「Stars and Gunpowder」 | Harry Hart x Character OC Book 1

Chapter 9 : It was a Fucking Blank!

 "Some Showbiz News for you today, Celebrity Star Elena Bright was not present for her latest film premiere, some suspect that she has been kidnapped, sadly this is the only thing we have on the story" Harry stares at the screen in anger but he was interrupted by a notification on his tablet that Arthurs car has been stolen by none other than Eggsy, he sighs in frustration.

He leads the car back to his flat, he stands outside his balcony staring at Eggsy with a disappointed look. They both head inside "You waste your biggest opportunity over a fucking dog, and then you humiliate me by stealing my boss' car" Harry states "You shot a dog just to get a fucking job?" Eggsy looks at Harry "Yes, I did" Harry walks over to his bathroom door and opens it "Mr. Pickles reminds me of that everytime I take a shit!" He says angrily

"You shot your dog and had it stuffed? You fucking freak!"

"No, I shot my dog then brought him home and continued to care for him for the next eleven years until he died of pancreatitis" Harry tells Eggsy

"What?"

"It was a blank Eggsy, a fucking blank, remember Amelia? She didn't drown, she works in our tech department in Berlin, she's fine" Eggsy scoffs at Harry in disbelief "Limits must be tested, a Kingsman on condones risking a life to save another" Harry adds "Like my Father did? Even though your fuck-up cost his?" Harry looks at Eggsy with pain and regret

"Can't you see that everything I have done has been about trying to repay him?"

Eggsy realises his mistake but was interrupted by Harry putting on his glasses as Merlin contacts him, after a few minutes of being silent, he speaks up "South Glade Mission Church, Merlin, get the plane ready" He takes off his glasses and turns back to Eggsy "I'm so sorry Harry, I'm gonna do every-"

"You should be, you stay right here, I'll sort this mess out when I get back"

"What did you do to me? I killed those people, I wanted to" Harry asks looking down at his bloody hands "Clever isn't it? In short terms, it's a neurological wave that triggers the centers of aggression, setting off the inhibitors" Harry calms down looking Valentine straight in the face "Transmitted through your nasty free SIM cards, I assume"

"You know what this is like? It's like those old movies we both like! Now I'm gonna tell you my plan and then think of an absurd and convoluted way to kill you and you'll find an equally convoluted way to escape" Valentine walks up to Harry, and he immediately thought of Elena "Sounds good to me" He thought if Elena heard this she would scoff and say You're so dramatic "Well this ain't that kind a movie" Valentine brings out a gun and turns his head away shooting Harry straight in the eye

His last thoughts were all about Her.
