Chapter 19: Whacked
Rook grabbed his equipment and placed it in a backpack. He equipped his night vision goggles and then followed Alon to the prison balcony. Alon turned towards Rook, "It's getting dark enough now, the Dark Wing should appear within the next few hours". Alon flicked a switch on one of his electronical devices. "This is a motion detector. If it detects any flying objects, it'll let us know". Both Sligs went on standby.
It was a few hours before anything happened. The machine started bleeping. Rook and Alon stood up and looked around. Alon grabbed his gun, "It's here somewhere. Let's try and disable it if possible". Rook looked around, suddenly he saw a shape. "This way!". Rook walked towards the end of the corridor, he saw some movement nearby. Alon followed behind him.
The creature went around the corner, it let out a screech and headed for Rook. Rook dived out of the way. The creature did a u-turn in the air and headed at Rook again. This time Rook held his gun and swung it at the Dark Wing. Alon saw the creature being whacked to the ground. As the creature was trying to get up, Alon stepped forwards and shot it with a tranquilizer. The creature expected this and managed to move out of the way in time. The creature was flying again, Alon was running towards it. Meanwhile, Rook looked at the machine again, he heard another bleeping noise and he heard a screech. There were two of the creatures.
