Intelligence: Gabriel and Riley

by Sephiria Arks

Gabriel has to finally let go of Amelia. Riley is pulled into danger. Lillian brings herself out into the field. And during all of this, Gabriel and Riley grow closer together. Still with feelings for Amelia, something's do get complicated. [a bit of cursing involved, please comment].

1. Chapter 1

"I swear to you Gabriel, you will drive me insane soon. My job is to protect you, not the other way around."

"If I am driving you insane, then there is the door. Oh, and you are doing a crappy job protecting me. Good night."

"Gabriel do not shut the door- and he shut the in my face. Night, Gabriel."

I sigh deeply, while pulling a beer out of my fridge. Riley can be a bit of over push over sometimes, and she says I drive her insane! She needs to think that again. I swear upon that.

Lying down on my couch, I stare over at the window. The memory of Amelia's death appeared before me, and I close my eyes. I couldn't let that memory go at all.

"God, if you are out there. . . . Please let Amelia go to heaven and not hell. . . . . Yeah, she made stupid mistakes and everything. . . . . . I don't blame her. Please let her watch over me, please."

Keeping my eyes close for a while, I drifted into sleep. The memory of Amelia's death became my dream. The part where the blast happened, it was a bit too real. Just as I jerk up from my sleep, I heard my window shatter.

"Riley."

Pounding off my couch, I ran towards my window, and saw a bit of smoke. Getting on the window sill, I jump off it and grab the railing to her porch. Pulling myself over it, I ran into her apartment.

"Riley! Riley where are you?"

I jump over destroyed furniture and other things, as I search for Riley. It wasn't long, before other government soldiers came in.

"You are coming with us! We need to leave this area right now!"

"What about my partner, Riley Neal, she lives here. Riley, where are you?!"

"Grab him and let's go!"

Two agents grabbed me, and dragged me out of Riley's apartment. Wasn't long before we were outside the entire complex, when we all heard a small explosion come from within Riley's apartment.

"Riley!"

I slump down to the ground, but my eyes wouldn't stop looking at Riley's apartment. Riley was gone, but I'm not sure how. She could have still been in there, or whoever set the bombs took her. Either way, she was gone. Either dead or alive. I wasn't sure on which one though.
