Just in Time Chapter 2: Captured

Hi! Was the last chapter confusing? I hope it wasn't. I did my best. Today's chapter is still in your point of view but the next chpter's will be different so DON'T SKIP THIS INTRO SECTION! The next chapters are going to be different because what happens in this chapter. Alright, to the recap! Recap: You wake up in a shiny hallway in a great amount of pain. When the pain subsides, you find Cosmos and follow him. He drags you to his hoverboard and ou two esacpe the GEM. You get really sick and while Cosmos and his friends, Arch and Kelly are arguing. You fall unconscious. To the story!

Chapter 2: Captured
I groan softly. I hear a low humming noise that reminds me of Cosmos's hoverboard. Oh, no! Please, someone get me off this thing! I open my eyes slightly. Suprisingly, I don't feel pain. I have a bit of a headache, but it's minor. Cosmos turns to me and smirks. "So, Sleepy Beauty finally awakes." I pout and turn away. BAD idea. I see the ground far below us and feel dizzy again. I quickly look for anything else to look at and just look at my hands. "We're heading back to RR HQ." Cosmos tells me over the wind. I frown but say nothing. I see his friends Kelly and Arch hovering next to us. As we reach HQ, Arch leads Kelly into a room that has the words, "Infirmery" on it. I feel Cosmos shove me towards the room. "Come on. Are you always this slow?" I huff and stomp towards the door leaving Cosmos laughing behind me.
In the room, Kelly is getting her arm relocated. I look around. Computer screens are holographic, keyboards float, robots clean up the room, for some reason everything here seems so different from my home, where ever that is. The nurse, who isn't robotic, gives me a quick check up and says that I'm just suffering from fatigue. "Go get some rest in the guest rooms." I nod and do as she says. Sadly, I completely forgot to ask for directions and end up getting myself lost. I sigh, but I see Cosmos walking outside. Part of me says that I should follow him. The other half says that last time time I followed him, I fell unconscious. The first half wins the battle, and I run after him.
"Oi, Cosmos!" I shout. He spins around and clamps his hand over my mouth which I bite hard. He pulls his hands back a rubs the part where I bit him.
Glaring at me, he asks, "What are you doing? You need to rest."
I look down embarrassed. "I got lost." He rolls his eyes at me.
"Look, I just have to get my board, and then I'll show you the way." I grin my thanks, but as we're walking back a laser burns the tree we are next to.
"Hahahahahaha! I've got you now!" says the alien police man. Cosmos growls and tosses me his phone.
"Call Arch to get the ship started." I do as he asks as he yells onto the man. "You'll have to catch us frist Zander!" He drags me onto the board and zooms off. I'm determined not to scream and feel the familiar sense of nausia. As we fly off, a laser drills itself into my leg causing me to stumble. "Hold on, er, I can't believe I still don't know your name!" He asks annoyed. What is my name? Sam, Sully, I know!
"Sally! I'm Sally Maroles!" I say to him. He nods and continues to fly. Sadly, Zander is a good marksman. He blasts the engine of the hoverboard, and we begin to fall. I change my mind. I'm gonna scream. "AHHHHHHH!"
Cosmos grabs me and blasts a torpedo like thing with a cord tied to it. It sticks itself deep into the side of the HQ which is now flying. "How is a building flying?" I ask.
"It's actually a ship not a building!" he yells back. Suddenly, Zander takes out a huge gun like thingy and blasts the cord that's holding us. "Oh, great." Cosmos grumbles trying to stay calm, but I could see the panic in his eyes. A crazy, heroic idea pops into my brain. I can't believe I'm doing this. I mean I don't even know the guy.
"Cosmos! Would it hold you by yourself?" He nods. Check one. "Do you think they'll question me too? I mean I don't know where I was born much less what's going on here." He shakes his head know. Realization begins to come to him. I have to hurry. "Get inside!" I shouts before letting go of Cosmos, who had the cord tied around his waist. My visions blurs slightly, but I can still see Cosmos's horrified face as I fall towards earth. I leg stings badly so I won't be running. I landed in the lake and knock my head on a rock. Second time today. I think before everything goes black, again.
