Why Not (Part 2)

"BEN! EMILY!" Dakota yelled as he ran after the group of droids that had Emily and Ben.

"STOP!" Dakota yelled as he jumped right over the droids. He fell down right in front of them and they all laughed.

"We should take him too." One of the droids said.

"Oh no you won't!" Dakota yelled as he pulled out his gun, but before he could shoot the droids they already pushed him on the ship. The droids carried them down the hall to the prison room. It was all dark and red everywhere in the ship. When they got to the prison room the droids locked up Ben and Emily, but kept Dakota in their arms.

"What should we do with this one?" A droid asked holding Dakota up.

"Take him to gold leader." Another droid replied putting Ben on the wall. The droid carried Dakota down the hall again to the control room. When they got there they walked to the center to a droid with a yellow strip down the middle of its head. The control room was a large red room with controls on the outside walls. The Droid leader turned around and noticed Dakota.

"What's this?" The droid leader said angrily.

"A rebel trying to ruin our plans." The Droid replied.

"I see… and what's your name twiggy?" The Droid leader asked.

"No one calls me twiggy!" Dakota yelled angrily as he spat in the droid leader face and then, doing a back flip, kicked the droid leader, taking its head off. Dakota got loose from the grasp of the two droids carrying him and ran to the door

"Get him!" A droid yelled from the back of the room as two droids blocked the door. Dakota quickly pulled out his gun and shot one of the droids blocking the door as he kicked the other one to the door. With the amount of pressure Dakota used he made the droid's head shatter. Dakota turned around and started shooting at the other droids that were getting up and going to attack him.

"Damn I need to get out of here!" Dakota thought as he pulled out a grenade and threw it over the droids' heads. It landed right in a little hole by the main controls.

Ha! What is that going to d-?" The droid said mouthing off but before it finished the grenade blew up and all the controls and droids were destroyed. Dakota hurried out the door but the explosion still reached him and pushed him into a wall knocking him out.

Meanwhile in the prison room…

"I guess Dakota wasn't crazy about this whole war. I should have said yes." Ben sighed.

"It's not your fault Ben." Emily replied trying to cheer Ben up. Just then, there was a low rumbling sound that came from above and the two were throw around but, still hooked to the wall by chains that were locked onto their hands.

"Ow. What the hell was that?" Ben asked Emily as she tried to stand.

"I don't know, but does it feel like we're going down?" She asked.

Yes…it does!" Ben said terrified. The ship was losing altitude fast and it started to tilt down with the prison room facing the ground.
