“NINETY-EIGHT PERCENT…”
Not wanting to wait for more guards to arrive, you grab Bernard by the arm. If not for the muscle that he’d accrued over the summer, his shoulder would be a goner as you drag him along without warning, back towards the server mainframe room.
“NINETY-NINE PERCENT…” That final stretch feels like an eternity. You don’t even dare to breathe as you wait for the final words that will seal this place’s fate once and for all.
“ONE-HUNDRED PERCENT… UPLOAD COMPLETE.” When the final words are said, the red light that had overtaken the server room is quickly overtaken by blue– blue that looks like Eddie’s signature color– and any alarm that had once been an obnoxious background noise is instantly silenced.
In any other situation, you’d be jumping for joy and possibly do a happy-dance if you could, but now is not the time nor the place because, as suspected, the guards that had slipped past your defenses have now joined up with the other stragglers in order to take down Boleski and Julia.
What the suits didn’t stop to consider is that Boleski and Julia are absolutely deadly when working side-by-side, the former firing large webs of acid at them, while Julia dives in to finish them off.
It’s poetry in motion, if you daresay.
