Plan B


An additional six sentence chapter of Clark and my serial ‘…of Heroes and the Misunderstood‘, featuring Rue DeNite, Rocco and…

All previous parts can be found here.


What the hell has she gotten herself into… missiles… helicopters… armed personnel?

Bubblegum, it’s Moonbeam why did I say that, she knows it’s me – I must be confused from the strike – I’m OK, things have gone a bit awry, that’s all… listen, I’m going to break the remote link for a while, I’ll be back in touch soon.

There, best not to give her chance to reply… hang on, we haven’t moved that far along the road… my Maybach is between us and that ridiculous missile launcher, that would give us a better chance of escape.

I’ll use my dark matter on the van’s back doors – I really love my powers even if I do say so myself – so Rue can get the others out and I’ll make a run for it… this heavy rain may just be working in our favourI hope.

I’m not going anywhere, just hang tight… she’s not very trusting, that Rue, is she, ‘where are you going’ … she’ll understand in a few seconds, as long as I can keep dodging their bullets… they aren’t really great shots, are they?

Made it… start… start…. start….. START… yes… they’ve realised what I’m doing… good of the pilot to light my way for me… oops, sorry beetle owner, but needs must… QUICK… JUMP IN AND HOLD ON… we have a helicopter to outrun!

    Like the 1st Person POV
    there’s a certain, …not casual… more, familiar a tone to the narrative.
    cool

    It seems that Moonbeam’s dark matter is more effective than their bullets.

      It is quite powerful, Frank.
