"And you're sure about this?" Larken asked, disgust obvious in his voice. The man in the other end of the line nodding, "Yes sir. Wolfe is completely back on-line. And Cena is right with him. He's still a little fuzzy, but give him time and he'll remember everything too."
"I want you to keep me updated," Larken said gruffly. The younger man sighed, "Yes sir. I'll call you as soon as I hear about their new plan."
Larken chuckled, "Good solider. Now, be good, and if they suspect anything, eliminate the threat." Dwayne laughed, "Don't worry, sir. I'm a trained expert."
"You're playing with this stuff?" John asked, his eyes wide in amazement. Randy shrugged, a small blush on his cheeks, "It's nothing. I mean, it's my thing. I've always like cars, even before the chips. Hell, you were pretty good at it too. Back in Basic. Damn, we rebuilt a tank from scratch after it was blown up in 'raq."
John nodded, reaching up to let his hand graze the frame of the Hummer's now bullet-hole covered door.
"So, how are you gonna fix this?" John asked softly, knowing how much the car meant to the brunette. Randy shrugged, "I don't know if I can. I mean, I never have the time. The engine is shot. The alternator is burnt out, the ignition switch's blown. I don't have the time to fix this any more. Maybe back when I just had the shop and wasn't trying to fix my life. She'll just have to wait. There's no other choice."
"You know, wise man once told me that if you do what every one else wants, you're just the world's bitch. Do your own thing," John said, resting a gentle hand on Randy's shoulder. Randy smiled, "Yeah, I was pretty badass back then, huh?"
He rolled his neck and sighed, "Maybe I can work on her when I'm not traveling." John smiled, "Well, if you need any help to fix this, you know where I'm gonna be."
"Where would that be?" Randy asked curiously. John shrugged, "Eh, saving your ass. Helping you do whatever the hell we're gonna get into this week."
Randy just grinned.
Tada, now you see who the traitor is... was it way too obvious? Or did you not expect it? I'm trying to build up a plot right now, but with my insane family, it's taking a while to come up with solid chapters. I hope everyone is still here for the long haul... it is going to get better. Also, if you have an idea that you want in this story or anything else you'd like me to write, PLEASE let me know... I love feedback.
R&R everybody!
