Reagan

Luka and I were making our way toward the dormitory that had been indicated on the detonation device that the bomber had in his possession. We needed to get all of the bombs that he had placed in that building. I knew that we weren’t supposed to touch them, and that we should leave them in place, but I couldn’t do that. Not with the fact that there were so many people in the building at the time. I couldn’t let them get hurt like that. I needed to save them. I didn’t want a single person getting hurt today. Not because of that man’s hatred for me and my people.

There was a problem that I knew that we would be facing though. A problem that I knew was going to stop Luka and I from getting into the building right away. And that would cost us precious time that we didn’t have at the moment. And that problem presented itself in the form of a locked door that led into the building.

The moment that Luka and I made it to the dormitory, we both started to pound on the door and alert the staff that we needed their attention right away. A security that was on duty came over and opened the door, but he blocked our way inside, clearly unnerved by us already.

“Can I help you, boys?” There was annoyance and suspicion that filled the guard’s eyes.

“We need to get inside right now. And you need to evacuate the building.” I told him frantically.

“Excuse me?” He looked at me with narrowed eyes, clearly not willing to believe a word that I had to say.

.....

“There are several bombs in the building. The FBI and local police are on their way, but we need you to get out of here immediately.”

“Look boys, this is not a matter to be joking around about. You can get into serious trouble by making these false claims.” He tried to dismiss us, he even started to turn away from us so that he could go back to his chair and newspaper that had been occupying him.

“This isn’t a joke.” I shouted at him. “We’ve already apprehended the suspect and collected six of the bombs that he had in his possession. He has planted some of the others here in this building. You need to evacuate everyone in the building and get them off of campus. Get them to the parking lots on the other side of the quad.”

“I can’t do that. Not without direct communication from the police department. If what you’re saying is true, then why haven’t they contacted me yet?” He narrowed his eyes, and I knew right then and there that I would need to force my way past the man. And I truly didn’t want to do anything that would be seen as violent, not with so many security cameras on the campus. Someone would get a hold of them and give them to the media. So far, the most violent thing that any of us had done today, was tackle the would-be bomber to the ground. And that wasn’t all that violent, not in the grand scheme of things.

“Listen to me.” I started to plead with him again, but that was also when Luka spoke up. His voice was calming and almost hypnotic. When I looked at him, I saw that his eyes had turned red rather than gray. He was using some of his latent abilities to get us inside the building.

“Sir, please listen to reason. There are several bombs hidden in your building. The residents that are living in this hall are in danger. The staff is in danger. You are in danger. We are not evil or bad men, we are just trying to help. We want to find the bombs and take them out of the building. We are working with the police. We have permission from Captain Devon Scott of the Colorado Springs Police Department, and from Rawlynne Otsana-Martin of the FBI. They themselves are on their way here at this very moment, as are King Reece and Queen Trinity of the s.h.i.+fter and magical worlds. This is a ma.s.sive event that will affect the world. We are just trying to be of a.s.sistance. We do not wish to have anyone hurt today. We do not want anyone to be hurt, maimed, or to lose their lives. Please, I implore you to believe me.”

The soothing and hypnotic notes that were in Luka’s voice seemed to be lulling the guard into a sense of trust and understanding. His eyes had glazed over for a few moments while Luka had spoken, but now they were back to being sharp and on edge.

“There are really bombs in the building?” He asked Luka, a state of disbelief coloring his voice.

“Yes, and we intend to find them. We can trace them by their scent. With our extraordinary senses and abilities, we are able to locate the dangerous devices. If you would just let us in, please, we will spare the building from any damage whatsoever.” He was still speaking in that hypnotic way.

“Alright then, get in here and find them.”

“Thank you, and please, while we are working on that, I would like you to evacuate the students and staff from the building.”

“Yeah, I will.” The guard nodded and started to head off in the other direction. However, he must have thought of something and turned back. “Here, my keys. Just in case you need to get into a locked room. They will get you into any room in the building aside from the dorms themselves. The bombs aren’t in the dorms, are they?” A look of fear in his eyes as he asked that told me that he sincerely hoped that they weren’t.

“I do not believe so. I think that they are in the maintenance rooms.” Actually, we knew for a fact that they were in those rooms. These were most likely the first place that the bomber had started his bomb planting, and had the most clear and coherent indicators for these places. I felt bad for Rika and Lyssa though, because at the end of the list, where the last of the bombs were located, the maniac’s locations became less and less clear.

Taking the guards keys, Luka and I started toward the stairs at the end of the hall while the guard went to find his colleague. They were going to work together to clear the building of the students and staff. I hoped that they got them all out, but there was no reason that Luka and I couldn’t help them as well.

As we ran, Luka and I pounded on all the doors that we could and shouted in our loudest voices.

“GET OUT! THERE ARE BOMBS IN THE BUILDING! THIS IS NOT A JOKE OR A TEST! GET OUT! GET OUT! SAVE YOURSELVES!” We shouted these words repeatedly as we moved throughout the building.

When we got to the first of the maintenance rooms that had been indicated, we used the keys to open the door. It wasn’t hard to see the bomb, as the dumba.s.s had literally just sat it in the middle of the room in plain sight.

“There it is.” I told Luka. “I will take it outside and put it somewhere safe. You move onto the next floor. I will be back as soon as I can.”

“Yeah, I got it.” He nodded and started up the stairs toward the next room and the next bomb. I, on the other hand, headed back down the stairs toward the door and the day outside. I needed to make sure that there was no one able to get to these bombs while I was inside with Luka looking for the other bombs.

Knowing what needed to be done, and having had lessons in magic that I could draw upon, I pulled magic toward me and made a barrier. This was an almost visible barrier that the others could see around me, but they weren’t able to move in that area. Subconsciously, they should just avoid the area altogether.

While I was outside, I saw the students that had exited the building recently. They were all looking back at the building with bewildered and confused faces. They weren’t leaving though, and that was bad. They weren’t safe there. They needed to get away from all the school buildings. All of them.

“MOVE IT!” I shouted at them. “THERE ARE BOMBS IN THERE! THERE IS ONE RIGHT HERE, DAMMIT! GET OUT OF HERE!” I shouted at them, letting the full gravity of the situation fill my voice so that they could see that all of this was real and not just an evacuation drill for them. “GO!”

Finally, something about the way that I had spoken or the urgency in my voice had them all running. All of the people started to flee the scene, some of them screaming. I knew that I had scared them, but I needed them to be scared. I needed them to get to safety as soon as possible.

When the students that were leaving the building now saw the others leaving, a lot of them screaming, they started to panic as well. They started to scream or cry out in fear and they hurriedly ran away.

As I was running back into the building, I saw Luka coming down the stairs with another bomb. He was getting it out to safety, just like I had done.

“Put it there, in the barrier.” I told him, knowing that I had set it for him to be able to enter the area as well.

“Got it.” He said as he tossed the keys to me. “Go get the next one.”

“Already on my way.” I told him as I caught the keys while running.

We moved in this fas.h.i.+on for a little while, getting the bombs from all the floors and taking them outside. We told the students and staff to flee and get to the parking lots, and continued to work. The security guards, seeing the proof of what we had told them, had no more lingering doubts in their minds. And they didn’t leave the building until they were reasonably sure that there were no more students left inside.

After all the maintenance rooms were checked, Luka and I did one more search of the building. Most of the dorm rooms had been left open when the students had left them, so we were able to do a cursory check of them before moving on. For the doors that were closed, we just had to use our noses to see if we could smell any of the explosives on the other side. If we had been able to smell them, then we would break the door down and check for the bombs in there.

In fact, there was only one room that smelled like the bombs, other than the storage rooms. And that was a single room on an upper floor. The room reeked of the bombs, and of the scent of the bomber. This was his room. He had stored those bombs in here until it was time to plant them around the campus.

I made a note of the room number and left with Luka to the next location on the list. I knew that the police and FBI were here already, and that they would be coming to find us sometime soon. This situation that was so much more than just the two of us was about to be handed over to the people that were trained to handle it all. I knew that, and I accepted that. I would return to the parking lot when I was asked to, and once I was there, I would talk to my parents about what had been happening here today. From there, I would work with them to do what needed to be done.
