Chapter 41: Dawn

There are traitors patrolling every hallway. We are stuck. We were able to get this far without having to split up but we need to find others that are trapped. There have got to be more Rebel soldiers that are not involved in this. There have to be. We’ve found a few, both alive and dead. These traitors seem to have no problem killing the people who were their friends and allies.

“We’re near the Rebel Tech labs,” I say. “We should hide out in there for a bit.”

“How do you know where the labs are?” Grace asks. “Soldiers aren’t supposed to go there.”

“Does it really matter right now?” I ask.

“Not really,” she says. “So, how do we get there?”

“When we leave this room, we need to go left and get down that hallway without being seen. There is a door marked CLASSIFIED at the end. That’s the records room,” I explain. “Go inside and wait for me.”

“Where are you going?” Grace asks, worried.

“Drew and I are going to make sure you all can get there,” I say as I look to Drew and he nods.

“Be careful,” Grace says.

I open the door and look around the corner. “It’s clear,” I say as Drew and I slip out to the right. “You’ll know when to go.”

We leg it to the generator room. The labs use most of the energy, so I know it’s near here. I’ve never actually seen it but I remember hearing the dull hum that I’m hearing now. It gets louder until we reach a door marked GENERATORS. Easy enough. I turn the knob but the door is locked.

“We need to get in there,” I say urgently.

“None of these doors are very strong. They’re old and falling apart,” Drew says as he looks up and down before suddenly throwing his body into the door.

I hear wood splinter, but the door stays shut. He repeats it three times before the door finally bursts open. We hurry inside.

The massive machine takes up most of the small room. “My God,” Drew says before turning to me. “You’re the one with the plan. What now?”

My head is spinning and I can’t seem to form the words.

“Dawn!” Drew has to yell to be heard. “What’s the plan?”

I snap back to reality.

“It’s a generator,” I yell above the noise. “And not a very advanced one. There has to be a gas tank here somewhere.”

I search the machine until I find the small tank. It is almost empty but it will do. I show Drew.

“Like I said, this thing is pretty old school,” I say.

“How do we ignite it?” he asks.

“We don’t have matches so there’s only one way,” I say.

When I stop speaking, he looks at me like I’m nuts.

“It’ll be okay,” I assure him. “There isn’t much gas in there anyway.”

The two of us back into the hall and are immediately spotted. Two traitors run towards us as I aim my gun at the gas tank and pull the trigger.

The explosion throws us into the wall and the generator room erupts into flames.
