11:30 PM - Isabelle and Annie find themselves at the side entrance to
|
|
the library. They try a couple keys before finding the right one. The
|
|
door swings open with a quiet squeaking noise. The air inside is warm
|
|
and dry. The door closes and latches behind them. They turn on their
|
|
flashlights.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Following the description Lucas had given, they find their way into a
|
|
small room in the basement. They close the door behind themselves and
|
|
look around. To the left is a desk with a terminal and a bunch of small
|
|
devices connected together using many cables. The wall in front of them
|
|
is lined with racks that are almost as tall as the room itself and filled
|
|
with computer equipment. To the right is a shelf with boxes.

Again, request for formatting suggestions below...
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<span class="speech">I guess this is it. Let's take a look at the
|
|
instructions Karl gave you.</span> Isabelle says in a hushed voice.<br />
|
|
Annie pulls the note out of her bag.<br />
|
|
<span class="speech">First step is turning on the terminal... Hey, Lucas
|
|
said something about using a new floppy disk, can you search for
|
|
that?</span><br />
|
|
Annie walks over to the terminal; Isabelle turns to the boxes on the
|
|
shelf. Annie puts the keys on the desk and inspects the terminal for a
|
|
power switch. <br />
|
|
<span class="speech">There's a box with cookies back here.</span>
|
|
<br />
|
|
She pulls it out from behind the terminal. They giggle. <br />
|
|
<span class="speech">I want one</span>, says Isabelle. <br />
|
|
Both end up taking a cookie before stashing the box behind the terminal
|
|
again.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Annie flips the power switch. The terminal makes a bonk sound and a
|
|
crackling noise. She feels the hairs on her arm stand up as she
|
|
inadvertently moves it in front of the screen. <br />
|
|
<span class="speech">Whoa...</span><br />
|
|
The screen begins to light up.<br />
|
|
<span class="speech">... I guess this is supposed to happen.</span><br />
|
|
Annie looks back at the note. <br />
|
|
<span class="speech">‘Turn on main power switch on
|
|
computer'...</span>, she mumbles to herself.<br />
|
|
She looks at the racks. They are mostly filled with what looks like
|
|
large drawers with buttons on them. The one in the center is different.
|
|
It has a bunch of empty panels, some panels with buttons and lights on
|
|
them, and some other devices.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<span class="speech">I found you a new floppy disk.</span> Isabelle
|
|
interrupts her.<br />
|
|
She pulls a large, square, floppy thing, half-wrapped in a paper sleeve,
|
|
out of one of the boxes. She pulls the paper sleeve off. Turns out,
|
|
it's another sleeve made out of thin plastic with some openings
|
|
that were previously covered by the paper containing a black, glossy
|
|
circle. <br />
|
|
<span class="speech">Lucas said to put it in the computer and push a
|
|
lever down.</span><br />
|
|
They look back and forth between the floppy disk and the computer until
|
|
Isabelle points to a device in the center rack with a large, flat slot
|
|
and says:<br />
|
|
<span class="speech">It could fit in there.</span><br />
|
|
She walks up to it and inserts the disk. Then, she pushes on the
|
|
mechanism in the center of the slot. It latches in place.<br />
|
|
<span class="speech">What's next?</span><br />
|
|
<span class="speech">The note says to turn on the 'main power
|
|
switch'</span>, Annie repeats while inspecting one of the panels
|
|
with buttons.<br />
|
|
<span class="speech">Maybe this one?</span><br />
|
|
She points at a key switch. <br />
|
|
<span class="speech">Let's try.</span><br />
|
|
Isabelle hands her the keys. One of them fits and turns.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Fans come on; they hear the loud noise of air rushing through the
|
|
computer. Some of the lights and buttons light up. Annie looks at the
|
|
note again: <br />
|
|
<span class="speech">‘Spin up boot hard drive'... Lucas has
|
|
also written here: 'Number 2'</span><br />
|
|
The two look back at the racks.<br />
|
|
<span class="speech">These drawer thingies here have numbers on them,
|
|
maybe that's what they mean?</span><br />
|
|
Isabelle presses the power button on number two. It starts blinking.
|
|
The device makes a loud clonk noise followed by a motor accelerating
|
|
inside. Clicking and more mechanical noises. The power switch stops
|
|
blinking and stays lit up.<br />
|
|
<span class="speech">The last step on the note is to press
|
|
‘reset' and ‘load' and to enter something into the
|
|
terminal. They also wrote down a list of commands that might help us to
|
|
find and copy the manual, and ‘Good luck!'...</span><br />
|
|
Isabelle pushes the buttons and they walk over to the terminal.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
After a lot of typing into the terminal and figuring things out the hard
|
|
way - and maybe a couple more cookies disappearing - they find the
|
|
manual on one of the hard drives and manage to get it onto the floppy
|
|
disk. They follow the instructions to turn the computer off and Annie
|
|
puts the floppy disk back into its sleeve.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="comment">
|
|
might want to add that Annie takes the disk out of the drive before
|
|
putting it back into its sleeve
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<span class="speech">Shhh.</span><br />
|
|
Isabelle gestures for Annie to be quiet. She whispers:<br />
|
|
<span class="speech">Do you hear that?</span><br />
|
|
Footsteps. Annie nods. Someone is in the building - and probably heard
|
|
them. Quickly, she puts the disk into her bag.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Opening and closing the door as quietly as possible, they sneak out of
|
|
the room and back towards the stairs. The footsteps are coming closer.
|
|
<br />
|
|
<span class="speech">Shit</span>, Isabelle whispers.<br />
|
|
They turn around and sneak to the other end of the hallway. It opens up
|
|
into a room filled with crates that has small windows near the ceiling.
|
|
The footsteps are making their way down the stairs. Annie reaches for
|
|
one of the windows and opens it as quietly as possible while Isabelle
|
|
moves one of the crates under it - not quite as quietly. The person on
|
|
the stairs starts running. Isabelle jumps onto the crate and quickly
|
|
climbs through the window. Annie, trying to follow her example,
|
|
struggles for a moment to get onto the crate. After she finally manages
|
|
to get up, Isabelle pulls her through the window - not a moment too soon.
|
|
<br />
|
|
<span class="speech">You, stop!</span>, <span class="comment">
|
|
rephrase?? </span> a man yells at them from inside,
|
|
<span class="speech">Stay where you are!</span><br />
|
|
They start running. <br />
|
|
<span class="speech">I'm gonna catch you.</span>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Isabelle runs ahead, leading Annie into a dark alley. She climbs onto a
|
|
ledge on the side of a building, pulling Annie up after herself. They
|
|
continue running on the ledge until reaching a wall at the end of the
|
|
alley. Isabelle jumps, grabs hold of the railing at the top, pulls
|
|
herself up, and climbs over it. <br />
|
|
<span class="speech">Wait here.</span> She disappears. <br />
|
|
Annie looks around nervously. What if she was caught now? <br />
|
|
A moment later, Isabelle returns holding a ladder. Annie climbs up and
|
|
pulls the ladder up after herself. Isabelle takes it and stashes it on
|
|
the other side of the embankment. Annie finds herself between the tracks
|
|
of the metro. The Central Square station is close by, they run towards
|
|
it along the tracks. Just as they make their way onto the platform, the
|
|
rails start ringing. <br />
|
|
Isabelle says with a smirk on her face: <span class="speech">I don't
|
|
think he expects our getaway vehicle to be yellow and red...</span>
