Chapter seven

Big changes

Kevin arrived home the next day and kissed Holly as soon as he got there.

"Hello beautiful." He said.

"Well some one is having a good day." She said.

"Not really. A friend of mine died on our mission."

"Oh. I'm so sorry Kevin."

"It's ok." He took off his shoes and sat on the bed. "How are the girls?"

"They're doing ok." She smiled as she sat down next to him.

He grabbed her hand and looked at her.

"I'm sorry I wasn't here for Christmas."

"It's ok. The girls are too young to actually open presents or do anything so…"

"But I know how much it meant to you, this being their first Christmas. Don't worry I'll make it up to you."

"How?"

"Just wait and see." He kissed her and she smiled.

"So, the girls are asleep right?"

"Yeah."

"And we're all alone?"

"Yeah."

Kevin held out his hand and the door closed as Holly just smiled and kissed Kevin


Kevin arrived at work the next day and noticed a lot of people in the briefing, so many people that the Boss had come out and told everyone to head to the gym. Kevin changed and grabbed his stuff and headed to the gym. He saw Anakin and Ty and sat down next to them.

"What's going on?" Kevin asked.

"'Some big changes.' At least that's what he said to us." Ty said.

The Boss soon told everyone to settle down and stood in the front.

"All right. It's the start of a new year and we're going to be making some changes. First off I'd like to start by saying we're changing our organization's name. We are now SARTA, Special Advanced Recon and Tactics Agency. "

"So what does that mean?" Kevin asked.

"As you may have noticed there are a lot more people here then what we usually have at this specific agency. Other agencies are using the new method as well."

"And this would be?" Ty asked.

"Let him get to it." Kevin said.

"Thank you. What this means is that you will be working with squads, a team. No more solo missions. Kevin you'll keep Alpha. Ty you get Omega, Anakin you will get Bravo, Zayne will get Charlie, Jaden will get Wraith and Bastila, the new guy or I should say girl…"

Everyone looked back to see the girl who gave a little wave and flipped her hair over her shoulder.

"… You will get Rogue. Now we will have another group, but it will be independent. It will only get its orders from me as of right now. I will oversee all of you guys.

"Don't all the groups answer to just you?" Anakin asked.

"No they don't. Kevin, you've been promoted."

Kevin was shocked and surprised.

"Promoted? To what?"

"You are in charge of Alpha directly, but you will also oversee all of the other groups, minus Delta for now. In the future I may give Delta over to you."

Kevin just sat there dumbfounded.

"You know you have to breathe some time." Ty whispered into his ear.

"Now like I said, Delta will be independent and will consist of the best of the best. Meaning the best men of your groups will go to Delta. Now, I don't know who the best are of the new squads, but I do know about Alpha. Kevin, any recommendations?"

Kevin was still staring off into space.

"…Promoted…"

"Kevin." Anakin snapped his fingers in front of his face and he snapped out of it.

"What? What? I'm sorry."

"Any recommendations for Delta squad out of Alpha?"

Kevin looked across the room at his squad and smiled.

"Alpha two, James. He's my best."

"Alright. James you will be the first to Delta. I will find a replacement for Alpha, but until I do you will remain with Alpha."

"Yes sir." He said saluting.

"Any questions so far?" Boss asked.

"There is more?" Kevin asked.

"Yes." Boss walked up to each of the squad leaders and handed them a badge. It looked like a FBI badge only it had SARTA on it and underneath it was spelled out what it meant.

"These are your new badges. Now I have to say don't abuse your power."

"What power?" Jaden asked.

"You guys are now the most powerfully equipped force in the nation, maybe in the world."

"What do you mean?" Zayne asked.

"With these badges you can do whatever you want and whenever you want. You only get orders from me and I get mine from the president himself."

"So we can do whatever we want to with these badges?" Anakin asked.

"Yes."

"So if we robbed a bank and the cops tried to stop us we just show our badge and they'd let us go?"

Boss paused for a moment before answering. "Yes, but you…"

"Awesome."

"But you better not do that. You can get away with any crime, but if you do a crime, you'll face the consequences."

"Which are?" Ty asked.

"SARTA."

"I'm not going to hunt after Anakin, even if he does rob a bank or something."

"If you don't have authorization from me or another official at SARTA they will send a team after you. And it won't be you or a squad from this agency. It will be one from another agency, one that has no connection with you."

"I see."

"Oh and one more thing. Squad leaders are advised to build their own lightsabers.

"A lightsaber? Seriously? I get my own lightsaber?" Kevin asked.

"Yes. But you have to build it yourself."

"How do I do that?"

"There are some papers on getting started, but you have to do it yourself."

"Cool.

Yeah. So those are the big changes. Any questions?"


1 year and five months ago…

August 12, 2006. 7:15 A.M.

The phone rang again for the past ten minutes. He couldn't take it anymore. Anakin climbed out of bed and answered the phone.

"Who the hell is this and what do you want?"

There was silence.

"What did you just say to me?" It was a girl's voice.

"Oh, I'm sorry baby. I didn't…

"What the hell to you so long to answer your god damn phone?"

"I had a rough night last night."

"Out drinking again huh?"

"We were just celebrating a…"

"Never mind. Get your ass home now! We have to talk!"

Uh oh. He thought.

"About what?"

"Get over here and you'll find out. Now!"

"Ok, don't have such a bitc…"

"If you say it you will regret it."

"I'm coming."

Anakin hung up the phone and took a shower to wake up and after getting dressed left.


He arrived at home a couple minutes later. He unlocked the door and was met by a maid leaving.

"She is in the living room." The maid said as she left.

Anakin nodded and went to the living room where she was sitting on the couch waiting.

"Hey Padmé."

"Don't hey me!"

Anakin sat down on the couch next to her.

"So what is so damn important it couldn't wait…"

"I'm pregnant."

"…After I woke up and…what did you say?"

"I'm pregnant."

"That's…That's amazing." He hugged her and she smiled at him.

"It is?"

"Of course it is. You always mentioned about starting a family after we got married, and here we are married and now about to have a baby."

"I didn't think you'd want to be a father."

"Are you kidding? This is going to be great. There's going be some changes around here yeah, but amazing…Wait, why were you all upset at me?"

"Because you went drinking with your buddies and you didn't come home last night."

"So you called work and knew I'd crash there?"

"Yeah, you could have at least called."

"I'm sorry baby." He kissed her and held her in his arms.

"I forgive you. Just promise me one thing."

"What's that?"

"You'll be here for the birth."

"I will."

"Promise?"

"Promise."


9 months later…

May 10, 2007. 3:58 P.M.

"Anakin!"

"What?"

"I said did you get the coordinates?"

"Yes I have them, but what difference does it make they're already…"

"It's not where they were, it where they are going."

"Still we'll never make it in time."

"You underestimate me."

Boss punched a button on his car the tires rotated inward and the car hovered.

"Holy…"

"Where did they go?"

Anakin punched in the coordinates and Boss smiled and pulled back a lever and they were gone.

"That was bloody amazing!" Anakin said once Boss had landed the car and they had arrived.

"Yeah I know. Now focus."

"Yes sir."

They approached the junkyard rifles ready.

"Any movement?" Boss asked.

"None so far. All I can tell is…" An alarm blared on his glasses. It was a message. He opened it by blinking and it was Padmé. She was sweating and had pink gown on and it looked like she wasn't at home it looked like…

"Anakin! Get your ass here now. They twins are coming." The message ended and Boss must have been listening because before Anakin could say anything Boss reacted.

"I know you want to go, but we have to do this."

"But sir."

"Do you want your kids to live in a safe world?"

"Yes sir."

"Then do this and I'll explain everything to your wife."

"Everything? Even the part where I work for the government and kill people?"

"We'll see."

They walked through the junkyard and arrived at a small building. They walked in to see two computers at a desk and a big map of the world with pins in certain places. Anakin walked up to the map while Boss started typing on the computer.

"These are people from our organization. They are pinning them where they killed them at. Look, here is Jorak and Mace." Anakin said pointing at North Korea.

"I think they are trying to pinpoint where we are, but since we are all over it's hard to pinpoint us exactly." Boss said.

"Well it's only a matter of time."

"Or they could just be killing us to get rid of us, because we are the only ones that can stop them."

"We are?"

"Well, that guy you killed in North Korea was force-sensitive and so are you so yeah I think we are."

"Good point."

"Uh oh."

"What?" Anakin walked over to Boss on the computer and looked over his shoulder.

"Looks like their have been some big changes since you killed their leader in North Korea."

"I didn't kill him, Mace did." Anakin said defensively

"Doesn't matter, his son has taken over."

"His son? Do you have a picture?"

"Nope."

"Great, so we don't know what this guy looks like. For all we know he could be outside right now watching us."


Meanwhile outside at a safe distance…

"Are they inside?"

"Yes sir."

"Do it."

The man pressed the detonator as the first man climbed into a car and drove off.


"Something isn't right."

"How do you know?"

"I feel it."

"Feel it, but how…"

Boss grabbed Anakin and jumped outside the building, which blew up just seconds later.

"How did you know that was going… Wait you're force-sensitive too aren't you?"

"Yes, but if you tell anyone I'll kill you."

"Why do you want to hide it?"

"I have my reasons. Just don't tell anyone. Understood?"

"Yes sir."

"Now let's go. I hear you're having twins."

They climbed into the car and it took off back home.


Present day…

January 14, 2008. 8:45 A.M.

Kevin looked at himself in the mirror and liked what he saw. He wore his regular everyday clothes, jeans and a t-shirt and a hat slanted sideways.

"Going to work?"

Kevin turned around to see Holly still in bed under the covers.

"Yeah, I get to wear plain clothes to work now."

"That's nice."

"I suppose." Kevin sat down next to her. He leaned over and kissed her. "You should get dressed."

"Why? My parents won't be here for another two hours and you don't have to go to work for another hour. So stay, come back to bed. The girls are still asleep. We could mess around some more." She grinned at him and he just smiled back.

"You know I want to. But I have to go to work early. I'm running some more drills in case we are needed."

"Please?"

He kissed her and then put on his shoes.

"I love you."

"I love you too." She said somewhat rejected.

"Don't forget about tonight."

"I won't. Where are we going?"

"That is a surprise."

Kevin headed out and smiled.


Kevin entered his new office and smiled. He had an office. He sat at his desk and turned to his computer and then turned around the room once.

He opened his bag and took out two picture frames. One was a picture of him and Holly back when they first started going out. He put that on his desk facing him. The other picture was of him holding his two newborn girls. He put that on his desk as well facing him. There, not it seemed like his office.

Ty entered his office and threw something at him.

"There you go."

Kevin looked at it and it was a plaque with his name on it.

Ty smiled and left. Kevin put the plaque on his desk facing outward.

"Now it's my office."

Kevin relaxed and put his feet on his desk just as James came into the room.

"We've got a call."

"Already? We've only been practicing for a week."

"I know, but still. Only Alpha, Omega and Bravo are going though."

"Oh, so just me, Ty, and Anakin?"

"Yep."

Kevin got up and they headed down the hallway to the new and bigger briefing room.

"You think I'll have an office when I become Delta leader?"

"Who says you'll be Delta leader?" Kevin asked.

"I think I know I will be."

"Yeah you will. As for the office part, who knows?"

They arrived at the briefing room to see Omega, Alpha, and Bravo already waiting.

"Ok, we've got a lead on the organization we have been looking for." Boss said.

"Where at?"

"Downtown Detroit. We found Zaren. He is the son of Marcus and took over the organization. Three of you ran into him in North Korea. We took the pictures from your glasses and have been searching for him since. We spotted him in Detroit about two hours ago. He's at a local hotel. He's in town meeting some client about purchasing a nuclear warhead. Where he got this warhead is still undetermined."

"So what do we do? Capture him and make him tell us where he got the warhead?" Ty asked.

"No, he'd never tell us." Kevin said.

"Correct, this is why you let the meeting take place and tap all communications. He'll probably have the client see the warhead on a video monitor. If you tapped it we can trace it back and I'll have Charlie, Rogue, and Wraith head there and take control."

"So what if he doesn't have any communications with where the warhead is?" Anakin asked.

"You'll follow Zaren and see where he goes."

"What about the client?"

"She's one of us."

"I see. Does she know we're coming?"

"Well she's more like black market. We hired her to find Zaren and negotiate any means necessary. She doesn't know you'll be coming. Any other questions?"

No one said anything.

"All right. The floor is yours Kevin."

"Guys, we leave tonight. Here is the plan…"
