I'm a little bit off the finale for now, but doesn't that make more suspense for you?

I had act quickly. Almost mindlessly. I had about five minutes to get Dac and myself out of the tower and down to the underground area. On inspection the device attached to Dac had five second timer. The amount of time that I touched him would be deducted each time.
I ran to the lift which I had seen Sligs go up and down in a few times. I pounded the button and waited for the lift to rise.
I kind of threw Dac into the lift when it came as it would deduct less time than carrying him. I set the panel for the first floor basement and climbed into the lift. The descent seemed to last forever. Dac was the same as ever and I was careful to avoid his writhing in case of destroying the building. It was now that I thought I had made a mistake. I had no idea what was in store for us at the bottom.
I had an idea, I would hurl Dac out first as whatever was at the bottom wouldn't touch him hopefully.
The floor was rapidly approaching. Suddenly we were there and the door burst open. Sligs rushed at us in rows as I threw Dac into the centre of the small room. They avoided him and surrounded both of us.
The familiar figure of Flax stood behind them.
"Very good you'd make a great infiltration expert If I couldn't see what you were doing at all times"
He walked to the side, behind his tall figure was Nat asleep on a chair.
"He too is asleep, he was shot at exactly the same time as Dac. I think it will be an interesting reunion when they wake up, which should be any minute now in fact"

Nat stirred as did Dac. Nat opened his eyes and yawned.
The snuzi drug created atificial sleep and the effect wore off instantly after waking up. Nat, now fully awake set eyes on Dac, now also fully awake.

"Dac!" He cried rushing to him.
"No!" I yelled as they touched

Every Slig and Flax suddenly dived for cover as the sensor beeped. I was left standing with my eyes closed expecting to be swept of my feet by a large explosion. It didn't happen I opened both eyes suspiciously. Some of the sligs were getting up again now.

"Boss, you said it was a threat!" said a slig to Flax
"It is!" Said Flax now standing nearby.

All was quiet, Dac noticed the sensor and pulled it off throwing it in a corner.

Then it came. An almost silent rumbling noise echoing continuously everytime getting slightly louder. We all cowered together as the noise got as loud as someone speaking. It passed slowly over and rubble gathered in the lift shaft.
It started pouring in.

The sligs now stood up and pointed their guns at us three muds.

"You have surved your purpose here it is time you stop..."

The door on the left hand wall fell in and Scar-eye burst in followed by a bunch of other muds.
They moved swiftly all the muds apart from Scar-eye went straight for a Slig wrenching his gun from his hands and pointing it at his head. All the sligs were now not harmful. Turning around I saw Scar-eye slide behind Flax and push him over. He swung his sword down and placed it neatly on the back of Flax's neck.

The odd's were now much in our favour...
