Hooded Teens

Chapter 27

ISABEL'S POV

We were about to battle John. He has security guards, and he owns a huge business. We rushed in, ready to attack. Naturally, Peyton was in the lead because she can run fast without getting exhausted easily. She doesn't even run that often. It's her freaking powers. We encountered our first security guard. I used my powers to make him unconscious. I used that power on John when he kidnapped Peyton and I, so he crashed the truck.

"Stop!" Peyton 'whisper yelled.'

"What?" We all asked. A few seconds later large spikes came from the walls.

"Holy crap," Austin whispered.

We continued on. There were a few more traps, but Peyton warned us before we got hurt.

"We can't do this," Boston warned.

"What?" I questioned. We've been practicing for a long time, but now he's doubting us.

"He's too strong–"

"There's no turning back," I interrupted. He just nodded his head.

We began to run up the stairs. Taking the elevator was just too risky. There was someone hanging from the ceiling, but we couldn't tell what they were doing. They noticed us, and it was too late. We all froze, even the stranger. They fell from the ceiling and got in a fighting stance.

"Who are you?" The stranger questioned.

"We were wondering the same," Brandon said.

We were about to fight him until Austin said something.

"Wait, stop!" He commanded.

We all glared at him.

"He saved me and Brandon from a gang! The gang was about to kill us, then he showed up and kicked his a**!" Austin told us.

"Wait, how do I not know this?" Peyton asked.

Austin ignored her and turned to him.

"But seriously, why are you here?"

"To try to take down this organization once and for all."

We all looked at each other.

"That's why we're here," Austin told him. "Maybe we could work together?"

He nodded.

"Wait, what's your name?" I asked.

"Ethan." We introduced ourselves to him.

"Here put these on. I only have a few, so some of you guys will have to lead the other," Ethan said, passing out glasses.

"Glasses? We're not blind," Brandon said.

"Click the button on the side. They're night vision, but disguised as normal glasses. I'm about to kill the lights, so put them on."

Peyton, Brandon, and Boston put the glasses on. Peyton was going to lead me, and hopefully nothing bad happens. Brandon was going to lead Austin. Ethan went back up to the ceiling and clipped a lot of wires. It was pitch black in the building.

PEYTON'S POV

I grabbed Isabel's hand and led her through the building. Eventually we got to the top, where John was. We tried to open the door, but it was locked, so we broke it down.

"I see that you've heard," John chuckled.

"That you were sending your assassins to kill innocent people?" I asked, with my fists clenched.

"Not only innocent people, but innocent, rich people." He said, rubbing his hands together.

"We've come to put an end to this," Ethan informed.
