(A/N: Mwee! More reviews! Thanks everybody! I've had some people becoming a little annoyed at how short my chapters are... if I get enough requests (IN REVIEWS! Hee.) then I'll consider trying to make them longer, but the story will be updated more infrequently.)
Chapter Fifteen
Hawkeye slouched as he walked, like a lot of tall people do, with his hands in the pockets of his fatigues. Steel dogtags clanked quietly around his neck. He smiled slightly in returned greeting to Radar, who had said hello to him without even looking up. About to pass through the doors into Henry's office, the clerk looked up and said "He's sleepin'." "...What's new?" "Well, just leave him alone!" "Radar, I have some very important things to discuss with our valiant leader."
The small man glared half-heartedly, but just went back to his filing. Hawkeye walked into Henry's office and over to him, giving the sleeping Commanding Officer a light flick on the nose. Henry opened one eye and scowled, but sat up and stretched. He was pretty much back to his old self.
"What do you want now, Pierce?"
"Only to save your life."
The captain said with a humorless smile. Henry sat up a bit straighter, looking curious and confused. Hawkeye took the seat across from him.
"Just be careful, Henry. All we know is that the crash wasn't an accident." "Hawkeye! What'n the hell's going on here?!" Henry exploded, but Hawkeye just shook his head. "We're not sure yet. Just be careful. We don't want to lose you." "Who's this we?" "The crew of the Save the Henry Foundation." Smiling, Hawkeye took this opportunity to depart from the office, bumping straight into Radar's ear as he opened the door. "Tell you later." "You better tell me later." They said at the same time, but Hawkeye just walked away, as it was a normal occurrence.
Gee. Isn't it nice to have something normal like a company clerk with ESP once in awhile?
