This is an incredibly tall tower at the center of the city. A bright light shoots from the top and only a Program can lead you inside. Its guarded heavily and from inside you can see all of the grid. You'd be able to find any tribute when inside.

Barley pulled up on her motorcycle and smiled at Bruce. "Alright. Off my bike." She said jokingly and smiling at him.
Barley nodded and got off the cycle. It turned into a stick again and she looked up to see not one beetle but 12. "That the beetle from earlier?"
Barley tensed, "It has friends and this time I think they bring harm." She said softly and ducked as a beetle spat a green liquid at her. Turning she swallowed thickly seeing it was acidic. At the scent of smoke she laughed and smiled, "I remember that." She said softly and shook her head, "Dammit, i swear if he still smokes I'll kill him." She muttered still smiling.
Bruce tilted his head slightly, on alert "If who smokes? What do you remember exactly?" he asked curiously
"Jonah. I remember he smokes and I very much dislike it. I remember why I dislike it so much too." She nodded, "It's because my father used to smoke and since my dad was the one that blinded me..." she trailed off as the beetle lunged at her and she raised her disc to defend herself.
Bruce threw the disk at the beetle and killed it instantly "Huh-- do you think he still smokes? Jonah I mean?"
"I hope not but knowing that stubborn jerk he does." She frowned and thew her disk slicing the second beetle and watching as two more headed towards them.
Bruce threw another disk at a beetle and sliced it as well "Well-- why exactly are we here again?" he muttered
"1796." Barley said simply and grabbed his arm, Throwing her disk she killed a beetle and then shoved Bruce in through the doors and caught her disk. Heading inside she slammed the door shut behind her and sighed.
Bruce rose an eyebrow "what does that mean!?" he demanded before sticking a pipe in the door handles so the beetles couldnt follow
Barley shrugged, "Don't know." She said and smiled before starting to walk up the stairs in front of them.
a small letter floated downso....you remember me smoking huh? I'm laughing right now-- I'm on my twelfth cigeratte for the day. Well how about this. I'll quit when you come home, fair enough? Love you Barely. ~Jonah
Bruce groaned but followed
Barley caught the letter and frowned, she shook her head and spoke out loud, "How about you quit right now, so there's a Jonah to come home to." She muttered and rolled her eyes before continuing up the stairs.
Another letter floated down Possibly darling--possibly. We will just see when you get home! Love you Babe! ~JonahBruce sighed "So what exactly are we doing?"
"Heading up. There should be something up here." She said and frowned at the letters, "Bruce. If I don't make it out of here, do me a favor and kill Jonah." She nodded and paused seeing a big door of steel. "1796 is behind there."
Bruce frowned "What do you mean!? Tell me what you think is going on first" he shook his head "and kill Jonah why? as if I could get close enough"
"Jonah should be killed for not listening to me and, you'll be able to get close enough." She nodded and leaned in, whispering in his ear so only he could hear, in truth she said nothing of importance but when she pulled away she smiled, "There I just said my last words. And if I die you have to deliver them to Jonah." Walking over to the door she tested the handel and sighed, "We need to get in there."
Barley walked into the room once the door fell and found herself in a control room. She frowned and looked around until she found a panel of coordinates. Entering the numbers of 17 and 96 she frowned and watched as screen appeared showing a picture of the portal. "Bingo."
"our ticket out of here." Barley said with a smile and nodded, "Now to just find the route to the portal." She began to type in codes. (BRING ON DA' KITTIES)
Bruce nodded slowly and had his disks prepared. A large creeking sound sounded through the building before three large claw marks appeared through the wall-- a large cat-- around the size of an elephant appeared in the window. It's head. The skin was made of steel and electricity bolted over it's body. The cat roared
[yeah]Barley paled at the sight of the cat and pulled out her disk, "Ummm okay. Small girl vs giant cat. Let's beat the odds."
Bruce stood next to her "Correction, big boy and small girl vs. cat." He nodded "Let's do this" The cat put it's giant paw into the room and swiped at the two with a powerful roar
Barley ducked as the paw swept over and nodded, "Think our discs will work?" She asked him seeing that they seemed to be made of the same types of metal.
Barley nodded, "Yes...." She said tentatively and raised a brow. [hmm what movie is that from? it's a disney one... OMG! ALADDIN!]
[yeah!! hahah I love disney XD you even did Jasmine's reaction!!]Bruce smiled and took her hand "Then get ready to scream!" he dodged under the cat's paw with her and jumped onto the slanted roof, they started sliding.
[I know! I was like... "Ugg I can see her eyes and remember what she did but I can't remember the face! and then I got it" ]Barley did exactly as he said and screamed, her heart pounded in fear and she found herself asking why she trusted him.
[hahahaha yeah!!] Bruce took his disk and threw it into a window-- shattering the glass he grabbed her and fell inside before taking hold of his disk again "Now we run!"
Barley shook her head in shock and did as commanded and started to run, "You know, you might be insane?" She shouted over her shoulder shaking her head.
Bruce chuckled and ran after her as the sound of a cat's roar sounded behind him "You know, that's not the first time I've heard that!" he yelled back to her with a smile as they ran
"Somehow I'm not surprised." Barley replied and continued to run. Racing down a flight of steps she frowned, "What happens when we have to leave the building? What if it sits on us?"
Bruce followed after her once they got to the front door he removed the pipe and smirked "Just watch" he notched an arrow and launched it high in the hair-- distracting the giant cat he grabbed Barley's hand and ran out at his fastest pace.
Barley swore and pulled her bike from her waistband. Snapping it she pulled Bruce close to her and the bike seemed to appear beneath them. Reving the bike she sped off, "Where to Bruce?" She asked.
"Didn't have time to get a route, so back to the Grid?" She asked curiously as she drove away from the cat.
