The secrets that bind us.

Chapter 3 | Plot and plan.

Sorry about not posting recently! This chapter was posted late as it was meant to be posted on Wednesday.
————————————

And that's how the night went, Mumbo was going to stay over the night so they could plan on how to obtain the files for the situation, who knows. Maybe even take down the hero HQ!

And after a lot of caffeine, badly made jokes, scar bashing Mumbo around the head with a pillow, talking about what's recently went on in their lives, the plan was finally complete!
They had decided that targeting one of the smaller industries to get the inside layout for the main HQ would be much easier. More specifically the more laboratory based sites, as most of the heroes were stationed around the main HQ. Mumbo would go and target a apartment away from the site using TNT and his ability's while scar would break into the lab and grab whatever files and supplies they needed.
And although the plan seems easy enough to pull off, it also seems foolproof enough, as long as next week Friday they put it in motion.

SCARS POV

After one long slow week working at the casino scar owned, it was finally time, just have to wait for Mumbo to arrive grab whatever they need for the plan and go make one big performance.. that's sure to alert any heroes nearby.
A knock on the door made scar come out of his thoughts as he ran to go open it, unlocking the locks from the inside and pulling the handle. Mumbo stood outside leaning on the wall whistling to himself, a smile appearing on his face when he sees him open the door, the tall slender figure following scar inside.

"How you doing scar? I've not seen you in, what? About almost a week?" Mumbo chuckled as the other smiled at the tall slender man, setting himself down onto the sofa in the living room
"I'm doing okay! Been pretty boring at the casino recently but I'm sure it will liven up soon." He laughed, his face holding a broad smile.
"So, you got all your stuff ready for the plan?" Mumbo hummed tapping him fingers on his leg, Looking around the room for the thousandth time.
"Yep! It's all prepared in my room, I'm not that big of a spoon." He started walking towards his room going to grab the items, leaving Mumbo to his own devices in the living room.

A bit of fooling around later they finally got out the block of apartments they resided in. climbing the stairs on the side of the building until they reached the roof, the sun was setting so it wouldn't be long until the night covered their movements up on the rooftops.
"If we move along the rooftops on empires street it will be quicker to the lab site." Scar whispered to the man on his left side.
"If you say so!" Mumbo chuckled back, putting on black finger gloves and his mask while scar  put on a regular black face mask and tied up any extra hair into a small ponytail before grinning at Mumbo.
"Follow me!" He said, although his voice was slightly muffled by the face mask.

And so they both started jumping across the rooftops, it was pretty easy going roof to roof, as most of the larger buildings had flat tops instead of pointed, after around 30 minutes they finally arrived at the apartment.
"Right, so your going to set up a TNT duplicator near the apartment and blow it up to alert the heroes to go over there if I'm correct?" Scar hummed.

"Exactly! And hopefully If I'm correct I'll have enough time to leave before they actually find where I'll be setting the TNT off."

"Alright, I'll alert you on the communicator when it's go time." Scar smirked before dashing off to the direction of the lab site, the silhouette of the lanky figure becoming smaller and smaller as scar continued on.
Before he actually knew it, he was there. Scar positioned himself on a rooftop crouching down, before clicking a button on the old device sending a alert for Mumbo to start the TNT duplicator.
A very far off explosion was heard, after waiting a minute he dived down from the higher roof and through one of the conveniently open windows in the laboratory.

He appeared to be in a standard lab room, no one inside he walked up to the wall and leaned heavily against it as he opened the door, quickly peaking his head through to check for anyone In the halls.

Empty.

He walked out in the hall quickly opening a door after checking no one was inside, it seemed to be just another plain laboratory. Scar continued to check door after door and after finding 1 cafeteria, 20 standard lab rooms, 2 toilet blocks, the front entrance + a receptionist he wasn't spotted by and finally 3 experiment rooms. He found it, he found the files room they had been looking for, with no one spotting him as well!
He peaked inside the room, it was pretty bland, cream painted walls with no wallpaper at all. That weird carpet you would find in a office or school covered the ground of the room as there was stacks upon stacks of filing cabinet.
Giving out a hum, he took a small bit of notepad paper that had a file row and number that he would have to look through.

K, 24.

He strolled passed aisle through aisle of the filing cabinets, the room seemingly to get longer and longer as he continued through,

A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K.
Bingo!
He quickly walked down the aisle of files listed in the K category each cabinet listed 1-10 then 10-20 then 20-30 which was what he needed. Quickly opening the file drawer filled to the brim of files from 20 all the way up to 30, he quickly scrolled his finger through them
20.. 21... 22.. 23... aha! 24. He quickly pulled the file out. Tucking it away in his inventory for safe keeping, about to close the drawer when he noticed a file had fell when he picked up number 24. Picking it up Scar realised it was differently coloured to the others, actually it was very different to the other files, this file that had dropped out was coloured purple. A weird portal like pattern you would find in the central hub portal on the files outerlayer, the language of the file he didnt understand either, scar just decided on it that it would probably be japanese or something that used symbols to write.

                        "P∷𝙹⋮ᒷᓵℸ ̣  24"
      "Follow up to creature from case 24."

The subtitle on the front of the file convinced scar it was something to do with his case, tucking it away next to his file safely. Now it's time to just get out of here, scar opened the door walking out into the hallway looking for a window to get out of.

He froze.

Down the hallway was two people, a brown haired man with goggles and a strangely villager looking person with a white coat. The brown haired man quickly pulling out a phone like device.

A alarm went off.
