189 Heading Out

“Alright,” Malachi muttered.

“You’ll then be able to see a set of stairs, and they’ll tell you to go up those stairs. You’ll see two doors on the way up-one on either side of the hallway. Those doors will be unlocked. And then once you get to the top floor, you’ll see another door that you can open.”

“Alright,” I muttered out with a sigh as I was now feeling nervous about the whole situation.

“That leads to a series of elevators,” she said, as she pointed to the picture, which had all four of us in it, going up a few floors before she pointed towards the picture and said, “You’ll see four elevators.” Then she pointed at another picture that was slightly bigger than the last one she pointed towards and said, “You’ll see an elevator in each corner.”

“Alright,” September said with a shrug as she rubbed her arm nervously.

Agent Nelson sighed as she said, “But you won’t be able to take the elevator. You have to take the stairs again and then you’ll see another door. After that, you need to go the hall and then to the left. Let me warn you, guards are all over these hallways, so you need to make sure you are not questionable.”

Malachi nodded, and he looked at everyone. “Alright, I think it’s time that we start,” he said, looking at us. Agent Nelson nodded as well as he gestured with her fingers, causing agents to rush around the room to prepare.

“Follow me,” she said to us as she walked past us. We began to follow behind her as she went inside of the elevator. “You guys have all your weapons?” she asked, and we all nodded as the door closed. It began to go up, making this humming noise that just disturbed the awkwardness that was circulating inside of the elevator.

“So, how’s your time been in the task force been?” Tisiah asked, trying to make somewhat of a conversation, but Agent Nelson only gave her a shrug as she looked at him and said, “You know how it is. I’m just doing my job.” Then she looked at the others as she said, “Oh, by the way, we’re on the top floor now.”

.....

Then the doors opened, as a black helicopter showed itself with a glistening paint that seemed to reflect brightly off the evening sun-somehow. “Ooh,” Malachi muttered in anticipation as Agent Nelson chuckled. A pilot was already in there, probably checking a bunch of things that I don’t even know about.

We continued to walk onto the roof of the building, and the doors automatically revealed themselves open to us to enter in.

“Okay, this is kind of cool,” Malachi said. “I haven’t been in a helicopter since-hey where is he anyway?” Right then, I saw the elevator doors open and none other than Fulton Rocke was coming out of that helicopter. Fulton looked strong and firm, as if the few months were really just blessings to him.

He set his eyes on me, and a big smile came across his face.

“Connor!” he shouted in jubilation. “It’s been a while!”

“Fulton,” I said back with a smile of my own as I walked forward to meet him in the middle of the roof. “How are you doing?” he said with a smile as he looked up and down at me, but then he noticed Nikki and September behind me. “Hey, it’s you guys again!” he once again greeted, this time with his arms open out as if he was welcoming everyone on board.

“Uh yeah,” I mumbled. “This is September, Nikki, Malachi, and Tisiah. You remember them, right?”

“Yes, of course I did,” he said. “Wow, I thought I’d never see you guys.”

“Well, I guess that’s just life for you, I guess,” I said, and Fulton shrugged. “Alright let’s get inside shall we?” I nodded as we began to enter into the helicopter, with Agent Nelson, who didn’t seem to be very flattered with Fulton’s arrival.

“You’re late,” she muttered, but Fulton simply shrugged as he said this, “Yeah, well, there were some things that needed doing before we could go on a mission.” Then he smiled at us again as he said, “But we’re here now.”

He got inside of the helicopter before it closed, and soon enough it began to lift into the air, causing my hair to be blown by the wind. We were finally going on a mission, and it felt amazing to have something going on in our lives.

We all took our seats as the helicopter flew through the skies of the city. This was going to be an interesting day, for sure. We had four hours before we arrived at our destination, and I looked at the map as we were flying in the skies of the city.

The city was littered with trees and bushes. There were no skyscrapers here in this place. Everything was made of brick and stone and seemed to be old and rundown. But as the helicopter flew over a bridge, I noticed a structure that looked like an airport.

***

A few hours passed before the sight of the base began to glint in our eyes. “I think we’re heading there,” Fulton said, and then he took out a small compass from his pocket as he pointed it at us all and said, “We should be able to see that in about five minutes.”

I gulped as I looked at the map that I was holding.

About four of our own helicopters were behind us, so I looked back at them and wondered what they would do when they caught up to us. “Alright, agents,” Agent Nelson said inside of her radio once she took it out, “It’s time. Watch our spies, they’re important.” She cut off the radio, her eyes immediately settling to mine, but then she suddenly looked away from me to look at someone else, but it didn’t make any sense to me why she’d do that.

“What’s going on?” I asked as I looked around.

“We arriving to Dr. Mord’s base. Try not to die alright?” she said, taking out her phone, and she started taking pictures of everyone inside of the helicopter. “Everyone, try to look calm and happy. Just act natural and don’t make any weird faces or anything. We’re going on a mission together.”

“Is this for some-”

“Don’t ask.”

“Alright,” Nikki mumbled, and we all stayed quiet as we continued to look around the helicopter as it made its way to our destination. As we came closer, we saw a bunch of buildings with various colors on them-green and blue ones, mostly. It was very large like a warehouse, with probably the width of this whole city dedicated to one thing alone-to store a lot of things here.

As we reached the landing zone of this massive warehouse building that seemed to be almost as tall as a skyscraper, we saw that there were more helicopters and a couple of black vans parked along the side of the warehouse. We also noticed several people in black suits and ties running towards us as we landed our helicopter in the middle of the lot where all the other helicopters were landing.

We all got out of our helicopters, but the agents began to gather themselves in formation as they started walking towards the helicopter we arrived in. Once they did this they all began to look at us and give us a smile. “Okay,” Fulton whispered as he walked next to me, “let’s just go along with whatever they say and everything should be good.”

“Alright,” I said. “What are you gonna be doing?”

“What I do best,” Fulton said with a smile. “Cameras.” I nodded, not quite understanding what he meant by that until he pointed to his eyes. Then I realized that he meant that he would be using his camera vision in order to scout out our surroundings. He took out his camera from his jacket pocket and began to use his eyes in order to capture all of our surroundings.

“See?” he said, pointing towards something out of our line of sight as he said, “I’m watching everything.” Then he put his camera back into his pocket as he said, “Alright everyone, let’s go in.”
