Waiting for the end

This is my first fan fiction and English is not my first language. So it's possible there will be some grammatical mistakes, my apologies. Please be nice.
I do not own the Biker Mice From Mars.


Chapter one

It looked like it was a day as usual. Clear blue sky, the sun was warming up and birds were singing. Charley looked out the window of the Last Chance Garage and saw in the distant Limburgers tower crumble into dust again. She smiled to herself. Her life had changed so much since she had met the Biker Mice. Before that, everything was grey, alone and cold. But now she felt like she was reborn, wide awake after a long and deep sleep. She felt loved and was seeing everything in color again. Even if they drove her crazy sometimes, they were her family and she was so grateful that they'd come into her life.

Throttle, the leader of the trio. His calm personality, his husky voice. Always taking care of everything, keeping things under control.
Modo, the biggest of the three, but the most gentle one. Polite, sweet.. He reminded Charley of a big teddy bear.
And Vinnie... Oh Vinnie... The most egotistical, macho and sometimes the most annoying. But underneath that big mouth, a soft and loyal side. Always there for her when she was in trouble.
She loved the mice like brothers, but Vinnie always would have a special place in her heart. Maybe one day she was gonna tell him that. But for now, things were okay how they were. A flirty relationship with deeper meanings behind it, but well hidden.
The sound of motorcycles in the distant distracted her from her thoughts. Loud whooping, singing off key... Celebrating another victory in defeating Limburger.
"Yes", Charley smiled. "Just a day as usual."
Oh, if only she knew that this day was going to be far from usual. That this day was gonna change everything.

Loud engines, singing and heavy metal echoed through the street.
"Ahh, what a beautiful day", Modo sighed happily.
"Yep!", Throttle agreed.
"Another job done by the baddest mamma jammers from Mars, Biker Mice style!" Vinnie whooped and popped a wheelie before riding off loud laughing.
They had stopped Limburger and crashed his tower before lunchtime, could it get any better? Now it was time for lunch with Charley.
"I wonder if Charley already started with lunch?", Vinnie asked with a hopeful glance on his face.
"I'm starving, all this hero work is not good for my stomach."
Modo and Throttle looked at each other.
"You just want to show off with your latest stunts and tell her how amazing you were today", Modo said.
Throttle smiled. "Yeah bro, the big fella has a point. You are getting predictable."
Vinnie smiled too "Well thanks bro's, for acknowledging how awesome I am!"
Modo was about to give a snarl back, but Throttle stopped him.
"You better stop this now, or we'll never hear the end if this."
Modo knew he was right. Vinnie's ego was already big enough and right after a fight, with all the adrenaline still in his system, it always blew up to maximum proportion. And anything he would say, was only going to feed it.

They stopped for a red light, close to the garage. Vinnie was revving his bike impatiently, moaning how hungry he was.
"Can we just for once, just for once, ignore all these stupid rules and just go?! I'm hungry!"
Throttle sighed and looked at his impatient bro. "We always obey the law, Vincent."
Vinnie growled and looked up to the sky, feeling a little annoyed. "But.." He was just about to make another remark when something caught his eye.
A weird looking man was on the roof of a building nearby the Last Chance. He was wearing a white coat with black boots and weird green glasses…
"HEY!" Vinnie yelled. "What is that weirdo doing up there?"
Modo and Throttle both looked up to the spot were Vinnie was pointing at.
"Yeah", Mode said. "Didn't we pound the guy just minutes ago?"
"And buried him under a building?", Throttle finished.

They were about to ask the man (or whatever he was) himself, but when they saw the bazooka in his hand, they stopped. It was like time stood still. Karbunkle looked at them and smiled. He said nothing, but the mice could feel his intentions. Payback time. Karbunkle aimed the bazooka at the Last Chance Garage and before any of the mice could react, he fired it.
They watched in horror when the rocket made his way to the garage. They were not able to move, they could only watch and wait for the explosion that was gonna change their lives forever.
For moments, the only sound was the high tone of the rocket flying through the air. And then… BOOM! A deafening explosion when the rocket hit the building. Rocks were flying in the air and the power of the explosion knocked the mice of their bikes. Rocks were falling back on the ground and after that… silence…
The mice were lying on the ground with shocked looks on their faces. Before them was a krater in the ground. The sign of the Last Chance Garage was blown off, lying inches before them. The only sign that the building they loved so much even had existed.
Vinnie shook his head, feeling numb and hearing a high tone in his ears from the explosion. He stared at the place where the garage used to be and his throat tightened when fear took over his body.
"Charley…", he whispered.
For a few seconds, nothing happened. Then realization hit and Vinnie jumped at his feet, whistling for his bike. The bike immediately obeyed and Vinnie jumped on her seat and raced to the remains of the garage. Throttle and Modo, both recovered from the first shock, followed suit, worried about their human friend.

A quick glance over his shoulder learned Throttle that Karbunkle was gone.
