"Thanks," I say, as the waitress hands me my coffee.
I sigh in relief, looking around the empty shop. A plate of fries awaits in front of me, I quickly start to eat. Sloane would have a fit if she saw me right now.
I miss her. And Ben. And that plate of cake I turned down. I'm still furious at that.
How do I get back? How did I get here in the first place? All I remember is falling, then ending up outside...
I'm not even sure if I want to go back honestly. It's just... better here. They actually understand that I don't want to talk.
I drink my coffee, still deep in thought, and then look up.
Half of my fries have disappeared onto a second plate.
That plate is Five's
I look at him in shock, as he just casually steals my fries. I don't think he realises I saw him commit an outrageous crime.
He leaves to go get something from the counter, and I take the opportunity to take back my food.
He comes back, holding 2 to go cups, and says nothing, putting one down in front of me.
"You doing alright?" He finally asks, sitting opposite me.
"I'll be fine. Thanks for asking though."
He just looks at me.
I get the feeling he doesn't believe me.
"You know, you don't have to lie to me. I can see you're not OK."
"I'm fine. Now stop stealing my damn fries"
Ding ding
A/N I was honestly considering just putting insert bell noise here and I might change it later
We both look up, 2 figures walking in the door. Both wearing uniforms and kiddie masks.
Five pulls me under the table suddenly.
"Shh"
"What the hell are you doing?" I whisper sharply.
"Getting us out of here alive," He shoots back.
The hell does he mean, getting us out of here alive? He's not telling me something...
And then I see it.
The uniform they have. The guns. The way Five lowers his breath when they walked past the table.
Not that I was paying attention to him or anything. Nothing of the sort...
"You take her, I'll distract him," Five states, in a 'don't question my judgement' kind of way.
I nod. I've trained for this, and all I need to do is get away.
"Just get back to the academy, don't come looking for me and don't look back. I'll be an hour or 2"
He leaves me under the table, and teleports him and the guy away, leaving me alone.
With the enemy.
Quietly, I take a knife from the table, and, crouching low, manages to get behind the counter without being seen.
The woman turns towards me as I make it behind the counter.
Ok, maybe I was seen. Whoops.
"Put the knife down honey. I'm not here to hurt you"
Damn, a liar. But I admire her confidence.
I slowly emerge from the counter, putting down the knife.
Calling her bluff.
"There we go..."
She also puts down her weapon.
I'm very disappointed. Thought this would be harder.
I teleport behind her, knocking her out, before going through my pockets.
I put $20 on the counter before walking out, holding my coffee.
That was interesting.
A/N: I'll admit, I deviated away from the series a bit but I like this storyline
