The Cover Up

Chapter Seventeen

Alaina's P.O.V.

"Yes. Ok, Trinity is in her spot." I say through my com. Taylor, Zack, and I break into the building. Zack goes left, Taylor right, and me straight. I walk down the dark hallway. It's cemented and has dim lights. I see the first door on my right. I try to open it first, but it's locked. Go figure. I kick it down and find drugs in the room. "Found a drug room." I say through my com. I look around for anybody, but don't see anyone. I walkout and two men are walking down the hallway. Dammit, they see me. They pull out their guns, but I shoot first. They both go down. I run to them and pull them into the room. There heavy men too. I put them in the back where they can't be seen easily and grab one of their walkie talkies.

I walk back out the room and start walking down the hallway again. I hear voices in front of me and stop walking. "Alaina, take cover. Three men are coming your way." I hear Sky say through my com. I look around. There are bars above me. I put my gun in my back and pull myself up to hide myself.

"Yes. She died. There was to much in her system." One of the guys says. I make no noise and make sure I'm not breathing heavily.

"Take care of it." One of the other one says and walks to the right. Most likely the boss.

"Taylor three men." I say through my com.

"Got it." He says. I get down from the bars and continue walking. I fins a room with with people. They look very sick. "Found the hostages." I say through my com.

"Teams on your way." Sky says through com. I brake the door and all heads go to me.

"I'm here to get you out. Please stand if you can." I say. They do it right way. "Can anyone not stand?" I ask looking around the room. They all seem to be standing.

"We can stand." A women says. I nod my head at her.

"Ok, I'm going to lead you out the room. I need a strong person in the back." I look and see a the most stable person. "Follow the hallway. You will see to men. Do as they say. We are here to help you." I say and start getting people out the room.

"Sam check on the prisoners." I hear the walky talky say.

"Ok, move as fast as you can." I tell them. They jog slowly. Why do they have to be so sick? I ask myself, but knowing the answer. That's why your here. A voice says in my head.

"Sam, check in." The walky says and the person sounds agitated.

"They aren't moving fast enough. We need them out." I say through com.

"Alaina, two men coming your way." Sky says. We knew this was going to be tight, but I thought I'd have more time.

"Got it." I say and run down the hallway. I see to men running down the hallway towards me.

"There escaping." I hear over the walkie. They see me and pull out their guns. I go to shoot when someone knocks it out of my hand. I turn around and knock him out. Then the other two point guns at me. I raise my hands, but then they go down. I turn and see Taylor. I nod my head at him and we run back to the hostages. He goes further down the line to keep people moving. When one of the last people come up to me.

"They have bombs. There going to sell them and use one today." She says.

"I'll handle it." I say and she nods her head. I turn and run down the hallway.

"Alaina, what are you doing?" I hear Greg say through the com.

"There selling bombs. I'm going to see if it's true." I say and run down another hallway.

"Don't. The cops will check the whole place." He says and sounds frustrated.

"There going to use one soon. I'm going." I say and make another turn. I see and room and brake into it. There is two men there with a bomb. They pull their guns out, but it's too late, I've hit them both. I look at the bomb. It's beeping. I look for a timer. 2 minutes and 12 seconds. "Get everyone out now. There's a bomb. I'll try to deactivate it." I say to all open coms. I look at the bomb wires trying to figure out where to even start.
