Love Struck
Chapter 130 - Don't Look
Ghost's POV
I stopped the Humvee right next to the blown up convey. Bodies laid all over the floor covered in gunshots and blood. Carver managed to finally catch up with me and as I looked around he asked.
"Do you see him?"
I shook my head.
"No."
Carter said he fell off the ridge, lets check the bottom. Said Carver as he began to walk in front of me.
Slowly he let me take lead and we began to check the boulders leading below the ridge.
As we neared I began to see blood. A lot of it.
Carefully I got closer with Carver behind me to slowly rest my eyes on him.
"OH MY GOD!" I screamed as I felt my stomach crunch up.
In no time I began to puke. Carver got me in his arms so I wouldn't fall and as I puked he stared at Frost.
"Jesus Christ." He stated as I managed to stop.
"I can't!" I stated as Carver nodded.
"I know just relax. I'll do it." He assured me as he let me sit down.
I watched as Carver stared to climb over some of the boulders. He managed to reach him.
I saw his face clutch as he knelt down next to Frost's head.
I couldn't see anything else. The boulders were in the way.
After a few seconds Carver came back over to me. I watched him as he began to check the bodies.
After he got done searching a few he came back to me once again.
"What?" I asked in sadness.
Carver slowly looked down at me and replied.
"I think Carter is lying." He stated.
I widened my eyes and asked.
"How?"
Carver slowly took my hand and said.
"I'll know once I get to the top of that ridge."
I slowly got up and he guided us up to the top of the ridge. As we approached where Frost must have fallen it became clear something really was wrong.
Carter let me go and slowly he picked the sniper rifle up off the ground.
"Carter said Frost was shot in the back by a sniper. This is the only one here and it's the one he took from the base. It's ours, if anything he shot him. Then as I was searching the body I found a stab wound. Carter has a knife about the size of the wound and I know G.U.N doesn't carry blades so another reason why it was him." He stated while I asked.
"What are you saying?"
Carver dropped the gun and replied.
"Carter killed him."
My eyes were widened as he took my hand and got me on my feet.
"But why?" I asked as Carver took a breath.
"Do you know why he was locked up?" He asked.
"No." I replied.
"Carter is a mass murderer and a rapist. I should have seen this coming." Stated Carver as he began to head back down the ridge.
"Seen what coming?!" I asked as we got to the bottom.
Carver stopped and replied.
"He's going to kill Shadow."
I widened my eyes and asked.
"WHY!?"
Carver ignored me and quickly we began to run.
I followed Carver as he ran and suddenly as we booked it back to base I stopped in my tracks to see a photo.
Slowly I picked it up to see it was Frost's son. With care I put it under my armor and continued to run after Carver who made it to the car.
If Carver is right then my brother is in danger. If he kills Shadow this war is fucked. We have to stop him.
Carter's POV
I entered the research wing were they are holding Shadow and found the door closed.
As I thought about what to do I saw that cat making his way to his quarters. Slowly I began to follow him.
I watched as he went inside and the second he entered I knocked on the door.
"Knock! Knock!"
Quickly he answered.
"Carter?" He asked in surprise as I clutched my fist.
"SMACK!"
The cat dropped on the floor and as fast as I could I dragged him to the bed.
With haste I laid him down and took the keycard off his jacket.
Slowly I made my way to the door and shut it behind me.
No one saw me as I scanned the card on the door.
"Bing! Click!"
The steel door opened and quickly I entered.
With ease I saw him laying on the bed.
Slowly I grabbed the nearby scalpel and began to approach him.
Shadow opened his eyes to see me and as far as me killing him it was doing him a favor. He's going to die anyway.
In seconds I stopped next to the bed to have him try and hold back my hand. It was sad to say the least.
"Shhhhhh…it will be quick. Just like Dark." I stated calmly as he let his hand drop with widened eyes of confusion.
What will happen? We will see after the holiday.
There will not be a chapter tomorrow because like many of you I got a lot to do tomorrow with family. So expect the chapter the day after. Love you all and enjoy the holiday.
