Love Struck

Chapter 33 - The Power Of Nothing

Dark's POV

Me and the boys just got back to base and we finally found a chance to rest.

As I was laying down Keller looked at me.

"Dark?!" He shouted from across the room.

I slowly looked at him. I was busy sleeping but I guess he doesn't care.

"What!?" I shouted back

"How do you feel?!" He replied.

"I guess maybe he does care." I said to myself.

"Strong!" I replied while looking at my body.

Walker was doing weapons check and quickly walked between us while carrying our guns.

"Just make sure not to overdose. Otherwise that venom will fuck you up." He stated as he laid the guns down on one of the tables in our room.

"What happens if I do?" I asked him.

Walker slowly smiled and took out the clip to his M9.

He then approached me.

"You see this clip?" He asked as he held it in my face.

"Yes." I replied.

"Good; now say this clip is your mind and inner being." He said as he went for the bullets.

He slowly popped the rounds out of the clip one by one.

"If you take to much of the venom your mind will slowly fade away until…! Click!"

Walker ran out of rounds to take out and the clip was empty.

"Your nothing but a body with no soul or heart. Just an empty vessel waiting to die." He finished as he went to clean up the ammo.

I quickly went back to shutting my eyes when someone banged on the door.

"BANG! BANG! BANG!"

I opened my eyes as Keller approached the door.

When he opened it there was only one person behind it and it happened to be the commander.

He quickly started.

"Get up, get dressed, and get loaded because we have to move!" He shouted at us.

We looked at him in confusion.

"What's wrong?" Asked Keller.

"We got Intel that we need to move on now if we want to end this war!" He replied while exiting the room.

We quickly panicked and tossed on our cloths along with our weapons that Walker tossed to us. Then we ran after the boss.

He smashed through the debriefing room door and we ran in behind him.

We stopped once we saw everyone who was there.

The commander took his seat next to the General of the G.U.N Navy and to his left was the commander of Defense along with the General of the G.U.N Air force and the commander of the G.U.N international Control. They all stared at us as we looked around at the door.

"Take your seat!" Ordered the commander.

We obeyed without question and sat in front of the board.

The commander slowly stood up and pointed at each one of us.

"Gentlemen; these are the men I told you about earlier. I promise this will get done." Stated the commander as he pointed at me.

"This is Sergeant Kevin Smith, along with Sergeant Walker Tomas and Captain Keller Miller. Their the best we have and they will get this done." Stated the commander as he retook his seat.

We waited as the board came on.

Then the Commander of defense rose up to continue.

"You men will have to be the best to pull this off. We received hard Intel from inside the rebellion that the leader's men are being distracted by the small war raging through the streets against the anti-rebellion. In short there's no one around the capital. The informant has also confirmed that the leader is alone and undefended at this very moment. That means we have the chance to end this for once and for all. We need your team Captain to infiltrate the capital and capture the rebellion's leader." He stated.

"Capture sir? I thought we were going to kill her?" Questioned Keller.

"She has more Intel on the Pakistanis who we believe are about to start an uprising of their own. We get this target and I need you to get the info we need. Everyone is hostile, no fuck ups. I need this done. The world needs this done. We must end this now!" Shouted the Commander of defense as he retook his seat.

Slowly the General of the Navy got up.

"Alright men I have a chopper that will take you in and extract you out when you call in. the chopper will only land for five minutes; call it in too early and you'll have to find a way out on your own." He stated.

Walker then raised his hand.

"Yes?" Said the General.

"Any support?" Asked Walker.

"We need to keep this low key, but due to the fighting we can provide mortars." He replied.

Walker nodded and waited.

"Just call it in and we will launch. You can also thank the General for the chopper boys. It's the best he has so don't break it." Stated the General of the Navy as he took his seat.

We watched as the General of the Air force stood up.

"As he said your welcome. The call sign for the chopper is Echo 2-5 and before you ask we cannot provide air support. It's too dangerous." Stated the general.

We nodded as the commander of the G.U.N international Control stood up in front of us.

"Men what you are about to do tonight will be the start of a new world full of order and respect. You end this war now and make sure no one is to face us again. We can not allow for such fighting in a world ruled by G.U.N." He stated as he let our commander speak.

He quickly tossed up the image on the board behind him.

"This is her."

My eyes widened in shock. It was the same as from before. I immediately asked.

"When do we kill her?"

Everyone looked at me in surprise.

"You head out in one hour. Don't kill her before you get are info. Got me?" He replied.

I nodded and relaxed as I felt revenge for Shadow in my reach.

"Dismissed!" Shouted the commander.

Everyone got up and we made our way back to our quarters.

In one hour this all gets finished for good.

Shadow's POV 1:00am

"BANG!"

My eyes opened in pain as a lightning bolt woke me from my slumber.

The rain was worse then before when I was awake and I smell smoke.

I slowly crawled to get a good look of the city. My heart raced as all I saw was fire and I could hear gunshots all across the city. What happened while I was out?

I slowly looked at my hand and it was in place once again but still in pain.

I could move it though.

I slowly pushed myself up and on my feet.

The second I went to stand all I felt was sand and hard blood fall off me in waves.

I slowly began to head back into the city.

I felt as if I had to go back. Not for Amy or Ghost but for myself. It was as if something was going to happen soon and I couldn't miss it for whatever reason.

I slowly made it to the city limits and walked through the streets.

I found almost everyone of Logan's men fighting building to building against the anti-rebellion.

This was suppose to be simple instead it's a war.

I began to run towards the capital.

The entrance was unguarded and dark. I slowly entered inside to find the arms master looking at me in shock.

"Fuck Shadow! What the hell happened to you!?" He asked while approaching the window.

I slowly looked him in the eyes and asked.

"What's going on out there?"

The arms master relaxed and replied.

"Seems the anti-rebellion was a bit tougher then we thought. Logan's men are doing all they can and according to the reports the little firefight will burn out soon enough."

I nodded slowly and asked.

"Where's Logan?"

"In his office, why?" He asked back.

"I need to talk to him is all." I replied while walking towards the halls.

I quickly approached his office and immediately I kicked open his door with force.

Logan was behind his desk and he immediately leaped out of his seat.

"Shadow!?" He shouted in confusion as I approached him.

I knew there was a reason why I was to come back here.

I quickly grabbed Logan by his neck and pinned him into the wall behind him.

Logan grabbed my hand as hard as he could.

"Shadow…stop!" He tried to say.

I got in his face.

"Why should I stop for someone like you?" I asked.

Logan began to turn red.

"I know your mad and Ahhh, I know you believe I had sex with Amy but…its not what it seems." He stated.

I thought about it for a second and released his neck.

Logan immediately hit the floor and tried to catch his breath.

I quickly picked him up and tossed him into the wall.

He was still a little red.

"You have one chance to convince me. Now start." I ordered him.

Logan hesitated and I pulled out the blade I still held in my back.

Logan panicked as I rested it on his neck.

"Ok! Ok!" He shouted in fear.

I pulled back on my strength but still held it on his neck.

"Amy told me everything you and her did and I promise I would make this right Shadow but…!" I pushed on the blade and Logan pinned himself on the wall.

"Stop stalling and out with!" I screamed.

"We only kissed!" He shouted back in a hurry.

I put my blade down and stared him straight in the face.

"Why should I believe you?" I asked.

"You don't have to, but I know you believe Amy and she told you the same as me. We only kissed. Nothing else happened Shadow I swear." He stated.

"Where is she?" I asked.

"Sleeping, why?" Replied Logan.

"We're going to settle this in the morning and you better be there." I said in force.

"Does that mean you believe me?" Asked Logan.

I began to turn around.

"I don't know yet. I'm not ready to believe any of you. We will see tomorrow." I replied.

"Your room is being fixed Shadow." Stated Logan.

"So where do I go?" I asked.

"Ghost is with Dove. You can sleep there, but if you feel better with Nexus go right ahead." Replied Logan.

I didn't respond. I left him alone to himself and made my way to Dove's room.
