THREE STARS BURNING

Unit 13

"I'm gonna have to fuck him."

The room went silent at the others turned to look at Rye. Tylers eyebrow raised slightly before the addressed him.

"I think what you meant to say was 'I'm gonna have to let him fuck me'," He replied before looking back down at the blueprints he held in his hands, frowning in frustration because they barely made any sense to him. 

"Mhm, yeah I doubt he's gonna let you top him," Delilah chirped.

"Plus we'll have to let him feel like he's in a position of power anyways," Penelope adjusted her glasses and walked over to where Tyler was standing to snatch the prints away from him, "Staring at them isn't gonna help you understand," she hummed to herself thoughtfully, "how did you go through a year of blueprint analytics and not know when you're holding them upside down?"

"Pretend I said something witty in response to that," he said as he brought out an apple from his pocket and walked towards his slightly small, very grumpy counterpart.

Micha raised his hand to stop the other boy from speaking without even looking up from his computer, "If whatever you're holding is one of those weird fruits then I have no interest in conversing with you."

"Conversi- what are you 60? Anyways don't worry it's only an app-"

"I'm sorry are we just ignoring the fact that we're allowing a creepy old man to have sex with Rye!" Konnors voice silenced the rest of the group as they all turned to look at him fuming in the corner of the room.

Before anyone could react Rye but in, his voice calm and clear as usual, "Well it seems like the best option doesn't it," he looked straight at Konnor, "As we've seen from the files he's clearly not into girls which means Dee and Lopy are out, you and Tyler are far to big to appeal to his... tastes and Micha is the only person that has the advanced computer knowledge to hack through the security system. Leaving me."

Konnor looked unsure. 

"But it's not entirely necessary is it?"

"We've looked into all the possibilities Kon, the only way for any of us get close to the guy is to well get close to him. Rye just happens to be the only one who fits the description." This time it was Penelope who tried to reason with him.

Konnors resolve was weakening.

"Plus we don't have to let it get that far anyways, as soon as Rye feels that we've got as much info as possible just a quick bash to the head and the old guy will be gone." Delilah spoke eagerly, she wouldn't miss any opportunity in which she could state her opinion.

The boy still had his doubts but after looking at Rye once more for confirmation he huffed in defeat.

.+*+.

"I'm hungry... Tyler!" Micha sat up from his bed restlessly around mid afternoon later that day.

"You realise that we're attending a ball that's gonna be packed with food in the next two hours," Tylers response came with a hint of tiredness as he too sat up from his position in the bed next to the other boy.

Micha responded with a glare.

"Lets go eat then Mimi," the nickname was greeted with a flick on the head before Michael got up and stretched out his body.

"Don't call me Mimi."

"Ok, Mimi"

"I swear to you Tyler..."

"Food!" with that he gained some newly formed energy, sprang out of bed and flew out of the door.

"Sorry Rye, you know how he is."

How you both are. Ryes response rang out silently in his head.

"You have 15 minutes. Don't be late." 

"Michaaaaaaaaaaa!"

"I'm coming! See ya in fifteen Rye," and with that he slipped out of the room and into the corridor.

.+*+.

By the time the clock stroke eight each member of the team stood waiting to be deployed.

"Looking snazzy, sweetcheeks." Tyler lent over and whispered into Micheals ear.

"I could say the same to you, darling," was his reply.

In fact the same could be said to all of them. The boys dressed in fitting black suits and the girls in long flowing dresses  - as to cover their weapons appropriately.

"Are you guys ready?" Konnor mumbled to the rest of the group his eyes set and ready.

"Of course man, we've been waiting for this for ages." Penelopes reply was greeted with a couple of mutters in agreement.

At that moment the door to the transportation shuttle wooshed open and the headmasters voice rang out through the speakers in the room.

"Of you go, Wheat and friends, hopefully all of you wont die." 

And on that note they all stepped forward, Rye taking the lead.

Let me just say this now. This is my least favorite unit. I feel like its too scattered and has no real substance, I'm even thinking of deleting it completely but for now here it is.

P.S sorry for the wait but I myself know that the next unit wont be arriving for a long while.
