Time Run: Chapter 6

"Here we are" Jack said as he pulled up to the car park out the front of his house

"You live here?" Skye asked

"Yes, where else" Jack Replied

They got out of the black Porsche and walked up the concrete path to the Blackwood door that was surrounded by a skin pale brick wall and a brown tiled roof. Jack opened the door with his house key and they walked in to a well decorated Renaissance type house. A voice than said

"Welcome home you have 12 new messages"

The blinds automatically opened to reveal the capital city at night with all its light and brightness shimmering into the window causing a slight glare effect to occur.

"Wow this is very, interesting" Skye said in an amazed tone

"Yes, please make yourself at home" Jack said

As Skye and Tech went to sit down Skye was attacked by a robotic looking animal

"Emris, Down!" Exclaimed Jack to the robot

"Sorry Jack, I thought they were spies!" Exclaimed Emris

The Robotic looking tiger got of Skye. It had half of its fur and flesh still on but a lot of the body was mainly Robot. The robot parts were white and had a tint of grey, one of his eyes were robotic and had a blue Iris.

"How did this happen?" Skye asked Jack as she got up from the ground to take a closer look

"I found him back in my time, he had be mauled horrifically and attacked by lions, his
vitals were fading, and I took him back to my lab and gave him a second chance, I also added a voice box so i could understand him during his recovery, after that he just practically followed me and has been loyal to me"

Emris was just sitting their itching at the part of his fur that was still on him. Tech took a closer examination while Jack poured himself a shot of whiskey and then drank it down.

"Now all the information you're looking for is right here, follow me" Jack asked

Skye and Tech followed Jack and Emris to the study which housed most of his items that he had gotten through time travel and the information on Shale.

"All the information you need is here at your disposable" Jack said

Tech was instantly drawn towards Shale's history while Skye was interested in what his goal was

"Graduated Harvard, straight A's, this guy sounds way too good to be a criminal" Skye said

"Shale was the unstable type, he was nice one day and bad the next, I should tell you more" Jack explained

"Go ahead" Tech said

"A month after we found the crack Shale became more agitated, the group wondered why he was acting like he was, we thought that radiation being caused by the crack was making his mind go insane slightly every day. One day while I was working Shale stormed the room which where the crack was being examined. He held up the place luckily I was not within his line of sight when he killed my team, he took one of the time travel devices we made which enables the crack to transport us through time" Jack continued to explain while Skye and Tech were listening.

It turned out that Jack had been hunting him for the last the three years and was desperate to catch him. He explained more about the transport devices claiming that they controlled what time zone the person would want to visit. After looking through all of the information Tech asked Jack something that was bothering him

"So what exactly is Shale's goal if he does raise this alien army?"

"His goal is to control time, edit events that are fixed for example World War II, The fall of Gemini and so forth"

As they were finishing up the AI voice came on again

"Warning: Unknown personas detected recommend defensive measures"

Then BANG a huge explosion went off and blew off a huge chunk of the wall. The living room was covered in dust and wall chunks as a scaled, green, crocodile humanoid walked in the room. He was wearing completely black clothing as if it was a night time operation
"Fan out and find him" Said the man in a crackled type tone
As the Unknown person's searched the room, Jack grabbed his rifle from the wall

"Stay here, Emris keep them safe" Jack instructed

Emris gave Jack a firm nod of agreement. He walked out of the study into the main hallway where two soldiers were searching for him, Jack quickly grabbed them both by the head and knocked them out so he wouldn't make too much noise.

"I know your hear Jack, Show yourself" yelled the man again

"Man, does he not shut up" Skye whispered

Jack walked around the corner and knocked out the two remaining guards. As he did that the man turned around

"Why couldn't you just join us Jack!" He exclaimed

"You know why Luris" Jack replied

As Jack aimed his Rife, Luris pulled out his Handgun. They both threw insults and bantered at each other hoping that one of them would eventually pull the trigger and win.

"We have to do something" Tech suggested

"I have an idea, stay here" Skye said to Tech and Emris

Skye walked out silently and unnoticed by Luris and Jack. She changed her hand into her blaster getting ready to try and resolve the conflict by knocking Luris cold.

"I'm sorry old friend" Luris then readied his revolver and was about to shot Jack but as he was about to pull the trigger Skye took the shot with her blaster and hit Luris with a stun shot. He was out cold and disarmed

"Nice shot" Emris Said to Skye

"Thanks" She replied

Jack went and got a dazed Luris and tied him up on a chair and began to interrogate him. He asked questions about Shale's whereabouts and what he was planning to do if he got his army. Skye and Tech decided to help Emris clean up the room and repairing the wall so that there wouldn't been this big portion of the wall missing. After about three hours the wall had been repaired and Jack came out from interrogating Luris.

"So what did you get out of him?" Skye asked

"Not much, it's going to take more time to get answers out of him, I think you should go, it's going to be along night" Jack replied

"Ok, well we'll see you around then" Tech said

They both walked out through the Blackwood door that now had wood chipped off because the explosion. Tech hailed a Taxi that was just coming by when Skye asked Tech

"Can we trust him?"

"I don't know Skye, but for now we do"
