Save Me (A different fanfic)

Chapter 4

"So what's the plan?" Roxy woke me up pretty early the next morning. Funny thing was, I didn't even remember going to sleep. Oh God, please don't tell me Brian May saw me snoring!

We were in Roxy's room, using the equipment, still trying to locate the base where the Bandits stored all the instruments.I stared at Roxy blankly as she asked the question.

"Plan? Don't expect me to know what the plan is! Nigel will have the answers, not me."

"Ok, sorry." Roxy sat beside me, hesitating for a moment.

"What?" I asked, feeling pretty confused.

"So I heard you talking to a certain Brian May last night." Oh God, she's going to yell at me for not telling her about my life now isn't she?

"Yeah.... So?" Roxy became excited and leaned over towards me.

"So, spill! Tell me all the gossip then! " I suddenly stood up and hit her arm. "Oy!"

"Roxy, will you focus? We have a band who's lost all their instruments, one of them so precious to one member and you're wanting to hear about his little life stories?"

There was silence for a while until there was knock on the door. Nigel came in the room in quite a hurry. "I've found the base."

"Really?" Roxy exclaimed. "Where is it?"

Nigel pulled out a map and we saw the highlighted area circled in red. "It's 35 miles away, more or less. It was a derelict building. And from what I've heard from locals, it's been busy with activity these past couple of weeks." I traced the route heading to the circle, trying to study the map closely.

"It's in the suburbs. Not that far away from the Clyde either." Then a light bulb turned on in my mind. "I think, they're planning to move really soon." I paced around the room trying to think of ideas.

"So Nigel, what's the plan?" We both stared at our dazed and confused friend.

"What is it with you and plans?" I demanded.

"Well I'm sorry if I'm not wanting to just burst in there, willy nilly without a strategy!" Roxy yelled back, and we were all starting to panic.

"She's right though Jen." Nigel put his hands on my shoulders. "It's too risky to go out there without some kind of idea what to do."

"What choice do we have though, Nigel? They're counting on us." I packed up all the equipment and headed out the door. Nigel and Roxy followed me into the Queen suite and gathered their bags ready to leave. Just as soon as we were about to head out the door, we heard a voice.

"Jennifer?" Brian was standing by the table, looking tired.

"Good morning, Brian." I said, trying not to laugh at his crazy bed hair.

"Where are you going?"

"We've found out where the Bandits are storing your instruments." Roxy answered.

"Brian? Are you up? Early bird!" Freddie came out of his room wearing his Flash t-shirt and blue jeans.

"Good news Fred. They know where our stuff is." Brian smiled at the lead singer.

"That's wonderful news darling! Anything we could do to help?" Freddie asked.

"We we're just going to head up there, to see what the surrounding is like and probably think of an idea on the way." Nigel said.

"So could we come along?" John put on his shoes and Roger went to find his leather jacket.

"I don't know guys. Gonna be quite dangerous." I said as Brian came towards me.
