Aurelia was so close to bashing her head against the wall and calling it a day. 

"Wick stop!" Raven exclaims.

"I'm not doing anything!" Wick yells back.

"Exactly!"

"Hey, I'm not the one that didn't make enough bombs." Wick says sassily, throwing his hands up into the air.

"Five turbines, five bombs. Maybe if you didn't drop the last one-"

"Ooh any engineer worth his salt knows to plan for failure. Two is one, one is none. It's called-" 

"Redundancy, yes I know." Raven looks up as a realisation hits her. "That's it! Redundancy!" She frantically starts pulling at the wires as both Aura and Wick stare at her confused.

"Wha- what? What is? What are you doing?" 

"They built more turbines than they needed. We blow the other four this won't take a load. Surge protectors will ramp it down to keep it running-"

"To keep it from blowing up!"

"Yeah!" Raven exclaims as she turns to face him. "We need to shut down this turbine, Wick." 

Wick stares at her incredulously. "Catastrophic failure? That's your plan?" 

"Okay when you say it like that it doesn't sound like such a good idea."

"Well if I were you guys, I'd do something fast." Aura warns, still watching the doors. "I don't know how long we have before our new friends come to play with us. And by "play with us" I mean kidnap us."

"Alright, I'll set the detonators." Wick says before running towards the next turbine.

Aurelia's heart beat really fast as she watched Raven and Wick work on the turbines. Everytime they have a plan, it unexpectedly fails and they end up narrowly escaping. Unfortunately for them, Aurelia has a feeling that this won't be one of those "narrowly escaping" moments. 

"Today Wick," Raven yells from across the room, as Wick looked up at her.

"I'm moving as fast as I-" A series of yells and bangs behind the door causes them to snap their heads towards it.
