Chapter 1: Evening guest
It was night, the clock was showing 11 PM and a woman dressed in a green and black suit walked from her car to her house.
She always paid close attention, to make sure nobody was watching and that nobody had opened the door while she was gone.Today it was like most other days, nobody had been there and she entered her house closing the door behind her.
She walked in through the living room where she froze, even though it was dark she saw a dark figure.
She quickly reached out for the light switch and turned it on.
On her couch a man was seated enjoying what seemed like a cup of coffee or tea.
The man was wearing a black combat styled uniform, and she knew this man from her past.
"Long time no see Shego" The man said with a grin as he put a cup onto the table.
"Do you mind letting me know why you are here before I blast you into oblivion?" Shego was clearly annoyed but composed as she lit up her plasma.
"Now now, calm down I do not feel like blasting you full of holes just yet. Well I never actually felt like that, but I will leave once I am done talking to you." The man in the couch was equally cold and composed as Shego, and as he was speaking he made sure to show Shego that he had a firearm aimed at her under the table.
"Alright John you got 5 minutes before I run out of patience and test your accuracy with that sub machine gun of yours." Shego replied and lowered her plasma charged arm, the glow died down slightly, but it didn't disappear.
"5 minutes are plenty Sheila..." John paused and waited for the effect which was a slightly more annoyed face on Shego as he mentioned her real name.
"After our last meeting I am pretty sure that we are not on the best terms but believe me when I tell you that you are going to be in great danger soon and I am not going to be able to help you."
"Do tell me why and why I should bother at all!" Shego was quick to reply.
"I got the news 2 days ago and I know this guy he is ruthless, he has set his sights upon Middleton and the reason you are in danger is because your employer, this... Drakken fellow is developing something he wants, I do not know what he is planning to do with it however but I can tell you this he is not of the sharing type so you are very likely to end up in a fight with the guy, if you do you are SCREWED! GONE! DEAD! Out of the game for good. Catch my drift?" John was getting more aggressive.
"Drakken has something he wants? Since when would he ever develop something that is useful. He will never do that." Shego was still keeping her tone.
"Fine, now I have warned you! I felt I owe you this much Shego especially after the way we split ways. But if you want to die then I am not going to stop you, and you will know why I can't help you when you see this man." John was so annoyed.
"The way we parted was your fault! You left me behind to die, and that was after I saved your life once. And for saving your life you left me behind in enemy territory while you went home to all the sweet glory, in the meantime I was fighting myself through a tight jungle for weeks. I can promise you this John Hellman! The next time we meet I will give you all the pain you deserve before I kill you." Shego said as John got up from the couch and walked towards the door with the gun still aimed at Shego.
As John opened the front door he turned towards Shego one last time.
"That time I didn't have a choice... It was a stupid choice to make, but my options weren't any better. Remain cautious Shego, the danger might show up at anytime." John quickly turned around and closed the door behind him, not looking back he walked into the dim light.
Shego moved over to the window and her glow disappeared, she watched John disappear into the darkness and she kept watching for a while until she saw 4 round taillights on a car light up.
The car pulled into the dim light provided by the half busted street lamps in her local street.
But she saw the car was blue and she shook her head as he pulled away.
She knew they probably had gone too far back then, and most likely he knew as well, but neither had the guts to admit it.
Author notes:
Just doing an attemptive release so far to see if there is any interest.
I am still interested in beta readers as well and I have the storyplan somewhat laid down for this story, but for now let us just see where this car will take us.
