Rise of the Night 16
Previous ChapterNext ChapterWith his head on her lap he thought of the special request he made from the armory. He wondered if they managed to get enough for the mines. He went back to sleep on her lap. He was woken suddenly by Lyla shaking him.
“Come on sleepyhead. We're at the mines.” she said as she moved his head and got out of the truck. He got out of the truck and looked at the mines. The entrance to the mines was a simple cave and there were two other trucks. The truck was labeled Adult Playtime. Shadow simply looked at the truck and then back over to Shiva who was leading members on as they unloaded the truck.
“Shiva please tell me this truck isn't full of your toys but the weapons we need to guard this place?” Shadow asked with a disgruntled look on his face.
“Don't worry your precious toy guys are in her somewhere. However a lady needs her toys and I am much harder to keep happy then you.” Shiva answered flauntingly. After about thirty minutes of waiting they had finally started to unloaded the weapons.
“Finally please tell me the armory got my order filled in time?” he said starting to go though the crates.
“Barely. It took sometime but we managed to get all of the mines you ordered.” on of the members said fishing out of a crate a stack of fifty very thin disks.
“What are those?” Congo asked.
“Magi anti personal mines. A magi sets it up to recognize certain magic types. You see each magi has his own magic frequency that emits at all times. No magi has the same frequency so once I get this set of mines to recognize my frequency no magi can get inside without getting blown to pieces. So that means while we are here that fucker can't get inside.” Shadow said a little bit pleased with himself. He pushed his magic through all of the mines and handed them back to the members to place around in the tunnels. Hours passed as everyone worked to get crates unloaded and the mines set up. It was almost around eight pm when Congo called everyone that had arrived so far into the caves.
“From now on this is our home for right now. It might not be as cozy as the catacombs but still you know the drill. Now I spent the past couple of hours setting up the watch so with out further ado lets get some chow made.” Congo said. There were several cheers and Shadow finally caught up with Lyla after she had spent the entire afternoon teaching Kit the mines layout. Several people started to pass out food and started to make fires. There was the cracking of eggs and sizzling of pans as they prepared dinner. Congo, Shadow, and Lyla all sat down and discussed what their next move was. Shadow claimed he still had some contacts on the inside of Manehatten, as well did Lyla. Congo suggested that they waited for an opening to fight the council. After a while food was being served and eggs was given to all the members. There was chatter and shouts as they all celebrated a so far successful transfer to the new base. It is unclear on how it started but from somewhere in the room someone had thrown a handful of eggs across the room. The eggs landed perfectly on Congo's head and the entire room erupted into laughter. Hell even Shadow and Lyla who have been through hell the past two days were laughing. Congo's answer to the insult was simply picking up and plate of eggs and flinging it across the room. Soon enough the entire room was in a food fight, everywhere eggs were flying. It was all fun and games until Shadow and Congo threw eggs at the first person who walked into the room. Then the room fell deathly quite. Shiva stood there with eggs dripping off her uniform and hair. Shiva simply pulled the whip off her hip and lashed it out at Congo and Shadow's legs.
“Lyla feel free to help me put some discipline into these two.” Shiva said as she started to drag both Congo and Shadow who was scream bloody murder to be freed or helped.
