Rogue Squad

Dungeon of Hope?

Just as I thought, the security hasn't changed one bit.

I slink around the walls and dodge every camera that I see. I know that once I get close, I have to take a secret passageway or else the security alarms will be triggered by my motion. I creep my way down the hall. As I reach the corridor that has the motion detectors, I turn to my right and see the air vent. Luckily we have large vents in the dungeons to keep fresh air circulating in and out.

I pull out my handy pocket tool device that also has a screw driver attached to it. I slowly unscrew the bottom two screws and put them in my pocket. See I can't remove all of them in case someone walks by this way, The ventilation screen needs to be kept in place. I crouch onto my hands and knees and wiggle my way under the screen. Once I get through, I start to crawl.

This is one of the only bad parts about the job. Dust lines the whole floor and my nice black shirt and jean shorts get covered in dust. I continue on my way and after following the path that I mapped out in my head, I reach the section that I need to be at. Unfortunately, this ventilation screen is also screwed in tightly. Luckily, I came prepared for everything.

I pull out my pocket knife again and slip out the mini screwdriver. I grab a small metal extension pole from my pocket that allows me access outside of the vent while I am inside. After attaching the screwdriver to the pole, I wiggle it through the holes in the vent and start to unscrew the bottom two screws again. This takes me a few extra minutes because it's more difficult trying to get out of a vent then trying to get in.

I complete the task with ease, placing my pole and pocket knife back into my pocket. I wiggle back out of the vent. I take my time scanning my surroundings. I smile. It looks like I am close. I creep toward the cell section where we normally hold prisoners. As I'm about to turn the corner, I quickly stop. My breathe hitches in my throat when arguing voices hit my ears.

"-heard them. They said that they just want to join the pack Serg. No harm can be done from adding two more to our pack. They will just help us build our army." Beta Emanuel says.

Holy crap! They are down here? I had no idea that the Beta and the Alpha would already be placing judgment on the rogues.

"Dad, you can't just let them into the pack." Shock spreads through my body as I realize Damien is also down here.

"Emanuel, Damien is right. We have no idea what these boys are capable of. We already have enough people in our pack, we are strong and can beat the strongest of packs at this point." Alpha Serg argues.

"That's true but would you rather be able to beat the strongest of packs or be able to beat all the packs at once? If we continue to grow in strength and numbers we can get closer to our goal."

This makes both Damien and Alpha Serg quiet. Damn, dad has a good point there. Honestly I just want to see what these rogues look like, and according to the conversation it sounds like they are going to be two males. Especially if they are talking about building an army. Most of the time, the men in the pack fight.

"Dad I personally don't think it is worth it. We have enough people. Once we gain more money we will have more then enough firepower to blow away all the packs on this planet. We don't need two measly kids."

Kids? Does that mean they are planning on sentencing two young boys to death instead of welcoming them into the pack? Are you kidding me? I knew we were heartless but this is just plain unnecessary.

"That's my boy, always thinking of the future." There is a slight pause then I hear, "We don't need these boys. We can dispose of them tonight."

Tonight?! That soon? What's the rush to kill two young boys? I can't sit around and let this happen.
