False Starts
A
moment later, the side door opened and a skinny woman walked in. She was
dressed in high heels, red fishnet stockings, a matching red miniskirt, and
black halter top.
“Sorry,
ma’am,” Lyden approached her, “I’m afraid you’re in the wrong car.”
“No,
Ambassador Snow, I am not,” the woman said in a firm tone. Every ounce of this
woman exuded sexuality, and her voice dripped with it. That is, until she
turned to face the rest of the car. Her posture changed as she stood
straighter, shoulders back, and a look of serious command appeared on her
pretty face. Eldon saw that her eyes were a striking shade of green. Shoulder
length dark brown hair framed a cherubic face. Her body thrummed with an energy
that was almost palpable. Despite himself, Eldon felt his mouth start to drool.
What
was wrong with him? He had the world’s hottest girlfriend next to him, and here
he was drooling over a stranger. He knew she was no longer the jealous goddess
she once was, but that was no reason to act like this.
“Thanks,
babe, but you’re the best boyfriend I could hope for,” Gloria whispered into
his ear. “There’s something not quite right about her, though. I can’t hear her
thoughts, and there is something I can’t put my finger on. She’s not a vampire
or anything as far as I can tell, but she doesn’t appear to be alive either.”
“I
can’t hear her heartbeat,” Shlee whispered.
Eldon
realized the stranger was looking right at them. “You’re right. I’m not human.
What I am is classified. You can call me Sonia. I report directly to the
President, and I am the agent you were sent to meet up with.” Her tone was no-nonsense,
and the withering look she gave Eldon helped his mouth dry up. She’d changed
from a sex kitten into all business, somehow without changing her clothes.
Eldon
wished he had a weapon to hand. It wasn’t that he mistrusted this woman, not
exactly, but there was something about her that put his teeth on edge. She was
brisk and treated him like scum. He didn’t expect everyone to like him just
because, but he’d never been treated like this by someone who didn’t know him.
“Sorry
about the misunderstanding,” Lyden spoke up, taking the woman’s gaze from
Eldon. “You just don’t, um... excuse me, but you don’t look like a typical
Secret Service Agent.”
“I’m
not,” Sonia stated and didn’t add any more.
Eldon
saw his dad grimace before putting on his political face. “Would you mind
showing us some form of credentials? It never pays to not be careful.”
“Besides
the fact that your magical car arrived to pick me up and let me come in?” Sonia
asked. “You might want to answer your phone.”
Lyden’s
eyebrows drew together, but he pulled out his phone. It wasn’t ringing. Eldon
jumped as his phone went off. Everyone turned to him and Sonia frowned.
“Umm,
I’ll just—” Eldon cut himself off as he looked at the caller ID. It was
blocked. “Hello?” he asked after swiping his thumb across the screen to answer.
“Hey
handsome,” a cheerful voice he instantly recognized said. “I heard you were
healed and out of the hospital. I can’t tell you how distraught I was after
that crash.”
“How
did you get my number?” Eldon couldn’t stop the question before it exited his
lips.
“Gloria
gave it to me. Besides, even if she hadn’t I am the President of the United
States. It’s not like I couldn’t just look it up.” Martha had a point, and
Eldon felt like a fool for even asking. He was tired of feeling the fool today,
and had a terrible feeling it wouldn’t be the last.
Eldon
glanced at his girlfriend who gave him a wicked grin. “I didn’t think you’d
mind.”
He
couldn’t help but return her grin. She was too beautiful to be upset with,
anyway.
“You
still there?” Martha’s voice sounded from the phone and he pressed it to his
ear again.
“Yeah,
sorry. Um, now’s not the best time.” Glancing around the car, he saw everyone
looking at him, most with unhappy expressions. Only Gloria was smiling. His
father looked disappointed with him.
“I
know. Unfortunately, this wasn’t a social call. Sonia reports directly to me.
You can trust her without reservation.”
“It’s
Martha, er… The President.” He told everyone, and the frowns disappeared. All
except Sonia’s calm demeanor. “She says that we can trust her.”
“Let
me guess,” Martha spoke again, “Sonia is being secretive? I shouldn’t be
surprised. It’s in her programming. Tell you what, put your phone on speaker
and hold it up.”
“Okay…”
Eldon didn’t understand what was going on, but did as he was told.
Sonia
glanced at the phone and grimaced anew. “I hate when she does this.”
A
moment later, a series of high pitched whines and screeches emanated from his
speaker.
Shlee
covered her sensitive years. “Jeez, that’s worse than dial-up!”
Sonia’s
eyes glazed over for a moment, and when the sound stopped, the agent smiled.
Eldon took the phone off speaker and pressed it to his ear again. “There. That
should loosen her up around you.”
“What
did you do?” Eldon asked.
“She
tends to get a bit uptight about some things,” Martha responded. “I just gave
everyone in that car top secret clearance concerning her. She should be a
little easier to deal with. Well, I’d better go. The Japanese ambassador is due
here any minute, and we’re going to discuss the Lydonese. Take care handsome.”
The
phone clicked before he could think of anything to say. What was going on?
“Well,
it seems I’m to trust you with all my secrets.” Sonia’s voice took on that
smoky quality again that made Eldon’s pants tighten even more. As if his
perma-hardon weren’t bad enough. “As I mentioned before, my name is Sonia,
which stands for Synthetic Operational Nocturnal Infiltration Android. I was
originally designed as a sex-bot, but have received a few upgrades. My main
duties are infiltration and espionage.”
“So,
you’re a true undercover spy?” Eldon
had to ask.
“Son!”
Lyden snapped, and Eldon felt his cheeks heat in embarrassment. Why did he have
to ask that out loud? Despite Gloria’s assurance that his body could handle his
extended erection, he was beginning to think his blood was a little too thin
and not enough was reaching his brain. He really wasn’t thinking too clearly.
He wanted to blame Mandy’s presence, but he was the one that opened his mouth.
“It’s
all right, Ambassador Snow. I’ve heard much worse from some of those I work
with. That certainly wasn’t the first time I’ve heard that comment.” Sonia said
in a sweet voice. She turned to face Eldon again, and while her voice was still
silky smooth, he sensed a solidity underneath it that meant business. “While my
design might be that of a sex-bot, let me assure you that I don’t just spread
my legs for anyone.”
“I’m
sorry. I shouldn’t have said that. I don’t know what I was thinking,” Eldon
apologized.
“It’s
not your fault,” she assured him. “When I’m relaxed, my synthetic body gives
off strong pheromones. They affect everyone differently. Sometimes it helps
when I’m working. Judging by the bulge in your pants, I understand where your
comment came from.”
Ouch!! He knew he
deserved that comment, but his boner wasn’t his fault, or entirely due to her.
“I’m
afraid that that wasn’t caused by you,” Gloria came to his rescue. “It seems to
be a side effect of his healing earlier today.”
“You
mean something went wrong?” Lyden asked and clutched tighter at the golden statue.
“Is he all right?”
The
fear in his father’s voice tore at him, even while his cheeks burned hotter.
“Don’t worry about it, Dad.”
Lyden
opened his mouth, but before he could ask anything, Shlee piped up. “What I
want to know is what powers you? Are you nuclear, or battery powered? How
strong is your processor? Are you using solid state memory, or the experimental
crystal memory? I’m assuming you’re using the latest artificial intelligence
software, or are you programmed with something top secret by the government?”
Everyone stopped and stared at the reporter. “What? I want to know. I promise
not to report on any of it, but the geek in me is dying to know what makes her
tick.”
“I
don’t think now is the time,” Mandy said as she folded her four arms across her
chest. “The Orange Bubble wants to know where we’re heading. Where are Becky,
Shelly, and Jessica being held?”
“I
wish there was time for a quick fuck. Eldon’s cock looked good in that
hospital.” Shlee froze as she realized what she’d just said. She turned to
glare at Mandy, then at Eldon, as though it were his fault. She turned and
stomped away. Even as big as the interior of the car was, she couldn’t go far,
and with all the bodies inside, it was getting a bit cramped.
Lyden
got up and approached his son. Eldon wished he could turn and walk away, to
find some corner to hide in, but knew it was hopeless.
“Shlee
caught you sleeping, huh?” Lyden shook his head about Shlee’s lie earlier.
Eldon couldn’t tell if his dad was teasing him, or berating him. “I need to
know what’s going on with you, Son.”
Eldon
glanced at the statue of Areth still clutched in his father’s hands. She’d
given up everything for him. He still felt guilty for it, and right at that
moment didn’t want to talk to his hero father.
“I’m
fine, Dad. Just trying to get used to things.” He couldn’t meet his father’s
eyes as he spoke.
“And,
um… down there?”
Eldon
didn’t think it was possible to grow more embarrassed. His face was getting
sore from being constantly red. He couldn’t help the fact that he was still
stiff, but having his dad point it out was mortifying. He wanted to say it was
fine also, but knew he couldn’t get the lie out with Mandy in the car. “I don’t
want to talk about it. You can rely on me to save my sister, Becky, and
Jessica. That’s what’s most important right now.”
“It
is important, but your health is important to me also. I love you Son, and if
something is wrong…” he trailed off and took a step away, his eyes going wide.
“What?”
Eldon was torn between hoping his dad would drop the subject, and concerned
about the look on Lyden’s face. “What’s wrong?”
“You’re
glowing,” Lyden said in an awed tone. “You’re glowing golden. I’ve noticed it
for a while, but it just got stronger.”
Eldon
looked down at his body, but couldn’t tell what his father was getting at. “No
I’m not. I’m normal.”
“It’s
the same glow as Areth’s” Gloria stated. “Only a bit brighter.”
Sonia
looked him up and down and shook her head. “Your body is in perfect health. I
don’t see any glow, either. I can see between the ultraviolet to infrared
frequencies, and your appearance is normal on all spectrums. You don’t even
show the standard amount of skin damage from exposure to sunlight I normally
see in someone your age. I don’t see a glow.”
“I
don’t see any glow, either,” Shlee added. Eldon suspected she heard Sonia
explaining her abilities, and decided to rejoin them. She really was a geek.
“I
see it,” Brooke offered.
“So
do I,” Brock stated.
“Interesting,”
Mandy said and stroked her chin. “Some of us can see it, while others can’t. It
can’t be a family trait, as Brooke and Gloria aren’t related to you. Gender
doesn’t seem to play a role in it… And you say you don’t see it?”
“I
look normal,” Eldon said, wishing more and more he could find a hole and hide
for the rest of his life in it.
“No,
you’re definitely glowing,” Gloria said. She started to look around him and
shook her head. “Someone turn off the lights.”
The
car must have been listening, as all light vanished inside the car. Curtains
were closed over the windows, and Eldon couldn’t see a thing.
“I
can barely see,” Shlee commented, “and I have superior night vision. I still
don’t see a glow.”
“I
can still see you clearly,” Lyden said. Eldon thought he heard a smile in his
dad’s voice.
“As
can I,” Gloria stated. “Notice how the glow doesn’t reflect off anything else?
I wonder… How bright is he to you, Mr. Snow?”
“Call
me Lyden,” he responded. “Almost bright enough to hurt looking at in this
dark.”
“Same
here,” Gloria stated. “Brock, Brooke? How about you?”
“He’s
pretty bright, but not bad enough that it hurts my eyes,” Brooke offered.
“Really?”
Brock stated. Eldon heard his mechanical legs moved him closer, but still
couldn’t see. “I can see him clearly, but I don’t think he’s that bright.”
Eldon
wished he’d chosen a different phrasing to that statement. That wording made
Eldon feel like an idiot.
“Ouch!”
Mandy cursed. “Watch where you’re going!”
“Sorry.
It’s so dark in here, all I can see is my brother.” Brock apologized.
The
lights came back on, and Eldon had to squint in the sudden brilliance. They
were all still staring at him.
“I’m
not a piece of meat,” Eldon groused. “You can stop staring at me now.”
“At
least we’re not talking about your beautiful cock,” Shlee laughed, then slapped
her hand over her mouth. She stormed to the front of the car, stomping with
each step. “I can’t wait to get out of this car where my thoughts can be my
own! You all are going to think I’m some cock crazed slut, when it’s just been a
few days since anyone has touched me like that. I—” She slapped her hands over
her mouth again, and the rest was too muffled to hear.
Eldon
felt bad, but he was relieved that the attention was taken off him for a
moment.
“Any
idea what’s causing it? The glow, I mean,” Brooke asked the car in general.
Eldon
saw Gloria give them all a look, and noticed her jaws clench. She didn’t look
happy, and that worried him more than anything else.
“Whatever
it is, I doubt it’s harmful,” Brooke replied to her own question. “Maybe it has
something to do with how well we knew Areth before she healed you, Eldon. It
might be some left over magic from that.”
Eldon
hoped that was true, but a glance at Gloria ruined that thought. Gloria had
known Areth, but not well, yet she claimed he had an intense glow. As far as he
knew, Brock had known Areth a little, so that fit there. But Mandy had known
Areth a little as well, and she hadn’t said she could see a glow.
“Maybe,
something like that,” Eldon said, though he doubted it. “Whether or not I glow,
it’s not the most important thing right now.”
“Unless
some sniper sees you and decides you make an easy target,” Lyden stated.
Eldon
met his dad’s gray eyes for a moment as he felt his resolve firm. “If you think
for one moment that I’m going to sit this fight out, you’re wrong. The Knights
have my sister, and there’s not a chance in hell I’m going to let them get away
with that.”
“No
one is asking you to sit this out,” Brooke stepped in and placed a hand on her
husband’s shoulder. “We’re just concerned about going into battle without
understanding what’s going on.”
He
understood that well enough. Nothing was more dangerous than going into battle
with missing knowledge. It didn’t mean he was willing to sit this out, however.
“I
can’t be hurt, remember?” He said and couldn’t stop himself from glancing at
Areth’s statue. “The second my body gets any damage, I heal back to perfect.”
“We
don’t know that for certain,” Lyden cautioned. “It could be that there is a
moment between the damage and your body healing. If that moment is large
enough, you could die. We’ve almost lost you twice recently, as it is.”
Eldon
thought back to when he’d punched the wall. His hand had hurt for a moment. Later,
Gloria had slapped him, and that pain had lasted a bit longer. His father could
be right. What would happen if his head were chopped off, or a bullet
penetrated his brain? Could he survive that?
It
didn’t matter. He had to save his sister. “I’m going,” he said in a tone that
left no argument. His father opened his mouth to reply, and Eldon just raised
one eyebrow. It was a look he’d learned from his mother. She may act like a
slave before him, but when she gave Lyden Snow that look, he listened. After a
moment, Lyden nodded and walked over to the fountain.
They
spent the next several minutes hashing out their plan of attack with Sonia’s
help. She had the layout of the place they were preparing to infiltrate, and
was able to pull up a holographic display.
“We’re
about fifteen minutes away,” Lyden said as he glanced out the window. “Does
everyone know what they need to do?”
“We’ve
been over the plan numerous times, dear,” Brooke said from her spot on the
fountain. Brock was next to her in his mechanical legs. “I still think you need
to stay back here. You’re not…” Brooke looked ashamed for a moment before
forcing the words out. “You’re not the Generator anymore, and can’t fight them.
If you die, they win.”
Lyden’s
face grew angry. Eldon had seen his father angry more today than any other time
in his past. Losing Areth, and having his family kidnapped was taking its toll
on his dad. It was taking a toll on all of them.
“They
have my daughter and one of my wives, not to mention Shelly’s girlfriend,”
Lyden said with a voice full of anger, sorrow, rage, and determination. “They’ve
gone too far this time. They will pay. I won’t lose anyone else!”
“I
understand how you feel,” Mandy spoke up. “But the world can’t lose you, Mr.
Snow. You’re too important to the people of the Shadow World.”
“They
can go to hell for all I care,” Lyden spat. He walked over to the fountain near
Brooke and picked up Areth’s statue. Tears formed in his eyes as he spoke. “I
won’t lose anyone else. I lost Lisa years ago to them, and thought I’d bloodied
their nose enough to teach them a lesson. Their actions recently have shown
that they can’t be taught. They are a cancer of hatred in the world. For too
long, we have been content to let them grow, thinking they were ineffective.
This last attack only means one thing. War. It is not a war I am willing to
lose. I will not lose anyone else! No one! Am I clear?”
The
car was silent for a moment, before Eldon spoke up. “You won’t dad. I’ll make
sure to bring them all home. I won’t let you down. But that’s no reason for you
to join the fight. Stay here. Coordinate from here. Let us be your hands and
eyes. You can’t run the fight from the middle of it.”
“When
the Outsiders threatened our existence, I didn’t stay back then,” Lyden faced
his son. Eldon kept his father’s gaze. “I went out and killed them. I fought. I
won’t stay behind this time, either.”
“That
was different,” Eldon held his ground. “You had your powers then. You don’t
now. I understand how you feel, Dad. They have my sister, my step-mom, and
Jessica. If even one hair on their head is hurt, I’ll destroy them all myself.”
“How
will you do that?” Lyden demanded. “You can’t change anymore. You’re locked
into that one form.”
That
hurt him more than he would admit. At least his dad wasn’t insisting on him
staying behind this time.
“Because
I had a great man teach me the importance of fighting for the right reasons
from the time I was a little kid,” Eldon grinned. “Because I have trained for
this my whole life. My form isn’t what’s important. What you helped teach me
is.”
Eldon’s
words seemed to get through to his father, and he bowed his head. He cradled
the statue in his hands and wept. “I won’t lose anyone else, Son. You hear me?
Don’t you dare die out there. None of you can. I… I can’t lose anyone else. I
can’t.”
Brooke
folded him into her arms and held her husband. He noticed for the first time
that his dad was getting old. Brooke looked like she was still in her
mid-twenties, though she was much older. Next to her, Lyden looked ancient with
the wrinkles around his eyes and the gray in his hair.
Sonia
turned to face the other agent. The man had remained silent almost the whole
time, to the point where Eldon had forgotten he was in the car. “All of our
forces are ready to move on your word, Commander. Just give the order.”
“As
soon as this car stops, we move,” Sonia responded, then turned to face the rest
of the car. “The President has authorized full lethal force. We will act as the
vanguard. Our main mission is to rescue the hostages. Once they’re clear, a
tactical missile strike will hit the base.” She walked over to Lyden and handed
him a screen. “Ambassador Snow, use this to see through my eyes. The President
will also be watching. If you need to issue any commands, speak into it and we
will hear. The rest of you, take these ear pieces. I know some of you prefer to
use swords, but there will be a small team ready with pistols and rifles when
we stop.”
“What
kind of resistance can we expect?” Brooke asked as she hefted her two watery blue
blades, checking their balance.
“As
long as we catch them by surprise, it’ll be slight. The base is well fortified,
and well manned. They shouldn’t know we know where they are. We will get in as
quiet as possible, and get out. If we’re lucky, they won’t know we were there
until the missiles are striking,” the tactical agent spoke up.
“I
still don’t agree with wiping them out,” Brooke stated. “We might be making
martyrs out of them. I—”
“Enough!”
Lyden snapped. “I am done having my family targeted and kidnapped. The only
reason I didn’t retaliate against Varun when he kidnapped you last time is
because the consequences of taking out a Pillar was too great. No one worth
their spit will miss these bastards. They will pay, and everyone will know not
to mess with my family. I understand your concerns, my love, but my mind is made
up on this. Tonight, the Paladonic Knights will be destroyed.”
“The
President is in agreement,” Sonia said.
“I
agree they need to be stopped,” Mandy spoke up, “but I’m glad my dad isn’t here
to see this.”
They
were silent for a moment. Lyden was the first to break it. “He was a good man,
Mandy, and I considered him a friend. We had our differences at first, but he
proved to be a good person at heart. I was sorry when he passed away.”
“That’s
part of my point,” Brooke spoke up. “Emmet was a good person, and he was once a
Knight. How many good people are we going to kill tonight?”
“Enough
that no other good people will ever think of joining the Knights,” Lyden spoke
in a tone as hard as granite.
The
Orange Bubble stopped, ending any further arguments. The tactically clad agent
opened the door and stepped out. A moment later, he waved the rest of them to
follow. Only Lyden stayed behind.
The
night sky was filled with stars. They were in a wooded mountainous area, parked
on the side of a hill. They wound their way through the trees, until they came
across three men, all dressed in tactical gear.
They
were shown to a foam-lined crate, filled with various weaponry.
“Grab
what you need,” Sonia’s voice sounded in Eldon’s earpiece, though he noticed
her lips didn’t move. Being an android, she could probably transmit her voice
directly to them.
Eldon
saw everyone else move to the crate, and he followed suit. He noticed a wide
array of weaponry. There was enough here to start a small revolution in a third
world country. He grabbed a short sword, strapped it to his back, then picked
up a pistol with its holster and placed it on his right hip. He rooted around
and found some spare clips, then grabbed an assault rifle.
He
was weighed down with all the weaponry, but felt it was better to go in ready,
than wish he had it when he needed it.
“Just
over this rise is their base,” Sonia’s voice sounded in his ear again. “If
we’re all ready, we can move out. I’ll send the signal to launch the missiles
as soon as we’re clear with the hostages.”
“Be careful out there,” Lyden’s voice sounded
next. “Bring them home safe.”
They
all nodded.
They
all knew how to move in silence, except for Brock. There was no helping the
sound of his mechanical legs as they moved through the forest.
Eldon’s
first glance at the Paladonic Knight’s fortress made him worry. It was
surrounded by a wall that Sonia’s information said was forty feet tall. Gun
turrets were mounted every fifteen feet. There were two main entrances, one on
each side, each manned by four guards carrying automatic rifles loaded with
silver bullets. There was no way to get in or out without being seen by dozens
of security cameras.
This
was the largest group Eldon had ever worked with, but it seemed tiny compared
to what they were up against. Luckily, Sonia’s intelligence showed a secret
entrance used by the highest leadership when they didn’t want their comings and
goings noticed.
They
circled wide around the front gate, staying to the shadows. Their entrance was
located near a rock outcropping, and disguised as a giant boulder. When Sonia
pressed against it, it lifted with ease, revealing a ladder down into a dark
hole.
One
by one, they dropped down in, except for Brock. His mechanical legs were too
wide to fit in the hole, so he remained behind to guard their retreat along
with the other agents. He held an automatic rifle in his hands as he hunkered
down in his transportation.
At
the bottom of the ladder was a dimly lit tunnel leading in the direction of the
base. Brook led the way, her blue blades out and glimmering with a soft light
of their own. Eldon’s heart hammered in his ears as he strained to hear any
noise beyond their own breathing and soft footfalls.
Brooke’s
gasp sounded loud in the silence as she stopped. “Something is very wrong,” she
said and held up her blades. They were still blue, but no longer glowing with
their own light.
“Who
gave that command?” Sonia sounded angry in his ear a moment later. She glanced
around at them with eyes wide. She claimed to be an android, but her look was
filled with fear. Can an android feel fear?
“You
did, commander,” came a response in his ear from one of the other agents
outside.
“Someone
gave the command to launch the missiles. We’ve been compromised.” Sonia’s lips
moved as she spoke this time, and there was no mistaking the fear in her voice.
Before
anyone could respond, the ground shuddered and dust filtered down from the
ceiling. The missiles were already striking the ground, killing anyone above
them.
