Chapter 4: Capture

Empire City, Twenty-four days ago...

Moya and a few troopers were outside a building with tankers, "Shoot him if he tries anything." Moya orders. "Yes, Ma'am," they answer and they followed her into the building. Once they were on the right floor, the men train their guns on Kessler, he slightly turns to them, "Hello, Moya. I was just freshening up." he informs her with a sign of flirting. But she clung her fist, "You're under arrest, Kessler." she snaps at him.

"Ha-HA. I don't think so." he mutters in an insantic voice "I feel sorry for you, Moya. The ground's shifted out from under your feet and you didn't even know it." he laughs and she clutches her fist even tighter. "Do it," she orders her men and they were closing in on Kessler. But he then shot out both of his hands and fired bolts right at them, killing a few on a sigh. Moya gasp in shock then pulls out her gun. "What the hell are you?" she questions him and he just smirks as electricity coursed over his body "You don't want to know. The Ray Sphere isn't here, by the way. A man named John White has it." Kessler informs her and she was confused.

"Who's John White?" she asks him, keeping her gun pointed at him, "An NSA agent sent to infiltrate the First Sons." he informs her and she was shocked that someone like him even knows at, "Don't act so surprised. Not everyone in the government shares your enthusiasm for our little project." he informs her and she glares at him again. "I'll deal with him later. But you- you destroyed this city, murdered thousands of civilians. I can't allow that to stand." she reminds him and he laughs yet again. "You think I did this as an act of destruction? No, no, no. It was an act of creation." he tells her as she steps back.

"You're not getting out of this city, Kessler. At least not alive." she tells him and he gave her a bored look, "I haven't planned on it." he tells her and she was gone. He then looks down at the picture in his hand, on his wedding day, with Trish, himself, Zeke and Cassandra all smiling on that day. "One short sleep past, we wake eternally, and death shall be no more; death thou shalt die."

Neon District, the Present...

A drone flew out over the area. "Overwatch, this is Talon Four. Primary targets' still in the building." Talon Four informs base. "Roger that Talon Four. Maintain eyes on targets." Base orders them.

Cassandra sat on the bed, in her clothing as she woke up early. She then stood up, and walks up and saw Cole was fast asleep on the couch. She looks at the mess he made and couldn't blame him, so she was over to the photo-book, picks it up and looks through the photos that were inside. Then picks up the picture of Kessler- or Cole wedding where everyone. Even herself were smiling as it was a happy day in the photo.

Bitterness and sadness eat away at her as she wanted to cry, even since the days after the explosion, Trish was like a mother to her, always worrying about her, making sure she was eating properly, ordering to go to bed at a decent time and even taught her about medicine as well.

She then heard Cole let out a groan as he shifts in on the couch, she looks at him and knew he was having a nightmare.

Cole walks through Empire city as it was in complete ruin, not a person in sight. "It's quite a sight, isn't it?" Kessler asks him as he was standing next to him, "I didn't mean for this to happen." Cole mutters as he looks out that the ruins. "But it did. Let me show you something." Kessler states and the scenery begins to change, "Where are we?" Cole asks him, Kessler just kept walking. "You'll find," he answers and they were in front of four graves. "This is where I buried my girls. I tried so hard to protect them. And the end I failed." Kessler informs him, "It's not my fault." Cole states as he looks away, "Of course it's your fault. You were soft, weak. You ran when you should've fought." Kessler reminds him.
