Blasted : Entry : LOG ENCRIPTION 6190765d299

by Sandcrab Rex Miller

Runeforce and Phaser piloted the Xplore Jet as Liliana, Rocket and I sat in passenger heading for Russia. Our mission: Locate and Rescue the Prince and Princess Michael. Offering everyone the HUD Link, only Rocket accepted. Late adopters vs early adopters, I wasn't surprised Rocket, a tech guy, understood it's usefulness. I had just finished the L-nanite injection in Rocket's head when I heard two metalic clink sounds and quickly tried to locate the source. Too late...
 
KA-BOOM! The jet was torn to pieces by an explosion!! Someone had successfully targeted the Xplore Jet. Someone had written a death warrant. I braced myself, wondering if anyone would survive? Suddenly the particles of the exploding jet slowed down, then pushed away, we were all floating downward. Held by some sort of force. We all seemed safe, except Runeforce, his body was limp. Gazing through him with my awareness his heart was still active, blood still pumping. Something strange though, I didn't notice at first and then it happened just before we hit the water, the energy that cradled us released us falling to the sea, it evaporated into Phaser and that is when I noticed Runeforce's runes were gone.
 
But there was no time to wonder, little time to think. My HUD came up with WARNINGS, multiple Drones were searching the area, we had to move and move fast. We acted quickly, Liliana created a platform with her mental powers, we got on top and Rocket acted as our prop. A few kilometers away we regrouped and reassessed. Phaser was acting strange and Runeforce needed medical attention. Rocket ran him back to base and was back post haste. We left the oil rig, reached France and opted for a slow but safe underground commute to the outskirts of town and we slipped into the safe house under the guise of our normal selves. A slight reaction from the others as they noted my age. Whatever. I am still in good shape for an old guy.
