“Good evening Crash Queens, Tumble-weeds and Motor-babies. Dr Death Defying here giving you an update. A fellow Killjoy, Kobra Kid got taken by the Dracs and is being held their. If you see the Fabulous Killjoys, don't be afraid to give them some backup. Their risking their lives to save a fellow brother. I'm signing off for the night but not before I leave you some slaughtermatic sounds to keep you alive” we heard fuzzily through the speakers of the car. Now that Dr D had put the announcement out, we were hoping to get more recruits.
An hour passed and still nothing. “We're doing this on our own then” Gee said in a hushed tone. We nodded and we're about to execute the plan. “Before we do this, I think it's good we know every ones names first” he said. He knew we weren't gonna make it out alive. “This is basically a suicide mission and if we get out of here alive, we're lucky” he said.
“OK My real name is Dani” Cyanide said, crouching close to Frank, shaking like mad. Frank instinctively wrapped his arms around her to calm her down. She relaxed and melted into him.
“My name is Victoria” Battery said.
“I'm Kelly” Gunner replied.
“OK. I'm Gerard or Gee for short, that's Frank, Jet Star is Frank and the girl is Krista. Inside they have Mikey and believe me, if we don't get him out, we'll feel her wrath” he grinned. I shot him a look but ended up grinning afterwards.
“You know me so well” I laughed. “Anyway, if this is a suicide mission we better say anything we wanna say before we go in and get ourselves killed. I, personally, think we'll make it out alive” I whispered. Everyone nodded and started whispering to each other. I suddenly felt extremely lonely as everyone kissed and hugged each other and I fought to hold the tears back. Gee was the only one to notice.
“You ok?”
“No. I'm lonely and now you guys all have someone and if we don't get him out, I'm gonna be lonely forever” I whispered, feeling the tears fall down my face. I suddenly felt squished by everyone hugging me. “We need to get him out. We need him, I need him and if we can't then just...”
“If you tell us to kill you, no deal. We'll get you in there, get you to him and then we're all getting out alive” Ray said, arm around Kelly. I took a deep breath and wiped my face, pulling my bandanna back up.
“Well, Killjoys, let's make some noise” I grinned, pulling myself up, dusting myself off and making a lead through the blind spots in the cameras.
“It's been hours since you got brought here. Are you sure your fellow Killjoys are really coming for you?” I didn't bother answering him. In my mind I knew they were and they were probably thinking of strategy instead of running in, gunning everything down. I hoped they were coming because if they weren't, it would hurt more than the drugs, injections and beatings they were giving me. I hoped Krista was coming at least. That would completely kill me if she wasn't. “I'll take that as a no. Well, willing to give them up now seei-- what? I'm busy” he said, watching as a Drac walked over to him, whispering something into his ear. “I see. So they have come after all? Ah perfect. Well it seems like they have come for you” he grinned. I just wanted to punch him in the face and not stop until he was broken. “The girl of yours has managed to take out the guards but they avoided the outside cameras. She's very clever isn't she?”
“She's smarter than you think” I replied, grinning slightly. I felt a sense of calm wash over me, whether it was from the drugs or the fact they were still alive and coming for me.
“Give him some more of the fun shots we have for him. We're going to need him later” Korse said. I looked at the Drac walking toward me with a needle in his hand.
No Ones POV:
They managed to infiltrate the base and killed all the guards. It was just a matter of time before they had been noticed and someone had alerted the one in charge. They ran through the base, checking all levels. They had been running around and shooting for 45 minutes before finding the holding cells. “Where is he? Gee why isn't he here? We didn't get it wrong did we?”
“No we didn't. They must have him somewhere else” he said quietly. She could feel herself shaking with terror, rage and hurt.
“If they've done anything to him, I'll make them pay” she whispered, angrily. She walked off and headed toward the next floor to continue their search. She was shaking to the point she couldn't hold her gun straight. Gerard walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her.
“You need to relax other wise you wont be able to shoot a thing” he said, gently, looking at her. “Trust me, I'm gonna shoot the shit out of them when I see them but your too angry and you'll miss if you keep trembling like this” he said gently. She nodded and took a deep breath and buried her face into his chest and let the tears out. He looked at the others sympathetically and they kept guard.
“I'm sorry” she said, pulling away from him. He smiled gently at her.
“It's OK. You need to get yourself calm before we continue otherwise you might shoot one of us by accident and it won't go down well” he said. She nodded and wiped her eyes. “Better?”
“Much. Sorry for crying.”
“It's OK. I know you care for him more than anything right now and you wanna save him and get him out this hell hole” he answered. She nodded.
“I love him. It wasn't until he got taken that I understood what that meant” she whispered. He nodded and they continued up the stairs, shooting any Drac that got in the way.
They ran along every corridor and through every room until they found an open space. “This must be the S/c/a/r/e/c/r/o/w unit” Victoria said, almost in a whisper.
“Well done for working that one out genious” Dani said, sarcastically.
“Don't start, we're on a mission” Kelly said. They hushed and watched as Krista snuck around and found the Dracs pulling something over someones head. She recognised the hair colour. Bright blonde.
“Oh shit.”
