An Unforgotten Past ~ Chapter 7
A Young Girl returns from being the worlds top assassin desperately trying to forget the horrors of her past...........and the heartache.
ARIANA'S POV:
I literally walked into school with a spring in my step, feeling like my heart would burst with joy. Even and her cronies with their usual sneers couldn't bring me down. I was so happy and so in love I felt like I could take on the world! I had Max's love and that meant everything to me.
MAX'S POV:
I liked suddenly dry lips and spoke calmly to my superior: " I thought she was dead Sir?" He answered with a non-commital grunt; "So did we but one of our chief scientists managed to reactivate a prototype tracking device we implanted. Now enough questions I need you to suit up and arm yourself, remember who you're up against."
"Yes Sir." Fuck. I had no idea what I was going to do. I could go with them and try and capture her, or I could try to stop them. Hmmmm......ok this was bad! If I helped them, Ariana would hate me, and probably kill me; if I helped Ariana they will kill us both......F*ck.
ARIANA'S POV:
We all filed into the hall for morning assembly. Everyone kept giving me strange looks. I guess after I got back I didn't have many reasons to be happy with everything I was feeling inside. I sat down and pretended to listen to the morning announcements, when I was really reliving last night in my mind. Every touch, every kiss was burned into my memory as the greatest night of my life. And no-one could take that away from me.
MAX'S POV:
I swallowed, my M-16 felt heavier than normal in my hands, and my palms felt sweaty. This was going to hurt.
ARIANA'S POV:
The windows exploded in a deadly spray of glass as I was thrown to the floor by the force of the explosion. In an instant I was back on my feet my training kicking in as I evaluated the threat level. There were 42 soldiers in all, I smiled my record was 53 soldiers in 67 minutes. Most of them were bare faced though several of them wore black balaclavas covering most of their faces. They hefted modified M-16's in their hands, then it clicked the modifications on the M-16's weren't meant for just shooting they had tranquilizing darts in the second barrell. My face paled; it was a recruitment mission, the Agency was here for more recruits.
MAX'S POV:
There she was: startled and beautiful. The very image of stunning perfection. Guilt twisted in my gut; what was I doing? Was I really going to give up the girl of my dreams to save myself from the torture that I would suffer at their hands otherwise?
While I waged a silent war with myself, the Commander as he called himself began issuing orders;
" Spread out! I want her found! remember to tranq all potentials and dispose of anyone trying to alert the authorities."
I knew I only had a few minutes before they spotted her and they started shooting. Before I could get to her one of the newer recruits grabbed her by the hair and yelled loudly; "I got her!" it was the stupidest thing he could've done. Ariana spun around and kicked him square in the groin and spun around to knock him out with a roundhouse kick to the face as soon as he let go of her hair. The next agent came at her with his rifle raised she picked up a chair and threw it at him. As he ducked to avoid it she flew at him and knocked him out with a kick to the head. The next agent came at her from behind she spun around and kicked him square in the chest sending him reeling. She had knocked out a 3rd agent and was just subduing her fourth when a sharp scream rang out and she stopped suddenly to look up. The Commander was holding one of her classmates, the really skinny one who wore too much make-up. She was struggling wildly and weeping until he pressed the end of his gun under her chin.
Ariana stopped immediately but didn't let go of the recruit. The Commander took in her disheveled appearance with an insulting leer.
She didn't appear unnerved at all, it was one of the things the commander had always hated about her, the fact that he couldn't frighten her like he did everyone else. A strangled noise brought me out of my reverie, the Commander had tightened his grip around the girl's neck in frustration, I could see Ariana desperately wanted to beat him to a pulp, but wouldn't risk it. This wasn't going to be easy.
ARIANA'S POV:
My heart, beat wildly in my chest as Commander's hand tightened around Ashlee's neck. As much as i hated the spoilt brat she didn't deserve to die. I dropped the agent to my feet, but not before i knocked him out, no way was I letting him play dead and then attack me.
I looked him square in the eyes and said as calmly as i could:
"What do you want?"
He smirked before replying;
"What do you think? Agent you have disobeyed all High Priority Protocol and evaded capture. Normally these breaches would merit execution, but your skills are too rare to waste. So you have a choice, come back peacefully, or in chains." His eyes narrowed to a dangerous looking frown, expecting me to grovel and plead for mercy.
I snorted;
"When hell freezes over." I said sweetly, with a fake smile. He sighed and shook his head.
"I would have thought that you would want to be re-united with your estranged lover?" He said with a knowing look in his eyes, i blanched with fright, Did he know?
"Agent Kennard is dead, he died over 4 months ago, you told me that" I said my voice rising. He shook his head and asked.
"You shouldn't believe everything you hear my dear, what if I were to tell you that not only is your lover alive, but he lead us to your exact location?" My mouth dropped open in shock, before I closed it quickly.
"Max is dead, and even if he were alive he would never betray me or doing anything to hurt me. Unlike you."
"What we did was for the good of the Agency, the two of you were jeprodising the entire operation."
"Max was the only thing that kept me sane! I may have been good at what i did , but that doesn't mean i loved it like you did!" I was shouting now, furious that he would even insinuate that Max would have anything to do with them anymore. I realized that Max hadn't actually explained what he was doing here , but I'm sure it isn't anything evil or involving the Agency.
"Ah but you see Agent you were the best, no-one else was as cold-hearted or as efficient. And for your information we know you've been hiding here for the past 2 months. We were just waiting for the right moment to strike. "I snorted again;
"If you had really known I was here you would have sent your best Agent to kill or capture me." I said confidently.
MAX'S POV:
I didn't like where this was going. I didn't trust the Commander one bit, and i was getting increasingly nervous about how this was going to end. I felt all of my resolve crumble as the Commander said softly;
"Oh but I did." He smirked evilly and before I could stop him, whipped the black mask from my face.
Soz for the Wait!
