A Family Affair

Chapter 5 : Jondy


"Brin," coughed Asha looking up, "you always did let your guard down."

"What?" she asked before she felt a sharp pain the side of her head and slipped into unconsciousness.

Asha stood up as Max dropped the rebar and slowly walked up to her.

"Max," said Asha, they started to circle one another before the brunette swung at the blonde...

Ducking Max's punch, Asha landed a kick to her stomach and they went all out. Dodging kicks and punches, some landing; most missing; the two fiery femmes continued like this until Asha grabbed Max by the arm and swung her into the chain link fence.

"3 YEARS!" shouted Max, "That's how long I've known you here, 3 fucking years and I didn't know! Tell me why! Tell me why I didn't know!"

"So I could look after you better!"

"I can't believe it, Asha and Jondy, the same person. All this time. How could you do this to me?! TO ME?!"

"How could I do this to you? Max I thought you were dead when I came to Seattle!" said Asha ducking a kick, "You went on a crusade against Manticore and lost! I came here to help bring them down and then you show up again after a couple of months! I didn't know what to say."

"So you'd rather I be dead!"

"That's not what I meant and you know it!," screamed Asha, "Do you think it was easy? Lying to you? Insulting you all the time, acting like a bitch when I really wanted to help you? When I found out you were alive I wanted to hug the life out of you! But I couldn't. I promised Zack I'd look after you if anything happened to him and the best way to look after you was if you didn't know I was there!"

"You Bitch!"

The two were back at it again, Asha ducked the roundhouse Max sent her way then they locked arms in a stalemate.

"Do you think I meant to hurt you Max?! The entire reason why I got involved in the S1W and Eyes Only was to find you and the others! And when I did I found out you were dead! Not only you but Zack and Tinga too!"

"You could have told me!"said Max losing her edge.

"I wanted too, I thought of so many different ways, but I couldn't; I promised Zack I'd look after you."

"He's yours isn't he?"

"What?"

"Jesse. He's your son."

Max and Asha collapsed to their knees. He brunette gave up her struggle and fell onto her older sister's shoulder and broke down. Tears and ran down Asha's face and she hugged Max tightly.

"I'm sorry Max," she cried, "I'm sorry."

"Just tell me it's real, tell me you're here, that you're really here."

"I am, and I'm not leaving any time soon."

"Oh God, Jondy."

Through the broken window Logan and Alec stood there watching everything. Alec was stupefied.

"Okay what the fuck just happened?"

"I think Asha's an X5."

"They're sisters?" asked Alec, "Asha is Max's sister? One of the twelve that got out in '09? I almost slept with Max's sister?"

"You almost what?" demanded Logan as his head snapped towards Alec.

"I almost what?" asked Alec snapping out of daze.

"What the hell did you mean you almost slept with Asha?"

"Oh, she fell asleep."

"During what exactly?!"

So as Logan and Alec started arguing, Brin lay unconscious, and Max and Jondy were finally reunited.
