Thanks for the reviews.
American-Kitty: I have a question for you. Would you allow me to use your character in my revised version of The Day the Sky went Black? Mostly it's because I need a girlfriend for Odd. Also it's because you've been my most loyal reviewer so far, so I wanted to do something to pay you back. It's ok if you don't want me to.
Fire in the Hole
Todd and Reika got out of CR82 and ran to the beat up Escalade.
"JEREMY! AELITA!" they both yelled.
"CR82 can you sense anything?" asked Todd.
"Yes my scanner shows that they are still alive but need to be rushed to a hospital immediately," said CR82.
"But how do we get them out?" asked Todd.
"Hold on," said CR82.
CR82 started up the hover jets and positioned him self over the Escalade. A clamp came out of the bottom of the car and attached itself to the mangled roof of the truck. With one quick motion the roof was lifted off the truck and they could see inside. Jeremy was lying over on the passenger side and Aelita was on the ground. CR82 immediately dialed 911. In a few minutes the paramedics and police officers arrived at the scene. Todd called the others and told them to meet him at the local hospital.
"Ok what happened and where are they," said Yumi as soon as she saw Todd.
"They are in the ER right now. The doctors say that they both may not make it over night," said Todd.
"What the hell happened?" asked Odd.
"Well we got to the factory only to be greeted by our friends the Phantoms. Then they chased us through some of the town until X.A.N.A. arrived with is big black truck. He then ran them over," said Todd.
"And where were you?" asked Ulrich.
"Underneath what was left of the trailer after we blew it off," said Todd.
"This X.A.N.A. guy doesn't like to loose," said Reika.
"Tell us about it," said Yumi.
"So what do we do now?" asked Odd.
"Wait and see," said Todd.
They waited all-day and even late into the night. Eventually Jeremy and Aelita were moved into regular rooms.
"Can we see them?" Yumi asked a doctor.
"In about an hour you guys can go in," said the doctor.
One hour later they were finally able to go in and see the two. Of course they only had a half an hour before visiting hours were over.
"Jeremy, you awake?" asked Odd as he poked Jeremy.
"Odd leave him alone," said Yumi.
Jeremy's eyes fluttered and he woke up.
"Jeremy you're awake. We were so worried," said Yumi.
Jeremy just smiled.
"Einstein what happened out there?" asked Odd.
"We got ambushed," said Jeremy.
Then the heard screams from out side the room. A doctor flew past their door leaving a trail of blood on the floor. The gang ran outside and saw a gruesome sight. There were two Phantoms in the waiting room killing people. Blood was all over the room along with body parts. A head landed right in front of Odd. Odd yelped and grabbed onto Ulrich. Ulrich shoved him away. Then a Phantom turned around and saw them.
"Ok I think its time to go into the room now," said Yumi.
"Yeah lets do that right now," said Ulrich.
They ran into the room and shut the door.
"Ok what can we use for weapons?" asked Odd.
"I have no clue," said Ulrich.
Todd pulls out his pistol to find it empty.
"I should have brought an extra clip," said Todd.
"Well nobody is perfect," said Naomi.
Then the door gets bashed in and the Phantom floats into the room. Naomi and Reika got behind the rest of them.
"What do you want?" asked Yumi.
"To Kill," said the Phantom.
The Phantom brings out a knife and lunges at them. They scatter and the Phantom grabs Ulrich.
"Good bye," said the Phantom.
The Phantom tries to stab Ulrich but Todd whacks it in the head with a standing coat rack. The Phantom thrust the knife at Ulrich; it misses and gets him in the arm. The Phantom drops Ulrich and then fell to the floor. Todd kept hitting the Phantom until he smashed its head and blood filled the floor. Reika had to grab Todd to make him stop.
"Todd, Todd, its ok the Phantom is dead now," said Reika.
Todd looked at her and tears filled his eyes. Reika held him close as he cried into her shoulder. Then the second Phantom came into the room. Blood was dripping from its hands. It holds up a black box with a red button on it.
"Fire in the Hole," said the Phantom as he pressed the button and vanished.
Outside explosions ripped through the parking lot as cars exploded one after the other like dominos.
"Oh shit, this can't be good," said Odd.
"Yeah and that doesn't look any better," said Yumi as she pointed to the oil tanker that sat right below them.
"Why is there a oil tanker in a hospital parking lot?" asked Odd.
"Use your brain genius. When the explosions hit the tankers we will all die," said Yumi.
"Then we need to get out of here," said Odd.
"And how do you suggest we do that with Jeremy and Aelita in beds," said Ulrich.
Yumi and Odd watched the explosions get closer and closer to the tanker.
"NO! NOT MY CAR!" yelled Odd.
The explosions were coming closer and closer to Odd's car and the tankers. Only one thing stood in the way of Odd's cars death and the gangs. CR82 was parked right next to Odd's car. As the explosions neared the Delorean CR82 dropped his suspension and sat on the bomb. Then there was a clunk. Smoked pored out from under CR82.
So CR82 Stopped the explosions but did the Phantom leave?
Review to find out.
