Hey guys, sorry about the delay. So here is the next chapter of David arriving in Istanbul after hearing that Penny and Bolt have traveled there, and where David and Penny finally meet and decide to team up. I've wanted to use Istanbul, Turkey as a location in the story after seeing it appear in films such as Skyfall and Taken 2, and thought that it would be a great city to use in the story. So anyway, I hope you guys like the chapter, and make sure you leave some reviews once you're done. Enjoy.

Chapter 7

Time: 1145 hrs.
Location: Istanbul, Turkey
Place: Grand Bazar

The streets of the grand bazar in the ever growing city of Istanbul were always busy as usual, merchants were conducting businesses, fresh fruits and goods were being sold, and cars and bikes were driving through the streets. Penny walked through the streets with Bolt at her side as the sun shined high in the sky, knowing that if there were anybody after them, they could easily blend in with the crowds of people and disappear in plain sight. She looked around and saw some of the old buildings and palaces around the city that were still standing today, she admired the architecture that belonged in the city, passing by several civilians who figured that she was probably just another tourist seeing the sights of the city. Meanwhile, on the other side of the market, David had just gotten out of a taxi and had paid the driver. He remembered that the tracking device was still in her back pack, so it would be easier to find her in the city. Over to his right in the distance, he saw a group of five men dressed in black that had their sights set on Penny. David saw them walk through the streets and knew that they couldn't get their hands on her. So he followed them while trying his best not to get spotted. He saw the men were getting close to Penny, and were carrying a bag that they would keep both her and Bolt in when they capture them.

"Excuse me, young lady" the man said walking up to her.

"Yeah" Penny said looking up to them.

"Would you please follow us, we're friends with the professor" the man said. David knew that he was obviously lying, since these men clearly were hiding guns in their suits. Luckily for David, he kept his gun hidden as well, with a silencer attached to the barrel. He saw that Bolt growled a little bit, which he knew that he was because it was a sign of intruders. He slowly followed the men, which Penny followed as well. They all got to a black van that was just right at the end of the streets. Once the men got to the side of the van, they grabbed Penny and Bolt, threw them into the van before quickly closing it, and proceeded to tie them up as the van started to move out of its parked area and drive down the street. David ran across the rooftops and followed the van. It was easy to follow the van since it was going at a slow speed and Penny still didn't know that there was a tracking device in her backpack. The hot sun beat down on him as he moved across the roof, with birds rushing off of their resting spots as he ran near them, and sweat trickling down his forehead. After 15 minutes of following the van, he saw that it made a turn, straight to a warehouse that was just on the side of the railroads. He jumped off the roofs and landed perfectly in the alleyway, before rushing out onto the streets and headed towards the warehouse just as the men got out of the car. He hid behind a crate and saw the men take Penny and Bolt out of the van, who were now tied up and gagged, he watched as they were struggling to get out of their restraints while the men took both of them to the door. The men threw Penny and Bolt into the doors and closed the doors behind them. David then took out his Walther P99 and equipped the silencer onto the gun before cocking the weapon and walking to the entrance of the warehouse. He knew that the door would be too easy and that it would be better to surprise his enemies. So he took out a small cable gun aimed at the roof and fired the grappling hook. The hook went up to the rooftops and attached itself to it, he pressed the button on the device and he was hoisted up to the roof. Once he got up, he detached the cable and headed for the door on the roof that would lead him straight inside. He slowly lifted the door so that he wouldn't be noticed by the men. He closed the door behind him and proceeded, he heard Penny struggling to get out of her restraints as the men bound her to a chair and removed the bag from her head. David pulled his cloak over his head and moved down the stairs silently as the men proceeded to interrogate Penny.

"Well, well" one of the men said "Looks like we've got the target, Lori will be very pleased to hear this" David felt a brief felling of anger when he mentioned Lori's name, the girl who was once his friend, now his enemy.

"Let me out of here" Penny said "Bolt!" she saw that Bolt was locked up in an electric cage and couldn't risk busting out of the cage without electrocuting himself.

"Sorry, but I'm afraid we can't do that" the man said to her. The man took out a baton and pulled her closer to him. David couldn't let this happen, and took out his silenced gun. Before the man could hit her, David fired the weapon, which hit the man straight in the chest, causing him to fall down from the shot, the other men were shocked and looked around to see where the shot came from and pulled out their guns. Just then another man was struck with a bullet and fell down, then another man fell, then another, and another, until they all lied motionless on the floor. Penny and Bolt were both shocked by what happened, and felt that somebody in this room had helped them, but who?

"Hello?" Penny called out into the quiet warehouse "Who's there?" suddenly, a cloaked figure landed a few feet away from them from a jump and walked over to where they were. "Who are you?" Penny asked him, and David removed his hood so that Penny could see who he was. She moved back a little bit after realizing that this was the same boy who was with that squad that attacked, and almost captured her in Shanghai.

"Don't worry" David said "I'm here to help you" he then deactivated the electric cage that had Bolt in it, allowing him to break free, and then proceeded to untie Penny from the chair and set her free.

"Are you alright" David asked her.

"Yeah, I'm fine" Penny said, who was still surprised by the look of this boy "Who are you"

"I'll tell you soon, but we've got to get out of here quick before more of Calico's men arrive" David said to her. She felt a little nervous, but decided that she and Bolt should go with him since she wants some answers about this guy. David picked up her backpack that was on the floor and gave it to her. After she put her backpack back on, she whistled for Bolt, who had just gotten out of his cage, and the three of them proceeded out of the warehouse and onto the streets while David hid his gun back in his coat, and decided to take them to a safe place.

An hour later, the warehouse was being investigated by Calico's men, who had arrived to find five men dead, and that Penny and Bolt had escaped with someone's help. A black suburban with the Calico symbol embedded on the side. The door opened, and out came none other than Lori. She was wearing a black trench coat that was over dark exposed arms shirt, with black, high-heeled boots, a mini skirt, and her Blond hair was combed and freely flowing in the wind. She walked into the warehouse with two escorts to the area of the scene, a man came up to her.

"What happened here?" Lori asked the man that came up to her.

"The men that got the target seemed to be shot down, and then the targets escaped" the man said to her.

"How could they have gotten out alone?" Lori asked the man.

"They didn't" the man said "There was somebody that helped them escape" Lori looked at the scene and knew who would have done a move like that.

"David" she muttered coldly to herself. As she was thinking to herself, one of her escorts walked up to her.

"Miss Lori, the boss would like to speak to you" the man said to her. She knew that her father would have to know about the situation.

"Put him through" Lori said to the escort. He waved over to the other escort who brought a radio transmitter and a small black case. The man turned on the transmitter and her father's voice suddenly came out.

"Hello Lori" Calico said through the transmitter.

"Hello daddy" Lori said to her father.

"I want a report on your chase so far" Calico said to her.

"A squad of our men tried to obtain the target, but David must have intervened and helped her escape" Lori said to her father.

"I want that boy found and eliminated" Calico said "Otherwise he'll get in the way of our plans"

"Yes daddy, I understand" She replied to him, she looked at the case that was right behind the screen "What's in the case?"

"A gift" her father replied. She took the case and opened it. Inside was a high-tech, long range pistol that appeared to be made out of solid gold, and appeared to be designed for one shot based on it's appearance, with several adjustments such as laser pointer and attached silencer, and beside it were a set of visible golden bullets. Lori looked at the golden gun, and was impressed.

"Oh very good" Lori said with a smile.

"This golden gun I had some of our weapon developers create just for you" Calico said to her "It has a silencer attached to the front, along with laser pointer, and golden liquid nitrogen bullets, with a slot in the side of the barrel good for one shot, perfect for assassination missions"

"Perfect" Lori said "I'll only need one"

"Excellent" Calico said to her "Use this only when you need it, and make sure you continue with your hunt, good luck" he then signed off. Lori took out the gun, which shimmered as it hit the sunlight and smiled.

"David" Lori said with a smirk "You will be mine"

Well, it looks like Lori has a new weapon, we'll have to wait and see what it can do. I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter. Oh, and just so you know, the weapon that Lori recieves at the end was inspired by a weapon that is used by the main villain from the James Bond film "The Man With the Golden Gun" (with Roger Moore as James Bond). I hope you all enjoyed the chapter. I will update as soon as possible, so stay tuned. I'll see you guys later.
