My Centurion Brother
Part 2
Disclaimer: Thought I'd finally add a second part to this! And sorry about the lack of 'Chuck' updates from me, got a little focused on other areas while basically taking an unintended break.
Summary: Its been a long road to recovery from his life as a brain washed Assassin, but its not over just yet for Chuck Bartowski.
"Mr. Bartowski, we have an offer we'd like you to consider." Declared Director Langston Graham of the CIA.
Causing the man formerly known as 'The Centurion' to look at him and the woman with him, one General Diane Beckman of the NSA. "No, whatever it is, the answer is no!" Ellie said as she held on to her little brother.
She'd just recently and finally got her baby brother back and there was no way she was letting him out of her sight ever again! Her brother closed his eyes for a moment before opening them with a sigh being released. "What's the offer?"
"Chuck!"
"I at least owe it to them to hear them out, Ellie." He told her softly before focusing his attention back on the two figures.
Agent Bryce Larkin was near by and frowning as he had a feeling he wasn't going to like what he was about to hear. With him is his partner, Sarah Walker, whom was keeping her face completely devoid of anything that might show what she was thinking and Major John Casey was pretty much the same way. It'd be Beckman who'd speak first. "We'd like for you to provide detailed information on all things Volkoff so that we can finally, hopefully, bring the man and his organization down for good."
Yup, knew I wasn't gonna like it. Even if it is a good idea.
"I'll do you one better." Chuck told her and getting some looks in the process.
"Chuck! NO!"
Ellie's protest went unheard much to her unhappiness. "I will add my sword to your quest to end Volkoff Industries in addition to providing you intel. That man has caused far too much suffering and whether by my hand or another's, it will be ended." Chuck declared seriously.
"Bro, no. This is a bad idea!"
"He's right! Listen to Bryce, Chuck!"
The former Assassin turned his attention to the two protestors. "I could never live or forgive myself if I stood by and did nothing as they bring down that man. I need to do this, you two. With or without your support."
Huh, well color me impressed. I woulda thought the kid would've gone and hid somewhere after getting his brains unscrambled. Thought Casey to himself in an impressed manner.
Sarah wasn't quite sure what to think but would take a wait and see approach to the whole thing. That is, if Director Langston and General Beckman approved of the idea as the two stared at one another for a time before nodding to one another. "While we have our misgivings about this, Mr. Bartowski, we will allow it."
Beckman nodded in agreement as Bryce did not look happy and Ellie even more so as she began to cry and hug her brother. I'll have to give a private order to Casey in the event the Centurion chooses to betray us.
Author's Notes: Hope that was worth the wait!
