Chapter Seven

We walk into sector seventy, only me, Kenji, Castle and Adam. We are here to meet with the leader of this sector , apparently they have information on Juliette, and I hope they do.

After we enter in through the reception, to see the receptionist.

"Hello, who are you all?" Says a woman, the receptionist. She has tanned skin. Short, dark black hair, thin and going slightly grey. She must be in her early fifties, ish.

"I'm Aaron Warner, I need to speak to your commander, now!" I demand.

The woman clears her throat, picking up a telephone and holding it to her ear, pressing the number buttons on the base, which holds the telephone, then the ringing sound.

"Hello, madam, I've got a man name Aaron Warner here for you."

A muffled, indistinguishable voice comes from the over end of the phone.

"Alright... yes of course madam." She then puts the phone down.

"She is waiting for you, her office is through those double doors and then the door to the left."

Sickness is rising up my throat, spilling up and out of my mouth.

This room soon seems to be closing in on me. Feeling the claustrophobia kick in.

My forehead forms sweat beads and my throat becomes more dry than it already was. My stomach churns, more than it, once again, already was.
My breathing picks up as I am hit with the daunting feeling of being suffocated.

I hate this, I hate being stuck here.

"I want to have no part in this little fuse you and Thomas are having, Warner." Says the leader of sector seventy, Delilah Wicker. "Thomas is the sector neighbouring mine, I do not want to have drama on my own doorstep."

"I understand that, you will be remaining completely anonymous." I agree, to be honest I couldn't care less about this, just tell me where my girlfriend is!

"Alright then," she said, "now that that's out of the way and all sorted," she began, "I saw some of Thomas' men marching around the borders that separates sector seventy and sector seventy one, they were talking about a girl that Thomas had captured and wouldn't let anyone see, saying that she is too dangerous, that she can kill with a single touch".

I feel a pang of relief at the fact that I am ninety percent sure that we know where Juliette is, but still, that confirms that she is there, scared and alone - that just makes me feel miserable and extremely angry.

"Thank you so much, Delilah." I say, standing up and shaking her hand. "Your kindness will not go by unnoticed, I assure you."

"Pleasure doing business with you, Warner." She nods, as I turn to face the door, leaving her office.

I march into the waiting room, to see the three terrified me ... well more like two and Adam, who looks like he's a little worried but also happy because he can see how much this is effecting me.

"So? What happened?!" Kishimoto says.

"I'm about ninety percent sure that I know where she is." I said, earning a breath of relief from Castle and Kenji.

"So where is she, son?" Castle asked.

"Sector seventy one."

Kenji gaps. "What did I say?! I said we shouldn't let someone in who's last name is Gibble! I was right!"

I lock my eyes onto his and give him a death glare. "Not the time, Kishimoto."

He looks down. "Right, sorry."

After that I lose interest in what they are debating, finding myself in my own head, planning on how on earth I'm going to break into sector seventy one, find Juliette, which, I have no idea where in the sector she is, and get us all out uninjured.
Though, we do have the soldiers, which I forgot about until now, that makes this whole thing slightly easier, but it's still not a stable plan, this is Thomas' base, all his army, all his weapons, it's his turf.

What am I going to do?
