《Unstable World》7. Teamwork

Osir and Lucas looked at Aria at the same time and said:
“What’s the plan? Boss…” As they said it Aria walked past them and started running toward the door of the building. She broke the door with her kick and used one half as a weapon or rather shield. In front of her by the staircase stood one clone.
Meanwhile, Aria started running toward a clone and she wanted to attack him first but while she was running doors to her left were opened and from them jumped other clones and restrained her. Lucas wanted to run to her and help but Osir stopped him.
“Why are you stopping me? We have to help her!” Said Lucas.
Osir tapped him on the head and said:
“Don’t be dumb. If we rush there without a plan we all might get caught and lose.”
Lucas stepped back and looked at Osir waiting for his plan. Osir smiled and started talking about the plan he got. Meanwhile, Aria was placed beside the hostage on the second floor. She looked around to find something sharp but the room was empty. No furniture, no rocks, nothing she could change into her weapon.
Lucas and Emilie entered the building by the same door as Aria. Like the last time, there was one clone by the staircase. Lucas broke the door into two pieces and threw them as he used his ability. This whole Emilie had placed her hand on Lucas’s back. Clone dodged pieces of the door but he was surprised when Lucas started running toward him immediately after dodging.
Like last time Lucas started with a punch. Clone dodged it and expected a kick like last time but weaker. Lucas kicked his leg and made him fall. As he was falling Lucas punched him in the face and knocked him out.

“Check those two rooms, Emilie, I’ll check those on my side.” They checked rooms and they were empty.
“Well, that Osir has a good plan.”
A few minutes earlier
“Emilie, do you think that by using your power you can strengthen Lucas?” Asked Osir.
“I think I can.”
“So your part is simple at the beginning. Since you have a time limit to your power Emilie will give you a few bonus seconds to use it. After defeating the clone, Emilie you will need to heal Lucas again, even if that only will give him one second to use his power.”
Present time
Lucas and Emilie arrived on the second floor. There was a corridor with four doors. Two on each side. Lucas walked to the first door on his left but he didn’t open it. Then he moved to the second door on the left. He still didn’t open them. When he was in front of the door on the left he felt the heat. It was a signal from Osir that there is a hostage.
Lucas barged in and there were two clones and the hostages. One of them charged to Lucas and the other clone was standing by the hostages. Both of them were mainly dodging or blocking attacks. When Lucas saw that the clone would block he used his power and punched him so hard that the clone's left arm was broken.
When the clone jumped back to get closer to his “partner” he heard something above him. He looked up and saw that the ceiling was cracking. Rubbles fall down on the clone with a broken arm. When the dust disappeared and everything was visible in the room they saw Osir sitting on the rubbles massaging his head.
“Ouch. It took me longer than I expected… but I am rank D after all.” Said Osir and smiled at the clone.

The clone was getting ready to fight but Osir stood up and warned him.
“I don’t know if it is wise to fight four vs one especially when I gave so many weapons for Aria.” Said Osir as he pointed to the parts of the ceiling under him.
Clone and Aria were surprised. Clone raised his hands and surrendered.
“You pass.”
Lucas ran toward him and started asking a lot of questions:
“How did you get on the roof? And how did you know where they were!?”
“Uhmm… calm down Lucas. If you want to know… To get on the roof I have frozen my hands and legs to the wall and climbed it but it took me three minutes… Maybe that's why It took me longer to destroy the ceiling. And the second, I can feel the temperature difference that's how I knew where they were.”
When the clone was freeing Aria she asked him:
“Is it possible to change leaders?”
“There shouldn't be any problem since it wasn’t registered yet.”
“Then... can I pass my leadership to Osir?”
“Osir! Would you like to be a new leader?!” Shouted Clone.
“I don’t mind but isn’t Aria the leader?”
“Well… It looks like she changed her mind.”
Osir looked at Aria but she didn’t want to make any eye contact with him. She was ashamed of what she had done.

On the second jump, Claire's bad leg gave way and she felt herself tumbling forward. A cry of surprise escaped her and Claire was certain she was about to topple off the side of the train. Alek, however, moved quickly, catching her mid-fall and keeping her upright, and alive. Claire lifted her eyes to meet his which were wide with alarm. The expression was fleeting, lasting for only a moment before it was replaced by a frown. "You could have fallen," he said pointedly."I know," Claire breathed, finding her thoughts drifting to the strong arm wrapped around her waist. A flush rose to her cheeks and she was grateful for the biting wind that masked her reaction. "Thank you.""You need to be more careful," he continued, his eyes locked on hers, bright and haunting in the silver glow of the moon overhead."I will," Claire assured him, her heart skipping in her chest.
