Chapter 4

Ring a Ding Ship Chase

After a day on the ship Reese was enjoying the nice relaxing view, no one chasing after him just silence of the ocean.

Reese was on the upper deck taking a sun tan it felt really good to have the sun on him after days in his armor his skin looked like it was white as snow.

Now after his tan Reese got back into his cabin then saw the file that Winter gave him before she left him to get back to work, Reese was now really curious what is in that file so after his shower he decided to look at it.

Reese then ripped open the seal and the contents were out for him to see, and it was information relating to the Atlas operations on Patch and from the looks of it they were doing something illegal that no matter who investigates finds no evidence.

But according to Winters investigation reveals that in one of the primary cities of Patch they are doing a drug trade and general abuse of power i.e using violence or rape to get what they want.

Right around the point of abuse of power Reese was getting madder and madder by the second, then he saw the objectives destroy the building, and arrest the head commander.

"You got it Winter." was all Reese said.

But then Reese saw a little note on the last page it read.

"Reese this is where most of your training took place so you might remember some details when you get there." Winter wrote.

Then to frighten Reese a bit more they started to expand their grip on Patch, now Reese wanted to get rid of them because he didn't want them to hurt Yang or anyone else.

Then Reese heard something outside his door like someone was holding a laughter in them, Reese then open palmed strike the carpet which created a sound wave that only Reese could hear. ( a byproduct of all the drugs injected into him. )

Then as the sound wave went out the door he saw 3 silhouettes of young woman.

"Why does this keep happening to me?" Reese asked Patty.

"That you keep attracting girls Reese? Patty said as she materialized in front of Reese as Yang.

"Yeah i kinda hate it, i already have a girlfriend and a loving mother that's all i need right now." Reese whispered.

Then right on cue a pink slip of paper came under his door, then he heard running he waited a few more seconds then got up to see what the note said.

It said "Hey hunky stuff we want to hang with you for the night meet us near the front of the ship."

Reese then looked at Patty and she looked back at Reese.

"Well i don't know what is going on here but i don't like it." Reese said.

"How do you know?"Patty asked

"Firstly there were 3 of them 2nd they were using terms that make me suspect that they have a bad motive to use me." Reese answered.

"Well i can see your logic but you can't stay cooped up in here or they will track you down every time you try to do something else." Patty said to Reese.

"Then there is only one option." Reese said as he puts on the Predator armor.

A Few minutes latter.

Reese was standing near the front of the ship cloaking from the rest of the passengers waiting for the three woman to show up, Winter once told him that how you tell if a woman respects herself is how she is dressed and how the makeup is applied, the formulation for that is 80-20.

Then right at 6 o'clock there were the 3 woman and from the looks of it they were hot looking but Yang took the top spot for hotness factor, then Reese used the binoculars on his armor to see what they are wearing.

One to the left look like she was wearing a tee shirt that was blue in color and the shorts she had on were too short for him to bear he could see a little bit of her rear end, and Reese didn't like that one bit.

Then the one in the center of the group had on a one piece dress that was dark blue looking and the skirt was barely touching her legs, now this one had some respect for herself.

Then the last one to the right when Reese turned to look he had to look away the sight made his eyes burn literally, can one say prostitute, she had on tube bra that Reese could see and a tank top that showed her belly and a short skirt that was a little bit too short for Reese to like, this one did not respect herself.

And for the makeup they had did a good job they all looked good but it was the way they were dressed that really killed the moment, but he had to go see them or they come after him.

"I hate this situation." Reese said under his breath as he deactivated the armors active camouflage.

Reese was wearing just a long sleeved shirt and cargo pants and as always he has the direct energy weapon concealed and locked in a holster that only he could unlock.

Then Reese rounded the corner and all 3 of the young woman look at him, and judging by the looks they were giving him they had some less than pure thoughts.

As Reese got closer they started coming to him.

"Hi!" they all say simultaneously.

Then they gave their names starting from the left said.

"I'm Tina."

The middle one said.

"I'm Heather."

Then the one on the right said.

"I'm Nikki."

"What is your name?" Tina asks.

"I'm Reese." Reese said back.

"Hey Reese let's head to the dance club and party all night." Tina said.

"Well that's a problem i have been to many clubs this past week, and the last one i went to i got out alive there was a shootout between Atlas forces and the White Fang,

So i'm taking a break from clubs for the moment but when i get to Vale i'll party all night long." Reese says to them.

"Well you're no fun." Nikki said back at Reese with a sour look on her face.

"The one thing we noticed about you is that you're alone." said Tina.

"Well i am alone but i'm traveling to see my girlfriend who lives on Patch." Reese says hoping they will leave him be for the rest of the trip, but from the looks of it they aren't buying it.

"Well we don't believe that." said Heather.

"Well believe what you want i'm going to the arcade to play around, if you don't want to join then that's your call." Reese said as he turned to go the arcade area.

"Wait!" all three said at the same time.

"We will go with you we are bored with our time." said Nikki.

They then followed Reese to the arcade and started to play the various games there, some of the games the girls beat Reese in others Reese beat them.

Then on the final game which happens to be a dance off game.

"Hey i got an idea." said Nikki.

"What do you have in mind?" Reese asks.

"Well if we win you come back to our cabins and you spend the night with us, if you win we will let you be for the rest of the trip sounds fair?" Nikki said.

Reese then tapped his chin for a few seconds all the while Patty hacked into the machine and prepped it so that Reese could win.

"Your on!" Reese said.

So the girls go first and they got a 97% complete on their dance.

"Beat that Reese,i'm going to warm up for tonight." Nikki said with a evil grin on her face.

Reese said nothing as he got ready then started his turn so far so good, right around halfway through the dance the ship then violently rocked from an explosion.

"Patty sitrep!" Reese said out loud.

At this point the 3 girls were looking at him wondering who Reese is talking to.

"There are two smaller ships that are attacking us one on the left side the other on the right they are preparing to board us." said Patty.

"Got it." said Reese as he pulled out the direct energy weapon and flipped the safety to KILL.

"Hey you can't have guns here!" said Tina.

Reese then looked back at her and said.

"Well if you want to die right now that's your call, but i'm going to live, and besides i'm part of the military." Reese says as he ran off to find the pirates and get rid of them.

"They are going straight to the bridge Reese." Patty said.

"Lock the doors to it make them have to do something else." Reese said.

"Done there is one planting bombs in the engine room." Patty said.

"Lead me to him." was all Reese said.

Engine room.

The pirate then planted the last device on the critical areas and armed them.

The idea for the pirates is to rob the ship then sink it so that there are no witnesses, unfortunately there is someone there that's going to ruin their idea.

Reese then entered the engine room and started to look for the bombs and started to defuse them.

Reese then left the room with all the bombs in his arms then the pirate saw him and was about to call for help, then without warning Reese charged forward at a speed that no human could achieve.

Then the pirate found his throat in Reese's hand's.

But Reese wasn't going to question him crunch was all Reese herd.

Then the pirates started to panic because someone was killing them off one by one, as the leader was sending men to look for the bastard who is doing this he tapped into the detonators for the bombs and he hit the clackers, but instead the bombs destroyed the two speed boats they came in on they are trapped and now Reese was in full combat mode unleashed no rules anything goes.

Soon there were 5 pirates left.

"Take hostages we will use them as leverage." said the leader.

One of the girls that Reese was with got taken and Reese saw it happen but didn't do anything well not yet any way.

"Sir we have found our brothers in arms looks like some of them died in horrible ways we need to get out of here." one of the minions says.

"Fool we still have hostages they will let us through." Said the leader.

"Patty tap me into the intercom system i want to talk to them." Reese says.

"Done." says Patty.

"Listen up who ever you are, you are trapped on this ship and i'm not happy that you're here to ruin everyone's good time, so i'm going to give you one chance to surrender without any more bloodshed or i hunt you all down and your body's will be shark food,your call." Reese said.

"We got people on here and we will kill them if you don't let us through." the leader said.

After a moment's pause Reese called back.

"I'll still come after you even if you do that, here i come. (click) Reese said.

"Sir we are in the open we are exposed!" said one of the other minions.

"Just stay behind the hostages." said the leader.

Soon 30 minutes passed and nothing happened then the leader noticed 2 of his minions are gone without a trace.

"3 left." Reese said.

"What happened to the other two?" said the leader with panic in his voice.

Then without warning the other 2 minions got sliced up into precise chunks, then the leader saw a flicker like someone was standing there a demon with red eyes and covered in black armor.

Then the leaders face went from confident to scared in a fraction of a second.

The leader then grabbed Nikki the same girl Reese was with and held her in front of him like a human shield.

"STAY BACK STAY BACK!" the leader said.

Reese did nothing just stand there with his Blackhawk pistol out. ( that is the name of the Direct energy weapon name is now).

"Can't do that." Reese calmly said.

As Reese waited for the Blackhawk pistol for a lock on to the target, then he got it and just in time to.

"Move back or i'll kill her!" the leader said as he cocked his pistol.

Pewwwvep the blackhawk said as it fired.

The round found it's mark the head of the pirate then inflated like a balloon and it blew up covering everyone in his blood.

Nikki who was in front of him got the worst of it now she was in fear, but most of the time she wondered who Reese is most of the time.

Reese then got back to his room after helping the crew with clean up and took a shower in his armor to clean the blood off it, then as Reese left the bathroom there were a pile of notes from people who mostly thanked him for saving their lives, and others questioning him on what he did wrong and how he put everyone's life in danger.

"Patty how many dead?" Reese asked.

"All tangos dead no civilians killed in the crossfire." Patty answered back.

They were now one day out from Patch Reese decided to stay in his room for the time being.

But other people had other ideas for him Nikki decided to try her luck and see if she can get into his room, by repelling down to his balcony, Nikki decided to wait till night time to infiltrate Reese room.

Reese was getting into bed after he setup the motion sensors and the cameras then he got his helmet on so he could be protected from the thrashing at night from the nighttime terrors that he grew accustomed to over the past few months.

As Nikki descended onto Reese's room she got onto the balcony without any problems now came the hard part picking the lock of the sliding door, after a few minutes it opened and she entered the room while closing the door behind her.

Then Reese helmet beeped at him something has triggered the motion sensor, Reese then checked the camera that he placed in the corner and saw the same girl he save today standing there, and to make it worst she was taking off her clothes just leaving her underwear on.

Reese then retracted the visor on the helmet and waited then he felt her weight on the other side of the bed, then in a flash Reese then shot up like a bolt of lightning and his left hand grabbed her face and the right hand grabbed her left hand.

Nikki was in shock at how fast he was able to move she didn't even have time to make a sound, then she was able to look into Reese's eyes they were glowing even tho they were dark red they instilled a sense of fear into her.

"How many ways do i have to tell you i have a girlfriend." said Reese.

"Show me a picture." Nikki said.

"Hummph." was all Reese said as he got his scroll out and brought up the pictures of him and Yang.

Nikki then said.

"Hey isn't that the same girl from the tournament who attacked another student without provocation?" Nikki asked.

"Be careful what you say next cuse i'm not going to let you talk shit about my girlfriend." Reese said with a growl.

Nikki then thought about it then got up from the bed and got her outfit she left on the ground and left the room.

Then morning came Reese then got up and went straight to the cargo bay to look at his bike and to see if his equipment is ready to go at a moment's notice, then he saw it Patch the island where Yang lived now he had to find her as the boat docked.

Right around the same time

Yang got done with the dishes with the help of her dad Tai, then Yang got the newspaper to see what's new, sure enough there was a ship hijacking that was averted by someone on board.

Then Yang went up to her room with the coordinates and marked it on a map and it confirmed her thoughts Reese was coming here to see her.
