The War's End

Chapter 3

Arabella's POV

We arrived here in Brussels. This would be our last stop before going the rest of the way to London. We're going to stay the night, and leave early in the morning. Then we'll get to the UK, we'll drive the rest of the way because the train will take to long. Kai said he could sense the that something was going to go wrong, and that he could sense the presence of Thanatos' minions. Dmitry said we would solve that if it came up.

The train came into the station, and things immediately went badly. As soon as we got off someone tried to kill us. He walked up to Kai and put a gun to his head. Dmitry almost immediately grabbed the gun, turned it on the man, and killed him. It was probably the fastest I've ever seen a human hand move, besides the time I walked in on Alex pleasuring himself (long story).

We continued to walk around the train station, where we found that the tunnel was under repairs, and we'll be stuck here in Brussels for 2 days. Dmitry wasn't too happy of this (He nearly punched the man) and asked Kai if he could teleport us that far (He can't). So we decided we'll stay here while we waited. They said they've never been to Brussels before so it should be fun for all of us. (Although, I was already being distracted by the chocolate salesman nearby.)

Luckily, there was an MI6 base secretly stationed here, so we set of for it by metro. Everyone was looking at me, then I realized, they were looking at Dmitry, who was lightly splattered with blood. "You think you should change?" I asked.

"When we get there I will, and I'll see what they have for transportation."

Kai leaned over to me, "He loves cars. They're his passion. He was a mechanic before he worked here and before he joined the Spetsnaz. I think his mom was a mechanic too. It would make sense."

We arrived at the base, but I had so many questions for Dmitry. Who was his mother? What is his complete backstory was the short way to describe the questions I had. I really then realized how little I knew about him. I didn't even know how old he was. Dmitry might not even be his real name. Okay, that was a bit extreme, but I was pretty much just following a stranger around. Sure, this stranger saved my life, but what all did I really know about him.

Just then, Dmitry rolled up in a bright yellow Ferrari. "Wanna take this thing out for a spin?" This would be my chance, to ask him all my questions, to find out who he is.

Then Kai walked over to me, "You're awfully brave or stupid to ride in a car with Dmitry. He has a habit of going a bit fast and..."

Dmitry interrupted, "Hey, speed has never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary...that's what gets you." I don't like the sound of that, I was thinking to myself, but I then couldn't think of anything as Dmitry revved the car, deafened me with it's loudness, and flew out of the garage. I had never feared for my life as much as in those next few minutes.

"What is this death trap?!?" I practically screamed.

"It's a Ferrari F12tdf. 780 horsepower, and a top speed of 211 mph. This thing will hit zero to 60 in 2.9 seconds, and cost half a million dollars. And it sounds AMAZING!" He yelled as we drove through a tunnel, making it seem even louder as it resonated through the tunnel. I could ask my questions, I was too terrified to say anything.

Then it got worse.

"Cops! 12 o'clock!" Sure enough, there were two police cars ahead of us. "Hold onto your ass!" he yelled has is violently jerked the steering wheel to the left and then sharply to the right. He drifted us perfectly between them, even though my screaming would have disrupted anyone's focus.

"Now this is podracing!"

"STOP MAKING MOVIE JOKES AND DRIVE!" I screamed in terror. How had he not died from doing this? He was drifting around every corner, some of which I felt like I was gonna throw up on. "Dmitry! This is ridiculous! Stop right now!"
