At least it looks like the game's wrapped up. There could still be something that everyone is missing, or maybe BDN still has an unexpected twist or two left to reveal.
It didn't take long for them to get into gear. After promptly locating every camera and discreetly searching through the desks for useful items, they were well on their way to accomplishing their mission. Thunderstrike was a returner from the ceiling grate, and they were grateful to have him back, as he improved upon their already-solid strategies. However, one object always presented itself that had the potential to ruin them: the armed guard at the entrance grate.
The search for a weapon or device they could use to get past the guard was fervent but largely unfruitful. They had already checked all the desks, and there was nothing they could take apart from the room. Nothing they found was any match for a loaded firearm. They were about ready to give up when thunderstrike made a breakthrough. The lock on a conveniently placed storage room door was defective, and he managed to wrench it open off camera. He could make out a crate that was stacked on some wrapped bundles in the corner, but only when he got closer did he realize what it was...
He felt he had to contain his excitement. They could not cause a big scene. He knew the sight of all his friends going to some area offscreen would arouse suspicions, but there was no other way. This was their ticket out of here.
"It's that gas," he told them. "you know, Manti's stuff." Everyone's eyes lit up. "These crates include everything. The antidote, the canisters, the detonators. We're out of here." thunder started to open a crate. "How do you know they're not fake?" asked Makilaz.
"It's these funny little cuts on the side," he explained. "They're concave in all directions, see? I worked on this with him, and we had our own tool to make the cuts."
"Wow," Tokzic said. You wouldn't think they'd be dumb enough to store these right next to us. I mean, come on."
"Overconfidence," thunder responded. "They already rule with an iron fist, so what should they care? Let's go."
A few minutes later they had their plan all worked out. There was only one hitch. "There's not enough antidote for all of us," thunder stated. "Each of us needs an entire vial to stay completely mobile. We need all the physical acuity we have. Two will have to stay."
A moment of silence passed.
"I'll stay behind," declared emerald000.
"Me too," followed DrKirth.
"We promised we'd be there for each other at the beginning of the game," said emerald. "If we are the ones that make this operation successful, we'll live with missing out on the action."
"Whoever has the power, eliminate us tonight." said DrKirth
"Very well, then..."
Sure enough, they came for emerald000 and Kirth the next day. The company waited until all the black-cloaked agents had come into the room, then detonated the canisters and made their way into the ventilation shaft with a spare bottle.
The end was in sight. ---------------------------------
Night 3 is over. emerald000 is dead DrKirth is dead. thunderstrike has been resurrected.
It is now Day 3. Day 3 will end on Thursday, May 22, 5:00 PM.
