Can't be Cured (R6S X Male Reader)

Chapter 16: Before the Storm

"I believe that death and destruction are inches from my nose, and nothing I do will save me. If I'm lucky, I won't get re-incarnated to repeat the cycle ad infinitum."
-Epsilon

In my shock I sat down on my bed as Grace filled me in on who exactly Sam Fisher was, I tried not to over think it all but I was felt nervous.

Dokkaebi: Anyway, do you think this siege is gonna work?

Fiend: It should, after all I have faith that we can do this.

I sit up and stretch, I cracked my knuckles out of nervousness. Grace sat up on the bed realizing this and did the best she could to wrap her arms around my waist, I turned around and lifted her up so we were face to face as she sat in my lap. She held onto me with her arms and legs and gave me a peck on the check, she rested her chin on my shoulder as she held me in a hug.

Dokkaebi: I want this to be over, I wish everything could go back.

Her grip tightened, I could fell a single tear drop roll from her cheek onto my shoulder. I held her tighter as she sniffled and wiped her eyes, I rubbed her back as gently as I could doing my best to comfort her.

Dokkaebi: I don't know what's going to happen to Em, and I don't know how this mission is gonna play out. I don't wanna loose anyone, but it feels like everything I have is slipping away.

She pulls away for me to see her teary eyes, I grabbed hold of her hand as I used my shirt to clean her face.

Fiend: I'm not slipping away, I'm with you Grace and theres no way in hell that I'm leaving you. No mater what they may try I'll be fine, we won't let them take anymore from us then they already have. We're gonna take back what's ours and kill every last one of those fucks, together. I love you Grace, and we'll get through this. 

As a few more tear drops rolled off her face and onto the bed she buried her head into my chest, I embraced her keeping Grace close to my chest. There was only silence in the room with a few interruptions of her sniffling, she pulled away wiping her eyes clear.  

Dokkaebi: Thank you, I. . . I needed that.

I gently placed a kiss on her forehead.

Fiend: I know you did.

Our moment of intimacy was disturbed by two loud knocks at the door, the focused tone of Eliza's voice was heard from the other side.

Ash: Come on we don't have much time lets go!

Fiend: Yeah we're coming.

I looked at Grace, her face was red and eyes redder. It was obvious that she had been crying.

Fiend: We should go, also you face is pretty red.

She smiles and shakes her head slightly as she gets off the bed.

Dokkaebi: I know, but I don't care.

I got off the bed and started towards the door, I was stopped as Grace grabbed my elbow giving a minor tug.

Fiend: Yeah?

Dokkaebi: I meant what I said, thank you. I wasn't in a great spot and that really helped me, I'm not sure what I'd do without you.

I smile and step towards her, with an arm around her back I lean in and make our lips meet. Graces hands pressed against my chest, I didn't want our moment to end but I knew our time was short so I pulled away, but slowly enough so I could still enjoy. As it ended, I ran my thumb across her cheek before opening the door. We left for the armory to prepare ourselves, we strapped on our equipment and loaded our weapons. We brought plenty of bullets, with more than enough courage. Grace and I boarded the chinook, nearly every operator was on this heli or another. Paired with other SAS, GSG9, and GROM teams it would be enough to take their HQ. 

Six: *over coms* Everyone may I have your attention, I know some of you are unsure about our next move. You may have personal ties, or rather just worried about what this means for our future. I will say to you now that the corruption of the GIGN is a horrible shame and dishonor to the French people, and it is up to us to bring all those responsible to justice. I'd wish you luck, but you won't need it to succeed. 

As Fisher stepped onto the chinook the door to the heli started closing, he cracked his neck before clearing his throat.

Zero: Well everyone, this is the first time we'll all be working together. Not the best circumstances, but either way it's the reality we have to face. Lets do this fast and clean, no hesitation. 

He sat down and cracked his knuckles, I'm not sure if what he said was a speech to motivate us, or him telling us not to fuck this up. Never the less it helped.

Jager: *over coms* Everyone this is your pilot speaking, we're beginning our take off so get buckled in. Next stop is France.  

I could feel the vibrations of the blades spinning, the sound of them felt near deafening. I did my best to block it our but it was all I could focus on, after all my mind was all over the place. Just the thought of it all gave me anxiety, we're going to war with the GIGN. No negotiations and no mercy, even for Em, or Gustave. I can't believe I would let myself think that either of them will make it out of this with their freedom, everything is just falling apart. 

. . .

Her touch, Graces hand was warm. It felt like she is giving me light in a darkness so black it could swallow the sun, yet the cure is her hand on mine. It felt hard to believe but her touch, no her presence stabilized my mind. Graces eyes leered into mine, I felt slightly embarrassed so I looked to my feet. With a nudge from her I looked back up, and even with everything. Her sadness, anxiety and heartache she still managed to smile. Her fingers interlocked with mine as her head rested on my shoulder, and much like love her smile was contagious. It spread to me, then shorty after a few others around us. They took notice and got some happiness out of seeing us, knowing that even now before the raging storm that is this war, there is still time for a smile.

Alright humans this is the end of the chapter, yes it was very, very short. Consider this a little filler, but the next chapter will be action packed and filled with plenty to read. I have a little something special for the next chapter, it may remind you of a certain movie. So stay tuned and bunker down for the next chapter, 1233 words.
