Chapter Twenty-One

Chapter Twenty-One

It was the next day at work. Steve, Stiles, and Dustin were looking out for anything that looks like it is suspicious in the mall.

I was in the back, Robin was working on the translation and I was relaxing during my short break.

I was waiting for a package to show up for Scoops Ahoy. Robin was working on translation at the counter.

"Hey, I found something else," Robin informs me as she opened up the window. I looked over at her and sip on my coke. "A trip to China sounds nice when you read lightly,"

I had gotten Burger King for lunch.

"Once again, thrilling." I sighed and she gave me a small smirk.

"Don't worry, I'm going to figure it out, though." Robin tells me before closing the window.

"The week is long," I mutter, chewing on some fries. "The silver cat feeds when blue meets yellow in the west. A trip to China sounds nice when you tread lightly."

I was just finishing my burger and that's when there was a knock on the door, delivery guy was here. I put my fries down and walked over to the door.

I put down the fries I was about to eat and walked over to him. I opened the door. "Delivery for you." The man tells me.

"Thank you," I smiled and grabbed the box. I put it down on the table before walking back over to him and signing the paper he held out for me.

That's when I noticed his uniform. LYNX Transportation. "Have a nice day," the delivery man said.

I nod. "Yeah, you too." He turned around and his logo caught my eye. It was a silver cat. "Silver cat," I whispered. Oh, my God. What if the secret code is here, in this mall? "Silver cat."

I rushed out of the room, pushing past Steve, Stiles, and Dustin. "You're not gonna believe who Dustin thought was a secret Russian," Steve starts but I stopped listening as I grabbed Robin's pad.

"Hey?" Robin frowns as I pushed past the boys.

I rushed to the food court somewhat centre and jumped up on a table, looking around at the shops.

"A trip to China sounds nice." I mutter, looking around at the stores. "A trip to China sounds nice... A trip to China sounds nice..." My eyes land on Imperial, a Chinese takeout. "A trip to China sounds nice."

I gaped softly and looked down at Robin's notes. "If you tread lightly," I looked around. "If you tread... If you tread..." My eyes spot Kaufman shoes. "If you tread lightly,"

I looked down at the pad. "When- When blue and yellow meet in this west." I looked around once again. "When blue meets yellow..." My eyes land on the clock. The two hands were blue and yellow. "In the west."

"Stacey?" My boyfriend calls and I looked down to see Stiles, Steve, Robin, and Dustin standing there. "What are you doing?"

A proud smile spreads on my lips. "I cracked it." I state.

"Cracked what?" Steve asked and I jumped down from the table.

"I cracked the code."

-

The thunder crack above us as Stiles, Steve, Robin, Dustin and I wait on the roof of a building. "Look for Imperial Panda and Kaufman Shoes." I informed them over the weather as we looked down and saw a delivery truck, with men outside, guarding the place.

Dustin was using the binoculars. "They're with that whistling guy, ten o'clock." I looked down and saw the man Dustin was talking about.

"What do you think's in there?" Steve asked.

"Guns, bombs?" Dustin suggested.

"Chemical weapons?" Stiles adds.

"Whatever it is, they're armed to the teeth." Dustin explained.

The thunderclaps above us again. "Great." Steve groans. "That's great."

One of the armed men uses a set of key cards to open the door. "Hey, what's in there?" I ask, looking at the room they've opened and the whistling man wheeled the boxes in.

"It's just more boxes," Dustin informs us.

Stiles reaches for the binocular. "Let me check it out."

Dustin grabs hold of the binocular. "No, I'm still looking."

"Lemme see it." Stiles narrows his eyes at the boy.

Dustin pulls it back and I jumped at the sound of the thunder. "Hang on!" The binocular's slam on the edge.

"Duck!" I hissed and we all ducked instantly.

Stiles hands laced with mine, my heart pounding. Oh, we're dead if they catch us. Robin made a gesture towards the door at the top, we all nod understanding.

We need to leave now.

We all made sure we left smoothly, and then, once we were inside the doors, we ran for our lives down the stairs before they could catch us.

We made it to the delivery hallway where it leads to the back of Scoops Ahoy. "Well, I think we found your Russians," Robin tells us, with a short laugh. We all kind of just take glances at each other.

I have this bad feeling in my stomach that this is going to end up badly.
