Chuck vs. Army Wives Chapter 4

Once Claudia Joy had divulged the shocking news to the rest of the room, General Holden sat motionless in his chair for a few moments. Finally, he spoke.

"Evan a terrorist? That's just not possible. This is a mistake. Surely, this is some horrible mistake. Colonel?"

Casey responded, "You know, General. Chuck may not seem like a lot of things. But, one thing that's never in doubt is his flashes. The kid's never wrong. So, if he says that this Colonel Connor and his wife are the ones we're looking for, then I take him at his word."

"Respectfully, sir, I can't say that I'm surprised at this news." Joan offered.

"Joan, I know that you've had your share of disagreements with Evan in the past. I have too, quite frankly. But a terrorist? That's a very serious charge to level against someone. I'm still not convinced that this is true".

"But sweetheart. What else do we have to go on? And what if Chuck is telling the truth? It's your duty as General to protect this entire base from harm!" Claudia Joy reasoned.

"OK. We'll wait for Evan to return. In the meantime, not a word of this to anyone else here! Understood?" General Holden raised his eyebrows in askance.

"Sarah, why don't you come with me back to the house? I'll think of some excuse to invite Jennifer over" Claudia Joy said.

"Claudia Joy! NO! Absolutely not! You know you can't stand her. Besides, if Jennifer really is a terrorist, then I'm not letting you invite her to our home. I still have nightmares over what happened between you and Paolo."

"First of all, Michael, I mishandled the Paolo situation. But, I can handle Jennifer. Besides, I'll invite Pamela in case things really go awry."

General Holden grumbled for a long time. Finally, he reluctantly relented.

"Fine. But please be careful, hon!" Claudia Joy gave a quick kiss to her husband and left with Sarah.

Then, Chuck said, "Guys, maybe I should join Sarah and Claudia Joy". His worry over his wife was most evident at this juncture.

"No, Chuck. I think the ladies can handle Jennifer. You'd best stay here with me" the General replied. Reluctantly, Chuck agreed.

In the car, Sarah asked Claudia Joy, "So, what's your plan?"

Claudia Joy responded, "I'll tell her than I have some FRG business to discuss with her prior to our next meeting. She's always over eager to meddle in everyone else's business anyway."

So, the plan was hatched. Once Claudia Joy got home, she called Pamela for support as needed. Then, she called Jennifer for what would prove to be a very memorable get together.

Within minutes, Pamela showed up at the Holden house. Except she did not come alone for walking alongside her were Roxy, Denise, and Roland.

"Pamela, I didn't mean for the whole group to come over! Jennifer will be here any minute."

"I know. It's just that when I was heading over here, Roxy asked where I was going. And we all know what happens when Roxy gets curious."

Claudia Joy nodded in comprehension.

"Me and my big mouth!" Roxy said with a big grin. "So, are we really going to put the smackdown on that hussy today?"

"Roxy, we first need to establish that she's the terrorist. Then, if there's any trouble, then Pamela can take care of it".

At first, Sarah tried to offer her assistance, but Pamela interrupted her thoughts. "Yeah, I still take my kickboxing class. I know how to defend myself. I was a cop, remember. If Jennifer even tries anything, then it's on!"

They'd know soon enough. Jennifer Connor, a.k.a. Lisa Remer, slowly approached the house.

"Claudia Joy. This is a surprise! And the group is here too! What about the FRG meeting that you needed to speak with me about?" Lisa asked.

"Actually, I didn't really have anything FRG related to ask you. I wanted to ask you one thing. What's your real name?"

"What?"

"What's your real name? I know it's not Jennifer" Claudia Joy tried again.

"Of course it's Jennifer. Claudia Joy, what's really going on?"

"I don't know. Have you spent any time at all in Canada? Toronto maybe? Perhaps you may want to clarify if your husband is really an officer in our Army".

Soon, Lisa's complexion grew redder and everyone could see that Lisa began seething under the withering line of questioning.

"It's Lisa, isn't it? Your real name is Lisa".

Lisa shot a glare hotter than coals at Claudia Joy. "Who are you? How do you know all this?"

"Never mind how I know. Why are you and your husband here on my husband's Army base anyway? Are you planning some sort of attack here on Fort Marshall?"

"So what if we are? You Americans are so arrogant in your ways. Believe me, Fort Dixon and Fort Hood were just child's play. You haven't seen anything yet!" Lisa reached into her pocket, and Pamela immediately pulled a gun from her pocket.

"Lisa. Don't! Hands off!" Pamela shouted.

"You think you're so tough, Pamela? Why don't you put your gun down too? Then, come and get if you can".

"I can kick your sorry butt anytime, missy. Don't even try messing with me!" Pamela snorted.

"We'll see about that!" Lisa growled.

At that, she crouched at Pamela with a wheelhouse kick which Pamela easily evaded. Pamela tried landing a couple of kicks of her own, but Lisa successfully blocked both. Then, Lisa landed a solid right to Pamela's jaw and a second jab to her nose. Pamela landed with a thud on the ground in pain. She spat out some blood and glared at Lisa in pure hatred. Yet, try as she might, Pamela proved no match for a surprisingly superior fighter. The final blow came as Lisa landed a shot to the back of Pamela's head as she flew unconsciously to the ground. Soon, Denise, Roland, and Roxy were tending to their fallen friend.

"So, who's next? Anyone?" Lisa virtually beamed in her arrogance.

Only Sarah made eye contact with her. Lisa immediately took notice.

"What are you looking at, Blondie? You want some of this too? Bring it sister! I've got this going all day!"

"Oh, don't let her talk to you like that, Sarah. Kick her a**, Sarah, kick her a**!" Roxy shouted.

Sarah cautiously approached Lisa. Then, she attempted to land a kick but Lisa moved easily out of the way. Soon, Lisa landed two solid kicks flooring Sarah. But, unlike Pamela, Sarah proved far more adept at countering her opponent's moves. In fact, she managed to land several kicks and punches in succession completely stunning Lisa. Although Lisa did get a couple of punches to Sarah's face, she was clearly overmatched. The fight ended with Sarah grabbing Lisa's head under her right arm and unloading one last hard kick to her face. Sarah breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Lisa lying motionless on the ground.

"Sarah, are you OK? Come on. Let me take a look at your face" Denise said.

"I'm fine, Denise. Let's just get this troublemaker off of this base and into custody". With that, a couple of soldiers took an unconscious Lisa away.

"Wow. That was amazing, Sarah! Where did you learn to fight like that?" Roxy asked her.

"I've . . . had some training" Sarah replied a little sheepishly.

"I bet. Hey, Pamela, you're awake. You just missed the fireworks! Sarah just totally unloaded on that Jennifer, or Lisa, or whatever her sorry name is." Roxy said proudly to her friend. Pamela could barely groan in acknowledgement.

"Is everyone OK?" Claudia Joy asked the group.

Everyone nodded their head in acquiescence.

"What about Evan? Michael could still be in trouble!" Claudia Joy worried.

"Chuck too!" Sarah also worried.

"OK everyone. You all should go home. I'm sure that Sarah and Colonel Casey can help Michael handle Evan". Claudia Joy said.

"No way! We're coming along too! We're all a family, remember?" Roxy said.

"Fine. Just stay in your cars!" Claudia Joy replied.

Those words rang strangely familiar in Sarah's ears.
