Gothic: Well, despite the fact that my fingers should be resting, I am determined to write and update for you. I may be slower getting through later chapters but it shouldn't take me more than a week to get used to it. Lets hope Gothic survives!! Oh, and as usual: -
{thinking} "talking" And WF is my abbreviation of 'Wildforce', as in the Wildforce Rangers.
Kitty: Well you should know me by now. I hope you are reviewing and making life in the cyber world easier for me. I'll be helping Gothic thought this, and hopefully her spelling when she types will get better. Now onto the story, and as usual, Gothic doesn't own anything, so don't sue her.

Jen wandered for hours before coming to a decent place to spend the night. Evening was settling in, and she didn't want to be noticed too easily. She was unaware of the eyes following her, as she took to another alleyway.
Back at the Timeforce HQ, the poachers who had been caught, and admitted that they hadn't realised the officers with Jen were there, were locked up for the night. They had also admitted that the birds had just happened to be flying overhead at the time, and they were waiting there for the right moment to shoot. Meanwhile, the main case was the escape of Jen. The officers who had allowed her escape were relieved from their duties, and had been let home early. A lot of top officers, including Alex were on the case, with Katie and the others trying to help. They had been blamed for the escape, and despite trying to claim their innocence, they had also been relieved from their duties, and let free too. They had one remaining job to do: to report any information on Jen's whereabouts to the Timeforce. After several minutes of complaining, they agreed to the terms. As they set off, they moaned and complained amongst themselves:
"It's unfair! We had nothing to do with Jen's escape! She got out of there by her own free will. We shouldn't have to be responsible for that." Trip willingly started off the grand debate for the evening.
"And Alex would have to go off to the deep end wouldn't he? Typical." Katie was the next to put in a 'comment.'
"But it does seem awfully suspicious though. The others show up, they want to see Jen, and then Jen escapes. I reckon those poachers were planted there deliberately." Lucas, serious as ever, stated the most obvious fact of the conversation. They were walking towards their motorcycles as they spoke.
"Well, I have to say, I agree with Lucas," Katie, siding with Lucas, defended the serious leader. " I mean, if you look at it in enough depth, there's obviously been something that's been set up in this case."
Lucas had been the leader ever since Jen had been locked up. He had always respected Jens good quality leadership skills in the group, and when their main strength in the group was gone, they had needed someone to be strong enough to take her place. Lucas had naturally filled the spot. Now he stayed silent, and prayed that there had been no set up in the escape.
There was a meeting that night in Trips apartment. They had been discussing the main theme at the moment, and then went onto interrogation. They questioned the others over whether anything had been set up by them, and tried to get answers out of the constant 'no's. When the phone rang, everyone was slightly put out of it by the ringing. Trip got up as fast as he could, and dashed for the monitor on the nearby table. Pressing the right buttons, he quickly brought up an image of their new Captain:
"There has been a sighting. You are to go and investigate, for it is rumoured that she may communicate better with you. If you can capture her, then go for it. You have permission to restrain her if necessary, although things may not get as bad as that."
They all stared at that, amazed that such violence could occur because of this. But still, they determinedly set out.
~~~~~~~~~~
Deciding that the WF Rangers would probably fare better against Jen, just in case she did try to attack them, they posted them around the area where Jen had been sighted. Jen had actually been sighted around a building area, and by the time the Rangers got there, she had made her way to the roof. All 11 rangers made their way to the rooftop as silently as possible. The WF rangers determinedly took up the challenge, forming a neat circle around her, invisible in the darkness. It seemed impossible that Jen could of heard them, but apparently she did, for Jen whirled around in the night air the second they were all in position.
{What are they doing here? I know they're there, I can sense it. They're not gonna lock me back up again.}
Gathering that the jig was up, the WF Rangers, Wes and Eric moved out and attempted to get closer to Jen. She darted out of the way, and rushed for the nearest exit. Taylor moved in to block her way, shoving her back, trying not to hurt her. Jen stumbled back, and was pounced upon, by Max and Danny. They clamped down on her surprisingly sharp nails, her limbs thrashing out all the while. Jen fought like a little wildcat, slashing with good skill, but leaving some bleeding wounds on Max and Danny. They eventually staggered back, wounds bleeding badly, blood running in rivets down their bodies. Jen moved in for the kill, pulling Max up, drawing a sharp fingernail across his cheek. She flung him away from her, and he hit Cole, who had been advancing on the little cat fight going on.
"Come on guys! She's too strong! Lets go!" Merrick shouted out a plea from his corner, and dashed for the only exit himself. He was stopped by Jen, who flipped herself over to the exit, and blocked his path completely.
{He's not going anywhere yet…}
Merrick was wounded badly by Jens slashes to his body. A deepish gash in his stomach was pouring out blood, and Merrick fell to the ground. Cole pushed his way out from underneath Max, and watched as Jen pushed Taylor out of the way, forcing her back into the shadows where the other three Timeforce rangers were. Max and Danny, were both too badly hurt to continue in the fight, and Cole rushed to Merrick, or rather in his direction. He never reached Merrick, Jen was there in two spilt seconds, and backhanded him away. The nearest three rangers to Jen, Cole Wes and Eric, as Merrick was unconscious, heard a rather strange noise then. A sort of hissing sound, the sort a cat might make if frightened and trying to defend itself, came from Jen. The 'hissing' knocked everyone's concentration for a split second. The second was enough time for Jen, as she lunged at Cole, and pushed him roughly backwards. Her nails dug into Cole's shoulders, hurting him, and he was an easy target to defeat. Cole tumbled over Merrick, she had pushed him that far back, and despite his own injuries, Cole desperately tried to rouse his friend.
Wes, Eric and Alyssa were the only rangers left now. They surrounded Jen in a tight knit circle, and her eyes flicked from one of them to another. Alyssa was the first to rush in. A glimmer shone in Jens eyes, and she ducked down, darting forward and tripping up Alyssa. She fell heavily behind Jen, as Eric and Wes went in together. Wes was shoved backwards, his shirt ripped in the process. Eric saw a good chance. He waited a few seconds, making sure Jen was still focused on Wes. When she was right behind him, Eric locked contact with Wes, and he knew what Eric was going to do. Then, Eric sprang forward, and put all his weight behind Jen. As he caught her off guard, Jen fell forward, - right into Wes. It only took Jen two seconds to recover, but Wes had Jen as tightly as he could in his grip. She struggled, and thrashed about, but Wes held on, trying to contain her. In all of this, the two had moved closer and closer to a skylight. When Jen struck out again, Wes lost his balance, and toppled to the floor, right next to the skylight. Wes accidentally pulled Jen down with him, and as she fell, her head hit the skylight. The hit to the head was enough, and Jen collapsed in Wes arms, woozy and practically unconscious.
Sensing that there was no more danger from her, Wes managed to pull himself up, and inspect the wounds on both of them. She had a bump on her head, and he was covered in scratches. The other three crept out of the shadows, Katie tending to Taylor's wounds. Wes merely looked at the now unconscious Jen, sleeping in his arms. Little did they know the truth about the violent attack Jen had launched upon them….

Gothic: Well? Was my fight good enough? Again, I tried to dedicate a section to the fight, and (think I). I did explain why the poachers were there, even though there's still a bit of a mystery behind them. There was actually a clue in this chapter that reveals part of the main plot. Lets see if you can work it out!!
