****************************************************************
Inside the cabin there were a bunch of people around busily and talking. There must be about over 50 people there. They took no notice of the Guevaras or Drake.
"I can't believe that all these people are parents of X-5's!" said Lily.
Drake replied with a chuckle, "They aren't. Only 22 of us are, the rest are friends or relatives who want to help. There are only 12 X-5's anyway!"
"Oh."
"What's going on around here anyway?" asked Rick.
"Looks like a break. Almost everyone's in here. We're all preparing for the attack and making plans, as you know. We're almost done with it and need to perfect it. You also need to be trained."
As he talked, he led them through the halls and stopped at the door. "This is your room. In there you'll find a board above the table. It tells you what you're going to do for the next few weeks with the training. Other than the training times, you can do as you like, eat when you want, talk, practice things, and etc. This is only for these first weeks until you're use to everything. Train hard Rick and Lily. We don't want anything to go wrong when we do this. We expect to attack in three months or less. The sooner you're trained well, the sooner we can go through with the attack. Now, if you need anything, just ask around. Everyone here can help you. We all work together in this. I need to get going now. I want to see how far everyone else got with the weapons and plans."
"Thanks. Um, Drake, you seem to be doing a lot and are very busy. Why don't you rest a while?"
"I can't. I have to do something. I just can't stay still and wait around. It gives me too much time to think about what happened. This way I know that there's hope and that we might be able to get what we lost back. A lot of people here feel the same way too."
"You don't have to worry about us. We're going to work really hard at the trainings so that we'd be able to get all of our children back as soon as we can. Maybe sooner than planned too," said Rick.
"Good, the sooner we get them out, the better," he said and left.

AS TIME PASSES AT THE CABIN
During the next few weeks at the cabin, the Guevaras met all of the other people there who were to help with the attack. They trained hard everyday during their training sessions and afterward. They helped with the final touches of the plan and finally, they were finished.
Now they went over every aspect of the plan of guarding, sneakiness, protection, retrieval, communications between everyone, attacks (if need be), and who was to do what. Everyone was assigned a job. The Guevaras were assigned to be on the retrieval team along with six others. The rest will stand watch, work the computers for the break-in and watch, go in to set bombs all around Manticore, destroy their studies, and take out the soldiers there and Lydecker. Ms. Rolland will help with the retrieval and help with more inside reports and information.
"Everyone knows the plan now and what they're suppose to do," said Drake. "Pack what we need in the cars, now and get some rest. Last preparations are tomorrow morning, then we set off for Gillette. Secure your locations there and wait until 10:00pm to strike. Keep radio contact and when we go in, only contact when you have succeeded your mission or need backup. The place blows at exactly 10:30pm if the children are out or when all has reported safely in. Everyone understand?"
A bunch of yeses echoed in room.
"Good. The attack on Manticore is now on!"
Loud commotions and excited sounds followed that exclamation. Everyone was anxious for what's going to happen the next day.
***************************************************************
This probably sucked, but I had to tell how the Guevaras got settled and what they did at the base but didn't want to write about every single day they were there until the attack because that will probably bore you even more!
