Chapter 4 - The Unlikeliest of Allies Part 1
Concentration broken once again but this time for good intentions, for the younger male was quite capable of obliterating that inhuman creature by himself, Pein began to stand up slowly.
"You were right to disturb me." Pein said without looking at his partner.
"It's a young girl. I think it's a police officer of some sort. What should we do?"
"I'll tell you what were going to do. We are going to kill her if she tries to arrest either one of us. Do you understand?"
"Yeah but what good will that do? She has her boss on the other end of a radio."
"Well we will simply kill her boss if he decides to turn up to our hide out uninvited. I will show both of them what true pain really is. But for now we will see what her intentions are."
With this said the two stood there waiting for the door to open and the young girl to come through. With a slow movement of the front entrance it began to open.
Quietly the girl walked through the doors, her gun pointed forward, ready for anything that came her way, she walked in to the main hall and found it to be empty. She looked around to see any signs of life but there wasn't any, she moved into the centre of the main hall, at the foot of the grand staircase and turned to look back at the door. Nothing, no one was here and yet it felt like she was being watched, the young girl turned back to the staircase when without warning there stood a man directly in front of her, his cloak blowing in the wind caused by the open doors. He grabbed her by the throat and began lifting her into the air.
"Who are you? And what business do you have here?, little girl"
Barely able to breath she took a deep breath and said "I'm here to find those responsible for the explosion earlier today resulting in innocents dying" She then heard another voice coming from behind her. "I knew he was trying to get us killed Pein! He's betrayed us. He sent us up here and then told the police where we were"
"Calm yourself, if that was the case they would of sent an entire squad to try and deal with us, instead we have a little girl. So tell me who you are and how many more are coming , then I might let you live" Pein loosened his grip to allow the girl to speak. With a gulp of air she opened her mouth
"I'm Officer Ryan, and a member of S.T.A.R.S. There's no one else with me now let me go!"
"Liar!" The voice from behind her started to get more violent.
"If your really on your own then why do you have a radio!"
"I'll ask again, How many more are here with you? Answer now!"
Pein started to tighten his grip once more, trying to get her to speak, she struggled against the grip that Pein was inflicting, but to no avail.
"Oh forget it Pein, just kill her and we'll leave. Then I'll show that bastard what betrayal really is."
"No! I wont kill her, she will talk. Once we torture her supervisor."
"He wont come unless I give the signal! Oops…"
"Ah so if we destroy your only way of contact between the two of you, he's bound to come running. After all I did hear you both saying I love you."
"You leave him alone or I'll…"
"Or you'll do what?" Pein said menacingly. The young officer quietened knowing that her lovers life was in danger and she didn't want to say anything else stupid.
Pein took her radio. He sent a distress signal to the supervisor and then put it on the ground. With one stomp the radio was in pieces in the spot where it was laid.
"He will come now. He's bound too. Knowing that his favourite Rookie is in danger"
And with that, the two men left the young girl in the hallway coughing and gasping for air.
End of Chapter 4
