A/N: First of all. I hope everyone likes Chess Game. It does get a plot, I promise lol. I logged onto my e-mail and saw 8 comments and it totally keeps me motivated to keep writing!
Unfortunately, my parents don't allow me to put my e-mail on web sites. So, if you have a question or anything that you want to ask me, just put it on a comment and it goes to strait to my e-mail anyway. If you want to leave your e-mail and it's a question I can't answer in an author's note, I will e-mail you back.
Also unforutnatley is the fact that my laptop, which doesn't accept floppies or CDs because it's ANCIENT won't get on the internet. gasp I know. I think it has a visu or something. SO without the laptop, which my story is typed on, I have to go to my home computrer, of which does not have to story. So please bare with the slow updates because I have to re-type every thing from my laptop in to this computer. boooring
Your comments make my day. And it seems a lot of people like the character of Cannon. Lol. He's one of my favorite characters to write with because I can use all my sarcastic comebacks in Silver's replies (I am brimming with them, trust me!)
Keep Reading and Commenting!
I looked at the view with a little smile. It was beautiful to see everything from the snow banked mountains, to the leafy camp, to the rain forest on the plains.
We took the flag I had made out of the spare clothes material. It was blue with a big silver star in the center. I took it out, unfurled it, and planted it firmly in the ground with a little thump.
"We made it." Glory grinned.
"WE made it." Delta shot me a disgusted look.
I chewed my bottom lip in shame. It was a rookie mistake. I'm so stupid! I am a ten star SIT, why didn't I hold my position!
"Leave her alone Delta. Without her we'd have been radioing for a chopper instead of going down to collect 1000 points for knocking down Mount Doom." Glory took out a mini camera and took a picture of the view.
"900. We lost 100 points for having a green bandana." Delta corrected.
"Do you want to come back with two green bandanas or do you want to shut our trap? Because throwing you down this mountain would be worth the 100 points!" Cannon threatened, picking up a chunk of ice.
"No fighting!" Glory yelled. "This didn't go down exactly as we planned, but we came to climb the mountain and knock out the bazooka team. We did both. We couldn't have done it without all of us."
Delta looked over at me. "Sorry Silver. It's just that we were so close."
"Let's go." Glory fastened the ropes on the X-strap around me and attached the hooks to the rocks. "We'll send you down here instead of the rappelling side. There are less footholds for you to hit on the way down, since you can't use them anyway."
"Funny" Cannon said, tightening the cords. "There are perfect indetion marks for tying." He pointed to the two worn sports at the niche of the rock.
"Probably trying to conuse people from going down the wrong side." I shrugged. "I mean, if an able climber tried, he'd have a hard time I can only do it because I have three guys lowering me."
"Two guys a pussy." I heard Cannon mutter to himself.
With an easy heave, Cannon began lowering me down. Inch by inch I descended down the mountain.
The X-straps cut uncomfortable into my shoulders and chest. I tried to loosen the with my fingers and felt the wetness of blood. The strais are designed to carry bazookas, it sliced into my flesh easilly.
I was careful not to complain, but I felt dizzy hanging at this dazzeling height
I looked at the rock wall and tried to steady myself. My leg hurt too, the impact of the paint bullet had stung my kneecap.
As I was lowered down I noticed something. A lead box was dangling off a tree root that protuded off the side of the mountaing.
No one comes down this side! Everyone rappels on the other side becayse there are more footholds.
I grabbed the box and screamed "OH MY GOSH!"
The rope tensed, causing the straps to hite more deeply and I winced. "Did you hit something? We can't come any closer to the edge!"
"Throw down your JohnKnife! Quickley!"
It was tossed and I caught it easily despite the heavy winds.
I sliced off the lock, but the welding kept it from opening. I cut a whole in the side of the box and peeked inside.
Cool.
"What is it? Are you stuck? What's wrong?" Their voices mixed together.
"I just grinned at looked up.
"I've just redeemed myself!" I yelled.
"What?"
"Hurry and lower me and come down!"
They loswered me down and I pulled myself to a rock, careful not to use my dead foot.
I heard strapping of ropes and the easy flicks of them pushing off timlle there were three heavy thuds and the guys ran to me.
"What?"
"What'a happened?"
"Are you oke?"
All their mouths froze/
I held up the key daintily. "Gee, this sure looks like the lock on that case, doesn't it?"
"No way! That key is supposed to be in the most unattainable spot in this place!" Glory grabbed it in shock.
"It is! Who would ever go down the East-West peak? It's a hundred times harder down then the other face. The side with protruding rocks and easy ledges." Cannon's eyes were in rapture.
"We only picked this side because it was a vertical drop." Delta whispered. "No one would EVER try to climb down that."
I nodded. "Isn't that just like Agent Force? Right under our noses."
"It's the FIRST weekend? We're supposed to be looking for this the WHOLE month!" Cannon jumped around.
"You know what finding this means don't you?" Gory asked. "This means the whole game will change."
"What do you mean?" Delta shined the key on his sleeve.
"Well, they give us every day to do whatever we want and search for this key. Now that we've got it, I mean, things will be different."
"10,000 points." I murmured.
"It'll be different. Maybe even harder challenges, relay races, but we're totally on top of it." Cannon's face got that smug "what-are-you-going-to-do-about-it-Punk?" look on it again.
"As soon as we get back to camp, walk into our cabin, and cure that leg for the rest of the day, it's all good."
"How about, at Dinner when Agent One asks 'anything of interest?'. We all get up, silently, then march to the case and Silver unlocks the trophy. Then we all walk back to our table." Glory was so excited, it was in his eyes.
"Yeah! And Midnight Sky can eat his heart out." Cannon said smugly.
