Chapter 3: temptations
"Alright guys! We need to prepare for a new mission, move it!"- Sonya screamed
This made Takeda be scared, he feared that his horrible nightmare would come true
"ok, fujin has contact us, his message was that an important white lotus weapon is missing; our mission is to locate the weapon as soon as we can, we´re going to divide in groups of two: Kenshi and Johnny, you will travel to the sky temple in order to get some information about the weapon
Cassandra & Kung Jin, I will take you 2 out of your comfort zone and you won´t do land missions, instead, you will stay here to check stuff and to give indications to every team about the believe location of the weapon.
Takeda & Jacqui, you will go to the now believe location of the weapon, if you find an enemy, don´t hesitate to kill them, Cassandra will confirm you the location.
The rest of you, for now you will stay here until further call; come on guys let's move!"- Sonya ordened
"Sonya , I need to talk to you"- Johnny said as Sonya quickly grab him by the right arm and guided him to the now abandoned cafeteria, making everyone wonder why did he decided to do that
"I don't have a lot of time, what do you want?"- Sonya asked
"My hands on you baby!"- Johnny shouted with an smile on his face
"Ugh! What did I said about calling me baby"- Sonya answered with an angry attitude while she left the room
"Wait!"- Johnny screamed, as Takeda approached him
"What happened?"- Takeda asked
"Nothing, just Sonya being the angry and selfish woman that she is"- Johnny answered
"Was she always like this?"- Takeda asked
"No, well maybe, but when she was my wife, she used to be the most beautiful and kind person I´ve ever met, to me, she´s still pretty, but… I don´t even know why she changed so much"- Johnny said as Takeda hugged him
"It´s ok"- Takeda said trying to calm him- "now let´s try to concentrate on the mission"- he suggested as the 2 left the cafeteria and headed to the new technologic quarters
"Ok guys, this map that Fujin sent indicates that the weapon is around… a beach near Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, don't worry Kenshi & Johnny will give you a lift over there, you won't need to pay for plane tickets"- Cassie told Jacqui
"Well thanks girl, I just hope that we don´t waste a lot of searching or running around like idiots"- Jacqui complained
"Why?"- Cassie asked
"´cause I wanna spend time with Takeda, not doing pointless missions"- Jacqui said
"Well… I think everyone here got paranoid after Shinnok´s invasion attempt, so they don't want to take any risks"
"Jacqueline Briggs! Cassandra Cage! Stop talking and focus on the current mission- Sonya ordened
"Yes Sir! Ok Cassie I see you later- Jacqui said as she headed to the air force zone
"General Blade, is this mission really important?"- Kung Jin asked
"umm not that much, what do you need to go somewhere?"- Sonya asked
"No no, just asking"- Kung Jin answered with an sarcastic smile as he left an confused sonya
"Cassie! Do you have a plan for taquito and Jacqueline?- Kung Jin asked
"Yes, and you´re gonna love it"- Cassie said while the 2 made an evil smile
Later that day, when Takeda & Jacqui arrived to the supposed location of the missing weapon, a private, beautiful beach with crystal clear Blue Ocean, white sand and palms around it, it was between the main road and a green jungle with lots of tall palms & green grass. It was Friday morning around there, really sunny with barely any clouds, it was a really beautiful day overall, but exhausting as well because of the really hot weather.
"Cassie, what the hell are you doing on the Special Forces computer?- Jin asked Cassie
"searching for the real location of that weapon"- Cassie answered
"What do you mean?"- Jin asked
"You really think that thing could be around the Caribbean, no it's probably around Asia"- Cassie answered
"Then… why did you send them to a whole other direction"- he asked
"oh Jin, you and your innocent questions, obviously I send them there because I want to hear if things get a little 'hot' between them, they have microphones on their ears so there's nothing to worry about, now call me or wake me up if something interesting happens while I'm searching please"- Cassie explained as both agreed to search clues of that weapon, but Jin really wasn't doing anything, so she decided to put her headphones really loud.
They had been walking for almost 2 hours with no results, not a single clue nor enemy around, not even a single person walking by, they got bored, tired and decided to sit around the sand for a while
"oh my, we have been searching for hours and we haven´t found nothing!"- Takeda screamed
"Yes, not even some bad guys to kill or kick their ass"- Jacqui agreed as both sat down on the sand since they were really tired.
Takeda started to think about Johnny & Sonya's relationship and the earlier situation of the 2.
"Is something wrong?"- Jacqui asked
"No, I was just thinking about Johnny and Sonya, it makes me sad how they're always fighting for stupid reasons"- Takeda said
"Yeah, It's totally sad, my dad says that they used to be really close in every aspect"- Jacqui agreed
"I believe you"- Takeda answered
"Did you know that Sonya has a tattoo that says 'cage' around her stomach?" Jacqui told him (no seriously, check out her game art closely and you can see it around page 3)
"really?"- He asked
"yes I have seen it myself"- Jacqui answered
*sigh* " I'm really scared that we might end up like them in the future"- Jacqui confess
"well, we're not like them"- Takeda said trying to comfort her as he began to get a little bit close to her
"we´re different, I really love you, my queen- Takeda convinced her as he gave her a kiss
"Hey Cassie You need to hear this!"- Jin screamed
"What are they enjoying their little trip?"- Cassie asked
"More than that"- Jin replied
"Takeda… we shouldn't be doing this right now, we need to focus on the mission"- Jacqui said, kinda moaning because he started to kiss her neck
"And we will do, we just need some rest baby"- Takeda replied
He started to kiss her repeatedly, making her a little bit horny ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°）while she grab him by the neck
"oh by the elder gods!"- Cassie screamed sarcastically as Kung Jin began to laugh
"Are you thinking what I believe It's gonna happen"- Kung Jin said as both made a pervert face
Out of nowhere, Sonya started to approach the room, Cassie and Jin heard steps as they mute the audio 'just in case', she entered the room to check the mission stats
"How you're doing with the mission?"- Sonya asked
"Good.. good mom, nothing to worry about"- Cassie answered
"Its general blade"- Sonya corrected her as Cassie just rolled her eyes
"Kung Jin, has Takeda & Jacqui found anything yet?"- She asked
"eh… not yet, don't worry their fine, the last time they spoke they said that they were tired and needed some rest- Jin replied
Sonya just nodded and started to inspect the room, checking that everything was in order while Cassie & Jin stood up nervous
"Why is the speaker on mute?"- Sonya asked
"It's because… they're taking a nap, so we decided to mute it because we keep hearing snorrings"- Cassie answered
"Hmp well, we all know that missions can be very unpredictable so I recommend you to keep it on"- Sonya suggested
"Yes general blade" both agreed as Sonya left the room, after that, Cassie and Jin stared at each other 5 seconds before they turn the speakers up, they just heard kissing noises
"Takeda…"- Jacqui moaned
Unfortunaly, Sonya heard the noise when she was leaving and she wanted to figure out who it was before blaming someone
"What babe?"- Takeda asked
"I'm nervous, what if someone see's us here or something, or someone from Special Forces finds out"- Jacqui said
"Don´t worry"- Takeda replied as he suddenly stopped the kissing, making her react confused, "we don't need to do this if you don't want to- He said, but not in an angry or disappointed way no, but in a calm and comprehensive way
"No no sweetie don't get mad"- Jacqui apologize
"It's fine"- He told her as he hold her hand
Jacqui didn't know exactly how to react or say, he just smiled as she felt kind of 'protected'
"let's just enjoy the view while we still can"- He suggested as Jacqui stood up and guided him to the ocean as they throw water at each other playfully, rolled around and just chill watching the sun and some birds & pelicans flying
Jacqui wanted to untied her cornrows so she told Takeda to help her, ending in laughs and a little awkard moments
"okay that was weird"- Cassie said
"Yeah and unespected, I though they´re going to do certain 'wild' things- Kung Jin agreed
"Me too, innocent taquito hehehe"- Cassie replied
Sonya originally was planning to talk seriously with everyone on the team, but after hearing what Takeda said and how they were enjoying their time together, she just left the door, reminiscing about the days she spend with Johnny, every single happy moment, wishing those days could come back, she just wanted to talk with Jacqui on a friendly way about their relationship
It was already afternoon, so Takeda decided to make a small fireplace with some wood that was left around; they found some coconuts on the palms as they climbed and grab 2 of them to drink them
"you know what I want to do on the next weekend, maybe we can go visit your mom and papa-san on the farm"- Takeda suggested
"I don't think you're welcome there after what happened on the woods"- Jacqui answered- especially because of my dad"
"I'll talk to him"- He informed her as he grab & cuddle with her now untied long brown hair
"Have I told you how gorgeous you look with your hair like this?"- he complemented
"Don't say that that"- Jacqui answered while blushing
"You know it's true sweetie"- Takeda replied as both began to admire the view of the whole beach, an relaxing atmosphere that the 2 really needed after the last mission
"now that I can remember, my last 'boyfriend' that had the courage to visit my family's farm ended up running away and scared to even see me again haha"- Jacqui told him
"Hahaha, what was his name?"- he asked
"Anthony da silva, he was a goalkeeper from Brazil, I remember he was brown skin, short curly hair, tall; he used to be a really nice guy with me, Don't know what happened to him after that day"- Jacqui described
"Maybe he couldn't handle Jax"- He joked
"Shut up you can't handle him either"- she replied
"Maybe"- he laugh
Jacqui just smiled and began to get asleep in his shoulders, she avoid it, but she couldn´t
"Cassandra Cage! I need to talk"- Sonya ordered
"Yes general blade"- Cassie replied- is something we need to inform or change
"No, has Kenshi & Johnny gave you any details about their current positions?"- she asked
"oh yes they had send a message that they didn't found anyone on the sky temple"- Cassie informed
"that´s very strange… well inform them immediately to come back to the headquarters along with Jacqui & Takeda, we will continue this mission until Monday"- she ordered
"why?"- Cassie asked
"Because I want you to be 100% sure about the weapon's location"- Sonya replied leaving Cassie very confused as she headed back to the room
"I wish general blade would let me go out for this mission"- Cassie confess
"For what?"- Jin asked
"To bother taquito and JB Jin!"- she answered
"You´re right, I want to make fun of 'the daughter of the zombie and the student of scorpion"- He agreed
"Jin, you don't need to act that hard, we´re just trying to have a good time, not end up like a dysfunctional family or similar to it"- Cassie affirmed
"What makes you think I give a shit about anyone in the team?"- Jin asked
Cassie didn´t replied, she just blew him off to avoid unnecessary discussions while she continued to search the weapon. 1 hour later, Takeda and Jacqui still were resting in the white sand, she slept in Takeda's shoulders in the meantime he embraced the hot weather as he tried to sleep as well
Jacqui woke up 'cause she felt a lot of pain in her injured arm
"still hurts"- he asked
"yes… can you give me a massage please?"- she requested as he obeyed and kept her comfortable, until kenshi & Johnny arrived in the same big plane Cassie's team used on other missions
"What the hell Tak?"- Johnny asked
"what, can't we rest for a little bit"- Takeda complained as the 2 got in
" we´re actually very lucky this time, we're continuing this mission until next Monday"- Johnny informed
"Great!"- both Jacqui and Takeda replied at the same time
After that, no one talked to each for the rest of the trip, it was an mysterious and consuming silence, only Takeda talk to Jacqui telepathically one moment, to tell her that he was planning to take her to a mall for some ice cream
On the HQ, it was 5:oo pm, a sunny and windy day still, when they arrived, everyone took their way to the locker rooms to change clothes and later leave
"son"- Kenshi said approaching to Takeda
"Papa- san, it's something wrong?- Takeda asked
"No my son, I just want to tell you that be careful out there, don't get in trouble"- Kenshi warned him
"Why should I? for now I'm not taking another mission, I just want to buy some ice cream for Jacqui and take a walk, if something happens I can defend myself, I'm not a kid anymore"- Takeda replied as he left
"Son!"- kenshi said as he left the HQ
After everyone left, both Takeda & Jacqui headed an open mall of medium size, clean and with white and gray colors over it. He was wearing a yellow t-shirt with black jeans and boots, Jacqui was wearing a red shirt with blue jeans and some white with red nike sneaker. Everything was cool, both ordered vanilla ice cream with liquid chocolate over them
They stopped walking in order to sit on a gray tabouret around the center of the mall as they finished their ice cream
"Can I ask you something?"- he asked
"Sure"- Jacqui responded
"If I ever get into a difficult situation, could I count on you to be by my side baby?"- He asked
"Of course! Why are you asking me this?- Jacqui answered, holding his hand
"Don't know, maybe I'm scared about something, just can't tell exactly what it is"- Takeda expressed some of his thoughts while the 2 observed the children running, other couples kissing or just spending time together and 2 guys passing by
"Look at these 2 together, ugh gross"- one of the guys complained, referring to Takeda & Jacqui, she heard the words of the guy, this time she couldn't control herself
"What did you just said?"- Jacqui challenge the guy
"I said that you and him as a couple is fucking disgusting!"- the guy shouted angry, without any reason really
"Hey hey hey calm down buddy!"- Takeda argue defending her
"Oh you want me to calm down huh? How bout we solve this with a fight huh? Or what you're afraid to defend your nig-
He didn't let him finish, he gave him two kicks in the chest as he broke his left arm, making him scream in pain and running away as soon as the other guy tried to beat Takeda but he didn't have any chance on defeating the shirai ryu ninja , Jacqui joined and finish the conflict with an powerful punch, breaking his nose as the 2 ran away like cowards
After everything finished, Jacqui sat down on the floor, crying, confused, as the people around watched the scene, some in the anger, others confused as well and some just didn't care at all
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm here"- Takeda comfort her, cleaning her tears
"Why? Why did they had to do this? They don't know me, who I am or who you are, those people only care about how we look, not our emotions"
Takeda hugged her as he cried as well, he couldn't stand seeing her like this, her emotions were so strong he could feel her pain
"I don't like to see you like this, calm down, beautiful"- he comfort her telepathically
"can we leave and go to my apartment please?"- Jacqui suggested telepathically, he agreed as he helped her standing up
A girl who saw the conflict on the distance decided to give them a little gift, 2 lollipops that she bought earlier in the day
"sir sir! This is for you and your girlfriend"- the girl said
"oh, thanks so much"- Takeda replied
"jejeje no problem, adios!"- the girl shouted as she ran to a candy store while Jacqui laugh
When they arrived to Jacqui's apartment, the 2 left their stuff on her bed, but they sat down on the couch, it was now 6:15 pm, they skipped dinner, they slowly began to cuddle, he was holding Jacqui's arms behind her back, especially her injured arm
"Are you feeling better now?"- he asked
"Kind of… it just that my whole life has been like this"- she confess
"Don't think about it now, relax sweetie"- he suggested
A few minutes later, Takeda decided to read Jacqui's mind without telling her
"I can't express how much I love you right now, finally I have someone that truly cares deeply about me aside from my family & Cassie, I love you Takahashi Takeda"- Jacqui though as she suddenly kiss him, both kissed with such love and passion, they continued until they fall asleep, hugging each other with an smile on their faces
The next morning, Jacqui received an message from Kung Jin, she wondered what could he talk about since it was really rare from him to talk to anyone on the team
To be continued…
