"Okay, here's the plan. We're gonna get you to the elevator. Then i'm gonna grab the source. Reach for the suit.."

"Dad uhm..." charlie interrupts him.

"what," he looks at him as we run.

"A little thing about the source," his voice gets higher.

"wait- don't.. please," he stops charlie from running, making us all stop behind them.

"Look at me. Charlie please tell me they don't have the source," his dad says.

"oh! he doesn't. Yeah.. we made sure of it," charlie says.

"Yeah.. charlie employé une diversion classique, he pointed a decoy source and fooled them," i told him.

"Really," he asks. "Yeah, very cool," i say.

Charlie smiles while nodding at me then to his dad.

"That does sound cool," he pants.

"Uh.. Mr. Kincaid, sorry to interrupt and i actually think fanny packs are having a moment right now..." lizzie speaks up

"thank you," mr. kincaid thanks.

"Why just the glove? Why not the whole suit," lizzie asks. "Cause i ran out of power. You can't get the whole suit without the power," he tells her.

He starts walking, "so which one of you have the source?"

"I threw it in a portal," berger says. "and i kind of zapped it and now it's gone," big mac finishes berger's sentence.

"portal? what do you mean, zapped it," mr. kincaid asks.

Something blasts and it hit him in the shoulder, making him fall back into a rock structure and breaking through.

"Mr kincaid," we all shout to him. Charlie kneels down and we see argon in an armor suit.

"Hiding the suit in a fanny pack, huh," he laughs.

Mr. Kincaid groans on the floor, clutching his shoulder.

"dad.. dad" charlie says.

"You think it only works for you? You're not special. You're not the chosen one. The truth is... you're the recipient of dumb luck," argon leans down to charlie's dad.

"you may have the suit.. but you don't have the swagger," he groans.

Argon slowly leans back and aims something at him. "You don't think i got swagger," he whispers. He stops aiming then does like a body roll and dance. Very uncomfortable.

"Where's the source," he asks us.

"I'll never tell you," berger says. He aims a glowing orange thing at us. Lizzie starts screaming and berger does as well. "It's at school in my locker," he screams, blurting out the location.

"Berger!" charlie shouts.

"Grab the kid. Let's get outta here," argon puts the hand away.

"I'm changing the access codes."

"Come on," jersey grabs berger and takes him.

"No, berger," i shout.

"No! Leave him alone," lizzie says. "Berger," maya calls out to him. We were all shouting for him.

"dad..."

He keeps groaning, not saying anything. We just watched, not knowing what to do. "dad!"

———

bang

"Charlie," he gasps out.

We all got startled and look at charlie's dad when he jolted up from his unconscious state.

"What's going on? What's happening," he asks, sitting up from the couch.

"Thank god you're okay," charlie says. "Charlie. what's happening?!"

"dad. dad here's the deal. here's the deal," charlie tries to calm him.

"This whole place is rigged with frickin bombs, alright? We got five minutes to get out of here. save berger and get the source," charlie tells him.

Irons came from the entrance looking frustrated. "I can't believe you took the source to school," charlie's dad sighs in frustration.

"No time for parenting, dad! How do we get out of here," charlie raises his voice a bit.

"There's an escape hatch above the gym," he says.

"Not an option. Systems locked down," irons tells him. "What," mr. kincaid questions.

"argon changed all these access codes. Everything is encrypted now," he explains.

Mr. Kincaid tries to get up from the couch, but charlie stops him.

"You stay here," charlie tells him. "No-"

"Blue eyea, fix him up," charlie tells irons. "The name is captain sean irons-"

"sh, sh. zip it," charlie makes his hand close telling him to shush.

Irons' eyes widen, but don't say anything.

"Lizzie, maya. you two crack the code, so we can get access to the system."

"Y/n and I will print enough jetpacks for all of us, alright," he orders everyone.

We all just nod and listen. "we will?" i question, unsure.

"I trust you.. do you trust me," he asks.

"I do.."
