Wait! I forgot, the first part of this chapter is inspired by Seal Team 5x08.
Okay sorry, lets start:
Kenai was slowly waking up, his vision was adapting to the atmosphere, he saw the serum and the gripper of the cardiogram on his left hand. He saw too Sitka by his side.
"Hey little brother"he said"I don't want to alarm you but...you've...been in a coma for ten years"
Kenai was shocked, he then realized the mirror at the left of his head. His reflection showed him with a black beard covering his full cheeks, chin and moustache. Panic started to take over him, he touched his face and it was...charcoal?
A wave of laughs was heard on the tent, Kenai looked at the laughing crowd and let his head fall back on the pillow relieved.
"You got it?"asked Brock to Chayo who had recorded the scene.
"Every single detail"
...
While Denahi and Sitka were telling their brother what happened, Bravo was on a meeting discussing about the Russian's encounter, the attacked villages and the abducted children.
"It makes sense"Mandy
"If Serkin gets to take more children and comes back to XXI'st century it would be easier for him to traffic them since they had no registration anywhere"Jason
"We have to stop him now before those kids walk through the time machine"Sonny
"I've been working on the research of their ship but...still nothing"Davis
"How many of them?"Ray
"Serkin has nine men under his control, each one has eighteen mercenaries in charge"
"That leaves us eight vs 162"Trent
"144"Clay"We eliminated Jacovs and his men when we met the brothers"
"Weapons?"Full Metal
"Serkin has three machine guns at the prow and the sides of the ship"Mandy"They got guns, grenades, RPGs, they got a heavy arsenal.
"And the kids?"Jason
"Serkin would keep them at the bottom of the ship"
"How many?"Clay
"By what Keldysh said"Chayo"If each tribe has an average of fifty kids between four and thirteen...I think 500 or even more"
Now things got complicated.
"Gentlemen"Blackburn"Of all the missions we have gone through, this one could be the hardest. We face alone a hundred men better armed than us that also have 500 minors as hostages"
"And that's why you're gonna need help"said a voice.
Everyone turned to see Sitka standing in front of them.
"I just talked to Tanana. And we're all willing to help you with your mission as long that those mercenaries don't take our children away. We'll do whatever you ask as you say"
Jason walked until he had Sitka in front of him.
"Are you sure you wanna do this? Is gonna be too dangerous, it can cost your lives"
"It would be an honour to fight beside you for such a noble cause"
Jason was thoughtful for a moment, he didn't want to take that people to their death, but they also needed all the help possible, and what better than a whole tribe determined to fight for their home.
"Tell Tanana to bring the tribe by this evening"
Sitka saluted Jason.
"Where did you learned that?"
"My bad boss"Chayo
...
Later all the tribe was at the ceremony rock, Tanana explained the reason of the meeting and next Jason took the word.
"Thank you Tanana, we have considered your offer and with pleasure we'll accept it. But this won't be easy, this would require hours of hard training on physical combat, handling weapons, team work"
"So every man and woman between eighteen and fifty that would like to join us, must present itself here tomorrow by sunrise"Ray
After the announcement everyone got back to their duties, commenting about the meeting.
"Will you go?"asked Koda to his brothers since Sitka and Denahi had already the age.
"I will"said the oldest"Denahi?"
"Me too, I wont stay arms crossed"
"Is because of that or something else?"Kenai
"I think you better say SOMEONE"Sitka
"Chayo has nothing to do with my choice"
But his brothers looked at him with suspicious smiles.
"What?"
"You like her, right?"Kenai
"Eww! Heck not!"
Sitka, Kenai and Koda exchanged looks just to laugh out loud like crazy.
"Denying it betrayed you!"Kenai
"Awww! Are you in love little wolf?!"Sitka
"Of course not!"
"Yes you are!"Koda
"Come on little brother, there's nothing wrong at the fact you like a girl"
"How many times I have to tell you THAT I DON'T LIKE HER LIKE THAT!"
"Then why have you been so kind and tender with her?"Kenai"Everytime you had have a girlfriend you're snooty and proud. Now you're spontaneous and attentive with Chayo"
"Don't you remember the ritual? She has gone through a living hell, I fell pitty for her instead"
"No no no no no"Koda"You've been really interested on her since you met her"
"He's not wrong"Sitka"You even blush when you're together, your eyes shine, your whole body shakes, your tongue gets stuck in your palate, should I keep going?"
"Oh come on guys! She's too rough and brutal and choppy..."
"Eh Denahi"Kenai
"Wait, she always trys to be like a man, she ain't delicate or feminine or ladylike..."
"Denahi"Koda
"Hold on, Plus, she's such a crazy mad that takes danger situations as a joke. Like if she doesn't even care if she dies or not!"
"Denahi quit it"Sitka
"No let me finish. And also she says strange words in another language! She's such a weirdo AND the day we met she almost kills me! She's right behind me, isn't she?"
His brothers nodded with the head,Denahi turned around to face Chayo.
"So that's what you trully think about me, huh?"
Denahi didn't know what to do, he tried so hard to hide his feelings from his brothers at the point to talk behind Chayo's back. His pride took over him so he walked to the girl.
"I'm just being honest with you"
"By talking behind my back? That's not being honest but a liar AND a coward"
"Oh then you want me to tell you directly? Fine, you're such a rough, brutal, choppy, careless person-"
"Careless?! If I was careless I would have let you die the day we met!"
"If you weren't careless you wouldn't have risk our lives yesterday!"
"Can I interfere?"Sitka
"NO!"they both say sending him killer looks.
"You know Rosario? I just realized that you always take danger situations as some kind of funny game. You're such a...a..."
"A what?! Say it!"
"A FREAK! You're such a stupid, careless, indifferent, crazy mad freak! And if your job means to keep people safe, you really suck at it!"
Denahi's words were like a stab on her heart, she made a big effort to not breake her voice and to not cry.
"Vete mucho a la fregada crabrón. 'Cause you have no idea of what I've been gone through"she said showing her middle fingers.
"Boohoo, poor me, nobody understands me"Denahi mocked
Chayo turned around and started to make way through the woods, Denahi's words had opened an old wound within her, she begun to sing as she walked through the forest.
Lately I've been feeling so ashamed
By these thoughts I'm hiding in my brain
'Cause I've been holding them down but they twist me violently
I'm hanging by a thread tonight, but this time I don't wanna be saved
So let me fall, let me break
Under everything unsaid
Just let me die 'cause I can't take
Living with what's in my head
If I surrender, surrender
To the monsters in me
If I surrender, surrender
To the monsters in me
Will it set me free?
What's the point of holding on like this?
When no one seems to care if I exist
There is no agony like being strong when no one knows you're sick
So sick of hearing, I should stay when I know I would never be missed
So let me fall, let me break
Under everything unsaid
Just let me die 'cause I can't take
Living with what's in my head
If I surrender, surrender
To the monsters in me
If I surrender, surrender
To the monsters in me
If you could see under my skin
You'd realize why I hold it in
Why it's a fight I don't wanna win
Why it's a fight I don't wanna win
If you could see all my abuse
And spend a day inside my shoes
You'd realize why I just wanna lose
You'd realize why I just wanna lose
Will anyone believe the hell of being me
Before I decide to be the dying proof?
So let me fall, let me break
Under everything unsaid
Just let me die 'cause I can't take
Living with what's in my head
If I surrender, surrender
To the monsters in me
If I surrender, surrender
To the monsters in me
Will it set me free?
Once she finished her singing, she stepped on a hidden trap: a hole covered by branches and leaves. Those didn't hold the girl's weight, so she fell at her first step. Chayo hitted her head at the impact getting unconsious, her prostetic broke at the fall as her right ankle sprained. Now the girl was trapped and nobody knew where she was.
