Compromised

Horatio?

You crept towards a table that had the weapon on it. M looked around a corner, then nodded towards you, signaling that Riza was out of sight. You tiptoed closer to the table, gently picking up the weapon and turning away. You gave M a thumbs up, and began to walk back towards the window.

"Stop," a voice demanded. You huffed and spun on your heel, facing the one and only Riza Stavros.

"What?"

"That weapon. You can't have that. Wait a second. You're Agent 13. The one who's brother was killed because she was reckless and didn't go to his aid when he was in trouble!" Riza said. You growled and pulled a knife out of your pocket, holding it against her neck

"Don't mention my brother. Ever. It'll be the last thing you do," you whispered in her ear. She visibly gulped, before smirking. Her third arm sprang into action, punching you right in the jaw. You stumbled backwards, searching for your knife, which had been launched across the room. A tad bit disoriented from her punch, you headed towards the knife, but Riza knocked you back with a lamp, causing you to fall to the ground, unconscious.

"13? 13, you gotta wake up," H stated, shaking your shoulder. You groaned as you opened your e/c eyes, looking up at H.

"What happened?" you asked groggily.

"You got hit with a lamp, but it didn't do any major damage. We have to go. We got the weapon." You pushed yourself up, seeing Riza's alien friend aiming a gun at her. H helped you up as you stumbled only slightly. You saluted Riza as the three of you left her fortress, beginning the journey back down to the boat.

"That was... That was a rush," M said with a soft smile.

"Yeah," H began. "And incredibly painful."

"I should be the one complaining about pain, I'm the one who got knocked out!" you grinned.

"Yeah," M breathed.

"Pretty sure the plan went wrong in every conceivable way," added Pawny. You laughed softly at his comment.

"So, uh," H paused. "It's Molly, huh?"

M was silent. "You're not supposed to know that."

"Too late. I know it now," H stated. "Guess it's only fair that you know mine." You leaned closer to hear him, wondering what his name was.

"I don't wanna know yours," M protested.

"M, shut up and let the man speak," you teased. This caused M to roll her eyes.

"I'll tell you, ready?" H held back a smile as he continued. "Horatio."

"Horatio?" you snorted, biting your lip to keep yourself from laughing.

"It is not!"

"You're right, it's not," H smiled. "It's Henry." You looked to him with a soft gaze in your eyes.

"Yeah. You seem like a Henry," you said.

"Then what about you, 13? What's your name, then?"

"You really want to know?" you questioned.

"Yeah," H replied.

You looked to the ground before saying, "Y/n."

H stopped you, grabbing your hand and pulling it to his lips and kissing your knuckle. "Beautiful name."

Biting your tongue to stop the blush from reaching your cheeks, you replied, "Thank you." Nope, the biting of the tongue didn't help. At all. You felt heat rise to your cheeks, so you turned away from him and began to walk away.

"I'm Steve," Pawny announced. M looked to him curiously.

"Steve? I thought you said pawns didn't have names."

"We don't... I was just feeling left out."

"Heh, oh Steve," H chuckled. You stopped on the edge of a cliff, looking out over the blue water, taking a deep breath. You looked down at your feet as the ground started rumbling and shaking. H pulled you away from the edge, keeping a protective arm around your waist as the ground fell away, except for a small section which held you, H, and M.

"I don't like what the earth is doing right now," M stated.

"No, no, no." You looked over and say the Dyads approaching, slowly, with eyes glowing blue, and bodies made of nebulas.

"Kabla nakshulin!!" The Dyads came closer, almost as if they teleported. "It was worth a try."

"We must have the weapon, for the Hive," said they Dyads in unison as they came nearer.

"No! You can't have the weapon!" you exclaimed, glaring at the two.

"We are the Men in Black," H told them. "The Men and Women in Black!" He gave M a thumbs up, to which she copied. "If you think we'll just hand this thing over, you've got another thing coming."

"You don't know who you're dealing with. We protect the earth. That means everyone and everything on it," you growled. "So no. You can't have the weapon. Not now, not ever." As H continued to speak, you went over to M, nodding softly, and grabbed the weapon and pointing it right at the Dyads, saying, "Move, and I'll obliterate this entire island and everything on it, meaning you, me, them, everything!"

"We'll do anything to protect our world," H said.

"So will we!" At that moment, blue jolts of energy shot through the Dyads, and they collapsed to the ground. Several MIB agents came forward, out of the treeline, and the energy made the Dyads almost explode in blue light. You released a breath you didn't know you were holding, handing the weapon to M, and placing your hands on your knees, breathing in and out deeply.

"Nothing in this universe is unkillable. With the proper voltage," High T chuckled, approaching H. "Are you three all right?"

"I got hit on the head so hard I got knocked out, but yeah, I'm fine," you smiled.

"Sir, how did you find us?"

"Experience," he smiled to M, turning to H. "Riza again, H? When are you going to learn?"

"Uh..."

T placed a hand on H's shoulder. "I knew I could count on you. That, in the end, you'd pull through."

"Thank you, sir."

"You too, M. Agent O had a feeling about you, and she was right." T held out his hand, and M placed the weapon in his palm. You squinted softly, thinking that something wasn't quite right. Something seemed... Off.

"The universe has a way of leading you to where you're supposed to be..."

"At the moment you're supposed to be there," H finished, glancing softly to you.

"Let's go home."
