"I'm from out of town. Can you please give me directions to your place?"
"Really Joe, your back at it again," asked Mary May
I laughed at her "I'm glad I brought my library card, cause I'm totally checking you out"
She laughed "alright that was a good one but shouldn't you go confront John I've heard Faith's region has been taken over by the resistance and there's a huge battle going on in Jacobs region I'm guessing Jacobs going against your mate Bruce. So you probably should get outta' here and kill John."
"OK, but how about a deal once I confront John you go out with me, huh?"
"You wanna get punched in the face," She said in a joking aggressive voice
I stood up and walked towards the door and turned around to face her "Shorr - shorr" I was about to leave the spread eagle until my body turned around. I stared at Mary for a second "Hey I was wondering if you wanna come to take over the cult outpost not too far from here, what was it called... Oh yeah, the apple farm".
She stared at me for a few moments before giving her answer "I have to attend to people at the bar as much as I want to kill some peggie ass."
Disappointed I nodded and walked out. I took in the cool breeze. The sky was pitch black and I saw butch just chillin' by the sidewalk. I moved towards the dog and gave it a good ol' rub on the head. He barked in excitement before jumping up and licking my face I placed him down before heading back to the Death Wish. I jumped into the car and waited for Grace to jump in. I could hear Nick's planes engine roar by.
"You ready," I asked as I revved the engine
"Like hell, I am" answered Grace "So you wanna smash Mary May. Huh"
I could feel my face burn in embarrassment "why, do.. you, ask?" I stammered
"Just curious you know"
"Well sure whatever you say"
"So you do wanna smash?"
"Grace, stop" my voice cracked
She laughed at me. she always enjoyed it when I was embarrassed.
"So from your answer, you like her" Grace said
"If I say yes would you shut up"
"Well no promises"
"Fine, yes. Yes, I like her. We good now?"
She started to laugh again "OK, OK yes were done"
The drive was short we reached our destination in 30 minutes.
I grabbed out my radio and called Nick "Hey nick can you scout out any enemies from up there"
"Yep, I got you dep."
I waited for Nick to finish scouting out the area, moments later he told us that he was done, Grace and I immediately leaped to our feet and ran around the area I grabbed out my compound bow and shot a peggie right on the back of their head they squealed and fell over I rushed over to collect the body until I heard the alarms go off. Grace was spotted I could hear her cussing herself out, I ran over to her and grabbed out my AK -47 I sprayed at the enemies who ran at us.
Soon after waves of reinforcements came through luckily Nick bombed them. We took out the last cultist before allied troops came over to help us clean up the place.
Everyone was in joy until I heard John's voice through my radio. He said something about Falls End being taken over by peggies. So was this my final confrontation with him? Am I finally gonna go out with Mary?
The sun shone against my face I got up and stretched my lazy limbs. I dashed for the bathroom, I brushed, took a shower, and even took a dump, man that was a good dump.
I grabbed all the equipment I needed for my little bro's out with Hurk. I went over to the bedroom to stare at faith I sat down at the floor and stared at her innocent face when she slept her hair was covering her face but she still looked, innocent, beautiful, and kinda goofy. I ended up smiling at her I reached out and swiped her hair upwards exposing her face. Dunno why but I felt like my sexual hormones were all excited.
"Fuck, I'm a pedo" I whispered to myself I heard a whimper before I saw her open her Ocean blue eyes she lept back before staring at me. I quickly broke the silence by telling her I was going to go fishing with Hurk. She still stared at me before sinking into bed again.
"Well goodbye" I yapped to myself
I grunted as I climbed up the mountain where Jacob was sitting and sniping. But luckily I sneaked my way round' him. He was clueless. I snuck up behind him dropped him, he let out a moan before I punched his face knocking him out for a moment I threw him onto a rock he coughed and stared at me talking but I didn't care with what he was saying if I didn't have any priorities I would kill him right now but I promised the boys I would arrest him and not kill, Joe told me to show some mercy.
But I've never heard the word. I pulled out the cuffs and attached them to Jacob he didn't hesitate he took his punishment but before he did whimpered "Weak. So weak. I. Am weak." I carried him down the mountain I remembered Tammy told me to kill him but unfortunately I won't be doing that instead I'm taking him down to the Hope county prison where he'll hopefully spend the rest of his life there.
I loaded him into the copter' and started it the engine whistled before we took off. My mind felt broken I killed Eli. I killed him without any remorse I felt weak but that is the past and Jacob said some shit about sacrifice to become stronger. I scrubbed my beard and looked at my clothes they were soaked in blood and sweat. "Shit probably should head to the nearest camp to change".
I eventually came across one of the outposts I've taken over I landed and immediately bought ammo and changed into more comfortable clothes. I grabbed some black jeans, a white Boomer shirt, and some black boots.
Once I finished I climbed back onto the helicopter to find Jacob fast asleep I kinda felt bad for him he was probably manipulated by the father when he came back from war scared from what he experienced, broken, and probably was open and weak for the father to get inside his head. But that doesn't make up for his misdeeds. No. Never. If Jacob ever wants to repent his bad deeds he should expose the father's secrets. But I already know that's not happening.
Somehow the thought, oh me getting down with Mary gave me a sense of adrenaline. But then I remembered that she was back at Falls End, the place where the final confrontation would be. I found an ATV and hopped on, Grace entered a couple of moments later.
I drove full speed to Falls End just before we reached the destination I jumped out of the ATV and ran for the church. I was standing face to face with the door I took a deep breath and turned the doorknob before I could do anything an assault rifle slammed against my head.
I reached my destination and I saw Hurk sitting down on a chair. "Hurkie. What's up"
"Amigo so you finally showed up" He looked a bit intoxicated "look I already caught a fiss" his voice was all slurred and hard to understand.
"Were you drinking. Because you sure are acting drunk."
"Yes and..." He raised an eyebrow "Haven't you seen the 3 rules to join Hurks gate"
"OK fine lets just fish," I said exhausted already
I grabbed a rod and found a seat. Just I did it Hurk jumped and started to yank at his rod he opposed the fishes movement and slowly dragged the fish to him and before I knew it the salmon leaped out, it whipped him on the face before calming down enough to pick up.
About thirty minutes had passed Hurk and I combined caught about 10 fish I caught 3 and he caught 7 who knew an intoxicated idiot could be that good at fishing.
I heard a crackle from my walkie-talkie. I picked it up and could hear loud gunshots.
"Gimme' thirty minutes and then the father will be vulnerable, all I need to do is arrest John and we will be on our way to finally arrest that wanka" The talkie cut off before I could say anything.
It was Joe. So that dumb shit can finally stop flirting and actually do some work. This is a first.
"Hurk I'm headed off. Falls End is nearly freed from John's grasp let's go help out, ay?" The man just grunted before getting up and walking to the car, he got in and accepted my request. And before long we headed out.
