Hey:) So here you are the next chapter of I'll Be Your Hero. I believe next chapter will be the Finaly, so stay tuned :)

"Well its no fun if you don't play the game." Clarke and Smith turned to him with confused expressions. "Never mind, lets go." He said smiling. The three of them gatherd into the car and were about to be on their way to the Angecy emergecy private jet. How convenient. Jack put the car in drive and they were on their way "Im coming for you Kim..."

About three hours later an old, used, rusted car pulled into the abandond parking lot of 'First Choice Auto'. When I say abandond, I mean abandond, it looked as if no one had been there for decades. There was nothing there. All that stood was an old, beaten down building with what looked like to be miles of forests planted behind it. All around them stood darkness, the only source of light by the only working light of the building. It glowed in the darkness. It illuminated two men stood at the doorway, Exavier and what looked like to be a body guard. Clarke cautiously stepped out of the car.

"Where's my Father?" Exavier asked.

"Getting right to the point are we? I thought we could have a chat"

"About what?"

"How are you Exavier?" Clarke asked with a smile. "It's been a while.."

"Yes, a decade is a long time. You know.." Exavier began walking towards him "If you hadn't pissed me off that day then maybe Lianne would still be alive. I can see you really love'd her"

"Don't make me want to kill you anymore then I already do. Is that why you requested me?"

"Why yes it. I figured old friend, why not catch up?" A devilish grin grew on his face, he was enjoying this a little two much. Clarke could tell. He rose his fist and punched Exavier right in the face. "I can see it's still a touchy subject" He finished rubbing his jaw.

"Growing up at the same highschool does not make us old friends, it makes us have history, that's it. Not to metion you just happend to run the love of my life over with your car. So no. Suprisingly, I do not consider you my friend."

"Alright, now we're done chatting, lets get down to buisness. My father?"

"He's sitting knocked out in the back of my car"

"Go get him" Clarke didn't say a word. He just walked back to the old beated car and opend the door to the backseat. Exavier could see a person stretched along the seats, feet towards him, but he couldn't tell just yet if it was his father. That's when he saw Clarke turn around with a gun in his hands. "Oh Clarke, no need for weapons, I just want my father" He said with a grin.

"Text Anderson where Kim is, then I will drop the gun and hand over your father." Exavier and his body guared were now side my side about five meters away from Clarke. His gun was pointed right at Exaviers head. He stood stiff.

"You know what Clarke?" Exavier began taking a few steps closer "Lianne never loved you-"

"Shut up"

"- She told me herself. To her, you were just some stupid-"

"Shut up"

"-little boyfriend that she never even cared about. She only-"

"SHUT UP" Exavier had sucssesfully got under Clarke's skin. He knew he couldn't shoot him because if he died, Jack would never know where Kim was. He had now made it so he was standing only inches away from the gun that was still pointed at his head.

"-dated you because she couldn't get anything better!" He yelled. He then grabbed Clarkes gun twisting it around in his fingers so it was no longer pointed at him. A few shots were fired as Exavier managed to fling the gun out of Clarkes hand and to a safe distance. The then kicked him in the gut leaving his body hit the car behind him. The body guard came up and grabbed Clarke putting him in a head lock. There is no way I'm getting out of this one. Exavier cautiously approched the opend car door and peared inside. Thats when it happend. A hard kick in the face knocked Exavier to the ground as Smith shot out of the car.

"On the ground, hand in the air!" She barked at the two men. Exaver rolled around in pain as Smit'hs gun was locked on the body guard that held Clarke. Tires from around the corner screetched as they came to a stop, Jack had pulled up in anether beat up, rental car. He quickly pulled himself out of the drivers seat and stood beside Smith, his gun pointed in the same direction.

"Let go of the agent" Jack said calmly. The man didn't flinch. He just stood there. After moments had passed he didn't release, but rather the oppoiste, he tighted his grip on Clarke's neck.

"Let go!" Smith yelled. He didn't. They watched as the blood began to rush to Clarke's face. Apparently, this guy had some sort of a death wish because he wasn't going to let go. They watched as Clarke tried to struggle free. This just made the grip tighten.

"1" Jack yelled. Nothing.

"2" He yelled again. More nothing, this guy wasn't letting go.

"3" When the man didn't let go Jack fired a single shot hitting the man in the head. His grip released Clarke as he tumbled to the ground. Clarke regained his balance and caught his breath as Jack and Smith ran up to him. Then they heard it. Footsteps. Hearing the gunshot, Exavier had helped himself up and began to run.

"I got this one" Clarke said while chasing after him. They watched as he tackled Exavier to the ground giving him a hard punch in the face, and a kick in the gut in the process. He then dragged his sorry ass back to Jack and Smith who threw him against the car.

"Wheres Kim" Jack asked stifly. He wasn't playing around, not right now. He was done with this stupid game.

"You don't get to know, that wasn't the deal." Jack punched him again in the face. He was annoyed. Then he grabbed him by the shirt and pulled him closer.

"Where is she!" Jack yelled in his face. Exavier did nothing but laugh histericly. He basicly threw him in the back of the car and locked the doors behind him.

"Now what?" Smith asked.

"We split up?" Clarke suggested. They began to walk towards the building

"And go where? The forest extends for miles with nothing but a train track!" Jack stopped in his tracks.

"Train Track? Fairytale. Damsel in destress. I need to save her and we'll live happily ever after. Its all just a game" He mutterd to himself before he broke out into a sprint.

"Where are you going!" Clarke yelled after him.

"To win the game!"


Kim rolled over in an attempt to go back to sleep. And then it hit her, she couldn't. Her eyes opend in a panic as she struggled from side to side. She began to observe her surrounding.

"What the hell is this the 1950's!" She yelled to no one... Cause there was no one there to hear here. She was alone. In the dark. Tied to a train tack. She spent the next few moments tring to undue the knot around her hands with the cold metal bars on which she lay. But it was no use, she couldn't undo them. Im going to die... You're going to die. She could hear Exavier's cold words again.

"Get out of my head" She mumbled to herself. She rested her head agaist the bar before trying to wiggle her feet free, nothing. She let out a sigh. She was a sitting duck, an open target, a damsel in distress, and there was nothing she could do. Nothing, just sit here and wait to die. She thought about her life, she'd been doing that alot lately. She was asked once,"If you would die tomorrow, would you die happy?" That question never ment anything to her till now. And the answer was yes, she would. She had accomplished so many things, head cheerleader, black belt, head reporter, candy-stripped girl, graduated with honors and had a fabulous job in New York. She also grew up with friends, the best of friends anyone could ask for, and a loving family. Her mom. She loved her mom with all her heart. They were very close for a mother and daughter, she was her bestfriend. He mind then drifted to Jack. Oh Jack. Next thing you know, she was reliving one of her favourtie memories...

-Flash Back-

Jack walked me home after one of our tournements. It was late. We have been at the Dojo celebrating our victory for hours. My parents wouldn't mind me being late, they wern't home. They were on some sort of buisness trip, not out of the norm. So it was kind of nice being able to spend the night with my family, before going home to a dark, cold, empty house. When me and Jack walked home, we just talked, about anything. We sat there and talked about the ramndomest things for about half an hour, thats when we turned on to my street, Jacks was the street around the corner

"What do you like about me" He asked.

"What?" I responded, I just wanted to make sure I heard him right. I mean, what do I like about him? Well his everything. And I also like how close we are. I never really noticed how close we were untill right now, walking home, just the two of us talking about anything. He's so easy to talk to, not alot of guys are.

"What do you like about me?" Jack repeated.

"Um well, your funny. You know how to make me laugh, even when I'm sad. I like that you're so easy to talk to. It feels like I can tell you anything. And I like how close we are, so I feel comfertable telling you anything..." I let my voice trail off. I told him everything I could tell him. I left out that I love his perfect, messy hair, or I love the way he smells, and his hugs, there so welcoming. And I love how loyal he his, and caring. Jack just nodded at my answer. A few minutes of awkward silence went by as we walked farther down my street.

"Of course she plays the personality card" He snickerd. Really Jack? You finally say something and thats it! I gave him a shove.

"Oh hush" I said with a smile, he returned it. Oh, how I love his smile, just to add to the list. We walked for a few more minutes in silence untill we reached my driveway. "What do you like about me?" I asked him. We were now standing on my porch.

"Oh look, you're home!" Jack exclaimed. "Night Kimmy" He said before taking a step down the steps on my porch. I grabbed his wrist and pulled him back up.

"Jack.." I winned. Thats when I noticed the grip on his wrist had moved down into his hand. I quickly released not wanting to make it awkward. "What you you like about me?"

"Well" He began with a sigh. He took a step towards me "I love how tough you are, you're a girl who's not afriad and is capable of holding her ground"

"You're you. No matter who you're with, you change for no one" He took anether step.

"You're funny and sarcastic and always make me laugh, I always have a good time with you" Anether step.

"And your beatiful and smart and unlike any other girl I've met" He reached for my hand placing it in his. I held my breath as he began to lean in. He was leaning in. Was Jack Anderson is actually about to kiss me! Our faces were only an inch apart when a car drove by causing him to hesitate and brake apart. Damn car.

"Bye Kim" He said with a smile, before leaving me on my porch.

-End of Flash Back-

While Kim thought of this memory a smile grew on her face. Jack Anderson had almost kissed her volunterally. Little did she know that the next day he was going to leave. Kim still wishes that she had kissed him that night on her porch. She opened her eyes to see nothing but darkness. If you could see her face, you'd see a look of determination. Kim Crawford was no damnsel in destress. She wasn't going to give up. If the universe had brought her this far just to kill her, that's be stupid. She quickly started attepting to work on the knots around her hands and feet so she could detach the knot around her waste attaching her to the train track. She wasn't giving up...


Jack tore through the forest. He made his way trying to not trip over rocks and tree routes or run into tree's in the process. The vibration of his cell phone caused him to stop.

"Hello?" He answerd before he started sprinting again.

"Anderson, where are you running to!" Clarke screamed from the other side.

"She's tied to the train tracks, its part of his game. A fantasy, he's making her the damsel in destress" He explained between breaths.

"Do you know where your running to?"

"Not a clue. I'm heading streight"

"Uh, Anderson.. I'd hurry up." Smith said worried

"Im sprinting!" He defended

"I know, but thats the Canadian Pacific Rail Road Track, according to the system it should be there in 45 minutes, it should be passing by here any minute.." Even though he was already sprinting he managed to move faster.

"Run Jack! We're behind you we'll meet you at the tracks!" Clarke added. Jack tucked his phone into his pocket without slowing down his pace at all. Maybe it was the adrenaline, becuase he never knew he could actually run this fast. He could feel his heart pounding inside his chest. If he didn't get to her, after all this work, he'd die. No Jack don't think like that. He continued to run, dodge duck and dive trying to get beyond the obstacles that stood in his way. That's when he heard it.

"The train. Shit!" Kim exclaimed tossing and turning from side to could feel the knots bigginging to losen but it still wasn't good enough to get free. She felt around with the mobility her hand did have, for any sharper objects. A rock. A sharper rock layed underneath her, she began sawing away at the rope around her wrists while kicking her feet franticly to free them.

Jack was almost there, he knew he was. Regarless of how tired he was he just kept running. He ran and ran till he finally saw the opening. The train tacks. He has never been so happy to see a set of train tracks in his whole life. He ran over to them scanning up and down. Kim was no where in sight, then again, it was pitch black so his vision probably wasn't the best right now.

"KIM" He screamed "KIM" He screamed again, He stood there in the cold silence awaiting a sound, somthing, anything that would leave him to where she was. And then in came.

"Jack!" Kim hollard. Hearing the sound of his voice never felt so comferting. The train whistle blew again and she was bigging to panic. She had managed to to kick one of her legs free and was still working on her wrists. Almost there... snap! The wrist that was now free, she used to untie the other one, then her foot. Now the only part that needed to be undone what the waistband attaching her to the track.

"Kim" Jack said in slight relief as he ran over to her. He touched her shoulder. A million feelings flew through his body at once. He was in shock. The sight of her, the touch of her, felt so good. He had thought he had lost her forever.

"Jack Im stuck!" Kim paniced. Jack quickly started to help her untie the know around her waist, but it wouldn't undue. It was stuck. "Help!" She pleaded. They say there struggling to undue the knot, when the saw it. The light. The light of the train appeared in the distsance and they watched as it crept forward. "Jack get out of here!" She screamed at him.

"No." He said sternly. There was no changing his mind, even if there was, they didn't have time. There was no way that he was leaving her, not now, not ever. They continued to stuggle to get her free and the train crept closer and closer. Almsot there.. Done. Jack freed her. He quickly helped Kim to her feet pulling her close to him. All her wight was being supported from him when the fell back with a thud. They were now lying on the ground away from the track, Kim in Jack's arms. He just held her as the train passed. She was tence with fear and was shivering from the cold, harsh winds on the night.

"Shh. it's ok" He said, his voice barly a whisper. Even when the train was passed and gone he didn't let go, he didn't want to. She didn't want him to. Now they just lay there, the two of them together. It felt so right. Being in Jacks arms made Kim feel so safe, a feeling she hadn't recived in a while. Even though it's only been a few hours, to the two of them, it's felt like an eternity. Keeping a protective arm around her, he help himself them Kim up. He then pulled her in for anether hug, just to remind him that she was safe.

"Thank you Jack" She said softly.

"I'd do anything for you Kim" The stared into her eyes as she grew a weak smile. "Lets get you home" He said before picking her up, bridal style.

"Jack!" Kim shricked, before he carried her into the forest.
