The group arrives at a abandoned factory in the nearby town of Clampton. The factory is heavily isolated from any nearby neighborhoods and appears to have been untouched for years. They park the vehicles near a group of already wrecked and abadoned cars in the yard.

???Sad [https://www.royalroadcdn.com/public/smilies/sad.png]handing spray can and a crow bar to Karl): Here take these and trash the car you came here in we cannot risk anyone recognizing the vehicle. (He ripps of the license plate hiding it under the car)

Karl: All right is all this really needed thou. (Karl lays Amada on the ground then he takes a siwng to the cars vehicles windows)

???: Unfortunatly this still is not enough . I have no idea how to block the satelitte signal the car is emitting, we only have a few hours to stay here before more of those men show up.(He hangs his head down.) I was to careless.(he hits his fist on a vandalized car)

Karl:Listen it will be okay I mean I tore out the G.P.S and internet sysstem while you were hardwiring the car, so please calm down don't worry about it.

???: Thank you. Idont know how to think you enough all the work I put into this was almost completly taken away.

Karl: It's okay with out you would have never made it out of that wharehouse, and Amanda would probably be dead. You also would never haveneeded to steal the car if it was not for us. Listen lets get inside befor anyone sees us.

???: This guy was able to keep his senses about him without even hesitating. He thought about taking out anything that could track us while careing for Ms. Starnes. He has some potential.

They head in with the masked man taking the lead disarming some traps and activating a genrator for the lights and equipment to come on. Karl carries Amanda in then closes the door completly dumbfounded by what he sees.

???: You can put Ms. Starnes down on that couch I will get to her in a second.( He takes hsi horrifying mask off revealing a face completly covered in bandages.) All right let me take a look at her condition.

Karl: If I may ask how did you come about all this stuff

???: (He hesitates before deciding to tell him, while checking Amanda's condition) I had been tracking the movements and actions of a certain gang terroizing this town. Everytime I would show up to stop a drug dealer or a gun runner i would find some stange messages and equipment at their hideouts. Each time I stopped somebody In Clampton I would just dive deeper into the realization that some big group ahd been responsible for all their strife. This group from my investigation had government ties and even access to technolgy I had never even heard of. I just recently pieced it together that they ere using the shipyards to bring in all the drugs and goods to Clampton. Now if i may ask why were you there to help the doctor..(Clenching a triiger to a gun hidden under his sleeve.)

Karl: Well unlike you I had not been tracking these guys. I had just been working with professor Starnes on a space-time project which apparently lad to her being abducted.

???: The project what was it about.(He is checking amndas eyes looking for anything strange noticing some strange blotches in her retina)

Karl: We were woeking on moving objects through space and time by manipulating the dimensions in which they exist in this reality.( holding and object is his hand)

???: Was their any success(noting down Amanda's conditon on a list full others on a nearby clipboard)

Karl: As a matter of fact there was( he puts on his mask and makes the object in his hand vanish and appear forty feet away knocking over a chair then returning to his hand.)

???: (he looks suprised at the results) Damn I thought I imagined that back at the wharehouse. I see you two had some positive results)

KarlSad [https://www.royalroadcdn.com/public/smilies/sad.png]looking ashamed) Well i had some results i was working on my own version of the project while I was woring with Professor Starnes. I was going to go suprise her with my breakthrough when they took her.

The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

???: I wonder why did they take her and not you.(Clenching the gun in his sleeve even tighter)

KarlSad [https://www.royalroadcdn.com/public/smilies/sad.png]taking off the targeting mask) Well I was never offically listed on as helping with the project I was just helping her while I was doing my own private research.(He lowers his head) I was just riding off of her coattails.

???: (He unclenches the gun) From what you have told me you did what you did with your own hard work and had no intentions of stealing her work so relax.

Karl: (He looks happier) Thank you, I think we should formally introduce ourselves I am Karl Blanch. 

???: (Raising up from Amanda's side) It is best you don't know my name. It will be easier for you and me if little about me is known through these next two days. 

Karl: I understand but I think i can be of some help to you if you let me. I think I can help you with these people. 

???Sad [https://www.royalroadcdn.com/public/smilies/sad.png]looks at him with extreme intensity) I doubt you realize how powerful these men are, or how easily they can wreak a persons life. Just come take a look at your friend over here. 

Karl: what is wrong? Amanda say something to me. 

Amanda: Hello who are you how do you know my name and how did  I get here. 

Karl: Amanda what are you talking about. We have been working together for over a year on the space-time project. 

Amanda: I do not know who you are and the space-time project just recently got apporved.Now you are going to tell me where I am or I am going to scream. 

The masked man jumps and sprays her with something that knocks her out. Karl gets mad ad attacks him. THe masks man grabs his arm an pins him to the ground. 

???: Listen I had to do it because in a few minutes she is going to get very hard to handle. 

Karl: What are you talking about? Get off of me and fix this. 

???: Listen I know this is hard to hear but the syrum they use that affects the brains chemistry. It makes the person follw any order they are given, and it also causes the person to lose more and more memories the longer they go without it. 

THe mask man lets Karl get up.

KarlVery Happy [https://www.royalroadcdn.com/public/smilies/biggrin.png]oes this mean that unless she gets some more of that syrum she will be reduced to a child. 

???: Yes, I have seen the same affects from prostitues that work the streets here. Apparently drug dealers get a supply from the organization then they sell it to pimps and human traffickers that give it to their girls. 

Karl: (breaks down crying) Is their any way we can saveher before she loses all her memories. 

???: Don't panic the syringe I grabed had some syrum in it. I think I can break the syrum down and find a cure if you give me a little time. The only problem I am going to need at least three days to do it. 

Karl: How many memories will she lose in that amount of time? 

???Sad [https://www.royalroadcdn.com/public/smilies/sad.png]hesitates): She will lose about six years in that time. 

KarlSad [https://www.royalroadcdn.com/public/smilies/sad.png]crying) Is there any way we can fix it sooner

???: If I can get more data about them faster I might be able to make a cure faster. 

Karl: Okay, how can I help you. 

???: You can't you just need to lay low, because the have probably already worked out a connection between the two of you and figured out it was you at the warehouse. 

Karl: I just can'tt let this happen to Amanda or allow them to keep doing what they are doing. So like it or not I am helping you.

???: (annoyed) Alright I guess you can help look through the video I took on this camera to see if there is anything useful on here. 

Karl: Okay, partner lets get work. (jumps up in an excited manner) 

???: I am not your partner. ( He plays the video look for anything of use)

Karl: Wait look there there is a document in the corner their next to that guy. 

The masked man zooms in. The document says target Issac wells expert in computer science, occupation:hacker

Karl: wait i have heard of this guy he is the guy who hacked into the pentagon just to get a look at some new plane models. He i so good he actually got away with it since there was no digital foot print at all. 

???: Then how did they know it was him.

Karl: Because he kept talking hypothetically on a message board about what the new planes may look like. 

??? So the organization is after him for some reason. You say this guy is really good. 

Karl: Yeah there is no one I know of who could beat him with computers. 

???: I wonder. 

Karl: Whats wrong. 

??? I think I got an answer to yours and Amanda's problems. 

Karl: Really what is it. 

???: we are going to kidnap Issac Wells befor they can. 

Karl: What? 

???: You wanted to help now lets get to making a plan. 

Karl: Listen I know I have no right but can I please know your name.

???: It is Jacke Jones.(He worries in fear) 

Karl: It is great to meet you Jacke. I think this is the begining of a good partnership. 

Jackie: This is not a partnership.(why did I give him my name) 

Jackie: Lets hurry up and find  Issac befor they do.
