------------------------10:50AM
I stood in awe, watching the choppers. I twitched a little, there was no way that I was going to be able to take them all on. I watched as they began to land, in the middle of the street. It didn’t seem like they cared if Civilians observed them perform military operations. I retreated back into the alleyway with the case. I backed right up against the far brick wall and watched as the soldiers blocked the entrance. I was alone, with nowhere to run. Suddenly I heard my cell ringing. I was nervous and I reached into my pocket, and with fumbling fingers I pulled out my cell phone, put it up to my ear and answered.
“Hello, I know you didn’t listen to me last time, but given your circumstances, I hope you shall listen now” A strange voice said on the other end.
“Hey who is this?” I asked concerned at the strange voice.
“Remember when you were back in the hunts clan lair, and I told you that you had to leave?”
I sighed as I remembered the voice. “Ok” I replied. “But that still doesn’t answer my question.” I watched nervously as the soldiers approached quickly.
“You didn’t listen last time, and look at the strife you are in. I know your in strife. I can see it, I’ve been watching you. I know the situation your in, this is much bigger then you could think.”
“I know the lead hunts master is after me” I yelled back into the phone, getting more impatient as the soldiers slowly approached. I held out my glock and ordered them to get back. They retreated a little, then stopped, deciding if they should take me out or try to do it peacefully.
“You have no idea of even a quarter of the situation, my friend, even I know not the full situation, if you knew even a quarter of what I knew, you would shoot yourself right now. Events that will happen today, will not only change your life, if it doesn’t wend it, but it will change the world we live in.” He gave a small snort over the phone.
“Look, just tell me what to do” I yelled into the receiver.
“I have no doubt that given your situation, you will listen to me.” The voice replied. “But also know that if you do not get as far away from here as possible, I cannot keep helping you and they will get to you.”
“Who’s they?” I asked in a panic.
“That is not important right now, what is important is keeping you alive. Consider me a friend. You might recall that It seemed that the hunts master and the American Dragon disappeared. Look behind the dumpster bin, There are some Huntsclan engravings.”
I slowly took a step towards the bin, keeping a close eye on the soldiers.
“Don’t take another step” One of them ordered.
“Im only going behind the bin, where I shall negotiate surrender with you, but only behind the bin” I replied back to him.
“Good thinking” The man on the phone said.
The soldiers still seemed to watch me carefully, but didn’t seem to stop me as I walked behind the bin. I looked down on the side of it. There was the mark of the dragon on its side, just like the birthmarks on our arms.
“You know to use your birthmark to activate a small Portal, which leads you into the building next door” The voice said.
“I know how to use these, I was a head developer for the hunts clan once.” I replied back.
“I know you know, hence I said you know” The voice responded.
“Ok I am slowly going to put my gun down now” I called out to the soldiers, they just seemed to laugh. I slowly bent down and pulled up my sleeve. I saw my birthmark, I looked at it, and cursed it, yet I was also thankful for it at that very moment. I placed my birthmark on the dragon symbol, so every little scar and ridge matched up with the symbols ridges and bumps. I watched the portal open, took one last look at the soldiers, then quickly dived through. I didn’t have time to watch the reactions on the soldiers faces. There was a button on the other side to close the portal. I pushed that as quickly as I could, and the portal closed up.
‘Thank god for these spots’ I thought to myself when safely through. But my problems were not over yet, I had not escaped as I was only in the adjoining building and they were bound to search here. Also the hunts master and Jake were still unconscious outside and at the mercy of the soldiers.
“Tell me who you are and what’s going on now” I ordered the person on the phone. He just replied “Your only priority now, is to run.” Then he hung up the phone.
I heard the sound of the soldiers trying to break down the front door to the building. I did not want them to find me, so I ran into an adjacent room and up a flight of stairs. I knew it was a bad idea to run up stairs in this sort of situation, but I had no other choice. I heard them break down the door. I ran over to one of the front windows. Nearly all of them ran in, except for a couple who stayed out the front to keep on guard. I heard someone bark orders, for everyone to spread throughout the place and find me. It was only 4 stories big, I realised it wouldn’t take long for them to find me. I ran out into a hallway, I didn’t think much, I just put the glock in my belt, gripped tightly onto the case and ran down the hallway. There was another flight of stairs. I ran up it as quickly as I could, unfortunately, I wasn’t all that fit, so I paused for a moments break. I heard them run up to the second floor, which made me prematurely finish my break, and run into an adjacent room, an office. I ran through the office out the other side, where I found another flight of stairs, and quickly mounted them to get onto the fourth floor. There was another hallway there, and a sign pointing into a room, which said roof access. There seemed to be nowhere to hide in the building, so I took my chances and headed for the roof. By the time I got to the roof, I was a little exhausted. I stopped for another break there. I looked around, then walked quickly to the side of the building. When I was in the alleyway, the 2 buildings looked close enough, but from that height, I didn’t think I could make a jump across to the other side of the building.
I ran to the front and looked down, looking for any possible chances of escape. Unfortunately in my carelessness, one of the front guards saw me, and radioed their sightings to the others in the building. I turned back and faced the door, and waited for the soldiers to run up. I began shivering a little bit, I did not want them to catch me. I just wanted to find my twins and get away. One by one, the soldiers ran up to the roof and dived behind some cover.
“Surrender now” One shouted. “You are surrounded, there is no way out.” I took a step back. Something then kind of snapped. I fell to my knees, letting out a sob. “WHY ME!!” I screamed at the top of my voice, then looked down.
“Jake woke with his head spinning. He opened his eyes again, and was about to say “Aww Man” When he suddenly regained his situational awareness. A soldier was next to him handcuffing the unconscious Hunts master. Jake closed his eyes mostly, and remained still, he used eye of the dragon and looked at his situation through a narrow slit he kept open in his eyes. Apart from the Guard handcuffing the hunts master, there were 4 guards out the front, all in close proximity; Jake figured with a surprise attack, he could take them all out without noticing. The guard finished handcuffing the hunts master, then turned his attention to Jake. He grabbed Jakes arm roughly. Without warning, Jake suddenly turned dragon, using his arm to smack the soldier hard against the wall, then he leaped at the nearest soldier, knocking him right in the face. With that as the other 3 prepared their weapons, he opened his mouth and breathed a stream of fire, which burned them severely. They dropped their guns, and began to roll as their clothes were on fire. Jake looked up and saw John. Time to get us out of here, he said heading towards the huntsmaster.
I watched as the soldiers approached. I felt today was getting to hard to handle I stood back up and took a step back, It seemed they were going to come for me now no matter what.
“Surrender now” They ordered again. I took another step back, onto nothing. I tried to regain my balance, but I fell back over the edge.
The soldiers watched me fall and then they ran towards the edge. Suddenly Jake came shooting up from below, forcing them to step back. I was on his back and he was holding the hunts master. Jake initiated a dive. Breathing fire on as many soldiers as he could while swooping over the building. He then returned quickly and dived below the building so that any soldiers that missed out on a hot dose of fury could not shoot at him.
He flew down the road as fast as he could. The Soldiers were not going to catch us now. When we were clear out of sight of the soldiers, Jake set us down. He simply slapped the hunts master up, which was enough to wake him up, but also grab Jakes arm and warn him not to do it again. I was a little torn on what to do, I did want to follow the phone calls advice, but I figured we may as well get the captives. Jake and the hunts master made the decision for me. All it took was a simple “Now for the captives” from the hunts master and I decided it was the best choice. We weren’t far now, but our encounter with the military had put us of course.
It took her over 5 minutes, but Rose finally managed to figure out which key was where and unlock all the locks to the door. One thing was for sure, they definitely did not want them to escape. Rose walked in. Haley looked at her in shock, then her expression changed to one of happiness at the sight of Rose.
“Your alive” Haley called, running over to Rose and embracing her in a hug.
“Yes I am” Rose replied. “But you need to be quiet, To rescue you, I need you to pretend that your still a captive” Rose instructed.
“That’s no problem” Haley replied, after all I’ve been one for a few hours now.”
They walked out of the cell and down the hall. Next rose had to get some Twins. ‘Hope I don’t run into any trouble’ She thought.

“Here, In here” Rose said motioning for Haley to go through the grate into the vents which Rose had crawled through to get there.
“But its icky and dusty in there” Haley complained.
“I know” Rose replied, “but we have to in order to avoid suspicion.”
Haley sighed and looked at Rose once, then climbed into the vents. The dust that was displaced from her entry made her cough a little bit, and Rose followed, quickly replacing the vents on the Grating.
“Where are we going?” Haley asked.
“Just go forward” Rose replied.
Back in Washington, the emergency congress session was still under way, with most MPs from both sides attending. The vice president was a new one, chosen by the president after the mysterious disappearance of the old vice president just 3 Months ago and he was trying his best to make a good impression, but after being called on such notice, with the president being in New York It wasn’t easy to discuss an emergency that the president had not yet briefed him on. The vice president stopped for a second while he was discussing the emergency plan to take a drink. A loud bang was heard and the room shook a little, the lights flickered. He stopped and looked around a little bit, then started to continue. He was immediately interrupted by a security guard who burst through the door, bleeding from the forehead. He ran into the centre of the room, then collapsed to the floor.
“Everyone must leave” He groaned trying to shout. “Congress is under attack by Monsters!!!”
We turned back onto the road where we could see the garage.
“Murpheys law says we are too late” I whispered, not really knowing what to believe.
“Even If we are, I’m willing to hunt these perpetrators down to the ends of the earth” The hunts master replied. “Even if it means fighting the head hunts master himself. Whether or not it’s too late I shall start with them the captors, so either way, I’m going.”
“Ok, well we need some sort of entry plan anyway” I reminded him.
“That’s easy well just case the place y’all” The dragon said. I can use my dragon flying to view things from above, and y’all can get a good look at what’s visible from the ground.”
“Ok, but we cannot spend any more then 5 minutes casing the place and planning, we need every second we can get” The hunts master ordered.
“We also cannot be seen” I added.
“Ok out through that grating just ahead” Rose ordered. Haley looked, there were 2 Gratings ahead.
“Which one?” Haley asked.
“It doesn’t matter” Rose replied. “They are adjacent to the nursery.
“Why are we going there?” Haley asked.
“I was informed that there are 2 captive twins there” Rose Replied.
“Can we leave then?” Haley asked.
“Yes” Rose replied. Her burns were starting to hurt again, but she pushed the pain into the back of her mind. But this time it wasn’t easy, she was being dehydrated from them, and she was beginning to feel a little tired.
Haley tried to open the grate, but couldn’t seem to figure out how to.
“Allow me” Rose instructed and Haley moved on a little bit, allowing Rose to grab them. “They seemed to be held in place in 2 places at once, with tabs that hold it into place, but if you turn 1 tab away, it seems to lock the other tab even firmer, so what you have to do is twist the grating abit so one tab is out, then turn the other tab, and it completely releases the grate.” Rose explained. Haley looked a little amazed.
“A whole 2 weeks at the academy was spent on learning how to move through air vents and learning about the different types of grates” Rose laughed. “I thought it was a waste of time at first as well, but looks like I was wrong.”
With that she slid her legs out of the vent and down onto the ground in the hallway. Haley followed but had to jump a little way to reach the ground. Rose then replaced the vent. They were bothe very dusty, and haley wasted no time in brushing herself off.
They were in a hallway with a door at 2 ends and one in the right marked ‘Nursery.’
“Here it is” Rose said as she reached into her pocket and pulled out the keys. The began to try each key in the door.
“What kind of school did you go to?” Haley asked.
“What do you mean?” Haley responded.
“Well you seem kind of natural in these situations” Haley replied. “They taught you about crawling through ducts, you carry a cyanide pill which you didn’t die from, what’s going on Rose?”
“Uh never mind that now” Rose replied, “Im busy trying to open the door.”
‘Damnit that was a stupid response’ Rose thought to herself as she forced herself to turn her concentration back to opening the door. Finally after about the 5th Key a satisfying click was heard and access into the room was granted.
It was no bigger then a small playroom, with an adjoining room next to it where the person who was trained to deal with people that young was. Rose didn’t know if they hired a nurse, or if it was just a hunts clan member, she didn’t care, there in the middle of the room, were the 2 twins, they looked in fairly high spirits, as if they were unaware of the happenings of the day.
Rose walked up to the young boy and picked him up. She held her breath for a second and hoped that he wouldn’t cry. He didn’t and she breathed a sigh of relief. Haley picked up the little girl, she seemed a little heavy for Haley, but Haley assured rose she could manage, Haley sprouted dragon arms so that the could manage a little better. Rose and Haley walked out of the room, not realizing that an aware guard was walking down the hall at the same time. He saw the 2 girls walk out of the room, with the twins in their arms and stopped for a second.
“hey who are you” He began asking. Then it hit him. “Hey.. You, stop right there, he drew a pistol.
“Quick, back into the room, Rose shouted and she followed Haley back into the room, shutting, then locking the door.
“What do we do now?” Haley whined as the guard began bashing on the door.
“He is bound to set off the alarm soon” Rose replied looking around the room. She looked through the window, it overlooked the rooftop of the next building, it was a fair bit of a jump, but she knew she could make it.
“Quickly onto the next roof” Rose called, using the staff to blast open the window. The guard seemed to stop banging on the door. “Haley, fly over to the next roof” Rose ordered.
Haley turned full dragon, holding the toddler tightly onto her back, she spread her wings and leapt through the window. Her wings managed to carry her successfully to the roof top on the other side. Rose looked out, she didn’t doubt that in normal circumstances, she could make it, but she was still feeling tired from the burns and she was carrying a child. She took a few steps back, the made closed her eyes, then made a running jump. She felt herself leap through the air, the wind blew in her hair, she sensed the alleyway far below. She opened her eyes a little bit and watched the approaching rooftop. The held her leg forward a little bit, then she made contact. She landed on the very edge of the building and lost her balance then she began to topple backwards.

Nice Chapter. It's a bit surprising that the huntsclan would draw a firearm, rather than some form of Energy weapon, but Mac is carrying a non-standard issue Glock. Keep it up and update soon.
