Chapter 2

Patton's POV

As I shut the transmission, I sighed unhappily. I knew this day meant a lot to her, but things were getting a lot more hectic for us by the second. I could hear the operatives yelling and shooting, so I grabbed my gun and made a run for it. I could see Fanny was running around the top floor, shooting any enemy that came through the doors.

Younger operatives were guarding the main floor, but it wasn't enough. I jumped up upon the railing, and leapt to grab a rope and slide down. As I neared the floor, I leapt off and landed on the nearest Ice Cream man. I pointed my gun to the rest, all of whom backed off instantly. I grabbed the collar of the guy I was standing on, and pulled him right up to my face.

"Listen punk, I'm only gonna ask this once, who sent you?" I spat, making it clear I wasn't playing around.

"I'm not gonna tell you anything." He whispered as a threat. "And nothing you do is gonna make me."

I shoved him down, and kept my weapon pointed at the enemies. Though it didn't hold them off for long. A kick to the chest, and I was flown back.

As I pushed myself up, I saw the trainees attempting to hold them back. I saw Fanny sliding down the same rope, shooting to cover me. She reached my back, and we took sides. I began shooting some of the sneakier enemies, knocking them back. Fanny covered my back, literally.

"I don't think we can hold them off much longer…" She said, shooting quite heavily. "We need backup…"

"That's a negative Numbuh 86-T." I replied. "We've just got to hold them off until Numbuh 168 can finish the alterations on the defense system." I drop kicked some guy as he came too close, and peered up at the tech's room. "Come on 168…"

"It's no good Numbuh 60-T!" One of the trainees called. "We can't hold them back!"

"Just keep trying!" I yelled back, shooting up at any enemy making their way to the tech's room. "Numbuh 86-T, keep holding them back, I need to help Numbuh 168."

"Roger that." She said, and turned us around. I ran for the ladder in the near distance, and began my ascend.

I reached the top, shooting any enemies that the trainees couldn't see.

I rolled across the floor, taking out a few more of the drones by their legs. I reached the tech's room, and slammed the door shut.

"Numbuh 60-T, what are you doing here?" Numbuh 168 enquired as she dropped her spanner in fright.

"I'm going to help you fix that defense system. We need it up and running pronto." I replied, shoving a chair under the doorknob and kneeling down beside her.

"What's wrong with it?"

"Well, there seems to be a lot of clots in the gears." She explained. "I would get the stuff out, but there's a risk that the gears will turn as I'm doing it…"

I was already pushing my hand in, and shoved a metal bar in between the problem gears. Then hastily, I began ripping stuff out. Numbuh 168 just sat and watched in awe as I pulled the bar out, and the system's alarms went off.

"Right, make sure it keeps going until we flush these creeps out." I ordered before kicking the chair away and flying through the door. I leant over the railing, and screamed as loud as I could. "TND, RETREAT!"

Fanny looked up, and I nodded once. Even though the alarms were wailing, the trainees could hear her instructions being bellowed.

I ran around, making sure every door was sealed before ducking into the nearest room. For a moment I could hear cheers of supposed victory from the bad guys. And then, a smirk formed on my face as I heard screaming and wailing. The melted ice cream gushed through the training base, and pounded against the door powerfully. I leant on it, and made sure it couldn't flow in.

Slowly, the pressure lowered, and the ice cream level lowered to a mere trickle. I opened the door, and saw the place was covered in ice cream…and as I looked down, I noticed Fanny was too. I leapt down, and carefully made my way to her. I took off my jacket, and used it to wipe it off her.

"What happened?" I asked. "I told everyone to get out.

She shook her hair a little, and slops of chocolate ice cream fell off. "I didn't make it in time. I was trying to get the lazy ones in before I did."

I shook my head with a smile, then looked around. "I think we need to find a better defense system, coz this is gonna take all night to clean." I looked up at my office, and a wave of guilt swept over me.

Fanny could see the guilt in my face. "What's on your mind?"

"Well, I kinda blew Rachel off tonight so I could help here." I said calmly. "I know it's our two year anniversary and all…"

"What?!?" Fanny cried, and began hitting me on the arm. "You don't blow your girlfriend off for work, on your anniversary! What's wrong with you? Besides the fact you're an idiot male?!?"

It hit me then how badly I'd just screwed up. "Oh man, what the hell was I thinking?" I slapped my forehead and slid down a nearby wall.

"Not a lot obviously." She retorted. "Why didn't you tell me it was your two year anniversary? I would've handled things here. God, you're so stupid."

I leant my head back against the wall, and pinched the bridge of my nose in frustration. "What am I gonna do?"

Fanny shook her head. "I dunno about that. But what I do know is not to expect everything to be normal at the meeting tomorrow." She began to leave. "And you'd better shower up and get some rest, it's gonna be a long one tomorrow."

She retreated to her room, and I shook my head. I had messed up big time.
