Brick's Blues and Looking for the Cave

Late in the evening, Brick is thinking about Monique and all the good times they had. He then shrugs and decides to give her a call. He dials her number and listens to the phone ring. He then hears her answering machine pick up.

"Hi, this is Monique. Sorry I'm not in right now, but I'll give you a call back as soon as I can. So leave a message and your number. Bye." When the tone sounds, Brick sighs and starts his message.

"Monique, I'm in the Marine Corps and learning to be a sniper. I know it sounds scary, but don't worry. It won't be after you, but the villains we fight all the time. I wish I didn't send you that tape. Too late I guess. I'll try calling again this weekend. Bye."

He then hangs up the phone and returns to his rack. As he nods off, he thinks about the day they broke up and the tears in her eyes. As sleep claims him, he vows that her tears will never fall in front of him again. She will be happy with her life, no matter what.

On the outskirts of Go City, Ron, Bonnie and Hirotaka are discussing the situation when Kim arrives on Sand Hawk. Kim had been briefed by Norman as to the situation and drove flat out along the roadway until reaching their position. She recalls the harried pace she had to adopt preparing Sand Hawk for transport along the highway. She is even more thankful for the turbo-charged engine on the dune buggy, despite the armor-plating on there.

Ron then briefs her on the situation. "Basically, Fiske started following me after I left the air field. I increased my speed and lost sight of him. I just hope he didn't go back to the air field. How're your folks, by the way?"

Kim smiles and replies, "They've had their memories wiped and Norman is taking them home. I feel really bad though. I'm sure they could have contributed quite a bit to the project." Ron and the others nod in agreement and then proceed to start locating the cave.

Bonnie has an idea that rocks their world. "Let's each take a different direction and try to find them that way. May not be much of a plan, but at least one of us has a good chance of finding them."

Ron grins and says, "Your first tactical plan, Bon-Bon. Go on and plan the assault as well."

Bonnie smiles and ponders the scenarios. She then picks the best possible one. "When we're all together at the same site, we hit and hit hard. Heavy artillery fire from above to sedate the lackeys, particle-beam blasts from inside the cave, provided it's not too heavily confined. Ground and suppressive fire for the air-evac should it be necessary."

Kim, impressed, says, "Sounds doable. Crazy but doable. Do you need to rest or anything like that? After all, planning your first tactical assault is said to be a painful thing. Same thing with your first joke, especially if you're not used to it." Bonnie blushes and starts laughing with the others joining in.

Hirotaka puts out his fist and says, "All in, all out." The others nod their agreement and slam their fists in before mounting back up with their respective vehicles.

Five miles away, Fiske is observing the scene in front of him and nods in approval, electing to follow Street Hawk to wherever he goes. Not being quite satisfied with the answers, he decided to hang back a little bit when he felt that Street Hawk realized he was right behind him.
