Just in Time Chapter 3: Left Behind

Hey! Alright, let's get right into the story. Recap: You woke up and went to the RR HQ. (I'll tell you what it stands for in the chapter). You go into the infirmery, and the nurse tells you to get some rest. Well, you get yourself lost and follow Cosmos, which turns out to be a bad idea. As you get the hoverboard, Zander, the alien looking police guy, tries to capture you. You and Cosmos fly away as Arch starts up the ship/HQ. The hoverboard's engine is blasted, and Cosmos manages to shoot a torpedo with a rope from his belt into the side of the ship. Zander cuts the rope slightly, and you let go so Cosmos wouldn't be captured. You land in a lake and bang your head on a rock. Today's chapter is in Cosmos's POV. (Point of View)

Chapter 3: Left Behind
I strain my neck to see where Sally fell. My heart fills with anger as Zander runs off in her direction. Dispite of everyone else's opinion, I don't think Sally is that bad. Everyone thinks she's stupid, but that's because of lost memory. I pull out binoculars and try to find Zander, who probably has Sally. Sure enough, Zander is running towards the city with Sally over his shoulder. I gulp down a gasp as I see her hair wet with water and blood. I feel a tug on the rope and look up to see Arch and Kelly lupping me in. Stuffing the binoculars into my bag, I climb up the rope.
Once inside, I slide down onto the floor, relieved that I'm alive and guilty that I abandoned a friend. "Where's Dumbo?" asks Kelly her voice sounding almost hopeful.
"She's been captured. She let go of the rope so I wouldn't get captured." I grunt not liking the gleam of happiness the flashed across her face.
Kelly quickly grows somber and says, "She'll tell everything!"
I am getting really annoyed with her. "She doesn't know anything to begin with! She told us that she had amnesia. Besides, we're not in the same place and what we showed her was nothing of military importance."
Arch places a hand on Kelly's shoulder. "Cosmos's right, but we have to leave quickly just in case."
I jump up shocked. "You mean we're just going to leave her behind? After what she did for me, I've got to get her out of GEM's clutches!"
Arch stares hard at me. "No. If she hadn't been there in the first place, we would still be safe. With all her screaming, I would be surprised if GEM didn't find us."
I glare at him. "She only screamed AFTER they found us. YOU were the one that yelled when we first came to the park."
Arch glares back. "She yelled when she went out looking for you." Kelly tries to smile sadly at me, but fails miserably. Her joy in seeing Sally gone is too evident.
"Arch's right, Cosmos." she says in a soft purring voice. "She nothing but trouble. Come on. I'll get you patched up." She steps closer to me and grips my arm. I shrug her off and walk away.
"Sally's the one who got shot. Not me." I storm down the halls and lock the metal sliding door to my room shut. I flop onto my bed and check what's on TV. The holographic screen shows the news in 3D. A reporter stands in front of GEM HQ.
"We're live from GEM HQ, where Commander Zander has just returned with a Ranger's Resistance member. The girl's identity is unknown for the moment, but we'll keep you posted. The girl is generously being treated and will be kindly asked to tell what she knows. This may be the RR's undoing. Could this be the end of the bandits reign of terror? Let's hope. Back to you Fred."
"We're still waiting for more imformation, but we do know that the girl was left behind by her supposed comrades. Commander said that she loyally protected the criminal Cosmos Strate from the Commander's laser. Cosmos, being the criminal he is, forces her to let go of the rope and sends her falling. It's obvious that the RR tricked this poor girl into joining them. Once this terrible menace is stopped, the U.S.A. can finally live in peace. We'll be right back."
I almost smash the remote in anger. I've seen all of this before. The twisted tales of the government. The lies fed to the people to hate us, the REAL good guys. This went much too far. Never had the GEM accused the RR of back stabbing our members. Loyalty is treasured in the organization. Now, they're even dragging innocents into the fray. I know now that Sally would be killed if she didn't speak. The way the news told the story makes it clear. The GEM are planning to use her to drag Ranger's Resistance's name through the mud. I know that rescuing Sally by myself would be suicide, but I just can't do nothing. "ARGH!" I yell and punch the wall. The news isn't lying. RR is leaving a member behind.
