Alright, so here is another chapter. I wanted to have another chapter that would reveal more of David's past, since that's was he's trying to find out (while he is helping Penny of course). In the last chapter, Lori mentioned a man named Blonski who was the one who trained David and his team and has known them since they were first found. I hope you guys like it, and leave some reviews once you're done reading. Enjoy.

Chapter 12

Time: Unknown
Country/city: Paris, France
Location: Streets

Paris, France, also known as the city of love, was beautiful in all of its majesty, as the Eifel tower stood tall and proud in the city, streets were crowded with tourists, the streets were crowded with cars and people, and the smell of fresh bread and food from many bakery's filled the air, and in some cases, would find its way to people's nostrils. David, Penny, and Bolt walked down the streets looking for a man by the name of Blonski that had known David and the rest of his team since they were first found and trained to become Calico's assassins. When they contacted Penny's father, he had told them that Blonski is currently living in an apartment by himself that's around a lower area of Paris, David had the address written on a piece of paper in his pocket so they would know where to find it. Penny looked around the busy streets of Paris and even got a scent of the fresh bread from the bakeries, but she knew that they weren't here to sightsee.

"Are you sure this Blonski guy is living on this address?" Penny asked him.

"Yeah" David replied "Your father said that this was the last place he heard that Blonski was"

"What was he like when he was with you and your team?" Penny asked. After she asked that question, David stopped, he hadn't thought of Blonski in such a long time, or even shared about him to somebody, but figured that since Penny was a good friend and listener, he could tell her.

"He was a good man" David said starting off as they continued to walk "He was mostly in charge of training us, he taught us how to fight, how to shoot, everything we needed to know to become assassins"

"Was he nice?" Penny asked him.

"Yeah, he was" David replied "Since we were a lot younger back then, he did have a kind heart when it came to teaching us, he always let us try our best, would give us a reward, and if we would mess up on the first time, he would always help us get back on our feet and try it again, he was always like an uncle to us, the way he treated us. Then, after we were finished with our training, he left us, knowing that we were done, but we do see him every now and then"

"Wow" Penny replied "And I bet he still thinks about you guys"

"I bet so too" David said "I think we're here" they stopped on the sidewalk in front of a six story apartment building that looked like any other apartment and they knew that this was the address that Blonski was currently living on. David went over to the front door, and looked at the row of buttons that contacted every single apartment in the building. David looked down the list until he saw the word 'Blonski' that looks like it was written with a pen that was right next to a big button. He pressed the button and a buzzing sound was heard. After that, a voice was heard on the intercom.

"Yes, who is it?" a voice said.

"A friend" David replied "Here to see you" the intercom was silent, as if it were hesitating to think about something.

"Come on up" the voice said. Then, the doors flew open, and David, Penny, and Bolt started to walk inside and up the stairs to the room. The area looked brand new, although there were some parts that needed some renovation and some fixing. Once they made it up the long flight of stairs, they finally reached the top floor where Blonski's apartment was. The three of them walked up to the door marked '64' and David raised his fist and knocked on the door.

"I'm coming" a man said on the other side of the door. They waited for a few minutes, until the door flew open to reveal a man with a bald head and looked to be in his early fifties. Once the man looked at David, he stood with his mouth open.

"David?" The man said in surprise.

"Hey Blonski" David said to his old friend with a smile on his face. Blonski formed a smile as well and gave him a hug.

"Ah David, it's good to see you again" Blonski said to him "I thought you were certainly dead after I heard what happened in Shanghai" he soon noticed Penny, and David looked to where he turned and saw that he hadn't met his new companions "Whose you're friend"

"Oh, I almost forgot" said David "This is my new friend Penny, she's the professor's daughter.

"Nice to meet you" Penny said shaking Blonski's hand "And this right here is Bolt" she said pointing down to her dog, which looked up at Blonski with a curious look on his face as he was observing this new figure.

"Oh yeah, I've heard about you two" Blonski said "Have been causing quite the amount of trouble for Calico. Come inside" David, Penny, and Bolt all walked into Blonski's apartment while he closed the door behind them.

Inside, they found a decent apartment with normal furniture, windows, and what you'd normally see in an apartment. Blonski sat on the couch, while Penny helped herself to get a drink of water. After that, both Penny and David sat down in the living room area right in front of Blonski.

"So, why did you come to me?" Blonski asked.

"I need to ask you something" David replied "Something I've been trying to find out recently"

"Of course, just ask away" Blonski replied.

"Where did we really come from" David asked him "Calico has lied to us about everything, and I want to know if what we've been told about how we we're found is true or not" Blonski looked surprised, he didn't think that he would finally be asked this by David.

"How did you find out?" Blonski asked him.

"When we we're cornered in that building in Shanghai, we found a file that contained information that we weren't informed about" David explained to him "Then Lori turned the gun on us and revealed that she is Calico's daughter, and told us that everything we've known over the years was a lie, after that, men stormed in and killed the others from my squad, but I managed to make it out" Blonski looked down for a minute and sighed. He decided that now, after all these years of deception, it's time that David would finally know the truth.

"Alright, I'll tell you" Blonski said to David "It was a long time ago, Calico had just started up his secret organization, and he needed a special group that could be trained that would serve him wherever they were needed by him the most. Then, he learned that there were children of several great military officers, and he decided that if these men were excellent in combat, then so would their children. So, he had each of the children taken in secret, and given special injections to make them strong and fit. He did the same to his daughter, whom he knew would make him proud. I was a mercenary to train those children, including you, I knew how you all showed up, but I didn't want to reveal anything to make you upset. I saw that you were just children so I treated all of you with kindness. I never told you or the others the truth, but I didn't want to risk being branded a traitor, so I left all of you, retired as a mercenary, and set up shop here in Paris"

After hearing what he had told them, David was speechless. He had no Idea that he was taken as a baby from his real family and having been kept from this all of his life. Penny and Bolt were speechless as well, as they did feel sorry for him; they also had nothing to say.

"I can't believe this" David said "Looks like I don't have a family at all" Penny scotched over to him and placed her arm around his shoulder.

"It's ok" she said to him "I bet your family is still out there, thinking about you, and I bet we'll find them" David looked at her, and figured that she was right. He may have been separated from his real family a long time ago, but that where ever they are, he will find them. Bolt hopped onto the couch and nuzzled with both of them for comfort. He looked at Penny, and then to Bolt, and formed a small smile on his face.

"Yeah, you're probably right" David said "Hey Blonski, do you mind if we stay here for tonight?

"Sure" Blonski replied to him "I guess I can let an old friend stay in my apartment"

"Thanks" David replied "Also, after this, there's a job that we've been working at for a few days, and I think we could use a little help from someone like you"

"Of course I'll help you" Blonski replied "In fact, I did put a few things away, just in case" he stood up and walked over to a door for a room. He opened it to reveal a large closet that was full of guns of every kind, ranging from big to small, pistols, machine guns and shotguns, to assault rifles and sniper rifles, David, Penny and Bolt looked at the large collection in awe and knew that this guy was more than prepared for anything.

"Looks like this will do" said David "Although we may not have to take all of them"

"That's fine" Blonski said to him "Now tell me, what's the job"

"I'll explain it to you in a little while, then we'll get ready to leave tomorrow morning" David said.

"Sounds good to me" Blonski replied. Then, he closed the doors to the closet, and David and Penny continued to get comfortable in the apartment.

Alright, so it looks like we know a little more about David and they have a new ally that's helping them. I based the character a little bit off of Bruce Willis's character from the action/comedy film "RED", which popped into my mind at the last minute, and I decided to include it in the story. Well, I hope you guys enjoyed it, and leave some reviews for what you thought of the chapter. I will update soon.
