Who:- Jay, Vanessa, numerous guards....
Where:- Big dining hall
The double doors leading out of the dining room hissed shut in front of Jay and Vanessa, causing Jay to run into the doors. Being a pilot, thus, needing good coordination, that was more than embarrassing.
The side doors burst open, and the Chrysler’s found themselves surrounded by armed guards. Jay saw Kingsley slipping out the back out of the corner of his eye.
“Ok bro” said Vanessa “What do we do now, I don’t exactly LIKE the idea of dying!”
“Don’t worry, not gonna happen!” Jay replied as he kicked the gun out of the hand of a nearby guard, taking the gun in hand he spun around and shot another gun out of the hand of another guard, Which Vanessa picked up, the brother and sister were now in the middle of the room, back to back, firing rounds here and there trying to hold off the guards. The guards were still pouring in, “They keep on coming like this there’s no way we can beat ‘em!” Vanessa said
“Well” said Jay, “let’s give ‘em a run for their money, I’d rather go down fighting!”
“I’d rather NOT go down at all!” Vanessa said desperately.
“You’re a Chrysler!, where’d you learn to talk like that?!”
“When we were up against a Chrysler”
“Point taken”
Jay’s gun fired off a few miserable shots then stopped, save for a few measly clicks.
“F**K I’m out!”
“ME TOO!”
The guards closed in.
Jay and Vanessa backed up even closer to each other.
“Nice knowing ya Sis”
“You too Bro”
Without warning the west wall was blown apart, and The Phoenix walked in on its landing legs. Its recently fitted Gatling guns whirring, blowing the guards away. “What the SMEG?!”
When the last of the guards had fallen, the Phoenixes guns stopped and the disembarkation ramp hissed open.
Jay’s jaw dropped. “AMBER?!”
“HI!” she said perkily, “Don’t mind me crashing the party do ya? I got bored.”
“What the smeg are YOU doing here?” asked Vanessa “Not that I’m complaining”
“I stowed away, I hid in the cargo bay”
“You’ve been in the cargo bay for 5 days?” Jay asked, “Why didn’t you tell us?”
“Thought you’d be mad!”
“Well…after that I’m glad you’re here, and I have to say I’m impressed!”
“REALLY?!” Amber said ‘JAYS IMPRESSED WITH ME!’ she thought
“Yeah, I think you have what it takes to be a pilot”
“THANKS!” She said excitedly. “I MIGHT…” she was cut off mid sentence.
“JAY! Look out!” she pushed Jay aside, a guard, at first thought dead had pulled a gun on Jay behind his back, fortunately for him Amber had seen it, UNfortunately for her the bullet hit her, direct in the shoulder. She rolled drawing an LA pistol she’d found in the Phoenixes weapons locker, and shot the guard, square in the forehead.
Vanessa and Jay helped her up. “VERY impressed” said Jay “almost as good as my wife at the whole gun thing!”
Amber scowled, there was that ‘W’ word again.
They walked over to the Phoenix, where Vanessa got out her med-kit to treat Ambers wound.
Before boarding Jay looked up.
“THAT BACK-STABBING COWARD!”
“What?” Vanessa asked
“He’s high-tailing it outta here!” Jay said pointing at the Wildfire shuttle blasting off into the blackness of space.
“We gotta stop him!”
With that Jay sprinted to the cockpit, fired up the engines and pursued his brother up into the big black blackness that was space.
Kingsley disappeared into the dimensional rift. “He’s heading for our dimension, hold on to your shirts girls’ ‘cos were going into overdrive”
The Phoenix vanished once again into the rift.
