theres nothing you can do | pt. 2

as lunch ended, we packed up. wondering if i could have more. i motioned to the candy on her desk. "go ahead." she said to me. i gave a weak smile and nodded a thank you. as we headed out, the both of us sighed a breath of relief.  

we headed into our office and sat back down. we continued to work on our cases, until i had a sudden lightbulb moment. i typed on the typewriter and pulled out the page. i jogged quickly to where gloria worked. i grabbed a tube and slid the sheet inside as i rolled it up. about to send the tube down, the handler creeped up behind me and took it from my grasp.

"whats this?" she asks, curiously. "eliminate the sandwich shops owner?" she says, continuing. "why him?" she ends. "well, if he dies, his shop will be passed down to his son." i explain. "his son, disgustingly, never washes his hands." i continued. "hes the one who serves the generals sandwich that day." i say. "he then gets food poisoning, thus making the aircraft late." i explain more, "and then, boom." i say, motioning my hands like an explosion. she nods, excitedly and claps her hands. gloria slid the tube down the shaft, behind me as i heard the nostalgic fwoosh. "good job, five!" the handler spoke suddenly and excitedly. she led me back to the office, and announced my case completion to everybody. everyone clapped and i gave a weak smile, trying to show some interest. 

i sat back down, and waited for everyone to quiet down. the handler then left. i got up, and grabbed charlenes hand from beside me and dragged her to the tube room. we jogged their, and charlene squeezed my hand tight. i tried to look ahead, my cheeks growing warm and fuzzy. we arrived, a few seconds after, in the tube room. i poked my head inside, trying to see of gloria remained there. i spotted her, and sneak up behind her, knocking her out, trying to have the least bit of trouble. i send a tube down, and try to act fast. 

supposedly i was too slow, because in that moment the handler jumped out infront, shooting. i ducked down and tried to cover charlene. we hide and jump around, before having a free moment. i pull off the trigger and throw the one of the grenades i snatched from in the handlers office. i hear a shriek, as i ducked down, trying to avoid the nasty blast. i pulled charlene with me as we headed to  briefcase room. i run in, ignoring the calls of the secretary. i snatched a briefcase and jogged out before throwing the last grenade in my pocket. i pull the black box open, trying to run away before the bomb blasted. i hear a faint boom, before were phased away.
