Chapter 10 – Out of the Pan and into the Fire
Kaname looked down at the person in bed who was wrapped in a body cast.
Sousuke…did you have to do this?
Why did you and get yourself hurt…
I care about you Sousuke…
You idiot…
Just…
Wake up…
Sousuke walked up behind her with an arm cast.
Sousuke: Uh, Kaname?
Kaname: (Wiping off her tears) Sousuke! (Goes to hug him)
Sousuke: Is everything alright…?
Kaname: It is now! I was so worried about you!
Sousuke: All I got was an arm cast. It should heal up quickly. Now what are you doing in Gauron's room?
Kaname: What!? Gauron's? So that means… (GASP)
Gauron: (Muffled) Haha, wuss.
Kaname kicked Gauron's broken leg.
(LOUD MUFFLED SCREAM)
Kaname: Let's get out of here Sousuke.
Sousuke: After you Kaname.
As they left the room, Gauron screamed as pain pulsed in his leg.
Sousuke: Hey Kaname, do you have anything planned tomorrow?
Kaname: No. Why?
Sousuke: I want to take you to someplace really special.
Kaname: Aw Sousuke, that's so sweet, I'll go with you.
Sousuke: Meet me in front of your house at 7 AM.
Kaname: (Nods) Ok.
Kaname headed home.
Sousuke looked at his arm.
Sousuke: I can't even check the time! My watch is blocked by this stupid cast! (Swings arm recklessly and accidentally hits a rail) AHHHH! AHHHH! AHHHH! HURTING! BADLY! AHHHH!
Voice: (muffled) Haha, wuss.
Sousuke quickly went into the hospital and into Gauron's room.
A gun shot was fired, followed by the loudest, muffled scream.
(…)
The next day! At Sousuke's house…
Ding dong. Ding dong. Ding dong. Diiiiiiiiiiiiing dong.
Kaname: Sousuke? Are you there? Where is he…?
The floor under Kaname opened up, and Kaname plummeted into the darkness.
(…)
Sousuke: Kaname, welcome to Flight 10, now heading to Hawaii. Please buckle up.
Kaname: Sousuke, where ar…
Sousuke: Mrs. Chidori, please buckle your seat beat.
Kaname: (After buckling up) Sousuke, where are we?
Sousuke: In the F/A-18 Hornet, capable of reaching Mach speed. Hang on!
BANG! Out of an underground cove, the jet shot out and headed off into the distance.
Kaname: Sousuke, I'm feeling…nauseous...
Sousuke: Here's a throw-up bag. (Gives Kaname a McDonalds™ bag)
Kaname: Uh…ugh…
Sousuke: This baby flies smoothly. Look outside. The beautiful horizon, so far away.
Kaname: Going…to… (Throws up in bag)
Sousuke: You get use to it after a bit. Now, where's my Big Mac™? (Searches for it) Uh-oh. Kaname, is it still in the bag?
Kaname: (Slightly nods) Oops.
Sousuke: (…) Well, I guess I can skip breakfast for a day.
Beep beep beep.
Sousuke: Uh-oh. Incoming missiles, taking evasive action!
Kaname: (Turning green) Oh god.
As Sousuke evaded incoming missiles, Kaname continued to hang on to her seat.
Kaname: (Still throwing up) Oh god, oh god, oh god.
Sousuke: These missiles won't give up! Hang on!
Sousuke made a plunging dive toward the ground.
Kaname: SOUSUKE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!
Sousuke: Put this on and pull when you start falling. (Hands Kaname parachute)
Kaname: Wait, what's this for?
Sousuke: Saving your life. (Presses EJECT button)
The two shot out of the helm off into the distance. The airplane is obliterated in a large explosion.
Kaname: AHHHHHHHHHHH!
Sousuke: Kaname, pull the string!
Kaname: (Tries) It's stuck!
Sousuke: Than count to 10 and if you aren't dead by than, try again.
Kaname: 10! (Pulls it) Yes!
Nothing happened to her parachute.
Kaname: NO!
Sousuke grabbed Kaname and hugged her close.
Kaname's face turned red.
Sousuke: Hang on! (Opens parachute)
The parachute opened, and they started to drift in the air.
Sousuke held Kaname close.
When the two drooped below the clouds, the ocean horizon stretched across their sight.
Kaname: It is beautiful, isn't it? Right Sousuke? Sousuke?
Sousuke: (Sleeping) Uh-huh…
Kaname: (Slaps Sousuke) Don't sleep when I'm talking. It's very rude.
Sousuke: Oh, ok. I'm just (yawn) really tired.
Kaname: Sigh. We're going to reach the water soon.
Sousuke: Wait, I brought something with me!
Sousuke pulls out a small starburst.
Sousuke: Watch.
Kaname: Watch you eat?
Sousuke: (Tosses it toward the ocean) Just watch.
At the spot where Sousuke tossed the small candy, a speedboat emerged out of nowhere.
Sousuke: Latest military technology, the Boat-in-a-candy.
Kaname: (Sucking on starburst) Uh…I'm not like…going to die right?
Sousuke: Don't worry, it's edible as long as you don't add water.
Kaname: (Drinking Sousuke's water bottle) (Starts to choke) WHAT!?
Sousuke: Only salt water. Don't worry about it.
Kaname: (Strangling Sousuke) You, are, the, most, idiotic, person, I've, ever, MET!
Sousuke: Losing…Oxygen.
Kaname: Oops! Sorry.
They finally reached the speedboat.
Sousuke: Alright, hang on tight.
Kaname placed her hands around Sousuke's waist.
Kaname: Like this?
Sousuke: That's right. Let's go.
Sousuke and Kaname went for about five minutes.
Boom…
Kaname: Did you feel that?
Sousuke: Feel what?
Kaname: Something pulsating in the water.
Boom…
Sousuke: I feel it.
Kaname: What is it?
Boom…
Boom…
Boom…
Sousuke: Torpedoes.
From the water, a missile launched into the air. It started to arch and was headed straight to the couple.
Kaname: Sousuke…GET US OUT OF HERE!
Sousuke: Affirmative!
(…)
(…)
(…)
BOOM!
The shockwaves sent tidal waves into the air.
Sousuke: Oh wait!
Sousuke pressed a red button on the speedboat.
In the back, the engine turned off and started to move around.
Kaname: Sousuke…what the Beep are you doing!
Sousuke: Just making things easier for us Kaname.
In a split second, a huge flame burst out from behind the speedboat and shot them into the distance.
Far, far away.
Inside the attacking submarine…
Tessa: Is it gone?
Kurz: All clear Captain.
Tessa: Oh good.
Melissa: But Captain, there's radiation in these waters now! A large majority of humpback whales live in this area. The species might go extinct!
Tessa: (…) Does it look like I care?
Melissa: I believe the case of wiping out species is court, pending death.
Tessa: OH FREAK. ALL HANDS TO SAVE THE WHALES!
To be continued…

…We're lost…
Kaname: LOST? WHAT DO YOU MEAN LOST!?
