Chapter 10: A Deadly Trap
As they hurried down the corridors they were unaware that Manuel was expecting them and had set a trap. Also watching them was Shaye, she sighed and shook her head.
'I've gotta act fast, I can't let those guys get killed or my mission will be much harder to complete, gotta get to the control room.' She thought to herself.
She quickly hurried down a hidden passage towards the control room, Kyle, Angela and Dave continued to hurry down the corridors, killing any Ganado that attacked them. Just then, as they rounded a corner, they found themselves standing in a more modern corridor than the castle area, made of sheets of metal. Standing on the others side of the corridor was Manuel. He smirked and spoke.
"Well, well, well. The BSAA have arrived," He remarked confidently.
Kyle glared at the man.
"You, how could you kill that man, he was your ally," He stated, enraged at the betrayal he had witnessed
Terrorist or not Kyle still had a strong moral compass and felt that to kill one of your own people for no reason was one of the worst things someone could do. Manuel gave a cruel laugh and responded.
"He failed, he deserved what he got, besides, he'll be back however, his Plagas still have to mutate," He stated coldly, "Maybe he'll be more useful then,"
"He was still your ally," Angela stated, angry.
Manuel shook his head.
"Ally, hah, he was a pawn," Manuel laughed, "All of them were my pawns".
Angela then spoke to Kyle, quietly.
"Kyle, don't forget we have to find out who gave them the Plagas," She whispered to him.
Kyle nodded and turned back to Manuel, he then levelled his gun at the man.
"How did you get your hands on that Plagas, answer me!" He yelled.
"Fool, if you want answers," Manuel taunted, "Come and get them."
Kyle sighed, he examined the corridor, he had a bad feeling about this.
"Guys, something's not right here, stay put until I get to the other side, okay," He told them.
"Alright," Dave replied.
"Okay, be careful Kyle," was Angela's reply.
Kyle then carefully began to advance down the corridor.
He got halfway down the corridor when suddenly two large steel doors slammed shut on both sides, trapping Kyle in the corridor, Manuel laughed again and ran off. Kyle looked around.
'Some kind of trap, but this can't be all there is to it' He thought o himself, 'damn, why did I have to be right for once.'
Kyle got his answer as suddenly, from between the sheets of metal a laser beam had activated and began to race towards him. He quickly ducked and narrowly avoided the laser beam, it passed him and when it reached other door it shut off. Kyle stood ready for another laser beam to come, meanwhile Angela was panicking.
"Kyle!" She screamed, "What do we do, Dave?"
Dave shook his head.
"I don't know, there's gotta be something, but where?" Dave replied, almost in a panic.
Dave looked around, but he couldn't see anything he could use to shut off the trap. Inside the corridor Kyle soon found himself facing a second laser beam, this one coming low on the floor. As it came near he jumped and once again narrowly avoided it. Almost immediately a third laser beam appeared and moved along the floor, however Kyle noticed something odd about this one and didn't jump. It was lucky he didn't as the laser suddenly changed height, moving upwards, he ducked and once again had a narrow miss. This one was much closer than the others however and although he wasn't injured Kyle felt the heat from the beam as it passed. He stood up, trying hard to ignore Angela's panicked shouts, he hated hearing her like this but he had to focus. Just then another laser appeared, it began to move towards him and then, suddenly it formed a mesh pattern of laser beams and blocked the whole corridor.
"Shit, shit!"
Angela watched, stunned in disbelief.
'It can't be, no. it's over'.
Dave turned away, shoulders slumped in defeat. Then, with only inches to spare, Kyle once again felt the heat from the lasers, the laser grid stopped. It remained in place for a second and then suddenly shut off, the doors opened and Kyle stared.
'I-I'm still alive,' He realized.
Angela rushed over and threw her arms around him, he responded and then, with Dave indicating that they had to hurry, they recovered their professionalism. They then hurried to the other end and returned to the castle corridors. They stopped as they rounded the corner away from the death trap, standing there was a woman in a black dress, she dumped a blue jacket on the ground and then fixed her backpack before smiling at them.
The trio approached the woman and Kyle spoke first.
"Who are you?" He asked, suspicious..
The woman's smile widened.
"You can call me, Shaye Style," She replied, casually.
"Shaye Style…" Kyle's eyes widened as she realized, "S.S, you're the one who saved Angie."
Shaye nodded briefly and then spoke.
"Don't you guys have something you should be doing?" She questioned them.
Dave then interrupted.
"What about you, what are you doing here," He asked, "Why did you save Angela, do you work for that freak Manuel?"
"I thought you were going after Manuel Verga," She replied, evading the question, "Didn't you have questions for him."
Angela sighed, Kyle understood and spoke.
"Stop changing the subject Shaye." He told her, "Why are you here, if your going to jeopardize our mission then we'll have to stop you."
"Listen Kyle, I have no intention of causing you three any problems, let's just say I have a mission of my own." She replied coldly, "For my mission to succeed, I need you guys to succeed. So I'm gonna help you".
Angela finally spoke.
"You're just helping us so you can succeed," She remarked before asking, "What is your mission?"
Shaye shook her head.
"Doesn't matter, anyway, the area up ahead is a labyrinth," She explained, "Here; take this, a map that'll show you the way to the throne room."
"Thanks I guess, so what are you gonna do?" Kyle asked.
She smiled and explained briefly.
"That's none of your business, simply put I'll be resuming my mission," She told them, "Good luck, you're gonna need it".
With that the woman named Shaye turned and left, soon disappearing into the shadows. Kyle sighed.
"It doesn't feel right but, I guess we've gotta trust her," He eventually stated.
"Okay, then lets go," Angela replied.
Dave nodded.
"Let's go, we've gotta hurry."
They prepared their weapons again and hurried, following the map, down the corridor that would lead to the throne room eventually.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
