Chapter 12: The Plan Worked Perfectly!

"This is a bad idea," Katrina told her group. Once everyone got to the front of the building, they decided to split up. Katrina was standing by the entrance of the building with Mercedes and Brandon. Kendall had taken the security card from Mercedes and led Carlos, James, Logan and Gustavo to the roof of the building.

"Is she always like this?" Mercedes asked Brandon. Before he could answer, she continued, "Whatever, you two need to get your sunglasses on." Katrina and Brandon looked at each other, put their sunglasses on and rolled their eyes, safely hidden behind the sunglasses so Mercedes couldn't see it.

Suddenly, Katrina heard static coming from her earpiece and she asked the others, "How did the guys get us all earpieces to communicate?"

They shrugged, but listened to Kendall's voice from their earpieces, "We're on the roof. Logan has hacked into the building and we've found the map. We just have to get in and head over to the security camera room without being seen. You three can go in now."

"Got it," Katrina, Brandon and Mercedes responded. They looked at each other, gave a nod and Mercedes led the two into the building. Brandon was holding a briefcase and Katrina was holding a clipboard. Both of them quickly got in step with Mercedes as they kept right behind her, Katrina on her right and Brandon on her left.

It wasn't long before they ran into Griffin. He had two assistants following him that stopped along with him when he saw his daughter.

He turned his head to the side, "Who are these people, Mercedes?"

"My assistants," Mercedes answered. It was already rehearsed. She snapped her fingers, saying, "Nails." Katrina quickly pulled out a nail file and began filing Mercedes's nails until Mercedes pulled her hand away. Katrina put the nail file back in her pocket right before Mercedes snapped her fingers again, saying, "Water." Brandon pulled a bottle of water out of his birefcase and gave it to Mercedes. She looked down at it as though something was wrong before turning to Brandon, "Cap." Brandon hesitated, but took the water from her, taking the cap off before handing it back to her. She took a sip and handed it back to Brandon, telling her dad, "I swear, it's so hard to find good help these days."

Griffin took a good look at his daughter and spoke, "I think I know what's really going on." The three teenagers froze. Suddenly, a smile broke across Griffin's face as he put his arm around Mercedes's shoulders, "You want to be like your dad! I can show you exactly how I take over a company. There's one that's going to fall very soon. Would you like to watch?"

"You know I would Daddy," Mercedes began, "But I wanted to get a trip to Aspen scheduled and my amateur assistants don't know how to do it. Not to mention find ski stuff in LA for both me and Fruipy."

"I can take care of this," Griffin told her. "Why don't you stay here and see what it's like to run this place while I'm gone?" The teenagers smiled and waved as they watched Griffin and his assistants leave the building.

As soon as he was out of sight, the smiles disappeared as Katrina brought her hand up to her ear and pressed a button on the earpiece, "The bird has flown the coup. Repeat, the bird has flown the coup."

"Perfect," Kendall responded in their earpieces, "Move on to Phase Two. You know what to do."

Mercedes ran away from the other two and Brandon turned to Katrina, "Ready?" He put on the white gloves from his pocket.

"Yep," Katrina assured him before they ran off in the opposite direction of Mercedes.


Meanwhile, Carlos, Kendall, James, Logan and Gustavo were making their way down a hallway. An unconscious man was being dragged along by Carlos.

"I don't see why you had to knock him out," Logan told Carlos.

"Hey," Carlos defended his actions, "He saw us. We have to keep as unseen as ninjas." At that, he karate-chopped the air in front of him.

"Focus," Kendall got them to relax, "We're on a mission." He looked in a nearby office and noticed that it was empty. He turned to James, "We're going to wait here. You do your thing. Call us when you're done."

"Got it," James nodded, his serious face on. He watched his friends and Gustavo hide in the office. Taking a deep breath, he went into the room next to it that was labeled 'Security Cameras'. Finding a security guard watching the monitors, he cleared his throat to gain attention.

"Who are you?" The man asked James.

"Mr. Griffin told me to come here and relieve you of your duty," James explained, staring down the man.

"Really?" The man looked hesitant, "It's a little early."

"I'm always early," James insisted. "You never know what's going to happen." He continued to stare the man down as though trying to force him to believe him.

The man stared at him, "Right. Well. I guess I'll just go then." The man grabbed his things and ran from the room.

James brought his hand up to his ear to press the button on his earpiece, "Room's clear."

A couple seconds later, the door burst open as Logan, Kendall, Carlos and Gustavo joined James in the room. Gustavo took the seat in front of the camera monitors. Carlos threw the unconscious man in the corner before he joined his friends in a huddle.

"Okay," Kendall addressed them, "Logan and James, go find Mercedes. Carlos, you and I will go find Katrina and Brandon. Ready? Break!"

Logan and James ran from the room and Carlos waited at the door while Kendall addressed Gustavo, "Remember, lock the door when we leave."

"I KNOW THE PLAN!" Gustavo yelled at him. Kendall nodded and left with Carlos.

Kendall pressed the button on his earpiece, "We're on our way."

He heard Katrina respond, "Perfect."


"Now, we wait," Brandon told Katrina as they sat down on the floor by the unmarked door where Lolo the chimp was behind. An uncomfortable silence settled between the two best friends as Katrina played with her fingers and Brandon kept adjusting his suit jacket.

"So," Katrina broke the silence.

Before she could go on, Brandon spoke, "Are you ever going to tell the guys about the accident?"

"You know that they'll be like the kids at our old school," Katrina answered, "They won't know how to react around me after they find out about that day. They'll act sympathetic and stuff. I don't want that. Besides, this plan is probably not going to work."

"If it does, will you tell them?" Brandon pressed, "You need to talk to someone besides me and these guys are the first people who you've let in since then."

"Maybe," Katrina sort of gave in, "I've been thinking about it."

Brandon was about to say something when the elevator near them dinged. They quickly stood up and began to act as though they were guarding the door. The doors to the elevator opened, revealing Kendall, Carlos and a large cage on wheels with a cloth covering it so no one could see inside it. Carlos pushed the cage into the hallway and Kendall followed him out, looking at the other two with an eyebrow raised.

"Did we miss something?" Kendall asked them.

"No," Katrina insisted as she and Brandon relaxed. Kendall and Carlos looked at each other and shrugged. She continued, "Where did you get a cage?"

"I've got a guy," Carlos responded.

"Of course you do," Katrina replied.

"Let's hope this works," Brandon told the others as he pressed his gloved hand up against the scanner. The four teenagers leaned forward as it scanned Brandon's white glove.

Suddenly, it spoke, "White glove, confirmed." And there was a click as the door unlocked. The teenagers let out a breath they didn't realize they were holding. Kendall stepped forward and opened the door, holding it open for Carlos, Katrina and Brandon. Once everyone was inside, he looked around the hallway before quickly closing the door.

A minute later, the door opened and the group walked out casually.

"That was easier than I thought it would be," Carlos commented.

"I've had tons of practice on getting animals in cages," Katrina bragged.

"Let's go before we get caught," Kendall told them. They made their way down the hallway towards the exit as Kendall brought his hand up to his earpiece, "Phase Two complete. Onto Phase Three, also known as 'Escape the Building'."

Making their way through the building was easier than they thought it would be. There were surprisingly very few people in the halls. Katrina led them through and Brandon tailed the group, checking behind him often to make sure no one would sneak up on them. When they found someone coming, Carlos, Kendall and the cage would hide in a nearby room and Katrina and Brandon would pretend that they were discussing something on Katrina's clipboard until the coast was clear.

Suddenly, the group heard screaming. Kendall, Carlos and the cage quickly hid as Katrina and Brandon huddled over Katrina's clipboard. They couldn't help but look up though when they saw Mercedes run past screaming, followed by a laughing Logan who was followed by James using a whistle as he ignored the group following him that consisted of guards and people in suits. The full line quickly turned a corner.

"If I didn't know that was supposed to happen, I'd be really curious," Katrina told Brandon as she knocked on the door Kendall and Carlos were behind, indicating that the area was clear. They came out with the cage and all of them took a look around to be sure that no one was watching them before they made their way to the exit.


Kendall, Carlos, Katrina and Brandon were waiting in the front of the building for the others. Soon, Gustavo joined them followed by Logan, James and Mercedes.

"Now that everyone's here," Gustavo began, "TO THE STUDIO!"


Everyone was standing in one of the recording rooms at Rocque Records, staring at the chimp dressed in a suit that was jumping on the table. Most of the group was smiling, Kelly being the only exception.

"I was kidding!" She told the group.

"But the plan worked perfectly!" Logan insisted. The group began to agree and cheer, complimenting each other on a job well done.

(A/N): So, this is my take on what happened during the chimpnapping… Influenced by their outfits. Anyways, it looks like Katrina might be warming up to the idea of telling the boys about the accident! Will she tell them in the next chapter? … Because it's Katrina, probably not. But something big does happen in the next chapter!

And here are the choices for the voting contest again:

1. A girl bully.

2. A boyfriend for Brandon.

3. A stray animal.

4. A boyfriend for Katrina.

Confused? Check out chapter 7 for more information! Until the next chapter, happy reading and don't forget to vote!
