MegaMan Battle Network – Time
Chapter 3 – Escape
WBuilder: Lets just say that Scyler lost but has a backup plan.
As Sarah listened she heard the noise come from the computer they had set up, it was an insistent beeping noise slowly getting faster, she put her ear to the computer and listened for a moment as her eyes widened.
"Everyone out!" yelled Sarah, "There's a bomb in the computer!"
The small staff of technicians in the room ran from the room, Mr. Famous, Dr. Hikari, Lan, Dex, Chaud, Mayl, Yai and Sarah followed as the bomb blew just as Sarah left.
It wasn't just that bomb, a carefully placed load had been set allowing few routes of escape.
"Anyone else in the building?" said Sarah to Mr. Famous as they stood in a small area surrounded by flame.
"No," said Mr. Famous shaking his head, "We evacuated just in case the electronic locks all got frozen in the locked position."
"Right," said Sarah, "Just us then, where's the nearest fire extinguisher?"
Mr. Famous pointed through the flames. "There," he said, "There's one on that wall."
"Fire blanket too?" asked Sarah.
"Yes," said Mr. Famous.
"Right," said Sarah, "Wait here."
"What?" said Mr. Famous in shock watching Sarah dive through the flames. Moments later they heard the sound of the fire extinguisher as Sarah used it to make a path in the flame. She had wrapped the fire blanket around her and stood holding the fire extinguisher, pieces of the skin on her face had burnt off revealing the metallic skeleton underneath.
"Sometimes it helps not being human," said Sarah, she threw the fire extinguisher to Dex who caught it, "Think you can take the lead Dex? I'd do it but I got a little damaged and would prefer to stay back"
"Ok," said Dex who led the way out followed by the group, Mr. Famous stayed behind Dex whilst Dr. Hikari and Lan helped the three girls out at the back.
"How is it?" whispered Dr. Hikari.
"Mainly my appearance" said Sarah, "Nothing that can't be fixed."
The group made its way through the building, the fire escapes could be access due to the flames and the heat. They made there way through when…
"Yai!" yelled Sarah pulling her back as one of the building supports fell, whilst Yai remained safe the support had become so wedged in that not even Sarah could move it effectively cutting the two girls off from the rest of the group.
"Go on out!" yelled Sarah, "Yai and me will make our way back to the last fire exit!"
"Are you sure?" yelled Mr. Famous.
"Positive!" yelled Sarah back, "Now go!"
The group left and Sarah turned to Yai.
"Let's go Yai," said Sarah.
"No," said Yai, "I'm not going anywhere with you."
"Why not?" said Sarah.
"I don't trust you," said Yai.
