Chapter 6: home stretch
Hunter and Colleen were still behind the crate trying to find out what to do. There were ten of them total. Hunter was thinking of a strategy, since there was only two of them it was going to be a bit harder. Colleen spoke, "Huntie what should we do?"
He was silent for a bit but then spoke, "I'll distract them and then you sneak up and try to take out as many as possible."
Colleen nodded, "yes, good idea. Just be careful."
They both hugged each other, "I will." Once they broke apart Hunter used his speed and ran out into the open, getting the attention of the guards. Once they saw him they started firing, but Hunter kept running. Meanwhile Colleen ran out over to the group and jumped kicked on in the head. As the rest turned to her Colleen did a roundhouse kick, knocking down three more. Two were about to shoot at her, but Hunter ran over and tackled them. Colleen grabbed one and threw him into another one. Hunter looked around and found one of them was missing. "Colleen one's missing."
Colleen noticed as well. She looked over and saw him running over to one of the crates, "Huntie he's over there!"
He looked over and saw him. They then pursued him, but stopped when saw him pull out a M249 light machine gun. "What are you!" he yelled.
"We're the Road Rovers and we're going to stop your plans," Hunter responded.
He just smirked, "not with me and my other three friends still around," Salem responded back.
Axel and Ariel hid in the shadows as the unknown number of guards searched the whole room trying to find them. Axel looked out into the room and could almost see some of them. He couldn't see that many to get a good count on how many there were. He turned back to Ariel and whispered, "Ok, I don't know how many there are but as long as we stay in the shadows we'll be good."
"So what's the plan?" she whispered back.
He started thinking for a sec, "lets just try to take them out silently. If we can stick to the shadows we should be good."
She nodded, "Alright, can you sense them?"
Axel then closed his eyes and stayed silent for a bit, "yes, they're spread around." He opened his eyes; "lets hurry and take them out fast. Ariel nodded as they slowly walked out from their hiding spot. Axel then gave a signal for them to split up. Axel pressed his back against the wall as he walked along side it. He could barely see because of the light but his senses were helping him with it. He stopped when he heard nearby footsteps. He was in the shadows, so no one could see him. He watched as one of the guards walked by him. He then took the chance to sneak up behind him. He stood up, covered the guard's mouth and punched him in his neck knocking him out. Axel made sure that he didn't make noise as he dragged the guard off to the side. He immediately sensed another one coming and stayed on the side until he passed. He then rushed out and repeated what he did.
Ariel stayed low as she walked. She stopped when she heard footsteps on metal right above her. She looked up and saw one of them on the walkway above her. She noticed that it was reachable for her to climb up, so she jumped and grabbed the rail and pulled herself up silently. She walked over to him and chopped his neck, knocking him out. Ariel immediately crouched back down after finishing. She then looked over and scanned the room the best she could, but she couldn't find anyone else. So she thought they got them all.
Axel also scanned and couldn't find anything. He blew a sigh of relief but then sensed something behind him and turned to catch a pipe that was about to strike him. Axel then tried pushing the pipe back but the person who had it was evenly matched with him in terms of strength. "I'm going to enjoy this," Mac said.
Axel struggled to push back, "Not today." Axel then pushed back and gave him a right hook to the face. Mac immediately recovered and swung the pipe, but Axel jumped back. Mac charged but Axel jumped and grabbed the walkway above and pulled himself up. Mac then swung himself up and started swinging the pipe more. Axel kept dodging, but had trouble since Mac swung real fast, but he didn't see his leg sweep his. Axel fell to the ground and looked up and saw him about to swing down but something stopped him.
Ariel grabbed the pipe just in time before Mac could strike Axel. She pulled back then released her grip as he turned, "So you want some to huh." Mac then started swinging at her. Ariel dodged easily then grabbed the pipe and hit Mac's wrist, which caused him to drop the pipe. She then punched his face. Mac stumbled back a bit and was about to strike but then Axel came up from behind and did a baseball swing to his head, which caused him to stumbled to the rail. Both Ariel and Axel then punched him right in his face, which made him fall to the floor knocked out. Both didn't do anything after that, catching their breaths. Axel then blew a sigh of relief, "thanks Ariel."
"Your welcome…is that all of them?" she asked.
Axel nodded, "yes, I can't sense anyone else."
Ariel then checked the down guard and pulled out a key, "this must open the door to the cargo holds."
Axel noticed this, "Ok lets hurry up and free the hostages. Lets just leave these guys here, they won't go anywhere for a while." Ariel nodded as they both made their way to the exit of the room.
Blitz and Krystal hid behind the crates as their pursuers checked the room. They didn't know how many there were, so they didn't really know how to proceed. They both were silent as Blitz peaked around the crate and check the room the best he could. "What do you see?" Krystal whispered.
Blitz kept looking, "I'm not sure, I can't really see anyone." He then pulled back.
"What's the plan?" Krystal asked.
Blitz began thinking, "I'm not really sure, I'm not that good of a planner…lets just try to take them out one by one."
"Ok," she said.
"Just stay close to me," Blitz said.
They both kept low as they walked out from their hiding spots, slowly, and looked around. They stopped when they heard footsteps and then saw one of the guards walking past them. Blitz took the opportunity to grab him, and cover his mouth. Then he pulled him back where no one could see them. He whispered to him, "tell me how many of you are in here, and don't you dare yell or else." He then showed the guard his claws and that seemed to scare him enough to nod.
Blitz uncovered his mouth, "jus…just six of us including me, and one of our lieutenant's."
Blitz nodded as he started squeezing his neck until the guard passed out. "One down, five to go."
"Lets hurry up and take out the rest," Krystal said.
Blitz nodded, as they went back out to find the rest of them. They looked around but couldn't find anyone it was like they vanished. "I don't like the look of this," Blitz said.
"I wonder where they went," Krystal said.
Blitz then listened real carefully for any sound. Suddenly he heard footsteps coming real fast, he turned to see one of the guards rushing him with his gun but Blitz managed to grab the gun and throw him, which made him let go of the gun. Blitz then tore it apart, "Krystal be on your guard!"
She nodded as she looked around. She then heard a sound from above. She looked up and saw on of them jump off one of the crates and headed strait for her. Krystal wasn't scared, so she threw a punch; which hit the guard's gut. He then fell to the ground in pain. Blitz noticed and was impressed on how quickly she reacted. He was brought back to his senses when one of the crates opened and two of them appeared and charged him. Blitz just charged and clotheslines the both of them. both of them started to get up but Krystal then went behind of them flipped on. The other guard was about to attack her but then felt Blitz's fist to his head, which knocked him out. They looked around and found all of the guards knocked out. "That must be all of them," Blitz said.
Krystal then counted them all, "wait didn't the guy say there was six of them?"
Blitz remembered and counted, "yeah, where's the other?"
All of a sudden out of nowhere the last guard snuck behind and grabbed Krystal and held a knife to her neck. Blitz was shocked to see that happen. "Try to save her and she dies," Louis said.
Blitz was growling angrily, "don't you dare harm her!"
"Surrender now and I won't harm her." Louis said.
Blitz was now in a bad situation. He cared for Krystal's safety but he had no idea on how to help her. He then relished he couldn't do anything, and he didn't want Krystal to get hurt, so he was about to do what the guy said to do but then noticed something. Krystal was trying giving him signs with her eyes. They were pointing to the knife, it took him a while to understand but he then figured out what she was going to do. He had to be quick at it so he got ready and gave her a nod. Krystal then grabbed the knife and twisting it out of Louis's grasp. Blitz then charged and rammed him with his shoulder. He recovered and tried to stab Krystal but Blitz interfered by grabbing his wrist and twisting it until he dropped it. He then brought his face close to his, "don't you ever try to harm her again." he said in an angry voice. Blitz then punched him straight in his face, knocking him out. After that he turned back to Krystal. "Krystal are you Ok?" he said in a concern voice.
She nodded, "yes thank you Blitz." They both stayed in silence for a bit, then they pulled each other close. "Thank you, I didn't think that would work."
Blitz just held her, "thanks for the signs, I wouldn't have been able to find out without them."
"But still, you saved me," she said.
"I won't let anything happen to you," he said. They both stayed in silence for a bit longer. They broke apart, "come on we still have to save the hostages."
She nodded, "your right, lets go." They both left and headed to their destination.
Exile, Shag and Muzzle were in a tight situation now since there were ten men in front of them now. Exile was trying to figure out a plan. He moved a bit, "Freeze!" one of the guards yelled.
'No problem' he thought as he used his ice vision to freeze the floor beneath them, which caused them to slip and fall. With that they ran and hid whatever cover they could find. Once the guards regain their composer they started looking for them. behind a stack of boxes Exile looked out and saw that they were spread out, so it would be hard trying to get them all. One spotted them and aimed his gun, but Exile used his heat vision to melt the gun. He then used his ice vision to freeze him in place. Soon the footsteps of the others were heard, so Exile froze the floor, which caused them to slip and fall to the ground again. While they were trying to recover Exile got an idea and looked over at Shag, "hey Shag do you think Muzzle wants to play?"
Shag got the idea and nodded, "Rah(Yah)."
He then wheeled Muzzle over as Exile spoke, "Muzzle time to play." He then undid the restraints as Muzzle started snarling and then jumped forward at them. Once the guards saw him they all yelled in terror as Muzzle started his carnage. Both Exile and Shag looked away in disgust as Muzzle kept at it for a few minutes. After the noise stopped they looked over and saw the guards knocked out and Muzzle gave his sigh followed by a burp. They reattached his restraints and soon went back to the door, with the handle in hand. Exile reattached it and started opening it. Once opened they were greeted by small arms fire from inside. They were on the side of the door, but the fire didn't seem to stop. Exile then turned to Shag, who pulled out a small ball and threw it inside. A few seconds later small smoke was seen and then the gunfire stopped. They slowly stepped inside and found one of them one the ground knocked out. They looked inside the room and saw it was he was inside the control. They restrained him, "Come Shag lets find others," Exile side. Shag nodded as he followed Exile, who had the guard over his shoulder.
Hunter and Colleen hid behind one of the crates as Salem kept firing at them. They had to find a way to disarm him without getting hit. Once the fire stopped they heard another voice, "Best come out now or else!"
They both looked out from behind the crate and saw another person next to Salem, he looked way different from the rest so the assumed he was the leader of the operation. They pulled back as Hunter spoke, "that must be the leader, we have to take them out."
Colleen began thinking then got an idea, "Huntie do you think you can distract them?"
He nodded, "yes, why?"
"I have a plan," she said as she picked up a small wooden box nearby.
Hunter understood what she was going to do, so he got up, gave her a thumbs up before running out and getting their attention. When they saw him they fired, and then Colleen threw the box at Salem, knocking it out of his hands. She then rushed over and jumped kicked him, knocking him down. Captain Rios saw and aimed his gun at her but Hunter saw this, charged and tackled him. he grabbed him and threw him to the side, as did Colleen did with Salem. They both landed in they same spot and were about to attack again. "Freeze!"
They all heard this and soon all the captive men reveled themselves, pointing their guns at the two fallen, defenseless men. Hunter and Colleen smiled at the scene before them. they also saw the rest of their teammates by their side. Their mission was done.
All the terrorist were caught and thrown into the ships brig until they docked back on shore. The rovers made their was back to the sub Rover but were stopped by someone." Who's the leader of this group?"
Hunter stepped forward, "I am sir."
"I'm the captain of this ship, and on behalf of the crew I would like to thank you all for the help you gave us today." He then extended his hand.
Hunter gladly shook it, "it was no problem it's our job to do it."
"I wish you all a safe journey home."
The Rovers thanked him as they hopped inside the sub Rover and started making their way back home.
