The next day, Meowscles and Skye began to brainstorm a master plan to rescue Midas and secure our agency. Tina, Brutus, and Maya were in charge of inventory and making sure the plan would work.

I spent most of my time in Midas's room, looking through old pictures of him, his youthful face in photos looked so sweet and innocent. His ink-less neck and arms appearing occasionally in his yearly agent photos until he was 20. The tattoos appeared that year and continued to grow, and the older he got, the dimmer his golden eye was. It was shinier and more vibrant in his younger years.

"We will find you, Midas," I whispered to one of the pictures and put it away before I could have a meltdown. I left Midas's room and went to find Skye and Meowscles to listen to what plans they had so far. I made my way towards the conference area where the two were typing effortlessly on laptops and writing small things down on a pad of paper.

"Hey guys," I said as I sat in a chair in between them.

"Hey, y/n," Meowscles said without taking an eye off of his computer.

"How is everything?" I asked.

"Confusing and very complex, but we're getting there. We'll either go tonight or in the morning," Skye said, typing away. I signed and twiddled my thumbs as I listened to their keyboards clicking under their finger tips. The rest of the day consisted of presenting ideas to each other and planning them out thoughtfully, taking opinions from everyone.

Eventually, the night was coming to a halt and we had to make decisions fast.

"When does everyone want to go?" Tina asked seriously, "I'll rephrase that, when will you all be ready?"

"The sooner the better," I said confidently.

"I understand," Tina said and looked at the rest of the group, sitting quietly at the table.

"I can go whenever," Brutus said, "We need to save boss."

"We're a family, we can't leave him there longer," Meowscles said and Maya nodded with him.

"Tonight?" Skye stated more than a suggestion.

"Tonight." Tina said, her black lipstick mattifying her lips.

We all strapped ourselves up in our armory, I was given a pistol and an assault rifle to strap to my back, while Meowscles was given his signature Peow Peow rifle, Skye had her Scar, Tina with her boom bow, along with a golden tactical shotgun. Brutus decided not to use his mini gun just because it wouldn't be ethical, so he had a gold burst assault rifle, along with a golden tactical shotgun. Maya had a gold submachine gun and just a regular golden assault rifle strapped to her back. For good measure, Tina brought along a suppressed sniper, but made Meowscles carry it since he could handle extra weight with no problem.

Tina was armed with grenades and Skye had her grappler gun just in case if there was urgency to get somewhere.

Midas's barcode was broken for the most part, but the harder we looked and searched with his manual code, we had ways to find him. No matter what Shadow thought they could steal, we can always find it. The ghost agents also remembered where I had been kept when they took me in.

We left our agency, ready to fight. I walked next to Maya and Skye as Meowscles and Tina scoped out the whole area everywhere we went. Our move ends were as stealthy as possible, making sure not even a footprint was left behind us and also used the scope on the sniper to assure we were not surrounded our being watched.

The stars shone dimly under the cloud covered night sky. A slight wind floated in the air, causing leaves to dance against each other which caused noise. But perfect noise to cover any noise we were making.
