Sayla walked a little back, to not expose us. When out of sight, she walked towards the two guards in a weird walk. The guards looked at each other like 'do you see what I see?' and 'so I wasn't seeing things then...'
Once Sayla was a little close, she pretended to be knocked out and fell to the ground. The guards came closer to look what happened and as soon as they did so, Kira was already behind them, slashing them with swords in the back of their necks.
"Done." Kira said once they fell down.
Sayla stood up and Sloth and I came out of the bushes.
"Alright." I said. "Kira, hand me the boom powder and the spark powder please, I'll install it on their gate to get it blown out whole."
Then hand the rest to me afterwards, Builder." Sloth said after that.
"Sure, I'm not sure what you want to do but it'll be undoubtedly handy."
I put a bit of the boom powder on the middle of the gate and put a bit of the spark powder on a stick.
"Get back!" I shouted to the others. We ran back to the bushes and I threw the stick at the gate. The boom powder ignited as soon as it hit the spark powder and the gate was blown away. We couldn't see for the next ten seconds. I gave the boom powder to Sloth and he sneaked to the blasted gate, shoving the lead with powder inside while no one could yet see. He hid back behind the corner and as soon as we could see again, we saw an force of ten men standing armed in the blasted gate. Sloth jumped in front of them and the soldiers readied their weapons.
"Sloth!" Kira shouted to him. "What are you doing?! Are you suicidal?!"
Sloth didn't answer on that but he just grinned towards us. When he looked away, one of the soldiers ran towards him with a spear and he struck the spear in Sloths shoulder. Sloth fell on the ground but with his hand that was holding spark powder in the pile of boom powder.
"Sloth!!" Kira screamed.
Sloth flew a few meters back from the explosion that he caused but he got all soldiers guarding the gate.
Kira stood up. She had the most angry face on her face that I've ever seen from her. She walked towards the building... slowly... she got inside. There were more guards standing there  and in the flinch of a second, all guards were stabbed and slashed.
"This is for Sloth!!" She screamed inside the building. I'm sure everyone inside must have heard that. We followed Kira inside, and searched the hall the gate had exposed after being blown away and got Shiro back. As soon as we freed Shiro, he ran to the defeated guards and began to slash them and after a while, eat them. As soon as he was done, he ran to Sloth, who was still laying outside and we didn't know for sure of id he was dead or not. There were doors in the hall, exactly three of them.
"I'll search this one." I said. "Sayla, search that one and Kira, search that one... please?"
We started searching and as soon as I opened the door, I felt like I was in heaven. Blueprints of structures everywhere! I definitely opened the right door. I don't know what Sayla found, but Kira came back even angrier that how she went in, holding a note with a drawing...
