Chapter 17: A House On Fire

You and Ichigo had been driving for so long, the sun had started to come up.  You would've stopped for coffee to help you stay awake, but that's what had gotten Naomi into this situation in the first place.

Naomi was having her trial later on, but you and Ichigo were going to help her before she had a chance to suffer conviction.  Apparently, Naomi was such a big deal that there wasn't a need for any deep investigation of her location, people were talking about it everywhere. 

About Naomi the sun killer.  But you and Ichigo both knew that wasn't true.  Along with these rumours, even the location of the cell that she was put in was published.  A stupid move on the medias part, but a great advantage for you and Ichigo. 

In the hours of early morning, Ichigo set up various devices which you didn't know the names of on a wall.  Before you had left, he had permitted you to draw out a copy of a map of the prison, using a picture from his laptop as a reference. 

The plan was, blow through a wall with minimal security, but also not somewhere you'd free any other criminals, and then treck to the highest floor, bust Naomi out alive, and escape a different way, as to not risk being caught in the area of interest. 

You felt butterflies swimming in your stomach, and you fought the urge to be sick from nervousness. "Ready?" Ichigo asked, coming to stand next to you with a device which you assumed was a detonator. You weren't, but you told him otherwise, and he pressed the button.

As soon as the sound of rubble hitting the floor had started, Ichigo grabbed your hand, running forward and vaulting the small stack of bricks that prevented a smooth sprint. You were surprised from the sudden action, but got over safely. "The closest stairs are just to the right of here."

Ichigo nodded, taking off with you following him. There were four floors to the building, you and Ichigo were forced into a janitor cupboard on the second to avoid the posted security guards that ran through the corridor to the source of the noise.

It didn't take long for the thundering of footsteps to pass, and you continued, Ichigo being led hurriedly by you, his sense of direction hadn't improved much after all.

There was uncomfortable screaming aimed in your direction, most of the captives hoping the breakout was for them. You wondered if freeing a few would make a good distraction, but there was no guarantee of your survival if you freed people who wound up in the more guarded parts of the prison.

There were a few iron doors, but Ichigo seemed to be experienced. "Oxygen makes up a high percentage of most common iron, here, stand back." He used some other device on each of these, and the metal bubbled away, leaving a hole big enough to climb through, and Ichigo warned you against touching the edges due to the heat.

Eventually, with help from you that he would not have made it this far without, you saw Naomi's head perk up from her cross legged position on the floor.  Ichigo quietly passed Naomi something that looked like sticks of dynamite, and a long rope through the bars.

Naomi smiled at him, "run, Kasai."

Ichigo nodded, and turned, taking hold of your hand. You snuck a glance at Naomi, she was tying the rope around a bar, and had crammed the dynamite into the window bars. You hoped she would survive the explosion, she had to, but you still wanted pull her out before the spark reached the bomb.

Ichigo and you ran straight through the front doors of the place, paying no notice to shouting guards as you both clambered into the car, Ichigo once again taking hold of the broken door. Another loud explosion was heard, and you pulled the wheel to the left to get to the side of the building that Naomi was in.

Obviously, there was a police car after you and Ichigo now. He turned his head towards you, and laughed. "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" And he let go of the car door. It swung around at first, slamming into the frame that it didn't fit, before coming off and making a nails meets chalkboard sound against the pavement, making the police car brake frantically, but not in time.

You didn't see the whole thing play out, neither did Ichigo, but it didn't matter, because you saw Naomi abseiling like a pro at an alarming rate, and told Ichigo to get the passenger door open. He didn't need to though, Naomi jumped the last few feet, and pulled it open herself, laughing.

"You crazy son of a bitch, you went and did it all for little old me?"

Ichigo grinned, "you already know the answer to that."

The three of you whooped in celebration, and you broke every traffic law ever to get away from pursuers. "We're gonna need to ditch the car, kiddos, unless we want to get tracked," Naomi said once you went off the path, intending to drive home instead of walk.

You groaned, but complied with driving even further away to steer trackers off the scent, and in the end, you were given a heavy tool from the trunk to put on the gas pedal, and then the three of you (or rather only two of you) watched the car speed into a bus station, before making your escape.

The rescue had taken a long time, the treck to the house seemed even longer.  Realistically, you were allowed to be tired, you weren't used to running around and escaping the law and blowing things up, all you wanted to do now was take a shower, change into some clean clothes, then go to sleep.  Ichigo and Naomi seemed to be of a similar mindset.

By the time the house had started to come into view, it was already getting dark again.  You were hungry and thirsty, and seeing the sight, you quickened your pace.  However, as you got nearer, and the lower areas of the house were visible, you saw two black cars, identical.

You halted suddenly, Naomi caught up to you, held an arm in front of Ichigo to prevent him from advancing, and cursed.  "They've found us."
