"Are we all here?" Alan yelled out to the humongous crowd of what looked to be almost three hundred people." Yes." Every leader said including Santana who was also observing the people around her. They might pull this off after all she thought as a squeeze to the hand grabbed her attention. Quinn and sugar were cuddled together on her right and Brittany holding her hand on her left." Are you alright?" Santana asked for the nth time that evening. Brittany rolled her eyes as she looked down but knew her wife was just as nervous for this mission as she were.
"Yes babe I'm fine." Santana looked in Brittany's face to see any sign of lying but she couldn't find any trace. Last night was good for the two who cuddled up next to one another after they talked about what had happened that day. This morning was very quiet until they got to the office where Santana told the rest of the team what was going on and what had happened. The only one wanting to back out was Quinn but in the end she changed her mind.
"Today we are going after Jack Coleman. Tomorrow night Leo McNeill and George hunter I want to save Robert for last. The team tonight that already knows you're going on tonight's mission stay the rest of you goodnight. Quinn's mouth dropped open seeing only about forty people standing around her now." Why send away the people? Quinn asked irritated. Santana shook her head. You're an assassin you'll be ok." Quinn nodded but still didn't feel comfortable about this whole darn operation." Brittany I want you and Tay with me." Alan said removing Santana quickly away from her thoughts." Phillip, Santana and Puck I need you guys to be the first to enter." Although she didn't want to be separated from her wife she could deal doing the heavier work. Everyone was in on what they were expected to do and now on their way to where Alan said Jacks hideaway location were.
"Brittany if you come up on any trouble and you need help you scream for dear life you hear me babe?" Santana coached Brittany in the backseat of Pucks car. "I will. Santana just promise me you'll pay attention to the task and not worry about me? I don't want you to get into any trouble either." Santana knew this was going to be hard but she nodded a couple times." I promise."
The first two guards were two easy for everyone likes, they knew the real trouble was inside and they were proven corrected when Phillip knocked down the front door and four more assassins came out." Go out back." Phillip shouted to Alan who heard it and reacted very quickly." Let's go." He took about fifteen with him leaving the rest to fight with the Trio." Are you ready Brittany?" Alan smirked enjoying himself. Brittany smiled back she knew if she had given her wife this same response Santana would have flipped out. As soon as they were in the back they spotted jack running with only one body guard. The body guard was easy to take down; as Alan brought him to his knees Brittany was quick to deliver a bullet to his head." Nice job Blondie." Alan complimented as they took off in the direction their team ran to catch up with jack.
Quinn was the one on top of the council man. Brittany was very impressed with Quinn's fighting skills and for a moment took a second to appreciate the scene until something hit her from the back. Brittany fall face first on the ground with a groan." Brittany." Alan cried as he ran back to help the blonde being kicked repeatedly by an assassin." No you don't." Alan yelled as he took out his gun and shot the man right in the chest two times. Brittany was hunched over in pain trying to get her breathing back." You ok?" Alan asked kneeling beside the blonde. Brittany nodded grabbing out for the man's hand.
Alan knew what Brittany wanted. Pulling her up with one hand Brittany regained her posture in time to hear Quinn yell she needed someone to finish him off. Brittany forgot there were only a few that could actually kill the councilmen among them because of the whole 'chip thing' and Brittany wasn't about to let one man slip away so she collected herself and both Alan and her ran to jack who was badly beaten. Alan nudged Brittany who took the gun from his hands and with one bullet it was all over." Yay B." Quinn hollered proudly as Sugar and she started to jump up and down. Alan arched an eyebrow looking at the women as Brittany let out a laugh. Suddenly behind them Santana, puck and Phillip came running into the backyard. They had been ambushed with about almost forty guards. Seeing this group mostly sitting on the grass they were annoyed. Blue met brown eyes as both women ran to meet the other." You ok Britt?" Brittany was still in pain but she knew overall she would be ok." Yes I am fine, how about you?" Santana nodded." They just kept coming and coming. I didn't have any clue how many were out here which scared me so much." Santana wrapped her arms around her wife who instantly hugged her back." I just want to go home." Brittany said before exhaustion took over and she found her wife practically carrying her back to her car.
"I could carry her if you like?" Alan volunteered shaken her head." Thanks but no I got her." Santana answered with a warning tone in her voice. No one was going to put their hands on her wife especially in this state.
Brittany was no help taken her clothes off that night so Santana had to do all the work. Taken the blondes pants off was the easiest part Brittany kind of fought her with her shirt. She eventually got the shirt off and instantly gasped out loudly seeing the bruises around her wife's ribs." Brittany!" Santana exclaimed suddenly very concerned. With all her strength Brittany looked over at her wife." I am ok, got kicked a few times. Nothing is broken." Santana observed the bruises and found the blonde was telling the truth about nothing being broken but this still worried her" Baby tomorrow do you think maybe you can stay with the baby or kitty?" Santana knew she was going to hear an ear full but had to try. But when she didn't get any response she knew the blonde was asleep. Santana kissed the blondes cheek and then carefully placed her hand under the blondes arm and on top of her stomach.
"San, Santana wake up please." Brittany begged." Santana stirred then hearing her wife clearly now she opened her eyes to instantly shoot out of bed. Brittany was trying to cover her body up from the glaring man that stood in their bedroom. For once both women thanked god or whoever was up there looking down on them their baby was at Brittany's parents." What are you doing here?" Santana demanded as she made her way to their dresser which held a few weapons" A message from Robert." He took out his gun out of his pocket and pointed it straight at the blonde" Nooo" Santana yelled as she took her gun out of the dresser to shoot the man but before she could pull her trigger another bullet flew across the room hitting the man right between the eyes. Brittany yelled at the sound he had closed her eyes thinking initially she was going to be shot." Brittany, baby." Santana rushed over to her shaken up wife taken her into her arms Santana looked over to their window that was clearly opened." Cover up." A male voice demanded. Santana took the comforter and made sure both her and her wife was covered. "I was out on the lookout and followed him here thought you could use some assistance." Alan explained." Thank you so much Alan." Santana wasn't one to be a usually nice to someone who trespassed into their house for any reason but he had just saved her wife's life." Your welcome ladies can't have my partner and her wife killed." Alan said now standing in their bedroom." Well I got to go girls. See ya tonight." Alan smiled before he pointed to their front door" Of course." Santana said knowing what he meant." Bye Alan." Brittany waved.
When they heard the door shut Santana let out a big breath she didn't know she wasn't holding until now." I am so sorry baby." Santana cried pulling her wife on top of her. Santana hugged Brittany as close as she could." Not your fault baby but we should get this man out of our house." Both women looked over at the dead man lying on their floor.
"How are we going to get him out of here?" Brittany thought out loud" The team." Santana answered lying her head back down." I love you San so much." Brittany whispered.
The team wasn't very thrilled with their assignment of removing the dead body but they all were thankful no one was hurt." I can't believe he was in your house. How did he get in?" Sugar asked as she sat beside the blonde who was cuddled up beside her wife on their couch in the living room. Sugar was scared now someone would come and visit any one of them now. Both Brittany and Santana shrugged." Our window was opened but I don't know if that is exactly how he got in. Our door was defiantly locked and nothing was broken into we checked." Brittany explained shivering at the thought of waken up at the man leering on them sleeping." Baby he's gone we're ok." Santana said putting her hand on the blondes arm. Brittany nodded but couldn't help the tears that were threatening to spill at any moment" Santana can I go lay down?" Brittany whispered exhausted." Sure babe were not going anywhere for about an hour." Pecking her wife on the lips Brittany made her way upstairs down the hallway into their bedroom. The man and any trace of him ever being there was long gone but she still got chills looking over at the spot." Snuggling into her wife's pillow Brittany let sleep over take her.
"Is she alright?" Sam asked concerned how distant the blonde had looked all morning and scared of any noise." I think all this is way too much for her. It's a lot for us but we are used to this world she is not and I am so concerned this is going to really harm her." Santana confessed." She is strong Santana." Alan's voice filled the living room now." Where did you come from?" Santana asked unease with this man just showing up nowhere even if he did save her wife's life." Thought I join the party. I just got some word from a friend who said we all are marked now." Everyone in the room tensed up." Three councilmen left of course they're going to do everything in their power to keep power." Sam commented knowing no one else was ready to talk.
"Exactly, Santana I also have some news about your message this morning." Santana's head shot up giving the man her full attention." They never figured he would fail his mission in killing." He didn't say her name because although he only knew the blonde not even a week he was very fond of her." They made Brittany and forever what reason kitty both number one priorities." Santana's mouth dropped open as Sugar let out an "Oh god no" Then confused expression about kitty." Wait why kitty?" Alan shrugged honestly having no clue what danger the screaming girl possessed. Suddenly a scream caught everyone's attention. Alan closest to the stairs then the rest ran his fastest to the room where the blonde stood across the room pinned to the wall by an Asian man dressed all in black." Get off of me." Brittany yelled. The man went to pull his knife Out from his pocket but Alan was quicker and drew his gun out shooting the man's hand that laid on the top of the knife. The man winced in pain as he turned around to face whoever shot him.
"Brittany move." Alan demanded not taken his eyes off the man." You don't go anywhere." The man said pointing to the blonde." Brittany!" Santana yelled taken her gun out she pointed it to the man's head and pulled the trigger as she passed him to get to her wife" You alright?" Santana demanded taken her wife in her arms." I can't do this anymore." Brittany broke and she didn't care who was around her. Sliding to the floor out of her wife's arms Brittany pulled her knees up to her chest as she tried to calm down. She could see the man dead on the floor his blood spilling out moving across their wood floor." Can you guys give us a minute?" Santana asked but Alan had another idea.
"Brittany, stand up." He demanded harshly Santana was taken back." Don't ever tell my wife what to do." She hissed angrily." Brittany listen this is nothing. You are a fighter, yes it's a lot but it's not too much. Just three more men and you can live freely with your wife." That snapped the blonde out of whatever trance she were in at the moment." Remember that night at the barn how determined you were standing there defending your reasons why you could go kill council yourself."
Santana looked down at her wife never hearing that." Channel that rage Brittany you can do this and you will." Santana turned to Alan." She has a choice she can stand down." Santana offered the choice not wanting this man to intimidate her wife. Brittany rose from the floor." I'm ok San. I'm ready to do this I just needed a moment. How do you do this every day babe all this death?" Santana threw her wife an apologetic grin as she shrugged." I always knew I had you to come home to so there was no choice to let them win." Brittany took her wife's hand in hers." Can we stay in a hotel until this is over I really don't think our floors can handle any more blood." Santana closed her eyes relieved her wife was really ok." Yes anything you want."
Sam walked in the room seeing the man lying dead on the floor he rolled his eyes." Let me guess dead body duty again?" Santana arched an eyebrow." You know you love it. Now tell Finn and Artie to get to it we have some men to kill tonight."
