[COLOR=darkblue][i]Back at the apartment complex, Charlie and Artoni engage Cyo...[/i]
Artoni: I really wish we had some backup...
Charlie: *Aims launcher* No choice!
Cyo: *Disappears*
Artoni: Huh?
Charlie: Forget him we're getting out of here! *Blasts a crater through the hall window*
[i]Charlie sweeps Artoni off her feet and jumps down, 4 stories below, landing with a crunch...[/i]
Artoni: *Jumps off Charlie's arms*
Charlie: :D
Artoni: *Slap*
Charlie: :(
Artoni: Don't do that...
Charlie: Sorry...*Looks down at puddle and notices the blue energy field in the sky.*
Artoni: Look! Isn't that Valik?!
[i]They see the blue figure moving higher and higher up in the absolute center of Meteo City...[/i]
Charlie: *Starts up his bike* Let's go!
Artoni: *Hops on* Right!
[i]They speed off towards the location of Valik and the closed vortex...[/i][/COLOR]
