"Now here's the thing. There are two main buildings; a private place not even an elite soldiers have access to and an old asylum. The underground to August is attached among one of these two places. If the information was correct, aside from two buildings there are other small barracks and tents which are heavily guarded as well.
First thing first, we have to enter the place without being caught through the surveillance cameras then split in half. Even that guy named Blue seem to have no clue about in which basement August has been confined & all he seem to know was it's only accessible from inside of the structure.
... uh, who's goin with whom ? We gotta plug in August's phone on their system as well", Matt explained. Everyone agreed in silence.
~whoosh~
~whoosh~
~whoosh~
~whoosh~
It was almost four in the morning & they quietly reached the tall semi- circular shaped concrete entrance, growing mosses with rusty metal gate. The place was surrounded by high massive stone walls with strong wiring fence at top. The entry or escape for a normal human would be rather impossible since soliders on watch 24/7 were at about every hundred meters apart.
The progress till then was all thanks to Ariel's mind reading ability from Blue's memory.
The whole area was rather like abandoned ruins surrounded by maze of tall dense forest that one could hardly see the star on the vast night sky. The place so quiet, even the air felt completely different as if every lifeforms around the area were being eradicated.
Before entering the premises, "They all smell like humans to me", said Noah looking at soldiers on duty at the each barracks on top of the wall, carrying guns.
"It's even harder if they spot us. We can't hurt 'em. I expected more like vampire soliders with stake guns", scoffed Travis.
"LET'S MOVE"
~whoosh~
Ariel jumped over the wall without being noticed, just like a ripple turned into waves in the surface of water, swift & smooth.
"I'll go with him. Let's meet in half an hour. Don't wait if we are late and contract Sophie after reaching the road. We will meet you there. And especially Travis, keep your eyes on Noah. Don't assist him on his wicked schemes", Matt & Travis nodded to each other parting to two different directions.
[After a while]
The first building Ariel & Matt encountered was rather like a prison, elongated dark two storey building with tiny barred windows. The only entrance for that very place was through the chain gate where access was controlled by two security guards & additional two soldiers on patrol.
The echos of people screaming in pain and agony including childrens & infants were escaping from every tiny cracks and windows of the building but not loud enough for human's ears to notice.
~~~
~crack~
The breaking sound of small dry fallen branches on the ground was loud enough to draw someone's attention in a starry quiet night. There were not a single tree for the branches to fall freely on the ground within the walls but maybe some of them swept along with the gust of the wind.
Two tall & slender figures appeared from within the darkness as if only their eyes were glowing just like the clear reflection of the moon in the still water of vast lake giving illusion of gazing at two.
"WHO'S THERE ? SHOW YOURSELF", shouted a guard taking out the torch from his pocket. He turned them on & pointed it towards where Ariel & Matt were at.
The sudden direct light made Matt winch in reaction while Ariel slowly started to march forward.
"STOP RIGHT THERE !!!".
The armed guards pointed their guns at them. Ariel didn't stop despite the warning and Matt followed behind raising both of his arms pretending to surrender. The bullets couldn't kill them but he knew it hurt like hell.
~march-march~
The other two soldiers in patrol joined after hearing the commotion making it four red laser beams of their guns marked at Matt & Ariel.
"Great!", Matt mumbled. He realized that Ariel didn't care about the side effects of not working with a plan. Either he was ignorant or he wasn't even a tiny bit scared of any outcomes. Maybe all he knew was August desperately needed his help and it was all that mattered.
~whoosh~
Matt moved to attack so he could hit on back of their necks to knock them out but then,
"GO TO SLĖĖP", said Ariel in some ancient language.
~thud~thud~thud~thud~
One by one they landed silently on the ground and Matt was gasping on his knees and palms on the floor trying to pull himself together not to fall asleep. He didn't know that speaking in some weird language could hypnotize someone so strongly. Little did he know that it was for humans & it affected him somehow.
