The Letter: Part 5
As the car slowly began to decline the hill Gene struggled with the chains to save himself but nothing was working.
"Shit! Nothing is working. I gotta get out of here. I can't leave Melfina alone with that creep. Oh shit!" Gene screamed as the car flipped and rolled down the hill.
It tumbled and tumbled until it hit a tree at the base of the hill. There was silence at first. Then, Gene began to move and shook his head.
"Ah man that hurt like a bitch. I think I broke a rib. Now how am I supposed to get out of this mess?" Gene asked himself as he tried to free himself of the chains once again.
With a stroke of luck, the chains broke apart and Gene was finally free. Gene tried to move out of the broken back window but his side ached too much.
"Ah man, I can't even move. How am I supposed to get out of this damn car?" Gene asked himself once again.
Thoughts of Melfina began to fill his head. He thought of walking with her through the park and holding her hand. Then suddenly a ghostly figure appeared before him. It was a woman. She was tall and thin with long blue hair.
She stood before him and said, "Gene, I have come here to help heal your wounds so you can fight the evil forces that have come to steal the Maiden of the Leyline."
He looked at her in amazement and said, "How did you find me?"
She looked at him and said, "That's not important, I must help you before it's too late."
Slowly she pried the doors open of the vehicle and carried Gene outside and laid him on the ground.
"Now this might sting a little bit, but I guarantee that you will be fine shortly afterwards" said the ghostly figure.
With that she took off Gene's shirt and waved her hands over his body.
'Hey this is kinda kinky' thought Gene.
Suddenly pain started to shoot up and down his body. But a few short moments later the pain resided and Gene was able to sit up.
"Thanks, now I can beat the shit out of Harry" Gene said as he started to get up off the ground.
"Not so fast, I must warn you, Harry is much more powerful now with his hidden talents. Caster shells will not defeat him now. You must find a way to outsmart him and bring him to his untimely death. That is the only way you will be able to stop him. Good luck Gene Starwind and may the force be with you" said the figure as she disappeared into the air.
'What is this, Star Wars?" Gene asked himself as he looked around.
"Now what" Gene said to himself.
Realizing that there weren't any cars driving by, he decided to walk to the nearest home or town. He looked to his left where he found a dusty road sign. He swept off the dust and a town called "Exzavior" was printed on its side.
He dropped the sign and said, "I guess it's this way."
With that, Gene started to walk towards the town.

"Yes! Melfina will be all mine and that damn Gene Starwind won't be able to stop me. This is the best day of my life. Now I just have to get out of here" Harry said to himself.
After walking a few moments a small car pulled up to Harry's side and a door opened, allowing him to step inside.
"What took you so long?" Harry asked.
"Sorry sir. I'll take you to the ship right away" said the driver.
Slowly the car pulled out into the car and they sped off to the ship.
* * * * * (back to Gene) * * * * *
After walking for about half an hour Gene stopped and sat on the side of the road.
"Man, I'm out of shape" said Gene.
He sat there for a bit just looking around and thinking of Melfina. He couldn't get her out of his mind. He missed her dearly and just wanted to be in her arms. That's where he felt safe. That's all he ever wanted was to feel safe. Now he was stuck in this horrible situation that seemed endless and had no where to go.
"Where the hell is this town anyway?" Gene asked himself.
"Look up and I'll tell you" said a mysterious voice.
Gene looked up and said, "And you are?"
"Hello are you that brain dead? It's me Jim!! What happened to you?" yelled Jim.
"It's a long story, but how did you find me?" asked Gene.
"Well I kinda left my science project in your bag and I used Gillium to help track it down. He used a bunch of scanners and crap and well I found you instead. I guess his scanners are broken or something because I don't think you're my science project" Jim said.
"Wait, what does your science project look like?" Gene asked.
Jim looked at him ad said, "Well it looks like a pen but it is actually a little device that acts as a magnet."
"Is this it?" Gene asked as he pulled out a small bizarre looking pen.
"Yea! How did you wind up with it?" asked Jim.
"Well I needed it to umm, write something down, but you found me and that's all that matters. Now where is there civilization?" Gene asked.
Jim looked at him grinning and said, "Well I have my car parked right behind that big rock. What's the matter?"
Gene looked at Jim and grabbed his shoulder firmly, "Jim we really have to get back to Melfina. If I don't get to her in time Harry will capture her and we will never see her again. You just have to trust me on this. We have to hurry home. Please, let's just go home."
"Melfina's in trouble? Common lets go!" Jim yelled as they ran to the car.
