CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT
"So, that's the plan."
Logan and Iris were at the house with everyone else.
"Henry, do we have any information about that island?"
Lucy calls him out. He immediately starts typing and searching on his computer.
"Not quite. It isn't in the normal world map but you can clearly see from the satellite that there is something there. But, check this, if we try to zoom in, there comes this distortion."
He shows everyone the grey, fluttering screen.
"This means there could be something there that's causing problem with the signals."
"Dad is giving us one of his cruise to use to go the there."
Logan adds
"Now, we need to figure out who will come. We can't take everyone because it will create doubts. Even I can't go. So, that makes it Iris, Logan and Alex...if she wants to?"
All three of them nod in agreement
"And who else?"
"Me!"
Luke excitedly raises his hand
"Aren't three enough?"
Iris questions
"I know how to steer a boat and you do need someone for that."
Luke adds, making Lucy agree with him
"He's right. You four will go this weekend. Leave early morning at 3 am on Saturday, which you can also call Friday night. That's okay with you?"
"Yup."
They reply
"As for Alex and Iris's training class, your weekends are off which you already know. But if it takes you time, I will handle it, so don't worry."
"Thanks."
Alex replies from both at Lucy's offer
"Ella, don't you want to go?"
"I am surprised you aren't saying anything."
Max and Amelia turn to the quiet girl, who was busy painting her nails
"...I am sea-sick so...I'd prefer not to go because of my motion sickness...."
She answers in a low voice
"That explains it."
Luke grins
"Well, I am gonna go now. See you later."
Logan gets up to leave
"When will you start the plan?"
Lucy inquires, stopping him
"Tomorrow night. They invited me for coffee so I have to go there."
He replies. Everyone else was clueless to this except Lucy because Logan would have his own personal jobs.
"Well, good luck. Tell me if you need some help..."
Lucy adds, motioning to his left bandaged hand
"Nah, it's fine. I still have my right hand."
He shrugs and then leaves
"What is he doing?"
Iris questions, curious about his mission
"The rebellion alliance consist of George, Arthur, and one other board member out of the now seven board members. We also have a few captains and two out of ten commissioners on our side. There is this captain who is up for promotion and needs to do a very big, media catching job that will guarantee his promotion. Logan is helping him with that in return for which he and all his men is in our side. Although they are already on our sides, but him being a commissioner will make the odds a bit better as compared to two versus eight."
Lucy explains everything
"I see. How is he planing to do that exactly?"
"Who knows."
She shrugs at Iris's question
"Anyhow, for now I have bunch of tasks for you all. Alex and Iris, you both can go and help them even though you are still trainees, I am allowing you."
"Thanks!"
They exclaimed excitedly.
