Rio Veracruz has gotten himself into some serious crap. He's gotten captured by the enemy.

It's up to you to rescue him and try to get you both out alive.

Swearing and violence.

........................

That stupid fool! You scream, throwing the lamp across the room and it smashes against the wall, breaking.

Stupid Rio! What the hell was that idiot thinking? You march into the bedroom and over to the closet, throwing open the door and turning on the light.

You step inside and start searching for everything that you'll need to go and rescue that sorry sack of shit.

Once everything is assembled, you grab your phone and head out, hoping that you'll be able to get Rio Veracruz out of that forified fortress.

.....................

You reach the place where Rio's being held. You have to discover a way to cut the power so that you can sneak in, undetected.

That's going to be the easy part. The tough part will be trying to sneak back out, without anybody spotting you two.

You swear softly as you huddle next to a large cargo truck. If Rio can hotwire this beast, this might be your escape. You'd caught a ride with some nosy trucker that had been heading this direction.

He started asking too many damn questions and you finally had to knock the asshole unconscious just to get some damn peace and quiet

You stopped his truck outside a truck stop, about five miles away and just went those five miles on foot. You'd be feeling that later on.

Rio had damn well better appreciate all this crap you're going through just to break him on I'd this place. You allow yourself to briefly wonder if he's... okay. You close your eyes momentarily, conjuring up his ruggedly handsome face.

Then... it hits you. You pull out your phone and type in where they're power source is coming from and once you're in... it's lights out.

.....................

You're in. Barely. These people are too damn smart. They know how to get things up and running. And quickly.

You'd discovered that Rio was being held down in the basement, heavily guarded. By three big brutes, too. Goody.

You have something to take out at least two of them. But you'll still have to battle whoever stays behind to continue guarding your asshole boyfriend.

You take the smoke bombs out if your backpack and pull the pins, rolling them in the opposite direction of where Rio's being held.

As you figured, two of the guards take off in the direction of where you rolled the smoke bombs.

You get your tazer ready so you can electrocute the last brute and hopefully break out Rio before those other two get back.

You put the tazer on the highest setting and slowly creep up behind him. Once you're within reach, you hit the on button and the brute cries out in pain as the strong electric currents run through his body.

He eventually falls with a loud thud to the stone floor and you swiftly grab the wire cutters out of your bag and cut the lock on the cell door.

Rio is lying there. And he looks... horrible. He must have been... beaten. Your stomach rolls and lurches. You rush over to him, grabbing his arm and slinging it over your shoulder.

Rio groans loudly in pain and you try to shush him. He sees you, really sees you and he tries to smile.

"Y/N, you.. came. Thank God."

"Of course I came, you big dumb idiot," you snap. "I'd never forgive myself if I just left you here to...you know. We need to go. Are you able to come along?"

"D-Don't worry about...me, chica. Let's just... get the hell out of here."

You try to hustle out as quickly as possible. Luckily, you'd discovered some underground tunnels. That's your ticket to freedom.

.....................

You've made it out to the beast. Not easily. You had to shoot several men before you finally made it out.

Rio is more alert and is working on hotwiring the beast. Eureka! He's succeeded! You have him move to the passenger seat and you put the petal to the metal and get the hell out of dodge.

Bullets are flying all around and strike the sides and the back of the truck, but you manage to still get away. Thank God.

....................

Rio has passed out and you're trying not to freak out. You stop on a deserted, dark road and rummage around in the back of the truck for medical supplies.

Surprisingly you discover a well equipped first aid kit and get to work on patching up Rio. You pull a half empty bottle of whiskey out of your backpack and wave it under Rio's nose.

That snaps the asshole back to consciousness. Quickly. He moans and suddenly, you're... sobbing against his shoulder, pissed off at yourself for falling apart.

"Y/N?" You feel Rio's hand in your hair and you move to gently kiss him. He chuckles weakly.

"Oh, my Rio!" You sob. "What the hell is wrong with you?!"

"Ssh, mi amor. Shh. I'm okay."

"You are most certainly not okay!"

"Okay, okay. I'm not okay. But I will be." He unsteadily clutches the bottle of whiskey and takes a long sip. He coughs some, but just takes another sip.

He's not as shaky, thank goodness. You dig some beef jerky and crackers out of your backpack and tear them open, handing them to Rio. He eats slowly and you nibble on a broken cracker.

"You were very brave, mi amor," Rio says softly, grabbing your hand and pulling you closer. You carefully snuggle against him.

"I couldn't lose you, Rio." You're crying again and you're so mad for doing that.

Rio doesn't scold you. He simply holds you close and strokes your back.

"I'll be back on my feet before you know it." He gently kisses you and you smile against him before returning the kiss.

"I'm counting on that, you idiot."
