Saving an Angel
Chapter 11: It has begun.

No pov

Diego sat on the couch with Maime on his leg leaning on his belly sleeping.

"Diego. How did things go?"

Diego looked up and saw Margret looking from the stairs and started walking down.

"Fine. Got my hands dirty. I got some information. Learned my girlfriend may still be alive."

Margret sat down by Diego.

"That's wonderful, but I saw her die. That young man driving that car died too."

"Why didn't you go back for the bodies?"

"I was more worried about you, and it...it had been a week."

Diego caught that and pressed it.

"A week? How did you know it had been a week? A week since what?"

Margret started to stutter.

"Well?"

Margret snatched Maime from Diego and pointed a Glock in his face.

"I'm sorry...They made me do it."

Diego sat there eyeing Margret and Maime.

"When I get to the city. I will kill all of them. Even you."

Margret nodded and ran out of the house and jumped in the hay truck. She floored the gas in an attempt to get away from Diego.

Diego ran to tell Courtney what was going to happen. He left her a gun and told her to open the door for no one. Only him then he ran to the barn and looked around for any means of transportation.

"It's a farm. There needs to be something! A car! A motorcycle..."

Diego saw a tarp covering something. He walked and pulled the tarp off...and smiled.

"Speak of the Devil, and he shall appear."

Diego was looking at a Harley. It looked brand new.

"Please. Let this work."

Diego started the Harley and smiled.

"I need to get as much as I can carry."

Diego ran into the basement and grabbed his tactical vest, mags, weapons, side arms and two combat knives. He then ran up and mounted the Harley and sped off to the city.

In the city.
Margret sped into the Metroma Hotel. She was stopped by an armed guard. He raised his rifle to her face.

"Margret White! I need to see 'Him'!"

"Why?"

Margret held up Maime and the guard's face went white.

"Is that his child?"

"Yes."

"Go."

Eventually.

Margret walked into a very large door and saw a man.

"I have him."

"Good. Did you kill him?"

"No. Was I supposed to?"

"No, you did what I asked. Charlie!"

Charlie walked into the room.

"Yes?"

"Take the boy to room 992. Then enjoy yourself."

Charlie chuckled and walked out.

"What are you going to do with him?"

"Give him to his mother..."

"Wha..."

Margret looked down and saw blood. She had been shot in the stomach.

"I did what you asked...why?"

"No one is innocent in this city. No mercy!"

He began to shoot Margret even more.

"Johnny! Kurlz! Get rid of this body. Do what you wish with it. For tomorrow we are at war!"

With Diego.

I sped throughout the city and arrived at Joe's. Joe looked out the window and waved me in.

"Joe. Where are Buck and Sid?"

Joe nodded towards a door with an X scratched in.

"Never to far from home huh James?"

"Never to far."

I opened the door and there was a staircase going down to another door. I knocked on the door and a eye latch opened.

"Hi! I'm looking for the Resistance."

Now I'm looking down a barrel of a shotgun.

"And a clean pair of pants."

"How do I know I can trust you?"

I grabbed the barrel and put in to my forehead.

"I know Sid and Buck. Now let me in."

"Let him in John. He's the guy we need."

The shotgun went back inside and the door opened. I saw Sid and Buck waiting for me.

"Guys, it's time."

Sid nodded and walked to a door in the back. Buck stepped up to me.

"James, you do realize that when we start there is no going back?"

"I just need you to get their attention so I can get in. When I'm in I'll take out any heavy duty firepower they got. When that's over, we go in at take the building by force."

Buck thought and looked back at me.

"How do you suppose we can distract them long enough?"

"Confuse them. Put a few men in surrounding buildings and have them take pot shots( Quick sniper rifle shots, it doesn't have to be lethal.) and then they can move from floor to floor, room to room. Have some men on the ground to suppress the rest of them. All I need is ten minutes."

Buck nodded.

"Sounds like a plan. Then what?"

"You, Sid clear out the building and I'll go up to the 9th and penthouse floor."

"...Let's do this."

Buck walked to the door Sid went in and kicked it open. The room looked like an old rundown warehouse building, but it was big and inconspicuous. The Resistance looked up at Buck and he raised an AK-47 above him and spoke.

"Listen up! Change of plans mates! We move now!"

Yyeeeaaaahhhh!

Men scrambled to gather weapons, ammunition, vehicles.

Buck yelled out some names.

"Sean, Peyton, McDonnell, Davi, Depenardo, Yean, Volke, Willis! Do everything this man says."

Buck turned and nodded at me.

The men saluted me and I gave them one.

"What do you need us to do sir?"

"I need you guys to create a distraction for the initial assault and to make a big enough window so I can infiltrate the building. I need you guys to get sniper rifles, and spotter scopes. Sean and Peyton I need you guys in the building on the right of the target building, McDonnell and Davi same on the opposite side. Depenardo, Yean, Volke, Willis I need you guys to do this same, but I need you guys to make distractions for the others when they move to new positions and floors. I want you guys with belt fed fully automatic weapons. Go! Get your gear! Meet me back here!"

They left to gather the gear they require. I stripped down and put my combat gear on and got my weapons ready.

Meanwhile with the Undeads

Charlie walked into the penthouse doors and looked around in a semi panicked state.

"Boss? Boss?"

"Charles, I'm directing a movie. With Shira Johanson as my lead actress. Now wait outside. Ill be out in a few. Come on sweet heart answer my question. Do you want to see your family again?"

Shira was crying and sniffling.

"...(Sniffle) Yes."

The man smiled and put the camera closer to her face.

"Yes. More tears. Ok, now you ask me a question."

Shira took a few deep breathes and spoke.

"uumm, what's your name? Your real name?"

The man smiled sadistically.

"My name is Dag Simons. My turn. What do you think will happen in the next 24 hours?"

Shira thought for a minute.

"...Hopefully, something good."

"Great, good as in...you want another round with the boys?"

Shira's eyes went wide as plates.

"No! Please! No!"

Dag drooped the camera and screamed in Shira's face.

"Heyy! Shut the fuck up! This is my show! Mine! I didn't finish my question! Shut up and listen you stupid whore!"

Shira cried more and looked down in fear.

"O..o..okay...f..f..finish..your question."

"Thank you...Or do you wish to hold your son in your arms?"

Shira went silent. No tears, no scream for mercy.

"You have my son?"

"Answer my question. A round with the boys or hold your son?"

"Please. I choose my son."

Dag looked her in the eyes and smiled. He whispered in her ears.

"Wise choice. I'll be right back. Now say goodbye to the camera."

Shira's lip shook and she said in a shaky breath.

"B..b..bye."

Dag smiled.

"Buh-bye."

Dag walked out of the small room and met with Charlie who was waiting for him leaning on a wall smoking a cigarette.

"Boss. We have a problem."

Dag looked at him with curiosity.

"What kind of problem?"

"The resistance are going to strike soon. What do you wanna do?"

Dag smiled.

"Let them. It's Diego, he's coming for her and the boy. We will give him a fight for his life. Also, get the boy and give let his mamma hold him. That's the last act of kindness i give to her."

Charlie nodded and walked off.

"Come on Diego. You and I are gonna have fun."

Meanwhile!
No pov

Diego and his sniper teams were in position and waiting for the fuse to hit the dynamite. Diego pressed the button on his radio.

"Buck. Light it up."

'...Roger. All sniper units, take out the sentries ( soldier who wait at the front gates of a facility) and the machine gunners.'

Then a buzz came on the radio.

'Diego, when you get up there. Wait for me. Im coming up there with you. Sid out.'

Then Buck came back.

'On my 1. 3...2...1.'

Then all Hell broke loose.

Sorry this one took longer than expected. My puppy died and school is relentless.
