Chrono Crusade: Horns of Time


Chapter Thirteen: Inside The Facility


"We are rapidly entering the age of no privacy, where everyone is open to surveillance at all times; where there are no secrets from government." - William Orville Douglas


Inside the facility both teams had gone to their destinations. The place was obviously tight on security and therefore sheath was a must in a mission that this. Everyone knew about this and made every effort to avoid detection. As the three sisters made their way to the offices that were patrolled by two guards, Caitlyn radioed Joshua and Wolf.

Meanwhile, Joshua and Wolf had just gained access to the labs (they did this by knocking out the two guards) when Caitlyn radioed in.

"How goes things on your end?" she asked them.

Wolf radioed back, "Pretty good. How about you?"

"Two guards are patrolling the entrance where the offices are. How do you suppose we get in?"

"Just shoot them," Joshua replied over Wolf's radio.

Just then Ebony's voice came in, "Sister Azmaria said 'discreetly' and quietly. Shows what you know!"

"Is there a time when you ever shut up!" Joshua argued back.

"Enough you two!" Caitlyn shouted over the radio. The guards looked around.

"You almost gave away our position," Wolf cautioned her.

"Sorry. But the petty arguments between Ebony and Joshua are getting annoying. Anyways, any ideas?"

"You can try providing a distraction," Wolf advised her. "Try to lure one of the guards in one of the halls and dispatch of him."

"We'll try that, thanks. Caitlyn out."

Putting his radio away, Wolf looked at Joshua, "Shall we let ourselves in?"

"Isn't that the reason why the door is open?" Joshua jokingly asked.

"Your sarcasm isn't appreciated. Anyways, let's look what they got here." The two of them proceeded into the labs. Insides the labs there were vast amounts of tubes with green substances inside. Looking at the vast amounts of vials, equipment and technology while surrounded by white flooring and wallpaper, Joshua and Wolf took pictures of these things. It was soon apparent to them that the labs were empty.

"It looks like that these people have created technology that surpasses ours," Wolf inquired.

Joshua said agreeing, "You bet. Hey, take a look at this."

They both made their way to a room with two huge white doors.

"What now?" Joshua asked. Suddenly he heard footsteps that proceeded towards them.

"Quick, Wolf, we have to hide!" Joshua warned Wolf.

Looking confused, Wolf asked, "What's wrong?"

"I hear someone coming."

He looked around, "I don't hear anything."

"Just trust me!" Joshua grabbed Wolf's arm and hid behind a huge machine. Moments later two guards accompanying the same white haired man appeared at the scene.

"Who is it?" Wolf asked.

"Shhh, hide will ya!" Joshua whispered shoving Wolf's head down.

The white haired man looked around. "Is there something wrong, sir?" one of the guards asked.

"So he's here," the white haired man mumbled. "No, nothing is wrong." He came up to the control panel which was located beside the doors. He punched in some numbers and the doors automatically opened. As the men entered inside and as the door closed, Joshua and Wolf rushed for the door and nearly missing it. The realized that they made it inside.

Back with the sisters, Ebony, Caitlyn and Abigail had just made it to the control room. The place was littered with guards.

"What do we do?" Abigail asked.

"I have just the thing," Ebony pulled out a metal ball and threw it at the center of the room. Soon the place began to flood with white mist. Utter chaos was present for a few minutes before everyone in the room became unconscious.

"Good work," Caitlyn commended Ebony, "you two drag those bodies and bind them up with rope or something. I'll look at the computer files they have here."

"Understood," they answered simultaneously. As they sisters did this, Caitlyn looked at the files. As she went through the files, she had made a discovery and as she made this discovery she gasped, "This can't be right."

"What can't be right?" Ebony asked as she re-entered the room.

"This," Caitlyn moved so both girls could see the screen. On the screen was a list of all members of the order from order of rank.

Ebony's mouth dropped, "Holy sh-"

Abigail quickly intervened, "This list dates back to the 1920's"

"No kidding. Look, there's our names."

Abigail asked, "But why does a corporation have the names of order members?"

"Guys," Ebony pointed to a window, "you won't believe what's happening down there…" The girls approached the window and didn't believe what they saw.


What did they see? What will they do? So may questions so little time. Anyways please R&R.
