Chapter Two

19:00 Hours Paris, France

He saw her the minute she walked out of the seedy hotel. Black Hair that fell to her waist. She was dress like every gutter punk in this parts. Tight skirt tight corset that pushed her breasts up to her chin, fish net stockings and a pair of vicious gladiator boots. She seemed to be about 18 or 19. He approached her. Her make up was all black kohl out line her eyes black lipstick adorned her lips. Her jewelry was a spiked dog collar around her neck. A ring through her lip, one through her eye brow. Oh he like what he saw. Very much so. Buzzer and Blowtorch liked what they saw. "If you know what's best for you." Not finishing he went closer to her. "Hello."

She jumped dropping her key to the hotel room. She looked at him wirily. "I'm sorry did I scare you."

"No English." She said in a heavy French accent.

Switching to French, he said, "Good thing I know French."

"Yes it is."

"What are you doing to night?"

"I am not working if that is what you want."

"No, see me and my friends are going to the club down the road. Would you like to join us?"

"What's in it for me?"

"Dinner? Dancing?"

She looked at him strangely.

"When was the last time you ate?"

He was breaking her down. Hum, have a few drinks in this girl get her nice and drunk and he'd have some fun with her. Maybe even get her to sign up with Cobra if she was good enough in bed.

"Sure what harm could it be." to you she added



19:05 over Paris, France

"We're about to land Flint." Wild Bill called back to the Warrant Officer.

"Okay listen up people." Flint shouted. "Twenty-four hours regular procedure with any Joe undercover operative. She's MIA. The team packs up and goes home."

"Flint your joking right?" Scarlett asked leaning in closer to her lover Snake-Eyes.

"No, Scarlett. After twenty-four hours. You, Snake-Eyes, Storm Shadow and Stalker pack-up."

"What about you?" Stalker asked.

He turned away from the group. He felt Snake-Eyes stare bore him in the back. "You would do the same Snake-Eyes."

"What about you Flint." Stalker asked again.

Scarlett up until that point had always thought that what was between Lady Jaye and Flint at times was very one sided that to Flint she was someone to past the time away. However, now, she knew that this career military man loved Lady Jaye. For he was willing to throw it all away.

"If we can not find Lady Jaye in Twenty-Four hours. I go AWOL. I'll find her alone."

"Like Hell you will." Storm Shadow interjected. "In twenty-four hours. She'll be home safe and sound in your bed. If not we all be AWOL."
