Zinc's Dark Days

Night 17: Like a Day-off

***** PREVIOUSLY *****

"HALT!", a man said as a bigger ship stopped in front of the group.

SAN got his binoculars and checked and said:

"Gab... And Blake."

***** PRESENT TIME *****

"Sir... It's them. Gab and Blake.", SAN said.

"WE ARE HERE TO GET HIM! JAZZ!", Blake shouted down.

"Sir, I think Jazz convinced the two to join him. What should we do? We could get killed right now if we don't do what they say.", Marc said.

"We could get crushed because they have a bigger ship than us.", JC said.

"They might have a bigger ship, but we have a faster boat.", Sir Richard responded.

"Jazz is crucial to us. We need to arrest him and he needs to receive mental help.", Sir Richard added.

"If we do that, even Gab and Blake could forget about all of this, because Jazz is their leader, and their morale would go down if their leader convinces them to be good again.", Sir Richard added once again.

"So sir, what do we do now?", Day asked.

"We escape, without losing anyone. I don't think they have a lot of firepower, so we will beat them by speed.", Sir Richard said, as he started the rotor.

"Everyone, hold on tight, we'll be going in full speed.", Sir Richard said.

"LET'S GO!", Sir Richard shouted.

As soon as they began to go, Gab and Blake were shocked, so they turned around their ship, as the group was going around them.

"HOLD ON TIGHT!", Sir Richard said as their boat was going at full speed. They were trying to escape and arrive at the nearest land.

"Alright, I see some kind of land.", Sir Richard said.

Sir Richard continued, "We'll be going home in n-"

*BOOM*

The sound of a large explosion was heard.

Some kind of artillery hit the group's boat, and luckily, it hit the back part of the boat, which was empty, so no one was directly hit. Although, the group was propelled off the boat because of the impact. The boat was completely wrecked, as the group was on the water... dead.

"They're dead.", Gab said as he looked down.

"Jazz and JC are the only ones we need.", Blake said.

Gab and Blake went down their ship and swam near Jazz and JC, who were kinda separated from the others. They pulled them back to their ship, and held JC captive.

As soon as they got back, Gab looked down and said, "They're dead?"

"Probably. Let's go back!", Blake said.

The ship went to the cave, which is The Man's lab.

"EVERYONE GET UP!", Sir Richard said as he was trying to stay above water.

***** FLASHBACK (AWHILE AGO) *****

"Listen. You see that artillery? We'll get hit by that with no doubt. But due to your speed, it'll be hard for them to hit us, therefore, they'll just hit the back side of our boat. The boat will get wrecked, then we'll get propelled out. By then, we'll have to float on our stomachs, so we'll pretend to be dead.", Sir Richard said.
