No excuses. I don't think they're important. Sorry for not updating:P

I'm horrible.

Snake was wrong. When Alex woke up, he wasn't pissed. He was a little mad that he'd been shot with a tranquilizing serum, but more than that Alex was frustrated and upset. Though being in Shelley's room kept the nightmares away, it did nothing to help him forget that Shelley was gone and could be going through any kinds of torture. And her being a traitor to Scorpia guaranteed that she would not get out of their unscathed without some help soon. But he knew he needed to calm down if he was gonna help her. So he took some deep breaths and walked out of the room to go meet the rest of his team.

When Alex walked out of the room, snake looked at him guiltily. He knew he didn't know what the boy was going through but he did know that those hours he spent asleep, did nothing to stop Alex's guilt. But all Alex did was look at the team members, already suited up and ready to go, and gave the order:

"Let's go."

Snake was piloting Alex's helicopter. They didn't really have a plan yet other than scoping out Malagosto from the nearby coast of Italy. But for now that was enough.

Alex was sitting in his seat, eyes closed, mind whirling with thoughts of Shelley and the different types of tortures he knew of. And I don't even want to know about all the new types of tortures the psychopaths have thought of. The sound of gears slipping jolted Alex out of his thoughts.

"What the hell was that?"

"I have no idea. But I'm pretty sure it's not a good thing."

And then they were falling.

Fire was blazing all around him and Alex couldn't think of anything to do to get them out of this mess. He could smell his hair burning. His skin felt hot and his shoes felt like they were melting. Looked like the luck of the devil finally ran out. And right when I couldn't need it more. Figures.

That was the last thing he thought before everything went dark.

K-Unit watched in horror as the helicopter carrying their teammates plunged into the ocean.

I know its short. But I hated the last couple chapters and I couldn't figure out where to go with it. plus i get distracted by reading and forget all about typing on this website. I know excuses are irrelevant but I realized I owed you some.

another thing. im not sure how much i screwed up while uploading this so just tell me if i got chapters confused/skipped. i'll try to fix it. oh and sorry for all the mistakes but im supposed to be asleep now and im to tired to go back and check.

On the bright side, I now have an outline of the ENTIRE rest of the story and just need to find time to type it:P

and now there are to many peoples' names to type and too many names i deleted by mistake so i guess i can just say im thankful all of my wonderful reviewers/favoriters who stuck by me.

Review if your still with me. Please…x[
