Chapter Six

Violet's Distress

Violet roused to awakening, and tried to get a bearing on where she was. She was in a totally new place, and she could not see anything but machinery, and hear nothing but said machinery humming. Violet was in a device that held her in an antigravity like state. She tried to create a force field or turn invisible, but neither of them worked. It seemed that this device made her powers dormant. Violet could do nothing to get out of this thing. Suddenly, the sound of a metal door sliding open startled her, and she looked to see who had come in. It was a man in a grey and black morph suit.

"Violet," he said to her, "I hope you are comfortable." As little as she wanted to admit it, she WAS.

"I have something to show you." The figure reached for his mask, and he pulled it off. Recognition happened instantly,

"TONY?!" Violet couldn't believe what her eyes were trying to show her.

"Yes," said Tony, "and I am deeply sorry for cheating on you. I think we can make a great couple. If you say yes, I will release both you and your family." Violet was mad now,

"What kind of girl do you take me for?" she demanded, "Need I remind you that it was YOU who find other girls behind MY back? I don't want to date that kind of man. If you want me to be your girl again, you'll be disappointed. Besides, I have someone else to love." Tony could not believe this, Violet was rejecting him,

"Who is this other guy?" demanded Tony,

"Like I'll tell you," said Violet, "If I tell you, you'll just kill him. I will never tell you who I love."

"No matter," said Tony, "I will learn who it is soon enough. I have ways of making you talk. I will leave you for now. I will see you in the morning." Tony put his mask back on, and left. Violet was surprised at how easy it was to go to sleep.

Meanwhile, Miles above the Atlantic ocean, Chance was lying down. His car had been put on Auto Pilot, and if something were to happen, a loud alarm would wake Chance. He was exhausted from today's happenings. It felt like all of that stuff happened days ago, when it was merely a few hours. Chance's eyes were very heavy. As little was he wanted to sleep, he would need the energy to save Mrs. Incredible. Finally, he nodded off.

Chance felt like he was flying, not in the car, merely gaining altitude. Violet also felt this. Both of them found themselves on a cloud, miles above the earth. When Chance saw Violet, he called to her. They raced forward, and into each other's arms.

"Chance," said Violet, "I'm really scared, I don't know what I'm going to do."

"You don't have to be scared," said Chance, "I will save you and your family, come hell or high water. Second Sight won't be keeping you much longer, I promise."

"I hope you're right." Said Violet.

"And when I do," said Chance, "I hope your Dad will be okay with us."

"I hope for that too." Said Violet. Both of them felt a tug, this dream was ending. Before they left, their lips locked together, and they shared a brief but loving kiss.

Chance woke up, and he was heading for Asia. He parked his car on top of an abandoned building, and got out. It was time to find Mrs. Incredible. He decided to take a look and find some of Second Sight's goons. Maybe they would know where she was. He tried to make himself scarce, but being a tower of muscle, that was much easier said than done. He searched high and low, and finally, saw a man in a grey jumpsuit. This was one of them. Chance snuck up behind him and grabbed him around his neck, and held his mouth shut.

"If you tell me where Mrs. Incredible is," he said, "I will let you live." The man led Chance to an old, abandoned sewer system. As Chance took a few steps in, the man ran back out and hit a switch. A huge metal door slammed shut behind him. Chance cursed himself.

"A trap," he said, "I wonder if I really AM near Mrs. Incredible. Only one way to find out." Chance began to walk forward. Suddenly, a massive spiked boulder landed behind him, and began to roll towards him. Chance began running as fast as he could with a huge, muscular body. Surprisingly, Chance was out running the boulder. Chance then saw a wooden door. Chance dove onto the ledge with the door on it, as the boulder rolled safely under him. Chance tried to turn the door down, but it was locked. Chance threw his fist into the door, reducing it to splinters.

Behind the door, he saw who he needed to see: Mrs. Incredible. She was being stretched a lot. Chance figured that she was being held this way, so she could not un stretch herself. Chance got close and saw a device with what he assumed to be a release switch. But before Chance could pull it, a huge Robot landed in front of him. Chance put up his fists, as the Robot threw a right hook. Chance ducked to avoid it and slammed his fist into the robot's stomach.

The Robot slammed Chance over the head, but Chance was quick to recover and tripped the Robot. Chance ended the fight by smashing the robot's head. Chance was able to throw the switch and release Mrs. Incredible. The woman took a minute to return to normal shape, and then address Chance.

"Chance," she said, "thanks for the rescue. I am aware that if me or any of my family are caught in the lair, Violet will be killed."

"I have a chip in this glove," said Chance, "so I can mimic other supers' powers. I will need to touch you." He put his hand on Mrs. Incredible's shoulder, and then he felt a tingling feeling. She taught him how to stretch his body. They escaped the sewer. After Chance gave Mrs. Incredible a ride back to America, he learned from her that Dash was being held in Antarctica. Chance set his car to fly straight there.

Next chapter done. Sorry for the long wait. Hope this makes up for it.
