My eyebrows went up in surprise. Gavin had super-hearing abilities.
"Hey Gavin, could you stay by the gate, to you know, listen in on things?", Jack asked intrigued by the news. Gavin nodded and moved towards the gate.
'Did you know that he had that?', I mentally asked Jack. He shook his head.
Suddenly the alarms went off, and a red light, that I had not noticed, started blinking. "SECURITY BREACH, INTRUDER INTRUDER, PROTECTION WALLS ALPHA LEVEL FOUR", the loudspeaker started screeching out. Gavin covered his ears, and I looked around in utter shock. I knew that we would we rescued, but not this soon. Jack also seemed a bit off.
From what we could see from our cell, heavy looking doors vertically clamped shut over the already locked doors. I looked around in panic, looking for someone, anyone to save us. But, of course, I was ripped from my previous life, and pulled into a science-Fiction one; no one at all would ever come to save us. But... We were their experiments... But again, they probably had a thousand more to think about and protect. Gavin held up a finger and I stopped. Jack also turned to look at him. After a few minutes passed, Gavin opened his eyes and told us what was happening, or really, what the guards were telling each other.
"The Guards were talking about setting their more powerful troops around us. The people that apparently want to get us out of here are called "The Moderatoris"", he said solemnly. "It literally translates to 'controllers' in Latin".
I hid a gasp.
So, are they going to be rescued, or get thrown into another trap?-Pegasusathena28
