Sorry took so long for the update; I've had some minor life issues. Thanks for everyone's reviews. Once again thanks to my beta Wolf.

Revenge part 2
Falcon began to utter a word in Lady Jaye's direction when he could see her fading away. Looking at his hands, it appeared the same was happening to him.
The sudden attackers disappeared as quickly as they came. The Joes started cleaning up the minor mess. Flint was looking for Lady Jaye and he couldn't find her anywhere. The unknown force that had attacked them didn't seem to have any connection with Cobra. Flint went to the security office and found it locked with Falcon's security code. Flint entered his over-ride code, no one was in there. Flint spotted Scarlett walking by the Security Office while he poked around the empty room. Upon catching her, he found out she was on her way back to the barracks where she shared an apartment with Lady Jaye.
"Hey, Scarlett, have you seen Lady Jaye," he asked, slightly concerned.
"No, I thought she would be with you," Scarlett responded. "Incidentally, I don't recall seeing her during the battle. I also don't remember seeing Falcon. You don't think something's happened to them, do you?" Scarlett asked Flint as the weight of her question struck both of them.
"I hope not. I'll kill that little bastard if anything has happened to Jaye," Flint promised.
"We don't know anything for sure. I'll go check with Doc and make sure that neither of them turned up in medical," Scarlett replied.
After a brief search of the barracks and working spaces, the Joes discovered neither Falcon nor Lady Jaye were still on base. The security cameras had detected the two missing soldiers leaving Headquarters when they were surrounded by a flash of bright light and a cloud of smoke that obscured the camera's view. When the smoke cleared, they were gone without a trace. After observing the security camera replay, Flint was visibly livid.
"We have to find out who attacked us and why they captured Lady Jaye and Falcon. Then we can better assess what's going on," Scarlett stated after Flint had viewed the video for the third time.
Meanwhile in some undisclosed location:
Falcon slowly opened his eyes and blinked a couple of times. The light was very dim. Falcon could tell he wasn't at the base. He was lying on a cold stone floor. His head felt like it was going to exploded. It felt worse than any hangover he'd ever had. Falcon slowly rolled over onto his left side trying to clear his head. He could see another person beside him and it took him a moment to realize that it was Lady Jaye and she was beginning to stir herself awake
"Falcon? Where are we?" Lady Jaye asked, surprised to see Falcon lying so close
"I'm not sure where we are; just woke up myself," Falcon paused as he started looking around the room again. "Do you remember what happened?"
"I remember seeing a blinding light and then I was knocked out," Lady Jaye answered. "But I'm not sure by what."
"Yeah that's what I remember too," Falcon said thoughtfully. "I don't think Cobra attacked us, but I'm not sure who else could have done it. My best guess
is a flash-bang grenade and some stun gas is what they used to put us out."
Before either of them could say anything more, they could hear footsteps coming down the hall towards them.
