Pack Instinct11 – Nice Seeing You Again
"They took Luxie," Blaze said once the two of them had knocked out the two guards by the door. "They took her in through the main door."
"I can smell her," Alec said. Blaze grinned at the way he sounded like it was a special talent.
"Join the club," she said and sniffed at the air. "She's angry… or sad?" Blaze looked at Alec who shrugged. How could those two be confused?
"So? Shall we barge in or have we got more plan coming?"
"Luxie's my plan girl," Blaze said and breathed in deeply. The dead guards were soon to be discovered and the two of them didn't look very inconspicuous.
"Here," Alec said and crouched down next to the guard. He threw the jacket at Blaze and she caught it looking confused. Alec grabbed the other jacket, put it on and then began undressing the guards. He looked up at Blaze who was still uncertain of what to do. "What? Never broken into a high-security facility before? Have you never used your superior skills to go around stealing things?" Blaze shook her head slowly with a small grin on her face.
"It seems like we were all made to be criminals."
"Well, how did you get through life on the outside then?" Alec asked. Blaze blushed. "I thought so. Did what you do best? What is it you wolves do best?"
"Kill," Blaze said loosing the blush and smile. "We were born and raised to be assassins, so that's what I did." Alec looked her up and down.
"I suspected. But luckily I'm just such a hottie and you didn't kill me," he said and took his pants off. He grabbed the other ones and pulled them over. "Come on, can't stand around in your Manticore uniform now, can you?"
"Nice seeing you again, X6-847," White said when coming into the room.
She doesn't look like an X6, Two thought and glanced back over to the girl. She might be short but she looked older than she was.
"You two become great friends?" he asked with a sneer.
"Yeah, if you could maybe let us share a cell we could play scrabble or something together," Luxie said coolly. Two felt confused. She was a wild spirit and full of anger but she was making jokes even in a situation like this.
"Sorry, but you've got an appointment at the doctor's," White said and the door behind him was locked. Getting Luxie ready for transport was a big ordeal.
"His name isn't by any chance Frankenstein," Luxie said and grinned at her wonderful remembrance of ancient folklore. "Because I heard he and people didn't get along very well."
"Well, aren't we lucky you're not part of that group," White said grinning fiercely. The first door was unlocked and two guards stood on either side of the gate.
"I was just going to say the same about you." Two watched the two of them fight in their calm and elusive manner. He waited calmly, watching the guards every move. He could feel Blaze coming closer and closer to the cell and hoped that she would free him, so that he could… kill her?
"What about this one?" one of the guards said with a careless wave towards Two.
"Kill him," White said absent-mindedly as the second door was opened. Blaze immediately sped forward and began punching, kicking and breaking bones of anyone she could find. Then she encountered the bad end of an electrical zapper and fell to the ground as her nerves gave way.
Two shook the bars and the others turned in shock as the gate shivered under the force he was using. Then their eyes opened as the two bars he was holding bent under his force.
"Get up, girl!" Two growled loudly as he jumped into the area between the two barred fences. Luxie groaned as she heard the voice and slowly got up, despite the pain. She punched one of the guards between the legs.
That'll keep him busy for a while, she thought to herself as he got up again. However, once she'd reached her normal height, White grabbed her, holding a knife to her throat. The tip was piercing her skin so she wasn't even able to pull a Manticore twist and snatch stunt.
"Drop the knife, White," came a voice from behind the snake cultist and he felt a gun at the base of his neck.
"If you shoot me," White said and shifted Luxie around ins his arm a bit, "the bullet'll go through her too." Alec rolled his eyes and moved the gun higher so it was at White's head. He pulled his finger slightly so that everyone standing could here the spring stretch.
"Not any more. Let her go," he said. White let Luxie go and pushed her forward so she stumbled into Two's arms. Two grabbed her and blushed, so he immediately straightened her up again.
"Shall I shoot him?" Alec asked with a glance at Luxie.
"Big fat duh," she said with a look that meant to say he was stupid. But just as Alec pulled the trigger White spun, gave Alec a friendly punch in the face. Blaze turned and dashed after him but as soon as he left a security door it looked as he swiped his card.
"Shit," Blaze muttered and trudged over to where the others were.
"Are you okay?" Luxie asked crouching next to Two. The bullet gone awry had hit him square in his right shoulder, disabling the arm. Blood was streaming all over the place and there were splintered bits of his shoulder blade on his skin. His soldier training forced him not to shed a tear but only grit his teeth.
"Sorry, man," Alec said as if it was no big deal. He walked over to the wounded boy and he and Luxie helped him sit up. "Right through."
"Blaze," Two hissed when she walked into the room. Blaze looked at him with a face filled with confusion. She didn't know what to do and her eyes slowly became moist.
I could feel tears welling up in my eyes as I saw my brother there on the floor with a bullet hole though his shoulder. It made me slightly glad because it prevented him from attacking me now, but I could feel the pain he was hiding.
He looked so angry when he spotted me and as the tears ran down my cheeks, I knew I had lost my brother. The Two I had known was gone and this was just a beast created by Manticore. They had succeeded with him and I was proud that my brother was the best soldier I had ever seen.
"I think we should get him back to Terminal City," Luxie said slowly and helped Two up. She gave me a look, which was to convey that I wasn't supposed to oppose the suggestion. I wanted to but at the same time I wished that he would get better soon.
"Can you walk?" Alec asked carefully and as an answer Two strode towards me. I moved back in fear of the extended training he had gotten but I stopped when I saw the single tear running between his two blue stripes. He stood in front of me and I closed my eyes. I was so scared of my brother and now I knew how he had felt so many years ago.
"Blaze," he said again, slowly, calmly. I opened my eyes again and saw the tear was gone. He seemed without emotion and I felt my fear fading. This was my brother and he would never be anyone else – no matter how many Manticores he went though.
"Hello, Two," I said with a faint smile. I could see Luxie and Alec watching the two of us, confused but interested. I didn't know what to say. What did you say to an assassin? 'Don't kill me, please, don't kill me?' Two watched my eyes for a few more moments and then walked past me. Luxie walked up to me and Alec jogged after Two.
"Are you okay?" she asked carefully.
"I'm still alive, aren't I?" I responded with a smile. She grinned at me.
"He's not that a bad person," she said as the two of us left the war grounds.
Yeah, it's shorter but it's full of emotions… sniffs
