70 Don’t Worry, I Sent reinforcements

Butler left Jamie's room finally leaving behind that annoying laughter. He wanted to talk with Jamie about the plan to look for the cat, but after 5 full minutes of Jamie talking out loud with the cat… well, it was more like screaming at the cat and laughing like a maniac, he just left and made the plan on his own.

Butler was worried about the repercussions that this event would have on everyone's mind and the overall situation, it's not like the moral or loyalty could go down, but the losses are enough to put them in danger if the beasts that are surrounding decide to attack …

He felt that something was not right first was last night attack, and now psychological warfare? Maybe they are no coincidence, and all this was planned, but if it was like that, then what was the next step.

Butler didn't get it, but it was meaningless to think about it right now, and started to rearrange groups to look for the cat outside… of course, he couldn't completely abandon the mansion, so he had to leave some people to take care of what is left of the mansion.

At this time Dante was having too much fun with Jamie when he noticed that Butler was onto something and stopped his train of thoughts right away. Afterward, he guided Butler in the assignation of the groups and interfere on the routes to make sure that none of the groups came into the place he was hidden.

Butler planed the routes and decided that he should expand the searching area a little more than he thought at the beginning. There was something weird about the paths, and he couldn't figure out what it was, but for the number of people he had, these should be the most efficient routes to look around.

Downstairs Spence was waiting for the next phase of the plan to start. In the meantime he had helped make a hole in another wall, he destroyed a couple of things, foolish orders, if you ask him, but Dante was probably behind this too.

"You shouldn't get funny ideas of the boss's girls."

Spencer got caught by a guy while he was looking at the girl in underwear that was moving around.

"It's not that, it's that I find her familiar."

"Yeah sure, we all have found her "familiar" too." The other guy left smirking at Spencer.

Spencer could only wryly smile at this and looked towards the girl one more time. He did recognize the girl.

At that moment Dante's voice sounded in his head.

'Rose says "Stop looking!!".'

He just kept calm and answered him to tell back to Rose.

'That girl is the one in Pyro's photo.'

On the other side Rose fell silent when she remembered, she also has seen the photo so after putting more attention on her she finally recognized her. She didn't notice at first because that photo should be at least 5 years old, but after paying attention to her, most of the features of the girl in the picture were still there despite the age difference.

Before any of them could think more about it, Butler appeared on the stairs and called everyone and started to talk.

"Ok, listen all of you, Jamie's orders had changed, we are going to set up groups to search for the cat outside the mansion."

The moment that those words left Butler's mouth it became evident to everyone that since the beginning the cat wasn't in this place… 'how did we miss that?' Was almost everyone's thought.

Some felt like idiots, and other didn't understand because they were actual idiots, but either way, all of them felt that something was not right about the situation.

Afterward, almost everyone was divided into smaller groups to go outside, except for ten people who were going to stay on the house, Butler was included.

Spencer was listening all and noticed that half of the people that were staying behind were Jamie's followers.

'Dante was this your idea??.'

'No~, these Five usually stays in the mansion~ if I change that it would be too forceful~ and Butler is already finding a couple of things weird~.'

'So it's like that. Do you think they will discover me?'

'Don't worry they shouldn't find out until it's too late~, but are you sure about this? Is dangerous and Rose will be mad at us for hiding this~…'

'Yeah I know… are you sure about what you saw?'

'Yes, it should work~.'

'Then it's our best shot. Continue with the plan.'

Spencer got a slight headache while looking at Butler…

Butler sent the rest of the people in different directions.

'It's me, or those routes are clearly avoiding half block?'

'Yeah everyone but Butler noticed, it hilarious. Some are thinking that he is actually planning a coup d'état, but since they are controlled, they can come here to verify what's wrong with this area.'

'Well that work for us, when they find Jamie's body everyone will blame Butler…'

After sending people away, Butler joined the ones left and divided us again, even if at this time everyone was sure that the cat wasn't inside the house, Butler made pairs and send them to check and patrol around just in case.

The two guys that were at the door, in the beginning, stayed there. Spencer was paired with one of Jamie's followers, the one that is supposed to be good with the shotgun.

They were sent to the second floor of the mansion to check the "Special Forces" quarters, which were already checked a lot of times. Following the instructions, they started to search around the already destroyed rooms, staying in this place was already meaningless, and Spence thought about talking about it, but Dante stopped him.

'Don't bad mouth Jamie in front of that guy, he thinks of Jamie as some kind of god, he is crazy. Try to take him out when you can, after you kill Jamie this guy is going to definitely look for revenge.'

The revelation took Spencer by surprise… Jamie? A god? Some people can think like that?

The light in Spencer's eyes changed and started to study the guy while they searched the rooms, he slowly tried to shorten the distance between them. This way the other guy will not have the time to react when he strikes.

When they were inside a room far away in the south wing of the mansion, and Dante informed him that there was no one near he made a fast strike. A quick slice along the throat. The guy opened his eyes and tried to scream but couldn't, a second later he fell to the floor, without even seeing Spencer.

Spencer crouch to check the guy's vitals to be sure that he had died and left the room.

This time he didn't get a notification, the system just awarded points from people that had a power.

From the 9 people reminding 4 were Jamie's followers, one was downstairs, one was in the north wing, and the girl and Butler were with Jamie.

'You have to move fast someone is coming~.'

Spencer hid in another room, and 2 guys passed by. 'How did they notice?'

'There is one with enhanced hearing~. I underestimated him~… Move~.'

I left the room and went upstairs moving as silently as I could. I felt that something was not entirely right.

'Go inside that room~.'

Spencer went inside the room following Dante's orders without thinking about them.

Spencer opened the door and found himself in the entrance of the master room. Butler was there with Jamie and the girl that could read minds.

All of them turned their heads to see who came into the room without knocking. Butler went in front of Jamie the moment he heard the door opening.

Spencer didn't expect this situation either.

'What is happening?'

Jamie looked directly towards Spencer's green eyes…

"Who are you!?!?Why you are not under my control?!?!?"

In another place, Rose was questioning Dante last instructions.

'Dante, what's the meaning of this!?!?'

'Don't worry everything is going according to the plan.'

Rose had an ominous feeling when she heard those words from Dante and became scared.

'Dante?… what did you do?…'

The cat looked at Rose that was about to cry, feeling extremely hurt.

'How can you think that!! I'm referring to Spencer's plan!'

'Can you tell me what the plan is!! and why I don't know about this!'

'I told him that you will not like it, but he made me promise… you don't need to worry, the reinforcements are on the way, Spencer is going to be fine.'

She couldn't take it anymore and left the place and went towards Spence.

Rose mind started to think about hundreds of options, did Spence got caught on purpose? Who is the backup? And how is going to solve this?
