•Winter's pov•

I pull into the school lot and park my car in my usual spot. Demi and Lio pull in after me in Lio's car and he parks in his usual spot next to me. Wonder and I get out of my car at the same time my other two brothers get out of Lio's car. Like always, everyone's watching us. The boys standing outside the school are looking more flirtatious than usual. Probably because of my outfit.

I don't why, but for some reason, I wanted to look cute today. I can be bipolar when it comes to clothing. One day, I'll want to wear straight up sweats, a tank top, and an oversized hoodie, the next I'll want to wear shorts and a crop top. As for today, I'm wearing a pair of light washed jeans, a black long sleeved crop top that has a zipper on the front, and black and white Jordans. I had washed my hair last night and I had let it air dry before putting it into two loose braids, so my hair is wavy today.

I close the door and click the button on my key to lock the car. I walk towards Dani who's waiting for me at the front entrance like always since she arrives at school right before me. We walk into the building and go to my locker, but not before stopping at hers which is on the way to mine.

After getting what I need for Trig, World History, and French, I walk with Lizzie (who met us at my locker along with Via) to the classroom where we see Trayvon already sitting in his seat. We take our seats as well and talk until the teacher comes and starts the lesson.

It's now lunch time. The girls and I are sitting on the roof of the school that we got onto somehow. We had to move quickly to avoid the cameras and we had to climb the wall with our stuff in hand. We left our backpacks on the concrete ground right below where we climbed, but we still have our lunch bags.
We sit in a circle in the middle of the roof and start talking about the mission.

"Alright, let's start with Liz." I say.

"Well, I finished all of our suits yesterday and I think you're all going to love them. I won't lie, I made them a little sexy and they're just a tad bit revealing, but it's going to be hot tonight. Plus, who doesn't like to look amazing while doing something badass?" She says and we all chuckle.

"Via?"

"Your tech group and I finished the earpieces. We have to do one more thing to the eye pieces before we're done, but it'll only take a minute. We've also successfully hacked into the cameras and hidden mics in and around the warehouse. All we need is the signal from you to actually deactivate them all."

"Excellent. Em?"

"My father supplied me with new guns. I've chosen the ones that I'll be using, including my sniper. I also have my quiver of arrows and my bow ready just in case."
