Saved by Moxley (Book 1 of 4)

Chapter 5 - Uncovering the Truth

As Rachel and Moxley made their way towards the outskirts of the city, Rachel couldn't help but feel anxious about what was to come. She had always been a risk-taker, but this felt different. She knew that Mr. Reyes was not someone to be taken lightly, and the thought of going up against him was daunting.

As they reached the abandoned warehouse that Mr. Reyes had directed them to, Rachel's nerves began to get the best of her. Moxley noticed her apprehension and placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "We can do this," he said with a nod.

They cautiously made their way inside the warehouse, keeping their guard up at all times. It was eerily quiet, and Rachel couldn't shake the feeling that they were being watched. Suddenly, they heard a loud noise coming from one of the rooms at the back of the warehouse.

Moxley signaled for Rachel to stay back as he approached the room with caution. He slowly pushed open the door, ready for anything. Inside, they found a group of Mr. Reyes' men, all heavily armed and guarding something.

Moxley quickly signaled to Rachel to stay hidden as he engaged in a fierce battle with the guards. Despite being outnumbered, Moxley was able to take them down one by one using his impressive combat skills.

As the last guard fell to the ground, Moxley approached the object that they had been guarding. It was a small cage, and inside was a young girl, no more than ten years old. She was scared and alone, and Rachel's heart broke for her.

Moxley gently picked up the cage, and they made their way out of the warehouse. Once they were a safe distance away, Moxley set the cage down and opened the door. The little girl looked up at them with tears in her eyes, and Rachel couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over her. They had saved her.

But their mission wasn't over yet. They still needed to confront Mr. Reyes and put an end to his criminal empire once and for all. Rachel knew that it was a risky move, but she was willing to do whatever it takes to stop him.

As they made their way towards Mr. Reyes' headquarters, Rachel couldn't help but feel a sense of dread wash over her. She had no idea what to expect, and the thought of going up against him was terrifying.

But as they arrived at the building, they found it surprisingly easy to infiltrate. It was almost as if Mr. Reyes was expecting them.

They made their way through the building, taking down any guards that got in their way. Finally, they reached the main office, where Mr. Reyes was waiting for them.

"You shouldn't have come here," he said with a smirk. "You're no match for me."

Moxley stepped forward, ready for a fight. But before they could engage in battle, Mr. Reyes revealed a shocking truth.

"I know who you really are, Moxley," he said with a smirk. "Or should I say, Jonathan Good?"

Moxley froze, unsure of how to react. How did Mr. Reyes know his real name?

Rachel looked at him with confusion, and Moxley knew that he had some explaining to do. He took a deep breath and began to reveal his past.

"I used to be a part of a secret government organization," he explained. "We were trained to take down threats to national security, by any means necessary. But I left the organization when I realized that they were crossing lines that shouldn't be crossed. I've been on the run ever since, trying to stay off the grid."

Rachel listened intently, taking in every word. She had no idea that Moxley, who she thougt was just a regular pro wrestler and also her idol could have been apart of such a orginization. 

Moxley watched Rachel's face closely as she absorbed the information he had just given her. He knew it was a lot to take in, but he also knew she could handle it. She was a strong, smart woman who had proven herself to be a valuable ally.

After a moment of silence, Rachel finally spoke. "I had no idea," she said, shaking her head in disbelief. "I mean, I knew you were more than just a wrestler, but I never would have guessed...this."

"I know," Moxley said, his voice heavy with regret. "I wish I could have told you sooner, but I couldn't risk putting you in danger. And to be honest, I wasn't even sure if I could trust you at first."

Rachel nodded, understanding his reasoning but still feeling a bit hurt that he hadn't confided in her earlier. "I get it," she said.

Mr. Reyes then heard commotion outside and left Moxley and Rachel alone. 

Moxley could sense the tension in the air. They were both on edge, knowing that they were in a dangerous situation. Mr. Reyes could come back at any moment, and they needed to be ready.

"I'm sorry for keeping this from you," Moxley continued, "but I had to be sure you were on our side before I told you anything."

Rachel nodded, still processing everything she had just learned. "I am on your side," she said firmly. "I want to help take down this organization and put a stop to their illegal activities."

Moxley smiled, relieved to hear her say those words. "Good," he said. "We're going to need all the help we can get."

Suddenly, they heard a noise outside the door. They both froze, their hearts racing. It could be Mr. Reyes, or one of his men. They had to be ready.

Moxley motioned for Rachel to stay quiet, and he silently made his way to the door. He pressed his ear against it, trying to listen for any movement on the other side.

After a few tense moments, he heard nothing. He cautiously opened the door, peering out into the hallway. It was empty.

But just as he was about to step out, a hand reached out from around the corner and grabbed him by the collar, pulling him back into the room. It was Mr. Reyes.

Rachel stood frozen, unsure of what to do. She knew she had to act fast, but she didn't want to put Moxley in even more danger.

Mr. Reyes glared at Moxley, a sinister smile spreading across his face. "I knew you couldn't stay hidden forever," he sneered. "You should have just come to me from the beginning."

Moxley remained calm, his eyes fixed on Mr. Reyes. "I'm not afraid of you," he said defiantly.

Mr. Reyes laughed. "You should be," he said, pulling out a gun and pointing it at Moxley's head.

Rachel's heart skipped a beat. This was it. They were both going to die.

But then, something unexpected happened. A group of masked men burst into the room, taking Mr. Reyes and his men by surprise. They quickly overpowered them, disarming them and tying them up.

Rachel stared in disbelief. Who were these people? And why had they come to their rescue?

One of the masked men approached Rachel and Moxley, his voice muffled by his mask. "We're here to help," he said. "But we need your help too. We're planning a major operation against this organization, and we need all the intel we can get."

Moxley and Rachel exchanged a glance, silently agreeing to help in any way they could. They were in this together now, and they were determined to see it through to the end.
