I'm posting this a wee bit early where I'm at. (Shocking, I know! ) Anyway, the prompt is: shift Knock us out with a response!

Oniishi in particular! Hehe.

Hola everyone! Rlgirl......great story! It's very interesting but I don't get how the dynamic is. Do you have a previous part of the story?

I've missed quite a few Bradbury's Jars due to my summer travels, but it seems like Red Impulse is still pulling the same thing on Jun: secrets, controlling attitude... why am I not surprised? I am glad to see that she is keeping her own counsel though, and not necessarily trusting him implicitly. So... having missed so many prompts, I feel like jumping into this one. Let's see... ********** He waited for the moment. If he had been asked, there would have been no way for him to explain it, but there was always something that told him when was the exact moment he needed to act. It wasn't instinctive... not exactly. Perhaps it was a combination of instinct and experience. Whatever it was, he listened to it: that inner warning that the time had come. And then he felt it: a tiny shift in the sir currents, a slight hum from the machinery around him, a minute increase in the sense of urgency the enemy soldiers felt as they charged at him. "Time to go!" he signalled his team, and within seconds, they were all running for the exit, the base exploding behind them. His timing had been spot on, once again.

TJ, that seems like something I could have written! I just love the image of the goons' shift change happening just as our favorite birds attack! Just imagine: We hear explosions off stage. Katse grabs a goon running past. KATSE: Get in there and fight! GOON: Sorry, I'm off the clock!

TJ: Ken does seem to have that timing mojo.

Hola adrianag! I'm glad you like my little story so far! I started this back on June 21 with Bradbury's Jar Prompt #182 and I have been adding a little to it every week since.

EW: Yipes! I'd be sick to my stomach too if I were Jinpei!

LOL, Joe certainly got interrogated! I'm wondering if he's going to have the sense to report this to Nambu...

KT: Joe must feel like he's caught up in a whirlwind, everything's happening so fast!

I dunno .... I think if I were Joe, I'd be more than a little suspicious of this guy ... I mean, just like Joe has his secrets to keep, I'd be wondering what this guy wasn't saying and why he fishing around so much ... I guess I'm not a very trusting soul! lol

...and then there's the "What are the odds -- ?" question. You know, what are the odds of Joe hooking up with a girl who just happens to be a BC Island refugee who's alive because of the actions of his parents?

And what's the odds of Julia of all people randomly hooking them up?
