Fake Feelings: Banana Bus Squad

Working Perfectly (49)

Smitty P.O.V (welcome to the family!)

As far as I knew everything was going according to plan. I had given Vanoss a map of the vents and he had gotten everyone, including Ohm to travel to the roof. As of right now I was waiting outside of maintenance, picking at my nails. Nobody came up here so it wasn't like I had to worry.

John has the boys ready for evacuation and told them all how to get to the front doors if they lost their way in the dark. Delirious and I spoke for a moment and he decided he would be done in time to get to the gates and clear a path for us to get a good strategy down before we go out. I can only hope he stays true to the plan.

~Flashback~

"He's going to hate that plan Smit." Delirious put a hand through his hair. "He won't leave his group they are like family."

"He sounds like a pushover." John gazed at his nails. Playing with the rings scattered on his fingers.

"Give him a break. He just got kidnapped and it's my fault. I didn't tell him my objective, in fact I was out of my mind when I thought I was going to be able to take him away from his team to save him." He rubbed his eyes. "I can't see him. He will hate me for the rest of my life if I told him why."

"It's your sister!" I groaned. "Why wouldn't he understand?"

"You wouldn't know." I smacked my face several times.

"Alright fine. So what's the new plan?" Delirious looked up at me.

"Come up with one on the spot. Vanoss is smart he can help you guys get to where you need to be. Relay any information I need back to me. My goal is to get my sister and get the hell out of here."

"And come back with us. Right?" He hesitated to answer.

"I might not make it out. She's in the most highly guarded place and I will do anything to get her out of there. Even if it means sacrificing myself."

"What about Vanoss? Didn't you guys..."

"That's my point. If I don't make it tell him I'm sorry and that I wish I could explain everything to him." I started to talk but he shushed me. "Introduce him to my sister. They would be friends in an instant." He smiled.

"It seems like you are planning for death rather than life." John added in. "Are you sure about this?"

"I couldn't be more sure. Good luck guys." He smiled and pulled down his mask. "You're going to need it."

~Flashback over~

The power flickered out. I heard an alarm go off and I burst into the maintenance room. In there stood Vanoss, Ohm, Mini, Moo, and FourZeroSeven. I couldn't see exactly who was who in the dark but they all looked rather relieved.

"Got the cuffs off?" I asked Vanoss. He nodded and told the group to follow me out.

"I have the keys." Ohm whispered.

"Okay we got to get down to the cells. Everyone is going to be grouping at the front doors. The guards are heading out through the tunnels on the outside. We are going to have a LOT of people to take out down out there, but our path should be clear now." I ran down the hallway with their footsteps following behind me. "Does anyone have any sort of ability that would make winning this easier?"

"Ohm has a shield, and Nogla has force fields that can be used for cover from above." We continued running while thinking about how to win when we got out there. I led them down a flight of stairs. "I can take out any snipers by instructing owls to attack them. Basically can heal anyone that is hurt and produce strong plants as a shield of some sort. FourZeroSeven is good at combat with knifes if you have any."

"The weapons room is on the way we can grab some guns." I stopped at the doorway and listened. No footsteps. We continued outward until we came upon the weapons door. I went inside and quick as a whip grabbed random guns, ammo, knifes, spears and throwing stars. I gave them all to the guys.

"I have no idea how to use a gun." Moo said as I gave him one. Mini stepped over.

"I'll teach him. I have a lot of experience." I nodded and gave them both two throwing stars. FourZeroSeven took some knifes and a spear. Everyone else took a gun.

"We need to keep moving!" I yelled running down to another stairwell. Overhead I heard loud gunfire and people screaming.

Delirious.

I looked over at Vanoss and he seemed to understand who it was. He gulped slightly.

"Everyone here needs to be aware of everything at all times!" I told them. "Even if you don't have abilities. We can't protect everyone! Prove to us that you can pull your own weight." Everyone ran down until we reached the first floor. "We're here. Everyone this is no time to say hi to anyone. We need ideas and we need them fast. Whoever you see at the door is a friendly." I turned to the group before opening the door. "Trust me." Everyone walked forward and merged with group 2 the lights were still off and I couldn't exactly see anything. "Everyone!" I called out. The room went quiet. "We brought guns and the keys to your cuffs. While you grab items and get the cuffs off please listen to the strategy.

"Ohm!" Vanoss called out. "You will be on overhead shield duty! Keep those bullets from up high away from the group!"

"Nogla!" I called out. "You will be protecting the sides of the shield. Put anyone under a force field if you think they are in danger of being shot."

"Cartoonz! Use your fire to limit their paths towards us! Stay at the end and burn the building as we all exit!" A person who sounded like John shouted. Good thing Delirious told us about everyone in the group.

"Everyone else here is responsible for themselves!" I called out. "You have to look after yourselves first! Anyone who wasn't given a specific job, just take out people left and right!" I sighed for a moment. "Our goal is to make it to the edge of the forest and out of here! There is about three football fields of land we need to cover. I wish good luck to everyone here." I was about to open the doors when a thought ran across my mind. "Oh and if you see a man in a hockey mask. Don't shoot."

Alright here we go!
