When Maya used her sonic scream it was really loud; it was louder than Riley and Auggie thought it would be. Elsa and Zeltrax heard it.
"What's that noise?" shouted Elsa.
"I don't know," answered Zeltrax. " I don't know where it is coming from."
"Let' get out of here!" declared Elsa. "I have meeting anyway!"
Elsa turned back into Mrs. Sweetwater. She quickly ran up the stairs. Zeltrax followed her to the top of the stair case. The kids heard Elsa tell Zeltrax to go keep watch outside the locker room. He shut the door behind him.
"I think it is okay, for us to be visible again," whispered Riley. "Let's find the Olivers' and get out of here."
They let go of Auggie and they became visible. Maya suggested that they checked the room that Zeltrax and Elsa were guard. When she opened the door, she saw her aunt and uncle inside.
"Aunt Kimberly, Uncle Tommy!" cried Maya.
"MAYA!" gasped Tommy and Kimberly.
Riley and Auggie followed her into the room. Tommy and Kimberly were sitting inside the room. Auggie noticed his robe was white instead of black.
"I thought you had a black robe?" questioned Auggie.
"No, I don't have a black robe," corrected Tommy. " Elsa and Zeltrax were trying to throw you off."
"Riley demorphed and pulled out her cell phone. She started texting.
Meanwhile, Cory was in a meeting. He felt his phone vibrate. Cory knew it was Riley who had texted him. But, he couldn't get his phone out.
"Do you have any spare clothes in a locker in the locker room?" asked Maya.
"Yes, Maya," answered Kimberly. "There is a locker inside the room with the showers and the hot tube. Only teachers and coaches can store their stuff in there."
"I'll go get your stuff," declared Maya.
"Zeltrax is standing outside the locker room," reminded Auggie. "All of us can't go."
"Auggie and I will go," suggested Riley. " He can make us invisiable and we can make it into the locker room. I have the key to the basement. After we grab their stuff, I can get back down here.
"Our clothes are in a green duffle," stated Kimberly. "Don't bring the whole duffle down here. There is a grocery sack in the locker. Put our clothes in it."
"Riley before you go, please turn your cell phone off," begged Maya.
"Don't worry, I've already got it on vibrate," answered Riley. "We will be back soon. Maya there are some boxes in that corner. Go hide behind them, until we get back."
Maya got behind the boxes and hid. Riley grabbed Auggie's hand and they walked out of the closet. She hoped that Riley and Auggie wouldn't take to long. After they left, Maya realized that Riley wasn't morphed.
Meanwhile, Cory's first meeting had ended and they got a 10 minute break. He walked out with everybody else. As soon as he was in the hallway, he walked into his office. He shut the door behind him and he locked it. Cory sat down at his desk. He began to read Riley's message.
Dad,
We have found the Oliver's, they have their robes on. They are down in the basement in the closet. Maya used her sonic scream to get Elsa and Zeltrax to leave. Elsa turned back into Mrs. Sweetwater, so she could attend meetings. Zeltrax is guarding the locker room. Auggie and I are going to the room with showers and the hot tube to get their stuff. Did you know that they have a locker for teachers and coaches to store their stuff. Maya is going to hide behind boxes. We are going to need to find something to cut through the cords that are wrapped around them. Where can we find anything that could help cut through the cords? Once we get them free and they change how can we get out of the basement?
Riley
PS contact mom and tell her to take Farkle and Lucas to Target. Mom said she had to go there to do some shopping. We'll contact you if we need them.
Cory began to text Riley. After he finished texting Riley, he sent Topanga a text telling her to take Lucas and Farkle to Target. Cory told her that they could help her do her shopping. He told her that he'd text her more information later.
When he finished texting he walked out of his office, he locked the door behind him. He went to the bathroom. After he came out of the bathroom, he went to the teachers lounge to get a coke. Then it was time for his next meeting.
Back in the locker room, Riley and Auggie were in the room with the showers and hot tube gathering Tommy and Kimberly's stuff. Auggie was going through the cabinets.
"What are you doing?"
"I am looking for something we can use to cut through the cords. All I could find was someone's pocket knife and a pair succors."
"That is perfect, we can take them back down stairs with us. I'm done gathering their stuff. Let's go."
Auggie put the succors and the pocket knife in his pockets. He grabbed Riley's hand and they turned invisible. They walked out of the room and Riley let them back into the basement. Both of them quickly went back to the closet.
"We've been waiting!" declared Maya.
"Auggie found a pocket knife and succors," replied Riley.
"We can't afford for you to get caught. Riley, Go hide behind the boxes with Maya. Take our stuff with you," ordered Tommy. "Auggie, you can turn invisible. You can use the succors and pocket knife to cut through the cords. "
Riley hide behind the boxes with Maya. She told Maya that she got a message from her dad. Riley pulled out her phone and they silently read Cory's message.
Riley,
I am glad you all are okay. I am also glad to hear that you've found the Olivers'. I think they have tools in the basement that you can use to cut through the cords. The tools are in the janitors closet that is in the basement. I'm texting your mother and telling her to take Farkle and Lucas to Target. I am going to tell her that I'll get her the details later. For now, please be careful !
Dad
Riley quickly sent Cory back a text message. The girls heard Auggie say that he cut through the cord. Auggie went behind the boxes, so the Olivers could change. After a few minutes, they got dressed. Tommy was wearing a pair of jeans, a black tee, a tan shirt, and black dress shoes. Kimberly was wearing a pink floral skirt, a white blouse, a pink cardigan, black dress shoes, and pink socks.
"Uncle Tommy, we need to get out of here!" quoted Maya.
"I think he knows," added Riley. "He is probably trying to find out how we can get out. I'll text my dad."
Riley pulled out her phone and texted Cory. She knew he was in a meeting and wouldn't hear back from him for a little while. She also sent her mom a text. Riley was hoping that she'd hear from Cory or Topanga quickly.
"Riley, we can't wait for you to get a message," stated Kimberly. "We need to leave now."
"Zeltrax is guarding the locker room," declared Auggie.
"I think there is an underground passage that leads to the parking lot. Maybe we can try going through the passage?" suggested Kimberly.
"We don't know where it is," remarked Maya.
"Yes, we do," answered Auggie. "The enterance is probably through this trap door. I found it when we got behind the boxes."
"Why does Auggie find everything?" asked Riley.
They opened the trap doors. All of them went through the passage. Maya closed the doors, once everybody was through. Riley put her phone on flash light mode so they could see where they were going. Just then she heard her phone vibrate. Cory sent her a text.
Riley,
I am glad that the Olivers are free. I believe there are trap doors somewhere in the basement. If you find them, go through the passage. The passage ends near the side door located near the gym. When you come to enterance don't open it. Text me, and I'll turn off the security camera in that area, so you can escape. I will have Lucas and Farkle meet you at the enterance.
Dad
Riley quickly texted Cory back. Meanwhile, Cory was in his office. They had gotten a 30 minute lunch break. He grabbed a bottle of water, and a piece of fruit so he could quickly make it into his office. He was setting at his desk in his office. He had his office locked so no one could get in. He felt his phone vibrate. He read Riley's text.
Dad,
We made it through the trap doors. We are following the paths. Maya, Auggie, and the Olivers' are with me. I will text you as soon as we come to the end of the passage. Please keep a close eye on the cameras and contact mom. We need to get Tommy and Kimberly out of here.
Riley
