Chapter 6: Early Schedule
"Morons, wake up." Mikel said to Jake and Nerk as he violently shook them. It was the night of the 23rd, and for some reason, Mikel's ankle felt fine. "Huh? What about your ankle?" Jake said sluggishly as he got up. "Screw it. I just want it done now. Besides, everyone's sleeping-I figure us three can do it. Let's go." Mikel said as he left. Nerk and Jake looked at each other, then followed.
15 minutes later…
"Ok, I found this unguarded. I've already checked it-it's clear. Trust me, alright?" Mikel said calmly as he went in first. "Listen, if I don't come back in 10 minutes, get me tomorrow. Got it?" Mikel told them, which they listened as they waited.
Mikel looked around, saw it was clear, then went to the cells. Mikel kept looking into each cell, looking for the target that they planned to rescue. Finally, in cell a-25, he found him. "Mr. Claus? Sir?" Mikel whispered as he woke the prisoner up. It was Santa, who was captured a couple of days ago-and if not rescued, would ruin Christmas. "Who's there?" he said, demanding who was coming. "It's me, Mikel Richardson. You know…the psycho?" Mikel said looking through the bars. "Be quiet. I'm letting you out." Mikel said as he pulled hard at the door, then let it fly. He knew it made a huge noise, but luckily, no one was there to hear it. Relieved, he told Mr. C where to go, which the big man gratefully left. As Mikel went in there to look around, the door closed on him. "What the-Barrow." Mikel said as he looked at the opening to see Barrow's face. "It's a trap. Jake…you'll never win, Barrow." Mikel said as he sat in the cell. "You assume too much." Barrow said as he motioned for two huntsguards to stand watch at the gate. "Surprised he didn't tell them to kill me." Mikel thought to himself as he waited, waiting for his time to strike.
Later…
"Ok, good news and bad news. First, Mr. C is on his way back, but at the same time, the bait, or Mikel in this case, is captured. He told us to get him out tomorrow, but knowing his enemies, they'll take him out in the morning. What should we do?" Jake said as he told everyone of what happened.
Suddenly, Branden was shaking-shaking from anger. "I'll tell you what we'll do. In the morning, we attack to save our man. Understand?" Branden said to them as he showed everyone their solution to their problem.
"He definitely is Mikel's cousin.." Nerk joked, before shutting up after getting a look from Branden.
"It's settled. Tomorrow…our plan is in motion." Lao Shi said as he motioned everyone to prepare for a very big fight…
Couple to go…I hate my typing schedule…Oh well.
