"I thought they were all dead," Rupert whispered.
"So did I," Aya replied.
"May I suggest we leave," Logan whispered. They left where the others exited.
"To the elevator hall," Rupert directed. Surely enough it was guarded by a golem. They ducked out of sight before it saw them. "To the stairwell," Rupert now ordered. Naturally, it was guarded by another golem. They rushed into the nearest office, not sure if it saw them.
Aya went over to the phone on the desk... dead. "Damn it, they cut the lines," she announced.
"This is Johnson's office," Rupert said in thought. "Didn't he always have a cell-phone in his jacket." Logan reached into a jacket hanging on a hall tree. He pulled out a cell and signaled he had it. "I'll call the Swat," Rupert said.
"Only enough juice for one brief call," Logan pointed out.
"The Swat is already here," Aya stated. "They can't handle these guys, remember."
"Who else do we call."
"The military," Aya suggested. Rupert and Aya argued while Logan decided to make a phone call. They both heard the phone beep when he was done. "Who the hell did you call?"
"My mechanic," Logan replied.
Rupert was pissed. "How in the hell is a car junkie gonna help us." The shouting was not a good idea. In an instant a golem knocked the door down. Rupert fired all six rounds and Aya her only clip. The golem collapsed to the ground. Another golem appeared right behind it.
Logan pounced before Aya could stop him. After a tackle he jammed the saber into its throat. He struggled to hold it down as Rupert and Aya left the room. He hopped up and followed them down the stairwell.
They got to the second floor entrance. It flew open and hit Logan, separating Aya and Rupert between another golem soldier. "Aya climb!" Rupert yelled. She hesitated because of Logan was at the feet of the golem, unconscious. Then she saw it move towards her.
She raced up the stairs until there were no more steps. She was on the catwalk around the top of the building. She started to take a stroll. When there was no more catwalk, she looked down. There were many lights flashing. She looked up when she got nauseous from the height. She walked back around the corner and saw a yet another golem in the distant. She turned back against the wall. Footsteps were coming. She was frozen with fright and unarmed.
