The Man From U.N.C.L.E: Foul Play

Chapter 16

Shannon's Pov
"Well," Lucas said looking around at everyone who had entered the building, "looks like we're in a bit of a pickle."

"Surrender," Napoleon yelled at him.

"No," Lucas said, "I'll just have to fight my way out of here."

Lucas pulled out a plate with a button on it.
"One push of this button," Lucas said, "and this place goes kaboom. I'm getting a little claustrophobic in here...aren't you all?....GET OUT."

Everyone rushed out of the building to the lake behind it.
Everyone dashed into the woods not knowing how big the explosion will be or if there was going to be one. My heart pounded as I tried to find Gaby, Illya, or Napoleon. I looked around and saw people shooting each other. I was put in shock, I didn't know what to do so I just stood there. I looked up and saw the warehouse catching flame. The fire rapidly went to the top and then exploded sending debris flying everywhere and fire was sent through the woods. I was too much in shock to do anything and I watched the fire come towards me. Right before it hit me I felt someone pull me into the lake. I plunged into the water and it was deeper and colder than I had expected. Then I was pulled out of the water and throw onto the ground. I coughed and shivered. I looked behind me and saw Napoleon crawling out of the water. I lied down on my back and lied down beside me.
"Tonight has been an interesting night," he said.
I just laughed.
He stood up and helped me up. I looked up at him and then hugged him.
"Thank you," I said.
"You don't have to thank me every time I save you," Napoleon replied.
"This time I do," I said, "because this time it's going to be the last time."
"Oh really?" He asked with a chuckle.
"Yes," I replied, "I'm going to start looking out for myself."
"And hopefully join us?" Napoleon asked.
I looked up at him.
"Really?" I asked.
"Yes," he replied.
I smiled.
"Lets go find Illya and Gaby," I said looking down so he wouldn't see I was blushing uncontrollably.
