mulder and Scully had almost fully recovered from the bullet wounds, thanks to Manticore technology. Lydecker was only keeping them in the infirmiry because it was easily guarded. Both Mulder and Scully were surprised that he had let them live. "What do you think happened to Logan?" Scully asked

" He's probably being interrogated. Pretty harshly, at that. I heard a loud crash down the hall yesterday and alot of yelling. I think that was the interrogation room." Mulder replied "But I wonder why they haven't interrogated us yet?"

"Because we don't know anything, and they know it." Scully answered "Everything that we knew was on that sheet that Lydecker has."

"True." Mulder said, their conversation was cut short when the door opened and Lydecker entered.

"I was wondering when you two would find out about our little operation. I've been following your work on the X-Files very carefully, but I never saw this one coming." he said

"Why didn't you kill us?" Mulder asked

"I don't need too. No one will believe you, even if you do tell them. Like the aliens and goverment conspiracies. Because of that, I can actually let you go. Kursh will be here tomarrow morning to arrest you for hacking into goverment files." he replied

"That bastard." Mulder muttered

Down the hall, in the interrogation room, Logan was being interrogated. But it was really like the interrogater yelling at a rock, because Logan wasn't saying a word. Although, he doubted that he could say a word even if he wanted to, his face hurt like hell and was a mass of bruises and dried blood. After one question, the guard hit Logan so hard, the chair tipped over. No one bothered to pick it up. Everytime they asked him a question, the guard just kicked Logan in the ribcage. After about an hour of beatings, Logan still wasn't talking. Then Lydecker came in to see how the situation was. "Is he talking?" he asked the guard.

"He hasn't said a word since he got here." the guard replied

"I don't care what you have to do, but I want to know everything that he knows. He is the key to finding the rest of my kids." Lydecker said

Outside Manticore 1:00 am

Max, Zach, Zane, and Krit all jumped the fence, leaving Syl to cut the fence, and Cindy in the parked Hummer, down the street. Max and Krit found the interrogation room with no problems. They easily snapped the neck of the guard outside. When they entered the room Max was shocked at Logan's condition, he was unconsious, tied to the chair that was lying on the floor. His shirt was cut up and ripped and there was a fresh cut on his forhead, that hadn't stopped bleeding yet. She carefully untied him and started to patch up the cut on his head, when she heard gunfire. Zach and Zane had gotten into the infirmiry, but a soldier had walked in right after them and got off a few shots before Zach finished him off. Krit helped Max get Logan onto her shoulders, then they took off to the hole in the fence. They met up with Zach and Zane in the woods. Mulder and Scully were following them. All of them were persued by soldiers. "Go!" Zach told Max "Take Logan, and the other two. I'll provide cover fire." Zach, Zane and Krit each hid behind trees and shot at the soldiers coming behind them. They waited until Max got to the fence with the others to retreat. They all ran to the Hummer and Cindy sped down the road. Max laid Logan out on the backseat and sat next to him. She took his shirt off and used it as a bandage for his head, which was still bleeding. Occasionally he would talk in his sleep, most of the time it was "Max, help me please." Max would always reply

"I'm right here. It's going to be okay."

Cindy drove to the Cale's cabin with the help of Zach's directions. When they got there Max carried Logan into the cabin and Cindy, Mulder, and Scully followed them in. Zane, Zach, Krit, and Syl left for Canada. Max laid Logan down on the couch and just sat next to him. She was wondering what to do. Her first thought was to get him to a hospital, but that's probably what Lydecker would be expecting. So she just sat next to him. Scully came up behind her and put a hand on Max's shoulder. "I'm a doctor, let me take a look at him." She started by examining the cut on his forhead. "Get me a bucket of warm water to wash this out with." She told Mulder, who was standing behind her. "Cindy, see if you can find some rags to use as a bandage. His shirt is too bloody now." After she washed out the cut, she told Max "I think he'll probably have a concussion and he really should get stiches for that cut on his head, but untill then, just make shure he changes the bandages regularly. He also has a few broken ribs by the look of it."

"But he will wake up, right?" Max said somewhat relieved

"Probably tomarrow morning. But until he wakes up and we get him to a hospital, there's nothing we can do, except for bandage the head and set the bones in in ribcage."

"Thanks." Max said

"No problem." Scully said

"You should probably get some sleep. The master bedroom's your first door on your right, and the guest room is the next room over." Max said. After Mulder and Scully left the room, Cindy came up behind Max and said

"How're you doing, boo?"

"I'm excelent compared to him. Look at him lying there. He's got to be in so much pain. How could they have done that to him?" Max started to cry. Cindy gave her a hug.

"Don't worry, boo. He's gonna be fine. Scully said so, and she's a doctor."

"But now it's not safe for him to go back to his apartment, he has to move out of Seattle because Lydecker knows who he is." Max said.

"Don't worry. It'll all work out."

"Your right." Max said

"Now your talking sense. Original Cindy gonna go hit the sack. This mission thingy wore me out big time. See ya in the morning boo."

"See ya." Max sat down on the couch next to Logan and held his hand. "I'm sorry Logan. I should have never dragged you into this." She eventually fell asleep, still holding his hand. It did not take Logan until morning to wake up, he woke up about an hour after Max fell asleep. He didn't know how he got out or realize where he was, but he did notice Max lying next to him on the couch. As he fell back asleep, he knew that everything would work out for the best eventually.
