Episode 6 - Dangerous

The agents were sneaking in a wall, their objective was right there, but full of guards, they prepared for a fight but Paris had a different plan.

Paris: Guys, maybe we can do this without bloodshed.

Nana: I'm open to ideas.

Delph: As long as I enter, it doesn't really matter.

Lara: Well, if they agree, I'm in.

Paris: So, Delph, I'll need your virtual reality powers.

5 minutes later Paris came to the guards, wearing a pizza delivery uniform and with a huge package. The big and bulky guards that were using leather jackets, that mostly looked like bikers, looked at him, they were not surprised, but were disappointed.

Guard 1: What the fuck...

Guard 2: All right, who asked Pizza this time?

A skinny guard came from the back, his eyes were shining like a kid looking at ice cream. The first guard, that looked like their leader, gave a light slap on his coworker's thin nape.

Guard 1: Didn't we tell everyone to stop asking for food on duty?

Guard 3: Come on, it's like 2 in the morning, the boss doesn't care for what we do as long as we still protect this place. Besides, I asked for a big one since I knew my buddies were probably hungry.

Guard 2: Whoa! Free Pizza? I'm in!

Guard 3: Bacon mixed with cheese and chicken, right?

Paris looked back and Delph leaned forward a bit, without being spotted, and wiggled his fingers.

Paris: Yep! And since you were so kind to remember our humble company at this hour of the night, the chef put free extra bacon and cheese.

The other guards, hearing about this, gathered around, eating the fake pizza while Delph quickly sneaked in the garage.

Lara: You know, Nana.

Nana: Yes?

Lara: I feel kind of useless now...

Nana gently placed her hand on her companion's shoulder to console her.

Inside the garage, Delph found somewhere to hide and started to remember the moment they planned this step.

Delph: Luiz, I can enter the place and deactivate the car's anti-theft alarm with just one touch, but how will we take them from there?

Luiz looked at Lara.

Lara: Oh! That's where I come in!

Delph: How?

Lara: Well, I have a secret power that you don't know about it...

Paris: Oh, what kind of secret power?

Lara waved her hand and two little orbs of light appeared.

Lara: One can make things grow and the other can shrink.

Paris: So that's how you make your spears simply appear?

Lara: Yeah, I throw them in a very small size everywhere in the battlefield and then I just have to make the grow orbs touch them.

Paris: And this creates the feeling that they "appear" from nowhere!

Lara was smiling, she was a very shy girl, so this type of attention Paris was giving was making her blush. While both were there laughing, Delph was there, kind of sad, as he thought that his best friend always told him everything.
