Chasing Fate

Chapter 20: Then there where, two.

[Joey's POV]

Shane: You want US, to join you? US?

Kipling: Yes. Do I have to repeat myself?

Shane went hysterical. He couldn't stop laughing. I wanted to reach over, tell him to stop. This wasn't a joke after all, at least I think it wasn't.

Shane: Do you really fucking think, that for one second I'll be stupid enough to join you? You are one real fucker if you think I am.

Kipling: Its either that, or we shoot you down right here right now. Your choice.

I was scared for Shane. If he said no, he'd be killed right in front of me.

Shane: Oh really? Well then, go a-

Joey: SHANE.

Shane: What?

Joey: PLEASE, STOP.

Shane: Stop what?!

I looked over at Kipling.

Joey: Yes, all three of us are joining.

Shane: Not me.

I was about to turn to Shane, when Kipling gave orders to his team. One by one, they took turns beating the living soul out of Shane. Sawyer dropped his head. Eyes tightly closed.

[Sawyer's POV]

I dropped my head as soon as I heard Shane's cry.When everything was said and done, I opened my left eye. The lights were blinding. To my left, Shane lay knocked out. His eyes, swollen. his mouth, cut up pretty badly. His face was covered if not drenched in blood.

Joey: Shane...

Kipling: Well then. Now, will you two be joining my crew? Or are you wanting to have the same treatment as your friend there.

I looked into Joey's eyes. Next thing I knew, I was lost. He turned away, and I came back to realization.

Sawyer: Where's our pimp outfits.

Kipling: Pimple?

Sawyer: Pimp.

Kipling looked to be around 60, he was totally lost at what I said.

Kipling: Is that another word for stylish or?

Sawyer: You know what, never mind. Where do we sign up?

A soldier approached us slowly, and dropped a clipboard on the table. He then placed a black pen to the right of it.

I started reading it, then...

Joey: Sawyer, look.

He pointed to small print in the corner.

Sawyer: "By agreeing to these terms, you shall work with the KCP Unit for the minimum of 10 years. As a result, your criminal records shall be wiped clean."

Joey: So if we sign it, we'll be set free?

Kipling: Yes, that's absolutely true. Your also saying that you'll work for me for the minimum of ten years. However, if you even try to escape the country, or cause chaos once again, you'll be jailed and prosecuted immediately.

[ Joey's POV]

A huge grin came across my face. I couldn't keep it down. My heart finally came to a normal rate. My eyebrows felt like they were almost completely off my face.

[ Sawyer's POV ]

I managed a huge grin. How could I NOT take the offer.

[ Joey's POV ]

Both Sawyer and I signed the contract.

Kipling: Well then, congrats. Before anything...

Kipling snapped his fingers. All of the guards surrounded Shane, and re cuffed him.

Kipling: Take him back to his cell, he's sentenced to lifetime in prison.

Joey: Shane...

He was now somewhat awake.

Shane: It's ok, you guys go out, and live. Visit me though, I'd love to hear about the outside sometimes. Bye..

A grin came across his face, swollen and beaten, it was nice to know nothing could bring this guy down. I shed a tear, then they disappeared out the door.

Kipling: Now. You will both need code names. Any thing in mind or...?

Sawyer and I looked each other in the face, and laughed.

Sawyer: I think we have some.

Kipling took the clipboard and pointed the pen at the paper.

Kipling: Ok, what?

Joey: Bono, Chang Bono.

Sawyer: Gumbi, Lee Gumbi.

Kipling wrote them down. He looked at one of the officers.

Kipling: *sigh* Kids these days.
