119 Out of the Sewers

'You already rescue the whole team?'

Why did we even come then?... It was difficult to believe that a cat has rescued the complete team.

'Not all of them~… Scott died in the fight when they got captured, Frederick and Ines condition it's severe, Johanna has a gunshot on her leg, but she will be fine~… also, we kinda kidnapped someone by mistake too~.'

How you even kidnap someone by mistake? I could see in the others face that they were thinking the exact same thing. Since Dante created a telepathic connection for all of us, I could hear Dr. Harting talking next.

'You are going to bring them here?'

'Yep~, we are near~.'

'May I know why you need the ice wall?'

'Since you were already noticed by them~, they probably have someone on the way, the wall is for protection and to block the most direct way to get to us~, the other two streets near had collapsed buildings so it will take them a little more time to surround it ~.'

I could see Dr. Harting nodding his head in approval.

'What else you need.'

'Nothing, for now, It will take about half an hour~ for us to arrive and probably the guys I told you will be there at that time.'

We moved in accord with his instructions…after all it was his plan.

Hayley moved to the center of the street that Dante told her and closed her eyes separating her hands from her body just a little. I don't know why but the air around started to blow, moving her hair a little giving the appearance as if it was floating. A cold aura pierced through me, I looked around to be sure that everyone else was ok, but besides seeing them a little paler than before, they were fine.

We all looked at her like idiots for a couple of seconds until Dr. Harting interrupted us.

"We should go look for the guys that are supposed to come. Milo, keep watch, you two come with me."

I was a little reluctant to leave Hayley, but I followed Dr. Harting to the intersection. It didn't take too much time for us to see three silhouettes walking in our direction.

There was one guy that was at least 2.2 meters, the one next to him was tanned with dark hair and eyes. Both of them were following a good looking redhead that was on her mid-twenties.

They stopped when they were a couple meters from us… And stood there. The girl was looking at us, but it was like if there was no life in her eyes, I felt pity for her and wondered about what she had suffered.

'These are servants and goons from the place where they had the scout team, as a distraction I made some of them escape and I used some ways for them to take orders from someone new~… so G~… you have to ask her out~.'

I suddenly got flustered.

'What?!?! Couldn't you just use a code word or something?'

'Yeah, but you need a girlfriend, it's horrible to check your mind in the night.'

I could feel as I was blushing… I was being teased by a cat? Fortunately, the part when he told me to ask her out was just for me I think, at least Dr. Harting and Zak doesn't seem to be giving me weird looks or make fun of me after Dante said that.

I watched her for a second, she had a sweet face and a good body, probably I would have tried my chances in any other case, but the look in her eyes stopped me from doing it.

'You are no fun~.

To my surprise, Dr. Harting went to the girl and talked to her. Is he going to ask her out!?!?

"Hi Emma, can you tell those two that they have to help us with something? We need you to help us take out some people out of the sewers near here."

The girl (that now I knew was called Emma) nodded and transmitted the order to the guys behind her.

'Isn't he supposed to ask her out for it to work?'

'Nah that was for you to try… she would have said yes btw.'

Probably she would have said yes to anything, maybe she was made like that something like Jamie mind's control…

'No, they are supposed to retain some of their personalities so it's probably that if you ask for something perverted she would have said no, but you can always order her though.'

I decided to ignore Dante for the meantime. When I passed by the intersection, I saw Hayley standing still in the front of a giant mirror. Hayley was still there, so she was probably making it even thicker, the size of the wall and the smoothness of the surface surprised me, has her power grow that much since we escaped to hunt with Dante or it was already at this level at that time?

Even Emma showed an amazed for a second before we started to move again following us with the two guys, when I first saw her I thought that she was cold, then when she complied and with Dante's comment I thought she just follows orders, but Dante said something about their personalities being retained which was confusing. Her face right now made me curious, cause it was the first emotion I saw from her.

I was behind her, studying her reactions and face, waiting to see if she could show more emotions or not, but it stayed the same as before.

Zak was leading the group and turned left on an alley that wasn't too far from the intersection, there was a sewer cap in there, and the big guy following the previous instruction took it off.

'Great send one of them inside so he can help carrying people out of here.'

Finally I'm going out of this place…

This should be how hell looks like, no naps, full of rats that you can't eat, you can't lick your paws. It's been horrible.

The light came from the top of the sewer when someone took off the cap, the second later one of the goons descended.

I awakened Cai-Cai and Johanna some time ago, Johanna was the first to leave the sewers.

She went to bow and give her farewells to the rats, I could see some rats fidgeting around nervous when she talked to them… then she climbed the ladder behind the goon and Johanna.

'Cai-Cai is going up too~.'

It took a while to carry everyone one by one out of this place, Frederick and Ines where trickier since we couldn't move them too much and they could help like Johanna either.

'Pinky, we will continue with the plan, when you finish the final part go find us in Green Shelter.'

'Yes, it's been an honor former Demon Lord.'

I wasn't sure how to feel, he was a stupid rat, but it was fun to be around, and it helped a lot to have him and his minions…

'For me too Southern Lord.'

I jumped on the goon's shoulder as he carried Cecily out.

Mmmm~ fresh air~

When I arrived outside, I found everyone on the floor, Johanna was talking with Dr. Harting, about what happened. Johanna and I have talked a lot while on the sewers, so I explained everything about the kidnap to her, at least what I know. She was telling Dr. Harting about it.

While everyone was taking, Hayley finished the wall and joined us with Milo who was looking at me with mixed feelings and a confused face.

The big guy arrived with a big door frame to Frederick and Ines without moving them too much, Zak and G were carrying Johanna and Cecily.

I approached Hayley who seemed a little tired after using her power so much, she crouched and pet me when I got next to her, it was difficult for her because I stink, but she always had a good heart, and even if it was uncomfortable for her she wanted to praise me after my hard job.

"You made a great job as always." She said smiling. Cai-Cai approached to get some pats too.

She took me on her arms and carried me to a building where she cleaned Cai-Cai and me with some clothes. While she was doing that the other finished immobilizing Frederick and Ines on the door, I'm still dirty and stinky but is not as bad as when I first came out of the sewers.

Since everyone was ready, I noticed that Dr. Harting wanted to know more so I interrupted him.

'We can talk when we arrive at Green Shelter, they are getting near~.'

"So soon?"

'Yeah~.'

THUMB!!!

Someone was attacking the ice wall.
