Chapter 28: Hope
The Abbey was covered in snow. Four guards walked around outside it, making shure that no one came out. It was wery early in the morning, and the sun was about to rise. The new light shined through one of the smallest windows, that was placed right over the ground. Small snowflakes found their way into the small room inside. It was wery cold, and the only furniture was a small bed in one of the corners. A girl, 14 years old, sat on it, shiwering, holding a thin rug around herself. Her brown hair was completely without glance, and her crimson eyes was lifeless...
But she smiled. She pulled a letter out of her pocket, opened it like she had done hundred times before, and read:
Dear Anya.
Hold on. Time is in for getting you out. I'm sorry for everything that's happened, and I know I haven't done my best. But you know I love you, and I'll do anything to get you out! Just hang on, okay? In a feew days, you will be free...
Your brother, Kai Armand
A small tear rolled down her cheek. She looked down at the necklace in her hand. It was made of gold, and hanging down from it, was red bird. Kai, her brother had been here! He had risked his own life to make shure she got this letter! Anya had allways remembered what he'd said! And now, her time of waiting, was over...
"Dont ya think we have waited long enough now!?" Tyson burst out. They were all sitting around the kitchen table, just finnished eating breakfast. Kai looked up at him. He and Runa had been in that church the whole night, but it felt like only some hours. The sun shined brightly through the open window, and it had stopped snowing.
"What d'you mean?" Tala asked, yawning. Tyson sighed. "You're plan! When are you going to tell us!?" Kai met Talas look. He nodded and smiled. Kai leaned back in his chair. "You're shure you wanna come?"
Tyson, Max and Ray grinned evilly. "I take that as a 'yes'" Kai mumbled. After they had cleaned the table, Kai placed some folders there instead.
"Okay, here it is!" he stated, and took some pictures showing the Museum, out of one of the folders. Tyson frowned. "I thought we were going to...make the Abbey 'explode' or something! Not going to the Museum..."
Gryff chuckeled. "So did I, at first." Tala grinned. "You see, we have to break into the Museum first. There's something there we need." Tyson, Max and Ray looked a bit surprised. "'Break' into the Museum?! But...that's not legal!"
Loki laughed out loud. "D'you allways do as you're ordered boy!?" Tyson shot him a death glare. "I'm doing my best! But, what are you going to steal?!"
"No, no, no! You're misunderstanding!" Gryff stated. "We're just borrowing it! Just without asking, and not returning it!" Kai hit his elbow with his own. "Idiot! That's the exact same thing as stealing." Gryff smirked. "I was just trying to be optimistic..."
"No, you were trying to be Tyson!" Tyson looked up. "What the heck is that supposed to mean?" Tala shook his head. "We're getting away from the point! Kai, tell them what we're gonna steal! You know that story better than I do..."
Kai cleared his throat. "Well... It was made 400years ago. And it was four families who made it together. It's a some sort of a key, shaped like a phoenix. I dont know how that Museum got it, but I dont think they know what it is supposed to open."
"Is it a key to a treasure chamber?!" Tyson quessed. Gryff snorted in laughter. "You're watching way too mutch movies Tyson!"
"No, not a treasure chamber. But something mutch more powerful." Kai stated.
"Then what is it!?" Tyson nearly yelled, and Ray smacked his hand over Tyson's mouth with an excusing smile. "Sorry Kai, please continue."
Kai smirked. "Before I tell what it is, I'll have to tell you about those four families. The family names was: McGregor, Hiwatari, Winther and Petrova. These tattoos..." he pointed at his cheeks. "...was their ide. Each family had a code to make the key work, and only when they activated those codes together, it would work. Only one person in the family knew about it though. And if that person told the code to someone else, they became the new keeper of it." He smiled, while the others looked at him in wonder.
"So...you guys are the keepers of the four codes?" Max asked, pointing at them. Tala nodded, with a grin. "But...wait, that doesn't fit! Both Gryff and Kai are Hiwatari's!"
Kai nodded. "I know, thats why the thing the key activates, is in the Abbey!"
Tyson shook his head. "I dont understand!" Kai grinned. "I know! That's the beauty of it!" Now, it was Gryff's time to hit Kai. "Honestly! Try to be nice!"
"Sorry. Okay, here's the story!" He cleared his throuat again. "We found out about this in the Abbey." He pointed at himself, Loki and Runa. "Not Gryff of course, since he never was in the Abbey. Runa belongs to the McGregor family and Loki to the Winther family." Kai lifted his hand when Tyson opened his mouth. "I know we said Loki didn't have a surname, but if we think logic, that's the only explanation."
"What about Petrova?"
"He died." Kai said. "It was all his plan! He found out about the weapon."
"Weapon? What weapon?" Ray asked.
Gryff smiled. "The key activates a bomb. Falco Petrova found it, you see. And then, he placed in the cellar of the Abbey! It's wery complicated though, because it's so huge! But he was a wery smart guy. He 'parted' the bomb in many small pices, and then placed them around in the building! So when the representative from each family activated it, the whole building would explode within three minuites!" Gryff made a loud "BANG!", and Tyson nearly fell off his chair. He looked at Kai in horror.
"And that's what you're planning to do?!"
"Yep!" Kai grinned. It was silent for a while. "Were gonna die!" Tyson yelled. Runa chuckeled. "Possibly. What did you thought we would do annyway?" Tyson hesitated. "Calling the police?" he tried, with a small hopefull smile. Kai laughed out loud. "In your dreams Tyson! I want the pleasure myself!"
"But, what about all the persons inside?" Max asked. Kai nodded. "Of course we're gonna get them out first." Except from a certain person, he thought.
"Ah, then it's okay!"
"What I dont understand, is how they haven't noticed a bomb there at all!" Ray stated. "I mean, Boris isn't stupid!" Kai frowned. "I wish he was! We thought they had noticed actually. Falco tried to escape, when he got shot. We thought that maybe Boris managed to get someinformation out of him before he died. But we belive it's safe, for now..."
"Then how come Gryff is the fourth keeper?" Tyson asked.
"Because, right before Falco died, he gave the task on to Gryff, even though Gryff was far away from him." Gryff grinned. "I just woke up one day with these tattoos!" he said. "It was quite a shock."
Kai nodded. "So, this is what we're gonna do: Break into the Museum, get the key, then we have to break into the Abbey, find the bomb, get all the innocent out, activate the bomb, and then get out as fast as possible. Did I miss anything?" He looked up.
"Dont think so." Tala smiled. "But what baout the security in the Museum?" Ray asked. Kai smirked. "We have thought about everything, Ray. There's no need to worry!"
Loki leaned back with a sigh. "Seems like theres a lot to do now. When are we going to start?"
Kai grinned. "Tomorrow..."
