Badass In Hiding

chapter 6

Dean POV

I sit on the sofa every part of me is tensed as I'm waiting for something to happen. After Peter had come and gone yesterday I had gone to bed. I woke up by the sound of movement and though it was Chase but I was quickly tackled by two guys, as I watched the third move out of my eyesight quickly, who restrained me and locked me in the cupboard after giving me a hard blow to the head that knocked me out. I woke up later in the dark and tried to make noise to let someone know I was there, but what could've been a few minutes felt like hours and it was Chase who found me after he got back from wherever it was. Since then we have checked and rechecked for bugs and watched the new car outside which no one has come or gone from.

"Can you just chill for five minutes?! You're making me stressed!" Chase says. I look over to him and give a glare,

"Are you fucking kidding me? We are on a mission where no one should be able to find us and then three people come in and fucking bug the room! Are you not scared?" I ask in disbelief.

"If I was scared I wouldn't be a good agent." He tells me, I try not to let his words get to me and send a harsh glare in reply.

"Whatever." I mutter. The sound of his phone pinging grabs his attention and he looks at his phone. He raises and eyebrow at what he's reading,

"She did that fast." He mutters quietly to himself before tucking his phone in his pocket.

"Who did what fast?" I ask,

"It's none of your business yet Dean. Better you're left in the unknown for as long as possible." He replies. I sigh and look away back out the window at the car. Both of us quickly move to grab our weapons and get a better look whilst making sure we get a better look as to black cars pull up. Mr Kennedy and the boss get out of each car and quickly meet in the middle to shake hands. They then share quick words before looking up. Chase and I quickly move completely out of eyesight. We both look at each other completely confused as to what is happening. I look out the window again after a minute notice Mr Kennedy and the boss have gone and instead there is a lot of agents around standing guard. There is a knock on our door and I look to Chase wondering what to do. He rucks his gun in the back of waistband covering it with his shirt and I do the same before he goes the answer the door.

"Agent Chase, and Agent Dean. How good it is to see you again." Mr Kennedy says.

"I'm sorry Mr Kennedy, perhaps you got us mixed up with other clients. My name is John Elson and this is my business partner Robert Bradbury." Chase lies, and so convincingly it almost makes me what to believe him, but Mr Kennedy just smiles.

"It's okay Agent Chase. You can reveal your identity." The boss is the one to talk this time. Chase doesn't say anything and just studies the two people standing in our doorway.

"Why are you here?" I ask after a minute of silence. The boss and Mr Kennedy look at each other before looking to me.

"We believe it is time to hire you two into the bigger picture"  the way the boss says it send shiver up my spine.

"Perhaps you can let us in?" Mr Kennedy asks, but before he gets an answer he pushes his way in. He walks over to the couch and sits down making himself comfortable. Slowly the rest of us make our way there aswell.

"What is this 'bigger picture'?" Chase asks when we have all sat down.

"Chase. You are a loyal agent and without a doubt one of the best we have ever had taking after your parents in everyway-"

"Stop flattering me and tell me." He says interrupting the boss.

"Very well. I'm sure as you know that politics in America aren't good at the moment... if something isn't done soon well the whole country could go to war with itself." He starts. "We believe we have found a way to fix this problem."

"Our country is cracked but we can fix it before its broken." Mr Kennedy continues, "all we have to do is release the secrets of all the important key figures in helping run the country. This way there is no way that a particular party can win and a lot people would be kicked out of office. By having this it means that we can place in key specific people like myself who can help rebuild the country into a better place." I'm shocked at what I'm hearing and clearly so is Chase as neither of us replies to what we heard.

"Is this real? Or you testing our loyalty?" Chase asks.

"Both. We would like you to join our cause and help us receive it." The boss replies. I look over at Chase as he looks at me. His eyes tell me straight away that he isn't going to accept it and hesitantly I agree with him.

"The answer is no. Some of those secrets will cause deaths and some of those people will never be able to show themselves from the embarrassment." Chase speaks us both. Mr Kennedy's jaw hardens.

"And your point is. Deaths are going to happen if we don't do anything." He hisses.

"And the fact that you will end up in office. You killed your family! You can't be trusted and you're a cold hearted killer." Chase says. Mr Kennedy gets up fast and goes towards Chase but the Boss pulls him back.

"I don't understand why you want this? And why now you come to us? Was it because you were satisfied from what your heard through bugs that you placed in the apartment yesterday?" I ask finally contributing to the conversation.

"Bugs?" The boss asks. I nod my head slowly. "Shit. Mr Kennedy I believe it is in our best intrest to leave. Now." The both quickly agree with each other and get up making their way towards the door.

"Wait what's happening?" Chase asks them. Before they can reply a loud bang goes off and the room shakes.
