And now let's begin the second adventure
G.A.R.S. Chapter 2: The Anvil
Scene 1, First day at work...
D:
- So you're the new ones... Welcome to the team, guys.
The two new recruits arrived to G.A.R.S. Manor at 8 a.m., in full hero uniform, waiting to find an ultramodern building. The look of their faces when they saw the "Manor" and the other three G.A.R.S. members in civilian clothes taking coffee was so amusant that even Blueskin laughted.
Soon after, Dandy shown all the complex to Grav and Tikey, including the somewhat secret underground training facilities and the small hidden heliport near the cliff. They were given a desk, and computer with fast internet and a coffee mug, and their first day at work began quietly.
11:32 a.m.
The group was training in the underground facilities, in a great room that Dandy had called Danger Room (she thought it was a very original name
). They had simulated an accident where a school bus had crashed over a bridge against a truck transporting nuclear waste, and both vehicles were going to fall in a river. The flying capacities of the two new members proved to be very useful to the team, Tikey used her telekinesis to lift the "damaged" waste barrels from the truck without touching them, and to put them in sealed containers while Dandy and Grav took the children out of the bus. The others did also a good job, Rubbergirl tied the bus to the pillar of the bridge with some rubber ropes to give time to the fliers, Blueskin took some lampposts and used them to leverage the truck while Tikey took the barrels, and Grenadier explosed the closed cabin door to rescue the truck driver. In some ten minutes the situation was under control. No victims, no damage.
D:
- Now, guys, a five minutes break, and then we must redo it, this time under eight minutes!
1:47 p.m.
The group was lunching at the nearby Harold's when Dandy mobil phone began to ring.
D:
- Yes, Mr. Eastroad, we will we there under fifteen minutes!
It seemed that a cargo ship from South America had suffered some kind of accident that put them in danger, including a uncontrolled fire on board. The ship cargo included some hundred tons of chemical waste to be recycled in an US site, and if that waste finished under the sea the ecological damage would be irreversible. The Coast Guard had been called, but someone in the ship had shot them with high caliber weapons and they couldn't approach. It was clearly a work for the G.A.R.S.! The ran to the Manor and donned their uniforms. An helicopter waited from them in the small heliport, they were going to be carried to one Coast Guard ship that they would use as operation HQ.
D:
- Another helicopter trip... I begin to hate these things.
Next one this soon. Very soon.
