Bob, Helen and Violet all hid in the cave and took a minute to rest before they had to leave the cave again.
Now it was coming upon dusk and just as she said Aleisha came fluttering back to the cave and quickly changed back to herself.
"Did you find anything?" Bob asked hopeful.
"Well, its not going to be easy, Dooms has quite a few people patrolling the Island, but I found a relatively deserted path, not too far from here.
They sat in the cave for a few more minutes letting Aleisha take a break and wait for it to get completely dark.
As soon as it became dark they gathered themselves together and made up a plan.
"Aleisha, do you think you could turn into a bird again? To watch our backs, and to see where we're going." Helen asked.
"Sure." Replied Aleisha, as she quickly changed back into a bird, and landed on Violet's shoulder, as they all started out of the cave.
Back at the villain's lair…
"Get those brats out here now!" Dooms yelled at Shan. Shan walked out of the room. Dash and Nikki we're sitting in their room trying to figure out how they were going to get out of there, when suddenly Shan slung open the door along with two men carrying guns.
"Come with me now." Shan said. Dash and Nikki slowly made their way out of the room and down the hall after Shan. They soon found themselves back in the room that they were in before. Dash looked up at the screen that had a picture of a plane displayed.
"You'll be happy to know your family is here, Incrediboy. Too bad the won't make it here!" Dooms cackled.
"Mom, dad.. no…" Dash thought in his head as Nikki gave him a worried look. They both knew that they couldn't do anything to help Dash's parents let alone themselves.
"Lock them up in here. I want to be able to keep an eye on them." Dooms said to Shan. Shan pushed them over to a spot in the room, and pushed a button, and a force field came up around them.
"Hey!" Dash said as he ran over and began pounding on the field.
"Pound all you want, IncrediBRAT!" Dooms cackled, as she turned around in her chair and began tinkering with buttons.
"Mom... my feet hurt... I'm tired... I'm hungry... are we there yet?" Violet whined.
"Enough Violet." Helen said as she made her way through the dense forest.
"Aleisha, can you fly ahead of us and see where we are?" Bob asked. With that, Aleisha flew off Violet's shoulder and in the clearing of the tress.
"Let's take a quick break while she goes to look." Helen said. Everyone stopped to take a breather. After just a couple minutes of resting Aleisha fluttered back down and quickly changed back into herself.
"It's not good." Aleisha said. "The lair is straight ahead but there's a lot of men walking around the perimeter." Aleisha stated. They all slowly, and quietly made their way close to Doom's lair.
"Wow, you weren't kidding." Bob stated, as he stared at the fifty men walking the perimeter with guns in tow.
"What are we going to do?" Aleisha asked, slowly losing hope.
"I can do it." Violet said.
"Sweetie, you can't take on all those men." Helen replied.
"I can if they don't see me." Violet said while going invisible.
"Be careful." Bob said.
"I will, I'll catch up with you guys later." Violet said, as she took off to create a distraction. Everyone just watched and waited. They didn't have to wait long though before they heard some commotion.
"I heard something over there…" before he could finish his sentence a rock came flying and hit him in the head. "WHO THREW THAT!" He yelled as he rallied up more men to go investigate. And before they knew it, thirty of the men had gone to investigate.
"We still can't get past all those men unnoticed." Helen said.
"Let me handle that." Aleisha said, as she morphed into a jaguar.
"Whoa." Bob said a little unnerved. Aleisha silently crept up and made a leap and landing in the middle of the guys and let out a big snarl. The men all screamed like little girls and took off running.
"You can come out now." Aleisha said as she morphed back into herself.
"Now that was cool." Bob said to Helen as they met up with Aleisha.
"That was awesome, good job." Bob said to Aleisha.
"Thank you Mr. Parr." Aleisha said feeling proud of herself.
"Guys, get over here!" Helen said as she tinkered with the keypad to open the door. Bob and Aleisha ran up to the door and looked at the keypad.
"Let me handle this." Bob said as he punched the keypad, making the door open. They all ran inside as the door shut and made their way down the hall.
"Mom, dad." A voice said behind them. Everyone turned around just as Violet became visible.
"Oh hunny, I'm glad you're ok." Helen said giving her a hug.
"Good work, Vi." Bob said proudly.
"Thanks." Violet said, as they continued their way down the hall.
"Where do you think they are?" Asked Aleisha.
"I don't know." Bob replied as they searched around.
Will they ever find Dash and Nikki?
