I ran down the stairs as tears were threatening to come out of the corner of my eyes.
Gary...
It was Gary!
My face felt itchy when the tears just started running nonstop. I laughed and skipped like a madman.

I cautiously pulled down my mask to wipe it off.
"Really...I thought I'd never see you again."

The building went off again in red light as I heard heavy footsteps of security guards.
They were running in every direction, including downstairs as well.

Their scurrying footsteps made my heart skip a beat. I ran until I reached the lowest floor.
My eyes wandered back and forth. There was only one camera here.
I pushed the button on FN and a needle shot up to the camera. A layer of ice wrapped around the lenses.

Oh, so it does work.

"Quick! Arrest anyone who looks suspicious!" I heard some say.

Crap. They got down here fast.

The security guards flew down the stairs and I smiled at them.
Their faces wrinkled in confusion when I held up by portable charger looking thing at them.

*beep*

All of them froze into ice cubes.

I turned to my left side.
Oh. There's an elevator right there.
I'm stupid, but never mind that.

The bomb's got to be in here right? There was probably over 100 doors on each side. Which one is it?

I took my sword out, slicing the first door knob and kicking the door down.
Nothing but newspapers.

Next one!

Nothing but sealed up cardboard boxes and racks.

I sighed. I only opened two but my hands are already sweaty.

"Reporting: Team A has searched floor 50 down to the last one. We have arrived and will begin the search now."
I heard a voice say.

Who's that?
I hid behind a stack of cardboard boxes.

"Two doors have been destroyed. Be cautious. This room has already been visited."
The female voice instructed.

Yeah. By me.
I rolled my eyes.

"Roger that, team leader A."
Pft. I've only been gone for a short while and they already developed teams.

I heard light footsteps walking in the room that I was in and some moving farther away.

"Ena, I don't think there's anything in here." A male voice started.

"SH!" She hushed, walking closer towards me.

So it's Ena huh? No wonder she came here so fast. This girl can teleport.

"Jason, pass me a spear."

Jason too? WHAT A FAST DUO.

With the spear, Ena started pushing cardboard boxes down one by one.
Why is this girl so thorough? Leave me alone woman.
Girls are crazy.

She knocked the first two cardboard of the stack I was hiding behind.
I was about to piss my pants. They can't know I'm here.
