I'm seriously on a roll with this story. Another chapter published, although, it's not the same length and it doesn't have any time flops in it. (Trust me, it's REALLY short for me. But this chapter really didn't need to be all that long.)

And to those that liked the last ones, tell me how you like this one.

Thank you to the loyal of the loyal who came back and read!

Chapter 2

The Catwalk of Trust

The unanswerable question, "Why?"; the question that is an answer in itself, "Why not?" Perhaps, I am speaking old philosophy to this world. Nothing but a sour reminder of the past, or perhaps an anachronism in and of itself.

Maybe that's why I accepted their offer to help them with their deed. I wasn't told of everything that they would do, but who would trust a person like me with that information

But, they were more than happy to accept the information I gave them about the security web near the fences. And even happier still, when they heard that the system was being overhauled tonight. However, not it's structure, but the operating system.

Even as I await my death here in this doomed facility, I couldn't be happier Call it insanity, if you like. But I feel that deep down, these people will amount to something in the grand scheme of the world.

They should be rushing past the outer perimeter to the points where I left some weapons for them to use, any moment now. "It's about time," I muttered to myself. I turned around to my laptop and proceeded to unlock the corridors to the hangar and the cells.

Two minutes had passed, "Surely, they must have gotten to their targets by now. Now to sit and await death. The guards will probably come soon."

Sure enough, the door burst open. Three heavily armed guards had run into my domicile and were pointing their assault weapons at me.

I put my hands behind my head; I had already submitted myself to this fate. Death was the only option for a traitor. This had been made clear ever since the Gekko State rebelled.

"Who's there? Come out or I'll shoot," yelled the guard on the right. The one behind me turned to face the same direction, but they could not see anything in the darkened base corridors nor in the plaza that we were entering. They were scanning the plaza for any signs of opposing forces, not that it mattered, they only looked along the horizontal axis of sight. When the third guard looked up to an adjacent roof, two silhouettes dropped down from the roofs.

The first knocked down the two guards while coming down, the last one had his neck snapped by the other silhouette.

"You're..." I said.

"We're the people come to save your ass. Now, follow us, hurry," The first one said. There was no time to argue or ask why they had come. I simply followed them.

Thank you for reading. Please, do me a favor and review.

Until next time, cya all.
