Alejandro pushed the door to Valeria's holding cell open as the 141 went inside.
"What happened, fucking cowboy? Did you start a war?" Valeria teased as Alejandro glared at her.
"Violence chases you everywhere. I like it." Valeria grinned.
"I didn't make any deals with you, they did." Alejandro stated.
"That's your mistake." Valeria says as she grins, pointing to Alejandro.
"You knew there was a third missile?" Pice asked.
"Oh, I didn't count them. I have people for that." Valeria replied as she shrugged, her grin dropping.
"She's lying." Alejandro stated.
"Where's Hassan?" Gaz asked.
"Where's the other missile." Ghost demanded.
Valeria's stuck up face dropped as the masked man spoke to her. "Chicago." Valeria crossed her arms as she looked at Charlie, who was glaring at Valeria. Everyone's faces dropped as they looked at each other.
"What the fuck is going on?" Charlie asked.
"I said I'd tell you where he was. I didn't say I would stop him." Valeria said as she looks at the group
"Escorpión de la verga." Alejandro growled. "I warmed you she would do this, eh?" He said while looking at the 141.
"I run a business, señores, we grow or we die," Valeria angrily stated, "it's the way of the world."
"You put a target on your back." Price growled as he pointed at the woman.
"No, I put a target in Chicago." Valeria smiled, it was an evil smile. The smile quickly faded as her eyebrows furrowed, "now fucking leave Las Almas and go find it, Pendejos."
Price stared at Valeria for a moment before looking at Alejandro, "for now, she's all yours," Alejandro rolled his eyes. "But we'll be back," Price stated.
"I look forward to your return," Valeria smiled with a smart ass look on his face.
Alejandro pushed Valeria and escorted her out of the room, as Valeria left she grinned at Charlie, a grin that sent chills down her back.
"Soap, prep for proper transport and get Laswell. Hassan and the missile are in Chicago." Price stated as they all left the room.
"Are we going to Chicago, sir?" Charlie asked Ghost.
"Looks like it." Ghost said as he continued to look straight ahead. He never glanced at Charlie now things were getting we're getting serious, he wanted her to know that.
"Tonight, Las Almas can sleep." Alejandro said to Valeria as he put her in a transport vehicle.
"I'll be free in 24 hours...." Valeria stated as she sat down, "can't say the same thing about you, Vaqueros."
"You're going down for what you did." Soap stated as Ghost and Charlie stood behind him.
"It doesn't matter what I did, it matters what you can prove." Valeria grinned.
Rodolfo shut the door, ending the conversation as Alejandro turned to look at Soap, Ghost, and Charlie.
"Go... you have work to do." Alejandro stated.
Soap patted Alejandro's back as he smiled. "Keep fighting the good fight, hermano," Soap stated as Alejandro nodded. "To the bitter end, my brother," Alejandro smiled.
Charlie approached Alejandro and smiled at him before hugging the man, which shocked him.
"I'll hopefully see you again one day... maybe when you're legally allowed to be in 141, Hermana." Alejandro smiled.
Charlie chuckled a bit and nodded, "thank you, sir. I'll miss you," she smiled as she departed from their hug.
Rodolfo came over and hugged her after he finished giving Soap a handshake. "Good luck, amigos," Rodolfo continued, "stay strong, Charlie."
Charlie nodded as she felt a tear in her eye, she was leaving the first men she fought beside. Ghost motioned her to get a move on as she nodded. Charlie began to follow Ghost towards the airplane that would take them to the U.S.
"Ghost!" Alejandro shouted from behind him.
Ghost froze and turned around to look at Alejandro as Charlie continued to board the plane.
"No te pierdas, carnal." Alejandro smiles.
"Ahuevo!" Ghost shouts in reply while raising his fist as a goodbye and boarding the plane. Alejandro laughed as he watched them leave.
The large hatch closed as Charlie smiles and waved at Rodolfo and Alejandro, she stood on he toes to make sure they could see her as the hatch closed fully.
Charlie smiled and sat down in a seat. Ghost sat down right next to her as he looked over at her. Charlie was smiling and for once looked content with herself.
"I'm getting a sense of deja vu from seein' you two next to each other on a plane like this." Soap chuckled.
Charlie smiled a bit and nodded. "Am I going home after this?" Charlie asked as Soap shook his head, "we're finishing this mission off, all of us... then you're coming home with me, Charlie." Soap smiled.
Ghost felt a smile creep onto his face. It's lucky nobody could see it. He was happy for her. His hand reached over and patted Charlie's shoulder as she felt her smile get bigger.
"I can't leave this old guy behind though, Soap," she smiled, "I don't think he could handle himself all alone." Charlie laughed a bit.
"Eh, he'll be alright, lass. He's got Keller." Soap grinned and laughed as Ghost instantly rolled his eyes at Soap's taunt.
There was a pause of silence for a moment before Charlie spoke, "I haven't been to the U.S since my dad went no contact..." she said as Soap looked at her.
"Well you don't need that bastard anymore... 141 is your family now, lass... if you can get Ghost to like you then you must be one special kid." Soap smiled as Charlie nodded.
"Ever been to Chicago?" Ghost asked as she shook her head, "never."
"Let's get a nice pizza while we're there, eh?" Soap joked as Charlie laughed.
141 was her family now, she could finally say goodbye to her old life of torment and move forward...finally...
