Rick led the way into Sotech loading dock. A slight tingle of apprehension wound its way along his spine, but he ignored it and pressed on. The back door hadn't been hard to get through with his security card and now all they had to worry about was the night security. Rick knew for a fact they sat at the front most of the night and only walked through the buildings lower level every two hours.
"Strife don't touch anything, their sensors running through most of the equipment, same goes for you Ryan," Rick said giving both of them stern expressions. Rick pushed through two sets of double doors which lead into the loading dock supervisor's offices. Everyone froze when they walked into the brightly lit office. "This isn't right, the lights are shut off every night after the supervisor punches out. The only people that work late at people in the offices upstairs or the R & D labs," he said with a disconcerted look on his face. "We better hurry-"
The door leadig to the warehouse opened suddenly. Rick grabbed Fay and Fayeth pulling them behind two cubicle walls. He knew Ryan, Strife, and Meilin could take care of themselves, but he still risked a peak out. None of them were in sight. Moving back to safety he sat next between the two girls and breathed a quiet sigh. "It'll be ok, we'll just wait for them to clear out then."
"Have the them loaded up in the next hour. I'm tired of waiting for these twits to finish the job. Bring the rest of the containers down from Reasearch and have them loaded now."
Rick's eyes widened when he heard that voice. It was Mr. Ikol speaking. What the hell was he doing here this time night!? It didn't matter now; Rick had to think of someway to get his pack and get the others the hell out of here. Mr. Ikol was the type of guy to press major charges, and probably bring a law suit against all of them. "You two stay close, we'll find the others and get to the staff room. There's another door there we can slip out of," he said in a hushed tone. The sound of a door opening and closing was closely followed by Mr. Ikol's faint voice. "They're back in the warehouse. Follow me," he said to Raynie and Ray.
Rick hustled out of the cubicle walking at a half crouch. His eyes darted around looking for Ryan, Meilin, Strife, and the others.
