Chapter 9: The Flames of Disaster Part 3

Wade is able to break free from his prison, but also begins to feel pain on his back.

"Ow," Wade replies, feeling the pain from his fist.

And turns back to see the limo has skid to a stop.

"Oh..." Wade says, and feels his back cracking, "Oh, my back, too," and groans in pain.

Soon, the limo opens and Jack steps out, shocked to see Wade managed to escape.

"How the devil did you get out?" Jack questions, "I should've reinforced the cage!"

"With my true strength," Wade says," and mutters, "Nothing?"

Then Wade declares, "Jack Sinclair, I challenge you to a duel. For my freedom, my honor, and that sweet leather jacket!"

"Finally, the day gets interesting. A duel it is,' Jack says, taking an interest.

And with that, Jack climbs up the limo to get something.

"Spry," Wade replies.

Jack then brings out two blades and is ready to use them.

"These blades were forged by Hattori Hanzo himself," Jack says, "The sharpest, strongest blades on Earth."

"Great!" Wade replies.

"Hiya!" Jack shouts and throws the other sword.

And with that, the sword lands next to wait.

"Oh, boy," Wade says, realizing there is trouble as he pulls out the sword.

Suddenly, Jack shouts, "Wade!"

And with that, Wade rides his motorcycle down the street as he shouts, " Kufafanua wakati!"

And soon, Jack comes to a stop.

"I suggest you find a ride," Jack says.

Wade calls out, "What?!"

From a distance, Jack calls out, "I said I suggest you find a ride!"

"Still didn't hear it," Wade calls out,

Jack calls out, "What?"

Wade calls out, "What?

"I can't hear you," Jack calls out.

Wade calls out, "I'm sorry, I'm not hearing you all that well!"

"I can hear part of it, but not all of it," Jack calls out.

"What?!" Wade calls out.

"You need a vehicle! In order to fight me," Jack calls out.

"Oh, okay! Got it!" Wade says.

However, Wade doesn't have a vehicle to use for the fight.

He then turns to a group of kids, "Hey. How you guys doing?" And approaches one of the kids, "That is one cool bike. Caught my eye. You think I could borrow it for a few seconds?"

"Sure. No problem," The kid says.

"Thanks," Wade says.

But then the kid says, "For 10 G's!"

Having no time for this, Wade gives the kid some money, ""Look, here's four bucks. I'm a deputy lieutenant sheriff. I would never do this ordinarily, but I am commandeering this vehicle," And takes the bike.

"Hey!" The kid shouts.

And with that, Wade climbs on the bike, rings the bell, and prepares himself for battle. With that, both Wade and Jack draw out their swords.

"Alright, Wade. You can do this. Just trust your true inner strength, "Wade says, feeling confident.

One of the kids suddenly shouts, ""You're gonna die, idiot!"

"That's not cool! You don't know!" Wade shouts back.

And for some reason, there's also some people at the intersection as well. One of them also fires a flare with the words, 'Go.' on it.

Jack turns the handle to start the engine, "Woohoo!"

And with that, Wade starts pedaling while Jack starts up his motorcycle. Then the two charge at each other. Jack and Wade bring out their blades and they both charge with battle cries. Wade then brings out the blade to Jack. When Jack ducks his head, Wade's blade ends up cutting Jack's ponytail clean off. That causes Jack to lose his balance, and skids to a stop as he falls off his bike.

Soon, Wade stops on his bike, "Looking for this?" And holds up Jack's hair.

Jack is not happy about it, "My locks. M-My beautiful locks. What have you done to me?"

"You're lucky I didn't do a whole lot more," Wade says.

Wade turns to the couple, "Hey, Mr. and Mrs. Barnes! You know, I'm sorry things got a little bit outta control back there."

"Finish him, Wade," Susie's mother says.

"With pleasure," Wade says, and climbs off the bike.

Wade approaches Jack and says, " I'm gonna need that jacket," having the sword towards him.

Jack then removes the jacket, and gives it to Wade.

"And the vest," Wade says.

"It... It's my favorite leather jerkin," Jack says.

"Leather what?" Wade questions, "I don... Just give it to me."

Jack has to do just that.

"And... the shirt. No, no. It's happening. Please... It's... Sorry. We were friends. We were best friends."

"Former best friends," Wade says.

Reluctantly, Jack ends up unbuttoning his shirt, "Don't look at me. Don't look at me..."

And Susie's mother covers her daughter's eyes in response.

Then Jack says, "Uh, do you know the third rarely referenced rule of bounty hunting?"

"Wha..." Wade questions.

"When faced with a worthy opponent, you run the hell away!" Jack says, and soon runs away as he screams, "Don't look at me! Don't look at me!"

Soon, Wade cheers,"I did it!" and holds up Jack's hair.

Soon, everyone cheers and claps for Wade's victory.

"You sure did, Wade!" A familiar voice calls out.

Wade turns to see a familiar black and red female hedgehog on the top of the tree.

"Eve?" How long have you been there?" Wade asks, surprised.

"Well, I got here when you busted out of the cage, and took on this guy with only a blade and bicycle," Eve says.

Wade chuckles, "Guess you were in time to see the action."

"Sure was. To be honest, I was rather worried about you so I wanted to check on you. Knuckles said I can't help you, but he didn't say I can't keep an eye on you," Eve says.

She then grins, "Turns out, you didn't really need our help at all."

"Yeah. I guess I really know how to be a warrior," Wade says.

"You sure did," Eve says.

Sometime later, in Wade's family neighborhood, everyone hears the sound of a motorcycle engine, and everyone looks to see Wade riding back home on Jack's motorcycle, wearing the jacket, vest, shirt, and Jack's hat.

Knuckles, Wanda, Wendy, and Jazz arrive on the front porch to see it. And Eve is the first to return home.

Seeing him, Wanda is surprised, "Is that... It can't be."

"It is," Knuckles says.

Soon, Wade returns home and parks the motorcycle on the front lawn of the house.

"Mother. Sister," Wade says.

And soon Wendy says, "Wade. Get off the grass."

"Yep," Wade says and does just that, "Yep, sorry." and gets the bike off the grass.

Wanda turns to Eve, "So, what happened?"

"Well, let's just say that Wade really learned how to become a warrior, and he didn't need my help at all," Eve says.

Wanda chuckles, "Hard to believe, but I'll take your word for it.

Seeing Wade has succeeded, Knuckles says, "He's ready."
