Sergeant Hartman's Story

Chapter 12: Container Park

This was going to be fun.

Once we were in front of Marissa's headquarters again, I looked over at Aqua. She looked pretty worried about something.

"What's wrong, Aqua?" I asked.

"I don't know, I just..."

"Want Terra to be safe?" I guessed.

"Yeah." She replied, sheepishly.

"Don't worry. He'll be fine, just like you'll be. Now come on, let's go."

I explained the plan to Erik, and he explained it to Aqua.

I was going to go with Erik, and he'd go with me.

They all agreed on it, so we went in.

When we first parted from Aqua, Erik looked at me. "Do you think Hanna's ok?" He asked.

"Yeah." I replied. "She has had a lot of training, just like Private Terra has. They'll be fine. Look, here they come!"

So we fought against Issacs' men and did a really good job at it. With our rifles and fighting techniques, we won our battle, even with the 2 of us.

And I trusted that Aqua had done a good job as well.

When we fought until the top, there he was. Issacs.

"You think you're so tough. But you can't get me."

He jumped out of the window. Everything escalated so quickly I couldn't even believe it.

We looked outside, and Isaacs had jumped onto a car and started running away.

Well, there goes Issacs. We almost had him, but now we had something else to worry about.

1, Terra and Hanna. Were they safe?

2, Was Aqua safe?

Apparently she was, because she appeared in front of us when we were exiting the building!

"Where did you come from?" I asked.

"I used my keyblade."

Well, obviously.

"All right, well now we've got to find Terra and Hanna, so let's move!"

We searched the town and found nothing. It was a long search, and I had started to get discouraged until I saw a light. It was a club.

There were cops out there, probably scanning for shady activity. What a perfect opportunity.

I walked up to one of the officers.

I asked him about our friends, and he pointed to the container park. Instantly, I knew something was up.

When we arrived, we saw Private Terra standing in front of Marissa, yelling at her. She had a gun.

"My employees are taking care of all your other friends, and capturing Erik Heller."

"Not yet." I said.

And the timing was perfect. She turned around, and she was really shocked.

"You should be dead!"

No, I shouldn't. No one should be dead, unless they try to kill. That's why she deserved to die. But our orders were to bring her to jail.

So just when we were about to arrest her, Aqua asked about Hanna.

When Terra informed that she jumped into the water, Erik broke down.

Until the story escalated more and Hanna climbed out of the lake! (😂)

What was even more shocking is when they started fighting, Hanna kicked Marissa down, picked up her gun, and shot her. Killed her. Completely wiped her out!

Then Aqua yelled at her for killing what should have been our captive, and then Hanna cried and ran to her father, then he shooed us off and walked away!

Well, so much for that.

So even though we were no closer to the real problem, finding Ven, we decided to report everything to Master Eraqus.

We needed a break anyways.
