Chapter 3
The group was in the computer room looking at the map screens of the air force base.
ėThe Dark World Order is definitely up to this!î Indy said. ėI mean they totaled it, wrecked it!î
Goodsport! the first thing that came to Short Roundís mind.
ėSo whatíre we gonna do?î Shorty asked. ėGoodsport could possibly still be alive! Or escaped! We have to help him!î
ėDonít worry Short Round,î Michaelson assured. ėWeíll think of something.î

- - -

They all were in the briefing room. Micah paced around while Michaelson told everyone their assignments. A map in the showed the air force base on a huge computer screen. One of the many people sitting down were the Lambertís, Meg, Indy/Riggs, Ben(Friend of Indy), Aragorn, Short Round and Jerico.
ėYou all have been trained for situations like this.î Michaelson started. ėTheir army and such still seams to be there. You will parachute down there and use the war tactics that you were taught! Then as you are starting the diversion, we will get our tanks ready and by the time you been holding them off, the tanks would have arrived. Then you make a run for it and we will intercept you with a personal jet.
ėUh, General?î Shorty spoke up.
ėYes Mr. Round?î Michaelson replied.
ėI was wonderingņWhy donít we just bomb ëem?î Shorty asked.
ėWell,î The General replied. ėNumber one, weíre not the air force base. And number two, we donít want more incidents like the one that happened recently. Do you remember?î
ėYes sir.î Shorty said.
ėGood luck.î Micah assured.
ėAnd may the Force be with you.î Michaelson added.
Everyone looked at him and gave a chuckle as did Michaelson.
ėYouíll need it.î He said under his breath.

The Phoenix stealth jet went over the air force base. They were unable to see the titanic Dark World Order Drill Base. Short Round, The Lambertís, Meg, Aragorn, Indy, Ben, and Jerico jumped out of the jet. The other stealth jets came and dropped their troops. As soon as they were past the clouds, the jets pulled out.

- - -

ėLook,î Sauron said to Goodsport while staring out the window of the main tower in the Drill Base. ėYour friends coming to try and stop us. Iíd like to see that! They donít know the power of this base! And soon after we open up Nobodyís tomb and get the goodies he left behind we will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine!î
Goodsportís blood boiled. He angrily stared at Sauron who looked at him, wickedly laughing. Goodsport snapped and ran at Spaltic who just sat their and watched with amusement. Sauron put up his hand and Goodsport flew halfway across the room as an invisible force pushed him away.
ėYou will die!î Sauron said as he started to raise his hands.
He pointed them at Goodsport as if lightning was going to come out of them. From the palms of Sauron's hands, a huge and blinding ray of light shot towards Goodsport surged into his helpless body. He yelled in agony.

- - -

The tanks, infantry, and jets soared around the half-demolished air base of the Phoenix Group. The Drill Base wasnít far away.

Crawling on their hands and knees, the Phoenix Group moved their way to the bases. They noticed one of the tanks, which was the closest to them, was also a good choice for the first target!
ėIím going after that tank!î Indy demanded.
ėAre you crazy?î Meg exclaimed.
ėNo, just desperate to win this war.î Indy replied. ėItíd be a good advantage for us. You know, the old wooden horse trick.î
Indy got up and crept to the tank and gestured Ben to follow him.
ėHeís pretty brave though, Meg.î Shorty stated.
ėIím surprised he donít get himself killed.î Meg commented. ėIt wonít do us no good.î
Indy crawled up on the army tank easily and with agility. He shot at the hatch to attract the attention from the people inside the tank. As one came out, Indy shot him and then took him out. Indy jumped into the tank and sprayed it with bullets! He now had control of it!
ėHeís pretty good you have to admit.î Jerico commented.
Ben, after standing guard of the tank, was signaled by Indy to hop in. Ben was standing in the hatch ready to shoot the huge gun!

ėGood, now letís go!ņė Shorty said as the tank fired at one of the others!
ėThanks a lot Indy!î Shorty sarcastically said as they got up, ready for war.
Shorty seperated from Aragorn, The Lambertís, Meg, and Jerico. The infantry noticed him running and started to advance and fire! Shorty ran as fast as he could and ducked behind a large piece of cement that was blown off the air force base. He ran out from it and shot each one of them as they werenít expecting him to come out.

The Lambertís split up from Jerico, Meg, and Aragorn. They ran into the half-wrecked air force base. They ran down a corridor which they then found out was a dead endņOne of the domes that the Dark World Order raiders came in through were blocking the hallway. They ran to the entrance of it and noticed there was a ladder in the center of it leading to a hole in the middle. They crawled down it to see that they were in the entrance of a metal corridor.
ėThis is heavy duty!î James commented.
ėYou sound just like Short Round.î Brett teased.
James shot him a dirty look. They ran down the corridor all the way to a door. It had no handle.
ėStand back broí!î Brett warned.
As James stepped back, Brett riveted the side of the door with bullets! The door opened.
ėI see you still have it, broí.î James commented.
ėThanks.î Brett said as he led the way.

- - -

Jerico, Meg, and Aragorn ran through the battle field as bullets sprayed everywhere! Aragorn then fell to his knees!
ėMeg, wait!î Jerico yelled.
As she looked back she seen Aragorn on his knees and blood dripping from his leg.
Jerico and Meg ran to him and helped him up. Carrying him, they ran to the abandoned base for shelter. As they moved down the corridor they ran to a door and got in the room. Unluckily it was the janitorís closet.
ėI canít see a thing in here!î Jerico exclaimed.
ėOk, why donít we go back out there?î Meg sarcastically said.
Jerico was silent.

- - -

Goodsport was laying on the floor after Sauron had nearly fried him with energy. The place suddenly rocked like an earthquake hit them!

- - -

The barrel of the tank smoked after it fired at the Drill Base. Indy pointed the tank straight at the Drill Base.
ėBen! Jump out! Run!î He commanded.
As Ben jumped out to the top of the tank, troops seen him and started firing. He jumped over the other side as bullets started to hit the tank. Indy got out and more bullets riveted the tank. The tank was about to hit the Drill Base when Indy noticed it and jumped off as quickly as possible! It blew up on impact! Indy and Ben ran as fast as they could to avoid the flames!

- - -

In a corridor in the Drill Base they entered VIA the small corridor, the Lambertís fell to the ground as the place rocked as if hit by a missile or something big.
ėWhat was that?î James exclaimed.
ėI donít know,î Brett answered. ėBut whatever it is itís not good!î
troops started to run through the corridors of the Drill Base.
ėNot good.î Brett exclaimed.
James and Brett ran the other way as troops chased them. They rounded a corner. As the troops came around the corner, the Lambertís fired rapidly at them before they expected anything! The Lambertís grabbed the grenades strapped to their belts.
They ran down the corridor again.

- - -

Short Round ran as fast as he could to avoid gunfire! One of the troops on motorcycles came up beside him and knocked him to the ground just as he gotten up. The trooper was about to make another round when Shorty pointed up his rifle and shot the stooge! He ran to the motorcycle and got on it.

- - -

Get up a voice in Goodsportís head said to him.
ėI canít!î Goodsport was able to moan.
Yes you can. the voice repeated.
Goodsport suddenly felt more strength regained into him.
GANDALF! he thought.
Goodsport got to his feet.
ėThis canít be!î Sauron growled.
ėWell it is, old man!î Goodsport growled back.
Sauron put up his hands to strike Goodsport again. Goodsport made his move and jumped to the left to avoid being striked again. He got up and ran!

- - -

ėWe canít stay in here forever, Meg!î Jerico said.
ėWell what are we going to do when we get out?î She replied.
ėOk, youíre right.î Jerico admitted. ėAnd youíre my commander anyway.î

- - -

Ben and Indy ran as fast as they could, dodging bullets! They noticed many troops had missile launchers!
ėThis is where it gets scary, Ben!î Indy said.
ėYouíre not kidding!î Ben replied.
They heard the whistle of a missile coming closer from behind! They turned around to see one coming at them! They both jumped the opposite way as it went past them! It hit into a tank and blew up in a huge ball of fire! Ben and Indy were plummeted far by the blast!

- - -

Shorty rammed into troops on the motorcycle! One of the guys with the missile launchers fired at him. Going the speed he was, it hit the ground right behind him, making him plummet high off the motorcycle! He hit the ground hard!

- - -

James and Brett crept into one of the computer rooms.
ėWell look what we have here!î Brett said.
Being the computer hacker and professional he was, it amazed him to probably have control of the titanic base! They heard a racket of noise behind them.
ėJames, be quiet,î Brett demanded. ėI need concentration with these!î
He heard shooting. James rammed into him making both of them fall over the computer terminal! Troops sprayed bullets everywhere! It started to hit the computer terminal, making it blow up! James and Brett ran as it blew up near where they were! They slid on the floor to the other side of the room. Using an alcove for room, they returned shots back at the troops continuing the fire fight.

- - -

Goodsport ran down the corridors of the Drill Base not knowing where to turn next. Hearing troops come, he ducked into a room. It was the ammo room! He grabbed a machine gun when suddenly troops burst into the room.
ėPut the gun down now, scum!î The lead one commanded
Goodsport took time to turn around as he stuffed two pistols under his sleeves. He finally turned around.
Holding his hands up he decided now was the moment ņ He jerked his hands forward and the guns came out of his sleeves! He shot off each troop easily, one by one.
ėThanks for delaying my time boys.î He said.
Recovering the rifle, he ran out the room. He went down a few corridors and made a few turns when he made his way to a circular room with ten other doors. They had a caution strip on the door jams. One of the doors were open as if someone punctured it with bullets. He heard gunfire from one of the corridors he passed before and curiously ran to it. He seen it was coming from the computer room, and running to it, he took a peak inside. He seen troops firing at one of the alcoves on the other side of the room.
ėSurprise!î Goodsport said as he picked off each of the troops!
ėDonít shoot!î A voice yelled from the alcove. Out stepped the Lambertís!
ėBrett, James!î Goodsport yelled.
ėGoodsport!î They both said in unison.
ėGoodsport,î Brett said. ėI got an idea! I can set the place on a self-destruct mode and blow them up!î
Brett started fiddling around with one of the computers.

- - -

Shorty was on the ground, bloody and all. A vision appeared. Gandalf!
ėHelpÖ Gandalf!î Shorty helplessly begged.
The figure of Gandalf morphed into a darker character.
ėYou and your brother. You wimps of Valinor! I will have you soon!î Sauron said.
ėI donít have a brotherÖî Shorty moaned out.
ėOf course you do. Two in fact.î Sauron said. ėThe Lambertís are your brothers!î
ėNo!î Shorty tried to yell.
Sauron disappeared with a wicked laugh. A tear ran down Shortyís face.

- - -

ėOk, I got it!î Brett said. ėWe have half an hour!î
ėIsnít that too long?î James asked.
ėNo,î Brett replied. ėIt gives us enough time to run away from it. You're talking about a machine the size of the titanic almost!î
ėWell that does make sense.î James said.
ėCome on, letís go.î Brett said.
They ran down the corridor to the circular room and through the door Brett blasted before. Climbing up the ladder at the end of the tube-like corridor, they ran as fast as they could down the hall.

- - -

ėBrett, James!î a voice boomed. ėThis way!î
Meg and Jerico peaked out the closet to see Goodsport leading the Lamberts down the corridor.
ėGoodsport! Guys, am I glad to see you!î Meg exlcaimed as she got out of the janitorís closet.
Goodsport and the Lambertís stopped in their tracks.
ėWhat are you doing here?î Goodsport asked.
ėWe were wondering the same thing.î Jerico said as he stepped out of the closet.
ėYou two werenít... Well you know, in there. Were you?î James asked.
Meg shot a dirty look at him and didnít say anything in reply.
ėAragorn is wounded, we need to help him!î Meg said.
ėYeah!î Jerico backed up. ėIt will take some time trying to get away since he was shot in the leg!î
ėWell I think thatís what weíre afraid of!î Brett said. ėI hacked into the giant Drill Base and put it on self-destruct mode. We donít have much time! Only a half an hour!î
ėWell it's better than fifteen minutes!î Jerico said. ėCome on, we got to get Aragorn out of here!î
The Lambertís helped Aragorn out of the closet as Meg, Jerico, and Goodsport led the way.

They rounded a corner and stopped in their tracks as they seen Sauron in front of them.
ėYou canít win!î He said.
ėOh yeah!î Goodsport said as he yanked out his machine gun.
Goodsport had his finger on the trigger when the wall and roof between him and Sauron came down in front of them, separating them as a missile came through the wall. Goodsport flew back into the rest of the group.
ėWeíll go the other way!î Brett said.

- - -

Indy and Ben hid between three large chunks of cement which was from the now half-way destroyed Air Force base. Shooting anyone who noticed them was seldom yet grenades they couldnít shoot as easily. They seen Goodsport followed by Meg and Jerico run out of the damaged Air Force base yelling to run that itís gonna blow. Ben and Indy got out from their hiding place. They then seen the Lambertís hauling Aragorn.

Shorty, barely able to put his head up, seen the figures of The Lambertís, Aragorn, Meg, Jerico, Indy, Ben, and Goodsport coming his way.
ėHelp me, please!î He attempted to moan. ėHelp me!î

- - -

The Phoenix army tanks were four miles from the battle zone. Advancing in a straight line they readied their torpedoes.

- - -


As Indy was running, he almost tripped over flaming motorcycle and instead jumped right over it.
ėWhoa!î He fell flat on his face as he lost balance.
He got up and seen the body laying next to him was Short Roundís!
ėOh my God!î He exclaimed. ėGuys! Come here! Itís Short Round!î
They all stopped. Goodsport was the first to turn around and run to him.
ėBuddy!î He said. ėAre you ok? Speak to me!î
He shook Shorty who rolled over.
ėHelp meÖ SomeoneÖî He moaned.
ėHeís ok!î Goodsport said with excitement. ėIndy, help me pick him up! We have less than ten minuts 'till this baby blows!î
Goodsport went on Shortyís right and Indy on his left. They helped him up and carried him away.
ėCome on, letís go!î He commanded as they walked away.

- - -

Sauron appeared in Spalticís main room.
ėThey escaped me!î Sauron angrily said.
ėI donít care about that now, Sauron.î Spaltic said. ėIn five more minutes the base is going to blow up. We need to eject.î
ėEject?î Sauron asked.
ėYou heard me.î Spaltic said. ėItís for emergencies like this.î
He grabbed the edge of his hand rest on his chair arm and opened up a small compartment. He pressed the button that was in it.

- - -

As they were running away from the base, a rocket-like noise sounded through the air. They looked back to see a round pod, half a quarter of the size of the base, go through the air like a meteorite going the wrong way!
ėHolismokes!î James exclaimed.
ėWe donít have enough time!î Brett demanded. ėCome on!î
They started to run farther and faster. It happened. The base blew up in a brilliant giant ball of flames! It engulfed the other tanks, troops, the whole air force base and all! The Phoenix Group could feel the heat on their backs! They fell to the ground!


Chapter 4 tomorrow.
