Mission achievable.
They all sat together in the rec room laughing as Alec and Biggs tried to outdo each other at pool. The rest of the units were sleeping but Special Ops and a few of their close friends, like Biggs, Chance and the field med Tara who had been transferred to Unit 8, were allowed to stay up later.
It was nice to have people to talk to when her shark DNA kept her up all night. Like Chance and Dek, who both had the same sort of problem as she did with sleeping; Or Emma and B.J who slept one night in four because of their unique mixture of DNA. More often than not they sat around in the recreation room all night or went and trained together.
To Max this was still all so new. She had never had this luxury before of having friends and sometimes she felt overwhelmed. Luckily they knew how she felt and let her go be alone sometimes which suited her fine.
Right now they were all enjoying the down time, just relaxing, draped over chairs and tables and each other in an unmilitary and unregimented way as possible.
"Ah Biggs, you just need to let go. Come on Max. Lets show 'em how it's done."
Max glanced up at Alec's welcoming tone.
Things between them had settled down now. There was no longer such bitterness and tension. They were friends…if by friends that meant that they drove each other to distraction and loved to fight more than talk then yeah…they were friends.
"You want me to show Biggs how to kick your ass?"
"Aw now you know I only reserve that privilege for you Maxie." He shot her a charming smile and she chuckled as she heard a few girls sigh.
"Oh see now I really do have to kick your ass to keep you in line boy." She teased and elbowed him out of the way taking the cue from Biggs.
"It's always my ass isn't it Max; I think you have a problem."
"Oh you so have get him for that one." Flex said with a laugh.
"Oh don't worry Flex, he'll eat them words." She racked the balls and broke.
Alec leaned on his cue and watched her as she bent over the table.
He loved the playful side of Max. He was getting to see it more and more often now that they had formed a sort of truce. They still fought; of course, he loved to see that fire that burned in her eyes as they sparred.
"Call it!" Flex laughed as she sank both stripes and straights.
"Hell honey I'll run the table." She sassed and swung the cue over as she lined up her next shot.
Alec was so intrigued with her cute little butt waggling in the air that he almost didn't notice the door burst open and a dishevelled tech run in.
"Director wants Units 5, 8 and Special Ops to the lecture hall STAT."
They all looked at each other quickly before racing out of the door and towards the lecture hall.
Unit 5 whose barracks were closest were already there as they stormed in and took seats next to each other. Tara nodded to her former unit and sat with her friends.
Alec sat next to Max and leaned over.
"What do you think?"
"Renfro had a nightmare and wants to make us suffer?" she guessed and he grinned.
"Do you think we'll be called out on a mission?" Zan turned around and asked excitedly.
They'd been in Special Ops for nearly two years now and had been on a few away missions, none too far or too hard, really just easing Special Ops into command roles and familiarising them with war situations and combat scenes. Max and Alec shared command roles more often than not and they were a good team. Still they hadn't had any proper missions that they were truly in control of.
"Oh I hope so." Alec said "I could do with getting out for a while."
"You just like the off hours." Sunny kicked the back of his chair and they giggled.
"Don't we all?" Steve asked with a raised eyebrow at her.
"He's not the only one!" Pix said with a grin at Chance.
"Hey watch it!" Biggs warned him as he saw her blush.
"Just because you shared a test tube doesn't make you her brother." Pix rolled his eyes.
"Does too." Biggs came back "Right Max?"
"Right." And no one was ever going to tell her different.
"Attention!" someone said from the front and they all stood up as Renfro stalked into the room.
"At ease." She began and they sat "A situation has presented itself in the middle east. A territorial war between several factions, some of them having lofty ties to certain governmental officials, has broken out. This does not concern us. What does is the small matter of national security breach that we have on our hands. About a week ago a base right here in the good old US of A was broken into, under heavy fire and several vital disks stolen with information that we really don't want to get into the wrong hands. Luckily they are encoded so we have some time.
The general has issued that he wants two of our units in the field to retrieve these disks and take out that base. This is real people it's what we have been training you for."
They sat on the edge of their seats as she began to outline the mission.
"The plans for the military base are held by one Carmen Volkovitch, a renegade from the terrorist group Sintnach- their primary targets were American Naval bases and installations, this man has information about the location of our nuclear weapons and other defensive strategies and he plans to sell it to the highest bidder. We want him dead. He is meeting up with several potential buyers in three days and will be staying in a hotel in Kezmekistan. He cannot be allowed to trade this information." She slammed her fist on the table with each word.
"Unfortunately he has military experience in the United states so we can't use regular soldiers. You will be alone out there."
They glanced at each other- this was new.
"You move out in two hours. 494 is C.O, 452 Second and 344 Aide. Here are your mission Specs. Good luck."
She walked out deep in conversation and everyone turned to Alec.
He took a deep breath and felt a little overwhelmed; he was supposed to be C.O? With no attaché and no regular general to tell him what to do? He hadn't worked like that before and didn't know if he could.
He felt a small pressure squeeze on his knee and looked up into the eyes of Max. She raised an eyebrow and nodded slightly, somehow knowing how he was feeling and able to give him the courage he needed.
He flipped open the file and gave them all a cocky grin.
"So here goes."
"How come you get to do all the fun bits?" Biggs whined as Alec settled in and adjusted his cuffs.
"Joys of command." He grinned broadly "Are you clear on what to do?"
"No." Biggs replied sarcastically "My genetically enhanced memory has blocked out my mission due to the extreme shock of seeing you in a tux."
Alec looked down at himself "Oh come on Biggs, it doesn't look that bad right."
"You look fine you'll have Max eating out of the palm of your hand."
"Hey!" his gaze snapped up to his exasperated friend "We're not like that!"
Biggs rolled his eyes "Oh please, whenever she walks into a room your eyes light up faster than general alert. You get this goofy grin and you barely even look at the other X5 women anymore. Even if you don't let anyone else know I've known you since we got slammed in the pit together for making 627 eat bugs."
"He did try to trip Chance over."
"Like she needs the help." Biggs rolled his eyes again "Point is Sir, I know you, as well as anyone could. You like Max."
"Even if I did it's purely platonic between us, we are just friends." Alec sighed but pulled himself together "Now is not the time. I have the transmitter, as soon as I give the command,"
"Yeah, yeah got it Sir!" Biggs saluted "Here are your invites to the Hotel soiree courtesy of Sunny and her oh so fabulous hacking skills." He handed two gilded invitations over to Alec. "The other teams have theirs already. Pix with Chance and Coco with Flex." He gritted his teeth "Son of a bitch best keep his hands to himself."
Alec swallowed a chuckle- barely.
"So the teams go in, me and Max get in, schmooze and get the tracker onto Volkovitch, we get the info from his hotel room whilst our back up provides distraction and we get out."
"Meanwhile the tracker should pin point Volkovitch's position should anything go sidewise. Team B plants the bomb and we all get out ASAP before the whole place goes skywards." Biggs nodded "Sweet plan, then it's off to the base to blow that up to. Followed by some down time." He leaned closer. "I hear there are some nice bars around here and some even nicer women."
Alec shook his head "Let's think about that later."
"I'm gonna head out to the van." Biggs said and they walked out of the hotel room down to the hotel lobby together.
"I'm supposed to be meeting Max here."
Biggs whispered something that sounded suspiciously like "Whipped." But he ignored him.
"I told you I don't think of Max that way. Me and her we are just friends and nothing more. Purely platonic."
Biggs rolled his eyes and then froze staring over Alec's shoulder.
"What?" Alec spun, wondering if something had gone sideways already when he, too, froze in his tracks.
Max was coming down the stairs, all dressed up in a strapless elegant ball gown. It was deep crimson silk with a lace edged trimmed skirt that swished as she walked down the stairs. Her high heels gave her extra height and made her legs show through the thigh high split in the side of the dress.
Her dark hair was swept up in an exotic twist with several tendrils falling forwards to curl over her bare shoulders.
"Ouch!" Biggs hissed in appreciating and then saw Alec's jaw still hanging open.
"Real platonic." He reached around and closed Alec's mouth with his finger. "Alec, the drool is not attractive."
"Huh?"
"Forget it; I'll wait in the van with Steve."
"B-b-bye." Alec managed as she spotted him and strode across the floor, more than one male head following her every move.
"Hey Alec." She said and shifted her shoulders somewhat uncomfortably.
"Max, you look…amazing." He let out the breath he didn't realise he had been holding and she gave him a shy smile.
"Really?" she looked relieved "I've never even worn a skirt before and as for the whole make up thing? Whatever! Those little pictures they have are no help whatsoever. Gunk to go here, spray to go there." She shuddered "Scarier than Manticore."
He chuckled at the pure Max that came through.
"You clean up good too boy." She straightened his tux and smiled at him, his breath caught again as her ruby lips curved.
"Shall we." He held out his elbow and she took hold and they turned to walk to the party room.
"Invitation." The bouncer asked and they handed their invites over.
"Mr Alec McDowell and Ms Maxine Guevara." He announced.
They walked in and were slightly dazzled by the gauziness that surrounded them.
The ballroom was huge, full to the rafters with people and glittering silver everywhere, from jewellery to wine glasses and serving tables. Tables draped with flowing cloths edged in the same silver gild that edged the invitations and the napkins, and just about everything else adorned every available space not occupied by a schmoozing body.
"Ok so we need to find Volkovitch." Max said.
"Let's have a drink first." Alec suggested tearing his eyes away from her for the first time since they walked into the room. He couldn't get over how different she looked from now to how she looked in her cammies.
He knew she was beautiful but now she was so very beyond that.
"Shouldn't we get to the mission?" she asked in a low voice.
"Establish cover." He grasped onto. He just wanted to savour this for a short while; he wanted to pretend, even for a few minutes, that they were here on a date together and that at the end of the day they would be leaving together to do things he wasn't supposed to even think about until her heat cycle.
"Ok." She grabbed two wine glasses off the nearest server's tray and handed one to him. "Let's mingle." She chuckled.
They did a circuit of the room and Alec felt an odd sense of pride at how many men stared after what was on his arm. He felt much older than his seventeen years and enjoyed the feeling.
They watched as men and women swept regally onto the dance floor with the band playing in the background.
"There he is." Max hissed and he caught sight of the target.
Carmen Volkovitch was a tall Russian man with an impressive physique for someone so wrapped up in the arms scene. His biceps strained against the suit he was wearing and his dark hair was slicked back with way too much gel.
He had a stunning blonde with a very low cut dress draped against him not really dancing so much as swaying to the music.
"Best bet to get the transmitter to him." Max said and sighed "Any idea how to dance?"
"No." he scanned the people's feet "It looks like hold and sway- that I can manage."
"Just don't step on my feet; these heels are starting to kill my feet." She complained and placed her drink on the nearest table.
He swallowed, hard, and drained his glass before doing the same. He turned to her and held out a hand.
Max took it, surprised to see it shake slightly, was he really so nervous about dancing- it looked kinda simple to her.
She stood close to him and felt his body heat against the front of her and his breath on her ear. His arm came around her back to pull her even closer to him and she rested her hands on his chest.
Alec was having a hard time controlling his reaction to her nearness. She was intoxicating and she smelled so good. Her body was warm and so soft and he pulled her closer liking the startled look in her expressive eyes.
"You okay Alec?" she asked as she looked up into his dark eyes. They swam with something that she couldn't identify and wasn't sure that she wanted to.
"Y-yeah." he nodded and twirled her a little.
"Ooh!" she said as she banged into someone "I'm so sorry, I'm so darn clumsy. I guess we should wait a while before trying out those moves honey." She gushed and steadied herself on the man's jacket. "Sorry."
"No problem." Volkovitch said with a heavy Russian accent "Pretty lady always welcome."
Max ducked her head and turned back into Alec's chest as the Blonde gave him a once over.
"You have a beautiful wife." Volkovitch said to Alec.
"Thanks." Alec placed his hand possessively on her waist, not liking the look in the man's eye. "My baby's one of a kind." He emphasised and pulled her away.
"My baby?" she raised an eyebrow as soon as they were out of earshot.
He shrugged, "Worked didn't it?"
Max nodded. "It's done anyway."
He placed a discrete hand over his collar "Alec to Biggs, transmitter has been placed."
He listened for a minute and a grin swept across his face as he turned back to Max.
"Biggs says you need to work on the ditsy socialite thing, he wasn't quite convinced."
"Tell Biggs, next time he wears the dress." She said hitching her shoulders. Alec grimaced
"Thanks for the visual Max."
"So what now, oh fearless leader?" she asked folding her arms over her chest.
Alec made a few gestures with his hands like he was in deep conversation with her and motioned for Chance and Pix to come closer. Flex and Coco stood on the balcony and nodded when Alec motioned to them.
Coco, a beautiful tall Amazon with long brown hair and an African complexion sauntered towards the top of the stairs. She then pretended to trip over the hem of her midnight blue slip dress and toppled down the stairs with a half scream. Everyone gasped and rushed to her aid.
Alec and Max slipped away and upstairs in the confusion as Flex announced he was a doctor and he needed certain items to help her out as he knelt by her side and tucked a coat under her head.
They blurred across the luxurious landing and up into the hotel living areas.
"Volkovitch is listed as room 33," Alec said scanning the room names and heading for the last on the left. He stared at the carded lock and knelt, whipping out his lock pick kit from his back pocket.
"Oh Alec." Max singsonged behind him and he turned to see her dangling the key card from her fingers.
He grinned "How did you-?"
"What you think I was groping the guy, please! So not my type." She swiped it and then used her purse to clean her fingerprints off the wiper afterwards.
They entered the room cautiously and shut the door behind them. It was pitch black but that didn't bother the two transgenics whose eyesight was just about perfect.
She headed for the wall, feeling behind the pictures for a safe while he searched under the mattress and through the luggage.
"So who is then?"
"Who is what?" she was confused at the sudden start.
"Your type?" He said with his head poking out from under the bed "I mean so Mr tall dark and oily doesn't do it for ya, who does?"
She looked over her shoulder "First up- ew and second what the hell kinda business is it of yours?"
"Just making conversation Max." he sighed heavily "Let me guess it'd be some computer dork with toilet brush hair, specs and a let-me-save-the-world complex."
Max laughed "Nasty!" she replaced the painting she had in her hand and cocked her head thinking about it. "You know I don't know, I don't think I have a type."
"Really?" he got up and began rifling through the drawers. "C'mon Max, you can tell me. Your last heat- who was it that got you all revved up?"
Max stopped to think, her last heat had been almost six months ago.
Flashback.
She walked into the rec room where Alec was playing pool in one corner.
"Hey." He grinned up at her "Wanna play?"
"No." she flopped into the nearest chair fanning herself "I hate the Seattle summers they are just too damn hot."
Alec laughed "This from someone who complained it was too cold all winter."
"I'm used to Wyoming. Cold summer, colder winter, freezing fall, mild spring. This change in temp is killing me." She pouted and Alec leaned against the table, his arms folded over his chest.
"Poor baby."
"Fan me?" she demanded with a teasing glint and he looked shocked.
"Are you sure you want me to get that close Maxie?" he teased back and looked around quickly to make sure that there was no one else around, then he fell to his knees and kneeled in front of her with a leer on his face.
He leaned forward and blew warm breath onto her face.
"How's that?" he cocked his head.
"Getting warmer." She pouted further, her lip coming right out melodramatically.
"Maybe you need to take some layers off?" he suggested and reached up, his hands sliding up her flat stomach and over her cotton tank top. He ran his fingers over the thin flimsy straps and tucked his soft finger underneath one, caressing her shoulder.
"Maybe I do." she purred shifting closer "Or maybe you could take one off for me."
Alec jerked and let his eyes catch hers "yeah?" his voice was deep and resonated with something that sent chills to her spine,
His fingers turned under the flimsy material and the strap snapped.
"Oops." He gave her a half smile and her breath caught.
"It's okay, I didn't like this top anyway."
"Yeah, maybe we should get rid of it then." His strong arms came around her, touching her waist and to the hem of her shirt.
She put her hands on his and his eyes met hers again.
"Alec, I need you to know something,"
"It can wait." He reared up and his face came closer…
…and Max sat up gasping.
"Aw no, I'm in heat."
She clambered out of bed and blurred down the corridor towards the med bay and startled the late night tech out of his wits.
"I'm in heat Dumbass, lock me up!" she called through the cell door and slammed it behind her and sighed relieved as she heard the lock click after her.
That was close!
End Flashback
"Don't remember." She lied as Alec stared at her and she turned, a small smile slipping over her lips.
"Don't remember." He sighed as he crept over the hillocks surrounding the fortified base. How can she not remember?
He was still bugging over the conversation that he had with Max in that hotel room. She had brushed off his questions and just said that she didn't remember. How could she not?
It made his mind spin, he recalled almost every fantasy he had had whilst under the influence of heat induced pheromones. Of course, most included Max so he stuck them in the back of his memory and took them out every now and then for closer inspection. He knew from talking to some X-series that they, too, had very realistic fantasies during heat, so vivid that they had to act them out but Max had always been tight-lipped about hers. So what was she hiding and why wouldn't she tell him?
Was she interested in dark haired Biggs? Maybe brainiac Techie? Strong but silent Steve? Aiden the aide? Flex with his easy smile? Maybe even blonde Zan or funny Pix?
"494 are you ready?" the general's voice came down the radio startling him out of his reverie and he took a deep breath and got his head back into the game.
The Soldiers were noticeably pleased with themselves. They had completed the mission. Their first real mission and they had passed with flying colours, got the disks- blew the whole complex to kingdom come and Volkovitch was dead. Easy.
They stood in the command centre and the Major grinned.
"Great work team. Manticore bonus off hours!"
Biggs grinned and Alec managed to hold himself in check.
"Here you get $200 from us to do with what you want, you want more you get it yourselves. See you at 0800 hours to be shipped back."
The Major dismissed them and they broke into cheers.
"Whoa!" Zan looked down at the cash in his hand "$200 a piece. What do we do?"
"Zan my man." Biggs threw an arm over his shoulder "The world is full of wonderful things."
"But you can't afford her." Coco said and they all laughed at the affronted look on Biggs's face.
"Hey now. I'll have you know that before I met up with Sir here, there was a be-aut-iful woman looking for my company. I might go check her out."
"She might check out herself." Carrot teased.
"Just for that you don't get to meet Lola." Biggs pouted.
"I saw a movie theatre." Pix offered with a smile to Chance who blushed. "Sounds great."
Biggs bristled "No it doesn't."
Feen rolled her eyes and pulled Steve away from the argument about to start.
"Chill Biggs, we're going as well."
"How about we go too?" Sunny jumped in with Aiden nodding. Anything to stop Biggs on the warpath.
"I saw a casino." Coco grinned at Mets who rubbed his hands together in glee.
"Oh we are so there!"
"Count me in." Anna grabbed B.J's arm with an eager look.
"Max?" Carrot asked and she shook her head.
"Too wired to sit, I'm gonna take a walk and chill." She stretched; glad to be out of that dress.
"Okay." Tara put her arms around Carrot and pulled him away "See you later Max."
He looked down surprised and Max chuckled.
"Later."
"So Alec, come and meet Lola, I know she'd love to meet you." Biggs waggled his eyebrows making no doubt what Lola was.
"I don't think she's ready to meet me." Alec held up his hands in protest.
"Oh Lola is always ready." Biggs said with a smirk.
"Ew. Can't the locker talk wait until I'm elsewhere?" Max groaned and stepped back.
"Later Max." Biggs said and she walked slowly away into the night.
The rest of Special ops and Units 8 split up into pairs or more and went their separate ways.
Biggs rubbed his hands together "So Alec, Lola is ready and willing to-" but he realised Alec wasn't listening. "Sir?"
Alec glanced back and then off again into the night. Biggs followed his gaze to where Max was walking away.
"Awww come on Alec. Lola is hot, she's all curves and flesh and willing…did I mention hot and ready?" he whined.
"Yeah you mentioned that." he said absently
"Sir?" Biggs stuck out his bottom lip "C'mon?"
Alec gave him a half grin "Sorry Biggs."
He jogged off the way Max had gone and left Biggs flapping his arms in the street in frustration.
"Hey Max!"
She turned to see Alec coming up behind her.
"If this is asking for a foursome." She warned with a fist held at nose level.
"Would I do that to you?" he swallowed and added the image to his memory banks.
Max gave him a look and then continued walking. He walked by her side.
"I thought you'd be off with Biggs and Lola."
He considered it "Nah, who'd want to be with a hot, willing woman who wanted to satisfy my every desire when I could be here getting torn to pieces verbally by a woman who can't stand me." He froze "What the hell am I doing?"
Max burst out laughing at the truly confused look on his face "Good question Romeo."
He slung an arm over her shoulder.
"You know Maxie, they have a pool table back at the hotel and if memory serves me correct you owe me a game."
She leaned into his embrace, much to his surprise, and put her head on his shoulder.
"You want to get your ass kicked?"
"Just by you Maxie, just by you."
Early the next morning Biggs crept into the hotel hoping to catch a few moments sleep before he had to meet command to be shipped back. As he crossed the dead lobby he heard the sounds of laughter coming from one of the side rooms. Intrigued he edged over and pushed the door open.
Max leaned against her pool cue laughing while Alec lined up his shot, a huge smile on his face as he hit the ball into the pocket. He moved around the table knocking her out of the way with his elbow and as he sunk the last shot he pretended to play the cue like a guitar. Max elbowed him, a bright look on her face as they teased each other.
Biggs slowly pulled away from the door and walked to his room, a smile on his face.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Anna Kristina- Hey pet. How was this part as regards military correctness? I took on board what you said about tactical advantage and not having both C.O and 2ic in the same place and if they are then having reasons for it. Unfortunately I only put them in Moving alongside- can you say dumbass?- but thanks for pointing that out. Do I mean cammies?
Elfie- Feeling better now. glad that it made sense I didn't just want to do a "seizures? Oh well" kinda story so thankful that it worked well!
Angel21- Easy to keep following isn't it. No there are a lot more chapters coming up (more like ten than one!) so no fear of it ending soon.
