Love Struck
Chapter 61 - Love or Target
Commander Jorge Lehigh
"Are you sure?" I asked the informant.
"Yes sir." He replied.
"Alright, I'll have my men there within the next day." I stated.
"He's not going anywhere so don't worry." Stated the informant.
"I hope your right." I replied as I closed my cell phone ending the call.
I slowly rested my phone back on my desk and with all the anger I have built up I quickly grabbed it and tossed it at the wall next to my door.
The phone smashed against the wall just as someone entered my office.
"Wo!" She shouted as the phone scattered around the room.
I quickly looked up to find my secretary.
I was so pissed.
"What!?" I shouted at her.
She grew scared and replied.
"I'm here to let you know Kevin wishes to speak to you, sir."
I immediately shouted.
"I want him in here within the next five seconds!"
The women panicked as I started.
"ONE!"
She ran out of my room and out of my sight as I continued.
"TWO!"
No response.
"THREE!"
I heard running.
"FOUR!"
She bashed through my door with Dark in her hand and sent him towards my desk.
I was so mad I couldn't explain it.
I quickly pointed at Dark.
"SIT THE FUCK DOWN AND YOU GET THE HELL OUT!" I screamed at the pair of them.
Dark immediately sat down as my secretary left as soon as I looked at her.
She shut the door as I stared at Dark.
He remained silent as I started.
"I think I'll start by asking, what the hell do you want!?"
Dark looked at me and he too was a little scared and he slowly replied.
"I wanted to talk to you about that intruder we had in the base last week."
I kept on the pressure.
"WHY!?"
Dark was scared and replied.
"He killed both Dr. Tomas and my squad member James! And that reminds me; why was he my new teammate!?" Asked Dark while getting mad.
Dark went to stand up but I immediately pushed his black furry ass back down in the seat.
"James saw you when I sent him to save your ungrateful black ass! If he would have told anyone the word would have been out about you begin alive! If that were to happen we would both be killed! I got him to join so that wouldn't happen!" I replied.
"And look at what happened to him!" Screamed Dark as he stood back up and got in my face.
I immediately grabbed him by his neck.
"HE WASN'T SUPPOSE TO DIE!" I screamed.
"BUT HE DID, AND WHAT ABOUT KELLER AND WALKER!?" He asked back in rage.
"THOSE FUCKING REBELLION ASSASSIANS WERE NOT SUPPOSE TO BE THERE!" I replied while turning red.
"BUT THEY WERE AND ALL OF MY FRIENDS HAVE DIED AGAIN AND AGAIN BECAUSE OF YOUR ORDERS!" Stated Dark while taking my neck.
"YOU HAD YOUR MISSION!" I replied.
"AND SO DID YOU! YOUR JOB IS TO KEEP US ALIVE AND YOU FAILED!" Screamed Dark while we began to fight each other.
"I'M SORRY!" I screamed in anger.
Dark pulled back on his force but still held my neck.
"TELL THAT TO MY BROTHER!" He shouted.
My eyes widened.
"WHAT?!"
Dark slipped something and I was going to find out what.
He didn't respond.
"WHAT!?" I screamed again.
"SHADOW!" He replied while letting me go.
I still held him as he let a tear roll down his cheek.
"What?" I asked while beginning to relax.
"Why do you think I was so angry at his death? Why do you think I sent Cole and Raze out on that mission? Why do you think I'm here now?" He asked in tears.
"Shadow was your…!" Dark cut me off.
"My brother."
I felt like shit as he cried.
"I didn't know." I stated.
"You weren't suppose to." He replied.
I nodded.
"That's illegal." I stated.
"Why do you think we kept it a secret!?" He shouted in anger.
I nodded.
"I can understand. So what you faked entry forms? "I asked calmly.
Dark nodded slowly.
"You were still lucky to even get him as your sniper." I stated.
Dark nodded again.
"I'm not mad at you for that, if anything I'm sorry." I stated.
Dark looked at me as if I had two heads.
"I'm serious. I wish he was alive." I stated.
"It's my fault he's gone." Stated Dark.
"How?" I asked.
"I left him." Replied Dark.
My eyes widened.
"I was shot and scared." Stated Dark.
"And Shadow?" I asked.
"He was downed by a sniper. I was too scared to go get him. He watched as I sat and flew away." Replied Dark.
I stared at him with mix feelings.
"You left him to die, but I understand why you left. You were scared for you life as well." I stated.
Dark nodded.
"He's dead and he doesn't know how I feel." Stated Dark.
"How do you feel?" I asked.
"Like shit. I never meant to leave him like that. I just wish he could know how sorry I am and how much I love him." Replied Dark.
"Then how about you get back on the people who killed him and your friends?" I asked as I took my seat.
Dark looked at me in confusion.
"I just received a call from my informant in the rebellion and he has word on those so called assassins." I stated.
"What!?" Shouted dark in disbelief.
"He knows where he is and what he's is doing. Apparently he just had a baby girl and they are out celebrating the occasion. That pink hedgehog is with him as well and so are some other high values like the assassins girlfriend." I stated.
Dark was ready.
"If we want to end this war we must kill this man. You need to get him alone to do it because his partner is right there with him. I think it would be best to lure him out alone without causing a fight." I stated.
"How?" Asked Dark.
"The baby." I stated.
Dark widened his eyes as I leaned back in my chair.
Ghost's POV
It was getting late but this was the best night of my life and I think it also goes for Dove as well. Even our baby girl is loving all the fun. I don't think there is one thing that is ever going to end this.
I enjoyed my steak as me and Dove sat between our baby girl who was playing with her food.
It was so weird trying to act like a father figure for the first time.
She gently giggled as she twirled her vegetables around the glass plate.
I slowly put my finger on her hand.
The second it made contact she stared into my eyes with awe.
"Don't play with your food honey." I told her with a smile.
She smiled back and went back to eating it with her hands.
Slowly Dove hugged my arm as I looked over at Shadow and Amy who smiled at me.
I knew it was weird for them too, but honestly I just can't wait till tonight.
Shadow's POV
I smiled as Ghost disciplined his cute little baby girl.
I love her already. I can't wait till Amy is ready for her moment.
"Hey what did I miss?" Asked Logan as he came back.
I stared at him as he put his cell phone away and sat down.
"Nothing much, just Ghost being a dad." Stated Amy.
Logan smiled and replied.
"I'm sorry I missed it."
Ghost and Dove smiled and we all continued to eat.
