Nate rushed back through the corridor of the ship knowing that the explosion wouldn't be enough to actually harm anybody, well he hoped not anyway. He stumbled as he pushed the door open to his room and almost knocked over Sully in the process.
"Woah slow down there kid" Sully said catching him and balancing him. "Don't tell me you need the room because I-"
"Sully there's no time" Nate gasped "The ship's about to blow. We need to get all our equipment and get onto that island. Hawk knows about the treasure, that's why he's here to get the treasure. He's got Katie Denim leading them, well she's not, but still we have to go now"
"Katie Denim? That South African treasure hunter with the blonde hair…wouldn't mind getting to know her…" Sully smirked
"Sully! Can we please concentrate on this first, if we do it fast enough I might just get you her number" Nate snapped slightly before moving towards the desk. He grabbed his journal and stuffed it into a bag before pulling out the silver case from underneath the bed and taking out his 9mm and loading it. He glanced over at Sully who was loaded his colt, Nate didn't know when he had lit the cigar but none the Victor was still smoking it. The door opened and Harry stepped in, now dressed in a black t-shirt and dark jeans with some work boots. He wore a leather jacket over the t-shirt and Nate was sure he had ammo in those pockets, judging by the desert eagle on his thigh he knew it was going to be hard not to be noticed. He didn't care and turned back to shoving some 9mm magazines into his pockets.
"Where's Chloe?" he asked looking at Harry who was playing with one of Nate's compasses.
"Oh she'll meet us outside on deck" he said. Nate rolled his eyes as he looked at Harry, he didn't understand the seriousness of the situation Harry was more of a take it easy guy. Nate stood up and snatched the compass from Harry and attached it to his belt before turning to Sully who looked ready to go.
"Alright this is where the fun begins" Nate said smirking slightly before striding from the room and down the hall. He stopped dead in his tracks when he saw Eddy walk past the opening at the bottom of the hall but breathed out a sigh of relief when he didn't reappear.
"Well seems like the old dog is getting senile" he smirked.
"Hey! Get them!" He heard Eddy and saw him in except now he had three guards with him.
"Oh crap" Nate muttered
"Senile? Really?" Harry said before turning and dashing up the other side of the corridor when the guards pointed M4's and opened fired. Nate just rounded the corner before the bullets riddled the walls. There were screams from the rooms at the sound of the bullets and people began rushing out into the corridors to head to the deck, helpful in a way seeing as Eddy had to find his way through them before chasing them. Harry heard Eddy and growled slightly before sliding to a halt and looking around at the dead end
"Great work Victor" He teased as he looked at Sully who frowned. More bullets chipped the walls. Harry turned and pushed open the closest door and bolted inside Nate and Sully following quickly. Nate and Sully stopped to turn and barricade the door before turning and stopping.
"Eh…hi" Nate said looking around at the kitchen staff who were making food.
"Don't mind us folks just have the midnight munchies" Sully smirked patting his stomach. There was a bang on the door behind them; they all looked at each other before bursting into a run through the kitchen. Nate ungracefully knocked over a large bowl of boiling water and narrowly missed the scalding water as it fell to the floor. A bullet chipped the frying pan just near Harry's head making him duck slightly but kept running. Sully shoulder the door at the end but found it wasn't locked and stumbled out onto a deck sidewalk the only thing that stopped him going over the edge was the metal railings only a meter away. Nate stopped and pulled down a shelf of food and assorted plates and pans to block Eddy's way. He could hear someone growl as they slipped in the boiling water and smirked to himself before seeing Eddy aim with one of his gold desert eagles and turned quickly closing the door.
"Nate? What the hell are you doing come on?" he looked up and saw Chloe and Harry lowering a boat down into the inky waters. Nate nodded and grabbed Sully before rushing towards them. His heart was racing from sheer adrenaline and he glanced over his shoulder when he saw Eddy trying to get through the door. He looked down as his walkie talkie beeped and grabbed it off his belt and answered.
"Nate? You still alive?" Katie asked in her usual south African accent. Nate looked around quickly before answering. He had to be careful to make sure none of Hawk's men were around.
"Yeah no thanks to Eddy" he said sharply but not meaning to aim it at her. Their was a pause before she answered in a hushed voice.
"Boats are about to be lowered and the ship is going to blow in less then two minutes" there was another pause. Nate knew men were watching her otherwise she wouldn't have been so distracted. "Be out of here before then" she said quickly before the signal died. Harry looked at Nate with a raised eyebrow and smirked.
"Well then time to get a move on" Chloe said turning to look at them. Nate hadn't noticed she was still wearing the same dress but had a back pack slung over her shoulders and then he froze.
"The map!" he gasped. He had left the map on the desk in the room. How could how he would be stupid. "I'll be back" he said turning before running back into the ships hull.
"Nate! Wait"
"Hey Kid hold up" Sully and Chloe called in unison. Harry looked after Nate and glanced at the others.
"I'll get him just get down into the boat now" he said before turning and dashing after him. Sully looked at Chloe and motioned her to hurry up glancing after the two boys who were no where to be seen.
Katie glanced around as the men loaded their equipment into the boats everyone was in panic due to the gunshots provided by Eddy. She impatiently pulled the black and white bandana from her wrist and tied it around her neck as she waited; she then bent down and fixed the blade that was hidden by her dark grey boots. She jumped slightly when she felt someone slap her butt and didn't even have to look to see who it was.
"You got better looking since we last we met" Eddy smirked as he drew around to stand in front of her. She looked at him with her icy blue eyes and smirked fakely before reaching out and grabbing him between the legs. He gasped slightly and she could see his whole frame tense. She watched him for a minute and smirked to herself before letting go seeing him lean heavily on the railings.
"And you gotten smaller" she smirked.
"Denim" she turned to look at Hawk as he strode towards her and sighed inwardly wondering what he wanted now. "Ready to go?" he asked glancing around quickly at the people as they gathered on the deck. She nodded and threw her leg over the railings and climbing down the ladder into the boat. Hawk soon appeared beside her as the boat motor roared slightly as it was started. Hawk sat and glanced down at his watch smirking.
"1 minute" he said turning to look at the Island his eyes glinting with inhumane greed.
