Chapter 2

"There they are!" screamed a talon, from the guard's nest. Johnathon Porter Junior took out his AK-47, turned around, and began to fire quick bursts at the guard's nest. Eric, Steven, and Walker rushed passed him.

"Eric, give me your pistol!" shouted Porter Senior. Eric did as he was told, he tossed his pistol to Porter Senior, and kept running to the Sedan. Porter helped his son hold off the guards with his pistols. Steven and Walker were the first passengers to get to the car. Walker got in the back seat of the driver's side. Steven jumped and slid across the hood of the car, and got in the passenger's seat. When he eventually got there, Eric got into the back seat of the passenger's side.

When Johnathon looked to see if everyone was in the car, he started to back up towards it along with Porter Senior. Now that everyone had a seat, Johnathon and his father got into the back of the Sedan, and closed the door. Just after the door was shut, Kyle slammed his foot down on the gas pedal. The car lurched forward.

Eric wiped beads of sweat off of his brow and let out a long sigh of relief. But he was then shoved into the wall by Porter Senior, who had his pistol to the back of his bother's skull.

"You blew our cover Eric. We could have been out of there without firing a single shot. But I guess the word "stealth" doesn't mean a damned thing to you, does it Eric." said Porter Senior, as calm as ever.

"You would shoot your own brother John?" asked Eric, a bit startled.

"If push comes to shove, yes I would. But I won't, right now anyway. But mark my words, if you ever steer away from a plan like that again and it puts all of our lives in danger, god is my witness, I will kill you without hesitation." answered Porter, as he took his pistol back and put it on the floor. It was there, that he noticed was a large gray blanket over what looked like some long, narrow pipes. Porter lifted up the corner of the blanket, and saw that they weren't pipes at all. They were anti-air/vehicle rocket launchers.

Porter smirked and put the blanket corner back down. When he looked up, he saw that Kyle was looking at him in the rear view mirror. "Kyle. Were you coming for a fight or to break us out?" asked Porter.

"Kyle, how far away are the Storm Hawks?" asked Johnathon.

"The rocket launchers were John's idea. We're probably gonna need them when the prison guards get reorganized. And the Storm Hawks are about, ten minutes out." said Kyle.

"How long, would you say, before that happens?" asked Steven.

"Sooner than it should have." said Johnathon.

"What do you mean?" asked Walker.

"He means look behind us you stupid morons." answered Eric. Everyone looked back. They all saw about fifteen talons riding after them. The two leaders were Moss, with scratches on his skimmer. And Haymish, with a bloody nose, where Johnathon hit him.

"John, give me Kyle's shotguns." screamed Eric. Porter Senior passed back the two shotguns. Eric took one and laid the other one down on the floor. Johnathon took out his AK-47 and loaded in a fresh new clip. He then opened up the back of the Sedan, when the talons got close enough, and both Johnathon and Eric Porter opened fire. Meanwhile, up in the middle, Porter Senior was getting an RPG launcher (rocket propelled grenade) ready.

"Okay, Walker. What I'm going to need you to do is keep handing me rockets once I've fired them off." ordered Porter. Walker nodded his head. "Okay then." he said. Porter Senior unbuckled his seat-belt, put his rocket launcher on the roof-wrack, and sat up on the window sill of the door. He found a talon that was within accuracy and safe distance and fired.

The rocket hit its target and blew three talons off of the dirt path that Kyle was driving on. Porter smirked after he heard quite a few rowdy cheers from inside the car. He reached his hand in, and received another rocket for the launcher. In the back seat, Johnathon and Eric were shooting the talons that got too close for the RPG. Haymish and another talon were quickly closing in on them. Eric used his last two shells, from the first shotgun, on the talon. He managed to pop the talon's tires, which made him swerve into a tree. Johnathon emptied his second to last clip on Haymish tires, but after seeing what just happened to his talon counter-part, Haymish instinctively switched to flight mode. He still stayed pretty close to the ground, though, in fear of getting blown out of the sky.

When Jonathon's clip was empty, he took it out, but instead of placing it on the floor of the car, he threw it at Haymish. The clip hit him in the forehead, and when he was doubled over in pain, Haymish accidentally hit the booster jets on his skimmer, which caused him to pass the Sedan, and crash into a tree, just like his talon counter-part. Johnathon couldn't help but laugh at him.

After a bit more RPG fire from Porter Senior, there were only three talons and Moss left. But seeing as Moss, and the three talons knew what they were up against, they stayed beyond accuracy range of the RPG, and they were also in flight mode. But what they didn't see was Walker getting on his window sill, with a stinger missile launcher (anti-air missiles).

He locked on to Moss, and fired. Moss was watching the missile getting closer and closer and swerved at the last minute. The missile blew up about twenty feet behind him and, even though none of the missile's shrapnel made a mark on Moss, it sure did one hell of a job on the outer plating of the back of his heliscooter, and it completely tore up the propeller and engines beyond repair.

"NOOO!!!!!!! Not you too Bessie." Moss shouted as he went into a nose dive towards the ground. Unfortunately, Moss had to abandon Bessie after he tried everything he could to get out of the nose dive. He jumped onto a nearby talon's skimmer, which was flying low enough to see Johnathon and Eric flipping them off, with both hands, from the back of the Sedan.

Moss was about to tell the last few talons to attack but discovered that they were flying away from the escapees. After a few seconds he heard why the talons, including the one that he was hitching a ride with, were so eager to get away. The Condor's horn could be heard form everywhere.

"Stork take us down." said Aerrow, coolly. Stork piloted the Condor into a small clearing. "Finn, Junko, get to blasting." ordered Aerrow.

"You got it dude." said Finn, as the side turrets on the Condor opened up. Finn and Junko took out the four remaining talons. As the Condor landed, everyone got out of the car. When the Storm Hawks came down the entrance path, and saw Porter Senior, Steven, Walker, and Eric in talon uniforms, they immediately want to battle positions.

"Whoa!!! Guys hold on a sec." said Johnathon, as he got in between the crowd. "Arrow, these are the prisoners that we just broke out. Dad, Uncle Eric, everyone else, except for you Kyle, these guys are the Storm Hawks."

Just as Johnathon finished explaining, a thin thirteen year old, black-haired girl, ran down the entrance path of the Condor, busted through the Storm Hawks, ran all the way to Eric, and wrapped her arms around him and started sobbing.

"Oh my god, daddy. I thought I was never going to see you again." she said through sobs.

"I know Jessica. I thought the same thing." said Eric, returning the hug.

"I hate to be the one to break up this teary reunion-" said Steven.

"But we have to go now, before Cyclonia finds out about this." said Walker, interrupting Steven.

"Yeah let's get out of here." said Johnathon.

Yay!!!! Second chapter is done. Thanks for keeping up with me so far. Plz review
