Remember <On Hold>

Escaping

Unknown's POV

Today was it. The day we let them go. It was the seventh day of preparation. (today was the day after TC figured out the notes). I was almost ready to release them, but I had other experiments to tend to. Three other girls, but in cells in different rooms. They're names are Naomi, Anisa, and Tsubaki. Naomi was the real smart-aleck of the group, she had flowing hazel hair, and chocolate brown eyes. I had given her cat claws, cat ears, fangs that only come out when she hisses, and bat wings. Anisa was the crazy, defensive one of the group, she had pixie cut black choppy hair, tan skin, purple eyes, but she was a bat hybrid, so she had wings and also bat ears. Despite being a bat, she had perfect eyesight. Tsubaki was mostly normal, except she was a demon hybrid. She had blonde wavy hair, hazel eyes, and she's the protective, shy one of the group. But she's usually asleep, to recharge her magic. And they're all FAILURES. I had a plan to throw them away after Fern and Adam leave.

A few hours later, 5 guys, carrying Nerf guns, and some with ski-masks, busted in through the roof.

"Put your hands in the air!" One of them yelled. I nodded to my guards, saying that we should play along. They nodded back. And so we just played along an put our hands up.

Mitch's POV

We were at the mansion, getting geared up. Quentin decided he wasn't fit to go on a mission, and was to stay home and monitor us from there. Using the special tracking devices he put on all of us, he would be able to see anyone else within ten feet of us. The guards would be purple dots, we would be green dots, and any one trapped would be yellow dots. We all had radio systems, too. And since none of us has a gun license, we're gonna carry Nerf guns with us.

"Ok fish, are you ready?" I asked.

"Well I was, but now that you called me a fish I'm not sure anymore." he said crossing his arms.

"Ok, mudkip, are you ready?" I asked again.

"Yes." he said. He had five little green dots on his screen. We nodded, then said goodbye as we walked out to the van. Getting in, Ian was driving and I was riding shotgun. Ty had a lock-pick kit he got for Christmas last year that we'll use to open the hatch in the roof. Then we'll use a rope and climb down and rescue Adam.

"This is gonna be awesome." I said.

"Mitch, calm down. We're getting Adam, then getting out. That's it."

"I know," I said. We reached the facility and used the small ladder on the side of the building to climb up. When we got to the top, we had to decide who would go down first. I decided I would. Jerome tied the rope to a nearby bar, and when Ty unlocked the hatch, I opened the hatch a little, peeking in. There was about six people down there, and it looks like one of them is doing something to... three girls? Well they looked like girls but two of then have bat wings. I turned back towards the boys. They were adjusting their guns and masks. I didn't have a mask, neither did Jerome. Bacca's don't need to cover their faces, he had told me.

"Is everyone ready?" I asked.

"Yeah, I think the order of us going down is, you, me, Jerome, then Jason. Ian's last." Said Ty.

"Ok, on three we'll open the hatch and jump in with the rope."

"One,"

"Two,"

"THREE!" I yelled as I jumped in with Ty at my heels. The guard that was near the three girls stuck needles in their necks and they dropped to the floor, limp.

"Put your hands in the air!" I yelled at the guards holding my gun with one hand and the rope with the other. They did as told, and one of them could only be a scientist, with that lab coat. I ushered them against a wall, and they stood there in a line. We all slid down the rope, and Ian guarded the guards while Ty, Jason, Jerome, and I got the keys and ran to the nearest cell.

"Jason! Ty! Mitch! Jerome! Over here!!" said a voice whose could only be Adam's. We ran towards the voice to see him pressed up against the bars of a cage, with a girl behind him. Except this girl had feathered wings and cat ears. She looked at us, expressionless. I unlocked the cage and Adam ran out, and have us hugs. Then the girl came out and Adam introduced her.

"Guys, this is Fern. Fern, this is Mitch, Jason, Ty, Jerome, and Ian's over there." Adam said. We shook Ferns hand, and then she broke the silence.

"Well, lets escape already!" With that, she grabbed Adam by the shoulders and spread her wings, which dragged on the ground when she walked. She flew up and out the hatch, and Quentin said she put him outside on the grass. Coming back inside, she looked over at the pile of girls on the floor a few yards away.

"Each of you grab one, then I'll unlock the door to get out." She said, grabbing the keys and flying over to the front door. I ran over to the pile, and picked up one with bat wings and cat ears. Jason picked up the one with just bat qualities, and Ty picked up the normal looking one. We all ran to the door, which Fern had opened, with Jerome and Ian trailing behind.

"Guys hurry, the guards are coming since no ones watching them." said Quentin through the walkie-talkie. We all ran to the van and hopped in, Adam and Fern climbing the trunk. As soon as everyone was in and the doors shut, we sped off with victory.
