Chapter 25: The Hidden Lair
Jake maneuvered carefully on the catwalk. The height seemed to be about four stories and he didn't want to fall over the railing. He went through the single, automatic opening and closing door at the end. He was in a dimly lit hallway. He turned to the right and went through the only other door he saw. It looked like a small guest room with a bed and a small television. "Who could of slept here?" he questioned himself.
(With Dave...)
Dave looked around the room he was standing in. It looked like a secretary's room. A computer was showing screens getting feeds from cameras. He saw an ID on the desk. He walked over to it and picked it up. He gave a small gasp. It belonged to Councilor Chang. He put it in his pocket and left through the other door. He closed it and saw B1 written on the wall. "What is this place?" he asked out loud, realizing he was on a catwalk a few stories up.
(With Rose...)
"Thorn, what floor are we on?" Huntsman asked. Before Rose could answer, Karalyn answered him, "We are on B2." Rose gave a small growl. The Huntsclan member who was with them put a hand on her shoulder in comfort. She took it off gently. "Sorry, but I have a boyfriend," she told the person who according to Huntsman was new.
(With Laoshi...)
Laoshi walked around looking for Haley. She got lost when she crawled through a small hole to see what was on the other side. Then he thought about Dave. 'I hope the young one is not dead,' he thought. He was worried about all of them. He knew Rose was a good person who was trying to join the good side, Jake was powerful but Laoshi worried about his emotions for Rose controlling his judgments, Haley was too young to do something like this, and Dave was powerful as well but he worried about what connection he had to the Dark Dragon.
(With Haley...)
Haley walked through the hallway with a scared look on her face. She hoped her dragon powers wouldn't fail her when she needed them. Jake, Laoshi, and Haley weren't in their dragon forms. She saw a sign on the wall that said B2. She then ran into someone and gave a gasp when she saw that the person was wearing a Huntsclan uniform.
