Sorry it took so long to update. I'm still trying to figure where I want to take this story, but have some tension in this current chapter.

There was blood everywhere.

The floor, the table, even a bit on the white walls of the room, but mostly on the tortured body of Elena. Her pants leg seemed as if she dipped it in a river of crimson liquid, but she wasn't in any physical pain.

Mentally?

She was on the verge of insanity.

The only factor that kept her from completely falling apart was Meghan's safety.

Caveira hadn't laid a finger on the captive blonde, and she had begun begging the Brazilian woman to stop shooting the Spanish female.

"I'm done with them," she stated as she tossed her Luison on the table. "Return Castellano to Rainbow. Ramirez and Alvarez will be held hostage for a few days. Dismissed."

The men nodded to Doc, who had returned his pistol to his holster. "I got it from here. Go get ready for training." Doc waited until the men were outside of the room before he locked the door and ran over to the women.

"Meghan, I am so very sorry. I couldn't bear to see what they had done to you both. Elena, I apologize to you as well. I will do some medical work on you in a moment."

Mira nodded slowly and craned her neck to look up at her lover, who was beyond exhausted and ready to get out of their personal hell. She was just glad to see that Mira was alive, though the blood bothered her.

In the other corner of the room, Jackal had been brought back to reality through the sounds of Caveira's pistol going off multiple times. He knew better than to scream and alert all in the room, so he had to bear with watching his best friend be tortured. What made him even more upset was the fact that Doc was working with the BOPE, but why?

"Ryad, you are awake. Oh, Craig will not be happy about this. He will kill me."

At the mention of his American counterpart, his face took on a style of confusion. "Where is he? Please tell me that he is okay, because I cannot bear with the death of the love of my life."

Doc nodded to answer Jackal's question. "Caveira believes in revenge, not vengeance. At least not when it comes to Meghan. She will do anything to hurt everyone but her. Kind of an obsession if you ask me."

"No...she still loves me. I never told any of you the truth about my breaking up with her."

Mira raised an eyebrow when her lover avoided eye contact with her. "Meg...oh my god, please don't tell me what I think you're gonna tell me..." She wasn't ready to face the story that Taina had mentioned earlier that day when she was in her cell. She had prayed to every god she knew that what the BOPE operator told her was just a way to get into her head.

The only thing that truly confirmed her doubts was the single tear that left Meghan's eye. "I'm so sorry, Elena...It didn't mean anything to me...I swear. I was drunk and we just-"

"Just shut the fuck up...Val...Kateb, please get her away from me..."

Doc pursed his lips and took Valkyrie by her arm and escorted her out of the room. He stopped for a moment outside of the room when they heard a yell followed by the sound of a chair being flung across the room. Another yell could be heard along with a few curses that would put a sailor to shame.

Valkyrie has never felt so bad in her life, which meant a lot coming from someone who usually kills people on the job.

Meanwhile, in another part of the building, Taina chuckled darkly to herself as she flipped her knife between her fingers, eyes glued to the screen that was connected to the camera in the room Mira was in. "Cappy, remember when I told you that Castellano would ruin her own relationship? I was so very correct. I think Elena has reached her max. This is perfect for us and our current experiment. Have the boys get my tools ready. Tell them...tell them that Operation: Resurrect is a-go."

Capitão looked uneasy as he let out a gruff sound and left the security room. He had a feeling that he would not like what was about to happen one bit.
