Alive!
U. S. Army Base, 1992…. "This is who you are….You are a soldier….You are a killer….Trained to the highest of your ability….You are a killer….Harness your skills….killing is what you do….Death is your mission….Killing is as easy as breathing….You are a killer….Killer….Killer."
Rock slowly opened his eyes and looked around. He was back at headquarters where Benny was watching him. Rock said in an almost quiet whisper, "Benny, what happened?"
Benny looked at Rock and said, "Rock, you were shot."
Just as he said this, Dutch ran in all bloody and out of breath.
Benny looked at Dutch and asked, "What happened, Dutch?" Dutch said, "I…I…escaped…barely…I…heard a…gunshot…I think…they killed…Revy…"
Upon hearing this, Rock shut his eyes and a tear rolled down his right cheek. Rock could not believe that Revy was dead.
3 days have gone by with no word on Revy. Rock was lying in bed pondering about the incident. He also thought about some of the times he and Revy had together:
Flashback….Revy and Rock were walking down the streets of Japan, hand in hand. "Revy, have you ever thought about a different kind of life other than this one?" Revy looked at Rock, "I don't know, this is the only life I've ever known." Rock raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you ever have a dream, something to hold on to?" Revy grabbed his arm and pulled him close to her, "I managed to hang on to you, didn't I? You are my dream in this nightmare." Rock wrapped his arm around Revy and she rested her head on his shoulder, "Dutch owes me 20." Revy suddenly raised her head, "What the fuck do you mean?" Rock smiled, "I bet Dutch 20 that you had feelings for me." Revy's got pissed and said, "Thanks a fucking bunch for ruining this moment, you asshole!"
Rock slowly sat up out of his bed and looked at Dutch, who was bandaging his head. "Dutch, are you sure Revy is dead?"
Dutch looked back at Rock and answered, "No, I'm not sure. I just heard a gunshot."
Rock slowly got to his feet. "I have to find her. I have to kill the General and finish this."
Benny said, "You can't do anything the way you are!"
Dutch looked at Benny and turned to Rock, "What are you planning to do?"
Rock gave Dutch a cold stare with rage in his eyes. "I am going to kill them! I will find everyone who was involved and I will make them pay with their lives."
Dutch and Benny looked at each other as Rock walked slowly out the door.
All hell was about to break loose!
