To everyone who's been patiently (or not so patiently) waiting for June:
Before anyone gets too excited, this is not an update. It's a request, actually. I need a beta or two to help me with the sequels (yes, there's more than one) that I'm writing for Soldiers of Fortune. I need someone who's good with characterization, to make sure that I'm not screwing up our beloved characters for either NCIS or Dark Angel, and someone who's not afraid to tell me if the plot that I have isn't working out.
Any takers?
Also, a sneak peek at the next installment of the Soldiers of Fortune saga:
"Mr. – Agent – DiNozzo," Doctor Anderson corrected himself. "I'll be honest with you; your brother is not in good shape."
"He got hit by a car," Tony felt compelled to point out.
"Logan has suffered several major injuries," Anderson told him. "Fractures of several ribs, his right femur, and his left radius. Lacerations of several large muscles in his legs. A dislocated left shoulder, and both hips. And-"
"And-" Tony prompted, when Anderson trailed off.
"His spinal column was severely damaged, and he suffered serious intracranial damage," Anderson finished, a grim tone in his voice. "Agent DiNozzo, your brother is likely to be paralyzed when he wakes up. If-" he corrected himself, quietly. "If he wakes up."
"When," Tony told him, to the man's surprised expression. "Doc, my brother is a fighter. He's not going to let this stop him. He is waking up."
"You do have to prepare yourself-"Anderson started, but Tony cut him off.
"He is waking up," he said, emphatically. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go back and sit with my brother."
Getting up, he headed down the hallway back toward Logan's room. He was only a few feet away from the door when he started to get an uneasy feeling in the pit of his stomach.
And a second later, the doorway exploded, sending him flying back down the hallway…
