Hello again everyone! Here's chapter 3 hope you guys enjoy!
*~*~*~*~*
The sound of her crashing footsteps lingered in the desolate hallway as she walked down it. Her arms pushed way at any doors or people that might dare to cross her path. And her eyes threatening to turn a dangerous blue were focused on only one thing she had to do.
"What in the hell is the matter with you?!" She exclaimed as she broke through Hellboy's room in a muddle furry. She walked in on him helplessly reading a comic book on his sofa. But he had done more than flinched at her surprised entrance. In fact he rapidly stood up and dropped the comic book in his hand...and the only thing he could think of was to play stupid.
"Liz! Um...hi?"
She glared at him violently before quickly taking off her sweater and throwing it off to the side, while nearly scarring a newborn kitten half to death. But she didn't even glance in the direction of the animal. Actually her eyes never left Hellboy's quickly frightened form.
"You know..." She said as calmly as her voice would permit her.
"I specifically asked you to back off. So what do you? You send the nocturnal nerds after me?"
"Listen Liz, I'm sorry I just..."
"No! You listen! I don't know what your problem is but I can take care of myself! And besides who do you think gives you the right to involve yourself in my affairs?!"
Anger threatened to insert itself in his voice. "Liz, you have to understand I'm just worried about you... I'm sorry if you got the wrong impression that I was-"
"Oh my god! Your so damn paranoid! I don't know what's worse: the fact that you gave me your word that you would back off and you didn't... Or the annoying fact that you...!" She fumed with anger so much that she couldn't even finish her sentence. But the silence was filled by Hellboy losing his temper.
"Well for crying out loud! Just excuse the hell out of me if I want to help you out!" Liz looked away and put her hands on her hips shaking her head to rid it of the sound...
Hellboy through his hands up in the air, and rolled his eyes. His frustration was building, and it was noticeable by everyone outside the door trying to listen in to the loud conversation.
"You know what Liz? Your so freaken full of it! You act like your a expert or something around here. And yeah so what if I sent a couple of agents after you? You might have needed the protection! And even now you being completely immature about this! God...your such an...
Liz glared back at him just daring him to continue with that sentence.
"Amateur!"
She seemed shocked with the response and her eyes grew wide as she let her rage get the best of her.
"Your such a jerk! Why don't you just go and get a life of your own, and leave mine alone?!"
And with that she stormed out of the room, but she was alone there because at the sound of her footsteps the audience quickly scattered and dispatched themselves into other rooms, to avoid Liz's fiery furry. But they could soon hear the sounds of her heading down to her own room and the sound of her door slamming. And despite her small frame...they could have sworn they heard the ground shake at her action.
*~*~*~*~*
No life? No life? How dare she accuse him of not having a life! I mean he...well he had his job! And umm...oh hell she was right.
He sat down somberly and sighed. He was grateful she didn't see him staring at the wounds on her hand, the way she was limping, or the small stain of blood that had soaked through her shirt. He wanted to so desperately to ask her exactly what had happened and to have held her until she was no longer upset.
He didn't blame her for being mad at him...he was mad at himself.
*~*~*~*~*
She refused to admit to herself that his words had stun more than she had let on. But of course the pillow she was currently screaming into was her ultimate confidant. She lifted her head suddenly, when had she started crying? She just didn't know anymore. Every time it seemed like something good was happening to her the world suddenly became a dark and forbidding place. She hated the words he had chose to speak to her. And what's his problem anyway! She continued to anziale the situation to herself as she quickly changed her clothes and landed face first in her bed.
She just wished the world would open up and swallow her whole.
*~*~*~*~*
It had been easy to threaten the main security and the lead agents out of the building. They had simply threaten the lives of their families...and with the head security guards wife being pregant...well to say the least it wasn't difficult. But to tell the truth most of the origination had been against it in the first place. It was too risky they said! We'll never get away with it! They shouted to him, well they were wrong. And that was easily proven when they broke the codes to get beyond the main fence. The rest was already taken care of.
They did have a few unexpected surprises however. It appeared that their were a few people around the complex that enjoyed midnight walks. He was instantly annoyed by their pleas for them to spare their lives, but that just couldn't be done...no not tonight. To much was riding on this mission. The men trailing behind him were carring guys to keep an eye out as he walked down the main hallway. He could see the large metal door at the end of it, and he longed to touch it and feel the coolness beneath his fingertips, to feel just some of the power that laid behind that door, just to get a taste of the perfection... Yet he knew there was no time for that, in fact they only had a little time left before surly they would be in grave trouble and outnumbered. So he looked over his shoulder to the small door on the left side of the hall. He took the time to turn the knob slowly as so he wouldn't make any more noise than he already had.
Of course the room was dark, he had expected that much. And naturally he saw the small woman sleeping with a dry scowl planted on her face. She seemed distressed about something, but he just nodded to one of his men who said something into a walkie-talkie and the other reached into a black bag he had been carring and took out a small white cloth. He then poured some kind of liquid on it that he was obviously afraid to touch himself.
But he handed it to his boss as directed. His boss didn't hesitate before placing the cloth over the girls mouth and nose. He actually jumped back when her eyes flew open in a deep blue radiance that seemed to light up the room. But they closed as quickly as they had opened and she was in a dead sleep.
Kapler couldn't help but smile...it was the kind of smile that made his men jump once more...
