The salt in the air; the breeze; the joyous crowd that surrounded her,cheering heartily; and the turquoise blue ocean. Alex was ecstatic as today was the day her best friend was getting married to her beloved brother.

          .・✫・゜・。.

It was the same big blue ocean, peaceful and blanketed under a bed of glimmering stars.  Alex turned to look at the man huddled next to her, the center of her universe, " I love you" she whispered, "I love you too" he whispered back.

          .・✫・゜・。.

Alex hated the scent of hospitals; it always brought back awful memories. But as soon as she took her tiny nephew in her arms, she seemed to forget everything about it. "Bro, why is he so small?" she gasped. It was quite comical.

          .・✫・゜・。.

A dusky, dimly illuminated control room. vague, indistinct conversations could be heard all over the place. and then a familiar voice...

"grey speaking, i can make out exactly 11 heat signatures from inside the building, the rear passageway to storeroom 3 is clear" Alex stated.

"copy, alpha team moving in right now" the representative named venus responded.

*5 minutes later*
*BOOM*

"Mars speaking, we just heard an explosion, nothing in sight, what is going on?"

"it looks like there was a trigger bomb near the rear entrance to the building, there is no incoming video feed anymore, the thermal imaging is all over the place. "

"Rear entrance? didn't the alpha team just go in there?"
"venus, come in, VENUS? SARA ARE YOU ALRIGHT? Alex, I'm going in."

"calm down lay, I don't have a good feeling about this, it sounds like an ambush, do not proceed, I repeat, DO. NOT. PROCEED."

"It's too late, I'm inside."

"damn it lay, plea-" **BOOOOM**

"NOOOO."
