City of Misfortune

Chapter 20 Nala

I didn't know what my plan was to help everyone, I just knew I had to get caught. In order to get caught we all had to go one by one. We had to let Sivers think he had the the upper hand.

The first person who had to go was Stiles, he could find our parents and figure out a way to free them before we got there. Then Jasper had to get caught so he could set off the systems to where we were held. Jason will follow him and eventually take the place of Jasper so they would think he was always with them. The third to be caught would be Tamara she's going to hype everyone up saying that Ro and I knows where they are and will come get all of them. She will tell every single detail of the plan that I told her about.

I won't tell her everything in case they think she's lying about something. Ro will be caught by doing exactly what I told Tamara he will be waiting in his spot when the time is right. Luca will be at their headquarters trying to act as if he is betraying me, he will give my location on where to find me. Eventually they will get me and I won't fight, I'll go. Thinking that Sivers won't do any of the work himself, I'm hoping they will let me see him, before they do anything.

Everyone seemed on board for the plan before we left the house to go get Tamara. We went the way with the most transients. Everyone hid except for Stiles.

He pulled me over to the side when we were halfway there. "No matter what happens I love you and always will. If I don't see you again just remember that okay. You will always have family, you built one of your own and you don't even know it. Keep your chin up kid no matter what. Got it?"

"Got it. But don't act like I won't see you again, this story doesn't end that way. I'm writing it and I don't have time to write heartaches. I love you too. You will always be my brother, and if you go missing I won't stop looking for you."

He ruffled my hair and kept walking. Once we were close he gave me a goodbye hug and kiss. He ran up behind one transient and tackled him down and took off running making them chase after him.

"Surprise football," he yelled while running and pusing transients.

We all ran to the school as soon as possible, it had to be around lunch time now. Ro knew where to go so we followed. The halls were empty and loud noises came from the gymnasium. I peeped inside to find out it was a pep rally going on.

"So do we go in, or what," Luca asked from the side of me.

"I guess-" Ro pushed the doors open before I could finish my sentence. "So."

We followed behind him staying to the side of the gym while the dancers were performing. I scanned the crowd for Tamara and couldn't see her.

"Should I just go and call on her," Jasper asked.

"No, you can't be seen with us when everything happens," I told him. I sighed out of frustration and said, "Fuck it. I'll just do it. If I'm going to make chaos out of everything, might as well go big or go home."

Without giving them to time to stop me, I went over to the announcer who was about to start talking. I grabbed the mic out of his hand and the crowd went silent.

"Um excuse me. I need Tamara to come with me right now," I said into the mic. I saw a person get up from the far high left corner coming down.

"Nala!?" Several even people said in the crowd shocked that I was here.
"Yes it's me, I never died or whatever story you've heard. But right now I'm just trying to help a lot of you ungrateful kids. So if Tamara could please come down that would help a lot."

Tamara came down looking worried. I handed the mic back to the announcer and grabbed onto Tamara so we could leave.

"I'll explain when we're out of here so just wait," I whispered to her. She nodded and ran over to Ro checking on his head.
