Love & War: The Black Moons

Chapter 33: It's Personal

It is now the crack of dawn and Chris and Jade were still sleeping, cuddled together. Suddenly, a missile hit Samus' ship from behind. This woke the couple up.

"What the hell...?"

Samus was flying the ship when she learned where the missile came from The couple quickly got dressed.

"KANO!" Samus shouted angrily.

"Are you fuckin' kidding me?" Chris shouted angrily too. Soon they were surround by Black Dragon fighter jets.

"What does he want now?" Jade asked. Kano spoke through a radio frequency.

"Miss Aran, guess who's working with Bison now!"

"NO!" Jade feared for the worst. Kano working with Bison. This can't be good.

"And Chris, my favorite soldier, you've been a thorn at my side for too long. It's time for you to die!"

The frequency cuts off.

"We need to make a emergency landing. Hang on!"

Samus made an emergency landing in Ohio. The three got out. To Chris' surprise, he finds that he is back to his old home in Columbus before he left for military service. It had been 5 years since he moved to Los Angeles with his wife and daughter to start a new life, before Kano took it away out of sheer hatred and hostility towards him. Samus activated the ship's cloaking device, knowing that Black Dragon fighter jets will be looking for it. As they traveled by bus, Chris developed memories of growing up in the city. He had a tough childhood, but he grew wiser beyond that as he matured.

"Where are we?" Asked Jade.

"According to my ship, we are in Columbus, Ohio."

"My former home," Chris added.

Jade looked at him curiously. "You lived here?"

"I grew up here. I moved to L.A. with my wife and daughter before I was assigned to military service."

They then arrived in the West side of the city. They visited his former home, but it seemed devoid of any existence. He went into the kitchen and found a note.

"'ello, mate. Eventually, you will find this note. When I learned that you and Sonya were coming for me, I decided to make you my new favorite target. So what better way to play with your fragile mind than to kill your family. That's right, chump. I then met up with you and told you to go to Cuba to stop a drug trade operation, which I used to go to your pretty wife and daughter and kill them as well. I knew for a long time how weak-minded you are. "You're a pathetic excuse for a soldier and a family man. So now you know why you are alone in a cold, harsh world. Now, IT'S YOUR TURN!

"Nothing personal, mate."

"Sincerely yours, Kano."

After Chris finished, he started feeling a mix of sadness and anger at the same time. He tossed the note on the floor, clenched his fist and screamed as he punch the door of the fridge so hard, it broke in two. He looked at his hand, large amounts of blood were pouring from his fingers. He imagined the blood to be Kano's, which he will spill very soon. Without a fuck given, he closed his fist. He picked up the note and put it in his pocket and said while looking at is blood-soaked fist with fire in his eyes, "Kano, you murdered my wife and daughter, but when you murdered my family, you crossed the line! When I find you, YOU'RE A DEAD MAN!"
