Now that the white haired woman was down, atleast for the time being, they needed to move onto the second phase of the plan. Andy having knowledge of every turn and corner of the place, gave detailed directions to the other two teams.

Both Rhea and Blaze were given directions as to where to find the cell Leona was locked in. The blue eyed boy was in the lead, his body hiding hers behind him while walking down the halls and taking different turns every now and then. While Rhea wished she was in the front, seeing that she actually had a weapon unlike the blue eyed boy moving infront of her.

Whatever fear he had concerning weapons, she planned to know later, but for now she was on high alert. Her grip tight on her chosen weapon, her bow, accepting that for the time being all she could do was protect his back since he was stubborn enough to even grab a gun. And even though she knew he'd never hurt her, she still didn't feel like pushing his buttons by insisting more on him grabbing a weapon.

And so instead, she was the one to possess a gun in case things went south and she needed to hand him a gun. One he'll be having to get over his issues with and use in case things went wrong. And if she learned anything over the past weeks with Blaze and the others, it was that things always went wrong.

Coming to a halt in his steps, she barely catches herself before crashing into his back. Stepping to the side, she looks ahead as to why the blue eyed boy suddenly stopped. But instead she frowns when she finds a cell before them. Realisation soon dawns on her that this was probably the cell Andy gave them directions to. But what confused her was that it was empty, no sight of the brunette or any clue as to where she might be.

Fear slithered its way like a slow menacing snake, making their blood its path as it poisoned it with different emotions. For her, the fear meant not knowing what their next step should be. Him on the other hand, his fear only fueled his anger. And no one wanted to be on the receiving end of such anger.

"Blaze..."

Her soft voice fall on deaf ears as his eyes move around the place, sharp and in calculation of his next move. Either Andy lied to them, or while he was gone the brunette was moved elsewhere. These were the only two options the blue eyed boy would allow himself to think of. Because a third option would just send him over the rails with no one able to pull him back from over the edge.

"Lets keep looking"

Those were the only words he uttered before continuing down the hall and past the empty cell. The green eyed girl takes a last look at the cell, fighting back a shudder at how cold and lonely it looked before falling in step behind the angry boy that was barely keeping his emotions in check.

.

Walking around another corner, they both realise that the place is so much bigger than they first assumed. It felt like a maze, one that was created to suck people in and get them lost for however long it felt suitable. But just as his anger was starting to fade gradually into lost hope, does a door ahead at the very end of the hall open and out steps an all too familiar man.

The man turns around and quickly locks his green eyes with those blue orbs of the angry boy. A moment of hesitation passes quickly before the green eyed man starts reaching for his gun tucked away in the holster straped around his body. The blue eyed boy widens his eyes, but only a little, for that he needed to push back the fear that creeped down his spine and think of his next move quickly.

He had no weopon and that moment he wished if he would've listened to Rhea back at the lab. But the thing was, that even if he would've grabbed a weopon along, he still wouldn't have used it. It would just bring too many memories enough to consume his head and make him not think right. And then things would've gone completely wrong all too quickly, at least that was what he was convinced would happen.
