Chapter 12

Zack, like his sister was standing on the upper ledge of one the Estate's many balconies. Unlike his sister his gaze was hard and angry as he surveyed the grounds of the luxurious estate. He sensed her approach but gave no indication of it as he leapt down off the edge. Caitlin opened her mouth but then realized there was nothing she could do to amend the situation. Zack knew that Cat would tell him that her mother was wrong and that she didn't care about what her mother thought. But Zack knew Caitlin couldn't just get up and leave, her life was here. He also knew that he should have left months ago but he couldn't leave the one he… loved

"It's the classic story, genetically engineered killing machine falls in love with the beautiful princess and struggles to give up everything he believes and was taught…ok so maybe it isn't so cliché."

"Zack…." Caitlin whispered as she reached as if to touch him

"Don't you get it Cat?" he asked as he whirled around to face her "I'm a killer! "When you were two you were most likely being "ohhh" and "ahhh" over by your proud parents, do you want to know what I was doing when I was two? Learning how to kill, watching my teammates, my brothers and sisters die. Do you really want to get involved with a monster like me?"

"Yes," her voice was barley audible

She walked over to him and before he could protest lay her head on his shoulder. Even Zach had to strain to hear her next words.

"There is also another story Zack, the beast becomes a handsome prince. Only problem with that is that to me you already are the prince," she then lent up a kissed him tenderly, he wrapped his arms around her waist and deepened the kiss.

They were so involved with each other that they did no realize they had an audience. Brad Yoke stood in the doorway; his eyes were burning with rage, his hands were bleeding from the thorns on the bouquet of rose he gripped tightly in his hand. How dare his Caitlin kiss another man! She looked like she was in heaven as the blond trailed his hands up and down her back. Brad's grip on the bouquet tightened as Caitlin whispered, "I love you."

The Blond smiled and ran his hands through her hair. Brad couldn't take it any more the look of pure joy on her face. He charged through the doorway not caring when his $1000 dollar suit was torn on a potted plant resting on the ledge. The two lovers broke apart startled by the noise.

"Brad!" Caitlin exclaimed.

"I thought I had finally claimed the heart of the elusive Caitlin Cale but here you are in the arms of the another man." He was on verge of screaming. "You will be mine!" He suddenly pulled out a weapon out of his jacket.

Zack tensed before he could make a move Brad aimed the weapon at Caitlin. "Don't move lover boy. If you try any of your rather impressive tricks on me she's dead." Zach froze, this pathetic weakling was no match for him but he couldn't risk him hurting Cat. Suddenly Zach heard a noise, too quiet for normal humans to pick up. He looked up.

Jondy was lying on roof. He quickly hand signaled "unknown weapon". She nodded. Zach quickly turned his attention back to Brad. He smiled insanely at Caitlin, "So what does he have that I don't huh?" as he moved towards her Jondy sprang, catching Brad square in the neck with her foot. He crumbled like a jellyfish.

Jondy calmly got up and grinned, "Do you have this affect on all men?"

In the forest at the edge of the Cale Estate a gloved hand held cell-phone. "Sir we have them."
