Three days later on Monday, she wakes up in their room an engaged woman. She looks over at Sean, still sleeping. His body laying there on the other side of the bed, such a masculine fit body. She lays there feeling his head with her hand; Sean stirs and turns looks at Clelia. Sean smiles at her rubbing the sleep his eyes and he says, "Well, good morning. My finance Clelia O'Hara. How are you today?"

Clelia kisses him on the lips and says, "Feeling great, how about you?"

Clelia tenderly strokes her engagement ring, looking at its beauty.

Sean gives her a kiss back on the lips and they kiss passionately, Clelia holds the back of his head. Sean moves his tongue inside her mouth and pulls her naked body close to his naked body, then after a few minutes they pull away from their passionate kiss. The alarm goes off for six thirty and Sean kisses Clelia gently on the lips, then he says, "Looks like work time. We better get ready; we don't want to make our bosses mad."

Clelia pulls out of his embrace and jumps off the bed, saying, "I'm not going to be late, I don't know about you though."

Then Clelia smirks at Sean and Sean gets off the bed, he puts a dressing gown on. While Clelia puts on her shirt, lingerie and shorts. That is perfect for the heat of spring. Clelia goes into the toilet, in her top floor bathroom, Sean goes downstairs and Clelia hears him whistling a tune as he starts breakfast. Once she has gone to the toilet, she washes her hands and looks at her face. Her dark blue eyes look back at her with a happy glint in her eyes, which she has not seen there very often before she had Sean in her life. Clelia dries her hands and smiles at her reflection in the mirror; she finally has reason to smile on the inside as well as on the outside. When she gets downstairs Sean has breakfast all but the coffee that is still boiling ready for them, her hands her a plate of toast.

Clelia says, "Thank you."

Sean and Clelia sit on the porch with their toast, as the kettle goes off. Sean looks at Clelia as in, "Can you get it."

Clelia nods and gets their coffee made, then brings it out. Where they have breakfast listening to the radio and looking at the Mountain View and the trees that surround the left side of her yard, which is the beginning of a beautiful forest. Sean and Clelia talk about their wedding and how their going to have it in Las Vegas, then go to Hawai for their honeymoon. They talk about the details and Sean asks, "Why don't we get a Wedding Planner?"

Clelia says, "No, the Renaissance hotel in Las Vegas does that all for you, like they have their own wedding planner for you at the hotel."

Sean asks, "Really you have looked this up already? When did you get time to do that?"

Clelia smiles at Sean and shakes her head and says, "I already decided this when I was imagining getting married a year ago, i wrote it down near my computer and went and looked at the information before we went to bed last night. To remind myself."

Sean looks up surprised and says, "Why were you planning this last year? Were you marrying someone else?"

Clelia playfully whacks him over the head and says, "I was writing a story about people getting married I had to do research for it and I imagined I would do the same thing."

Sean went with her into the kitchen with their dishes, smiling at her playfulness. Sean says, "Well, I was always given the impression that women decided these things when they were young. My mother told me she did as a child, because as a boy I made fun of my sisters for making marriage books and playing out their future weddings with the boy from next door."

Clelia smiled at him and she rinsed the dishes as he hurried off to get ready for work. Clelia listened to the pop music coming out of the radio and bopped her head along to the music and then she ran upstairs and got ready for work.

Clelia hops out of the shower, when Sean comes in and says, "Bye, my warrior princess."

Clelia kisses him goodbye and says, "Goodbye, my man."

Sean takes a last glance at her beautiful wet naked body and then he leaves. Clelia gets ready once he leaves and leaves for work in her Auldi A3 blue hatchback; once she gets there parents are sticking round with their nine year old and three year old kids. For a day off of horse riding, they still want her there to help look after the children though. When their about to go to the stables a car pulls up and the father John goes to check it out, Clelia and Jodi head off to the stable. Once they get their, they hear shouting from John, but they can't make out what he said as suddenly his shouting stops. Jodi and Clelia look at one another and run to the window to see the men have knocked out John and are tying him up. Clelia realizes one man is missing, the one with who looks the fiercest. Jodi goes to run to the children to protect them, but it's too late. The fierce looking man has a gun to her Jani the nine olds head and the three year is knocked down by the man as he tries to help his sister out of the strange mans arms, Jodi grabs her son on the ground holding him and looking up at the fierce looking stranger in anger. Clelia goes to run over, but the man yells, "Don't move or I'll shoot! If you do what I say no one has to die!"

The man is wearing a blue outfit with black spots all over; he's wearing grenades slung across his chest and a mask that is the same colour as the rest of his outfit. He's holding a M16 against Jani's head and Clelia knows this since she's shot an M16 on two different occasions in a targeting range gun shop in Las Vegas. Also on three occasions at the skeet range in KY.

Clelia doesn't move and Firefly grins at her and says, "Good nanny. Now you're all coming with us or your dead!"

Three men appear out of breath at the door from where another vehicle has pulled up, this time a van. The men are all wearing baklavas' and blue uniforms with a Cobra insignia on them; weird I thought these guys were taken out after their recent attacks on Boston. By who in the US defense force no one knew, since the media didn't have any idea. Gi joe's no longer around, so it must have been some other Special Forces group. Like what her parents and Sean are. They grab Clelia and Jodi and try to grab the other kid, but Jodi screams, "I'll take my son, by myself!"

Firefly gets angry and shoots at her, but she continues to hold her son. Clelia is tied up by a Cobra soldier, hands behind her back. Jodi his hit with a gun and knocked out, her son screams. Sobbing uncontrollably he clings onto his mother, another Cobra soldier pulls him off his mother and slings him over his shoulders. Clelia screams, "Let him go!"

The soldier behind her pushes her forward till she's in front of a guy the Cobra soldiers have been taking orders from. The guy ties up Jani and gives her to another Cobra soldier, Jani screams out for Clelia as her, her brother and her mother are taken away by the Cobra soldiers. Another two guys had helped take them to the van.

The guy in charge says to Clelia, "My names Firefly. What's your name?"

Clelia says, "Clelia."

Firefly smirks and says, "What's your last name?"

Clelia says, "Silverstein."

Firefly looks at her surprised and says, "Oh, well you just reminded me of someone else. Guess you can't be related to her after all."

Clelia says, "Guess not."

Firefly looks at her strangely like he's still looking for someone else in her looks and then dismisses the soldier saying, "I'll take this one. You go start the engine."

Clelia tries to resist the hand over and make a run for the house, but he butts her with the gun nearly knocking her out. Still he doesn't, because Clelia has always been difficult to knock out, blood pours from the wound down in front of her eye.

Firefly says, "Well that just reminded me of someone else, you ever heard of Snake-eyes?"

Clelia looks side ways at him leering down at her from behind and she spits out the words before she can think, "No, I haven't."

Firefly nods disappointed and then says, "Strange, must just be a misguided idea of mine that you two could be related."

Firefly then takes her and puts her in the back seat of the car with him, instead of in the van with the others. Both vehicles have tinted windows so no one can see in, but they can see out. After a days drive they end up in stopping in a motel seven car park in Hooker, Oklahoma. Clelia's thirsty, hungry, tired and needs to go to the toilet. She wonders how the others are doing, especially the children. She looks at Firefly, he nods at her and says, "Stay here chicky dee, if you even think about screaming I'll cut off the children's toes one by one till you behave. Do you hear me?"

Clelia nods assent and Firefly takes off his balaclava along with the other guys and they put on duffle coats to cover their uniforms, then Firefly goes inside to book rooms obviously. One goes off to get petrol with two petrol tanks and another to get food and drink supplies. While the one with her, covers her over with a duffle coat so passer Byers can't see her tied up hands and the handgun aimed into her back. He takes her out of the car and when firefly comes over to her with the card keys, he hands her over to him. Who takes out and points a handgun into her back and takes her to one room, opens it and shoves her hand, slamming the door behind her. One minute later the knocked out children are taken in like their sleeping, but the smell of chloroform wafts in with them. They are dropped on the bed and Clelia rushes over to them and sits on the bed by them. Checking them over with her eyes, wanting too cry at the site of them. They look tired and worn out and sweat is all over them from the heat of being in that van all day, but Clelia holds it back. It wouldn't be the right thing to cry since the children would then get upset, like they wouldn't already, but it's the adult's responsibility to remain calm. The parents are brought in the same method as Clelia, but they look the same as the children do, just also with a bruise on each of their foreheads. They both look depleted and tired, their pushed into the room and cuffed up to the heater together. The door slams behind two guards who enter with them and they pull close the curtains, then they stand guard by the door with their handguns in their pistol holders. Obviously the M16's would be too big to hide.

Clelia looks at John and Jodi and they are looking over at her and John says, "I'm so sorry we got you into this, I wish you and the children had been out of the house at the time. Then they wouldn't have captured you guys as well."

Clelia asks, "What do they want with you? Why would they want two scientists who work for a research center?"

Jodi sighs glancing down before saying, "We work on baboons researching a chip we've created. Where we put it in the baboons' brain and it gets the baboons, to learn to do things we want them to do. We watch from a screen that shows an image through their eyes, the image comes out onto our computer screen and we also can see the baboon's heart rate and blood pressure. We can drop the heart rate and blood pressure if needed to. The research was started to help people with Alzheimer's disease, people who had strokes, memory problems, people who are vegetable's. We were going to start human trials, but we haven't got to that yet. Obviously these terrorists found out about this research and wanted to use it for their own evil purposes."

Clelia looks shocked and says, "Wow, that's the most amazing research I've ever heard of and it actually works?"

John nods and says, "Yes. We are certain it works on baboons; we still haven't started the human trials. This guy Firefly says we to begin that work on Cobra Island."

Clelia looks at him and nods, then in comes Firefly with his balaclava back on. He chucks food and drink on the bed and says to Clelia, "You can feed them when the children wake up. Which will probably be in a couple of hours. Anyone need to go to the toilet?"

They all nodded, he went outside and two Cobra soldiers came in with him this time. Those two went with each person to the toilet, so they weren't alone when they got untied. It was quite humiliating for Clelia, who's been humiliated like that as a child already. Once they were all done and tied up again, Clelia watched as Firefly asked them questions about their research. Beating them when they refused to answer, which was every time so they were bloody and bruised after two hours. When the children woke up to this and Firefly let Clelia off to feed them and the parents, also to eat herself. Then Clelia convinced Firefly to let her take the children to the toilet one at a time by themselves, Clelia looked away while they were in there and she got a moment or two to assure each child that the police or even the military will find out that their kidnapped and come and save them. All of them, not one single one of them would be left behind and these men would go to jail for what they did. She didn't mention how she heard Firefly while they were asleep say, "I got out of being imprisoned by GI JOE in Iceland with the help of Cobra and some insiders in the Iceland military. So don't think that you'll get saved, because no one not even GIJOE can stop me!"

Clelia was still allowed to remain untied to put the children to sleep in the double bed, snuggling in between them and her and their parents telling them everything will be alright. Of course they first wanted a story, which Clelia made up for them and then they both fell asleep since they were both exhausted. Clelia and the parents got sleeping pills for them to go to sleep, all released that after they drank some water that was given them and they got sleepy. Soon the parents were asleep, Clelia took a little longer to fall asleep since she's used to taking stuff to make her sleep. After her childhood she can't sleep on her own, everyone close to her in life knows that and some understand.
