Chapter 4
Lost and Found...
Francis had been quiet ever since he told them about Olga which had been about 2 days ago. They had been searching all over the place for Catherine and Olga especially around the Concorde since his brother Jason had told them he had seen. The SH in their group which were himself, Ron, and Francis were the ones who were sent out to search for them since any SH could sense out other SH near by. But sometimes their hopes would go high when one time Ron thought he sensed them but it ended up being Francis who had been near by so there were a few flaws to it.
Even though Jake was the chosen one doesn't mean he was more experienced, he still trains to use and maintain his powers. The physical powers like running at great speeds and strength were good but his mental powers were what he had the most problems with but Ron and Francis said it took them years to even do half the stuff he could in a year so he was either learning on a good pace or it had something to do with being the chosen one. He didn't want to be treated any differently for being the chosen one either if it was good or bad, he wanted to be just like any other SH but that didn't mean he never took it for granted because he did.
One question that could never be answered is why he was this chosen one. Francis said it had something to do with his genes but that was the only thing he knew about it, he couldn't put it into scientific detail. If this were true then could their be more than just one chosen one. Francis had told him not to think about it too much but he said it could be a possibility.
But anyways Jake with Jake out in front of the restaurant where he and Marla had been 2 days ago when the shooting occurred just looking around but they stayed unnoticeable by authorities. They had been seated at a bench quite a while now just staying cool but alert for any signs of Catherine and Olga. Francis had told them they would be clung together so it should be like killing two birds with one stone. But he also mentioned not to approach them to quickly since they had no clue who they were so Jason and Jake didn't really know what to do if they did but they stuck to their objective and kept their eyes open.
"So when do you think these girls are going to get some fresh air." (meaning when they would find her) Jason was growing impatient but that always tends to happen with him."Now Jason I think you should just sit back and relax you never know when they're coming." Jason made himself comfortable on the bench.
Time passed by pretty quick for Jake he was just sitting back looking around perfectly content but Jason was moving around and talking about completely random things "Can't you feel anything... just anything man..." Jason was definitely not good at doing things that involved patience. "Nope not yet sorry Jason but I'm just not feeling it." He didn't even have to look to see what Jason was doing probably slapped his leg and sighed with his arm propping up his head. He looked over... made a really good guess.
About an hour or so was when they moved to the Concorde to see what they could get also getting some food to eat too. They made their way through the crowds of pedestrians which is usual around there and sat at another bench. "Here we go again..." Jason was definitely not excited to be doing this but Jake could care less. "Yep lets roll." They began to scan the crowds of people for a sign of their objective while eating their food.
"Damn I wander when you'll get your little orgasm that tells you shes around." Jason laughing. "Alright first of all your joke really sucked and second of all if I ever did sense anything its not that accurate it could be anyone like Francis or Ron or who knows an apprentice but I don't think we would find one of those around here but you never know." Jason was to busy laughing so Jake just got right back to the job. He was beginning to wish he would get that little feeling or sign of an SH around just that one little feeling but he just couldn't get it. Jake himself was beginning to grow impatient believe it or not but how could he not after spending 8 hours looking around for two girls with his brother Jason.
He waited and waited then suddenly the feeling hit him out of no where, it was excited him so much he almost wanted to pounce out of his seat and dance but he looked back at one time it was just Ron passing by so he didn't go all in on it. "I got it." Jake mumbled to Jason who had been waiting for it too. " Oh man that's fantastic don't lose it I'll look around." Jason got up from the bench and started looking through the crowds of people. Jake sat their for a moment then got up and head through the opposite direction getting an even strong feeling of the nearby SH. He must be getting closer to he or she.
He moved through the crowds trying to find it but there had no sign of them until... He saw them right there in front of him was the long black haired Catherine and little Olga crossing the street. But before he could even walked toward someone bumped into him. He looked toward the person who had bumped into him. He looked up to see what he never thought he would find around here. The person who had bumped into him was a tough looking man who had a low profile jacket and a baseball cap on his head shading out his two eyes... which were glowing red... very unnoticeable.
The man who had he now discovered was an apprentice who hadn't bothered to apologize was moving through the crowd bumping into people toward Catherine. Jake was surprised to see one here in a place like this but when he thought more about the reasons why it was more understandable. He followed the apprentice but also kept his eye on his objective.
They eventually made it to the cross walk where Catherine and Olga had been before. They waited for the light to signal to cross. Then finally the light signaled cross along with him in a crowd of people he had blended in with to not be suspected by the enemy.
When they got across the street the Apprentice was walking faster toward the two girls. Jake began to walk faster but with his right hand near pistol which was stuffed in his pocket. The crowds of people were all around him but he still kept his eye on the apprentice. They were only a house away from the girls the apprentice was definitely up to no good.
The apprentice was reaching into jacket about ready to pull out what he very well knew would end up being a gun. Jake now was only a few feet while this series events were occurring. Jake's heart was racing while he reached for his gun. The apprentice must had sensed him nearby because he ended up turning around facing right him with an Uzi. In a matter of seconds he leaped out harms way while the Apprentice was spraying out a trail of bullets where Jake had stood, he managed to get his gun out after making a fall to the ground and shot the threat down dead with 3 fast shots to the chest.
When the apprentice's body fell to the ground Catherine already had pulled out a gun of her own but their wasn't enough time to explain, he lowered his weapon and motioned her to follow him. "I'm not your enemy follow me." she could had shot him right there and then but she nodded with agreement and did as told with Olga following her. "So you with them?" Catherine asked while they were running away from the scene. Then before they knew it Jason in his car had pulled up on the side street for them to get in. Catherine was about to shoot but Jake stopped her. "Hes with us just get in." They rushed to each side of the car. Jason got into the passengers seat right next to Jason then drove off just in time to hear sirens in the distance. When Catherine saw Jason she had to look twice. "I think I've seen you some where before?"
Police cars were following them from behind. "Yeah I remember him he was the nice man who gave me money for the tip on the bus!" Olga squealed. Catherine thought for a moment then finally remembered "Oh yeah I remember you." The car swerved to left as Jason made a sharp turn "Yeah sorry I would love to chat but I got to lose the heat." Jake could see two cop car right on their tail. "Jason there is two of them right behind us."
"I know..." Jason grunted turning the car to the right passing up the restaurant. Jason was accelerating right past other car like he was in a NASCAR car race. Thank god there wasn't much traffic...
"Call Francis tell them we got the girls and we need help losing these cops!" Jason yelled nervously as he made a sharp turn around a car almost losing control. Catherine and Olga shrieked excitedly "You work with Francis!" Jason accidentally hit a speed bump which made them all bounce out of their seats. "Yeah we sure do."
Jake quickly dialed his number and as soon as he put the phone up to his ear Francis had already answered. "I know whats going on good jobs guys well be there soon." Jake held on to his seat just as they made another sharp turn that could turn anyone's stomach over. Jake sighed in relief "Oh thank god... thanks Francis but how did you know?" Francis started laughing "Ron and Natalie heard the shots since they were only a few blocks away from you guys they should be there any second good luck." Jake hung up and his put phone away.
"Wait I think I see..." Jason was looking from out from the rear view mirror "Yeah that must be them." Jake looked back to see his and Natalie's car pull up right next to the cop car. Natalie was driving the car and Ron was sitting in the passengers seat. Then Ron opened up his door and activated his SH with a wave of his hand over his eyes... oh man what was he up to. Ron jumped out of the car right to the next one landing on top of the hood.
One of the cops must had forgotten that the windshield was bullet proof because he tired shooting through it which didn't do much. Ron only smiled and punched right through the window with super strength right in the drivers face. The car swerved out of control but Ron was able to jump right to the next car before it crashed into an upcoming building. The other car Ron had landed on made an attempt to shake him of the side of the car but that didn't work well Ron clung on with no problem
Ron ripped off the car door where the driver was. The look on the police officers was sure a sight to see. Ron grabbed him by the collar but before he threw him out the other police tried to shoot Ron but he used the cop s body as a shield to block the bullets, the officer realized it was no good but Ron didn't give him enough time to react so instead of throwing him out of the car he threw the life less cop at the other one. Ron quickly jumped back to the car Natalie was driving and took off while the cop car lost control and flipped over violently rolling on the road tiles like a carousel. The cars pain finally ended when it crashed right into a gas station and engulfed into flames.
"Looks like he got barbecued." Jake mumbled. Natalie pulled behind their car and honked. Jason honked back "Damn Ron sure knows to make a mess out of any situation." Jake laughed "Oh I think your right about that one." Catherine thought it was funny too "Yeah that's definitely Ron."
