𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙩𝙚𝙧 20 ~ "𝕋𝕙𝕖 𝕙𝕖𝕝𝕝 𝕚𝕤 𝕥𝕙𝕒𝕥!?"

After explaining to Erica our plan and her inspecting the vent she says
"Yeah I dunno"
Dustin: don't know if you can fit?
Erica: oh no I can can fit I just don't know if I want to
Robin: are you claustrophobic?
Erica: huh? I don't have phobias.
Me and Steve look at each other both of us equally confused
Steve: okay what's the problem?
Erica: the problem is I still haven't heard what's in this FOR Erica.
We all share annoyed glances before asking her what she wants.

We sit down at the table as Steve pushes a banana boat towards Erica
"Mmm more fudge please.....go on" she waves him off
"Ok so this is the route your gonna take" Robin say pulling out the map
"Then we just wait till the last delivery goes out tonight" I add in
"Then you just knock down the grate, jump down, open the door" Robin finishes.
"Then you find out what's in those boxes?" Erica asks
"Exactly" I smile at her, she was still the same kid I used to babysit back when everything was normal.

"Mhm, and you say this Guard is armed?" God how many questions does she have
"Yes but he won't be there" Dustin reassures
"Any booby-traps?"
"Booby-traps?" I question
"Yeah you know lasers, spikes in the wall"
"What?" Robin says while laughing.
"You know what this half baked plan if yours sounds like to me? Child endangerment"
"We'll be in radio contact with you the whole time-
"Ah ah ah Child endangerment" Erica interrupts Robin, at least it wasn't me for once.

"Erica, hi Uh we think these Russians wanna do harm to our country great harm, don't you love your country?" Dustin asks
"Can't spell America without Erica", Dustin looks shocked at this but then goes back to his speech.
"Uh yeah yeah, oddly, that's totally true so don't do this for us this for us do it for your country, do it for America, Erica" he smiles thinking he's convinced her
"Ooo I just got the chills....oh wait from this float not your speech", Dustin's smiles fades and I can't help but laugh
"Shut up" he says looking at me.

"You know what I love most about this country?" She says continuing "capitalism, do you know what capitalism is?"
"Yeah" we all respond dryly
"It's means this a free market system, which means people get paid for their services depending on how valuable their contributions are and it seems to me, my ability to bit into that little vent is very, very valuable to you all, do you want my help this USS butterscotch better be the first of many and I'm talking FREE ICE-CREAM FOR LIFE!"
"Fine alright" Robin agrees.

꧁T͏i͏m͏e͏ s͏k͏i͏p͏꧂

"Alright nerds I'm there" Erica says through the walkie-talkie
"Do you see anything?, booby-traps?" Robin laughs, I smile at her
"If I could see them they'd be pretty shit traps"
"Thank you for that" she answers sarcastically
"Hyyyy yuh" Erica says as she kicks down the grate.

Soon the doors of the elevator opened with Erica standing there
"Free ice-cream for life!" She yells at us
"Yes we know" Steve says shaking his head.

"That's a lot of boxes" I say once we're in the elevator
"Ok let's get this over and done with nerds" Erica says gesturing to Steve to open one if the boxes.
He had opened the top and peered inside and said
"That's definitely not Chinese food", he opens the next two layers before saying "Uh you guys might wanna stand back", me, Robin and Erica all step back up against the wall.

"Dustin back up" Steve says
"No if you die I die" Dustin responded with no hesitation, Steve looks like he's going to fight him but just shrugs and says
"Okay"
"Wait before you open the boxes I would just like to say, I remember at least 2 years ago Dustin said you are a jerk and I'm insane for being friends with you Steve" I say smiling at Dustin while he rolls his eyes
"How rude" Steve says sarcastically.

When Steve does lift the tube out of the box it's filled with bright green stuff
"The hell is that!?" I ask startled
"Looks like some Alien voodoo shit" Robin says agreeing that it looks awfully strange.
"All I can say that it's definitely not Chinese food" Steve says staring at the object in utter shock.

"How about we just take this and go" I say grabbing the container from Steve as the elevator doors close, Erica tries to press the buttons but nothing happens suddenly the elevator starts to shake
"Y/n what'd we do?" Dustin asks
"Don't ask me your the nerd, no offence".
The elevator is shaking like it's an earthquake
"Oh my god we're going down, we're going down!" Steve yells clinging to wall
"Yeah no shit Harrington!" Robin yells back

"How are you so CALM?!" Robin asks snapping me out if my thoughts
"Huh? Oh yeah I don't know I just don't get stressed much" I lie, while Dustin and Erica push all the buttons on the panel.
All of sudden the elevator halts to a stop, flinging a box on top of Steve, Erica & Dustin on the ground then me being launched onto Robin.

"*small chuckle* I'm sorry" I laugh before slowly rolling off of her
"DUSTIN get this box off of me!" Steve yells
"Wow demanding much" I say looking over at Steve.
"Is everybody ok?" Robin asks
"Yeah I'm great now that I know Russians can't design elevators!" Steve yells
"Relax we'll find a way out" I say sitting on one of the boxes.
