RAGE

Chapter 2: Flash Backs

The sounds of gunfire explosion the screams of mangled man and hateful curses of the dead run through my mind, but one thing that keeps me going. The hope of one day returning home to her. The chance to leave behind my blood stained soul.

But no matter how hard I try. My hands remember the feel of knives, guns and blood.

The scariest part of war isn't dying or killing it's getting used to killing. And I loved I could slaughter hundreds and my blood lust wouldn't be satisfied. Then my superiors ordered me to do the unthinkable.

Kill my brother Daniel. We had a psychic connection. I followed my orders. I killed my brother. I killed the brother that had the same blood as me the same training and the same taste for blood, but I had something he didn't.

I had something worth fighting for. I killed 500 people to get to a one monster. And now he won't get out of my head.he follows me and won't let me be. His face haunts me. He pushes me to keep fighting even when all hope is lost.

From birth we were trained in killing, assassination, espionage, and combat. I'd push him he'd push me but I was the idol student. I was praised. This made something fester and boil into resentment. It caused him to hate me, and I felt his anger we are linked I can feel very thing he does.

But I felt something he could not. There was a transfer from another academy, a woman.

I saw her and she took up the emptiness in my heart. I fell in love with her. She was top of all her classes even I had a hard time beating her in combat training. But my brother wanted to end both of us. One night he snuck into the armory and got a  9mm handgun and he was ready to kill both of us. I had followed him out that night and confronted him. He pulled the gun on me but he forgot about one simple thing.

All the guns are unloaded before being put away. He pulled back on the slide and pulled the trigger. Click, the gun has no bullets in it I grab his arm and twisted it around and bring it towards his backend puts him in an arm lock breaks his hand and throws him to the ground.

"Are you serious you think killing me will make things better. Do think by killing me you're going to be the Director new pet." He said yelling at his brother.

"THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT!!! You're my brother your a killer you're not suppose to feel love she's poison. It's sickening!!! YOU AND HER NEED TO DIE!!!" He screamed as he foamed at the mouth.

James runs and kicks Daniel in the jaw as hard as he could knocking him on his back it causes his teeth to bite into his tongue.

"HURT HER I'LL KILL YOU!" He said as he grabs his brother by the hair and started beating him in the face.

He drags Daniel by his hair to his superior
He drags him down the pavement to the room in which his superior was having a meeting he kicks open the locked door.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THE MEANING OF THIS!!!" Screamed Director Boliva.

"My brother broke into the armory and tried to kill me Director Boliva." He says as he picks up his brother and slams him on the superiors table.

"Good work. James..." He said trying to get his attention.

"Yes director." He said at attention.

"Alert security and tell them to come get this filth from our board meeting." He said.

"Yes sir." He saluted and exits the room.

She was standing out at the door way.

"Wha... What are you doing here?" He said with his palms sweating.

"I saw you sneak out so I followed you..." she said looking into his eyes.

"You saw as heard all of that didn't you..?" He said with a straight face looking back into her.

"Yep I sure did. Thank you" she said as she walked off.

3 years later

"Please brother don't do this." Said Daniel laying on the ground.

"Orders are orders." James said.

"Looks like the tables have turned" Daniel said full of anger as James pointed his pistol in his face.

"Only difference is this one has bullets." He said as he pulled back the hammer.

"How anticlimactic."Daniel said as his final words.

BANG!

"Mission control assignment accomplished." James said into his earpiece. "Air-support ready for E-vac."

"Roger that wolf. Tracking you now." Said the flight captain.

"Meet you at the landing zone." Said James.

At the opening of the building James begins running into the wooded area and and emerges into a green plane
A running comes through the trees he raises his gun aiming towards the noise.
And she bursts through the trees to the
E-vac point and James lowers his gun and puts it back into his holster.

"Took you long enough fox."James said.

"Shut up wolf the job got done didn't it?" She said as she tried to catch her breath.

The helicopter touches down in the opening in the woods near a mercenary hide out.

Load up alpha team let's get out of here.

"Roger that flight captain. Let's move." Said James.

The helicopter begins to take off it rises to 400 feet red lights start to flash the flight captain begins to freak out.

The flight captain yells and screams, "YOU GOTTA JUMP NOW!!!!"

The two jump out and a rocket from an RPG hits the chopper and ....

BOOM! Shrapnel and fire rain from the sky.

James starts to blacking in and out.

Brother.... Brother.... you thought you could kill me didn't you. You set me free.

He jolts up gasping for breath looking around.

"Fox... FOX!!!! Damn it where is she." He yells and stands to his feet.

He begins running and running trying to find her. And come to the end of the woods. There standing before him a firing squad bullets ring out pumping him full of led.

There hidden in the distance she watches him get slaughtered.

The merc's drag his body to a armored vehicle and load him into the back taking him to there other facility.

Daniel begins talking to him as he is between life and death.

Hahaha... Look at yourself you let your love cloud your judgement. And it made you a human bullet bag maybe I should let you die.

He falls lifeless more dead than alive. Daniel begins to fade and feel his brother's pain. Daniel looks at his ghostly body and his hands fade in and out almost disappearing.

No... no...... No! No! No!!!!
Brother wake up now!!! If you die I die.
Wake up damn it!!! If you die you will never see her again!!!

Air enters his lungs then the vehicle stops. The merc unload their cargo and take him to a heavily guarded building blockade. We're he lies there unconscious.

"Brother you are pathetic." Said Daniel.
