Chapter 4
*Alex's Private Room*
"Go Xander!" Alex said when Xander's car stopped in front of a hidden building. "I know he isn't gonna get himself killed."
"Are you sure?" Nikolai asked.
"C'mon, you guys can get along, you just need to try." Alex said. "Now shut up, he's going through the main entrance."
Just as Xander began to walk through the door, the camera image went fuzzy, and then the signal was blocked. All they had was audio.
"Shit." Alex said, grabbing the communicator to Xander's earpiece. "Xander, we just lost visual. Either you're too far away, or they have something to block it. Cough twice if you caught that."
Two coughs came over the audio.
"All right." Alex said. "Now you're gonna have to make a mental note of everything. Cough again if you think you can."
Another cough.
"Good." Alex said. "Be careful, Xander. Don't get yourself killed."
*Devin's Stronghold*
Xander wanted to say that there was no way in hell he was gonna get himself killed. But he also knew that would give him away in an instant. He let himself be shown through a large hall on the right side of the main entrance way. Then they opened a door at the very end of the hall.
"In." The man with the Russian accent said.
Xander walked in slowly. There was a desk with a leather chair behind it, and a man standing by a large window. The man turned around to show a face that looked like it wasn't real.
"So. You must be Xander Cage, the stuntman." He said.
"Well, it's stunt devil, but I'm not gonna worry about that." Xander said.
"My name is Devin." He said. Xander thought that his voice sounded freakishly familiar. "I hear you have some information."
"Yeah." Xander replied.
"Well, if I like what information you have, then I'll invite you and only you're close family and friends into my family." Devin said. "So talk."
"Okay." Xander said. "My little sister is a pretty good hacker. She was hacking into a ton of places because of a rumor about what you were doing, and she found a way into some UN information. They know about your plan to destroy all the life on earth, and then repopulate it. They're going to come after you soon. Within the next week."
"Really." Devin said. "I enjoy that information. But I'm wondering if this isn't just some feeble attempt to save you and your sister."
"I'm not that crazy." Xander said. "Besides, if I didn't bring you this information, your plan might not happen."
"I suppose that's true." Devin said. "I'll tell you what. You and your sister can come to a party here tomorrow night. Only those who are going to be saved are invited."
"Can my sister's boyfriend come too?" Xander asked, thinking: I may hate the asshole, but my sister doesn't.
"Well, are they planning on getting married?" Devin asked.
"As far as I know." Xander replied. "And if he doesn't, I'll kill him with my bare hands."
"That works." Devin said. "Now leave. I'll see you tomorrow."
Xander turned to leave, but Devin said something else to him.
"Be sure to watch you're back, Xander." He said. "You never know what kind of madman I might have allowed to be saved."
"I'll remember that." Xander said as he walked out the door.
As soon as he was outside the stronghold, he was blindfolded again. As he was being taken back to Alex's club he received a message over audio from Alex saying that they had visual right when he left the stronghold. Meaning that Devin had a special device to counter their visual aid.
*After Xander got back*
"I think Devin took the information too easily." Alex said. "It seemed like he already planned on us."
"Well I got you guys in." Xander said. "We'll just have to go in there prepared, and if something goes wrong, we kick Devin's ass!"
"We all know that's how you want this done, but it won't work." Alex stated. "Devin isn't stupid. Either he really wants us to live, or he knows who we're working for and wants us dead."
"Besides, I doubt Devin will go without a ton of guards searching every guest that attends." Nikolai said. "We have to think about this carefully."
"Did Alex put you in charge?" Xander asked.
"Okay, you guys can get along." Alex said. "You've got to."
"Fine." Xander and Nikolai said.
"Alright." Alex said. "We'll go to the party and keep our eyes looking for anything strange. If something weird happens, we get out. Agreed?"
Xander and Nikolai nodded. Now all they had to do was not get caught.
