Chapter 7
We jumped down from the roof onto an RV, which we jumped down that, too. A vicious dog growled, barked, and charged. Sara intercepted it, and spoke to it. "She has the ability to communicate with animals." I said. He nodded. "Let's go." She said. We raced past him.
We jumped into the taxi. We drove away. "There's too many of them to outrun!" Jack said. Sara exploded one of the vans, then another. "Whateveri you're doing, keep doing it!" Jack said. She exploded another one. She made the taxi stop. Then she opened her door. "Not now, not no- Sara? Are you doing this?" Jack exclaimed. Junkyard hopped in. Sara shut her door. The dog sat, and we petted him. "Oh, no! I am DONE picking up stray passengers! Absol-" he began. A gunshot sounded, hitting our cab. He drove off.
"Those guys that were chasing us, they were the same ones front the high way, right?" he asked. "Yes." I said. "It is vital that you take us to their base of operation." Seth said. "You want me to take you to the guys who are trying to kill you?!" Jack exclaimed. We nodded. "Let me explain to you how we do things here ON EARTH. People who want you dead, you avoid. That way you.... STAY ALIVE!" He said. "Make sense?" he finished. "No one on your planet will 'stay alive' if we do not return to our planet." Seth said. "In order to return, we need our ship. Those men who are trying to kill us have stolen our ship." He cocked his head. "Make sense?" Seth finished. Jack turned to look at Seth, who was staring his down angrily.
"Where do you suggest we begin our search?" Sara asked. "I don't suggest that we begin searching at all. I do suggest that we go back to Vegas and I drop you off where you got on."
