71 Surveillance, Port, Details
He zoomed in closer as we saw a figure running away quickly from the gate.
“Now, it seems like whoever was trying to get in there didn’t succeed since they ran away quickly. Perhaps it was one of Rocke’s minions trying to search out the place.”
I didn’t think that there would be anyone trying to find out about the port at all since it wasn’t that big of a deal yet, but it seemed that it was probably someone else who tried to get in, probably knowing about the Cybertron as well and wanting to know if it was here or not.
“I’ll be honest here,” Mr. Drails said with a sigh. “This is going to be very chaotic. I predict about ten explosions at best, because look at all the explosives stored here.”
He moved over to a different picture, showing a picture with 16 pictures of different storage rooms containing various types of explosive materials. I had to admit that I was a little intimidated by the amount of explosives that was being stored here, not gonna lie.
I don’t wanna die in a great ball of fire, not at all.
“So what do we do now?” I asked him with a nervous expression on my face.
“Well,” he began as he paused for a moment to think of how he should say it, “We know how the place looks, and now we need to discuss how were gonna get in.”
“When is that happening?” Rin asked.
.....
“Now,” Mr. Drails said, as all of our eyes widened. “Well you got everything set up didn’t ya,” Malachi chuckled.
“It’s gonna be explained in probably ten steps at the least,” Mr. Drails said as he looked over his shoulder and grinned at us all. “Alright, here’s how we’re gonna do it.”
We all sat in our seats as we listened to him explain his plan out loud. “First, you guys will make your way out to St. Thomas.”
We nodded in response.
“Now once you guys reach the island and are there, you need to stay low and keep an eye on everyone around you. The TSA is everywhere. That leads to the next thing, you need to find out if there are any TSA agents near your location and make sure not to get caught by them. Then find the cargo port, which the name is: Cargo Gate 2, which is located on the north side of the island. That’s where the Cybertron should be located.”
“Good to know,” Matt said.
“You guys will have disguises that will be designed by our cybernetic department so that you’ll be able to blend in with the island’s people.”
I couldn’t help but smile a little as he called it their cybernetic department, knowing that it was made up by him. Never heard the term before? Well, I’m sure you know what that means by now anyway, right? Heheh.
“Third, once you enter the port, find any other TSA agents inside and try to get rid of them. The reason why I say this is because we need you guys to get through that gate in one piece. Then find the Cybertron, being that’s where Rocke is most likely to be found.”
All of us nodded at this. We all had our roles here and we knew exactly what we needed to do to get the job done. “Then comes the escape, the harder part, in which you all will need to get through those two towers on either end of the cargo gate and make your way out of the gate and make it to the ship.”
I nodded again as he continued.
Mr. Drails then showed us all another screen with a picture of two watchtowers located near the port. “Wouldn’t you just teleport us here?” Mari asked.
“It’s to make it seem you guys escaped on a ship, just so no one sees the whole portal teleporting you guys back here. Here’s the first step to making it to the ship, make it to the ship without getting caught by those watchtowers.”
We all nodded as we heard what he had just said.
I noticed that Mari was smiling a bit too.
“Second, make it to the ship without getting caught by anyone. There’s no time for mistakes.”
“Alright, good to know,” September said.
“Third, make it to the ship without getting caught by anyone. There’s no time for mistakes,” Mr. Drails said again with a smile.
We all looked at one another in confusion before September finally asked him about it. “Why are you repeat-”
“Fourth thing, make it to the ship,” he interrupted her before he started laughing to himself. “Yeah.”
We all chuckled at that as well, and Mr. Drails then changed the screen back to the one he had previously with the pictures of St. Thomas.
“Now the fifth rule!” he said. “Make-”
“Make it to the ship, we get it!!” Malachi hissed.
Mr. Drails cleared his throat. “Make sure to call me once you made it to the ship with Rocke and the Cybertron, so I can get you guys in here.”
“Oh my Lord,” Malachi whined, covering his face in irritation. Mr. Drails chuckled at this and continued speaking.
“Make it to the ship with Rocke and the Cybertron, so I can get you guys in here alright?” he repeated again for emphasis.
We all nodded in response.
Mr. Drails then pulled out a small map of St. Thomas that he had pulled from his pocket and began pointing out different areas to us on it before he closed it. “Now, continue on with yourselves, tomorrow is a big day for you guys,” he said with a smile on his face as he stood up from his chair and stretched his arms up before he sat back down in his seat and grabbed a pen from his desk before he began to scribble down.
He froze and looked at us, as if his eyes told us to move out of his office while we still had a chance. We quickly got up from our seats and walked out of his office, with me being the last one out of the room as I heard him close his door behind me as I left.
“Well this is gonna be hard,” Mari said with a sigh as she yawned.
I nodded in response.
We all began to make our way down the hallways of the building, until we finally made it back into the conference room where we were previously at, since it was probably best to discuss this. The smell of hand sanitizer whiffed into my face once I opened the door, but I didn’t mind it too much.
We all began to sit down and gathered around the table where there was a lot of information that Mr. Drails gave us in a quick hurry.
“Okay, so we know that Rocke wants to get to the port, but I have no idea how they plan on getting out of the island. Also, I don’t know if anyone’s been to this island before,” September said.
“That is a very interesting fact,” Matt said thoughtfully.
“We need to be prepared, even though there is only one person of interest on St. Thomas, and that’s Rocke himself,” Mari said, which Matt added, “Don’t forget that robot Cybertron thing either.”
“Yeah, I was almost forgetting that.”
“Alright, so maybe we should focus on finding the getaway that the Rocke’s team may be doing, seeing as we all know that the port isn’t large enough to carry a whole ship back here,” Malachi said.
“Yeah, it’s better to find something then getting nothing,” I said. “Maybe its a jetski or something of the sort.”
“Or a yacht,” Mari muttered.
We all laughed a bit at this for a little bit. Although that would be quite exhilarating to ride back home on a boat like that, it would definitely cause some friction as well in the process.
Matt spoke up next. “Maybe there is a boat that is big enough to be there, and it would be a good place to hide a robot that looks like that.”
We all agreed with this. “So, are you guys ready?” I asked.
“Ready as we’ll ever be!” Malachi said, “I’m ready for these types of things, and to see them get executed flawlessly, just because you know we will have done our very best work in every aspect of it.”
“That’s quite the confidence,” Rin said silently, not wanting to offend anyone in the process.
“I’m ready for it,” Matt said. “It’s quite simple on our part, so we should be fine, seeing how we’ve done it in the past.”
“Yeah!” September said enthusiastically. “We may actually find Tisiah soon for once!”
Everyone then chuckled at this.
I nodded my head. “Alright, we’re set to go out tomorrow after our own school times right, around noon, yes? That’s when we normally would leave school anyway.”
“The sooner the better,” Malachi said with a serious look on his face.
