Today's the day, the rescue operation for my sister. I meet Kane, Riley, and the rest of the rebels to review our plan. Kane starts off "from the front entrance of Gene we shall split up into three groups. The rebels will split into two, one for the right side and one for the left. As for our elites and snipers will charge through middle. As we already know this is very risky without planning much, but on the bright side the enemy would never suspect we would attack so early!" The whole building is filled of shouts and chants which makes me smile a bit. "So, are you ready to do this." Bronx says from behinds me.
"Definitely, I just want my sister to be safe, and as for you... just please take care for her and treat her right." Tears begin to gather in my eyes. Oh, please be ok! He gives me an understanding nod. "Now, all groups take separate hovercrafts...it's time." I can't explain what I'm feeling, a mixture of excitement and fear.

We're here, and I've never taken up this beautiful gold sunset. "Go!" I hear Madison say. And we do and I feel rebellious, all of us running at the same speed until we eventually depart and Gene notices us. Gunshots go off, more soldiers rush in and it's a bloodbath. Thoughts rush in my head, was this plan too risky? I push my thoughts away, we're here now, there's no turning back. I'm running so fast I think my legs might fall off. Now I'm not that far from the building but something is wrong. I catch a glimpse of Quil and the workers of the building and then the last person out throws a Molotov that engulfs the building with flames. I yell at group A to get them. And that's when I see her, Alice and she yells for me just like in my dream but she seems very skinny like she hasn't ate. I run to her and I reach for her hand but before I can the entrance tumbles down and I quickly snatch my arm out. "Are you still there, Alice!"
"Yes!" A wave of relief washes over me.
"Okay I need you to back away!"
"Okay." I pull out my c4 and attach it to the debris then back up, the force knocks me off my feet and a large piece hits my torso. I hear Alice scream and quickly run inside forgetting about my injury. I don't see her, where did she go? Until I see a white figure that must be a soldier, I climb the debris and catch Alice running around a corner just to run right after her. When I turn the corner I get my walkie talkie and order to send a latter for Alice. "Alice! Listen to me ok I need you to get down this ladder, I have to get this done!"
"No! Don't do this, please!"
"I have to ok, I'll be okay!" I say while caressing her arms. The rebels come to take her down. I take one final glance at her glassy eyes before I run after the soldier. When I turn the next corner the soldier knocks me to the ground and while I try to push the soldier off of me I Analyze the face and realize it's a girl, not just a girl but a girl that I recognize, it's Taylor. "You traitor!" I yell.
"Yeah, well tell that to your sister, because now they know where your hideout is!"
My eyes widen. Oh no! The civilians! I shake her off me and elbow her, while she's distracted I scramble away from her and throw a grenade which sends half of the floor tumbling down. I did it! I look out the window and wave to Alice smiling, but she isn't, her eyes are widened horror and her mouth look like she is screaming no while someone motions me out of the way and when I turn around Taylor is there and connects her white boot with my chest and sends me flying through the window to the ground.
