After we left Miguel to finish his business in the restroom, Denver and I began heading back to the main hall. As I was walking behind Denver I saw Monica looking our way. I gave her a slight nod to reassure her that everything was okay. Denver and I decided to sit on the stairs so we could talk about what happened back in the restrooms, but as we were talking, I turn to look at Monica and see that she's already looking at Denver and I sitting together. I hope she doesn't take us being together the wrong way.. I mean she is the one that sent me to talk to him in the first place.
"Seoul! Denver! Stockholm! Come upstairs, Palermo needs to talk to us." Tokyo said from the top of the stairs.
"We can't just leave the hostages here, I'll stay and watch over them while you guys have the meeting." I said not really wanting to see Palermo this early in the morning.
"Don't be stubborn Seoul, I'm gonna go the the rest of the guys downstairs, and two will stay here with them. The main team needs a meeting." She said as she was walking down the stairs passing me. When she said 'main team' I knew that the meeting was urgent. Why else would Palermo need the 'main team' all together at once? If it was something insignificant he could just tell us group by group. "Alright, see you upstairs.." I said as I got up from the stairs and began speed walking to the main room.
When I got to the Main room I saw Helsinki and Nairobi were already there with Palermo. They were just standing in silence that the room began to feel kind of awkward since the drama that went off yesterday, I kind of started to regret not waiting for the rest of the team so we could have came in together. I turn to look at the door praying for the team to get here, and I feel like God answered that prayer cause in an instant the door slammed open and in came Denver, Santiago, Tokyo, Monica, and Bogota. With a sigh of relief, I move to stand next to Santiago.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, they're coming in. And we all know what that means, don't we?" Palermo said as we all looked at each other with confusion and concern, "I'd love to give you more information, but sadly we don't have it. So there's only one thing to do.. To use violence as a dissuasive method." He finished saying as he turned around.
"What?" I said, shocked at what he had just said. He turned to look at me annoyed and said, "We see an armored unit and we'll riddle it with bullets" He turned back around and took off some sheets that were on top of boxes, revealing a shit ton of weapons. He looked at me as if he was proud to have all those weapons. "We'll push them back" He said as he made eye contact with me.
"Did that order come from the professor?" I said getting angry at him with his stupid idea.
"We lost contact with the Professor. And I don't know if it's a technical glitch or something serious. The fact is we're alone. So I'm in charge now."
I chuckled at the stupidity this man had, "We don't know where they'll enter or if they will have an armored unit. If they'll enter through the windows or the fucking sewer. Tell me. Where the fuck will you launch missiles?" I said getting closer to him. "Have we all gone crazy or what?!" I turn to look at the team, but they were all quiet. I look at Tokyo waiting for her to say something because I know that out of everyone, she's the one that would have the balls to speak up. When she didn't say anything I was shocked.
"Are you fucking kidding?! Those are our people out there! We came in here dropping money. Not bombs. This would NEVER be the Professors plan. He would try to buy time. And if not, then he would do something better than to just attack! He would have something to back him up!" I said as I looked at everyone, hoping that anyone would just agree with me.
"So now Miss Trigger Happy wants to buy more time. Thats interesting...Do you know what I think, Seoul?" Palermo said trying to push me to my limit.
"What do you think?" I said getting frustrated.
"That you know if we pull out the big guns, they're not going to give us Rio back. And you won't be able to feel like the fucking hero you want to be. Everything you're doing is out of selfishness. To help out your own DAMN ego. They're gonna BURN US WITH NAPALM! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?! WAKE UP FOR FUCKS SAKE! COME ON!" That was all it took for everyone to begin grabbing the weapons and prepare for Palermo's plan. I turn to look at Tokyo again to see what she would do, but she couldn't even look me in the eyes. This whole heist was to get Rio back, yet she's risking him just to save her own ass?! What the hell?! I turn to look at Santiago, expecting for him to at least have my back, but he just looks at me with a sorry look.
"Im so sorry" He said.
"No.."
"We knew that this would happen Seoul.." Denver said as he passed me.
"I agree with you honey, but right now we have to save our own asses.." Nairobi said coming up to me before grabbing one of the guns.
I turn to look at everyone getting ready and choosing their weapons. "There's no time! Hurry up!" Palermo screamed at everybody. "Stop fucking around." Bogota told me before he followed the rest of the team.
"Wait!" I said and everyone stopped in their tracks, "You all know I'm all about the risk, you know I love the adrenaline it gives me to see what would happen in life not knowing the outco-"
"That's the thing Seoul!" Denver interrupted me, "We are not like you! We want to live! We have to fight the enemy in order to live! We WANT to be able to know and control the outcome! This is our lives that are at stake-"
"And you don't think I know that?!" I said cutting off Denver just how he did to me, "I'm doing this for all of you! Do you think that going out there and just attacking without a plan won't get you killed?! Cause it will! What will happen to all of you when just ONE of you gets surrounded?! YOU! WILL! LOSE! Trust me! I KNOW what I'm telling you. In a game you always need a plan. YOU NEED to know the enemy! We have to ambush the enemy before they ambush US! Palermo doesn't give a shit if one of you dies! As long as he lives and wins he's happy! I am giving up the pure joy of going out there and fighting those motherfuckers in order to save all of you.. Santiago.. I thought that you would know better.. but I guess you never learned from last time." I said giving up on trying to convince them anymore. They all just stood there quietly.
"C'mon lets go!" Palermo said walking out of the room. Everybody else just stood there, hesitating whether to follow him or not.
"Palermo... Palermo do you copy? They're pumping in Narcotic gas."
As soon as we heard that we all froze. I look back at the intercom and rush to it. "Professor. It's Seoul." He began telling me his plan, and I couldn't help but smile to myself.
"I told you fuckers." I told everyone with a smirk on my face before I rushed out to get Palermo so he knows the plan.
Time to take over..
