A WEEK LATER
The cell door opened and a guard came in. "Come with me," he said. "You can leave now Guevara."
He stood up and followed the guard out and into the main building.
"Rick!" cried a woman.
"Lily!" exclaimed Rick, rushing towards her and took her into a crushing embrace. "Lily, don't say anything until we leave. Pretend you don't care and are glad that we are able to leave. I'll explain later," he whispered to her.
"What?"
"Just trust me."
The guards came up to them and led them to the door where Lydecker was standing. "You are free to go now," he said, smiling unfeelingly. "Don't look so angry Mrs. Guevara. You daughter is in great hands."
Rick led her past Lydecker quickly and out the door and into the cab, which took them to them to a hotel.

MEANWHILE BACK AT MANTICORE...
"Listen up everyone! Soldiers, get the equipment ready for the first training and make sure that the electricians check and double-checked all of the machines. We don't want anything to go wrong. Nurses, bring the X- 5's to the training room at 1pm sharp and pick them up at 7pm and don't be late. Make sure they are as ready as can be for training. From the time they are in the classroom to the time they leave, you can do as you like, but be prepared for when they come back. Understood!" ordered Lydecker.
"Yes, sir!" they all answered and left to do their job.

AT THE HOTEL
The Guevaras arrived at the hotel. No words were spoken during the whole trip there. They quickly got a room and went to it.
"We should rest here for tonight. You're probably exhausted," said Rick.
"How could you? How could you let them take our daughter without a fight or a word against it? Don't you care about her?" asked Lily crying softly.
"Oh, honey I do care about her it's just that we wouldn't have gotten a chance to get her back if we just threatened them or fought against them. They'll over power us and we're outnumbered. We might even get killed."
"That's it huh? Just because of that we can't even try? She's our baby! I can't believe you didn't even try to get her out."
"Just let me explain. I only did what I did and told you to not fight because last week a nurse came into my cell and told me that if we wanted to get our daughter back, to not resist and leave peacefully."
"And you believed her!" Lily interrupted. "She probably just told you that so we wouldn't cause a problem for them! You were tricked Rick!"
"Wait! I'm not done yet. I really think she was trying to help us and now that I think of it, it was probably a good idea not to cause a scene because if we do want to get her back, they'll probably won't expect us to do anything if we were calm. Another reason to why I think she's helping us is that she gave me a number to call once we got out of there. Do you really think Lily, that if she really didn't want to help us that she'd actually do that? And when I saw her, I felt that I could trust her."
"Do you think that we're going to get our daughter back?" Lily said sadly.
"Don't worry. We'll get her back someday," answered Rick giving his wife a hug.
"When are we going to call? What's suppose to happen when we call the number?"
"We'll call tomorrow, but I'm not really sure about what's going to happen. Nurse Rolland only told me to call it if we wanted to get our daughter out and that we'll find out more about her when we do. Now get some rest. We need some strength for tomorrow," said Rick kissing his wife on the forehead.
"I'm glad you're okay, Rick. I love you."
"I love you too."
They both laid down and went to sleep.
