The Agent (Completed)

Chapter 16: A Different Side Of The Story

Agent's P.O.V
Memories started to flow into my mind as I had realized that this man, the strange man who had been murdering and stealing from the homeless and the community was no other than my brother.  The number one thing that flashed in my eyes was the image of Joseph slicing his neck, his little five year old neck, who had no idea, what the hell was going on. I also remembered myself as the coward as he told me that I had run away, my mind was telling me I was the reason he was murdered, but in reality he was alive.

I was rushed right back into reality as he started to explain what had happened to him all these years. He had been side by side with Joseph since day one, and Joseph had not confessed that he, the one man I wanted to murder, was the man who killed our own mother, and also tried to assassinate him and I. What more could I do, except stand there like the coward I always was and listen to all the lies he had confide in.

I could no longer intake all this information, so I did what was best and turned around. I started to walk away from the one boy, I promised to take care in my entire existence. I walked near the car I was once in and waited for Steven to get in. The car was silent for a minute or two, and finally Steven had walked into the car. I had a few tears fall off my cheek as I turned the car around and as I stepped on the pedal, I saw the reflection of my own blood look at me in shame, and walk away slowly into the dark as he once belonged in.
My mind was writing an argumentative essay and convincing me to go back and fix what I had broken, but I debated the fact that he didn't want to listen because of the lies he was controlled by. I had reached a stop light not that far from the scene when my heart decided to make my choice.

I stepped on the brake and made the fastest u-turn in all human kind. Steven gripped onto his leather seat belt and prayed silently for his safety. I hit the pedal and went back to the scene I was once stepped foot on and then hit the brakes as fast as I could.

"Get out," I motioned to Steven while staring at his green eyes.

"What? No, I'm not leaving you again," he replied.

"You have no choice, I have to find my brother and help him out of this,"

"Well, that too bad, I'm going with !"

Without a blink of an eye, I controlled Stevens arms with my mind and shoved him out of my car. I waited till the car door locked and sped away. I could hear Steven screaming out something when out of the blue a tall man landed on my car. It was Joseph staring me down with his scar on his chest and a big scar of a slash on his face. Without a minute or second passing by he punched the window of my car and locked onto my neck and lifted me from the seat I was once in. He held me up high and started laughing at me.

I started to kick him to try and get out of my hold but it was no use. He was in fact stronger than me and I could not do anything but struggle to get loose of his grip. He then threw me against the wall of a building and stood there on top of the car. After that my brother came outta nowhere and stood right behind him.

"This wasn't part of the deal, Joseph!" He stated in anger.

"Isn't this what you wanted, didn't you want revenge for your sister leaving you, for your sister abandoning you." Joseph stated while walking toward my brother.

I got up from the position I was currently at and ran inbetween them. I pushed Jake back and kicked Joseph towards a wall to left of me.

"Listen, I get you're mad, but look," I stated while lifting my shirt. I showed him the scar I had from Joseph when he had stabbed me almost 11 years ago. "He did this, and he did that to you," I stated while gently touching his neck. There had been a long slash of a scar on his neck that he was hiding.

"You lied Joseph!" He stated a loud.

"She's the one lying to you, I did none of the sort, that scar could be from anything or from anyone. Don't you remember Jake, I was the one who helped you out, I found you and your mother and saved you!" Joseph stated while walking towards us.

"Yet, you helped my brother, but couldn't help my mother!" I stated aloud.

Then Jake collapsed on the floor and began to breathe heavily. It had looked like he had seen the most scariest thing in all history and began to turn pale.

"She's right, she's right, you're the liar Joseph, you lied about those poor people trying to destroy us, when in reality they were innocent," Jake stated while getting up.

He then grew heavily angered and ran towards Joseph, he had been stronger and faster and held him in a chokehold against the building. He then stared at him and whispered something in his ear, then threw him away from the scene. He then walked near me and hugged me.

"I'm sorry Melissa, I'm sorry I killed innocents, I don't deserve these powers, or any of this." He stated aloud.

"Jake, it's fine, Joseph was the reason behind it, not-" I was interrupted by something gushing out of Jake.

I looked down at his stomach to see hazel liquid pour out of him and then he collapsed.

I looked up to see Joseph with a rifle in his hands and he had shot my brother. I ran towards him and jumped over any obstacle in front of me. Everything seemed to slow down. The memory of my brother being born came to me, his baby laughter made me run faster, the last day I saw him, that innocent face looking at me as if it were asking me to help, and this time I did.

I got Joseph and gripped onto his gun and took it from him. I bashed his rifle against his head and then kicked him off the building. I ran towards him and held him in a chokehold and all my anger came out. I grabbed a sword I had on my back and slid it right through him. He screamed out in laughter and said,"what a beautiful day," and I threw him on the ground. His body collapsed and he laid there with a smile on face.

I ran back to Jake and held his muscular body in my arms.

"No no, don't die on me again Jake, I'm here now, I always have been, I promised you I would be back,"

And the memories in my head started to pour out like molasses. Slowly first showing the image of my mothers, than my brother, than Steven, and then my father all being killed or kidnapped. I started crying out loud that he would be okay. I placed his body down and scooped the bullet out of him, but then I realized his body was still human, Joseph had lied about making him immortal, he just made him human with a charge of ferasium in his blood. I started to lightly slap him in the face to wake him up, but it was no use. Steven came in running with Chuck and he sat next to me and grabbed my hand. I stared at his face and began remembering the last day I said I would get revenge on the man who killed him. I got up from my position and watched as Chuck began to give him a hazel liquid that will make him immortal.

I walked towards Joseph's still body and then I began to beat his body. Every time I placed my fist on his body a memory flashed in my head. Then Steven came near me and hugged me from behind.

"It's over Melissa," he stated softly.

And I collapsed into his arms and the tears began to flow. All I could remember was repeating the same words over and over. "It's only begun." And then i began to feel unsteady and my eyes grew heavily tired. It had been a long time since I felt this way. I looked over to Jake who had been a blur now and saw a figure stand up. He ran towards me and then I stared at Steven who was yelling something, but I couldn't hear.

Then without a second passing by, my world was darkened.
