Early the next morning Mackey was making breakfast Terry was taking care of Nene. Mike was still not back from his date yet. Kenny was looking for a suitable place to make the new swords. Syila sand Nigel were sleeping and Josh was in the pit practicing his karate. Mackey was just setting the table when the phone started to ring.
'Now who could be calling this early?' He asked himself reaching for the phone. "Hello Silky Doll this is Mackey Stingray." He said picking up the phone.
"Hey Mackey its Priss." Priss said.
"Oh hey Priss its good to hear from you are you having fun?" Mackey asked.
"Yea we are having the time of our life's." Priss said. "How are things on your end?"
"Umm let me go get Syila one sec." Mackey said and put her on hold and walked out of the kitchen through the living room and into the hallway. "Sis hey sis." Mackey said rapping on the door.
"What?" Syila's voice came sleepily from behind the door.
"Priss is on the phone." Mackey said.
"Priss is? Ok I got it thanks." Syila said reaching for the phone. "Hey Priss what's up." Syila said picking up the phone.
"Hey Syila I was just calling to say hi and to see how things are going." Priss said.
"Well we have been having a little Boomer problem the past few days." Syila said looking at her bandage seeing if it needed to be changed.
"A Boomer problem how big a problem is it I mean its nothing the three of you can't handle is it?" Priss asked.
"Well actually in the first engagement the Boomer threw a pipe a Linna but I pushed her out of the way in time but I couldn't move in time and the pipe impaled me through the stomach." Syila said.
Priss felt the blood run from her face. "Are you ok?" She finally asked.
"Yea I'll be fine but I am out of action for a while." Syila said.
"Damn do you have any more good news for me?" Priss asked.
"Oh yea lots more." Syila said. "We have hade 54 Boomers go rouge sense you left and the ADP has lost to many men and they have closed down."
"So its up to Linna and Nene now." Priss said.
"I'm getting to that." Syila said. "Last night 5 Boomers were tearing up the harbor and Linna and Nene went to stop them but they couldn't even dent them. One of the Boomers threw Nene into a wall and smashed Linna in the ribs with a pipe. And right when it was about to finish her a man in combat armor stepped in and rescued her. Then he was joined by 3 others and the quickly destroyed the Boomers."
"Well how is Linna and Nene?" Priss asked.
"Nene had been crushed from the waist down but fortunately one of the people was a medic and they got her back here where Dr. Springer preformed surgery with the help of the medic Terry to repair some internal bleeding. And Linna got some broken ribs." Syila said.
"Where are these people now do you know?" Priss asked.
"Well last I heard Terry was with Nene. Mike was still out on a date with a girl he met, Kenny was out looking for a place to make some new weapons and their leader Josh was still sleeping but what he is doing now I don't know. Why?" Syila asked.
"You let them stay there are you crazy or just stupid you don't know a thing about them what if they are spies?" Priss asked.
"Trust me they are not." Syila said.
"You don't know that." Priss said. "Do you even know where they came from?"
"They came from the United States after they got a call from the CEO of the STAR Corporation and heard what was happening." Syila said.
"And you believed that what the hell were you thinking?" Priss yelled.
"Priss its ok don't worry its ok." Syila said.
"Ok my ass we are on our way back." Priss yelled and hung up.
"Priss PRISS." Syila yelled.
"What's wrong?" Nigel asked rolling over.
"Priss is on her way back and she is pissed." Syila said.
Priss and Leon's hotel room.
"Hey Priss what was all the yelling about?" Leon asked walking in the room.
"We have to go back to Tokyo there have been 54 rouge boomers and Syila and Nene are badly hurt and Syila is letting some people stay there that might me spies." Priss said throwing her suitcase on the bed.
"54 rouge Boomers?!" Leon said in surprise. "Ok lets go well take the first flight back."
They packed their bags and were out the door in 20 minutes and at the airport 10 minutes later.
When is the next flight heading for Tokyo leaving?" Leon asked walking up to the ticket counter.
"We have a plain leaving in 1 hour." The man said looking at his computer.
"We'll take 2 seats any will do." Priss said.
"Ok 2 seats here are your tickets its at gate 34." The man said pointing in the direction of the gate.
"Thank you." Leon said running to towards the gate.
Linna's apartment
Linna's alarm went off and she threw it across the room.
"I don't want to get up." She groaned and rolled over and started to go back to sleep. "Oh shit I fell back asleep." She said rolling out of bed and reaching for her clock. "7:35 only 5 minutes that's good."
She took a shower and changed into her business suit and made breakfast. She was just heading for the door when the phone rang.
"Hello." Linna said.
"Linna its Syila Priss called and she is on her way back and she is pissed." She said.
"Oh great what's she pissed about now?" Linna asked.
"She thinks Josh and his team are spies." Syila said.
"Did you tell her they are not." Linna said looking for her keys.
"Yes but she didn't believe me." Syila said.
"Ok well we have about 20 hours until she gets here I have to get to work if I ever find my keys. Then I'll come over." Linna said.
"Ok I'll see you after work." Syila said.
"Ok tell Josh and the others I said hi." Linna said.
"Ok I will bye Linna." Syila said.
Syila hung up and Linna continued her quest for her missing keys.
'Lets see I came in and I thought I put them on my dresser but there not there.' She thought as she looked at her dresser. 'Oh here they are.' She thought reaching into her trashcan and pulling out her keys. 'Ok lets go.'
She arrived at work with only a few minutes to spare and got to her desk.
"And Linna Yamazaki makes it to work with only a few minutes to go." Nesay said holding her fist to her mouth like she was a sports announcer.
"Oh shut up." Linna said sitting down.
"Why so late to day?" Nesay asked.
"Oh I lost my keys." Linna said.
Silky Doll
Josh and Terry had just finished breakfast when Mike came stumbling through the door.
"Well look what the cat drug in." Terry said.
"Its about time man what you to go back to her place?" Josh asked.
"Oh yea." Mike said.
Heavy under fire
"Sounds like you hade fun." Kenny said.
"I don't remember if I did or not." Mike said reaching for the coffee pot.
Linna's work
Linna was sitting at her desk typing out a weakly sails report and Nesay was getting them some coffee when a rumble shook the building.
"What was that?" Nesay asked running back to her desk."
"I think it was an earthquake." Linna said picking up some papers.
"Attention all personal there are 2 rouge Boomers attacking the building." A woman's voice said over the PA system.
"A rouge Boomer?! What are we gonna do Linna?" Nesay asked in a panic.
"First we are gonna get out of here then we are gonna run for our life's." Linna said and they ran for the stairway.
"Is this the only way down?" Nesay asked.
"Unless you want to take the elevator and with a rouge boomer in the building you are a sitting duck in there." Linna said. "At least if you're on the stairs you have a chance. Linna said.
Silky Doll
"Hey Mike I hope you got some rest because there are 4 rouge boomers." Mackey said running into the kitchen.
"Oh man and I was hoping to take a shower and go to sleep for the rest of my life." Mike said setting his coffee mug down.
"Its ok Mike you stay here we can take care of them." Josh said standing up. "Mackey where are they at?"
"2 are heading for the STAR building and 2 are attacking Linna's work." Mackey said.
"Well then we don't have time to waist lets get moving." Josh said and ran into the pit.
Josh Terry and Kenny suited up and prepared to leave.
By the way how are we gonna get out of here its not like we can just use the front door?" Josh asked.
"We are gonna launch you like a bullet out of a gun." Mackey said. "Its how the others get around. Just make sure when you hit a roof top to jump as soon as you touch down."
"Copy that. You two understand?" Josh asked.
"10-4." Kenny and Terry said.
"Ok lets go Terry you and Kenny take care of the Boomers heading for the STAR building I'll handle the ones at Linna's work." Josh said and stepped into the launcher.
"Ok I've set the location of Linna's work in to the launcher so Josh you will launch first then I'll reprogram it for the STAR building." Mackey said.
"Ok I'm ready." Josh said and Mackey hit the launch button.
Josh was fired from the launcher high into the air and came down on the roof of a building ½ a mile away and he jumped off it as soon as he hit it.
"Wow this is fun." He said to him self.
"Ok Terry Kenny your turn." Mackey said.
"Lets do it." Kenny said and stepped into the launcher followed by Terry.
"Ok here we go be safe out there." Mackey said and hit the button.
Linna's work stairway
"Lets go we are almost at the bottom." Linna said.
"Good my legs are killing me." Nesay said.
"Mine too." Linna replied. "Oh shit stop it's a boomer we'll have to go to the roof and hide till help arrives."
"Oh man that's 30 floors up." Nesay said.
"Well you can keep going and ask the Boomer if it will let you past." Linna said passing her on the stairs.
"I don't think so." Nesay said turning around.
The Boomer was heading up the stairs when it saw Linna and Nesay running up the stairs. It let out a roar and started to follow them up the stairs.
"Oh great it saw us lets go." Linna said.
They reached the top and hid behind a small shack on the roof. Linna picked up a steel rod and was ready to defend them. The Boomer emerged from the star case and started looking for the two women it saw running up the stairs.
"Its looking for us." Linna said.
"What are we gonna do." Nesay asked.
"Stay low help is on its way." Linna said.
The boomer was smashing everything in its way looking for them.
"At least its only one of them." Nesay said.
As soon as she said that the other Boomer came out of the stairway and smashed the door to it.
"You had to say it." Linna said looking at Nesay
"Sorry." Linna shrugged.
Once the Boomers had destroyed all the things in their way there was nothing between them and Linna and Nesay except the shack.
"Oh shit they got up." Nesay said shacking.
"Nesay stay here don't move no matter what." Linna said.
"What are you gonna do?" Nesay asked.
"Hey you damn Boomers over here." Linna yelled stepping out from behind the shack.
The Boomers turned their attention from the shack to the woman with the pipe in her hands. One of the Boomers rushed Linna and she rolled out of the way just in time and the Boomer rushed past her.
'Come on Josh get here fast.' Linna said to her self.
The other Boomer came up behind her and grabbed her by the arms and picked her up and started to squeeze.
"AARRGG." She screamed as her elbow pressed into her ribs.
"Let her go you son-of-a-bitch." Josh yelled as his sword came down on the Boomers arms.
The Boomers arms fell to the ground and Linna fell on top of them her arm digging into her ribs. Josh quickly sliced the boomer on the chest the force threw it to the ground. Josh walked up to the Boomer and put his foot into the gash on the Boomers chest and crushed its core with his foot.
"Behind you." Nesay yelled as the other Boomer came full force up behind him. Josh tried to turn around but the Boomer was to close and hit him like a bus sending him flying into a pile of rubble left from the Boomers dropping his sword.
"Oh now your gonna get it." He said standing up.
The Boomer started to run at him and he started running at it they meet in the middle of the roof with a loud crash. Josh rolled on top of the Boomer and started punching it in the face and head over and over until there was no resemblance of a face. After that bombardment he picked it up and body slammed it into the roof. As the Boomer lay on the ground Josh walked over and picked up his sword and walked back over to the Boomer.
"That was a good fight but now its over." He said and slammed his sword into the Boomers chest and through its core. "Are you two ok?" He asked sheathing his sword.
"Yea we're fine Linna said getting back to her feet.
"Looks like you two are gonna need a lift down to the ground." Josh said looking at the destroyed stairway.
"Yea but how are you gonna do that?" Nesay asked walking up beside Linna.
"I'll carry you down one at a time no problem." Josh said. "Who wants to be first?"
Linna pushed Nesay forward and Josh scooped her up in his arms.
"No wait why me?" She asked.
"You'll be fine just hold on tight." Josh said. "Because you are on an express elevator to Hell going down." He said did a back flip off the roof.
Nesay screamed all the way down but was surprised at how gentle the landing was.
"Thank you." She said once her feet were on solid ground again.
"Your welcome." Josh said and jumped back up on to the roof and took off his helmet.
"You ok?" He asked Linna.
"It gave my ribs quite a squeeze but I'll be fine thank to you." She said. "That's twice now that you have saved me."
"Yea I know that's gonna cost you a 6 pack." Josh laughed.
"Well how about this instead." Linna said and wrapped her arms around him and kissed him on the lips.
After she pulled away Josh just looked at her blankly for a moment.
"O-o-ok that will work." Josh squeaked.
"Humm I thought so." Linna said with her arms still around him. "And that was just to pay for the first one this one is for saving me and Nesay." Linna said and kissed him again.
They held the kiss for about 20 seconds then Linna finally pulled away.
"So do I get a ride down to?" She asked smiling at him.
"Well unless you can fly I guess I can." Josh said putting his helmet back on and picking Linna up.
"I'm gonna call it a day so I'll see you back at Syila's." Linna said.
"Ok I'm gonna go see if Terry and Kenny need any help they are at the STAR building there is 2 Boomers over there as well." Josh said and walked up to the ledge of the roof.
"What no flip for me?" Linna asked.
"Nope." Josh said and fell head first off the building.
"Wooooooohooooo." Linna screamed as they plummeted at the ground headfirst. Josh waited for the last second to roll upright and landed softly on the ground.
He gave Linna and Nesay a wave and was off.
"What took so long up there?" Nesay asked.
"What? Oh he was making sure I was ok." Linna said watching him jump from rooftop to rooftop.
"Yea right." Nesay said. "By the way your lip stick is smeared."
"What?" Linna asked putting her hand to her lips.
"Ha I thought so." Nesay said. "So tell me is he quite?"
Linna smiled at her and shock her head yes.
