Man, I thought it was bad before, but things had suddenly taken a turn for the worse. One minute I am standing there yelling at the Landons, the next I am in some dungeon lair thing tied to a pole.
"who are you guys and what do you want with me?" I yelled at the kids who were playing poker on the other side of the room. One of them just laughed and then turned into my father, "come on son, aren't you having fun?" That was freaky.
Before I could answer, some red headed nerd boy came into the room, "I've got a new job for you. Jared is trying to take our hostage (MB) to his base. We need to follow them and see where they're going."
"Can I go too?" I asked, it sounded like fun, anything sounded better than being tied to a pole.
"Well, just this once. But you have to promise you won't run away." he smirked.
"yeah sure, I promise." I said slyly. He apparently had forgotten my dad had already taken my power.
We all gathered in a circle and held one another's hands as some punk kid teleported us to where MB and Mike were. They saw us right away and started running. Suddenly they were swept up in a gust of wind and carried to a nearby building.
"follow them!" Alex shrieked.
In a second we were on top of the building next to them. "Go on!" he commanded.
"I--I can't. Alex, I'm too weak."
"Yes you are! Why do I even put up with you?" he barked. "I guess I'll just have to make a bridge with all this scrap wood here."
As he started whirling things about with his mind, I noticed something approaching from the sky, rather quickly. "What is that?"
"What?" he grumbled, then looking up, "what the he--?"
He stopped, and all the wood fell to the alley below. "Curses!" We all stared in awe as the strange ship landed on the building. "I come in peace." it bellowed, "where is Jared?"
"Jared?" Alex said curiously "a relative of yours? Come on, we've no time to waste!" he grabbed the one remaining plank and straddled it across the two buildings. We all reluctantly followed him on the shaking bridge trying not to look down at our imminent death below. Just as we had made it to the other side, the Jared climbed in the robot's shin and they flew off into the sky.
"CURSE YOU JARED!" Alex shouted into the sky.
We decided to take the stairs and return to base. It took a long time to walk back, I was very tempted to desert them, but I wanted to wait for the right opportunity. Before going back to base, they decided to stop for some pizza. As we were waiting, someone called in a large order
"7 large pizzas?" Alex grinned evilly, "let's just wait and see who it is."
So we waited outside the pizza parlor (for what seemed like a couple of hours) behind some bushes so the buyer wouldn't see us.
"Mike?" the punk kid said when he saw who was buying all those pizzas.
"Of course!" Alex said, "get over there and give our little Rainbow a message."
That was it, I couldn't stand here and let him do anything to her! I took the opportunity to get away. I crept into the trunk of the car unnoticed.
We drove for a very long time before stopping where I started, the warehouse. "interesting." I thought to myself. I followed close behind as they all went into a tunnel and then to my surprise, they walked through a wall. "great, now what can I do?" I tried to find the secret opening for a while, but eventually just sat down and waited until someone came back out. I just hoped it wouldn't be too long, I was sure hungry and that pizza smelled great.
