Ascent

Hugo spoke sharply at Arik and Diesel, "Bring them to base!"

They shook nervously, "Yes sir," They replied in unison, each dragging one animatronic behind them.

Hugo went to reach for Jayden's foot, but Krystal objected, "I'll get him for you, love."

He countered, "Are you sure?"

Krystal looked at him dreamily, "Anything for you."

"Good. Just as I thought," Hugo smirked.

As they were walking, Diesel whispered, "Arik."

He didn't hear her, "Arik!"

He glanced over at her. Then she indicated for him to look at her hand as she tapped her fingers.

Arik recognized it - Morse Code. It spelled:

A - C - T - I - V - A - T - E

He tapped back, How? Guards there.

Don't know. Must find way.

Arik quickly glanced over his shoulder at Hugo to find that he was whispering to Krystal.

Arik thought for a bit, then he spelled out, Watch them. Find weakness. He then said, Should listen in.

The two slowed down so they were close enough to hear what they were saying to each other, but they stopped talking, and matched their pace.

Arik and Diesel sped back up again.

Diesel waited, and then signaled back, No use, too smart.

What now?

Wait.
