I take the blame for the long wait. My computer was busted, and it's still busted, but I was able to use my friend's computer. Well, here it is.

CHAPTER 17

WIN OR LOSE?

Jack smirked as he tossed the eye up and down. Kim started to run towards him. Jack reached to insert the eye into its socket, but Kim smashed into him right in time. The eye flew across the room into a corner, and Jack toppled to the ground.

"I ought to kill you." Jack said. "And I will."

Jack rose up in a flash, and reached in for a punch. Direct hit. Kim was sent back to her starting location.

"Now back to business." Jack said as he casually walked to where the eye was lying. "Destroying you and conquering the world!"

The monks looked hopeless. But amazingly, out of nowhere, a savior came down and kicked Jack in the stomach, sending him flying. Who kicked him? None other than Chase Young.

"I owe you a debt of vengeance, insect!" He said. "Surrender now and maybe I'll go easy on you."

"Defeat is not an option." Jack said as he rose up again. "Victory for me is the only way to go."

Jack drew in his book again and created a sword for his use. He grabbed the sword and jumped towards Chase and swung. Chase ducked and dodged with ease, delivering hits of his own every now and then.

Jack backed up and drew in his book again. "Well if I can't beat you…" He said. "You'll have to join me!"

"Not going to happen" Chase replied. "Why would I do that?"

"Because I say so!" Jack said as he revealed what he drew. "Cupid's Arrow!"

The arrow flew into Chase's arm. As with Kimiko, he fell on the ground unconscious. When he awoke, he saw Jack, laughing manically. Chase stood up and began walking towards him.
