The choppers were closing on MI-6 at England, but many things were twisting inside the boy's mind...It was a hard call... "Joining Delta Red, just like that?" the young man wandered...
"You're... You're asking me to join you?"
"Why not? Is there anywhere you can go or anything you can do?" Wolfman said back.
"..." The boy was thinking hard.
Cammy was watching the conversation and she objected:
"Colonel, he knows my name! Not to mention he was able to read some of my movements somehow!"
"Hmm, that makes things interesting, right Captain?"
"But sir, he is not even brainwashed, how can this be?" She said back.
The boy stroke a smile and said:
"It's natural, since Bison was not in the picture."
"You mean that Bison wasn't back there?" Cammy asked.
" If he was, I would be brainwashed right now. Those guys weren't exactly Shadaloo either..."
"... Is that so?" Cammy said back to him, feeling a bit relaxed. For a moment she thought that Bison has returned.
"Besides, i've heard that Bison was defeated in the last World Tournament and he never showed up from since..." the lad added.
"... But, how did you ended up there in the first place?" Cammy replied.
She was very curious to learn about the boy's adventures. Same goes for the Colonel. The boy couldn't hold back anymore, he knew well they wouldn't let him alone, so he began to explain himself.
"Well... I was kidnapped by these guys a long time ago. It seems that my fighting abilities attracted them... I used to pick up fights in the streets, placing bets and stuff like that. It was nothing out of the ordinary." the young man said.
"So, you were into martial arts, right?" Wolfman said.
"Correct. When I became of age, I loved watching fights and I wanted to do the same. My parents didn't liked the idea, but i've managed to convince them that martial arts could come in handy... Well, they actually DID came in handy...!" he said, looking back at the island where that base was.
"What about your parents?" Cammy said.
"Well... They HAD to go through them in order to get me... And they did..."
Cammy looked away. "You've been through a tough road, even the fact that you're not brainwashed..." she said to herself.
"Hey, it's OK, I've been through it, really, that happened many years ago...!"
Wolfman felt sorry for the young man but he needed more info about him.
"It's most unfortunate..." Wolfman said.
"...Don't worry about it..."
"Your name, boy?"
" Lawrence. Caius Lawrence." The lad finally revealed his name.
"Hmm, it has an epic feeling to it!" Wolfman said with a smile.
"Huh, come on!"
"I'm Colonel Wolfman and I see that you know Cammy very well!" he said back
"Yeah... I suppose you want some answers, right Cammy?"
"What would be perfect."
"Well, those guys had data on you and from the other fighters. They let me study some of your moves and i've gathered many clues about your fighting style and the rest of the fighters who participated in the last World Tournament."
"To what end?" Cammy said.
"You were my... potential targets! But without mister B. and his Psycho Power, maybe we can be... potential allies!" he said with a smirk.
So, I take that as a "Yes, i'll join you?" Wolfman said.
"Sure, i'm up for a challenge...!" Caius said.
"That's great, we could really use people like you!" Wolfman said.
Cammy looked a bit skeptic, but she had to trust Colonel Wolfman on that one.
"Maybe he will turn out well... But i'll keep my eyes on him, just in case... And those guys who kidnapped him, they were not "exactly" Shadaloo?" she said to herself.
Delta Red awaits...
