F.U.R. Part 5
David Alexander rushes out of the door, "That would explain the irrational rationality. Shawn was controlled to throw us off the track, while Lan's master plan finished."
The other four follow closely behind him, "Does that mean that you know what he's going to do?" Xavier ask to his left.
"No," Their superior officer keeps running faster, "But from my DNA scans, he's in Manhattan."
"What about Shawn?" May Asks from his middle right.
"I contacted Winor, he's sending someone over to take him where he'll be treated," David slides into the garage to find the car on destroyed , "Damn! We've got to improvise."
Lan Alexander stood above a crowd of people, throwing down Stop sign sized bolts of lightning; like some demented, gray furred Zeus.
"You would be surprised what could happen when different powers combine!" Lan feels what some in the medical department would call psychotic.
"Let me try," Andrew says as he disconnects the two linked cores. Putting the purple and green together, a clear cord from each, fitting together like...well, many thing that go into one another. Andrew reaches out and a manhole cover flies off. Huge vines grow from the darkness, grabbing people and pulling them into the abyss, "This is so cool!"
A flash of fire comes from the distance in the direction of the place Alex lives. A rush of satisfaction fills Lan as he envisions the destruction at the house. The emotion fades into pure terror as he realizes that the fire wasn't getting bigger; it was getting closer.
"Sierra, I think it's time to abort ship!" the wolf jumps from his perch. Andrew looks at the fire ball, and hurries after his boss. The fire splits apart and the five land on the building top. May was holding clear cord the red and pink resource charges.
"Fire plus Flight equals Chariot of Fire" Michael jumps with adrenaline.
"Let's not get too excited Monkey Boy," David looks around for a way down from the apartment. Choosing a fire escape, he slides his way down the stairs, "Guys, put the numbers on the device. I'll find Lan."
May grabs the PDA from Xavier, Dialing in a set of numbers. Two sets of blinking lights appear on the screen. One, David, was a block away from the other set.
David rips the two capsules from his belt, the cord making it look like nunchucks. Almost instantly, the manholes around him burst water. The torrent rushes past him, and solidifies around his feet. The slab of ice gets pushed by more water, shooting him forward. He flies down the road, racing down the side streets to his target. Coming out in front of Lan, Alexander blocks off his path. His brother reaches out his hand and a bolt of lightning arcs from his hand, shattering the ice under David's feet. Before Lan could fire off another bolt, a spike of water comes up, and freezes his hands shut.
"Do something!" Andrew lunges forward, making a flurry of vines rip themselves from the pavement. David uses streams of water to deflect the plant whips. A well placed one get's through his defense, and hits David squarely in the face. Blood seeps from the long gash. Him being distracted, causes the ice around Lan's hands to start to melt. David jumps to his feet, and wraps a tentacle of water around Andrew's leg. Flinging him up, he get slammed against the wall.
David turns his focus to the Gray Wolf in front of him, "Lan, Alexander," his brother looks at him angrily, "You are under arrest."
Lan smiles up at him, "Oh really..." his body starts fading, and then he disappears.
"DAMNIT!!!" David punches the block of ice, shattering it. Looking over to the Tiger, he was gone too, "Guys, these were illusions! Keep on your guard!"
May shifts the headphones on her head, and looks at the device. At first it was one or two, but now it was over a hundred hot spots the was labeled with ether "Lan" or "Andrew." She looks at it then throws it down, "David, the scanner has been compromised! I can't get a reading on the real ones."
"Same here," Bones dodges some vines, and hits "Lan" in the head with a steel staff , and it disappears, "Can't see which is which out here!"
"Anyone have any ideas?" Xavier knocks three "Andrew"s off their feet with a gust of wind, "Cause I got none, and I'll never if this keeps up."
"I think I might have one," Michael spears one of the clones in the face with a rock javelin, "The real one has to be around here somewhere...right?"
"Okay, what's your point," David says over the line.
"What's the easiest way to circumference the city? In the center!" They all glance to the Coca-cola sign in the center of Times Square, "BINGO!" They all say at once.

A little shorter than my usual work, but it'll work for a cliffhanger. The finale for F.U.R. is coming next.
TR-RU will be up soon too.
