"Sir, we captured the girl", said a messenger.
"Excellent, now all we have to", was all the master got to say.
"BUT, the boy, the one we informed you of, retrieved her and in return Nate managed to turn in their other little friend to us", said the messenger.
"Well, I suppose we make something of this new situation. Prepare the Saberguards and bring me the prisoner", the master said.
"Yes sir. Right away", the messenger obeyed.

Terra slept on a bench behind the gas station, while I sat on the ground wondering what was going to happen to us next.
"Mhhmmm", Terra whined behind her muzzle struggling to free herself of the ropes that bond her wrists and ankles that I had somehow forgotten to untie. I slid my left hand down my right arm creating an air sword and sliced through ropes.
I was expecting at least a "thank you for saving me", but instead I got slapped AGAIN! She sure likes to slap me!
"You idiot", she exclaimed again. That also appears to be one of her favorite words. "You let Nate get away", she screamed!
"What", I questioned!?
"Where is Nate", she demanded.
"I don't know. He and Chase disappeared after the crash", I replied.
"What crash", she asked?
"You don't remember the crash. That's how I ended saving you", I proudly stated.
"Wait, you saved me", she snared, "Well I guess that makes us even. We have to find Chase; he's in grave danger."
"Wait why is he in danger", I asked?
"Because he's with Nate; have you not you even tried to figure out what's going on. Nate kidnapped me and turned me over to the Ganguards. We have to find Chase and quick", she said!
I showed off my new skills to Terra, while she thought intensively on a plan to save Chase. She was quite impressed with the air roller blades and the air board. Our clothes were all dirty and raggedy. We were going need some new clothe, armor, and some info. We flew back to the site of the crash on my air board, but by the time we got there the police had already cleaned the scene. Just then some strange men, that looked similar to the ganguards, arrived just as we did. Terra and I quickly got off the air board and rolled behind the nearest bush. These new strange men had a dark silver metallic armor with scales covering their bodies. They were actually thin, or thinner compared to the Ganguards. They looked like regular fit men just with armor.
Terra wrote on the ground to me, "Don't talk. These men are Saberguards; twice as fast, strong, and smart as Ganguards. They have ultrasonic hearing, so don't speak. They virtually hear almost everything."
Terra accidentally inhaled the dust in the air from us rolling and coughed. BLAST! A white blast filled the air around us and disintegrated everything near us. Terra jumped to the left while I hopped on a pair of my air blades, shooting myself into the sky. Terra pulled her swords out and swiftly ran towards one of the Saberguards. The Saberguard also appeared to have super senses. The Saberguard, quickly reacting, hopped into the air horizontally avoiding Terra's newly sharpened swords, landed, and shot a white blast out of the palm of its hand just like Iron Man. Terra went flying through the air straight into my arm as I zoomed through the air on my air blades.
Terra was hurt; her clothes were all tattered. She had serious burn all over her arms and back. BLAST! I shot to the left in the air barely missing the devastating blast. I set Terra down behind a rock; she wanted to get back up to fight, but her body ached and resisted. I ran back with air blades whirling in my hands. All four of the Saberguards heard me coming and fired at me with no hesitation. I jumped and soared right over it. I rolled and tossed an air blade at one of the Saberguards. The Saberguard tried avoiding it but I had made a wall of air directly behind it hoping it wouldn't move to either side. It worked! The Saberguard had been sliced in half, but it was still alive! I scurried off the ground into the air.
I looked back and was knocked down by what felt like a heavy weight. It was the Saberguards head! I got up and prepared my air swords only to see Terra fighting off the Saberguards like some super ninja. Without hesitation, I jumped in the fight. Terra and I went back to back and fought and sliced the Saberguards. They tried to throw some fish net fish on us but Terra sliced through it or tried to at least. They also threw some paralyzing wire around her ankles at the same time. The net wrapped itself around her and like a blanket.
The Saberguards snagged her and rocketed into the sky. Mounds of fire burst from the Saberguards boots as he soared through the air with my friend. I hopped on my air blades and soared right behind them.
A ship, which I'm assuming is their ship, appeared out of nowhere. A ramp opened in the middle ship, where the Saberguards flew into. I hopped off my air blades and onto the back of one of the Saberguards. I whipped out my air sword and stabbed it right through its back and yanked up with all my strength, tearing its tough body in half. It had been a lot tougher than I thought, but I knew I had to do it…for Terra!
There were two left and we were almost to the ship. I chucked an air blade out of my hand directly at a Saberguards. The Saberguard flew out of control, falling to earth like a meteor. The falling Saberguard left a crater on earth and then sky rocketed back up to us. His leg had apparently mechanically transformed into one, which means he has amazing balance!
His attempt had failed as had mine. I had failed to get to Terra in time but I was able to sneak on the ship just as the ramp was closing. The Saberguard hadn't had enough time to make it back and conveniently smashed its head between the ramp and the ship. I hadn't saved Terra quite yet, but I still had time…hopefully.
I quickly hopped behind an iron crate as they took Terra hostage. I looked for security cameras or anything of the sort, but found nothing…luckily. I tagged along behind Terra and the Saberguards staying out of sight. Just then I saw one of the last people I'd expect to see on the ship; though should have expected it. It was Chase, being escorted to his cell. He looked like he had just got curb stomped or the crap beaten out of him; all I knew was that he didn't look good and I had to get him out of there.
I watched Terra as the Saberguards continued to escort her pass the cells. She continued to squirm. I didn't know where they were taking her but it wasn't they took Chase. Just then Terra broke free of the paralyzing net; the effect must have been wearing off. She quickly pulled out her swords as she was tranquilized. The Saberguards dragged her into a weird room with all these awkward tools, which kinda creeped me out.
I was starting feel dizzy…and faint…and weary…and…and then I blacked out. I woke up pinned to a table. I was weak.
