Chapter 7: The Black Sword Saga Part Two: Launch the Rescue

Jack sped across the snowy land following the Miyamoto’s kidnapers.

“There they are!” he exclaimed as he caught site of two black snowmobiles, one of whom had a still, struggling Miyamoto over one of the men's shoulders.

The black sword agent with out Miyamoto looked back to see Jack approaching fast.

“Maybe we should dumb the girl! his partner is gaining on us” the yelled to his comrade.

“PUT ME DOWN YOU JERKS!” Miyamoto screamed in the first mans ear.

“are you crazy Max, Drake will flay us alive if we screw this up”

Jack smiled as ever so slowly he got closer and closer.

Miyamoto realized the man and ropes binding her wrists and feet were to strong to break free of even if she could she would fall of the snowmobile. “Jack hurry please” she thought to herself

“I’ve got it Braxis” laughed the second man.

“What Max”

“This!” the sword agent threw a pokeball behind him and out popped a Electrode.

“Electrode” shouted the angry pokemon as it charged up.

Jack’s eyes widened “or crap” he screamed. “NOOOOOOOO” Miyamoto screamed threw the gag as she watched Jack try to swerve out of the way, but it was no good the Electrode self-destruct, causing a massive explosion.

“Ha that took care of him” the two men laughed as they sped away.

“Jack no.....” the young rocket sobbed, as she watched her partner disappear.

Jack awoke on his back with a splitting head ache, “where am I?” he question. He appeared to be in a small bedroom of some kind. He remembered what happened “Miya I have to save her!” his mind screamed, he quickly tried to sit up but was struck with a stabbing pain in his side. He looked down to see his chest was bandages.

“You had quite accident back there young man you shouldn’t try to exert yourself” said a male voice from the other side of the room. Jack turned to see a teen about his age.

“How did i get here?” Jack asked.

The man walked over to him and sat down on a chair next to the bed.

“I was out for a walk and found you, at first I thought you were dead but you just have some broken ribs.

“Why didn’t you call a doctor?” Jack asked.

“I did but with all this snow they can’t get a ambulance up here so the local doctor made a house call”

“How long have I been out”

“about a day”

Jacks gasped and clenched his chest.

“I have to go now” Jack yelled and managed to sit up despite the pain.

“woe there dude your really banged up you need to rest” he said trying to get the wounded Jack to lay back down.

Jack pushed his hand away.

“You don’t understand my friend his in danger I have to save her” Jack yelled as he got up.

“What kind of danger?”

“She was kidnaped by the two men claiming to be from the Black Sword” Jack said simply. He got up and walked over to his shirt and jacket and put them on.

“Wait call the police they can help”

“They know officer Jenny was there when I...” Jack paused “borrowed her snowmobile to chase after them”

The teen went to block the door. “Look your injured obviously by them, they sound like dangerous criminals you could get hurt even worse!”

Jack pushed him out of the way. “Listen to ME! my best friend is in grave danger, I’m thankful what you’ve done to help but I won’t allow you are anyone else to interfere I’m going NOW” Jack opened the door and went left. “Exits to the right” the man said.

“Listen at lest tell me your name?”

“Jack”

“I’m Slate”

Jack put on his boots and opened the door out to the snowy land outside.

“Here take this it will keep you warm” Slate said offering a heavy winter Jacket.

“Thank you” Jack smiled.

Jack put it one and zipped it up. It was a red and black jacket and quite warm.

“This friend your going to rescue he must be really special” Slate said leaning against the wall.

“She” Jack corrected as he tied his boots.

“OH I see now” Slate smiled and nodded.

“Its not like that” Jack snapped.

“uh huh sure”

“can I use your phone, there is someone I could call for help?” Jack asked.

“Sure” slate responded ushering Jack to the vid phone.

Jack knew only one number to dial Madam Boss.

“JACK!, you were supposed to call in yesterday what happened!” the boss demanded.

“Me and Miya.. we were attacked” Jack choked.

“By whom?” the boss question, not accepting Jacks story so far.

“Two men clamming to be part of a group called the Black sword, they took her... Miya I.. I tried going after them but there was a explosion and and they got away” Jack cried.

The boss was silent for a moment.

“don’t worry Jack will get her back, get to the sunshine lodge its should be close to your mission area, the rest of us will meet you there” Jack nodded and hung up the phone.

“see ya Slate it was nice meeting you”

Jack arrived at the lodge and could see the rest of the team waiting even Madam Boss.

“Jack!” what took you so long Alex asked.

“we’ve been her almost an hour” Kiki

“and poor Miya is being held hostage!” cried Tiffany.

Brian punched Jack in the ribs. “That's for making us wait stupid”

Jack lunched over in pain.

“Come on I didn’t hit your that hard did I?”

“Watch the ribs two of them are broken now come one we have to find her before its to late”

Jack sat down on the couch with the rest of them

“Not to worry Jack” Kiki said.

Alex held up a small gadget with a few buttons and a blank screen.

“For you see Kiki and I have a tracking device!”

Jack glared at him. “that would be useful execpt.... WE DON’T HAVE A TRACER ON MIYAMOTO!”

“yeah we do Jack you all have one” the boss said calmly.

Jack turned his head. “what!?”

“each of you has a tracking device under your skin with that thing in Alex’s hand we can zero in on any of you”

Alex turned it on. “See look each not is one of us and the that letter’s next to each says who it is” and with this switch we can increase the range if she’s with in 20 miles it will pick her up, here I have one for each of you and a communicator” he said before passing one out for each of them.

“now we have snowmobiles parked outside so we can leave anytime” the boss said. Jack stood up and headed for the door. “Jack no, your injured leave this to the rest of us” the boss demanded.

“No” Jack said coldly. the others gasped no body, every said no to the boss.

The boss’s face darkened, “What do you mean NO!” she demanded.

“I mean I’m going out to look for her I saw what direction they were headed last!” Jack yelled.

“Jack just tell us what you know and will take care of it, we can’t risk you getting hurt any worse!” Kiki pleaded.

“I’m sorry but I have to go, I can’t just sit by and do nothing” with that Jack snatched grabbed a set of keys from Brian and left. They rest sat wide eyes as they heard they heard the sound of a engine starting and driving away.

“Oh I wish I had a boyfriend who was so heroic” Kiki cooed.

“That would be wonderful” Tiffany smiled blissfully.

^“Its not like that”^ Jacks voice came from over the radio.

Jack winced in pain from his ribs throbing. After about a hours ride Miya appeared on the Rocket Radar. “Don’t worry Miya I’m coming”
