Chuck had flashed on a dozen more recruits to Castle. Casey was beginning to suspect something.
"Chuck? Are all these people belong to Fulcrum?' Casey asked while standing in the exam room.
"It does seem an awful lot doesn't it?" Ellie said.
"Yeah it does indeed." Sarah said now being suspicious.
"Now that you all mention it there is not much background on these people either like a regular Flash. And I have cross checked on the update I just got a few minutes ago…" Chuck stated.
"What do you mean a new update?" Ellie said interrupting.
"Yeah that is what I just did" Chuck explained.
"But Castle is in lockdown how did you get an update?" Casey wanted to know.
"Through the medical scanner. It was piggybacked on the scanner." Chuck said.
Then the apparition of Orion appeared.
"Charles is correct I thought he might have had a faulty data input so I quickly sent an update." Orion said.
"It is just so spooky when he does that" Sarah whispered to Casey.
Casey just grunted #5 means 'I am so with you sister.'
"So that Fulcrum computer was…?" Chuck asked.
"An elaborate trap" Orion said in his best Admiral Ackbar voice. "I did not think Fulcrum had gotten that data yet." Orion said "I need to find out more."
Orion then disappeared.
"I hate that he comes and goes. Castle is supposed to be secure." Casey said.
"Obviously not secure enough" Chuck said.
Ok enough Chuck what is it? Ellie asked.
"Casey I think I can say our lockdown was premature. Thanks to my father's intervention we did not go on a wild goose chase suspecting loyal Members of being Fulcrum." Chuck said. "Somebody sure went to a lot of trouble to make sure I downloaded this faulty data. I know that is troubling Orion."
"Chuck do you mean they already knew who you were as soon as we got there?" Sarah asked.
"I do but now we know. Casey bring up those blueprints. We attack tonight!" Chuck said.
"Now wait Charles! I have not medically released you yet! You need at least 24 hours of observation." Ellie said in her sternest voice.
"That is true Chuck. Ellie is the Chief Medical Officer. There is no way I would even want to violate her orders!" Sarah said.
"Sarah, Casey…would you please leave the room? I need to talk some sense into my over protective sister." Chuck said.
Sarah kissed Chuck and said. "I will be right outside."
"Ok Moron I have to unlock Castle and explain to the General too. Good Luck!" Casey said then grunted #33 "which is I doubt you can change her mind but go at it!"
Casey followed Sarah out the door.
"You think he can do it?" Sarah asked as Casey was turning away.
"If anyone could it is him…" Casey said walking away. Sarah just sat on the chair.
The rest of the medical staff was in the hall waiting for someone to take charge. Finally after a few minutes Ellie emerged. She was not happy and she barked orders at her staff which quickly dissipated.
"I am holding you responsible Sarah! He is crazy!' Ellie said as she stalked down to her office. Sarah tentatively stepped back into the room.
"Ah Sarah Good can you hand me my trousers? Thanks. Darn Ellie has me still hooked up to these machines for the next few hours." Chuck said.
Sarah looked at him.
"It was a compromise. Besides it is not dark yet. Get Casey in here with those plans. We have work to do." Chuck said.
Sarah complied and soon they were doing a planning session on how to take down this Fulcrum Base. Finally the plans were done and the time limit was up. Ellie herself removed the equipment.
"Ok Sis what is the verdict?" Chuck asked.
"The scans are clean. You are cleared medically but Chuck watch yourself." Ellie said worriedly.
"I will Sis don't worry about me! I have the best team ever!" Chuck said kissing the top of Ellie's head and hugging her.
The team left Castle after informing the General of their plan and had the support teams in position if they were needed.
In the Van they were still discussing the plan.
"Casey had laid out the explosives which would herd the personnel into the Optical Clean room. From there all was necessary was for I to give myself up and allow their natural curiosity to Take over. Once they activate their Intersect they would be helpless to not watch the images too." Chuck said.
A lot of this depends on whether these people are not aware of how the Intersect download works, Sarah said.
What happens if they close their eyes before activation Moron? Casey asked.
"Well that is where the support teams come in and wipe them out. But I rather not have to do that." Chuck said.
"OK Moron it looks like we have all bases covered let's go. Casey said stopping the van then leading them into the tunnels.
Chuck's plan worked perfectly except for one thing. Sarah was in the room while Chuck was strapped to his chair.
"Sarah push your head against my chest and close your eyes until I say you can open them Now Sarah!" Chuck said as he lost his voice when the images came on the screen. The other personnel were watching just as well. Chuck was slightly dazed when the screens went blank.
"Sarah Honey? You can open your eyes now." Chuck said.
Sarah blinking a few times and then hugged Chuck still strapped to the chair.
"Sarah while I appreciate that please unstrap me. We need to leave Casey's charges are about to blow!" Chuck said.
"Oh of course let's blow this place Chuck!" Sarah said as they ran arm in arm through the tunnels as the first explosions were taking place. As they exited the last explosions were heard. The Cover was Gas leaked destroyed all the subdivision. It went up in a massive fireball! Sarah was sad to see her first home with Chuck destroyed.
Returning to Castle Ellie had Chuck under go more tests.
"Ellie I am fine I really do not need to be strapped down again! Ellie are you listening to me?" Chuck said.
"Little Brother Shut it! You have never been able to overpower me but if you persist I will endeavor to show you!" Ellie said in a very controlled voice.
With that Chuck because very docile.
Soon the tests were over and the update that Orion correct determined minimized any risks to Chuck. So Ellie reluctantly remove the restraints.
Being Cleared Chuck headed to the conference.
"General, It was too bad 54 homes got destroyed but we did not know that they had built over a gas pocket!" Chuck said.
"Chuck it would have happened anyways. That gas was seeping into every one of these homes." The gen said reading from the Fire Marshall's report.
Chuck looked at Sarah and Casey then back at the General.
"Team…You have done well!" The general said then she signed off.
"It looks like we still have a few days off for our vacation. Sarah? Where would you like to go?" Chuck asked with his eyebrow dance.
"I don't know Chuck maybe just stay in? I am sure we can find something to do." Sarah said seductively.
"Damn Lady feelings around here if you want me I am going to clean my guns!" Casey grunted #56 'utter disgust'.
"Ok Ms. Walker you have yourself a date Race you to your car!" Chuck said as he took off like a flash.
"Chuck… But I never win... Sarah shut your self up!" Sarah said to herself as she raced to her car only to see Chuck smiling sitting in the passenger seat all belted up
"Sarah you are a lucky lucky girl" She said to herself as she jumped in and spun out heading to the apt.
The next two days were of glorious bliss. Sarah was not even annoyed when Morgan showed up.
