"Bellamy." I say, my voice shaking. I had walked around the long tube, just looking at it before we were going to leave. My eyes caught something covered in dust, causing me to have to wipe it off to see it correctly. My heart dropped at the sight of it. It's an old manual dial built into the far back of the huge barrel of acid. It clearly states that the pH is still at 0.
"What is it?" Bellamy asks as he looks up from reloading one of his guns.
"It didn't work." I mumble, my eyes glossing over. "It didn't work, Bellamy." I repeat myself, almost not believing what I, myself, was saying.
Bellamy runs over and I point to the old manual dial. "God dammit." Bellamy mumbles. "Raven! I don't think the acid fog is down." He waits for a moment. "Raven? Dammit where are you?!"
"Is she not answering?" I ask frantically.
Bellamy shakes his head.
Loud banging comes from the main entrance of the acid fog room.
"Shit, they're here." I mumble, my eyes going wide as I look over at Bellamy.
Bellamy looks over at me, his eyes slightly glossed over before he grabs my arm and starts sprinting back over for the vent we climbed in here with.
The door busts wide open, causing Bellamy and I to stop in our tracks. We both dive behind a very highly flammable oxygen tank, pressing our backs against it and cocking our guns. Bellamy has two hand guns and I have a rifle. I would also have a hand gun but I gave that to Jasper back in the bunk room before they knew about me.
"Cease fire!" A voice booms throughout the room. "Don't hit the tanks!" The same voice says, obviously realizing the same thing Bellamy and I did, the tanks are highly flammable.
I look over at where we need to be at the moment, the tiny whole in the wall all the way across the room. The guards are slowly making their way towards us and I completely realize I have no other choice. I reach my hand over and grab the acetylene torch from Bellamy. At first he doesn't give it to me, looking at me with an expression mixed with 'are you insane?!' and 'we're going to die'.
"Trust me." I mouth, prying his hands from the torch and grabbing it. I prop it up against the oxygen tank and a piece of wood. I look over at Bellamy and give him a nod, both of us knowing that the second I push the button we need to take off running for the vent. I place my thumb over the cool metal and push it. The flames burst out of the end of the torch, coming in contact with the bottom of the oxygen tank.
Bellamy stands up, me following him, and it's like the rest of it goes in slow motion. Bellamy steps forward and out from behind the tank, his guns pointed out towards the guards. With a gun in each hand, he shoots every living thing in sight. I go next, following right behind him, running for my life for the vents as I shoot at the guards with my rifle. The rifle kicking back against my shoulder harder each time. The shells falling out and onto the floor. Almost the equal amount of bullets are being fired back at us as we both go running for our lives.
I look over and, to my relief, Bellamy dives into the vent. I go next after him, diving like my life depended upon it...which it did. I crawl as fast as possible, knowing that the second the guards put their guns down this vent, I'm dead. I also know that in about ten seconds that oxygen tank is going to explode and if Bellamy and I don't make it to the end of this vent...both of our faces are going to melt off...in Raven's words. The gunshots and footsteps of the guards increase as the square exit of the vents grows larger.
"Bellamy GO!" I scream as I feel the ground beneath us shake.
The oxygen tank explodes.
Something I had never in my life felt. The entire vent shook as I watch Bellamy crawl out of the vents and turns around, grabbing my arms and literally dragging me out of there. As my body falls onto Bellamy and out of the vent, the flames rush through the vents where I just laid. The red and orange hurting my eyes.
I take a very deep breath as the fire continues reaching the entrance to the vents but not reaching us. Bellamy chuckles lightly as he looks at me.
"We're pretty badass."
"Pretty? We are the badasses." I laugh lightly as the flames die down.
