Ryiah nodded in understanding. "You don't get it, and I understand that. But we are safer than any NightWatch. Because no one knows we exist!" she said, her eyes bright. "And I don't use... "science" for my wings," she said with a laugh. "No, it's much different. I'm older than any NightWatch student here..." she said. "So, are you willing to join? No harm will befall you by the School. Their devices don't work on my kin..." she said.

Zachary almost shook his head, how could she promis such things? He didn't trust it, and he wanted to say no very badly." Am I allowed to think over it an other night?" He asked.
Aarold speeded up every minute, hoping he wouldn't pull it on to hard for Medika's hurted wing. "They stopped!" Medika said, it was hard to hear it through the speed they were going in. Up ahead a small building appeared, which seemed to be heavely guarded by all sorts of things. But there was no security in the air, no planes or anything. It became much easier to break in. It was about four stories, and one bassement where all the trucks were going into. The night blackened most of the sight over the facility, but that wouldn't be a problem for the NightWatch. "Do we have a good plan?" Aarold asked, turning to Medika in general.

Mekida frowned. "Give me a sec to see if I can pick up an overlay of the signal... God, I wish I had some of my equipment with me. It'd make things a lot faster..." Using her wings to keep her hovering in place, her laptop strapped around her neck, she moved her fingers over the keys. "Okay... Security. Looks like they're underground. This place is deeper than it appears. It's some sort of research facility..." she looked at Aarold with wide eyes. "And there's a morgue..."
Ryiah had to laugh. "Sure... think it over." and say one word to anyone, you will never see the light of day again, she added silently. But Zach understood that point perfectly without her having to say it. "Um... okay," Zach said, trying a smile. "Nice talk," she said with a grin, dangerous and warm at the same time. "We'll be seeing each other..." she said and walked away.

Sam hovered in the air next to her. "Research facility? For what? Are they trying to duplicate Aarold's idea, or just find a way to destroy us?" he wondered aloud. He glanced over at Aarold. "Morgue..." he echoed her, and his wings twitched. He wanted to get in there and rescue their friends now, and this realization struck him as funny. He chuckled darkly, obviously close to cracking. The stress and long night must've really worn on him, Mikael was the one who made rash desicions, and he, Sam, was the one who was supposed to be sensible! He took a steadying breath and glanced over at Mekida's laptop once more, to see if he could interpret anything from it.

Mekida scowled. "Hey!" she said, but she smiled. "Fine take a look, but it's all in code... They have some tight security!" she said. "Okay, so got a plan?"

Aarold shook his head, he wish he had one, but he wasn't much of a planning person. He made things, created them with his mind and in a lab, he wasn't a great leader at all. He missed Devon right now.

Mekida had been on of the first to take the pill. She'd helped with a little of the research. She knew him long enough to be able to tell what he was thinking. "Hey, what if we see if there's a way in? The're deep, so we'll have to find an elevator or something. Perhaps a shoot? Like a laundry shoot. I used to ride down those when I was little. It was my way of sneaking around. Got into the vents too. That might be an idea..." she said with a sad smile. "Don't worry. We'll find a way..."

Aarold smiled back." Then, we should be encircling this building." He said, unsure. But Medika nodded, while she worked on her laptop, from that he had no idea if she nodded at him. He spread his wings, he would only need a minute to encircle the whole building with the speed of his wings. Within a minute even he was back, hoping that Medika had found something.

"Damnit!" she cursed. "Okay, I only managed to get the cameras down. I can't do anything about the security. At least form here. But if they can't see up, that'll help major!" she said. "Find anything? Openings? Unsecured areas?" she asked, hopeful.
Ryiah carved her pen into the desk. She sighed, as she fingered her pendant, absently-mildly. It was of an Egyptian falcon. Actually the Sun God, Horus, to be exact. She usually kept it out of sight. Bird symbols or anything to do with wings and or flying brought suspicions. It was a dangerous thing to be wearing, but it'd been hers since birth. She never took it off. There was a knock. "Come in..." Ryiah said, as three of her closest friends came in. It was still late... well early, as it was close to dawn. "So what's with the Zach kid?" Steph asked. "He's... deciding. I'm not sure if that's what I should do. But it's better to have him where I can 'see him' than scampering around, setting off whispers. He'd seen enough to piece things together. Information makes you dangerous," Ryiah said. "The right secret, can be stronger than any steel," Jacen said with a nod. "But you know what to do if he denys us..." Ryiah said. "Yes," they all answered. "We have eyes on him..." Steph added. "Good."

"They're not really unsecured, but I think we'll manage to get in." Aarold said, wanting to show Medika and Sam the way." If Sam stays on watch, hardly anything can go wrong."
Finally Zachary came to his final decission, he would join. He would just join for the very best, the freedom. Allthough it wasn't the most smart chose he wanted nothing more than fit in. And joining something like the NightWatch was the best thing he could think off. Only he wasn't waiting for that day that they would also be discovered, just like the NightWatch was now. But he guessed he should take the best, it might get him close to joining the Rebels someday. He smiled as he lay down on his bed.

Mekida smiled. "Cool. Okay, lead the way..." she said.
Ryiah paced, trying to think. Her friends lounged around her room. No one could sleep, and besides school would start in two hours anyway. "Relax, Ry..." Steph said with a warm smile. Ryiah smiled back. "Don't you see that I'm relaxed?" she said, rolling her eyes. "Just planning..." Jacen sat up. "What?" "Hold yourself! I'll tell you. Just not now," Ryiah said. Jacen pouted, but his eyes laughed. "Well we better go. I don't want a Monitor finding me this late. Well early, out in the halls." "Yea, you go. Be careful."

(wait, my Zach, or other Zach?)
Aarold leaded Medika and Sam to the most highest point where they were still able to breath properly. Then he dove down, making themselves almost invisible for human eye to see, on the last moment, they used their wings as parachutes. They sneaked around the institute, it was heavily guarded, but not on every place as much as the other. At last they reached a small pasage door, only used for putting outside the garbage. And it was their best way in. Aarold showed Sam where he could best hide, and made his own wings disappear before they went in.

(sry, my mistake... wasn't paying attention. There's only one Zach (you) I'd meant to say Jacen ) Mekida scrunched her nose. The smell wasn't exactly pleasant. "Okay... some how we have to get to the bottom floors..." she said.

(wha, okay! ) Zachary walked down the stairs, he hoped the run into Ryiah, but what was there to say. He couldn't just say out in public that he was ready to join her little group. He had to wait until night fall, and that would be a long time. Aarold was about to say "stairs", but he guessed that that was kinda obvious. He tried not to say anything and keep quiet as they made their way through the kitchen." Does that laptop give you any maps of this building?" He asked." Because, it might come in handy." He smiled a bit.

Mekida frowned. "I'm trying to get a topographical overlay and a blueprint. Security is tight! I can only get a grainy image. I think there's some sort of plumbing or vents to the right..."
Ryiah made her way, raggedly into her next class. Sitting down, she looked around. So many students busted. The class was half empty. It was usually quiet, as students waited for the bell to ring. The air was tense. Kids were fearful and nervous. Everyone knew by now what'd happened...

Aarold looked more serious than ever as he followed Medika's instructions, he took the vents, on his right and allowed her in first. He could give her more chance of escape." Warn me if we're going down." He whispered.
Zachary saw children in his class, it was only one third, that made him think about how much power the NightWatch had before they were discovered. He followed his lesson without worries, that was the best attitude he could show the teachers, nervousness was only of good use if you wanted to get suspicion over you. He looked around to see who were part of the NightWatch, there were a lot more people then he ever thought. He was surprised to see Devon sitting in his normal place, he was one of the first persons that Zachary would ever suspect of being a NightWatch.

Ryiah dragged her way through her classes. Not one member of the NightWatch left... She exchanged glances with her gang. Everything was going to plan. Tonight with or without Zach they'd set the final "bomb".
"Stop!" Mekida hissed. Everyone paused. Listening, they could hear voices... "God, Samuel. There were so many of them!" a man exclaimed. "Surprising. But this should will be a lesson to everyone... All Rebels. It'll be a real loss to the Rebels. All over schools are being busted." "How are the tests going?" "Not too well. We already lost three..." "Really? That many? Be careful! We want them alive. At least until we can figure out how they managed to get wings! Maybe something genetic? The creator of whatever this is hasn't been discovered. We managed to torture a few... We got the initials..."
Mekida sucked in a breath. "Do you hear what they're doing!" she gasped.

Aarold nodded." We have to hurry." He said, but that was not what he wanted to say, he changed his mind the second later." I might... Maybe I can turn myself in?" Sam and Medika stopped crawling." I can try and mess the experiments up, make everyone just like me, stronger and faster." He continued." The two of you only have to open the cages and we can escape with less of a fight."
Zachary hoped he would walk into Ryiah, but his mind said no! He walked through the hallway and he met up with Devon, who was sitting against one of the walls and eating a part of his lunch. Zachary sat down next to him, trying to start a conversation with one of the simplest and dullest questions he had ever asked." What do we have next?" Devon looked up, surprised that the boy talked to him." We don't have class together." He said. Zachary nodded, that's why it was such a stupid question, he was ready to go on about it. But he failed, two girls called for Devon down the hall way, and he went away. He was the closest to what Zachary could see as the leader of the NightWatch. The perfect leader he was, only he didn't look like the smart guy to invent something to give you wings, who would be that mysterious leader? He could only guess about it.

Mekida gave Aarold an incredulous look. "What! You're nuts! They'll string you like a fish!" she said. "You don't understand what they're doing! You're the only one who knows how to make the pills... If they get you!..." she said. "What?!" she said, again, still shocked at what he was thinking.
Zach turned to see Ryiah coming out of a class down the hall, laughing with some other kids. She had her dark hair pulled back into a tight poney tail. The school uniform that she wore somehow looked... different on her. Like it wasn't really a uniform. When she looked up, she spotted Zach, her her expression changed. It wasn't the happy, easy smile, but it wasn't mean or condescending smile either. Zach couldn't put a name on it. Her friends followed her gaze. They walked up to Zach. "Hey," she said, pleasantly... smiling. "Hey... Um, can I speak with you?" Zach asked. Ryiah looked at her friends. They smiled, as if they had secrets between them. They probably did. "Shoot, I'm all ears..." she said, leaning against the wall.

Zachary felt a bit awkward, especially with all Ryiah's friend there. He sighed." I'm in." He whispered, not knowing how she would react, or what would happen next. He only knew that he had made his decision. He tried to make a good impression on Ryiah's friends, by not standing like a bag of potatoes.
Aarold had knew that Medika would give him such a reaction." It was... I don't know... Do we have other plans?" He asked, but there was no time to answer because the next second an alarm raged through the building, making the three hide against each other, while guards ran through the halls. "Outbreaks! On both sides!" "They've picked up something in the vents!" Aarold looked at Medika with scared eyes." Move." He whispered to her and Sam.
