No fighting was easier said than done though somehow I managed it for the most part. It wasn't like I'd go out of my way, most of the time it just happened. Half the time it was just me sticking up for Abel who after a few drinks would go looking for trouble. While the other half was me defending my honor, well my father's honor anyway. Even as I managed to move up the ranks it still felt like I wasn't doing it for me.

It was like I was nine years old again, knowing that if I didn't win than I would be a failure. History it seemed was repeating itself and I didn't even notice it at first. It wasn't until I had just become a Capitan about seven months before the first attack. Abel and I were sitting in our favorite spots in a small bar just off of base.

He was watching the news as it flashed cross the TV as I watched a young red haired Omega woman a few tables away. "My God she's hot…" I muttered as I nudged his shoulder slightly, "Check her out."

"Hmm?" Abel answered as he peeled his eyes away from the screen, "She's out of your league." He said simply before he turned back to the screen.

I glared at him, "What do you mean she's out of my league? I'm fucking awesome. I could get her with one statement."

"Oh yeah hey baby want to do it with a Captain?" He answered with a grin, "Why don't you try something that won't get you slapped?"

"Like your pick up lines are any better."

"What pick-up lines? I'm going to mate with your sister." He chuckled as he picked up his beer, "So as your brother and wing man I'm telling you to try something else."

By that time he had managed to wiggle his way into my little sister's heart, it took nearly eight years but finally Annabelle had agreed to come and be his Omega. It drove me crazy since I still felt that while she was old enough to mate she was still my little sister. "Okay Bastard and what do you think I should try?"

"Oh what makes me a Bastard?" He asked as he watched me confused.

"You're going to fuck my sister right?"

"Yeah?"

"Then you're a Bastard." I said calmly as I took a sip of my own beer as I thought of what to say. But as I turned back to the Omega she was already gone. "Well fuck…"

Again he chuckled, "Like I said she was out of your league and really she wasn't your type anyway."

It was slightly unexpected since up until then I didn't think I showed any clues that I had a type, "Oh really? And you know what my 'type' is?"

"Yep, Omega."

I rolled my eyes, "Really? Well no shit."

"I wasn't done, with blonde hair and blue eyes."

After a moment I nodded, "Okay and is that really a bad thing?"

"Nope but I also know you like male Omegas more."

Then I laughed, "Now you've lost your mind. Have you seen how the male Omegas act? Look? They're so fucking weak it's not funny." As I said it I looked down in my glass as a sense of Deja vu washed over me, I never admitted it before but the thought had been forced into my head for years. "They aren't worth the time or the energy to mate with…" I stopped quietly as I just stared down at my reflection in the beer. "Hell they can't even raise good kids."

Slowly he reached over and took my arm, "So I heard what your old man has to say about them so what do you think of them?"

"Drop it Abel…" I answered, "That's an order."

"Tell me the truth you're looking for that one Omega boy to call your Sparrow or Bluebird or whatever kind of bird you want."

Slowly I stared into his eyes, "I said that was an order, now drop it."

He didn't bat an eye, "Orders are for those that follow. And we both know I never follow anyone."

"You follow me, bastard."

"Only cause I know you won't get my ass killed." He smirked as he paid his tap, "Also I know I can out run your ass any day."

With a sigh I stood up and followed him out, "Yeah whatever bastard. So when does my sweet innocent sister arrive?"

"Oh now she's sweet and innocent?"

I wanted to punch that smart mouth of his but I just pushed him aside instead, "Yes sweet and innocent." As Abel was about to say something I stopped, "Wait…guess who's here…" I muttered motioning over to a tall Alpha with the coldest eyes I have ever seen.

Abel let out a soft growl, "What are they doing here?"

"I don't know but if the government shit is here than something must be up." We both watched as he walked past us and into the bar.

Abel whispered as we slowly turned towards the base, "Should I let Toni know to watch out for this guy?"

"Him and Kiku, in fact I'll let the other Captains know." While the government was trying to get the military motivated in case of war most of us didn't trust them at all. They were in it for money or for other sick motives.

So the only ones we trusted was ourselves. Toni we had known since he joined the army a few years earlier as a way to make more money for his family. Kiku on the other hand was a quiet Alpha that was looking for his place in this world. Like Abel I trusted both men with my life and likewise they felt the same. "I'll call them as soon as we get back but shouldn't we follow him instead?"

I shook his head, "No not him."

"Oh we could take him if we needed to." Abel answered as I took his arm and pulled him away. "What?"

It wasn't for a while that I answered him but when I did I knew I sent shivers down his spine, "I could take him in my sleep but I also know he's in charge of bioweapons."

"You mean?"

"Yeah and he's not afraid to use them."
