"Can we talk together about this for a minute?" Reynald asked.

22 shook his head, "No. There's no time to foolishly waste time."

"Please."

He sighed, rolling his eyes, "Fine, fine. Waste your pathetic time them, all of you."

"Thank you."

"Whatever."

The three teenagers, and pre-teen got in a group far enough away from 22. Then Reyald turned to ask 22-20 something. "What's your name by the way?"

"My name is 22-20."

"22-20? What kind of name is that?"

"A name. What else to you think it is, human?"

With a sarcastic tone he replied, "Oh, I thought it was a random number you were giving me."

"Well you were wrong then."

Reyald sighed, shaking his head, "I- Nevermind. Just forget about it."

"Why?"

"Just never mind. Ok?"

"Whatever. Just- You are wasting time. I am timing you now. You have 5 mintues now. Maybe 10 if you're lucky. Or less."

"Alright, Alright." Waved him off as the group formed a circle and whispered quietly enough so 22-20 couldn't hear their plan, or as they hoped, soon to be plan.

"What are we gonna do?" Pat asked looking around at the group.

They thought about it, until Reyald got an idea, "We agree to his plan. We do as he says."

"Are you crazy?!" Ariara asked as if he was insane. "Didn't you hear what he said? If we make a wrong choice, someone might die. You might be you or any of us too. None of us wanna lose each other or innocent people to death."

He sighs, "I know, it's a crazy plan. But it might be our only option. He'll kill us anyways. We might as well try to save people the best we can, without him knowing of course."

The girls nodded as Ariara spoke up, "I'm sorry if I got mad about it..."

He gently put his hand on her back, "No really, it's alright. I understand your concern. I questioned it myself while I thought about it, actually."He then added, "Anyways, do we all agree about this? Or does anyone have any questions? Or have a better plan?"

"Now we just gotta hope that those people don't die." Ariara said calmly, sighing.

Brooke had a strong, warm feeling fill her, "They won't. I know it. I have a feeling they're be safe."

"Me too." Pat agreed smiling.
