Author's Notes: Hi, and welcome back! In the previous chapter, Sky and Bridge were out having a fun and relaxing day, when Dru came out of nowhere and fought them with similar SWAT tech as theirs. He defeated them and kidnapped Bridge for some evil plan. Are you caught up now? Good. Let's get this story started.

Broodwing's Plan

Chapter 2: Mystery Solved

Broodwing was busy with something over at his workbench, and Dru was sitting in a chair while reading a book. Bridge, after a continued struggle with the chair that held him, gave a small yell of anger through his gag. Sporadically, he would take short breaks in order to look around at the area where he was being held, hoping that eventually he would find something. Nothing came.

"Grrrrrr!" he growled in frustration, causing Dru to look up from his book.

"Keep it down, scum! I'm trying to read!" he said, and Bridge just glared at him. He gave a dry laugh and went back to his book.

Bridge, not knowing what else to do, began to jump up and down in his seat. Dru looked up from his book again.

"Knock it off, Carson, or else," he said, raising a fist in anger. Bridge kept going and going, so Dru stood up and walked over to him. "Knock it off now, Carson. I mean it! Stop now!" he shouted at Bridge.

Bridge ignored him and kept on jumping. Dru, now completely pissed off, lifted his hand to hit Bridge. Bridge saw this and stopped his jumping, then closed his eyes in preparation for the impact he knew would be coming. Suddenly, a voice from the distance shouted at Dru.

"Don't you dare hit him!"

Bridge slowly opened his eyes and saw Dru was reluctantly dropping his hand down.

"Why not! He needs a good beating to keep him in line," Dru said while glaring at Bridge.

Bridge tried to move away from Dru, and Broodwing suddenly began to laugh. Bridge and Dru both looked at him, confusion in both of their faces. After a minute, Broodwing turned around with a large ring in his hands and began to walk toward Bridge, a pleased look on his face. Bridge was becoming increasingly scared as he noticed Broodwing stopping right in front of him.

"Now, let's get this part of my plan started."

Broodwing was unsuccessful in trying to place the ring on Bridge's head, as Bridge kept moving it out of the way. This went on for almost a minute, and Broodwing's anger increased with every second that went on. He then motioned for Dru to hold Bridge's head. Dru did as he was told and seized the side of Bridge's head.

Bridge knew it was no use to try and get out of Dru's grip, so he decided to hold still as the ring was placed on his head. Suddenly, there was an immediate blinding pain in his head, and couldn't help but squirm painfully in the chair he was chained in.

Dru look down with a calm face and asked the obvious question, "What's happening to him?"

Broodwing laughed. "The ring on his head is erasing his memories and replacing them with new ones."

Dru look at Broodwing. "Why are you doing that?" he asked, and Broodwing looked at him.

"You will know within an hour."

He then walked away and back to his table. Dru shrugged it off and walked away too, leaving Bridge alone to suffer.

(At SPD base)

Sky was lying in the hospital wing, band-aids covering his face and arms. The Rangers, Cruger, and Kat were in the room with him, as for the last 30 minutes Sky had been telling them about what happen with Dru in the park.

"So Dru is now out of prison and took Bridge, under Broodwings orders?" Jack questioned.

Z and Syd were standing by Sky's bedside, while Kat was doing some checkup exams on Sky.

"Sir, what did the note say?" asked Sky.

Cruger gave a sigh and said, "All it said was, 'Goodbye, SPD.'"

Sky looked at him, lost for words.

"What do you think it means, sir?" asked Z, speaking for the first time, and Cruger shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't know. It could mean anything…" he said.

Kat put away a little flashlight she held and said, "We should leave now and let Sky get some rest."

The Rangers filed out of the room, all wishing Sky a goodnight sleep, and Sky nodded his head.

Cruger stayed long enough to say, "None of us blame you about Bridge being taken."

Cruger shut off the light and closed the door behind him. Sky waited a few minutes before he let the tears come out, and punched the pillow a few dozen times, pissed that he couldn't even stop Dru from taking Bridge. He put his head against the pillow and began to cry against it.

"I don't care how many times they tell me it wasn't my fault, because it was!"

Bridge was his best friend and like his little brother. Sure, it may not have been by blood, but it definitely was close enough.

He threw the blanket over his head before making a silent pledge to get Bridge back, even if it meant killing Dru. Sleep slowly came over him.

(At Broodwing's hideout)

The hours slowly passed by, and Bridge still lay unmoving in his chair. Broodwing had removed the ring earlier, then ordered Dru to take off the chains and gag. A short time later, Bridge stood up, his eyes blank.

"How do you feel, Bridge?" Broodwing asked cautiously, and was pleasantly surprised to see Bridge go down on one knee and bow down.

"I am doing good, master," Bridge said in a cold and almost monotone voice.

Both Dru and Broodwing began to laugh almost evilly.

"SPD, and then the world. I am one step closer to ruling the whole universe!"

Bridge stood up and crossed his arms, a wicked smile spread across his face.

How was that? It's actually maybe a little shorter than I thought it would be, but oh well; it answered the question from the last chapter. Please review! Chapter 3 is coming soon.
