Shadows of war ch.5
A/N: I do not own gunslinger girl only my ocs
As the sun faded after a routine day of classes Richard walked up to his sisters scared as hell because of the more interesting aspect of the day. "Hey squirt what's got you looking like you saw a ghost" to which the response was a calm middle finger before he pulled out a lighter to blow off steam he figured he'd look at flames and set off fireworks with Beatrice who he thought of as the greatest friend ever cause he had told her about him and rico. "Ok I got told by jean that my dating rico could happen but he'll be watching more and that if I do anything he doesn't like he'd beat me and I'd then try and kill him" and both Taylor and Beatrice had gone with him out to the darkened gun range as they had been let out of class early for a late night raid so they had been up all night and the raid was 2 hours away. He brought out his M110 long rifle to set up the night scope as he would be helping an assassination and raid on a RFB safe house due to the Intel gathered on the drug and gun storage base. "Ok we will go in with the tactical armor with the trauma plates and Kevlar and nylon blend vest" was mostly to his sisters and himself as rico didn't need to wear body armor but sometimes did.
As the girls had some time to kill he asked rico if she wanted to go out for dinner since they may not be getting home till late so when they got back he would make her breakfast in bed as he helped rico into the seat across from his and next to her sister triela with The meal consisting of polpettone and veal parmesan with fettuccine alfredo as the second course with desert consisting of Italian cakes with gelato and the drink of choice being a chateau Machiavelli chianti 1910 vintage from triela's best friend Mimi. His cousin matt had joined the group finally after being recruited from Task Force 121 and the greeting was a party that wouldn't be forgotten for mostly the wild reasons as the boys sipped the wine as he walked out onto the terrace from the dining room and calling his cousin out as triela was impressed with the redheaded commando who had seen and done it all and could help triela and the girls in the war that was arriving. "Well cousin I do have to admit that cutie must have high connected friends to get this stuff and be able to give it to us" to which Richard remarked "Rico is the cute one and it's not every day your family arrives and says he's joining the military with you".
Getting down to a hushed voice Alex asked his cousin almost conspiratorially "When are you going to marry that cute girl I always see you having out with cause you to would be perfect together" which got Richard blushing which rico saw and started to walk over with her sister Henrietta and they heard "I'll find the time cause we live fast die young" and as the dinner died down the girls who had hit the bottle a little harder than the boys would have liked but they knew they weren't drunk so they wouldn't get in any trouble . When the girls got back to their rooms the boys decided to go have some fun for old times' sake of hand to hand sparring and playing in the dirt and mud before a shooting match then games and movies which they hoped would keep them up all night. As the boys started their wild night they were stopped and called to the office of the director who was none too pleased with the flash bangs and shooting the boys had started as it was just midnight. "Since you boys have so much energy and we have a major raid coming up why don't you to go out and find the new targets cause we hear that their maybe a chemical weapons storage or manufacture in one of the safe houses and for the love of god DON'T GET CAUGHT" before the boys were dismissed and then went to their rooms before rich popped in to ricos room and kissed her gently because he had the feeling that he and his cousin were going to be sent on a suicide mission which after the lives they lived would be a return and maybe they would have the sweet embrace of death when they could stop fighting. As Rich told tay and Alex as Taylor and Katy had come out to wish the boys well in the decent into the depths of hell as she called the recon and raid she remarked "you know your girlfriend and her sisters won't like that". Looking at her trying to be tough he said you are right and her guardian won't like that either and at least he should be proud I haven't hit him yet and he is nice to rico.
A/N: well there is the chapter and the boys will get in some trouble during the raid and a secret of Jeans will be revealed
