Just before they left for their mission, Khelfin made a dark joke about bombing the Genesect HQ, he sighed as Maya shouted something to them as they walked off.
“Maya don’t worry, we’re not going to the bomb the HQ.” He reassured her.
She then asked if Aro had a plan, which to be fair he did. He had thought about it all night and had come up with a way to try and get in undetected.
“Well I’ve got one plan, and if it all goes ok we should be as undetected as we can be. First off we need to get to Genesect HQ during the evening, this way the fossil hunters that have stayed will be gone and only researchers will be there. I know a shortcut that will take us to the exact room we need to get to, if we can get any information about what’s going I know where we will find it.” He knew he had made it sound easier than it was but he had to keep positive about his plan, after all if anything went wrong he’d only blame himself.
Aro and Maya made their way towards their former workplace through the wasteland, occasionally battling their way through the odd bandit. After a while they had reached the outskirts of the HQ it was almost sundown and so he sat down to wait for them to see the fossil hunters leave for their accommodation. He looked over to his mission partner. Maya always looked both confident and stern, her selective dialogue backed it up. He was glad in a way, harsh truth was what he needed in this environment.
“Do you see that waste chute, over by the window? It carries any unwanted rock to the waste disposal level. Once the fossil hunters are gone we can use that to get down to the lower level. From there we can get to Lab-02 undetected.” He explained to maya his train of thought so she was on the same wave length.
After a fair while the sun started to set and they watched as the fossil hunters finally left the HQ, a few minutes later Aro nodded to Maya and ran for the waste chute which he then slid down. THUD! He landed awkwardly on the conveyer belt below but still managed to get himself off quickly. He waited for Maya before pointing to a service ladder in the corner of the room. He lead the way to the ladder and made his way up.
As they got to top of the ladder it revealed that they were indeed not far from Lab-02, he checked the walkways before signalling for Maya to climb up and the both of them hurried towards the lab.
They had successfully done it, they were in the base. The lab they were in seemed empty of any people but was full of excess machines and computers.
“If we can find anything it will be in here so let’s start looking” he said to Maya before he started to hack his way into the computer system, something he had done many times before
After a few minutes a voice was heard behind him.
“A...Aro?” Muttered a familiar voice “They said you were dead”
He turned to see the exact person he had come to see in the first place
“That’s just them wishful thinking” Aro replied as he turned and then smiled “Petros...”
The pair shook hands with massive grins on their faces.
“Maya this is Petros, he’s been the only one I can trust since I can remember” he said introducing his old friend with his newly acquainted friend.
“Petros we need to know what’s going on, what happened to Miss Amy? What is cooper up to?” Aro pleaded.
Petros sat down and sighed.
“Ok Aro, I’ll tell you what I know, but then you need to leave and not come back here, it’s too dangerous for you here now” he sighed again as he began to explain
