Chapter 3: I Need You [Jack's Mannequin]
Zachary Goode laid on his bed and looked up at the ceiling. He let his mind wander. His mind went back to his childhood, the few memories he had of his parents. He remembered the Christmas day when he got his first Comms unit, and that day his father taught him forbidden maneuvers, and especially that day when his mother told him his father disappeared. Suddenly, his thoughts were interrupted by a cell phone ringing. He reached over and looked at the caller ID. Joe Solomon. He answered.
"Hello Joe," he said smoothly.
"It's time," Joe responded. Zach's eyes widened. "Be at Cammie's school in 20 minutes. She needs you."
"I know," Zach said. The line went dead. He knew Joe hung up. He grabbed a pre-packed suitcase and headed for the waiting helicopter.
