Adventure #6

The Wrath of Fang Gow

For Dale Daring and Jean Le Grand, it is a frightening image to wake up to.  Both are chained to a wall with their mouths covered.  They see two other women being taken away to a hallway.  They can hear the roar of a crowd.  They can hear a man speaking with some kind of Chinese dialect.  Both are too groggy to make out the words that sound muffled from their position.

They hear the sound of a plane overhead.  They hear yelling.  The guards looking over them begin to look around.  One sends the other off to investigate.  All of this is very confusing to Dale and Jean.

From Camelot to a New World

Yvonne Dubois can tell that the lady calling herself Guinevere has a feeling of uncertainty.  Her sword is in the backseat at Sergeant Dubois’ request.  Yvonne can see Guinevere looking on in awe at her surroundings.  She sees tall buildings ahead.

Guinevere “What is this place I have come to?”

Yvonne Dubois “We’re approaching Montreal, Miss Guinevere.”

Guinevere’s expression as she looks on is intriguing to Yvonne.

Guinevere “Fascinating.”

Yvonne “How did you wind up in the lake?”

Guinevere turns to the Sergeant, still getting over the notion that she was riding inside some kind of mechanical beast and seeing other similar beasts of various forms pass along the black clad trail of strange markings.

Guinevere “The Lady of the Lake.  She called upon me to safety.   I was…  I was promised a new life in a new world.  A world of miracles.  Please…tell me this is such a world?”

Yvonne had tested the lady earlier for any kind of drug or alcoholic intake.  There was none.  It was possible that she was simply delirious.  Still, there was something about her that Yvonne could not quite explain.  Why was she calling herself Guinevere?  Why was she talking about a Lady of the Lake?  What was with the Arthurian legend fascination?

It was time to get this Guinevere to some place where she could find the help she apparently needed.

In The Black

The private jet touches down in Hong Kong.  While the pilot’s job is to simply stay behind at the airport, Louise Vallen and her assistant, Myra Rutherford were about to embark on a journey.  Their vehicle was there, waiting for them as planned.
