Underground Spies

Rescue

After a few hours of rushing around collecting stuff, double and triple checking, we finally set off on the labours ride to the airport. Each further minute that past, me and my team alike, became more and more anxious. We finally arrive, after what felt like a decade, at a glamorous jet set to Wisk us away to the enemy base in Nepal.

The flight itself deduced to nothing more than attempting to calm nerves and be optimists or sleep away any further thoughts. I sat beside Ava and Scarlett as we endured this stress fest and tried to entertain ourselves on the long flight. When we eventually arrived all of us sprung from the plane like excited puppies.

We were required to stay quiet as we were a few miles away from our target location. As we came close to it we were astounded by the buildings grace and elegance. How could something so beautiful hold such a menacing threat?

We stuck inside and were about to pursue our normal tactic when we heard a voice call from a balcony above.

"Guys! GUYS STOP IT'S A TRAP!" L yelled panicked, chained to the railings with Ali beside her. before we took another step the floor in front of us caved in creating an ominous cavern at our feet. A glint of the sunlight raised my suspicion to a thin peace of wire raised just above the floor. So that was their plan?

At further inspection the whole place looked abandoned on the inside. Clearly no-one had been staying here for a while now. Whilst Ava and Darcie took photos of our discovery, me and Scarlett contemplated how to reach L and Ali with the now non-existent floor. I yanked a length of rope out of my backpack and flung it up to L before proceeding to climb up while L began untying Ali.

"Are you... guys... alright"? I manage to let out between heavy breaths.

"Yeah, We managed to take down their first line of defences but they had back-up and we were over run!" Ali almost shouted glad to be free of the chains chaffing at her wrists.

We all made our decent off of the balcony and out of the vicinity of this mystery house. Something told me it was not the last time we were gonna meet that house... and it's residents.
