again.
âItâs a text from Jay,â said Kai. âHe says heâs going to fly to the fire land in the Jet Tank 500. It holds lots of rocks. Heâs also going to bring a Dirt Blaster. He used it when he battled the mutant before.â
âWhat about us?â asked BC.
Before Kai could answer he heard a noise behind him.
Kai turned around. âLook, BC,â he said. âThe metal doors are opening.â
âItâs a new battle chamber,â BC said.
Kai walked into the chamber. âAll our gadgets are here, BC,â he said. âAnd theyâve been upgraded with the new Battle-All-Tool.â
âWhatâs that?â asked BC.
âI made it in the new science lab,â said Kai. âIt means that we can now use any gadget in any land. The BAT makes sure we donât make things worse.â
âAnd we wonât make any more mutants,â said BC. âLook! All our rides are on that screen.â
Kai looked at the screen. âWe can pick our ride here,â he said to BC. âThen it will be waiting for us on the take-off pad in the transport chamber.â
âLetâs pick our ride first then,â said BC.
Kai flicked through the rides on the touch screen. He stopped at the Ice Chopper.
âThis was good when we battled this mutant last time,â said Kai.
âYes,â said BC. Then he raced over to the gadgets. âWe could take the Sword Ice Striker too.â
Kai joined BC and looked at all the gadgets. âI think the battle chains would be better,â said Kai. âWeâll need to tie these beasts up!â
Kai went to take the chains but they wouldnât come off the wall.
A computer voice said
âI guess everything will be in the transport chamber,â said Kai. âNow, letâs go!â
Kai and BC took the lift to the transport chamber.
âOur ride is ready,â said Kai. âHop in, BC.â
Kai keyed in the codes for the fire land on his orb. The doors of the chamber slid open. The ice chopper shot out through the chamberâs tunnel.
Kai and BC flew into a red-hot land. âThis is the fire land,â said Kai. âLook at the temp outside!â
âIâm going to see if Jay is here yet,â said Kai.
Kai spoke into his headset mouthpiece. âBorder Guard Jay Armstrong. Report in for battle. Over. Jay Armstrong. Report in for battle.â
There was no reply.
âWhere is he?â asked BC.
âHe mustnât be here yet,â said Kai.
âFireflies are coming,â said BC, his tail wagging.
âYouâre right,â said Kai.
âIâll blast them with the fly spray. Itâs a new add-on.â Kai pushed the fly spray button on the dash. Mist shot out from the front of the jet.
As mist hit each firefly, it dropped away. Kai laughed and said, âTheyâre dropping like flies! Too easy, BC.â
âLook out,â said BC. âThereâs an ash cloud ahead.â
âWeâll fly below it,â Kai said. âWe know this landâs tricks!â
Kai flew the chopper under the ash cloud. âWeâre far enough away from it now,â he said. Then Kai saw BCâs tail wagging. âWhat is it now, BC?â he asked. But before BC could answer, the chopper was hit by a huge gust of wind.
âItâs a fire and wind attack,â BC said as the chopper turned over and over.
Kai struggled to get control of the chopper. âWeâve been blown back a long way.â
Suddenly something crashed into the side of the jet. âItâs burning rocks!â said Kai.
The rocks came hard and fast. The chopper was being hit again and again.
Kai struggled to keep the chopper steady. âI canât keep the chopper up. Weâll have to fly away.â
âOpen the cockpit,â called BC. âIâll get them with my lasers.â
Kai opened the cockpit. But before BC could hit
