The Plains In Super

Chapter 103 - To The Elevator (Step 2.2)

"And… done!" Fily said after hustling to get the last 30% of the isolation work done in just under five minutes. "I just have to make sure this works from a distance," Fily added quickly, which raised their pressure meter by having almost all of Petunia's traps full except for another five teeny tiny spaces of traps she just finished setting up a minute ago.

"From a distance? Uhmm, how are we going to do that? There are at least fifty people running at the other side of this door and I don't know how long I would be able to keep them from coming in here anymore."

"Then… Let's just make a run for it." Fily said after setting up another set of codes on the light disruption system which she was planning to use as her plan b if things in her original plan do not work, particularly her remote destruction.

"Are you sure about that?" Petunia asked while giving her latest captive a poorer quality of Dreamy bomb in the mouth due to her lacking resources of sedatives.

"Yes, let's go," Fily said and started running away from the door and across this lengthy tunnel once again.

Since Fily made sure to separate the Light disruption system from the Anti-gravity system of this island completely, breaking the glass shards on the wall wouldn't cause another earthquake anymore as they go farther back to the elevator.

But Fily's biggest concern was the elevator itself.. 

Since the elevator was also working due to the stolen power from the Island's anti-gravity system, the same power that the light disruption was used to power up the disruption of the light to the bubble the more it refracts on the glass shards, it was possible for them to be trapped inside this tunnel forever if the elevator would stop working immediately after getting cut out of the power system.

"Petunia!" Fily shouted when she noticed Petunia taking her time feeding the latest Crone with the Dreamy bomb.

But little did Fily know, that it was the Crone's fault all along.

"Spit it out." The Crone that was clutching Petunia's Gummy cloud beside the one that she was feeding suddenly spoke. "You think I'm that dumb?" the Crone added while seeing all the people beside them laying on this icy floor and sleeping like babies.

"Okay," her sister said and tried her best to spit out the Dreamy bomb from Petunia's paws but Petunia shoved it even more to her throat.

"Come on, I need to go now." Petunia said impatiently and waited for the ice to melt first before letting go of the Crone's mouth. "And you." She said while looking at the other Crone who thought she had outsmarted everyone by pretending to be asleep.

"Ahhh, you're lucky I don't have any more of these," Petunia said and ordered her Gummy to shift to its toxic layer, particularly the area where the Crone was holding it from her demise so she would let it go.

"Tell your friends they're too late." Petunia said and threw the last drop of snow potion she could gather from her gummy stash on the Crone's hands before proceeding to follow Fily out of the tunnel.

"Do you hear that?" Lei said cautiously while Von was busy looking at the map in front of him.

"Hear what?" 

"I think it's dangerous here, I hear a lot of footsteps."

"What?" Von exclaimed and finally paid attention to the ground above them. "You're right, that's a lot."

"Are we still going to follow them?" Lei asked for the nth time which Von could only sigh in indifference.

"Didn't we make a deal about this already?" Von said while reminding Lei of the deal that they made just five minutes ago.

"But they're now on the move, look! They're running!" Lei said which made Von open his tracking device, and he was right, the girls were now running away from them.

"We need to help them!" Von said and grabbed the small shovel from Lei and started digging more efficiently.

"I don't think they need our help," Lei said and helped Von in digging.

"They're running, which means they might be in trouble!" Von whined even more which really left Lei with no choice but to help him dig faster to catch up with both Petunia and Fily.

"Twenty-nine…"

"Eleven…" the two of them counted while breaking the glass shards on the wall as they run back to the elevator.

"You did a great job!" Petunia shouted from a distance while Fily was still getting anxious about breaking the shards in front of her that might cause another earthquake if she did it too early.

"I just hope we can catch up to the elevator, you know!?" Fily shouted back at her.

"Fily! There's someone coming from the ground!" Petunia shouted when she heard the sound of groundbreaking not far from her.

"What did you say?!" Fily said while her heart was still beating from the anxiousness of not having enough time and data to compute the perfect timing of destroying the glass shards around her aside from losing the faint oxymedized yellow glow it got from the power sources.

"There's something, from the ground!" Petunia shouted with all her power but was immediately overtaken by Fily's scream when the ground in front of her suddenly collapsed.

"What the hell?!" Fily's high-pitched scream reached the door to the Crone's headquarters which gave the people over there more reason to run after them.

"Oh no!! A lot of people are running after us!" Petunia and meowed while her Gummy cloud yeeted her across her distance to Fily, only to see Von and Lei trying to calm Fily down.

"What are you two-?" Petunia asked but was suddenly alerted when her senses tingle from the number of people coming right after them.

"Fily! Fily? Let's go!" Petunia said and tried to pull Fily away from her stunned position but Lei and Von interrupted her.

"How do we get out of here?" Von asked seriously.

"Right, show us the way, I'll carry Fily." Lei offered which Petunia really had a hard time refusing.

"Just go straight to the elevator." Petunia murmured and flew faster than any of them back to the elevator.

'It was good to have Von and Lei's help but they really shouldn't be freed just yet!' Petunia thought to herself while thinking of another way to surrender the two back to the Crones once and for all after making use of their offer to help.
