The Last Embrace Chapter 138

"Hon, what is it?" Miranda asked frowning.
"Nothing...," he answered. He roamed his eyes inside the restaurant, some of the tables were vacant. He shook his head, what was he thinking? Did he expect to see the crossbreed eating the fried chicken in the next table? Was she spying on him? He cleared his head and continue enjoying dinner with his family.
Jessy was munching on the crispy fried chicken silently in the corner.
Done eating the fried chicken, now she needs water or soft drinks, a cold refreshing cola to finish her meal! She waved her hand again and took one glass of cola from the table of another unsuspecting family eating their dinner on her left side.
Awesome!
As soon the glass was already in her hand, she began drinking the refreshing drink, it tastes wonderful!
A few minutes later, Captain Mercado's family exited the restaurant heading for home. In the parking area of the mall, the family gets inside the car. They left the malls vicinity and joined the hundreds of vehicles moving into the busy highway.
Thirty minutes later, they finally arrived home.
As the children scrambled out of the car, Captain Mercado was the last one to go inside the house, before he can exit the car his phone starts ringing, he picked it up and saw that the caller was an important person. "Good evening Sir!" he spoke into the phone.
"I want you to report to my office right now, Captain, there's an important matter I need to talk to you, I'm at the camp right now looking at some files," the voice said.
"Yes Sir, I will be heading there in the camp in a few minutes, I just need to tell my wife I'm going out for a while," he said.

"Good!" the voice said and ended the call.
Jessy was listening while the call was taking place, she was wondering who is that person the Captain was talking to? Never mind, as usual, she will just trail him wherever he goes.
Captain Mercado went inside the house and found her wife and the children brushing their teeth on the kitchen sink. He walked to his wife's side. "Hon, I need to go to the camp, Colonel Brown wants to talk to me in his office regarding work-related matters," he said.
Miranda nods her head. "Okay hon, you take care of yourself," she said.
Captain Mercado exited the house and get inside the car heading towards the military camp in the outskirt of the city.
Jessy was hovering in the air following the car on the busy highway.
The travel went smoothly, the sky was clear with thousands of stars illuminating the heavens above. It's a full moon tonight.
One hour later, the military camp was looming nearby, they finally arrived at their destination. The Captain showed his gate pass to the personnel guarding the entrance. The vehicle was allowed to enter the camp and the captain drives the car to the parking area. Captain Mercado exited the car and entered the camp and located Colonel Brown's office on the second floor. He found his superior looking at some files on his table.
Colonel Brown raised his head to acknowledge his subordinate's arrival.
Captain Mercado raised his hand in his head for the customary hand salute.
Colonel Brown nods his head pointing at the chair for the Captain to sit down.
Captain Mercado sat on the chair facing the colonel.
The Colonel starts talking."Before Major Miller died, he called me and we are discussing his request for warplanes to bomb the vampire's hideout. He mentioned to me that you were the one in charge in that operation but you failed a few times because of a certain powerful crossbreed with extraordinary powers creating havoc in your plans, is it true?"

"Yes Sir, everything Major Miller told you is true. On the night that we were about to attack the Facility that housed the remaining vampire... the crossbreed appeared in our campsite and stole our bomb launchers and weapons and hides them away."
"So, what this crossbreed can do?" he asked.
"She can do superheroes stuff like in movies, Sir. She can teleport, moves fast, floats in the air, have commands on winds, water, fire and what else? I still have no idea about the full scale of her power," Captain Mercado elaborated.
"I see, she's an interesting being, I'd never known anyone with the same powers like hers. When you say she's a crossbreed...she's an offspring of a human and a vampire couple? Am I correct?"
Captain Mercado nodded his head in affirmation. "Yes, that's correct, Sir."
"So, Captain, what do you think of the late Major Miller's suggestion? Should we bomb the Facility where the vampires were hiding by using warplanes?"
Captain Mercado shook his head vigorously. "No Sir! We can't do that, in case you don't know, there were 5k human workers in the surface of the Facility, they grow vegetables, herbs and spices and supplied it to the supermarkets. Below the ground is where the vampires were hiding, all these times the vampires were shielding themselves with human workers, we just can't bomb the entire area without harming the human workers as well, attacking the vampires' hideout needs careful planning..."
