I don't own GI JOE just my characters, just doing this for shits and giggles

To say I was not in a good mood is an understatement. I was beyond pissed off at the moment, one was because someone deemed it wise to sit me right across Allen Irons, two Derek was standing at the other end from Roadblock and three my damn hormones are going all wonky.
'Three Irons in the same room. That hasn't happened in many years.' I thought bitterly but was laughing internal at Derek because someone put Storm Shadow next to him and he had a grumpy look on his face. I was glad Parker was standing behind me because if there is one person to stop me from attacking my own "father" then it would be him. Parker is the only man beside Duke that I took orders from.
"What about this places? That leaves these three open." Flint said pointing to three areas on the map. I noticed one area is near the water and the building.
"I'll take this one." I said getting up from my chair and pointing at the one I saw.
"Are you crazy?" Allen said speaking up making me glare at him.
"Am I crazy? No. Is my pride and stubbornest getting in the way? Yes. Besides I have a score to settle with Joshua Wilson." I growled making Derek shoot his head up fast and give me a fearful look.
"Joshua Wilson? Isn't that…." Parker trailed off at the look I gave him.
"Why do you want this one?" Roadblock asked
"He will be waiting there and he knows I will try to find him." I said feeling a slight headache coming on.
"That's fine. Captain Irons I back up fully in your decision." Colton said then gave out Derek and the others a place. I walked out of the room and heard footsteps following me. I know Derek wouldn't follow me at the moment, Parker knows better than to follow me if I leave in the middle of a meeting which leaves one person. I turned around and saw Allen Irons had followed me out of the room.
"What do you want?" I growled out at him making him glare at me.
"What the hell are you thinking! Taking that place on your own?" he asked
"Why do you care! You haven't cared about me from the moment I was born. I was left to be raised by my Uncle who was my father." I snapped causing him to back up while I walked up the stairs.
"You have no idea what that man is like!" Allen snapped making me turn on the stairs and punch him right in the jaw.
"I don't have any idea what he is like?! I was engaged to his oldest son and his youngest son tried to kill me twice! And I had to deal with him just last week which is why I have my arm bandaged up again! Now shut the fuck up!" I shouted at him then continued up the stairs to the room I was given by Colton.
I slammed the door and lend against the door for support. I slide down the door and put my head in my hands.
"Damn it Duke where are you when I need you." I whispered while bring my hands down to rest on my stomach while looking at the ceiling.
I heard a knock on the door which caused me to gets up from the ground and look to see who was knocking on my door. I was surprise and glad to see Parker at my door.
"Can I come in?" Parker asked leaning on the door frame. I nodded and allowed him inside.
"How are you doing?" he asked after I shut the door.
"I feel like shit and I know why." I said leaning on the door again looking at him.
"What is it?" he asked while looking over at me from the bed.
"Do I really need to say and are you going to make me stay if I do?" I asked glaring at him
"Your….." He looked a little shocked
"Yeah." I said taking a deep breath to calm my nerves down.
"I'm not gonna say you need to stay put but I will say that you need to be careful." he said while placing a hand on my left shoulder while looking down at me.
"Still the same old Irons I knew. I don't think anyone should try to change you or stop your choices." Parker said then gave a small smile
"Why is it you are the only one besides Roadblock who can tell me what to do and I will listen?" I asked after moving to the bed.
"Well I don't know how to answer that. What do you think Roadblock as?" he asked
"I have been lately thinking Roadblock as the father I never had. He knows how to put me in line when I get out of it but usually lets me do my own thing. No one is to know that came out." I threatened him while laying my head on the pillow. I closed my eyes when I heard Parker speak up.
"Who is it by the way?"
"Conrad "Duke" Hauser." I said then allowed myself to sleep.
