Rise of the Rat King Part Five
Climbing back into the jeep, Jillian flipped a silver switch that flipped open the black round hatch to the rocket tipped winch. As a mini green light lit up the dashboard, a round circular target blinked into view. With her paw on the shifter, Jillian carefully maneuvered the circular target till it was aligned with the 23rd floor. Popping the top of the shifter cap to the right, Jillian pushed the red button and watched as the winch shot away from the Jeep with a hiss. With a loud thud, it shot through the glass windows and embedded itself in the hallway wall. Jillian let out a sigh of relief, which was instantly snatched from her lungs, as the Jeep shot up from the ground, hurtling towards the glass building.
With a loud smack, all four tires made contact with the glass and Jillian felt the winch slowly ratcheting the Jeep up. Deciding to give it a little boost, she shifted the Cherokee into drive and floored the gas pedal. The tires smoked and squealed as the Jeep shot up the side of the building and smashed through the hole created by the winch. Smelling the burning rubber from inside the cab, Jillian choose to ignore it, knowing that there was no time to waste. She instead pushed the red button a second time, this time disengaging the winch from the front of the Jeep. As it fell off, Jillian sped down the hall in search of the corridor Moonar told her about.
Halfway around the building, Jillian spot the corridor she was looking for, except something was not right, instead of finding the corridor void of life, there was a dozen rat shaped balloons. They were attached to a black box that had numbers counting down. Currently the number was at thirty and quickly descending. Deciding to get out of there as soon as possible, Jillian stomped om the gas, only to slam on the brakes when something white attached to the balloon strings caught her eye. Throwing the jeep in reverse, Jillian screeched to a halt near the balloons and jammed her left paw of the window button. As it rolled down, she grabbed the envelope, threw the Jeep in drive and speed down the hallway as the timer reached zero and flamed erupted where she had been just moments before.
