Hey guys! So last Fridays episode was pretty damned dissappointing. No Salex AND a freaking hiatus. Even one week is hell for me ;-; But I guess the episode on February 22nd will make up for it. This chapter took a little longer to write because I was sick(and still am) and due to Chinese New Years. For those of you who celebrate it, Gong Hay Fat Choy! :) and I hope you got lots of lai see. Enjoy! I'll have a new one soon since I have absolutely nothing to do today (staying home sick from school). ^.^
Chapter 3
"Sonya, look up the last known location of Alex before her tracker went offline again. Maybe I'll be able to find some weird activity going on near there" Birkhoff was overwhelmed with trying to find Alex. They had been looking for her for two weeks now, with no success.
"Alright, last known location...Guangzhou,China... Near the Laiyin Hotel before she went underground or a signal jammer jammed the signal." Sonya replied within minutes.
"Hrmmmmm...there's something here...I can't be sure if it is though..."
"Can you hack into it and see if it is?" Sonya had a look of excitement on her face,
"Yea, just give me a sec..." Birkhoff said as he typed furiously on the computer. "Holy mother of...It's Alex..."
...
Alex rested her head on her arm. It had been the fifth time she's thrown up today. She was going to kill Sean for this. It felt like crap, and she was all alone. Food and the living quarters wasn't all that bad, but it sucked knowing she didn't have access to a gun. No contact with anyone from Division was possible as far as she could tell, and attempting to escape would be just plain stupid. She was hoping Nikita would have a plan to get her out.
"Psst. Hey Alex. It's me Birkhoff."
...
"So it's just a 24 hour video surveillance for Amanda?" Ryan asked.
"Yep. It's uploading to somewhere, but the chances of us finding Amanda with it soon are slim to none. It's going take a while for Shadow Walker to get the job done." Birkhoff said sadly.
"Well, can we talk to her through it somehow?" Ryan asked hopefully.
"I can probably loop an old clip from this camera and we can talk to her without Amanda knowing." Sonya said confidently.
"Alright."
...
Alex looked at the camera. She knew Amanda was watching her every move and if she talked, Amanda would know.
"Don't worry, we're looping an old clip from this stream. From the looks of it you're not doing too well." His voice came from the camera.
"Yea, well you can thank Sean for that." She said, annoyed.
"I'm sorry, alright!" came Sean's voice.
"How many of you are here?"
"All of us. Nikita, Michael, Ryan, Sonya, Birkhoff, and Sean. Owen is still out from his rib injury."
"Do you guys have a plan to get me out yet?"
"Not yet, but we're working on it. There are guards all around the building you're in, and if we attempt to break you out, they'll alert Amanda. She's somewhat close by to where you are right now, so she'll get there when we're trying to break you out, and we'll risk getting captured. We know approximately what area Amanda's in, but it's going to take a while for us to pinpoint her location. After we figure that out, we'll find a way to break you out of that cell."
"What can I do to help?"
"You can sit tight and try not to piss Amanda off for now."
"I'll try."
"Act normal when we stop the loop so Amanda won't suspect anything."
...
"So this building in this clearing in the middle of the forest is where they're keeping Alex. This area is approximately where Amanda resides. I want you guys to do whatever it takes to close in the circle even further." Sean informed the room.
"Hey, Sean. Can I talk to you guys for a sec?" Birkhoff motioned towards everyone.
They all gathered in Ryan's office.
"Alright," Birkhoff addressed them,"we know that there are 4 pairs of guards around Alex's building on the outside, and a pair on the roof. None on the inside. We can possibly take out the guards before they're able to alert Amanda, and we can slip in and out before any of then notices she's gone."
"How do we get her out of the glass box?" Ryan asked.
"Easy. We come down from above and smash it. We just need Alex to be under the bed while it happens. When I dropped Percy down there, his body smashed the glass." Nikita replied.
"Alright, so we need a couple teams out there by foot. We can't risk the guards seeing us arrive in a chopper and alert Amanda." Ryan said quickly,"Sean, we need someone to tell Alex the plan. Can you do that?"
"Absolutely. I'll have Birkhoff help me."
"Alright guys. Wheels up in twenty."
...
"Alright. There. You should be set. Just call me back in here when you're done." Birkhoff said as he typed furiously on his computer,"I'll leave the room now to give you two some privacy."
He left the room as Sean sat down.
"Hey Alex."
"Sean?" She furrowed her eyebrows.
"Yea it's me. I'm alone in here."
"Me too."
"Well, it'd be pretty weird if you weren't."
"So do we have a plan yet?"
"Yea, we're gettin ready to head out there right now. It'll be really quick, and Birkhoff will let you know when we've arrived. We're breaking in through the roof, and we're going to smash the glass. You need to be under the bed when we give you the signal."
"Alright I can do that."
"I'm going to go pack. Be safe. I love you."
"I love you too."
...
So there you guys go. It's meh, but it'll do for now. I'm working on the fourth chapter right now, so you can expect that soon. Please favorite, follow, review, and all that good stuff. Let me know if there are any mistakes I should fix. Thanks for reading! :)
Over and out.
