By the time Rebecca made it to her bedroom, she barely stayed awake to finish getting unready, but when she finally put her silk pajamas on and curled into bed, she drifted off to sleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.The next morning, she awoke to birds chirping out her window. She smiled to herself and sat up, but saw something—no someone—standing in the corner. She screamed when her eyes finally adjusted, and Colby burst out laughing. "What is wrong with you?!" She gritted out jumping out of bed.
Colby ran a hand down his chest, still laughing. "Oh, dear Rebecca. You are delightful."
Rebecca grabbed a pillow and threw it at him. He caught it with ease and walked over to her bed to place it back down. "Good morning to you too."
"What are you doing in my room?!" She flared up at him. "I thought we were supposed to be in the meeting at nine."
Colby cleared his throat as he walked over to her dresser, pulling out clothes. "We are. But I wanted to discuss this mission with you first, so we need to be there a little early." He pulled a bra out and twirled around towards her.
Rebecca rolled her eyes when he dangled it in front of her. Walking up to him, she snatched it out of his hands. "Prick."
He chuckled and stood back while she grabbed a matching pair of underwear. "I'm your prick."
Rebecca shut the dressers drawers and turned back to him. "Go to hell."
Colby smiled. "Only if you'll be there waiting for me."
Rebecca gave him the middle finger as she walked to her bathroom. "Meet me in thirty!" He called out as she shut the bathroom door.
She arrived in the training room shortly after getting changed, and as soon as she walked in, Colby was already in his fighting suit waiting for her. She had never seen him in anything but his suit and tie, but his leather suit—a lot similar to hers—made him look like a real Supreme Commander.
He grinned at her, and motioned for the middle of the room. "I needed to talk to you about our upcoming mission."
Rebecca nodded and stood in front of him. He continued, "about a month ago, another empire formed an attack on my team when we were on a mission."
Rebecca furrowed her eyebrows. "Where and how?" She asked confused.
"We were over in Turkey trying to take down their empire when France found us and formed an alliance with them. They killed half my army and I vowed the survivors that we would get our revenge." He took a deep breath. "Im hoping we can fly over and form our attack tomorrow evening."
Rebecca slowly nodded as she took everything in. "So...you want us to leave today and plan our attack for tomorrow?"
Colby nodded. "That's exactly what I want to do. I just have to get it approved by you."
Rebecca swallowed and crossed her arms. "Okay. I approve. But, we need to form a plan with how us, and our soldiers are going to take them down."
Colby smirked. "That's why I called a meeting for today."
Rebecca sighed. "Do you always rush into missions like this?" She asked changing the subject.
Colby shrugged. "Most of the time, no. But Turkeys headquarters are located in the middle of a desert. The Karapinar Desert, to be exact, and I'd like to attack when they don't see it coming."
Rebecca gave him a small nod, and dragged her eyes to anything but his face. She looked at the room around her, and remembered the day that man had been shot in the middle of the room. It made her wonder how many others had been treated the same way, if there were any worse deaths that that. "What's going on in that crazy head of yours?"
She glared back up at him. "It's my head, not yours." The door swung open, and she just smirked at him. "Looks like it's meeting time."
The room filled up quickly with their soldiers. They were all suited up and prepared for the mission, Rebecca only wondered if they knew where they were really headed though. "Line up!" Colby commanded as everyone lined up beside of each other.
"Later today, we will be heading over to Turkey to attack their headquarters. I vowed to you guys—well at least to my fellow team—that we would get revenge. And after sending one of my spies over, I can't think of a better time to attack than tomorrow." He said standing tall.
The team all glanced at each other, and Rebecca made note to look at all of her former soldiers. Cody looked ready, but confused, as did Drew. Bianca looked ready to go, but Pamela and Ashley looked hesitant. "This will also be a test to see how our team is going to work together." Rebecca pitched in. "Sure, you've been training together, but can the team provide for each other on a real mission? That's to be determined."
Colby smirked at her, and she rolled her eyes and motioned for him to continue. He took a good look at the team before continuing. "Joseph, I want you and Cody to lead Randy, Bianca, Ashley, Pamela, Drew, and Mercedes, and plan your attacks on their headquarters. Jonathan and Liv, I want you two with me and Rebecca."
Joseph nodded. "We'll come up with a plan on the way there." He said glancing at Cody, who slowly agreed.
"What are me and Jonathan helping you two with?" Liv asked confused.
Colby sighed. "We need backup in case my plan doesn't work out."
Rebecca glared at him. "Your plan? You've already decided how we're doing this?"
Jonathan smirked, and winked at Colby. "Yes I have." He cleared his throat. "We leave in two hours. Pack your things." He said dismissing the meeting.
Rebecca waited for everyone to leave, and was waiting for Colby to explain what he meant, but he never did. He followed the rest of the team out, leaving her staring at the door. So it begins...
