The Viper in the Pit

Chapter 2

Present:

Viper was glad to be in the Pit. It had been a few days and she was startled when a young man walked up to her and put an arm around her shoulders. This was the one that had been Flint. But Jane had told her that they hated each other in public, so what was he doing?

"Jane, are you all right?" Flint asked while looking at her.

"I'm fine, just a little on edge." Viper responded, forcing her British accent into an American one. She watched as Mindbender was carried away on a stretcher and Dr. Satou followed him. They were still struggling with stabilizing him. Jane must have been one hell of a shot while she was in the military. Viper thought.

Flint grabbed hold of Viper's hand and held her as close as he could. "That's good to hear, I was worried that you hurt yourself."

Viper at first was uncomfortable with the man touching her, but slowly she found she liked the feeling. It was comfort, pure and untainted comfort. What is wrong with me? Commander Cobra created me to be the perfect weapon and that is what I am going to do. She thought while turning to Flint. "I need to go get a shower before reporting to General Abernathy."

Flint was alarmed at Jane, she wasn't acting like herself. When he arrived she would have kissed him, even in front of her uncle, and now Jane was being distant. "Jane, did I do something wrong?"

"No, no, it's just I haven't take a shower or brushed my teeth or—"

Relieved about that news he kissed her to shut her up. When oxygen became a problem he pulled back, leaned his forehead against hers, and smiled at her. "Well go take your shower."

Viper slipped out from Flint and walked into Jane's quarters. She shivered and quickly went into the shower. Changing into more appropriate clothes for a Lieutenant colonel, Viper thought: That was the most disgusting thing ever. No one is ever to touch me like that again. And yet, it felt pleasant…

Viper walked out of the quarters and went to the Intelligence center. The base was hard for her to navigate the first day but today it was easier. She sat down at a computer and started typing away.

…

Snake Eyes walked through the hallways and saw 'Jane' sitting at a computer typing. She even seemed to be growing frustrated. After she got so annoyed she walked away, he sat down at the computer and looked up what she had been searching for. Not good, she wants to know all the personel files of everyone here. Jana better be almost done plotting things.

…

Flint walked up to Jane and put his hands over his eyes. "Guess who."

"Flint," Jane whispered back to him.

Viper had become annoyed at the computer, but for some reason she felt at peace when Flint had showed up.

"How could you guess?" He asked as he turned her around and smield at her.

"I could tell your footsteps from everyone elses." Viper responded while glancing around. She knew she was being followed by someone, she just didn't know who.

"Oh, I'm sorry then."

"What for?"

"That you have ot listen to footsteps to know it's me." He felt hurt.

Viper was no longer in the mood to play to his man's emotions. She felt the shadow moving closer to her. She spun around and put her hand on the gun at her side.

Flint had seen Sakura walking behind Jane but when Jane spun around with her hand on the gun he grabbed her hand. "Jane, that's Sakura!"

Viper removed her hand from the gun and stared down at the blonde haired little girl.

Sakura stared up at her aunt and ran away screaming. It wasn't her aunt, it was an imposter, and her mother wasn't far away. She continued running.

Flint grumbled and took off after Jane's niece. He didn't want the girl to be scared of her aunt just because she about pulled a gun on her. He swooped Sakura up into his arms and held the girl as she started crying. He noticed Snake Eyes come up to him. "Jane about pulled a gun on Sakura."

Snake Eyes shook his head. 'It's not Jane.'

"What?"

"That's not my auntie, that's not Ja-Ja!" Sakura cried as she buried her face into Flint's chest. Flint held the girl a little tighter. If that wasn't Jane than who was it?

Viper could hear the girl saying that she wasn't Jane. How right you are child, how right you are.

A/N: Oh no...what is Viper going to do to Sakura? not much actually ahhh...spoiler! r&r please!
