Chapter 4: The sauna test

It was night time, Erica stayed in the shop, while we went to the roof of the building, where we were yesterday.

"Erica, do you copy?" Robin quietly asks with the walkie talkie.

"Mm-hmm, i copy, you nerds on position or what?"

"Yeah, we're in position, it's all quiet here, so you've got green light," Robin answers.

"Green light, roger that, commence operation Child endangerment."

"Can we maybe not call it that?" Robin rolls her eyes.

"See you on the other side. Nerds," was all Erica said, completely ignoring Robin.

A while after, Erica talks again, "All right, nerds, I'm there."

"Do you see anything?"

"Yeah i see those boring boxes you're so excited about,"

"Any guards?" Robin asks.

"Negative."

"Booby traps?"

"If i could see them, they'd be pretty shit traps, wouldn't they?" Erica says back.

"Thank you for that," Robin says in a sarcastic tone.

We then hear from the walkie-talkie a yell and something being hit, "I'm in,"

"Oh, god," Steve sighs, covering his face with his hands.

"I just know, that we're gonna regret this," i sigh.

Then the doors opened, and Erica came out, "Free ice-cream for life, and a personal driver," she says, as i groan, remembering the pact.

We look at each other, before getting down the building and entering where the boxes were.

Steve grabs a box, puts it on the table extending his arm, "Y/n, the cutter,"

I put my hand in my pocket, before handing the tool to my brother, he grabs it and opens the box.

We saw another box, but in metal this time, he glanced at us before taking the handle and turning it, opening it, air came out of the box, we leaned over, and saw four handles.

"That's definitely not Chinese food," Steve comments.

"No shit," i say, raising my eyebrows.

"Uh, maybe you guys should, you know, stand back," Steve says, moving his arm back and forth, telling us to get further.

Erica and Robin stand back, rolling their eyes, while Dustin refuses.

"No,"

"Just step back, okay?" Steve says pushing away Dustin.

"No,"

"Step back, seriously."

"No! No!" Dustin yells, as we all look weirdly at him.

"If you die, i die," Dustin says, as Steve just looks at him.

"What the hell are you- Oh my god," i said getting frustrated, throwing my head back.

"Okay," Steve says, getting on of the the handles, turning it, he pulled it up and showed a green liquid in it.

"What is that?" Robin says, with furrowed eyebrows.

Suddenly the whole room moved, "Was that just me, or did the room move?" Dustin says, looking up at the ceiling.

"It was just you," I say sarcastically.
