Resurrection
Vivian was putting chairs in front of the doors as Jasper was telling people what to do.
"Jasper, where do you want this?" Miller asked as he dragged the frame of a bunk bed.
"Put it here. Over the weak spots to make sure they don't get in." Jasper instructed.
"We took the level. But now we need to hold it." Vivian pointed out, stacking the chairs.
"They will be coming, and we need to be ready." Jasper said as Harper walked by. "Harper, get some pots from the kitchen. Fill them with water, big as you can find." He added, and Harper nodded.
"I'll help." Vivian offered, and the two walked off to the kitchen.
"Why does Jasper need water?" Harper asked as they filled the pots.
"When the guards come, Jasper said that they're probably going to use the smoke bombs that they used at the dropship. I suggested that we put them in water when they get thrown in." Vivian replied, handing her a pot of water.
"That's smart." Harper said.
"Thanks." Vivian said with a small smile, blowing hair out of her face.
________
Vivian helped Harper put the pots of water around the room, then sat down next to her.
There was an explosion down the hall, causing Vivian to stand up.
"What the hell was that?" Vivian asked, and Monty showed her the tablet.
"They're coming." Monty confirmed.
"We're not ready for this." Fox panicked, and Vivian grabbed her shoulders so Fox would look at her.
"Yes, we are. I promise nothing is going to happen to you." Vivian promised, and Fox nodded. Vivian looked over at Jasper, who was watching them.
"Just follow the plan. We'll be okay. I promise." Jasper said.
"Okay." Fox said, looking at the two of them.
"No guns. You were right." Monty said, coming over to them.
"That's because they can't kill us. Like Vivian said. Not like this anyway." Jasper replied, looking around.
"Be careful with that thing. We're in close. It could hit one of us." Miller told Harper who at a gun, and she nodded.
"Wait a second, some of them aren't wearing hazmat suits." Monty pointed out, and Vivian closed her eyes, letting the fact sink in.
"What's that mean?" Miller asked.
"It means they're cured. The marrow treatments worked." Jasper informed.
"Well, they won't be working for long." Vivian growled. She heard the guards at the door and tightened her grip around the knife in her hand.
"Get ready." Jasper said as the guards started to take down the door.
"Here they come." Vivian said, standing next to Miller.
The guards took the door down and threw over the smoke grenades. The delinquents got into action and started to throw them into the water and lay on the ground to pretend that they were last out.
Vivian slowly opened her eyes, seeing that one of the guards was standing right by her, in a hazmat suit. Her eyes roamed over to see one of the guards picking the smoke grenad out of the water. Her heart was racing, but she pushed it to the side.
