Always (Kotlc Spy Au)

Chapter 26

Sophie's pov

I breathed in and out, relax Sophie concentrate.

This is what you were created to do. Destroy the lodestar Intinitive. Everyone is counting on you.

They all said I was going to go down in history. The greatest black swan agent. Yet I was terrified.

Im only 16.

And I don't want to die.

My mind flashed to the beautiful conversation I had yesterday with Keefe.

"Sophie?" "Sophie!" A voice said,, snapping me out of my thoughts. I turned to see Sandor trying to get my attention. I couldn't bare to look at all the agents who were going to sacrifice themselves. I couldn't bare to see all my friends, knowing the false reality that they were most likely going to die aswell.

I turned to Sandor and noticed Ro was also there great. So were all the colective. Sandor spoke, "we are all here to protect you and get you to the lodestar so you can do your thing, got it?"

I nodded, not wanting to be reminded about how people would most likely take bullets for me.

We all got out of the car. There was over 50 of us and we broke into the base.

It wasn't easy and it took a full, 10 minutes but Dex ended up hacking into the system to open the door.

The next thing I saw was a full on ambush, the neverseen knew we were coming but how?

Everything about it said, RETREAT! TURN BACK! DO YOU HAVE A DEATH WISH??

I didn't have time to think. People started fighting and it was an all out war.

I fought aswell only making sure to badly injure instead of kill. I tried to find my friends but couldn't.

I was suddenly hit in the head. I could tell it was hard. Thank goodness for my high pain tolerance. I still fell to the floor.

Just then I heard the person who did this load a gun. I heard the click and I froze.

Then they pulled the trigger. I closed my eyes, already apologizing to those I let down. Then I heard a grunt behind me.

I saw the person who nearly shot me on the floor. They were most likely dead. But where did the bullet go?

I looked down to see Sandor. The lights went out of his eyes. He was gone. I wanted to cry. I wanted to sit there in shock. But this is what they trained me for. I couldn't have emotion.

I didn't even have time to mourn I instead ran as fast as possible to where they told me to head to where the lodestar was. A double agent loyal to us told us the exact spot. I couldn't bare to see all the bodies of the fallen. I instead turned my attention to Mr. Forkle and Brant fighting.

Brant got the uperhand. I watched Mr. Forkle get stabbed. Impaled. I broke down. I couldn't help it. They said for me to be like an ice queen, no emotion, no tears. They always taught me to not make friends and that it only makes it worse in the business.  But I still let my emotions get the best of me.

I screamed at Brant, "FIRST YOU KILLED JOLLIE NOW MR. FORKLE? HOW COULD YOU, JOLLIE LOVED YOU."

He turned to me and for the first time I saw saddness in his eyes. Regret.

He shook his head backing away, "n-no sshe d-didn't love me. She tried to kill me before. B-but." He looked like a psychopath. It gave me JD vibes. Luke Castellon after he fought off Kronos vibes.

I decided to start reciting lines from Jollie's diary. With tears running down my face.

Brant screamed a hurtful, sorrowful scream then looked at Mr. Forkle his expression froze. He was petrified. He wouldn't move. Just then broken rocks fell on his head. His body was nowhere to be seen. I couldn't tell if he was dead or not but I ran.
