262 The GCG finale - 6

Mike and Simon reached the waterfall point and relayed.

"Commander we are in location. Monitoring the surrounding".

"Hawk-eye how deep is the dead-drop point?"

"Approximately 70 feet".

"Rider will you be able to stabilize if the water starts to fall with pressure on the drone?"

"I will not take it near to the water till I reach the dead drop depth. I will move in depth first".

"Ok, go from Commander".

Mike covered his drone in the water-proof casing and checked basic functionality and then called Raymond.

"Enable stabilizer, down movement, left turn and video".

"Enabling.... and it's a go".

As soon as Mike heard him, he manoeuvred his drone slowly and tried moving it parallel to the waterfall in the downward direction away from the water to prevent any damages.

As soon as Richard Taylor heard about the fourth snatch he turned towards the spocks near the confluence and said,

"I think your services will be better required near the snatch point of team Delphie. Please go and support them".

Then turning towards the man in his right he asked,

"How deep is the waterfall?"

"More than a hundred feet".

Richard sighed as he heard the man's answer and took his phone out.

He re-read the message sent by Sebastian Walker to him and sighed,

"What are you up to my friend?"

Mike had almost reached the snatch point depth, but the wind and water combination was making it difficult to keep the drone hovering steadily.

Mike relayed,

"Commander, enable snatch and hover mode, disable stabilizer and depth movement".

"On it", said Raymond and started the configuration.

But the moment the configuration was complete and he tried to apply it to the drone, it didn't work. He wasn't able to access the drone itself. It was offline.

"Rider drone not accessible. No connection with the drone".

"What since when?", asked Mike all worried.

"Since just now", Raymond replied.

Spock3 smiled looking at their struggle as he had switched on the wireless jammer.

"Try to reboot", Simon said.

"I can't", Raymond replied all worried.

Mike was perplexed as he wasn't able to understand what to do now.

"I am reaching the point now. Keep the drone hovering".

Raymond quickly started for the target spot while Mike tried his best to keep the drone stable under the high wind and water pressure.

Raymond paced hard and reached the final coordinates in 10 minutes. But in the meantime, Gamma Corp completed their third snatch and was moving from the fourth one. It was getting close.

As soon as Raymond reached the point, he again tried to connect with the drone but it was still offline.

"Can you bring the drone up?"

"No altitude wasn't enabled, not possible".

Raymond looked at Simon and then towards Mike. They had reached so close to victory, but now it was looking so distant.

Then Raymond removed his shoes and got inside the water with the laptop in his hands, trying every possible location to find any sort of connectivity.

But even after getting waist deep into the water, nothing worked.

Mike and Simon had lost all hope but then Raymond turned towards Mike and said,

"Do you remember our last trial simulation".

"Yes", said Mike all nonchalantly and then looked at Raymond.

Suddenly his eyes gleamed and he screamed,

"Oh yes. I can do it. Hawk-eye, guide".

"But you don't have all the right motions enabled".

"I just need one right now", saying that he looked at Simon and he understood what he meant and guided him under the water.

Without stabilizer, it was difficult to control the drone, but somehow Mike managed to and then Simon screamed.

"On point".

Without even wasting an extra second, Mike pressed manual override which gave only one control - Snatch. And that was all that he needed.

"And its done. Team Delphie has done it. A loud and clear Victory", relayed Spock3
