Andi

"It's time."

Heath's voice whispered through the phone, informing Andi to begin to carry out her end of the plan. She clicked several links on the computer sitting up and turning on several lights so people would be able to see. She typed the title of the stream, "DDA Exposed - LIVE!" and hit enter. A countdown on the screen told Andi to get ready.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

The webcam shutter opened. 3 people were already watching; the YouTube channel had been Andi's idea, after all, and within days it had gained over 100 subscribers. It wasn't a lot, but it was a start.

Taking a deep breath, Andi watched the viewer count rise to 10.

"In just a little while, you will witness the true nature of the DDA. In just a little while, you will watch my friends infiltrate their headquarters. If any of you knuckleheads are watching, know this - we're on our way, and you won't get away with this."

The viewer count spiked up to 67. All was going according to plan, especially if the DDA knew Andi's friends were coming.

Madi

"Yeah, mom, just drop me off here."

Madi's mother was skeptical. "A bonfire all the way out here? I don't know about this... you guys are only in Junior High."

Madi tried her hardest to seem "cool." "Mom, everyone will be there. Don't worry, we can handle ourselves."

Madi began to open the door, her mom gave her one last look.

"Do you have your banana?"

Madi winked, holding up her yellow, peel-able fruit. "Just in case."

Getting out into the dust, Madi held up her phone to see if she had service. One bar. Hopefully she could still message her friends.

"I'm here, where are you?"

Send.

Ding.

"Here."

Madi turned around to see Heath, Lauren, Justin and Maci, all waiting to go.

"The facility is just about a half mile off. Are we ready to do this...?" Heath asked.

Everyone nodded.

Madi gulped. "Well, let's get going."

Andi

"Are you guys almost there?"

Looking back to the viewers, of which there were about 300 by now, Andi smiled. "Sorry, just texting my friends to make sure I can hand this whole thing off to them."

Andi viewed some of the comments in the stream's chat.

"Is this even real?"

"I highly doubt it."

Ding.

Andi hastily checked her phone. "My friend Heath's got a GO Pro, and he's ready."
