Gunslinger Girl Shadows of war Ch.28: Family of flames

A/N: I do not own Gunslinger Girl only my OCs and any reviews will be nice.

Standing in the armory with the forge roaring at full speed Abby stood backlit by the hot flames smiling like mad as she tried to blow off all the stress she had kept bottled up. Holding back the tears she slammed the hammer into the cherry red metal getting a satisfying ring shooting through the air. Raising and dropping the hammer in a rhythmic motion Abby fell into a world of her own and forgot that anyone could join her and her tears slid down her face and landed onto the anvil and the metal giving the air a crackling sound and she muttered

"Well I can't deal with the bullshit of life and everyone who thought that I wasn't good enough" and she slammed down on the metal cracking it as she yelled

"I FUCKING QUIT ON LIFE!" and she started to cry holding the hammer and turning it toward herself, only to hear a voice that she assumed was Gabriele, yelling as she had looked for Chris

"Drop the hammer and don't do anything stupid" and Abby just smiled and said

"Too late for that miss" and she slammed the hammer down as hard as she could sending metal fragments sailing through the air as she had let the scale build up on the metal so she could cause herself a bit of pain. As the metal landed on her arm Gabriele, who lived up to the loving counselor type grabbed the hammer and looked at Abby and said

"Why don't we sit down and talk so just take your time and don't leave any details out" and Abby dropped down and cried sobbing saying and choking

"I was bullied a lot at school and there is a online post going about me saying I am worthless and need to kill myself and that my worthlessness is the reason my dad left me" and as soon as Abby said that she pulled the hammer back and started slamming it down on her hand over and over, all the while making no sounds not even crying out in pain. As Gabriela watched in slight horror Priscilla came down the steps wondering if Chris still needed mental help was absolutely mortified; Abby's hand was a mangled wreck and the look she shot everyone was one of pure psychotic calm. As the two leaders stood there Abby smashed her hand between the cherry red steel and the hammer one last time before dropping the hammer to the ground and looking at them before saying

"What are you looking at? I don't have anything on my face do I?" and both of them just fell silent until a dart hit Abby in the chest and she said with a little bit of drama

"You shot me you A-hole" and Chris helped her down and said smiling

"How about no" and carried her past the others. As he made sure Abby was secured in her room he said

"I will bring you dinner and meals tomorrow so you don't have to leave the room and there are plenty of books and tv so you take care" and as she nodded Chris turned around on his heel and gently pulled the door shut. Making it outside Chris looked up at the cloudless blue sky and checked his watch and saw it was 1pm and as his watch was set to military time he muttered

"It is 1300 and I really don't want to get started on my homework but I guess I have to because the teacher will bitch so much and I don't want to have to deal with her nagging" and so Chris dropped the bag that he was carrying and sitting out near the lake he started working on Spanish and history humming tunes from his days in the rangers and he was interrupted when Richard, who had been running with 60lbs of kit on yelled

"Yo Dashie you have been summoned to visit Gabriele and Priscilla and they ask you go quiet if not I have the Hannibal lector mask ready to go" and he threw it at Chris' feet as he stood up and followed his brother wondering what exactly it was he would be called to do and as the two approached Priscilla's office Richard slammed him against the wall. Getting the air back and his legs under him Chris growled

"What the unholy fuck was that for and you best talk or I'll gut you and use it to make a nice set of cupcakes for the others" and Richard smiled and said

"Well I found your ponies and I must say I wont judge but it wasn't expected and even petra found the saddle club and she got hooked on it" and Chris smiled and said

"Etta is scoots and seriously what else did you wanna say?" and that is when Richard filled him in on Abby's psych test and reliving any tragedies. Nodding Chris remarked his voice and cold as ice and somber as a condemned man seeing the gallows

"I understand so I'll go see what we are going to have to do and I'll see you when I get back" and the two shared a fist bump before Chris knocked on the door and heard two voices saying

"Come in" and as he opened the door he saw abby and doctor bianchi and he was told

"you have to go because there is a time sensitive operation that came from the ministry so you need to act now" and Gabrielle tossed a small flash drive and Chris plugged it into to Richards tablet and smiled saying calmly, scaring the others

"The red and I have some unfinished business and I will enjoy what I have to do" and the boys took off with the gear of a US delta operator and Richard smiled saying

"Payback is ours and I will be glad to see the look on red's face when we break him and take our time doing it" and they pulled into a small villa and called socom to be patched to JSOC and chuckled saying

"Well Sandman I have the enemy you want captured in my sights" and JSOC heard that and said

"The Delta unit call sign lightning will assist in the capture of the man known as Resnov and the Red is for the Italians" and Chris listened in and said

"Understood and it'll be nice to work with my best friend and my ex-girlfriend again" and as the boys looked out of a abandoned house near the market Red walked into view alongside Resnov and they quickly ran out and grabbed him dragging them back into the house.

As Richard sat the two prisoners down he called to the SWA

"We found them and its shocking the lightning was watching us and they should be here any second for the fun times" and Abby yelled out, as they were on speaker phone

"That bastard caused my family pain, SEND HIM TO HELL SLOWLY!" and Chris having been away and not knowing of the assassination of some of his family said with a voice like granite "I plan to and the video of what I do will be on Abby's phone by sun up" and he hung up before Jean could yell at him saying they needed him alive. Richard looked at his brother and laughed before saying

"Well Gibbs let's get this interrogation started and Jean thinks we need him alive" and both grabbed jumper cables and attached them to a car they had found and Richard stripped the other set, hooked to a motorcycle, and tied them to the man's junk and his feet. Revving both the car and bike one at a time shocking the two tied men Richard heard, as the camera was recording for Abby

"What the hell was I thinking drinking like I'd never get caught?" and Chris recognized Megan's voice and sang back as Richard opened the door

"These high dollar women and the fame and the fortune aint worth the ticket I bought" and as the JSOC unit got involved Chris alternated waterboarding with scalding hot water from the water heater and electrocuting the two with the jumper cables and whipping them with cables till they bled. As the two men cracked and revealed the plot of a gas attack on Rome, Berlin, Paris and London the unit killed Victor with a pistol shot to the head and Richard drove his knife through each one of the red's digits and as the man screamed yelling

"I TOLD YOU EVERYTHING I KNOW!" and as Richard dropped the bloodied black blade Chris turned on the radio and sang

"Kiss my country ass" then with tears in his eyes "He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt maybe one day I'll pass it on to my grandson my granddaddy's gun" and Richard said

"It's just an old double barreled twelve" and Chris grabbed the knife off the table and lunged out carving the man's eyes out and as he screamed Richard yelled

"SHUT UP AND DIE FAST YOU PUSSY BITCH!" and Chris cut the man's throat decapitating him sending blood spurting all over the room and he looked at the camera and said

"Abby it is done" before he sent her the video knowing she would show those she thought could handle it. Upon returning to the SWA Petra laughed and said

"I saw the video and damn boy I thought the spetsnaz were bad with the methods they break out but that was impressive" and as they had a sweet kiss Gabriella called him to her office Abby looked and said

"He finished the job I wanted to because the bastard made my dad flee when he threw so many threats and firebombed our house and I had been burned and all the girls at school called me fry face or French fry and they would shove my head in the toilet claiming it was to was off the makeup" and Chris said

"Id never known that and I would have killed them and Noel had been the best thing that had happened to me and when she was bullied I would be suspended and on my most recent was when I had joined the navy and you know how the rest went" and she looked at the two and said

"Ok you two seal and spetsnaz training being pain management, drown proofing and hand to hand as well as parachute regiment training over the weekends till you to get your heads on straight. Smiling they yelled

"Yes ma'am" and Abby said to Gabriele and Priscilla after Chris left

"During the last drowning session they tried sexually assaulting me so I would like the entire spetsnaz training program" and they nodded before saying

"Your brother needs back up at the school next week for a high level assassination" and Abby giggled saying

"I'm in" before leaving to play Russian special operator.
