In a process of trying to somewhat catch up to where my current writing is, will present this story in a single long post as usual. Maybe next one, forgot how long it is.

Emergency Entrance
The Thear Trio met again at their oval table. Geo sat at the head, "Okay, we all know the plan?"

Magus who sat furthest away from Geo spoke first, "We've gone through this plan every minute of every day for the last week. If we don't know it by now, we never will."

Raged reached down the table and smacked Magus across the face, "You idiot! Even if we go through this plan another hundred times, we must make we know it so don't give him any lip."

Magus rubbed his cheek, "Okay I get it. Still, my brain hurts from constantly going over this plan. It may be drilled in so well, its going to leak out the other side."

"Point taken Magus."

"Now Geo, do you actually think you can pull this off. I am ready for my end, are you?"

Geo barely looked in Raged's direction, "I've been practicing and I am certain I can do this. Not with ease, but I can do it."

"If you say so boss."

"I never thought these words would come out my mouth, but I think we should take Magus' advice. It is time to rest. We strike early."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bright and early the next morning, the Trio found themselves standing outside of the GAMES HQ. Each member took time to stare at the structure in awe. The countless pictures they combed through did not do it justice. The building stood as a marvel of modern architecture.

"I know we are all thinking it. It truly is a majestic building," Raged broke the silence," it is a shame that we have to blow it away today. So take it in boys. We will be the last people to set eyes on this building in one piece."

"Haha," Geo now spoke, "I almost feel bad. Almost."

"Now that we are done staring, are you ready to begin?" Magus asked.

Geo and Raged responded "yes" in unison. They moved in close to Magus.

"Hands and feet must remain inside the elevator at all times. Next stop, top of the building." The ground beneath the Trio began to shake as it slowly rose.

"Just remember to take it slow. We need to make sure enough time is spent on each floor." Geo reminded Magus.

"We've only gone through this plan a hundred times. Of course, I forgot." The sarcasm in his voice did not impress Geo nor Raged.

"And before you say anything, I know to give as much cover to both of you as possible. If one or two stray shots hit Maggy over there, not my fault"

"Okay." Geo held back his laugh he had to remain focus. He closed his eyes and focused all of his energy at the GAMES building in front of him.

In his mind, he thought about how crazy this plan was, but he could never share it with Raged and Magus or they would lose confidence in here. Some wild dream had allowed him to concote this plan where the GAMES building would act as a giant ballon. He would use his powers to build up the air pressure in the building and just when it reached its boiling point, Raged would add a spark blowing the building sky high.

It better work, Geo thought to himself.
--------------------------------------------------
For the first few stories, they met with no external defense forces. The management must have felt that any attack this low down would be thwarted inside.

The first sign of the building's defense did not materialize until around the 13th floor. Nets shot from higher floors trying to encapture any would-be criminals but Raged burnt through them before they could even make contact.

Then came the side-mounted turrets. They fired a barrage of bullets in the general direction but this time Magus reacted by putting up a huge stone wall that cut off the bullets' trajectory. Raged finished them off by burning the bases and sent them hurtling down the side of the building. Miraculously through this all, Geo kept his focus.

Finally, there were giant beams that shot out at random from the building. Magus found that his rock wall barely withstood the blast and the gaps never remained open long enough for Raged to fire the core so they got extra vigilant as they made their ascent.
-------------------------------------------

Okay I lied. I will try and have the next part ASAP but only so much time can slack off.

Won't point fingers, but took a survey and you were voted most likely to be the douche in the trio. :lolz:

There next major obstacle came a few stories above the random beams. This time it was winged soldiers with blasters. Taking care of them proved to be a difficult task as they performed like artist in the air. They weaved and dodged with such grace.

Raged tried as best as he could to knock them out of the air, but all of his attacks were in vain. Magus than tried to take up the defense, but they found gaps in his walls and had such pinpoint accuracy.

Finally, Geo had to break his concentration. He opened his eyes and leapt high into the air. He took out his scythe, a tool he never left home without, and let out wave after wave of air. Some of the air-guards dodged it but had their jetpacks dislodged while others were not as lucky and simply had their head roll to the ground beneath.

Then there was a stillness in the air that was more disturbing than peaceful. Geo rejoined his group on the rock formation. "Continue!"
-----------------------------
They reached their destination. It was not quite the top of the building as Bond had set up shop a few stories down. They listened in on his conversation. They could hear shouting.

Raged recognized one of the voices, but he could not put a face or a name to it.

Geo once again opened his eyes, "Everything should be in order now."

"Excellent." Raged responded.

"Wait for my signal then give this building a spark." Geo waited until the right moment when he could feel the pressure inside building up. He gave Raged a thumbs up.

"Great!" Raged had such an evil look in his eye. More than Geo and Magus, he took pleasure in harming others.

He slowly lit the sides of the building on fire. Slowly, careful, delicately not because it was needed, but because he wanted to prolong this experience. It was not everyday you got to take out a building filled with hundreds.

Then it began, the first floor blew out beneath and they could see the explosions climbing the side of the building.

Geo turned to Magus, "I think it's time we make our entrance."

Before Magus acted though Raged shouted out, he had finally connected the voice. "The Professor!"

"Who?" Magus asked.

"The Professor. Some great teacher in this fancy university. I saw him give an interview a few weeks ago, I wonder what business he has with Bond."

"Only one way to find out," Geo said as he turned to Magus, "time for our grand entrance."

"Then let's." Magus sent a huge rock through the window. Glass shattered and flew in every direction.

Magus then lead his rock formation against the horizontal plane into Bond's office.

"Sorry for interrupting this PTA meeting," Raged said with a dry tone, "but I believe we had an appointment today as well."
--------------------------------------------------------------

Okay that is the end of that. Like said, this was shorter than the others and wanted to do in one post, but work and all.
