Light In A Dark Tunnel
A few weeks later after Sarah had gone off to another mission I stopped hearing from anyone, not even Soliare. When I woke I heard a hollow knock on my door. I walked to the door and opened it to find Sarah in torn clothes, she appeared to be hurt as I saw her limping. I helped her inside she was crying with makeup running down her face, I asked what had happened to her and she replied in a low sobbing voice,"I quit..." I asked what she was talking about. She replied "I quit doing the dirty deeds of the FWC, they wanted me to set explosives on yours and Soliare's ship, I agreed and then when they caught me trying to escape from the ship docks they attacked me. They are gonna try to take out Soliare if we don't get to him" I told her to rest up and stay here then I ran out to the medical bay. Once outside I cloaked and entered the hallway where Soliare's room was. Once I turned the corner I saw bullets fly past me. I ducked and could make out a female exo with a heavy machine gun firing away at FWC guard. It was over in a matter of seconds and then I heard a crunch of metal. I looked up to see the exo's arm being smashed under the feet of the Commander of the FWC. I sneaked up towards the door then he fired hitting my shoulder. I flinched and my cloak fell, the Commander laughed and continued pressure on the exo's arm. I activated my blade dancer ability and pulled out my knife. He chuckled one move and she dies, he aimed his gun at her head. I dropped my knife and walked up to him with my hands up. He aimed back at me and I hesitated to move. I asked him why he had to do this. He responded" so there is no competition" I chuckled and said "Man how the tables turn" my knife zoomed into my hand and I shifted it into his gut,I chuckled at his death. I looked over to the exo and asked her of her name. A familiar voice replied "Heather help me" I flicked on the lights and saw Soliare with a roof panel on his throat. I lifted it up off him as he ripped off his pulse monitors and slipped out from under the panel. I had them follow me back to the condo and noticed guards inside. I pulled out my gun and shot the two guards in the doorway. I entered while Soliare held Heather outside. Once inside I saw Sarah under a table across the room. She was knocked out cold,so I grabbed her and left the house. Me and Soliare went to the ship dock to board my ship. When we got inside I rested Sarah on the bed in the ship. Soliare rested Heather on his bed in his ship. He followed me to orbit, I decided we would land on the Earth. When we did I led us to my underground hide out. I set up boards to use them as shelves and hid out ships inside. I stood on top of the ships and screwed in a few bulbs. I had enough to last us a few months. We would have to see what we would do from there. I went inside my ship and checked on Sarah,she was awake. She looked at me and smiled. She walked up to me hugged me and thanked me. She began to tear. I comforted her and held her tight. I asked her if she was alright. She responded with a tighter hug. She tilted her head and kissed me on the cheek. I asked her if she could help Heather. She told me she would try,we walked over to the other ship and started to unbend all the metal parts in her arm. Then we noticed that it was simply unplugged. Sarah plugged it back together and asked her to move her arm. It twitched back and then it popped into place. Sarah told her to rest up. Soliare worked on the ships that night while we slept. I slept along side Sarah that night, I was going to get revenge one way or another.
