Chapter 3: The Breakout

         The hours passed by ever so slowly for the six of them, but the time had finally arrived. It was close to 10:45 pm and they were all ready waiting for Johnny and Luke to begin. Mike and Alex were hiding in one corner of their cell, where cockroaches lurked everywhere. They were hoping and praying this would work. If it did, they would all be able to destroy the rock and stop this war that has been going for seven years. They all hoped that they would be able to be reunited with their families. Suddenly the boys were snapped out of their thoughts by a loud bang.

Alex:"Alright, they have begun. Lets go"He said and they both approached the door of their cell.

Mike:"Ok, lets just hope they keep them busy enough." He said while he pointed at the lock on the door with his right index finger as fire came out of it directly at the lock in a straight line.

Alex:"Come on Mike, hurry it up. Give it more juice" he said getting nervous that they would get caught.

Mike:"Fine." he answered and a blast of fire came out and in two seconds the door was opened. The boys looked at each other and got out of their cell slowly, looking everywhere to see that the coast was clear. The got to a corner and came face to face with two guards.

Guard 1:"What the!?"
Guard 2:"How did you get out?!" They went to attack them, throwing kicks and punches. Alex dodged the punch and grabbed the guard's arm and threw him to the wall. Then he put his hands in front of him and put them together, and the guard that had been thrown to the wall was trapped in an earth layer. On the other side, Mike also dodged the guard's attacks and with one simple hand gesture he sent an electric blot. The guard fell to the floor, unable to move. 

Alex:"Good to see that we can manage them" he said with a goofy smile while patting Mike on the back.

Mike:"Haha, yeah. Lets go get the girls out" he said as they continued to walk throught the corridors. The walls were grey, the lights were bright and the floor was light blue. By the time they reached the girls' cell, the found that the door was wide open. The boys looked at each other with questioning eyes.
Mike:"Lily? Julie? Are you guys in there?" he whispered. There was no answer and they began to get nervous. Right at that moment Alex felt a hand on his shoulder and turned around, but saw no one.
Alex:"How did you guys manage to escape?" he asked and then Julie, Lily and a small boy appeared in front of them.
Julie:"That was easy"
Lily:"Yup, I froze the whole door, and then Julie kicked the door open" she said with a smile.
Mike:"Yeah well, that was not part of our plan" he scolded
Julie:"We had to, in order to get Nick before you guys got here" she mentioned as she refered to the 8 year old boy who was standing behind Lily, holding her hand. He had light brown hair with green eyes.
Alex:"You brought a kid? Why?" he said freaking out.
Lily:"We bumped with him in the cafeteria after we separated from you guys. He seemed as if he was about to start crying."
Julie:"So we asked what was wrong and he told us that he didn't want to be here any more."
Lily: "So we thought of bringing him with us. He doesn't have anyone left..."She said looking sadly over to Nick.
Mike:"Ok, we'll bring him with us," he said while getting to his knees, "so you're going to have to do as we tell you, ok?" he said as he rubbed Nick's head.
Nick:"Ok" he said blushing and then quickly hid behind Lily.
Mike:" Haha, ok I do have to admit that he's cute"
Alex:"He is, but we better hurry. I hear some guards coming closer"
Lily:"Do you guys have the map?"
Alex:"Yes, I took this one out of the guard's pocket"
Lily:"Good."
Mike:"Julie, if you please" 
Julie:"Alright, please don't move so much. I hope that you're all not so heavy" she said and she began to levitate all of them. Once they were high enough, she put an invisibility shield over them and began to move through the corridors.
