Three Days - Chapter 2.
London was no summer place. Tonight it was foggy, and it would threaten the clouds and atmosphere to ignite a storm. This was it. The big mission, one they could'nt afford to mess up.
Two figures dressed in a black 'business' type coat was walkign down the streets of London, near the east docks. They both had a one-of-a-kind Winchester shotgun that was already loaded with bullets.
Tom Sawyer let out a sigh into the night air, as he walked beside his companion, and watched his breath come out as steam as it was cold. "They sure picked the right night for this.." He mumbled under his breath.
Tom's best friend, Huck Finn, nodded in likewise "Lets just get this over and done with..shall we?" He asked, they had put it off long enough, and now they were here, it seemed a good time to thing done.
Tom shivered as a cold evening breeze swept across his face, blowing his hair out of his eyes for once.
Huck just looked over at him with a weary smile. "The adventurous Tom Sawyer afraid of the cold?" He yawned.
As the two Agents continued to walk, Tom spoke up "Who said i was afraid of the cold?" He asked, that same smile forming on his lips.
They were headed down some dark alleyways, where it seemed anything and everything could jump out at them under the night sky. As they turned a corner into another passage, a masked man stepped out of the shadows. The man wore a silver metal mask, which covered half of his face. The rest of the skin looked like it had been badly burnt and scarred by acid. He had eyes as cold and chilling as ice, and long frizzy raven black hair, that hung limply over his shoulders.
"Ah, the American Agents..sent by the secret Service itself..how frightening.." The Fantom spoke, his voice sounding dry and cracked up.
Tom and Huck spun on their heels but did'nt jump out of their skin. Though they were a little suprised, both remained perfectly calm. Tom held up a prized Winchester rifle, which the two had given to them especially for this mission. "We're out to get you!" Tom declared.
Huck aimed his own winchester with a stunned silence. How had someone so big surprised them? "If you surrender now then no one has to get hurt." He said, sounding more calm than he was.
"Oh on the contrary, i would, Agent Huck Finn..its just that, i would'nt surrender to a couple of..kids like you.." The Fantom replied, his voice sounding dry, deep and hoarse once more.
"We're not kids.." Tom Sawyer stated forcefully. No sooner as he said that, assasins with Automatic Rifles surrounded them from wall to wall, from corner to corner. It was clear they were outnumbered.
"So what are you going to do, you are outnumbered.." Fantom asked.
Tom took in a deep breath, then leant close to Huck and said "On three...make a run for it.." he said under his breath...
"What?" Huck suddenly questioned in a whisper..was Tom out of his mind! they could'nt just run, that'd be like...chickening out. "Are you insane?" he asked again, in a whisper.
"Just follow me..Trust me, like you've always done.." Tom persuaded, finally getting a sharp nod out of Huck.
"Alright..but you better know what you're doing.." Huck warned, still not fully convinced.
The Fantom watched as the two Special Agents talked in a whispher, but no matter how audible the two spoke, The Fanton still knew of their plans. "i have no time for petty whisphers.. or to devise a plan..both of you will not make it out here alive tonight.." The Fantom declared.
"I do.." Tom said, not listening to the Fantom. Taking a deep breath he whisphered "On three...one..two..THREE!" He yelled, the two boys turned again on their heels, darting down the streets.
To be continued...
