The two guards come over and start to escort us back to our cell for the night. I grab Liam's hand and whisper in his ear.
"Liam, we have to try and escape now or.... or I don't know what will happen!"
"Ok, I saw these big cylinders on the way here. I think they're fire extinguishers of some kind. I don't know, but they look heavy. I say we both grab one and hit a guard when no one's in sight. You take the front I'll take the back." I nod, going over and over the plan in my head.
We turn the corner and I spy the cylinders on the wall. Right.... Three.... Two...... One...... Now! I lunge for the cylinder and swing it with all my force at the head of the guard. I turn around to see Liam being cornered by the second guard who was brandishing his gun. In one fell swoop I take the alien down from behind and look up at Liam who's staring.
"What?"
"Oh.... nothing. Should we take their guns?"
"Probably.... also any forms of communication and ID."
"God you should be in the army" Liam mutters under his breath. I just roll my eyes.
Once we've taken care of the guards we swiftly make our way down the corridor until we arrive at a door marked with a strange looking triangle symbol. It sort of flickers into an 'L' shape. That's weird.
"Shall we try in here?" Liam asks.
"I guess so, someone might be in there though...."
"I'll just have a peep then." I grab his arm before he can open the door.
"No. The last time you said that you got hurt and I got drugged. Either we don't go in, or we go in together!" He sees it's hopeless and opens the door a crack. We both peer round and amazingly the room is empty. I gasp as I see all the books before me. It's my dream come true library!
"Liam, look at all these books!"
"Uh huh...." eurgh! Why does no-one care about books anymore, they're amazing! I quickly flick through a few near me. To my surprise the text translates into broken English as I look at it. Cool! I scan over a few spines of books and read their titles. There's nothing interesting until I see a small brown book at the end: 'All you need to know about FTV's'.
"Liam! Come and see this!" He hurries over and sees the book and looks puzzled.
"What is it? How can you read that?!."
"Can't you? It just translates for you. It's about FTV's, it could help me."
"Ok then. If it's useful, take it."
"Where can we keep it though? Actually that's a point. Where's my backpack?!"
"Bother! I left them at the park. If we ever get off this ship we can get them."
"Well first priority, get off the ship. Well we need to get the keys for the prime minister. I think we should also find the explosives/ weaponry room if they one. Grab PM, have explosives ready and teleport out of here before they explode... What could go wrong?"
"A lot."
I'm walking around the library when I spot a map. I call Liam over and we try to find an armoury or something like that. All of a sudden he points his finger to a room,
"That's it! It's only two corridors away." With that said we cautiously make our way out of the library and tiptoe down the halls. We just arrive outside the armoury when we hear two voices coming along the corridor.
"Quick open the door!" I whisper hurriedly. Liam finally manages to open the door and we bolt inside. The two voices eventually fade and we're left in silence.
"Well we'd better have a look. I think we should be looking for TNT like things and maybe smoke bombs. Yeah that would be good." In the corner I see some small round shaped things in a pile. The label as I come nearer translates to: 'SMOKE DISPENSERS'. I've found it.
"Liam how many smoke bombs do we need?"
"It depends how many we can carry. Seeing as we have no bags-"
"But we do."
"No we don't-"
"Yes we DO." I pick up some of the aliens' bags that they must use for guns and the carrying of bombs. "Come on Liam, they're just like the satchels we have back home. Plus they're made to carry heavy loads. It's perfect!" He looks like he doesn't want to agree, but nods.
"Ok then. One each." He crams the explosives he found and the smoke bombs, I do the same and put the precious book in too. "Well I think we're ready...."
"Wait do you think we'll need handcuffs? I've just seen some."
"Yeah, pack a pair." I get the handcuffs and think who I'd dearly love to use these on. I pack them in the bag and go over to Liam. "Right so we should come up with a solid plan." I nod and we talk about it until we feel it's good enough. Right. Let's get off this spaceship!
