Chapter Eight Part Two
A.N. My apologies, it has been a while.
Rebel Headquarters
Alex waited until everyone had arrived before standing in front of a large screen a clicker in his hand. He ran a finger though his black locks before beginning, "So when they kidnapped Eros they were careful to discard the tracking device I had attached to the crown of one of her back teeth. Lucky for us they threw it away on their journey towards their base."
"How do you know it's not a decoy or something. She could be at any one of there facilities by now." Hawke said deep in thought.
Alex cleared his throat, "I know the location because even the government can't completely hide itself. Not really, there is an abandoned farmed about fifty miles north of us. On that farm they have built an underground facility similar to this." He pressed the clicker and a large blueprint appeared in place of the map that was there before.
"These are the blueprints for the facility, further research done by yours truly has shown that they call this their Omega facility. Now this isn't a fully operational facility like the others Isis destroyed where, most of the facility consist of living quarters. There is a small lab, but nothing of interest is really there. So you should aim to get in and get out."
Isis nodded her head as her eyes darted all over the blueprints. She was committing them to memory as Jin watched her discretely as Alex continued on about security and precautions. When they had all of the information they needed Isis immediately prompted him to come with her. Alex met them outback with Hawke at his side. They quickly handed them ear pieces and Hawke handed Jin a gun. Isis raised a brow and Hawke smiled.
"You know how to control your powers, he doesn't." Hawke said, "But he does know how to use a gun so just in case things go bad."
Isis smiled at Hawke, "Why does it not surprise me that you taught...never mind things won't go bad. We will be in and out. I'll make sure he stays safe."
Hawke nodded and they were off into the night.
B26 Omega Facility
Cas and Walt
They had just left yet another debriefing when the power shut off sending everything into darkness. There was a slight hiss before the back up generators kicked in and the lights flickered before turning on. Cas looked at Walt and they both nodded before heading towards Cas's room where they had left Danelle. When the both came in Danelle looked up at them from a binder she was reading.
"We think the time has come." Cas said as Danelle sat up on the couch and closed the binder.
Walt cleared his throat, "Hold on, where did you get that binder from?"
Cas paused, as he looked down at Danelle whose face went completely blank as she answered, "Oh I found it somewhere..." She cleared her throat, "You think the time has come to break me out of here?"
"Don't try to change the subject." Walt interjected before Cas could say a word, "Just where did you..."
Danelle rolled her eyes at him and hid a grin. Cas wondered if it was boredom that made her pick at Walt the way she did. "I told you I found it somewhere, have you never heard of plausible deniability?" Danelle fiend exasperation and continued, "Now can Cas finish speaking or are you done interrupting?"
Walt said nothing as he tried to calm his emotions that threatened to explode. Danelle however seemed to be fighting back laughter as she turned her attention to Cas who simple frowned at her. In all honestly he did find it somewhat amusing. Danelle treated Walt as if he were an older brother that she just had to annoy. Walt was usually the calm and the collected one and she completely brought out another side of him. Yet, now was also not the time to get sidetracked with things that did not pertain to the matter at hand. Cas knew that everyone was treating the power outage as something random, but he knew she was here. He could feel her presence.
"We have to engage her," Cas said to Walt, "During the altercation we can tell her what is going on."
"What makes you think she will help you?" Danelle asked, "Us." She corrected at the two men that glared at her.
Walt sighed, "Well that much is easy, because that's the type of person that she is, and because we are now willing to offer her something in exchange for taking you and keeping you safe, even if that does mean locking you in a room and throwing away the key."
"Now we just need to figure out just where she is."
Cas said before looking at Danelle, "You stay here and don't open the door for anyone."
"But what if she..."
Walt smiled mischievously, "Oh she won't knock, trust me on that."
Jin and Isis
They had gotten in easily, and Isis felt that it was almost too easy. It was not as if she enjoyed doing things the hard way, but when things like this were too easy, it was always to good to be true. They ducked down a large corridor and Isis peeked around the corner before nodding at Jin. She went forward onto an elevator. As soon as Jin was behind her she pressed the button to the Laboratory. Per Alex's blueprint it was one large room and that it should be staffed with only two or three members at this time. The elevator doors binged and Isis froze. In front of her was Asesina who wore a large grin on her face. Beside her stood a man that she had never seen before.
The man looked at Jin and called out, "Now would be the time to walk away son. You will find the girl waiting for you outside."
Jin hesitated as Isis turned to him in confusion. Through his earpiece he could hear Hawke question, 'What is he talking about Jin?'
Isis knew immediately by the look of shame that flashed in Jin's eyes what was going on. She smiled at him and said, "Et Tu Brute?"
He pressed the button on the elevator and the doors slid shut as Isis turned back to the man and Asesina, whose smile looked sicking to her right now. Isis knew she could take Asesina, but it would not be easy, and then there was the man. There was something about the man that made her feel uneasy. There was something about the man that made her feel fear. And that was no easy feat and she wondered just who exactly that man was. Cas and Walt appeared and stopped at the scene before them. Isis sighed as she placed her hands behind her back.
"Good, you two came just in time." The man called out to Cas and Walt, "You can both escort her to the red room."
