Chapter 3
I woke up at six and started to gear up, I started by putting my body armour on, their wasn't much but it helped, it consisted of black shoulder pads not the American football style but more of a rounded shape and came down to about a quarter of your arm, special combat boots which had a knife holster in and actually fitted my hind legs and paws perfectly, a black bullet proof vest which had a hole for my center spike, it was also quite thin and light, finally a black bandana which went above my eyes in a long thin fashion almost like those Japanese headband things but different. The bandana I added my self just because I could, I noticed that Andy was awake and kiting up he had already put his mask on a black modern, combat, double vent gas mask which he loved, it was so creepy and I guess that was the whole reason he wore it, he too had shoulder and arm pads but in red, black bullet proof vest, leg protection and black leather combat boots. We were kiting up early because we was meeting our NUACRF informative and didn't know if we would have time to return to the 'office', I started loading one of the cars, the 4X4 with the supplies that we still had leftover, the informative better of brought supplies with him because we only had at most two magazines per weapon. With the 4X4 now ready with supplies packed we waited for the others to wake. When everyone was awake we started the tedious ten mile journey, Andy driving the German Estate car, a black bullet-proof Audi RS6 Avant with me and Val vacating the back seats, Roze and Eagle in the British 4X4, a Land Rover Defender, it was military grade but looked no different. Originally it was Rain's idea that we took two cars, just in case the worst happened, it did mean that we needed twice as much fuel but it also meant that we had extra room, a backup, security in numbers and it didn't draw any attention, Rain declined any idea of a Hummer or anything of the similarity just because they were extremely rare, normally associated with military operations and used fuel like no tomorrow. As we drove, the suburbs that we began in had melted away and was now replaced by trees, bushes, hedges and field. It seemed to have been quite a long time since we had set off but we was still no where close because of what would of been a ten mile journey would of been that if we traveled as the crow fly's but we couldn't because firstly cars don't fly and their was a small mountain separating us and the informative, so we now had to drive around the base of the mountain but at least the pace of which we was traveling at had increased, mainly due to Roze, speeding off angrily in the Land Rover. She didn't like the fact we had to drive around the moutain and also the fact that when we 'planned' the route we had missed out a "motherfucking mountain" so we also had to catch and keep up with her, which was surprisingly easy in the Audi. My thoughts now moved onto Val and after all this, what would we do. I had been thinking of proposing to her but I always thought I should do it afterwards, what if their wasn't a afterwards though? What would happen if I or Val got killed what would the other one do, I knew I couldn't move on, she was the one I wanted to live with for the rest of my life and I could only hope that she felt the same way. Val asked "Jun, do you know how long its gonna take to get there" I actually thought she was asleep "it gonna be a while if we're not anywhere close by seven then we'll find a hotel or set up camp, yeah" she smiled at the thought of a hotel, we hadn't been alone properly for a while now and in a way it was killing us, its not that we missed doing it we just missed each others touch and embrace, when we actually did get the time and privacy, everything just seemed right, nothing else mattered, our cares just melted away and all we needed was each other.
We stopped at a service station me and Val went to buy some food and drinks with Eagle while Andy and Roze filled up the tanks on the cars. I picked up a few things like chocolate, coke, red bull, crisps (potato chips) and headed to the counter Andy was surely finished by now. I paid for everything and was about to leave when a big tough guy shoulder barged his way through all of us "watch where your walking" I growled he turned round "alright ma... Animal"i raised an eyebrow "grow up or I'll end you" He turned round and walked of he didn't seem right, he didn't seem like he was up to good so I let Eagle and Val go to the car, I said I had forgot something just so I could check this guy out "Jun your not gonna do something stupid are you" i raised another eyebrow "i just want to get some drinks" with that Val went to the car with Eagle while i walked I over to one the ailes which was not in his view, the guy walked over to the counter and asked the woman for some cigarettes or something like that, she turned round to grab some but the guy then reached for something either his wallet or something else. The assistant turned round put the cigarettes on the counter and said " and that's 4.50 anything else" in which the guy replied no actually but you owe me" the assistant gave a confused look to the guy "all the money from the till in to this bag, NOW" as he said this he pulled out a chrome gun, it was a hand gun but had a pretty long barrel making it a heavily modified 45 Sheppard, he lifted it up pointing towards the assistant. Shit I thought, now what? He was standing so he could watch the assistant and the door I was almost opposite the assistant and directly behind the guy, maybe I could take this guy down, get behind him somehow. I decided this was best, I signaled to the assistant that I knew what I was doing but that she should hurry up and get that bag filled. If she filled the bag and gave it to him he would hopefully move the gun away from the assistant meaning their would be less chance off him pulling the trigger when i took him and blowing the assistants brains all over the wall and giving the shop owner a new reason to decorate. He was getting nervous, I had now moved behind him about 15 feet away, the assistant had finished filling the bag and handed it over. The guy put the gun in its holster and went to grab the bag I stood up as I had been bent low to avoid being noticed, charged an aura sphere and said "don't forget to tip", I fired the aura sphere at him hitting the guy square in the chest sending him out the door, I looked over to where he had landed he had now proceeded to getting up onto his feet, I ran out the store at him. I dived at the guy making him fall over once a again, he landed hard making groan out in pain, i sent a punch to his head breaking his nose and making him hazy but not knocked out and mockingly said "so we didn't grow up?" with that I sent another punch to the face knocking him unconscious, blood streamed down one side off his face. At least he wouldn't forget what a lucario looks like, he seemed pretty weak, all I had done is threw an aura sphere and two punches and he was out cold I dragged his sorry ass back im the store leaving a thin trail of blood behind him, I asked the assistant to call the cops, I went over to the Land Rover and reached into the boot looking for something, soon Roze asked what I was looking for in which I replied "rope and I've found it now" I slammed the boot closed and walked back to the store, I got the rope wrapped it around the guy, tied it and left him on the shop floor, handed the gun to the assistant and asked if they had called the cops in which they replied that they had and that the police was on their way, this meant that we should leave. The assistant thanked me and I left, got into the Audi and told Andy to drive, fast.
I was now slumped in my seat, Val asked "what happened after we left" in which I replied "do you remember that guy who shoulder barged his way past all of us" Val nodded " well the dick tried to rob the store so I took him out, knocked him out, tied him up and now the cops are on the way" Val looked kinda shocked at this, she asked if I was hurt or anything but I wasn't but she decided to check for any cuts or anything anyway, I told her again that I was fine and pulled her into a hug and kissed the top of her head, she returned the hug and now was leaning in my arms and playing with the fur on my chest. It had been a while since we even had the time to do something as simple as this, most of the time we had either been talking to each other, fighting or I had been drawing up plans and talking to our informative. It was nice to have this time.
Val was now sleeping, I asked Andy how long would it be till we got their "Dude we might have to set up camp or find a hotel because it don't seem like we're getting their today or tonight" damn "Andy, where's the nearest hotel?" he replied "about a mile away". I radioed Roze and Eagle and told them that we was staying in a hotel tonight. After 15 minutes we got to the hotel, I woke Val up and said "guess what honey?" she moaned rather groggily "we're staying in a hotel tonight" i said with a mischievous grin, Val looked up still slightly tired but was content on hearing this "thank god" she said " im tired of sleeping in tents"
