Chapter Ninety-Six
Triggers


Wren sat in between Scott and Malia in Argent's car while Argent and Lydia sat in the front seat. Wren's phone buzzed making her pull it out to see a text from Liam, "It worked." She said making them look over at her.

'It's about time." Malia said and went to open the door but Scott grabbed her arm, "Wait." He said before they both listened for a moment. "I hear them, too." Malia said making Lydia raise her eyebrows, "Hear what?" She asked.

"Heartbeats." Scott said and Wren sighed dramatically while dropping her head back against the seat, "How many?" Argent asked. "Ten?" Scott said unsure and Malia listened, "More." She said and Wren sighed again before sitting up.

"So are we breaking in, or not?" She asked, "Not. The armory should be empty by now." Argent said and Malia scoffed. "We can take down a few Hunters if we have to." Malia said and Argent turned to her, "We're dealing with a dozen well-armed Hunters who have orders to kill you on sight." He said making them all glance at each other. "Then how are we supposed to get inside?" Malia asked.

After a few minutes of talking Argent sighed and turned the car on making Malia quickly shot forward and turn it off. "Gerard thinks we're gone. It's a good plan." Malia said and Wren shrugged, "It's our only plan." She said and Argent sighed. "And it's not working." He said and Malia looked at him crazy, "We can still do this!"

A sound of glass cracking made both Lydia and Wren look at the window while the rest still talked.

"Let's vote."

"Guys, we just need to give Liam and Theo more time."

Lydia glanced back at Wren who looked at her before nodding at the window she saw a crack that wasnt there before. Lydia reached out to touch it and the crack grew bigger.

"We have ten minutes. Ten minutes before Gerard's people flag this vehicle. Once that happens, we'll be seen as a potential threat."

"Then what?"

"They'll pay us a visit." Argent said and that's when Scott noticed Wren's and Lydia's distant looks. "You okay?" He asked making them jump slightly and look at him, "Yeah... I think so..." Lydia said, glancing at Wren who nodded slightly.

"We should call off this mission." Argent said, "Brett and Lori are gone, and Jiang and Tierney are still missing. Gerard's always one step ahead of us. We have to do this now." Scott said and Argent shook his head slightly. "We're too exposed, Scott." He said and Malia shrugged slightly "You said we have ten minutes." She said and Argent looked at his watch.

"Nine."

"What are you doing?" Wren asked when Scott went to open his door, "I'm gonna lure them away so we can get inside." He said and Wren pinched his hand making him let got of the handle and she quickly locked it. "We need a new plan." Scott said and Malia looked at him crazy, "Not a dumb one."
