Chapter 1
Aaliyah had woken early that morning to finish some paperwork for her father. She walked slowly into her family's dojo papers in hand. She set them on the desk. She seen her father standing in the middle of the dojo talking to a young blonde haired man "Ohayoogozaimasui Otoosanii"
"Ohayoogozaimasu Aaliyah" He smiled turning to greet her as she walked over to them. He hugged her gently whispering into her ear "This man wishes to speak with you Musumeiii."
"Of course, what is it I can do for you Sir?" She smiled sweetly at them.
"Hello ma'am. I have been requested by my superiors to offer you a position on the new military base. They have heard of your good record and have sent this letter with me in case you wish to further understand what we are doing." The man said holding out the letter to her.
"Dear Doctor Aaliyah Satou,
We have read up on your service records and performance while you were in the military. We are requesting that you join us due to your high performance and several honors that were awarded to you. We also request your service because you are the best in your field and might serve as some assistance to us.
General Abernathy" Aaliyah read the letter quietly to herself. She breathed in a sigh, Please stay calm or just appear calm. It's not that hard I can do this just don't fidget. "Sir I—"
"Go Aaliyah it would do you good to use your skills and not be sitting behind that desk all day."
"Daddy, if I go who will take care of you and Nicholas?" She asked half in shock at her father.
"My child I can take care of myself and your brother can take care of himself too."
"I'm sorry father I should not have questioned you."
"It is all right musume but you should go you deserve better than being stuck behind that desk and not doing what you love." He motioned toward the desk where she had set the papers.
She nodded "Sir, I would be honored to accept your offer and the assignment to the base." She felt a calm energy rush over her. Those words felt so good to say yet so bitter sweet. The last time she had said words similar to those was when she was assigned to the same base as her younger brothers.
The man nodded "I will take you to get your things then. My car is out front."
"Sir, may I go say good bye to my brother first?"
"Of Course, our plane does not leave for at least six hours."
"Thank you, Sir. Daddy where is Nicholas?"
"He is upstairs in his classroom."
"Thank you" Aaliyah moved swiftly toward the stairs.
"Aaliyah he—"
"I'll be right back." She called over her shoulder as she bolted up the stairs.
"Has a class." Her dad shook his head "Oh dear."
…
Aaliyah had packed her cloths and a couple of boxes of other items: pictures, books, her laptop and a small jewelry box, among several other things. She had given hugs an' kisses to her father and brother. She told them she would e-mail them when she got the chance.
The blonde haired man she now knew to be First sergeant Conrad S. Hauser aka Duke. One of the soldiers who had gone renegade but turned out to be a hero in the end. He and his team revealed that Cobra was truly an enemy of the world. He had helped Aaliyah carry her things to the car and now drove in silence. He watched her stare at the road in front of them. A blank almost petrified look rested on her face. Worried Duke calmly nodded his head.
Aaliyah couldn't remember why she had suddenly agreed to this she couldn't help but let the memory of her first recruitment slip into her mind.
"Dr. Satou I presume." The man said his eyes resting on her.
"Yes, Sir I am Doctor Aaliyah Satou." She replied quietly "What is it I can do for you?"
…
"Sir I would be most honored to accept your request for this assignment." She had flown in a helicopter with him to the base where she was to be stationed. He brothers were also stationed on that base.
"Dr. Satou" the sound of her own name startled her.
"Yes sir?"
"We are at the airport. Our plane is waiting on the other side of the terminal."
"Oh, all right. Sorry I must have…I was just thinking." Aaliyah got out of the car and grabbed her suitcase and struggled to get both boxes.
"Let me." He took the boxes from her "shut the trunk and come on."
"Yes Sir." She quickly followed him through the airport terminal to the plane. Once they were both settled on the plane.
He smiled "May I ask why you stopped serving in the military."
"Sir with all due respect I was an on base medical doctor not truly a military officer. To answer your question I went home to take care of my father who was sick and my younger brother."
He nodded as though to agree that it was a good reason. The truth be told that wasn't the whole reason but she didn't know him that well and she was not ready for anyone else to know. Least of all someone she was going to be working under. The last thing she wanted was a psych evaluation she was fine wasn't she.
