"So, Zach, what are you doing out here?" asked AnCharlene. "Well," Zach said, taking a deep breath, "I'm saving the world." "The world, huh? That's a lot more than you usually take on..." said Audrey. "So who's threatening to take over the world?" asked Alicia. "You may want to get some snacks; it's a long story..." "Then I guess we're going to San Francisco," said Audrey. "Really? You guys are going to help?" "You bet, Zach," said Alicia. "I'll go change course," said AnCharlene. And with that, the big pink copter headed for California.

As soon as he felt the tension in the ladder break, he grabbed for the helicopter, but to no avail. His hand fell short, and he began to fall. But before he had even realizd what happened, an arm reached from inside the copter. "Hang on!" someone said. Soon after, a new rope was lowered from the door. Zach grabbed the rope and pulled himself inside. Zach laid on the floor, catching his breath. "Welome aboard," said one voice. Zach looked up and saw three figures standing around him. "Who are you guys?" he asked. "Well, we certainly aren't 'guys,'" said another. "Allow us to introduce ourselves: I'm Alicia." "I'm Audrey." "And I'm AnCharlene." Zach's blurred vision slowly came into focus. "Oh, the A-Team."

Zach grabbed the rope above, pulling himself within a few feet of the helicopter door. Behind him, it seemed ALICE had run out of ammo. The bullets quit firing. Zach looked back at the jet black helicopter. Mission accomplished. With that, the copter made a U-turn and flew off. Zach was in disbelief. "Why would ALICE have thought she finished me off?" he thought. But Zach soon received an answer. He felt the ladder fray. He looked up and saw it unraveling where a bullet had struck. Soon after, the ladder snapped.
