I would LOVE to thank SapphireJKH for her support of this story. The fact that you take the time to leave a comment mean a lot to me. 3 so again thank you. Anyway I decided to make Storm Shadow survive so there is the answer to the other chapter where I said I wasn't sure what to do about him. COVER GIRL! I've been wanting to put her into the story and now I have finally found what to do with her! YAY!
Once again Avery fell asleep in a cramped place. But this time because she had a weapon to defend herself with, even though it was only a wrench it was a weapon none the less, she was not plagued with dreams where she was defenseless. She was startled awake when the metal that hid her started to slide up. "How you doing V?" Cybergirl Asked her.
"I ache in ways that makes me wish I was still in the infirmary." They shared a laugh about that. Earlier when Avery had just gotten out of the infirmary she had been complaining that there was nothing that could make her want to go back again. "Yeah I'm kidding when I say I want to be back there just so ya know. Oh! What happened with Snake eyes and that other guy?"
"His name is Storm Shadow. And he got away. Snake is giving his report to General Hawk, he'll be back soon. Then we send a team out to make sure we have rid the nest of all Vipers." Cybergirl looked longingly at the direction of the door.
"Ugh. Does that mean I have to stay in here longer? Cause I'm seriously getting cramped and I don't like it anymore." Avery Watched the small smirk that played at the edges of Cybergirl's lips. "I'm honestly serious.
"Let me show you where I hid." She lead Avery over to the key pad and hit several things, then she typed in a password. Once she stepped away from the keypad she went over to the wall opposite the desk. "Password is my name."
"Sa-" Cybergirl Put a hang over Avery's mouth.
"Nope. Don't want enemy ears to hear it do you?" Cybergirl got in then typed a few things looking at the screen she cursed. "Get in." Avery did as told and Cybergirl closed the door. "Stay quiet." The screen in front of them lit up to show the techie room they had just been in. A guy in a black suit and the guy from before, Storm Shadow, entered once more.
"The desk. She is somehow hiding in the desk." Storm Shadow said. They could hear what he was saying through a pair of earbud headphones.
Cybergirl brought up a screen that had weapons and chose one. "Take this you bastards." Using a joystick she pointed the gun at the men and fired. Storm Shadow was fast enough and observant enough to get out of the way of the shooting guns path. "Damn it." Cybergirl hissed and brought up another screen. Typing another thing alarms started to sound. Then bringing a microphone close to her lips she spoke. "Vipers are in the nest. I repeat Vipers are in the nest. The Shadow is is the communications chamber. Show is communications chamber." Putting the mic away she pulled up another screen. This one had camera's from all around the base logged in. And they watched as Joe's poured out of nearly every room, weapons drawn and ready to fight.
"That'll get them for sure." Cybergirl said.
"Where is is Storm Shadow?" Avery whispered to Cybergirl. That sure got the geeks attention.
"What!" The screen changed again as she brought up the camera of the Techie room.
Nothing. No Joe's and definitely no Storm Shadow. Suddenly his face was seen in the camera "Boo." Then the screen became blank.
The wall opposite where they entered opened. "In. Stay." Was all Cybergirl told her. Suddenly the intercom came back on. "Immediate help is needed in the communications chamber. Immediate help is to be sent to the communications chamber." It didn't sound like Cybergirl's voice, but it was. She had to have been using something to change her voice. "Storm Shadow has taken out the camera in the Communications chamber. Where the hell are you people. Help is desperately needed. Hawk, she is wanted by the shadow! Does anyone hear me!" Through the intercom you could hear banging. "I am abandoning ship. The white one is coming. Help is needed in the communications chamber. Cy out." The door opened and Cybergirl entered. "We have to leave, now." She took Avery through a series of tunnels.
"Were safe here." Cybergirl opened another secret door. He can't find us here but when they get rid of him Breaker will call through the intercom." She light a candle. I used this place to bunk a lot when I first came here." Cybergirl sat down on the single bed. "My old instructor had it out for me when I first found these tunnels. He would take his anger out on me so I id here so no one would find me. Then Snakes came. I had been passed out bloodies and feverish. He took me to the general and I became part of Alpha Team once they realized how good of a hacker I was."
"Why weren't you pushed up the ranks by the instructor that hated you? I mean if he didn't like you why not hand you off?" Avery asked and forgot about the situation at hand.
Cybergirl was glad that she could distract the innocent girl with stories of her past. "Because although he hated me, he loved to torment me. He made me do twice as much work as anyone else. But I was glad he did one time because that was when I met-"
"You met Breaker then right?" Avery sat down next to Cybergirl and watched with wide eyes. "I mean I see the way you look at him and the way he looks at you. But never you too look at each other."
"Do you really think that Breaker likes me?"
Avery laughed. "Yeah. You have that man like wrapped around your finger."
Cybergirl gave a short laugh. "No way."
"Yeah way. Watch when we see him later ask him to do something for you. No mater what it is he will jump right to it." Avery grinned for the first time since getting here with pure innocent joy.
"Look who's talking. What about you and Snakes?" Cybergirl watched the surprise on Avery's face with amusement. "Oh come on, even Duke was able to see it. It seems in the matter of love we are all blind."
