Logan and Max drove up to the outskirts of a forest around Manticore.
Already waiting for them was Krit, Syl, Zack and Alec. Logan called Alec up
earlier. As they drove up so did another car. Everyone was a little
paranoid at this point so the X5's took a fighting stance and Lydecker
produced a gun.
"Chill out guys." Logan walked up to the car and said something through the window to the person behind the wheel. He backed away and out of the car stepped Asha. Alec immediately relaxed and waltzed up to her.
"Hey Asha. What is your fine little self doing out here in the woods?" Asha looked at the ground and made a small smirk.
"If you weren't a friend of Logan's I would have to kill you." She looked past him to the rest of the X5's. "I am also sorry for them. Must be unfortunate and kind of degrading to know you are related to one such as yourself."
"Ouch."
"Alec. Get in my way and I'll mow you down."
"Your pretty when your angry did you know that?"
"Logan are you sure I can't like shot him in his foot or something? Nothing fatal I promise." Logan chuckled.
"Not yet. Maybe later." She sighed.
"Fine." Krit finally broke in.
"What is she doing here?" Logan looked up at him to see an obvious group of people untrustworthy of this new girl. Even Lydecker didn't loosen his grip on his gun.
"This is Asha. Chill out. She knows all about the deal. I had her bring some…toys. I know you said you got some stuff but I decided we might need something with a little extra….kick." Asha smiled. They walked behind her car and popped the trunk.
"Damn. Who did you do to get this stuff?" Alec asked Asha as he gazed on all types of mini guns, explosives, and other such weaponry. Syl smacked him in the head.
"Ow! What was that for?"
"Don't be an ass hole." Her and her brothers had been hanging out with Alec for about 45 minutes. They knew his deal and how he was Ben's clone. He became the inefficient creepy brother to them. He was throwing his smart- ass comments the entire time and he usually ended up getting smacked or some kind of verbal abuse.
"Why do you guys keep hitting me?" Zack answered this one.
"Don't give us reason to." Logan smiled.
"Wow and I thought you guys wouldn't get a long." He got death glares for that one. The weapons were quickly distributed. Between the stuff the X5's and Asha got the entire group was very well equipped. Logan persuaded Max to take a handgun even though she was sure she wouldn't use it. Logan didn't nee one but he stuck one in the back off his pants just in case. Soon a plan was set up. They would proceed to the basement and plant the bombs near a bunch of propane tanks, which would set a reaction through the building because there are so many flammable materials it, would burn to the ground. Alec was confident this would be a breeze and Logan secretly thought it wouldn't be to hard considering Lydecker found out most units were moved with Renfro. He didn't know where they went but that they were checked out of the facility. Syl and Krit would be prowling outside taking down the guards one by one and keeping a look out. Alec was paired up with Asha to get to the control room and prevent any one from pushing the alarm and so they were the only ones in control of the monitors so they could keep a look out. Asha was less than thrilled. Lydecker insisted Logan and him go together because he figured he had all the codes and Logan had the most strength but Deck didn't say it out loud. Max insisted she go with Logan.
Krit and Syl left 5 minutes before Alec and Asha headed in and then finally the threesome stealthily moved in. Asha and Alec had taken out 5 guys before they reached outside the control room.
"I'll go in ahead of you."
"What happened to ladies first?"
"I just think I am more qualified for this part. Plus I wouldn't want a bullet to land up somewhere on your beautiful body."
"I can't tell if your interested or not." She shot at him sarcastically.
"Just protecting my investment." A man came around the corner and before Alec made a move Asha bashed the guy's front teeth in with the butt of her gun.
"Yeah well invest somewhere else." Alec made a note to himself, 'Don't piss off Asha.'
"We'll go in together."
"Sure. On three. One..two…THREE!" They burst into the control room where all the monitors were and about 6 guys. Asha shot 2 down while Alec punched and kicked two unconscious. One tried to come up behind Asha and one tried to come up behind Alec. Simultaneously they shouted.
"Look out." Asha shot the guy behind Alec and he shot the guy over her shoulder.
"Well that was easy." Alec was perplexed.
"That seemed to easy."
"Manticore may not be big and bad as you think."
"Now who is underestimating? Anyways you ok?" she looked at him unbelieving.
"I'm fine."
"Ok just checking. Let's go check up on our comrades." Alec moved towards the monitors. Asha stood wondering. 'I suppose it is kind of sweet he cares. Even if he is an asshole he is a cute one.' Alec turned towards her.
"You coming?"
"Yeah." She walked up next to him to scope out the scene.
Lydecker had gotten through 5 gates without any problems. Logan and Max had to take down at least 15 guys. They finally reached the elevator that lead to the basement.
"That was to easy." Lydecker was paranoid at this. There was suddenly a crackling on the COM and they could here Asha's voice.
"Guys…we….prob…ge..out…"
"Why is it breaking up like that?" Logan asked.
"Fed doesn't go well through these elevators. When we get to the bottom it will be fine." Logan got on the COM.
"Asha come back. What was it?" Again there was static.
"Down…baseme…X….Renfro…out…" Logan listened intently.
"She said Renfro didn't she." Logan asked alarmed. Lydecker was nervous now and cocked his gun. Logan looked at Max who didn't know what to expect. The elevator was almost to the bottom.
"Max get out your gun." He ordered softly. He pulled out his own and she didn't argue. The elevator would come to the bottom any second.
Ding. The elevator doors slid open.
A/N AHAHA I know exactly what will happen next. Man those of you reading along have no problem but when people look at his fic when it is done and they see it has like 35 chapters or something they will be like 'screw that!' Oh well. Cliffhanger. Hope ya like. Am I doing well in the A/A area?
"Chill out guys." Logan walked up to the car and said something through the window to the person behind the wheel. He backed away and out of the car stepped Asha. Alec immediately relaxed and waltzed up to her.
