Destiny ( A Story of Telekinesis )

Chapter Ten: The Attempt

*** Federal Special Unit Facility Elkhart, Indiana ***

Max's group arrived just outside of town near a wooded area. They've parked about a half mile away and have made it to a small hill just inside the wood line.

"Well, it's almost dark. Have you come up with a plan?" Logan asks nervously.

"I've always liked the direct approach," Max says.

"Yeah I know... And that usually gets us into trouble," Hailey adds.

He smiles and gently gives her a kiss, "Maybe, but it usually works."

"Max, we're not going up against a witch or spirits. These people are heavily armed government agents," Megan says.

"I know..." he says staring at the building. "What do you think Sarah?" He turns toward her to find she has her eyes closed. After a couple minutes she takes a deep breath and slowly opens them.

"What did you see?" asks Max.

"I saw six men working out on the North-West side of the building on the second floor. There's two guards at the main gate, two just inside the main doors, and I could see two agents inside on the first floor in the kitchen," she turns to Megan. "Aiden and Jessica have just entered a large training room in the basement."

"That doesn't sound too bad," Logan says.

"There's more... I also saw a small room with a large window above them. It has several people inside and one seems to be directing their activities."

""It sounds like a good time to act," Max looks at everyone. "Let's go say hello."  The girls exchange a glance as he leads the way.

As they get to the edge of the high grass Max holds his hand up and they crouch down.

"All of you stay here and wait for my signal.  Hailey," He holds out his hand, she takes it, and they walk out into the road.

"What do you think the signal will be?" Logan whispers.

"Probably two guards flying through the air," Megan says sarcastically.

Sarah turns away, pulls out her phone and makes a call. "Beth, are you at your computer?  Good.  I need you to do something for me."

Max and Hailey walk up to the gate holding hands swinging their arms playfully.  One of the guards notice and steps outside the shack.

"This is a restricted area.  What do you kids want?"

"Hey man.  I'm sorry to bother you but can we use your phone?  Our car broke down about a mile from here," Max says.

The guard steps closer to the gate, "What are you doing on this road in the first place?"

"Oh... just having a little fun," Max says as Hailey buries her head in his chest.

The guard lowers his weapon and shakes his head as the second one steps just outside of the shack. 

"John, open the gate."

The guard next to the door reaches inside and the gate begins to open.

"Come on. You can use the phone in there."

"Thanks man.  We really appreciate it."

As Max walks up to the door the guard holds his hand out.

"Haven't I seen you somewhere before?"

"Well, I do live here."

Suddenly his eyes get big and he draws his handgun. The other guard out of instinct raises his assault weapon and points it at Hailey.
