A FIRST IMPRESSION CHAPTER 3
A few years later….
Scarlett answered the door, on the other side was a man in a military uniform. The man looked her over and said " Excuse me ma'am, are you Shana O'Hara?" "yes sir I am, What can I help you with ." "you are to come with me, You have just now been enlisted in a military group called G I JOE. We need to leave immediately." Scarlett grabbed what she needed and wrote a letter to her dad explaining the situation.
On the plane heading to the pit, the man looks at Scarlett and says "you know you're the first female Joe. You come highly recommended, and I am very impressed with your file, It is a honor to have you on our side, O'Hara."
"No sir." Before she could respond further he said loudly, "What do you mean NO?" "She smiled at him and said, It is MY honor Sir to be a part of this team and to fight for our freedom. He smiled at her and knew not only will she be a great soldier but a good friend.
They arrived at the pit where General Hawk introduced her to everyone there. "There a few more Joes about to come back from a mission that you need to meet, Scarlett."
Scarlett saw the helicopter land and decided to go help the Joes. She arrived there and saw a briefcase of one of the Joes so she decided to help catty it. She went to go grab it at the same time a Joe did. His hand and hers met on it. She looked at him and got startled. She knew him somehow. He looked at her and said "Thank you my lady but I can carry it." She felt embarrassed so she blushed and flashed him a smile and went on her way back to the pit.
In hawks office, he introduced the rest of the Joes to her. "Scarlett this is Stalker, Rock N Roll and last but not least this is Snake eyes. Scarlett is our counter intelligence officer."
"pleasure meeting all of ya'll." Scarlett said with a smile.
"nice to meet you Scarlett, Its about time we have a classy lady like yourself on the Joe team" Stalker said. Rock n roll shook her hand and offered to buy her lunch. Snake eyes took her hand in his and raised it to his lips. "the pleasure is ours My lady."
There is something familiar about him that I cant place, Scarlett thought . Everyone went to the gym in the pitt and hanged out for awhile. Stalker and Snake eyes were sparring , while some Joes were doing some P.T, Scarlett decided to practice her martial arts movements when Clutch decided he wanted to have some fun and flirt with her. He snuck up behind her and went to grab her, she was caught off guard just for a second then she grabbed him and threw him over her shoulder. Then grabbing him and placing him in a headlock. "What are you doing?"
" I wanted to get close and personal with you Scarlett" clutch smirked. Before she can respond, snake eyes who was laughing approached them. " That isn't the way to treat such a beautiful lady Clutch." Scarlett blushed and she caught herself looking into those silver eyes once again. thank you was all she could say. She didn't understand why she was feeling this way about this soldier.
Hawk came in and said "ok Scarlett time for you to give us a martial arts lesson." Scarlett looked all around and asked for volunteers. Clutch pushed Steeler out front. "ok attack me" she commanded. Steeler with all of his force went the direct approach in attacking her. As he was coming towards her, she bent down and threw him over the shoulder , he got up she did a foot sweep and then pounced on him and pinned him down. Someone in the back whispered "Lucky bastard." Next thing you know it was Rock N Roll's turn. He went flying across the room. She looked at snake eyes , "your next". He went to punch her and she started to throw him over her shoulder but something was different. Could it be she asked herself. Snake eyes went down . Scarlett knew he let her win but why was what she couldn't figure out. She wanted to ask him but hawk called formation. After he released everyone for the day, she turned to talk to snake eyes but he was gone.
