- Chapter Twenty Seven -

Walking out of the dungeon, Callisto was the first to speak up, "Flynn said the boss room is at the top of the north tower."

"How far away is that?" Asked Freya.

"About an hour walk." Replied Thor. "We'll get there about 10 minutes after them."

"A lot can happen in 10 minutes." Said Thad. "You think we'll make it?"

Everyone shook their heads in disagreement. Parks laughed, "I've got half a mind to go home. Fuck those guys."

"They WILL lose people." I replied. Turning to Thor and Callisto I ask, "Did either of y'all get a map from Flynn?"

"Yeah, I'll send it to you." Thor said, opening his menu.

The next few minutes of walking were spent discussing what to do when we arrive. The problem is, we don't know what the situation will be when we get there. Will they have it handled? Will they all die before we reach them?

This puts a major hole in our plans. We reluctantly decide to leave the strategizing for after we know the situation.

About halfway there we hear someone calling from further up the path.

"Hey mang! Ju in a hurry?"

We all turn to see George approaching. "Looks like ju won the raid." He said with a smile.

After seeing a few scowls still emanating on some of our faces, the smile instantly left his face.

"George!" Thad yelled. "You got any plans?"

He looked around frantically for a moment until his eyes met Freya's.

"Nah mang, what ju have in mind?" He replied, still holding eye contact with her.

Thad replied, "They found the boss room."

George broke eye contact with Freya and spun to face Thad. "Ju serious!?" He yelled.

"Yeah, and the fucks are starting without us!" Parks yelled back.

George's face turned into a scowl. He looked back at Freya again and said, "I think I'll tag along."
