My feet carried me through the hallways as I picked up my pace into a nice jog. I knew that I couldn't just go barging into the scene without some sort of plan. I'd end up dead. I came to a stop at an intersection between hallways as I listened in for any conversations.

"Finn did you guys get in?" I asked while holding my finger to my ear. I'm pretty sure I could talk to Finn as well as Harry, but I could always be mistaken.

"Yeah, we're running the files now." Finn's voice responded through my ear and I let out a breath I didn't even know I was holding in. I clicked on my glasses once again as I switch to a satellite view rather than a layout of the building. The hallway before me was clear of anyone and I grew instantly curious as it was the hallway that I just took Tarnish down in. I peeked my head around the corner only to notice that the glasses were correct. My eyes drifted to the floor where an obvious blood stain could be seen. I instantly averted my eyes before clicking on the layout version on my glasses instead. I noticed the red dot, which has merged into one, was on the floor I was previously on. They were a few hallways away from where Niall's body was stored, which I was grateful for, but they were only one hallway away from the Control Room. I cursed heavily while picking my speed up and sprinting back the way I came. When I arrived at the door that led into the hallway of the fourth floor, I heard voices that made me halt my actions. I pressed my ear tightly against the metal door while I tried to listen in on the conversation.

"The trail stops here." A voice said, which I instantly recognized as Tarnish. That bastard was awake, yay. Note the obvious sarcasm. I gripped my fists by my side as I refused to charge in there like a mad woman. I need to figure something out before getting myself killed.

"Well she can't be far off then." Another voice said, which I recognized as my Uncle. I clenched my fists tighter by my side as I fought my urges to charge them. I looked around the stairwell before noticing an air duct. I clicked on my glasses and looked into the layout of the air duct's passage way. Luckily for me it fell right before the Control Room so that I could get there before they did. I positioned my foot in front of the gate that was screwed onto the duct before slamming it against the gate. The gate dented a bit, but didn't fully break, so I repositioned my foot and kicked at it once again. At about my fifth try the gate came loose and went flying into the air duct. I sighed while pushing my gun in the small passage way and following after it. I was entirely grateful for my petite body as it helped me to maneuver through the small passage way. My arms pulled me forward through the ducted before I came to the first vent on my journey. I looked down and could see the hallway perfectly. Tarnish and my uncle came into view along with their guards and I instantly took this opportunity to shoot a few down. I grabbed my tranquilizing gun from my belt and aimed it through the vent. My hands pressed the trigger and a dart went flying through the air before hitting my target straight in the neck. The guard fell onto the floor with a thud and it instantly raised alarm for the others.

"Where is she?" Tarnish growled while he turned in a full circle looking for my hideaway. I guess I'm pretty good at hiding after all, Tarnish. I shot down a few more guards, which made Tarnish grow even angrier. Placing the gun back in my belt loop, I continued on my journey down the duct. I could hear Tarnish fuming down below and it made me smile out of satisfaction.

"Payton, when you get through the vent you're going to be face to face with Tarnish." Mr. Jennings said through my ear just as I approached the vent I needed to go through. I nodded my head in understanding knowing he could see me. I peeked down through the vent only to see Tarnish and my uncle walking furiously down the hall. I spotted two guards behind them and instantly shot them down. Tarnish stopped in his tracks while I grabbed the butt of my gun and hovered it over the vent.
