Assassin (discontinued)

Chapter 3 Travel

We woke to the door opening. I sat up and saw that Halo was still fast asleep.
"God what do we got here?"
I looked at the boy standing inside our door. He had blue eyes with sandy blond hair and pail skin.
"God did my brother drug you Nate and put you there?"
I laughed,
"Be quiet you will wake him up."
He raised his hands in defense.
"Ok sorry."
"Yeah you should be or I will drug you too."
"What is going on?"
Halo sat up rubbing his eyes.
"Your brother is here."
"What is he doing here?"
"Wow nice to see you too Halo."
"What do you want Hunt?"
"God why do you always think I want something?"
I looked back and forth between the boys. I still didn't understand how they were related, they were complete opposites. Halo was kind and caring and hated this place. Hunt was cold and harsh, always going in for a kill.
Halo continued to stair at his brother waiting for him to answer.
"Fine, the boss wants me to escort you two lovers to the plane."
I waved my hand in denial.
"We are not lovers."
"Then why are you two in the same bed?"
"Because we were told to start acting like a couple so we are trying to master it."
He started laughing.
" God, you don't have to sleep together to learn how to act like a couple. All you got to do is hold hands, hug, snuggle, and kiss here and there."
I turned to Halo and Hunt,
"If anyone try's to kiss me I will deck them."
Hunt held his hands up.
"I was just saying."
"Yeah and I was just statin a fact."
Hunt rolled his eyes and Halo sat there dying in laughter.
"Hunt just leave the girl alone or I will personally have her deck you."
Hunt grumbled something but still sounded like a jerk.
"Just get up and get ready before I come in there and whip ya."
Both Halo and I got up and put on training clothes and grabbed our bag of clothes. We were about to leave before Hunt put his hands up to stop us from leaving.
"You might as well eat, it is a long trip."
We looked at each other and shrugged, then we went to the fridge and grabbed frozen pop tarts and looked back to Hunt.
"What ever, if you two starve not my fault."
      We walked down the twist and turned of the institute. We reached the double doors that lead to the runway for the private plane. I knew we had it because of my first mission. I hated that mission, that was the first time I had to kill a person. We walked out in the bright light to see the coach plane.
"Traveling in style."
I laughed at Halo.
"You are such an idiot."
"Yeah but I am your idiot."
I shook my head.
"Not yet, you are."
"You are stuck with me so that makes me your idiot."
"That doesn't mean anything!"
Halo looked down and shook his head. He started to laugh but quickly went silent when we realized that Hunt left.
"Why does your brother always do that?"
"He was told to bring us not stay with us so he has to prove that he is following your every word to get on your nerves."
"God he is annoying but we should get on the plane."
We walked up the steep stairs to the door of the plane and went to find the bed room we were sharing in the plane. Once we put our stuff down we went to the lounge area and just sat and chilled for the time we had on the plane.
"I don't get why we have such a big plane for two people, I mean it is just me and you."
Halo looked over like I was crazy.
"It is so we don't end up killing each other because we will be stuck in the same area this whole mission so they are giving us some space before we are together 24-7"
"I still don't get it, Halo, I mean if we are supposed to be together shouldn't we start early?"
"I guess but I think it will be nice to be able to be separated before we have to be inseparable."
I shrugged but didn't argue. I am slightly tired from last night. Halo sure snores load. I think he woke me up at least a dozen times. Sometimes I don't get how Halo ended up here, at a place like this with his ways. He is a joker, he has soul and actually morns every time he kills a person. He doesn't get over it, like he should, and I respect that of him. His brother on the other hand is a killing mad man. And I am somewhere in betweeen. I have killed many and I past the so called 'test', we don't really talk of that 'test' anyways. It is the most heart stopping experience by far. That is how they rose you to kill. I was always the stubborn one that made the instructors mad. I think I have more then one scar from opening my mouth when I knew I should of kept it shut.
"Nate! Woohoo anyone there?"
Halo kept waving his hand in front of my face. I finally blinked my eyes a few times and shook my head.
"Sorry I was stuck in train of thought."
"It is fine, just started to freak me out a bit and I was trying to talk to you."
I looked down at my hand while I twirled my thumbs around each other.
"Sorry."
Halo waved away my apologies.
"I told you not to worry about it. I mean I do it to you all the time."
I cracked him a smile.
"That is true."
All of a sudden the plane started to move. I never been a fan of heights, so therefore I hated planes . I jumped as soon as it started to move and when the wheels came up off the ground I yelped. Halo laughed and wrapped me in a hug and patted my head like if I was a small child. I just glared at him.
