Love Struck

Chapter 12 – Current Status

Dark's POV

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

I opened my eyes to be interrupted by a loud knocking on my door.

I slowly got out of bed and looked at my watched. It was 12:00pm

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

"I'm coming!" I shouted as I approached the door.

I gently opened the door to find three military police officers waiting for me.

"Yes?" I asked.

Two of the officers walked in and grabbed me by my arms.

"What is the meaning of this?!" I shouted at them.

"Corporal Dark, by the regulations of G.U.N code book article eleven, section three you are under arrest." Announced the officer.

My eyes widened in complete shock.

"You have no right!" I shouted as I tried to break free.

"Actuality corporal you lost your rights. By the power of the G.U.N board of directors you are to be detained and set for execution within the next week." Replied the officer.

"For what?!" I asked in rage.

The officers that held me began to drag me out of my quarters.

I tried to break free but they held me in place as they escorted me down the halls.

"I demand to know…!" The officer that was behind me cut me off.

"You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will used against you in the court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you can't afford one; one will be appointed to you."

"Grrrrrrrrrr!" I growled at him in anger.

As I was being dragged down hall after hall it became clear I was being taken to the quarantine sector of the base. I've only been here a couple of times in the past to transport prisoners and now it seems I am one.

The officers had to open the door leading into the prison with advanced keycards.

As soon as we entered the door there were guards already waiting for me.

The officer that held me handed me over to the prison security force. Who took me and began to guide me to the prison block. I just hope it's not block C.

As I was being dragged past cell to cell the convicts cursed and threatened me. To be honest I was scared.

The men who held me stopped at a steel door leading into the mess hall of the prison. They quickly unlocked the door and tossed me inside.

"Have fun with the rest of the scum you piece of shit!" Shouted the guard as he slammed the door shut and locking it behind me.

The guards walked away and left me alone. I least I wish.

"Hey!" I heard I familiar voice shout to me.

I immediately looked up.

"Oh shit." I mumbled to myself.

"Well, well, well. Look who we have here!" He shouted in joy.

I slowly got on my feet.

"Dark! Corporal Dark!" He shouted getting more attention.

I remained silent as I began to back up towards the nearby gate.

He smiled as I backed up in fear.

"I hope you remember me corporal! After all you did put me in here!" He shouted at me.

I began to look around and not to my surprise I was in cell block C. I turned my view back in front of me to find almost every prisoner looking at me with anger.

"It seems you have a lot of old friends in here with you corporal. A lot of friends who are very angry and very unstable." He stated as he began to approach me.

I hit the metal gate and I had no where to go but forward into a mess of angry prisoners.

"Oh have I dreamed of this!" He stated as he clenched his fists.

I readied myself for a fight when I noticed a few of the guards watching.

I quickly looked back and he was nearly in my face.

He immediately swung at my face and I blocked it using the side of my left arm. Then maybe a spilt second after that he used his other arm and swung again. I blocked it using my right arm and he brought his knee up and drilled me in the stomach. I bent over slightly and he took advantage. He brought both his fists down on the back of my head and I was sent face first into the concrete floor.

The impact cut my face up and I began to bleed onto the floor as most of the prisoners cheered.

I tried to get up, but when I went to push myself up he grabbed me by the neck and by my pants and tossed me into the nearby metal table.

My body crashed into the table and I was sent flipping over it. I hit the floor hard and I began to hear him coming for more. I forced myself up and as soon as I turned to look at him he punched me in my face. I staggered and went to swing back, but he caught my arm.

My eyes widened as he smiled.

He quickly lifted me up with my arm and used his other hand to take me by my legs. He held me above his body and started to twirl me around. The prisoners cheered loudly as he readied to throw me again.

"AHHHHHHH!" He shouted as he tossed me as hard as he could.

I was sent through the air into the steel bared gate.

My back cracked on impact and I lowered my head in pain as blood dripped onto the cold floor.

I couldn't move the pain was killing me.

"Get him up!" He ordered.

A few of the prisoners came behind me and roughly grabbed me by the arms and one of them got me in the back of my head.

They got me to my feet and as he came at me with locked hands.

I stared at his fists in fear.

He smiled and launched a rocket of a punch.

His fist drilled me in my stomach and I immediately bent over in severe pain.

The one who held me by my head instantly brought me back up into his face.

I opened my eyes to find another one coming straight for me.

His fist connected into my cheek and as soon as my head went to the side my blood came splashing out. Then just as I tried to rest my head he tossed another punch using his opposite hand and connected it into the other side of my face. More of my blood came out as he looked at the other prisoners who held me.

"Release him!" He shouted.

The men obeyed and let me fall onto the floor.

He chuckled and slowly grabbed me by my neck.

He lifted me into his face and I fearfully opened my eyes to look at him.

"You know corporal I've been in this prison for way too long and it get's lonely without any women around. Do you know what that does to a lot of men in here?" He asked me with a small smile.

I was nearly knocked out and I couldn't respond in time.

"It makes a lot of us, including me; very bent up and in need of some type of stress relief." He stated as he began to check out my body.

I was scared.

He slowly rested his hand on my chest and began to go downward.

"When you're in jail for two years corporal you need to find other ways to please your own needs. Ohhhhhh." He stated as he reached my waist.

I began to shake hoping to break free from his grip. It was no use.

"And you're just the one I want." He stated as he grabbed my crotch.

My eyes widened in fear as he held me tightly.

He felt it for a few more seconds then tossed me to the ground next to his friends.

Shadow's POV

Ghost and I quickly made our way to Logan's office. Ghost's side was still bleeding a little, but it was nothing to worry about.

I approached the door with Ghost at my side and began to knock.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

We waited for a few seconds when Logan and Nexus came to the door to let us in.

"Good morning." Said Nexus as we entered.

"How did you guys sleep?" Asked Logan.

"Great." Replied Ghost.

Logan shut the door and went back behind hid desk.

"That's good." Stated Logan in a worried tone.

"Something wrong sir?" I asked.

Logan began to smile.

"Funny you should ask that Shadow. Something is wrong." Stated Logan.

"What is it?" I asked.

"It's about Carl." Replied Nexus.

"Is he ok?" I asked.

"He'll live, but he won't talk to anyone." Replied Logan.

"Why?" Asked Ghost.

"He's scared and we don't know if it was something G.U.N did to him. The only thing we can think of to make him talk is if you Shadow go and see him." Replied Logan.

"Why me?" I asked.

"You were the one to save his life, maybe in return for that he will be willing to say something to you." Stated Logan.

"I can try." I replied.

"He's resting in his quarters at the moment. Whoever G.U.N sent to interrogate him really fucked him up. His knees are destroyed and he might not be able to walk again thanks to it. I'll send Nexus here when I think its best you go see him." Stated Logan.

"Yes sir." I replied.

"Again I just wanted to say good job on your first mission. Are you two friends now?" Asked Logan.

Ghost and I both looked at each other.

"Yes sir." We both replied.

"Good." Stated Logan as he pointed at Nexus.

Nexus nodded and opened the door.

"You may go. You're off today; I have no work I need done yet." Stated Logan.

Ghost and I both nodded and stood up and made our way towards the door.

Ghost left and just as I was about to Nexus stopped me by shutting the door.

I quickly turned around and looked at Logan who was staring me down from his desk.

"I wanted to talk to you in private for a moment Shadow." Stated Logan.

"About?" I questioned.

Logan pointed at his face.

I knew now what he wanted to talk about.

I gently took my seat and waited.

"I hope you now what I am talking about." Stated Logan.

"I do and I don't know what to say, and even if I did I wouldn't know how to put it." I replied.

"Then let's keep this simple. As you can imagine I would like to know was it you who did this to me?" Asked Logan.

"Yes." I stated.

Logan shook his head in approval and looked at Nexus who was a bit angry.

"I believe that wasn't the only thing you did if I am correct." Stated Logan.

"I did kill that guard. I'm sorry Nexus. Ghost told me he was friends with you. Close ones." I replied.

"You told Ghost you did this to me?" Asked Logan.

"Yes, but I told him I was going to confront you about it and apologize." I replied.

Logan nodded his head then looked at Nexus who approached me from behind.

"You killed my nephew." Stated Nexus.

My eyes widened in shock.

"What?!" I asked in shock.

"He wanted me to give him a chance in the rebellion so I decided to let him escort Logan to that speech and along with the escort it was also his job to defend him. He did a great job until you shot him dead." Replied Nexus with a tear on his cheek.

I quickly looked at Logan.

"That's why I said before Nexus doesn't like you. We knew since you got here that it was you and your old partner who preformed the hit. As you can tell we're being nice right now, but Nexus and me want some type of compensation for our pain and suffering. Something to put my anger and Nexus's anger to rest along with his nephew." Stated Logan.

"What do you want?" I asked.

"We want the anti-rebellion gone." Replied Logan.

I widened my eyes.

"You want me and Ghost to take out the whole anti-rebellion!?" I shouted.

"No, just you. This is a classified mission. Not even Ghost can know." Stated Logan.

"How would I even stop them?" I asked.

"Easy. The anti-rebellion is small. Just gangs looking to make it big in G.U.N. They have a leader. He goes by the name of Stalker. His real name is Adam. Adam has killed and raped a lot of my women soldiers and they too want to see him burn. His stronghold is in the city, but is defended by his so called soldiers. My agents in the field have found his base and it is this complex." Replied Logan while handing me a photo.

I took the photo in my hand and it was a picture of an apartment complex.

"What do you want me to do?" I asked.

"I need you lieutenant to go and kill Adam and his men." Replied Logan.

"Anything else?" I asked.

"Get whatever Intel you can and leave." Replied Logan.

I slowly looked at Nexus.

"I just want peace for my nephew Shadow. I don't hate you. I just want this done, ok?" Asked Nexus.

I slowly looked back at Logan.

"Will you do it?" Asked Logan.

I looked back at Nexus and he was giving me a small smile of hope.

I quickly looked back at Logan and replied.

"Yes."

Nexus and Logan both smiled and walked me to the door.

"Thank you Shadow. Just don't tell anyone and don't die." Ordered Logan.

"Yes sir." I replied while leaving the office.

Nexus and Logan shut the door behind me and I found Ghost waiting for me.

"What was that all about?" Asked Ghost.

"Logan wanted to talk to me about his scar." I replied.

"How'd that go?" Asked Ghost.

"I apologized, I don't know if he forgives me but he wanted me to know that he knew so that it wouldn't affect us later in the line of duty." I replied.

Ghost nodded and we began to walk towards our quarters.

"I'm going to get a shower and get ready for the party." Stated Ghost.

"Alright I'll get one after you." I assured him.

Ghost nodded and when we entered our room he went straight to the shower.

I took my seat on the bed and rested my eyes in my hands.

"How I'm I going to do this?" I asked myself.

I guess I can leave tonight after the party, but Ghost will be worried and want to know where I was. It looks like I don't have a choice.

Ten minutes later

Ghost got done and got dressed. I was just laid back when he came out.

"Your turn." Stated Ghost while heading for the door.

"Where you going?" I asked while standing up.

"I'm going to find Charlie 2-9 so we can get together before we head out." Replied Ghost.

"I'll be out in like ten minutes." I stated.

"Alright we'll be at the entrance waiting for you." Replied Ghost while heading out.

I waved goodbye as Ghost shut the door.

As soon as he was gone I entered the bathroom and got undressed for my shower.

I smelt like shit from yesterday's mission because me and Ghost were so tired we didn't get showers when we got back.

I quickly turned on the water and waited for it to get hot. As I waited I looked down at my chest hair and found some blood on it.

I took a deep breath and felt the blood. It was hard and it came off in pieces, but you could tell it was there because underneath was red.

"Blood never comes off clean." I said to myself as I felt the water.

The water was hot enough and I slowly got in head first. My quills dripped off a ton of dirt and sand. It must have all set in my quills over night. Just the smell was enough to make me pass out. I slowly grabbed the shampoo and rubbed it into my quills. I looked at the bottle and it was strawberry mist. It smells good at the least.

As soon as I was done I shut off the water and tossed on a towel. I slowly approached the mirror and looked at myself. I was clean, but even though the blood was gone I still could feel it in my essence. I gently turned around and looked at the stitches where I was shot before. The wounds were almost sealed and the pain would go away with them I hope.

My towel accidentally fell down and I bent over to quickly pull it back up. I wrapped it tighter and turned around towards the door. I opened the door and entered into my room. I then quickly tossed on my cloths and went for the door. I knew Ghost was waiting for me, but I needed to find Amy first.

I quickly traveled the halls in search for her. Instead I found Dove.

I quickly approached her.

"Hey do you know where Amy is?" I asked.

Dove widened her eyes.

"No, hi Dove? Just hey where's Amy?" Said Dove in sarcasm.

"I'm sorry. Hi Dove. Now do you know where she is?" I asked.

Dove giggled and replied.

"She's in her office. Just through that door." Stated Dove while pointing at it.

"Thanks." I said while jogging for the door.

As soon as I approached the door my eyes widened in shock.

Amy's door read. Amy Rose head advisor of the rebellion.

I knew she wasn't the leader. Even though before this I knew but now I knew for sure.

I slowly knocked on the door and from behind it I heard.

"Come in!"

I opened the door to find her behind her desk doing paperwork.

"Oh, hi Shadow. What are you doing here?" Asked Amy in surprise.

I slowly approached her desk as she stared into my eyes.

"Ghost and I are going out into town for a couple of drinks to celebrate our first successful mission. I wanted to know if you were interested in joining us." I replied.

Amy gave me a small smile then stood up from behind her desk.

"I'm sorry Shadow, but I'm busy and I'm not one for dates." Stated Amy while grabbing her paperwork.

I lowered my head in sadness and suggested.

"It's doesn't have to be a date. I mean we just met a few nights ago. How about we just go out and get to know each other."

Amy smiled again and approached me.

"You're a nice guy Shadow, but you're not my type. I'm sorry, but I don't want to." Stated Amy sincerely.

My heart broke in two and I was going to try my best to keep it together.

"But…!" Amy cut me off.

"Please Shadow Stop. I don't want to be mean, but I don't want to date you. It's just that I have so many guys offering I'm kind of getting tired of it. I'm sorry, but please leave." Ordered Amy.

My heart definitely broke that time and I could feel my tears coming, but I held them in as I turned away from her and went for the door.

As soon as I opened the door I let a tear roll down my cheek.

I quickly pushed by Dove who was listening in on my despair.

Amy's POV

"I felt horrible for lying like that to him, but I had no choice." I said to Dove who was at the door looking at me in shock.

"What's the problem Amy? Shadow's perfect for you. You have so many things in common I can just tell by looking at you two." Stated Dove.

"Dove; I can't be with him. He almost killed me." I replied.

"He was confused. Led by false information from G.U.N. He didn't even shoot at you." Stated Dove.

"That's what I'm afraid of Dove. Why didn't he shoot me?" I asked her.

"Go ask him." Replied Dove.

"I can't. He's mad already and I'm afraid he may hurt me." I stated.

Dove looked at me in confusion.

"He dedicated his life to the rebellion. And I can tell he likes you. Shadow wouldn't dream of hurting you." Replied Dove.

"How do you know that? You barely talk to him." I stated.

"I can just tell. Trust me Amy you're making a mistake throwing him away." Warned Dove as she turned to go back to work.

I quickly grabbed my paperwork for Logan and left to go to his office. I don't know what I should do. I mean I kind of like him, but I'm just afraid.

Shadow's POV

I quickly wiped the tears from my face and found Ghost and 2-9 by the entrance to the capital building.

"You ready Shadow?" Asked Ghost.

I didn't reply I just nodded my head and signed out on the clipboard.

Ghost knew something was wrong and so did 2-9.

As soon as I was done signing my name Ghost pulled me aside.

"What's wrong?" Asked Ghost.

I let another tear roll down my face.

Ghost widened his eyes and quickly wiped it of my cheek.

I looked into his eyes.

"Hey don't worry about her; I'm sure she'll come around." Stated Ghost.

I nodded my head slightly and Ghost wiped off another tear from my face.

"Come on and let's have some fun. I'm sure it will take your mind off things." Stated Ghost.

I nodded again and Ghost wrapped his arm around my shoulder and took me towards 2-9 who were waiting by the door.

"You two good?" Asked one of the men from 2-9.

I looked at Ghost and he looked back at them.

"Oh, sorry. I'm Archer and this is Jason." Stated Archer.

The two of them were both hedgehogs. Jason was a light tan with white streaks and Archer was a gray hedgehog with blue eyes. All of us were in uniform so we basically looked the same. The only way you could tell the difference was by our patches. They had a crosshair with two snipers crossing on it.

"You ok?" Asked Jason.

"We're fine, come on lets go." Replied Ghost.

I felt like shit, but I was completely in the mood for a drink now.

Me, Ghost, Jason, and Archer began to make our way out of the building towards the city.

Dark's POV

"Hold him!" He shouted to his friends.

I couldn't crawl anywhere because all the prisoners had me surrounded.

Four of them approached me and each one grabbed a limb of mine to hold as he got behind me.

"You! Get his pants!" He shouted.

As I was being forced down another prisoner came and got behind me. He quickly undid my belt and tore it off with force. I tried to break free, but I was too over powered.

The prisoner then pulled down my BDU pants and ripped them down towards my boots.

I heard a few of the men cheer in sexual joy as I was being assaulted.

The prisoner then did all that was left and pulled down my boxers.

I tried to look back at there boss and when I saw him he was getting ready.

"Don't Carver; please! I'm sorry!" I screamed in hopelessness.

Carver slowly undid his pants.

"You're sorry! HAHAHAHA! That's a good one Dark! You're only sorry because you're the one getting fucked!" Shouted Carver.

Carver then pulled down his pants along with his boxers and my eyes widened. I was scared. I had to break free.

I tried so hard to get free, but the second I tried to move I was hit in the back of my head. My face bounced off the concrete floor and I was unable to move. I was going to black out.

I felt Carver position himself and I was unable to do anything.

"This is what you get for screwing me out of two years of my life you little bitch!" Shouted Carver as he moved in.

I felt Carver make contact and my eyes widened in shock.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" I screamed with no one to care.

I know this was a very twisted chapter and I hope that was a huge twist. Please review and let me know what you thought as always. Thanks for the support and if you were able to read up to this note without stopping for air then I salute you.
