Lumia panics as she quickly dresses herself, covering her features as best as she could, though the sounds from the fighting in the apartment above her had stopped Teddy’s situation had not gotten any better.

The computer program who’s card was one again in the body of the small robot circles around her as she hurriedly gets dressed. “-What do you think you’re doing!? What if you get yourself hurt?-”

Lumia presses a button on the small robot powering it down, and takes the memory card that held the very talkative program on it and clutching it in her hands as she quickly made her way out of the door of her apartment racing over to the stairs and running down them as fast as she could, reaching the front door and looking out it just in time to see Teddy’s vehicle leave. “Oh no, oh no, oh no-”

She watches them leave as she paces on spot half in a panic, Mr. Conner was a nice guy and though he wasn’t aware of it he had given her a lot of information on this situation. Now he was in a lot of trouble, and there was no way that he could possibly get past all the military security without getting hurt.

She begins looking inside the windows of the cars parked on the street outside of her building, an annoyed look filling her face when each one proves useless to her. “No, no, no, no- Come on!! At least one of you has to have a docking station, at least for an mp3 player of all things! Stuff like that should be mandatory!!”

She smiles finally finds a car with the equipment in it that she needed, glancing around her to make sure no one was watching her before rolling up her sleeve to uncover the computer she had on arm. “Now let’s just hope that it has a remote control starter...” After a typing a few things up the car starts up, the light turning on as the engine hums, and the locks on the door open. “Great!!”

Lumia opens the door getting inside, then taking a cord and attaching the computer on her arm to the docking station, and then taking the memory card she held in her hand and placing it into the computer, the voice of the program beginning to question her. “-Where are we... what did you do...?-”

Lumia frowns, now was not the time. “This is no time for questions! They’re headed to the facility the oracle is in! Get me there as fast as you can!”

*******

Eve lets out a sigh of relief as he leans back in her chair, an accomplished look on her face. “Finally finished!”

The scientist she had been helping gives a sigh of relief. “And here I thought I would never get it figured out in time, thanks Eve, you’re a life saver. Let me make it up to you, I’ll take you to dinner some time.”

Eve seems pleased with the offer. “Oh really? If food is involved then helping you out was defiantly worth it!” She looks over to the clock on the wall, it close to midnight now. “I didn’t think that it would take this long, looks like I’m going to have to make Fitz fill in for me with that grade three class that’s supposed to come tomorrow morning, or else I’m not going to get enough sleep. I’m sure he’ll be thrilled.”

Her co-worker waves to her before she leaves. “I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Eve nods her head waving back to him. “Of course.” She starts heading towards her office as to gather her keys and then starts heading home, more than ready to call it a day and go to bed. “I can’t wait to fall down on my nice fluffy bed and just pass out.”

She comes to a stop when she sees a familiar figure walking into the hall she was right now in, a frown filling her face as she angrily calls out to him to get his attention. “Mr. Conner! What are you doing here!? And in the middle of the night of all times!”

Teddy quickly turns towards Eve, a horrified look filling his face as he begins waving his hands trying to ward her back. “Stay right there Professor Cadrey! I beg of you don’t come any closer than you already have!”

Eve frowns at the comment. “And what exactly is that supposed to mean? Is that some kind of weird passive threat from you?”

Teddy continues to try and get her to stay in her place. “Trust me on this one, it’s in your best interest not to be concerned with me, just pretend you didn’t see me! Or… something…”

Eve places her hands on her hips as she continues to approach him. “I don’t think so! You’re here to influence my subject again aren’t you! I knew that dream wasn’t conjured on his own! You did the exact same thing before didn’t you? You snuck in during someone else’s shift and started telling my subject what he should be telling us!”

Teddy shakes his head. “No! It wasn’t like that, I-”

Eve comes to a stop in front of him lifting her hand and holding a finger to him threateningly. “Don’t think that I’m going to keep quiet about this! I’m going to have you fired so fast you’ll-” She stops talking when she sees another figure standing in the hall, a white female wolf that was right now holding a gun towards Teddy, Eve taking several quick steps back. “What’s going on?”

Iuana points the weapon towards Eve, Eve quickly raising her hands into the air, Teddy looking back to Iuana to try and reason with her. “There’s no reason to bring her into this!”

Iuana grabs onto Eve pulling her towards her and holding her arm around her neck while still pointing the gun at her. “Just keep moving and she’ll be just fine.”

Teddy stares at her for a moment before continuing forward, leading Iuana to where Yula was being kept. “You do know that Yula has a guard right? He’s not going to react positively to seeing something like this.”

Iuana narrows her eyes. “You’ll take him down before he can do anything about it. Unless you want me to do it, though I can’t say that I’ll be as merciful as you might be when dealing with him.”

Teddy frowns at her words. “Right…”

The three arrive at the room that Yula is being kept in, both Eve and Teddy surprised to find that there is no guard there. “Where’s the guard? There’s supposed to be one here, he has the key card to the room, we won’t be able to get Yula out without it.”

Yula’s voice answers Teddy’s question from inside of his room. “He went to regroup with the other security guards.” The three all turn towards Yula’s room, able to see Yula’s face through the window on the door, Yula continues to explain. “They saw you enter the building on the monitors and called him and the other security guards to regroup so that they could deal with you. I guess they’re afraid of dealing with the white wolf all on their own.”

Teddy looks back to Iuana, this obviously was not going to turn out well. “Looks like things are really bad for you right now, Yula’s guard will arrive with back up at any moment and when they get here and see the situation they will kill you, do you understand?”

Iuana keeps her ground. “Find a way to get him out! There has to be another key!”

Eve quickly speaks up, not wanting to end up as a casualty in this mess. “You can take mine!” She reaches into her pocket pulling a card forward. “I’m one of the scientists in charge of the subject, mine will open the door.”

Teddy quickly takes the key card from her, running over to the door to open it, though he initially didn’t want to cooperate with Iuana, things would be bad for all of them once the military got here, depending on how high of a priority it was to get Iuana and Yula back both he and Eve could be seen as expendable.

Teddy uses the card on the door to Yula’s room confines, several electronic beeps sound as the card opens the lock on the room, Yula walks through the now open door and grabbing onto Teddy’s arm, his former the security guard the one he knew the best and felt the most comfortable with of the group.

Iuana motions for them to begin moving. “We’re leaving this place. Hurry up.”

Voices raise as the hall leading to the room begins to fill with security guards and military soldiers, one of the soldiers firing at Iuana despite the hostage she right now held, Eve screaming at the top of her lungs as Iuana changes her hold on her, taking her arm from around her neck and grabbing onto Eve’s wrist, pulling her along with her as she leaps forward, rushing into a group that filled the hall to their left, attacking them and bringing them to the ground, creating a temporary clearing for the group to go through, she looked back to Teddy and Yula, raising her weapon to Eve once again to remind them that she was still on top of the situation. Though Eve’s life was minuscule to the new threat that had shown up Teddy still thought her important enough to keep alive. “Let’s go!”

Yula quickly runs after her, Teddy doing the same and chasing after the group.

*******

Lumia is outside of the building, watching as the group tries to make their way through the halls, her computer now hooked up to the cameras around the facility. She sighs to herself, security waiting for them in practically every direction. “What is that woman thinking!? They’re never going to get out of there!”

“-They’re going to need help no doubt about that, what do you intend to do?-”

Lumia begins typing away on her computer. “First I’m taking out the cameras, that way the military will only be able to locate them if they actually see them, then while they’re forced to rely on word of mouth on the intruders location I’m going to try and move security away from their position with some false information, while I’m doing that I want you to get rid of the power for the city. They’ll have a hard time following them in the dark, and it will give them a much better chance of escaping.”

“-The entire city? Do you know how much work that will take? And besides this building is bound to have a backup generator of its own-”

Lumia nods her head. “Yeah, I know that, that’s why I said the city. Not every building is going to have a backup generator! It’ll give them plenty of places to hide!” She smiles to herself, this ordeal although very dangerous for her was also exciting, something was finally happening! No longer was she sitting at home contemplating on how she could possibly effect the situation, she was actually out in the thick of things doing things that really mattered and was changing the situation from the danger it had once been.

*******

Teddy looks around him, the last few minutes having gotten pretty quiet for them, the guards that had been so diligently trying to stop them all nowhere to be found. “This isn’t right...”

He looks up to a camera on the wall, with that security should know exactly where they were, and should be right on them at all times, but that wasn’t the case.

Yula seems pretty nervous with the whole situation. “I’m not allowed to be in this part of the building you know... I’m only allowed in several very specific places that-”

Teddy looks back to Yula. “Don’t worry about it right now! Things are obviously happening outside of the normal schedule, so just try not to think about little details like that.”

The lights suddenly go out, surrounding the group is darkness, Yula’s voice becoming slightly more panicked than before. “Teddy... what’s going on now...?”

There is a flicker as the emergency lights come on, the halls now lit just enough to guide people through them, Iuana quickly beginning to move forward, sure to keep Eve with her. “Come on, this is our chance!”
