Here's the next chapter! Anyway, enjoy!
Inside the building, as we made it to the vents, I was on Nadine's shoulders as Phoebe was on my shoulders as Phoebe was opening up the air vents and going inside.
"Okay, I'm in the vents." Phoebe nodded. "Go to that door on this side and wait until I unlock it."
"Right." I nodded as I got off of Phoebe's shoulders. "Good luck in there."
Phoebe nodded as her face disappeared from view. Me and Nadine nodded as we hopped a couple white tiles over to the door. Three minutes and one audible click later, Phoebe was opening the door as she gave a smile.
"Good show, Phoebe!" Nadine smiled as we went in. "Well, we're in the next room, what now?"
"Well... Phoebe said as she pointed to a grid of lasers going around and a small alarm panel on the other side. "We just have to get past those lasers and turn off the alarm systems so that we can reach the next room... fortunately, there's a computer over there..."
"Okay, sweet!" I smiled as Phoebe sat down. "Let's see how you work a computer!"
Phoebe nodded as she started typing it in... as we heard something turned off. "The spotlights are offline..."
A couple seconds later, we saw the lasers being turned off. "There goes the laser security system, now to open the room to the next door."
Phoebe nodded as she typed on the computer and the next door opened up. Phoebe smiled. "Presto, all clear."
"Not so bad!" Nadine smiled.
"True, but just so we're doing good..." Phoebe turned on the intercom as she coughed and did some bad impression of Scheck. "Attention, all guards! This is Scheck speaking. We're... um, installing some new hardware into our new security system, so, uh, don't be alarmed if some spotlights and lasers get turned off for a while. Thank you all, you're all doing a good job."
Phoebe nodded as she got up. "Okay, let's get to the next room..."
Me and Nadine nodded as we started to head inside.
Once inside, me, Phoebe and Nadine were pretty shocked as we suddenly noticed we were in a forest.
"What the... there's a forest in Future Tech?" I asked in shock.
"More like an illusion." Nadine said as she put her hand through a random tree... as the tree started fizzling a bit. "See?"
"Amazing!" Phoebe squeaked. "This is beyond technological standards! Oh, if only I brought my camera!"
"I have my camera phone." I said as I handed it to Phoebe.
Phoebe nodded as she started taking pictures with the camera phone. After a few moments, me, Nadine and Phoebe were looking at the instructions.
"Now, what do we have to do?" I asked as Nadine looked at the instructions.
"Well, according to the blueprints, in order to unlock this room, we need to put three items next to the door we're about to exit out of. Not two, not four, three!" Nadine said as she looked around. "Apparently, there are three different pathways to take with this one..."
"Okay, I think I know how we can get this done..." Phoebe said as she pointed over to the three paths. "We'll each take one path. We'll meet each other halfway, and get through the door. We'll get it in no time at all!"
I smiled as me and Nadine both nodded. "All right! I'll take the left path!"
"I'll go down to the right path." Phoebe agreed.
"And I'll go for the one in the middle!" Nadine said as we nodded.
"Good luck, girls!" I said as all three of us went our separate ways.
As I made the journey down the path, I figured this would be a good time to call Arnold and our friends to see how he's getting along. I picked up my phone and dialed his cell... after two rings, I heard Lila's voice. "Hello?"
"Hey, Lila, it's me!" I said. "How are you guys doing?"
"We're wearing spy gear, and we're currently on our way to getting Nick's key. But listen, you missed a lot! I don't know how, but Lorenzo's mom, she put two and two together!" Lila whispered.
"Oh no. How?" I asked.
"Well, you should have seen it. Lorenzo told off his own mom saying that he doesn't care if I was... poor beyond relief, he thought I was cute! The next thing we knew, we walked right off, leaving Lorenzo's mom stupefied!" Lila said. "Anyway, long story short, Lorenzo's mom, and all the other boys now know me and Lorenzo are currently dating. Tucker and Gerald are fine with it, Arnold you already know is okay with it... it'll be a little time now before that news reaches the communities."
"Sheesh..." I paused. "What does that mean?"
"It means either confess to you-know-who now or the upper class may consider going to Congress." Lila whispered.
"...You think it's that bad, huh?" I asked.
"Maybe I'm overreacting a little... but I'm just afraid they'll take Lorenzo and move out by the time we're through with this..." Lila sighed.
I just shook my head. "Lila, listen... remember what I said... no matter what happens... we support you. We all do."
I heard Lila sighing. "Thanks, Rhonda..."
"No problem. Where are the boys?" I asked.
"At Nick Vermelli's house. You didn't miss much. We went to get some spy gear from a girl named Bridget. Don't tell Phoebe, but she kissed Gerald on the cheek before we left." Lila explained.
"I'll make note of it." I nodded.
"Next, we had to enter inside a bar in disguise... luckily, Tucker and Lorenzo handled that part, because Arnold's head... is pretty recognizable from every angle." Lila said.
"What makes you say that?" I asked, curiously.
"Do you know any OTHER people that have heads as unique as theirs? Aside from Arnie and maybe some members of Arnold's family tree?" Lila asked.
I chuckled a bit. "I can't imagine, no."
"Well, we're on our way to getting the key now. Arnold's on a rope and... yeah, there we go, we got the key! You want us to meet you girls over at the entrance and we can work from there?" Lila asked.
"Hold off on that for a moment." I said. "Me, Nadine and Phoebe are currently inside Future Tech, doing a little reconnaissance of our own."
"Oh, did you get the key from Sharlene?" Lila asked.
"More or less. In fact, meet us outside the building, hopefully we'll have the deed with us! If we're not out, wait ten minutes. If we still haven't come out, get in with the key on your end unless I decide to call." I instructed.
"Sure, Rhonda, we can do that!" Lila said. "You can count on us!"
"Great, see you then!" I said as I hung up the phone. By that time, I had already reached my destination... which was a little pedestal where a floating shard was at.
I paused as I touched the shard a bit. I smirked a bit as I grabbed the shard... as I started shaking, muttering, "Wh-wh-whoa, this p-p-puppy has some v-v-v-vibration to it. R-r-r-really puts a sm-sm-smile on your f-f-f-face!"
Pretty soon, as I kept walking past, I ran right into Nadine, who I was surprised to see.
"Guess two of these paths must link, huh?" Nadine asked as we kept walking.
"Yeah. Anyway, Arnold and his gang got the key." I explained as we kept walking.
"Great!" Nadine said. "Hopefully, we'll meet Curly in his own way and we'll get that deed!"
I nodded as the two of us continued walking until we reached a machine. Nadine smiled as she walked towards the machine, noticing the small gear. Nadine smiled as she took the gear out. "I bet that's the prize. Nobody'll miss this small gear."
Nadine smiled as she turned around and started to walk away from the machine. "Like candy from a baby."
I was about to say something, but then I stared stunned as I saw the machine stopped working as it just fell right apart, piece by piece. I stared at it, shocked.
"No one will EVER know we were here." Nadine smiled as she walked right past me.
I was about to yell at her... when I noticed a big gear rolling by me. It was then I decided to say nothing.
Around that time, as me and Nadine kept walking and discussing other plans when we came across Phoebe as she was getting a huge lens glass from a big telescope that was standing there.
"Hey girls, give me a hand, would you?" Phoebe asked.
Nadine and I nodded as I held the telescope in place as Nadine cracked her knuckles a bit... then she came in and pulled the lens off.
Phoebe smiled. "Thanks!"
"No trouble!" Nadine nodded as she gave the lens to Phoebe. "We got all the parts!"
"Great! And there's the door over there!" I smiled as we saw the three holes meant for the door. "Let's get these items in!"
As we put the items in, we watched as the door was opening up. At that time, I heard a slight rustle. I turned quickly to see another bush moving. I blinked in suspicion. So whoever was watching us is following us as well... or maybe it's my paranoia talking.
"Okay, next level, we are in!" Phoebe smiled as the three of us ran in.
Upon entering, I noticed a lot of scientific areas as Phoebe was looking around. "Must be the scientific lab. I didn't think Future Tech would be able to have a science lab!"
"I thought they were a construction place! I mean, why do they have scientific labs?" I asked as Nadine was looking inside a container... and she just stood there as she was backing away.
"Yeah, why would they have a laboratory... unless it's for..." Phoebe started before Nadine turned our heads over to what she was looking inside the container... and our eyes widened in shock.
Inside the containment unit looked to be... a baby dinosaur of some type.
We remained speechless as we just looked at it... I almost didn't notice Curly and Caroline walking in and looking inside the container with us. The baby dinosaur gave a sniff and gave a small roar as it ate some nearby grass.
"You did it. You crazy little bitch, you did it." Caroline muttered.
"Dear Marcie... sweet merciful Marcie..." Curly said speechless.
"It's so beautiful... just so beautiful..." Nadine said in amazement.
"No words... no words... they actually created a life..." Phoebe smiled.
I looked inside as the dinosaur showed its' teeth.
I gave a warm smile. "Dinosaurs exist... they do exist..."
"So, you got the key, huh?" I asked as we went out of the science lab and got to the safe.
"Yeah! Let me tell you, it wasn't easy getting around the guards, but we got it!" Curly said as he held the key.
"Welcome... Caroline." Nadine raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"Don't get used to my appearance. I'm here for the same reason as you. Let's just get the deed and get out of here..." Caroline said as she turned the key to the safe... until we heard footsteps.
"Someone's coming! Quick! Hide!" I whispered as we hid carefully. We peeked out to see that Scheck was walking out, holding a cell phone in his hand.
"How could you have lost that key!" Scheck growled. "You THINK the football-headed kid took it? How? Asleep? Oh, I oughta punch you into next week! Great! Now I have to get my secretary's key! Don't you worry, I'll be ready for him!"
Scheck then hung up the phone as he started walking off. As soon as the coast was clear, Nadine yelped. "We don't have much time! Let's get that door unlocked quick!"
Caroline nodded as she turned the lock... and opened the door...
That was when the body of Scheck came plopping down, right at the door.
"What the- Scheck?" The girls, Curly and I looked down in shock as we looked at the door Scheck had just exited from... and the Scheck that just came in... that was when we examined Scheck and noticed...
A gun shot to his head... and a knife on his neck.
"Oh God... you don't think..." I said in horror as we looked scared, except for Caroline, who examined the body.
"I'm afraid so... that Scheck we saw may as well be a fake. This is the real Scheck... and he's... dead." Caroline groaned. "Bloody hell..."
"Oh my God... who is that fake Scheck, then?" Nadine asked.
"Oh God, oh God..." Phoebe squeaked as she shook nervously.
Caroline groaned. "Look, it doesn't matter right now. We'll call the police and investigate Future Tech!"
"Fair enough!" I nodded. "What do we do?"
"Let's just get that document and get out of here!" Caroline walked in... and groaned. "Oh bloody hell, she knew we were coming!"
"What?" I asked as I stepped in and noticed a note. I picked it up and read it to myself.
'Hello. Like the little surprise? Sorry to disappoint, but you just walked right into a trap. Turn around right now, signed...'
There was a letter S with horns and a devil's tail, the same one I'm guessing Solara signs with it.
Confused, I turned and...
"Let me go!" Nadine frowned as she and Phoebe were in the clutches of the fake Scheck.
"Well... well... what do we have here?" "Fake" Scheck smirked.
"Let my friends go!" Rhonda glared.
"Or what?" "Fake" Scheck smirked.
I turned to find Curly and Caroline... only to notice they weren't there. The minute I turned back... I felt a whack on the head... and I fell right down.
