Hawaii, Here we Come Chapter 7
Iggy POV
"Say that again."
"Your clone came in here, beat me up, and kidnapped your wife." I am so not in the mood for this. Oh, he's going to get it. Suddenly my cell phone rang. My phone said it was an unknown caller.
"Hello." I said.
"Iggy, don't do it! It's a trap!" Ella yelled. If it was any other time, I would have laughed at the Star Wars reference, but this wasn't any other time. I was about to answer when my clone started talking.
"Like you didn't already know that. As you already know I have your wife. She's looking quite good if I do say so. But that can always change."
"If you touch one hair on her, I swear to God I will kill you in the most painful way I can think of."
"Oh, there's no need for that now. All you need to do is come to the pier on the other side of the island tomorrow morning at 8. Come alone or your wife dies. We'll discuss my terms then."
Like he said, I knew it was a trap. So, obviously, I needed to trap him back. I turned to the general.
"That was him." I said.
"What does he want?"
"He wants me to meet him tomorrow morning at 8 on a pier on the other side of the island."
"You know that's probably a trap, right?" Was everyone being obvious today?
"Yeah, but I think I have a plan. I need you to let some more of my friends in here."
Ratchet POV
I was lying on the beach with Kate when I heard my cell phone ring. I turned my headphones down a notch and answered it.
"Hey Ig, how's it hangin'?"
"Not good man. My clone kidnapped Ella. I need you two to get down to the navy base as fast you can."
"Be there in a flash." I hung up my phone and ran over to where Kate was buying some food. "We got to get to the navy base now! Iggy needs our help."
"Just when I thought we were done with this stuff. Let's go."
Iggy POV
Ratchet and Kate were there in about two hours. I introduced them to the general and told him what they could do. We all gathered back in the general's office so I could go over my plan.
"Okay, first off, Ratchet. I remember you saying once you learned to use a sniper rifle when you were in your gang. What's your range?"
"I could no scope someone from five miles away, at night, with my sunglasses on." He said confidently.
"Good. Now general, are there any buildings within a five mile radius of that pier that would give him a clear shot?"
"Let me look." I heard typing. "There's one that's six miles away."
"I can probably do that." Ratchet said.
"What am I going to do?" Kate asked.
"Well, since we're just going to tranq him. You'll be out of sight until he goes down and you'll restrain him when he wakes up."
"Figures."
"Well, what else are we going to need super strength for?"
"Good point."
"All I have to say is, we have one shot at this, so try your hardest. That's all we can do."
"We're all in man." Ratchet said.
"Ditto." Kate added.
"I'm so not sleeping tonight."
Ella POV
I woke up again in another place I didn't recognize. I was tied up to a large wooden support beam. It looked like I was at the beach under a pier. I looked down at my feet and I saw a bomb.
"It's nuclear, you know." The clone said.
"You're insane, you know that?"
"Flattery will get you nowhere my dear." He said putting his hand on my chin. I jerked my head away.
"You won't get away with this." I felt kinda cliché saying that, but it's all I could come up with.
"That's what you think. Oh look, here he comes."
Iggy POV
I got to the pier right on time. I had Ratchet on an untraceable comm link in my ear.
"What, didn't want to show up fashionably late?" The clone said.
"Where's my wife?" I asked acidly.
"Oh, she's right over there. Too bad I'm in the way. Oh, and to put more pressure on you, there's a nuclear bomb set to go off in 10 minutes." Oh crap. I predicted that he would open with a left cross, because that's what I usually do. I was right and caught his hand. I then landed a hard right uppercut to his stomach. Then I twisted his arm around and threw him to the ground.
"You need to get him out in the open so I can shoot him." Ratchet said in my ear. "Make him back you up." I took a step back and let him get up.
"Come on, if you're so much better than me, why aren't you winning." See, I used to have a short temper before I met Ella, so I knew that would get him. He charged toward me and I let him tackle me.
"I'll show you who's better!" He yelled as he was on top of me. But before he could land a hit, he collapsed.
"Nice shot, Ratchet." I said as I got his limp body off me and ran towards where Ella was.
"There's only two minutes left!" Ella said. This was going to be close. I felt the bomb up. I couldn't believe my incredible luck. The bomb was exactly the same as the one me and Gazzy used to escape the Erasers in that cabin. I started working on it and was about to disarm it when I noticed something different. "Why'd you stop?" Ella asked.
"I think it's another trap. If I disarm it, that's when it's going to go off. Ella, you're going to have to trust me, but I can't disarm it."
"I have complete faith in you Iggy. Always have and always will."
"Okay, but if we don't get through this, I just want you to know that I love you. You are the greatest thing that has ever happened to me and if these are our last seconds, I couldn't think of a better way to spend them." And I kissed her as passionately as I could.
Ella POV
Well I think it's kinda obvious what happened since I'm saying this right now. Iggy was right, it was a trap and the bomb didn't go off. We made sure the clone was put in custody with the navy before we left. We got back to the hotel, but before we could say anything, Max called me on my cell phone.
"Hey Max, what's up?"
"Just checking in on you guys. How's it going?"
"Oh, you know, clones, kidnapping, a plot to blow up the island. Same old, same old."
"Ha, nice one. But really, what have you been doing?" I wasn't going to tell her the whole story until the baby was born.
"Just relaxing on the beach and stuff. We might go swimming with sharks tomorrow."
"That sounds like fun. Well, tell Iggy I said hi, and you two have fun."
"Thanks Max, bye."
"Bye." I hung up the phone.
"Who was that?" Iggy asked.
"Max. She says hi." Then there was silence for a while until Iggy spoke up.
"Well, we're going to have some story to tell our kids about our honeymoon when they ask."
"You said it." Iggy came closer to me.
"You know, I meant all those things I said before."
"I know." I said with a smile. "I think the same things about you. I'm also glad I have you to protect me."
"Hey, I made a promise to your dad before he died that I would, and as you know, I'm a birdman of his word." I laughed at that. Then I looked at Iggy's eyes and saw all the feeling they had in them. I reached up and kissed him sending those feelings back. A girl could get used to this.
A/N- Wow this went by fast. Anyway, if you want a continuation of the story go read What are We Going to Name it? My next story will be Freaky Fangday and it will have no connection with any of my other stories. I plan to start posting it Monday. 68 days until Nevermore. Fly on, prosper, and may the odds be ever in your favor.
