Resistance [ completed ✔️book one]

Chapter 42

Shawn's POV

Celena wrapped her arms around Harry when we were leaving and gave him a long kiss. She was in her cute pyjamas , rubbing her eyes, she  forced herself to wake up just to see us off.

i hateful the way he looked at her, all dewy eyed.

i physically had to force myself from not rolling my eyes, but i guess she could still sense my awkwardness.

"Come here" she motioned to me

i walked over and she pulled me into a hug "take care of each other" she mumbled

i breathed in her honey scent, i hated the effect she had on me.

"Don't worry" i replied, i wondered to myself what would happen if Harry was in trouble, would i save him? Would i want to?

i shook my head, i would. That's not the way I'm going to win her over, right?

The drive over was silent, Niall and Ryan were still half sleep. But my senses were on high alert, i can't believe I'm going back to the place i just escaped from.

When we finally arrived, everyone did a check to make sure we had all our supplies. i offered to keep a radio on me, we didn't all need one and if something went wrong, she should be the first one to know about it.

"At the house" i said in to the radio, i could practically feel Celena's nervousness on the other side.

The guys followed me as i led them towards the cellar entrance, i moved the heavy piece of wood away from the hatch, piles of dirt flying off of it.

"This passage is dark so keep your flashlights on and follow me, when we get there Harry and Arthur go out and protect the storage door. Niall, walk around the house, see what everyone is doing. Ryan and i will try to disarm the cannon, sound good?" i instructed

The all nodded

i lowered myself into the hatch, turning on my flashlight to light the way. It was a dirt tunnel, cobwebs lined the walls. The problem is, this passageway was built to be very small, which means the bag of guns will have to stay outside in the snow.

i got down into a crawling position and went down the passage, i could hear the other guys struggling with the tight squeeze, the passage was getting narrower and narrower.

"Shawn? How much further" Niall struggled to crawl through

"Man we just started" i replied

He let out a huge sigh

"Keep your breathing as even as you can, we can't turn back" i reminded him

We continued crawling, I'm trying my best to not get claustrophobic, i tried to think of Celena to calm down a bit. If i don't do this she'll be so disappointed.

Thankfully we reached the exit, i slowly pushed up the hatch, looking around the empty living room.

When the coast was clear i hopped out and helped the guys up, everyone gave each other a quick nod before going to their stations.

Ryan and i quickly ran into the storage closet. They weren't lying, this cannon was absolutely massive.

Ryan ran to the back of the cannon,quickly finding the control panel, i went up beside him and held the flashlight as he began tampering with the wires

"This is Genius" he mumbled, looking at the wires

"Quickly" i reminded him, There was only so much time until the Mad King woke up, he doesn't sleep too much so he could come downstairs at any time.
