Chereads / Deavon’s Agents / Chapter 7 - Chapter 7

Chapter 7 - Chapter 7

Around 10pm Akira and Ryan made it to district 8 they got off of the hover bike and took off their helmets. "I probably look horrible" Akira said fixing her hair "no you look beautiful" Ryan reassured her. She blushed and pulled her sniper off her back. She jumped behind a rock and had a clear view of the helicopter. "You can help me keep a look" she offered, Ryan got out his rifle and hid behind the rock with her. "Okay we are here. how are we going to do this?" Katshi asked. "Okay so Au and Ena go In in the north and I me and you on the south. Remember she looks like a human, had long blonde hair, blue eyes, and will use no slang and perfect grammar." Atsushi explained. Katshi put the helicopter on autopilot and everyone put in an ear pice. Au threw down a ladder and she and Ena started to climb down onto the edge of the wall that boarders the city. Katshi climb down the ladder followed by Atsushi. All four jumped down the wall. "This is where we split up" Atsushi said. Au and Ena nodded and went there own way. "You got eyes on the entrance?" Atsushi asked Akira through his ear pice. "Yep boss I got you" she responded. Atsushi walked forward staying close to the border wall. He peeked behind the corner of a small building, he saw a man who looked around 20 years old. "You think he can help?" Katshi asked. "He might but we can't trust him." Atsushi answered. "It's worth a shot" Katshi said before turning the corner, Atsushi tried to hold him back but wasn't strong enough. "Hey man do recall seeing this woman before anywhere?" Katshi asked showing a picture of the AI agent. "Sorry I haven't" the man said examining the picture. "Oh well where do people hang out around here?" Katshi asked. "Well the park is in the center of the city and the bar is down the street but it got burned down last week." The man said "oh well thanks for the help" Katshi said as the man walked away. Once the man was gone Atsushi turned the corner and stood next to Katshi. "We should check the park" Atsushi said, walking away, Katshi followed. They remained out of the light as they made their way to the park. It was night so no one was there. They looked on park benches, and behind trees but she wasn't there. "Umm boss we found her but you aren't going to like it." Au said in the ear pice. "Where are you?" Atsushi asked. "In the remains of the bar." Ena answered. Atsushi and Katshi ran the the location of the burnt down building. When they made it there they saw Au and Ena standing over a pile of burnt remains. With a closer look it was the AI agent and it was destroyed. "No" Atsushi said under his breath. "There has to be another way to get to Deavon, the portal is not destroyed" tears filled Atsushi's eyes as he fell to the ground and dug through the burnt metal. He gave in to the tears and started crying, He covered his eyes with his hands. Katshi sat on the ground next to him and put his arm around him. Atsushi turned and buried his face into Katshi's chest. Katshi stroked Atsushi's hair to calm him down. "What's happening?" Akira asked frantically through the ear piece. "Boss is being a baby" Ena answered. "The AI agent that had the portal to deavion Got destroyed" Au added glaring at Ena. "If it isn't destroyed to bad you can go into its memory bank and restore any information it learned, that could help to find a way to locate Deavon." Akira stated. This calmed Atsushi down a little. Ena picked up the head the face was melted off to it was just a hunk of technology. Ena looked at it with a look of disgust before walking away in the direction of the helicopter. "There! It's some of Deavon's agents" a police officer yelled. Au ran in the same direction as Ena. "Come on" Katshi said helping up Atsushi. He grabbed his hand and ran. The officer ran after them. "Stop!!" The officer yelled. "Run faster!!" Atsushi said as he pasted Ena. "Die faster" Ena said under his breath before running faster. They finally made it to the ladder and Atsushi climbed up first with Ena at his feet. Once everyone was on Katshi got in the pilot seat started to fly away. "He's on the ladder!" Au yelled. "Cut it off" Atsushi said. Ena grabbed a knife and started to cut the rope. "He is getting closer and the rope won't cut" Ena said. "Move weakling" Au said as she pushed Ena out of the way. She pulled out put her gun and pointed it at the officer. Her hair blew in the wind and she stood at the edge of the helicopter. "Goodbye officer" she said with a smile. She pulled the trigger and the police officer fell off the ladder. She put her gun away and Katshi took off. The team met up with Akira at the hideout. Atsushi Walked through the doors at the building and saw the man with Akira. "Who are you?" Atsushi asked the man. "I'm Ryan-" the man said but Atsushi cut him off. "Katshi take the head and lead the team to the lab in the basement" he said holding a glare on Ryan. Katshi walked away with the team leaving Akira, Ryan and Atsushi alone. Ryan shifted uncomfortably, Atsushi's glare was intimidating. "Why are you here?" Atsushi asked. "I helped Akira travel to district 8" Ryan responded. "How do I know we can trust you?" Atsushi asked intensifying his glare. "Well I'm a scavenger who has no form of identification and is loyal to no district." Ryan answered. Atsushi examined the man. "He is your responsibility" Atsushi said to Akira before walking off. "Yes sir" she responded following him. They made it to the lab where the rest of the team was standing around a table with the AI's parts laid out across it. The room was dark the only light hung above the table and only lit up about 10 feet of the room. A short man came out from around the corner, he was in a lab coat, rubber boots and large goggles. He waddled over to the chair in front of the table and climb up on it. He examined the parts. "Well?... can you get into her memory bank?" Atsushi asked eagerly. "Well it's unlikely but not impossible" Mike said with a raspy German accent. "It's head is very damaged" he added. Atsushi sighed and put his hands on the table and hung his head trying to hide his anger. Katshi rubbed his back in hopes it would calm him down. "I usually don't do projects this challenging without... you know..." mike trailed off. "Let me remind you mike... you work for me... IM NOT PAYING YOU!!!" Atsushi yelled. "Okay I do the job for free" mike said hopping off his chair. "But you kids leave me in pice to do my work" he said coming back with a bag of tools. Atsushi lead the team out of the lab. The team all went to their room except for Atsushi and Katshi. Atsushi sighed and hugged Katshi. Katshi was amazed, Atsushi is so tense and angry around other agents but is so vulnerable around Katshi.
