Rogue

Chapter 15: (part 1)

"Welcome! To our brand new base." Andy shoved open the door of his little hidden island cabin with a wide smile.

"Turns out... Max owns this island too.... along with a whole string of them, and now that he's helping sponsor TRF..." Andy smiled widely as he lead the others into the large space.

"We can use this island as our home base... of course, we'll have to set it up as a base..."

The group wandered around the space, Janae, and Pink exiting out the back door to explore the island. Tessa, Icy, and Messi set down the few boxes they were carrying and explored the large cabin.

"Andy... what about your workroom?" Tris asked.

"Oh... I can still use it as a workroom.. and we can use it as a training room or armory as well."

Tris nodded, and the group immediately began working on their HQ.

*********

Tris frowned down at the quick sketch of HQ.

"Why do we need a fridge here?" She looked at Pink.

"So we can stock it with cake!"

"Woah Woah..." Tessa grabbed the page and scribbled something down. "If we get a fridge there had better be a freezer..."

"She's right! We can work over ice cream..."

Tris shook her head. "How about no fridge..."

"Aw ok." Pink smiled and left to help the others with setting up the armory, leaving only Tessa, Tris, and Janae in the HQ.

"Ok... so we got an armory downstairs. The main base up here... there's an underground prison here as well, the entrance is out on the island." Tris motioned towards the door.

"We have to fit in a cell over here for interrogations... anything else we should add?"

"Um... a training room?" Tess piped in.

"Yes... we can make a training area outside, the prison entrance isn't far. We can have the train gun area between HQ and the prison. Janae, you'll get to make your serums downstairs in workshop slash armory..." Janae nodded and a crashing sounded from downstairs followed by excessive sweating.

Andy shut down the security system blocking entry to the downstairs, and now the hidden staircase appeared whenever anyone touched the panel on the wall beside the entrance.

The girls ran down the steps to see what the sound was.

The room had all of Andy's work equipment and a new potion lab set up in one side of the room, while the other held shelves and cases of weapons, different gadgets, and holsters.

...Icy was pinned under a fallen shelf, guns scattering the floor around her.

"Told you the shelf wasn't sturdy enough," Messi said from above her.

Icy grabbed a nearby gun and chucked it at his head.

"Hey!" He caught the gun and aimed it at Icy.

"Nope." Andy snatched it away from Messi, "We don't kill. ESPECIALLY not our team members." Messi sighed and reached down to grab the shelf. He flipped it off icy and helped her up.

She lightly punched him in the shoulder. "Bitch.."

Messi smiled, "that's me!" He grabbed the shelf, and with the help of Icy, they got it fixed upon the wall among 5 others. Each shelf held different weapons and guns. In a crate beside the sword rack, there were teleporters.

"So did you guys figure out how you want the upstairs setup?" Tris nodded and told him a quick list of everything they'd need, and handed him the room sketch.
