Asher smirked, already making a start in the code, “Easy work, easy.” He mumbled, eyes scanning the code on the screen. It was a simple six digit code, well, not too simple as there’s were many possibilities but it was easy to crack for the small male. A moment later, the door clicked open.
"I guess I should say thanks," she mumbled, walking through the door. Inside were several computer monitors. "Fuck, the documents are digital. Walk me through it or whatever."
Asher chuckled, rubbing his hands together, "Wonderful, right, first you actually have to get onto a computer, I assume you know how to do something that simple."
TK scowled. "Yeah, of course." She searched for the power button, located it, and turned it on. "Alright, what next?"
"What type of password is it?" He asked, typing something out on his computer, "Number or word?"
She squinted at the log in screen. "Umm, it doesn't say. Probably a mixture, right?"
"Probably," He mumbled, frowning at his screens, "It would make logical sense to have it as a written password with numbers involved… but that leaves millions of possibilities."
"Well, can you crack it or not?" she demanded irritably, glancing behind her. "I'm sure we don't have much more time."
"I'm trying dipshit." Asher shot back, hurriedly typing away on his computer, "Gimme a moment."
Someone pounded on the door. TK turned around, her eyes widening. "I've got trouble. Were you still monitoring the hallway?" The knocking grew louder.
Asher cursed loudly, "There's four men outside, I've locked the door and changed the pass code so the only way in is breaking the door down," Then the computer unlocked, "Okay, go to the files and place the USB stick in the side of the computer."
She found the files relatively easily, but it took her several tries to fit the USB into the port. "These things are so stupid," she growled, shoving it in. "What next?"
“Open up the USB and set it to one side. Then select the files you want so… all of them and move them to the USB. You do this by right clicking over the files, dragging it down over the files so they’re highlighted blue and then just drag and drop.” He explained with a shrug of his shoulders.
TK did as he requested, although with some uncertainty. The banging on the door grew louder, more intense. "Is there a safe way out?" she asked, still dragging and dropping. "Or do I need to fight my way out?"
"Uh…" Asher's eyes darted over the screen's, fingers hurriedly typing away as he did so, "You can get up through the air vents above you, I've pulled up the layout of the floor. I can guide you through them safely and get you out."
"Fuck," she said, watching as the files downloaded. "I'm short, but I'm not small. That's gonna suck."
Asher winced a little, "Well, the window is alarmed which I can get through but there's security near by. So it's the vents for fight."
"How many men near the window?" she asked, her eyes trailing across the screen as the download inched along. "Damn, these files are huge."
Asher ran a hand through his hair, “Uh… three about two meters away and another two about seven.”
"I can handle that," she decided almost immediately, just as the documents finished downloading into the USB. She unplugged it and returned it to her bag. "Unlock the window," she instructed.
Asher did as she asked without a fight. He quickly disabled the security alarm and the alarm let out a soft beep to signal it was off, "You're good."
"Great," she said with a brief, dangerous smile. She threw the window up and jumped out, onto the fire escape. The first three men were blocking her way, armed to the teeth. They aimed their guns at her. She raised her hands slowly. "Hey, fellas," she said with downcast eyes, "calm down." Then she pivoted, her leg flying up and kicking the gun out of the hand of the guy in the middle. The other two fired, but by then she'd already charged at the middle guy, her arms wrapped around him as she took him to the ground. She jabbed him in the face with her elbow then lugged him to his feet, using him as a shield.
"Shoot at me and he dies," she said, but before she'd even finished her sentence, they'd already fired, riddling their own with bullets and grazing her in the shoulder. "Holy shit, you guys are cutthroat." She shoved the guy off of her and charged at the man on her right, pulling out her own gun and firing at his legs. He crumpled to the ground. She turned and fired at the last guy, hitting him in his midsection.
Breathing heavily, she glanced around for the last two guys. They were running up the stairs. "How am I doing? Are more besides those two on their way?" she asked.
Asher chewed his lower lip and groaned when some of the computers started to glitch. He whacked them and they started working again, “Shit pieces of technology. Yeah, there’s more on the way. They’re about two minutes from you so I’d hurry up.”
"Right, cool," she said, using her good arm to grab hold of the railing on the stairs. She swung herself down to the next story, appearing behind the other two men. She took them out with two swift shots, reloading her gun and searching for an exit. "Is there a better way down than the fire escape?"
