Present Time:
I walked away, Adria and Adrian walked away, Winter's here, Lisa and Hanna are here, so's Noremac. But where's Sue?
"Susan?" Crystal out mostly everybody, except Adria, who's too busy trying not to black out.
"Kid?" I scream.
Then I hear faintly:
"Pirate?"
I run in the direction of the voice. But this is how we got here:

Past Time:
We're surrounded, so lacking a thing called common sense, I shout
"Attack!"
So we do. I get 2 head shots, Sue blows apart the head of a robot with her shotgun, and Adria smacks a robot with her book shouting:
"This. Is. For. My. Time. I. Could. Have. Been. Reading!"
As she says "-ding" in reading, the mechanism falls apart, causing wires to be all over the place. But that doesn't stop a small projectile from hitting Adria's hand. So she falls to the ground.
"Oh my-" I try to say, but I'm interrupted by another gunshot from Sue.
"You wanna, I don't know? Quiet down!" I shout.
"Shut up. Start firing, that simple." She replies, so I do.
I pull down the hammer and BANG, I repeat more times, each followed with a BANG! So it sounds like this: BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! Click, click, click. That's when I look back to see a cloud of dust, debris, ammo, and missing people everywhere.
"Guys?" I shout.
I get a response from Winter and Noremac, Hanna and Lisa, Adrian and a faint one from Adria.
But where's Kid? I think, She has to be here somewhere.
So I go over to check on Adria, who's losing consciousness by the second.
"Just hold on..." I say.
"Can you walk?" I ask her.
"I... Think... So." She replies, like every word is killing her.

Present Time:
I go over to Kid, and she's covered in metal and wires.
"Hold on." I say as I pull the stuff of her and help her up.
"Thanks," she says "but what happened to Adria?"
"We, uh, don't know. I don't at least." I reply.
"Then come with me." Says Noremac.
And with that, he stomps his feet two hard times on the ground, and a secret staircase opens up.

A.N- Hey guys! This chapter was pretty interesting. What happened to Adria? Why does Noremac have a secret lair? Where does it lead? Read next time to find out. Also, comment your ideas/thoughts, and I'll consider adding them to the book! (The reason I say "consider" isn't because I'll be against your idea, it's just because so it fits with the plot at that current point) Also, comment who should get the next P.O.V from these 3:
• Noremac
• Sue
• Winter
