Fearless

Chapter 42

Carter's POV

"Okay Nick, which way?" Dad asked, spinning the driving wheel so forcefully that I thought he was going to pull it off.

"Take a left, then a right onto the dirt road and follow it all the way until the end and it's there."

Dad returned with a sharp nod as he pressed his foot harshly on the pedal.

The car sped forward as Leanne's voice suddenly appeared in my ear.

"Boys? Can you hear me?" she said.

"Yeah, we can hear you." The five of us recited.

"Good. I can see you all on the trackers so we should be all good on directing you around the place. Hailey and Cyrus are just getting the cameras up and then we're good to go." she explained.

"Great, thanks Leanne." I said.

"No problem. Good luck guys." she said as she went silent and we all looked around at each other with nerves.

This was our first official mission and I was nervous. I knew that the others were too.

Lucas had been pretty quiet ever since he found out about Sky and I understood why. He clearly loves my sister.

We just needed to get her back before something happened to her.

We soon arrived at Peter Campbell's mansion and pulled over in the woods on the outskirts of the house. That way we wouldn't be seen.

Dad told us that we'd have to climb up the walls to get in from the back while he and the rest of the adults caused a distraction at the front.

India was given some wire cutters so that we could get rid of the barbed wire on the top of the walls. Then we could all climb up and Leanne could begin to lead us to Sky.

We quickly said our goodbyes to our parents as they left us and the plan was thrown into action.

"Okay, I'll go up first, cut the wire and check that the area's clear. When I give you the signal, that's when you all follow." India said, rolling up her sleeves and beginning to scale the wall without allowing us time to agree.

We watched from the bottom of the wall as she climbed up effortlessly and cut the barbed wire shortly before giving the hand signal that we'd agreed upon.

I went first, followed by Nick, Jamie, Lucas and then Ryan.

Soon enough we'd all made it across and were now awaiting instructions from our earpieces.

I looked before me to see a mansion of a house. It was bigger than anything I'd ever seen, including my own house.

It was clearly a mix between a house and a base for this guys fighters. It was completely modern and abstract, with acres and acres of land attached and my sister could've been anywhere inside this labyrinth.

Suddenly, I heard Leanne's voice.

"Okay boys. I can see you all on the trackers. Cyrus is leading India, but you'll all be going in the same direction. We've hacked their cameras so no-one will see you through the CCTV. You need to find a single door near the back of the building with a keypad on the right side. It'll be white with no handle. I'll give you the code when you get there and then you should just be able to push it open to get in."

We all followed India immediately around the wall and across the land to the house.

We stayed in a single-file line, always on guard, ready for someone to find us. We stayed pressed up against the cold wall of the house, my heart beating in my throat. It was the most intense feeling I'd ever experienced.
