"Phase one." Zach yelled.

"Move in!" Weilan crowded around the rest of her group.

Zach, Weilan, Lyla and Cleo moved in across the beach slowly and carefully.

Across the other side of the beach Ondina, Nixie, Evie and Emma climbed across the rocks up towards the water fall, the sun setting.
Evie quickly dialed Zach's number as they reached the top looking down, water spilling against the rocks below.

When Zach answered, Evie pressed the speaker button and they all listened.

"Alright. It's a half moon tonight. Good practicing time. We just need to get the message to Erik." Zach said through the phone.

"I still don't understand how he fits in there." Ondina sighed, rolling her eyes, whispering this to Nixie.

"Shhh!" Emma elbowed her in the ribs.

"Where are the others?" Evie asked.

"Talking with Lewis." Zach answered.

"Lemme see it. Hand it over, right now Lewis." Rikki Streached out her right arm.

"No." Lewis clutched his laptop close to his chest.

"Lewis...." Bella hissed, crossing her arms.

"No, this is my computer. MY computer." Lewis snapped at her.

"Lewis. Now. Hand it over." Rikki said.

Lewis looked to Rikki then to Bella. He sighed and handed it over.

"We need someone smart with computers. Quickly." Rikki asked Bella.

"I can help with that." Cam suddenly said, approaching them.

He pulled the computer out of her hands.

"What are you looking for?" Cam asked, opening it up.

"A signaled virus of some sort." Bella told him.

"Gotcha." Cam grinned, rapidly typing away.

After a few seconds he pumped his fist in the air.

"Got it. An activated iteam or micropiece was installed wirelessly." Cam explained.

"Can you send something back?" Lewis asked.

"I should be able to." Cam said.

"Alright. He's answered back." Cam said over the phone.

"Good. Let's get going." Weilan said.
