The Techno Bandits

Chapter 7

Pitch's POV
"Thanks for helping me Hazel" I said. We're setting up a trap for Griffin at one of our warehouses. "Of course. I didn't want to be at the house while Griffins there. She's onto us already" she said. "Yeah, but that's all part of our plan" I said. "Yeah... hey by the way, if you want to talk I'm here" she said. I turned around to face her. She gave me a crooked smile. "She's your sister. I cant imagine how much this hurts for you" she said. She took my hand. "I just cant believe she'd do this. I cant believe I didn't notice sooner. I knew she was acting weird but I didn't want to think that maybe, she might be a threat" I said. She squeezed my hand and then let go. "Its ok Pitch. We're here for you. Four out of five is better than nothing, right?" She asked. I nodded. She turned around and reached up for the pipe but she couldn't reach it. "Let me help you" I said. I lifted her onto my shoulders. "Woah! Thanks" she said, fixing the pipe. She smells really good and her skins very soft. "You can put me down you know" she said. I snapped out of it. "Oh! Right" I put her down. She giggled when she looked at me. "Someone's blushing" she said. I only got redder. "We should go" I said. "Yeah" she smiled and we left.

Harpers POV
"Harper? Where are we gonna go after this? We cant come back" Pyro said, packing her bag. I sighed. "It'll be ok Pyro. We'll find somewhere to call our own. Besides we can survive in the truck until then" I said. "I guess" she said. We cant take our car because Michael has a tracker on it. We have to take Pyros pick-up truck because Michael didn't put a tracker in it. He was hoping that Pyro would get lost and not come back. "Come on, lets load the truck" I said as we left the empty room.

Griffins POV
I got a text from Pitch. "Meet us at warehouse six" she sent. I raised an eyebrow. "What the hell are they doing there?" I asked myself.

I pulled up at the warehouse. There's no cars out here. That's strange. I walked into the warehouse. Its empty. This isn't right. The lights went out and turned back on. All four of them stood in front of me. "What kind of fucked up magic show is this?" I asked. "Griffin, you sabotaged us" Harper snarled. "Excuse me?" I asked. "You messed up our maps on purpose" Pyro added. "You made me think I wasnt good enough" Harper said. "You disabled our coms" Pitch said. "You raped me" Hazel spat. I took a step back and glared at Hazel. She was supposed to keep that a secret. "You have no proof" I said. "Your face right now is proof enough" Harper said. "You lied to us. Why?" Pitch asked. "Michael offered me a deal I couldn't refuse. You'll understand one day" I said. "When that day comes, you wont be here" Hazel said. "What?" I asked with a laugh. They all raised an eyebrow at me. "Oh wow. You think that the four of you can beat me? I'm better than all of you. There's a reason I'm just the computer girl" I said. "Maybe, but you're not the only one who can work with technology" Harper said gesturing next to her. That's when I realized Pyro was gone. "What did you do?" I asked in fear. When she has the right motivation, Pyro can be very dangerous. "We let the fireworks loose" Hazel said. A loud boom went off outside and shook the ground. It was small. Several other small explosions surrounded us. Smoke started to enter the building. The red warning lights started flashing. "What are you doing! You're gonna get us killed!" I said. "Not us, just you" Harper said. "You agreed to this?" I pulled Pitch's shirt so she's at my level. "I agreed to stop you. Besides I could have died in that building that you had Pyro blow up. You lied to me! Now let go of me" she growled. I let go in shock. Pitch was the only thing that mattered but if this is what she chooses than so be it. "Fine! Go! See what I care. Ill be back for you Pitch! I Promise I will!" I yelled. They ran out the back before the door crumbled.

Pitch's POV
"Good one Pyro, lets go" harper said. We went to the truck. "Whos gonna drive?" Hazel asked. "Ill do it" I said. "Pitch are you sure you can drive right now?" Harper asked. "Let me drive. I can do it" I said, getting in. Hazel got in the passenger and Pyro and Harper got in the back. We drove away from the building. "Pyro?" We all asked. "Boom" she said calmly. The bomb went off as soon as she said it. The sound came from behind us, followed by a wave of smoke. Griffins gone. We betrayed Michael. There's no going back now. "Road trip anyone?" Harper asked. "Lets find a pit stop and we can figure out where to go in the morning" hazel said. "Sounds good" harper agreed.

After several miles, I pulled into a gas station. I cracked open a window for circulation and powered down the truck. Pyro is asleep on top of Harper. Theyre cuddled in a blanket together. Hazel looks cold. I reached back and grabbed two blankets. I put one on her and one on myself. I leaned my chair back and stared at the ceiling. Hazel turned over to look at me. "You're awake!" I said, surprised. "Barely. Thanks" she said, gesturing to the blanket. I nodded. She took my hand in hers. "We're gonna be ok Pitch" she yawned. "I know. Goodnight Hazel" I said. "Night Pitch" she said.
