《The Final Light》Chapter 22: Lights sudden struggle
Advertisement
I step out of the room, leaving the scene that I have made Jones and Lich must have heard from Kimber about the situation as while I stand there they both tap my back to show that they care about me. I just don’t know how to react now should I continue to cry or should I act like this had never affected me.
“Sir, I think the best course of action should be to continue on with your life and keep the words that they had said close to heart at all times” Lich said “Thank you lich for the advice I will keep it in mind” it is going to be hard from now on, how would Beth think of me that I killed our best friend, what do I do about this damnit I cant just say that I killed them out of nowhere, she would freak and hate me for the rest of my life. Just how?
I guess I have to keep thinking about that, it will come to me later or further on in the future but at some point I will have to find a way to say something about it. Lich and Jones right now are maybe thinking ‘well are captain is fucking depressed’ if they knew only if they knew, we all leave and walk down to the floor where the rest are, and they are fast at clearing buildings and rooms as they are on the 1st floor waiting for me to finish what I up to so we can leave, while walking down though as the elevators were dangerous, reason why is because of small fire fight as stary bullets hit the cables attached to the god damn thing so we deemed it unsafe to use, at least that is what I was told by Lich when I asked about why we were not using it. I noticed something while we walked down the stair well and that was the amount of government soldiers being posted on the roof tops of places surrounding the building, we are going to be made sure we kept quite and in body bags.

I grabbed my radio and asked for winters and as soon I as I asked he was on the line “you have noticed as well sir” he said being in a bit of worried state, “the amount of government dogs around us is starting to make me think this was a mission to get two birds with one stone” he had read my mind, the matter of Jacob and the news to Beth will have to wait for now as a more bigger issue has arisen, once I reached the ground floor I presume the rest of the governments lap dogs would be in place and ready to fire on any of us if we stepped outside, I with all my knowledge and power I have in masses definitely know what to do in this situation know what to do, and that is to ask for help from dad A.K.A Jackson.
“Lich patch me into Jackson on a secure net line” I ask of Lich he promptly does so as from I can tell, he is worried about this situation. “What is it I told you don’t ask for me while you guys are on missions” “We have a problem of that being the government wanting the Team dead, have they found out about what we are doing?” “They could have, but they would have raided this place while the idea was just starting out” he is right about that so what do they want? “If I remember correctly did you not say that they wanted to send to the science sector so they run some tests” “Yes they did tell me that. . . they are after you” that fact now changes the whole picture and if I am correct Jackson did tell me about this but it seems I forgot about and was caught up with what was going on with the whole best friend is my enemy thing.
I look up and down the flight stairs to how far we had to go but to see Kimber at the bottom of the flight of stairs, we were that close to the bottom huh. We pack up the radio equipment and continue heading down to meet up with Kimber and talk about what we are to do about this weird situation we have been put in to and another question that I have never bothered to ask about it, but how in the hell did we fit the whole team in the room, you know I have learnt not to ask questions but accept what has happened, back on topic damn it.

While I was having that little talk to myself we had managed to reach the bottom and when that was achieved I had a lot of people surrounding me eager to ask questions about what is going on, I think, ‘Captain, who is the girl that has come and dropped by and what the hell is up, what are not heading home yet’ I presume is going to be said. “Kimber where is he I saw him here not long ago” one of the soldiers points towards a room that looks to be a staff room “in there with winters and the lady, we won’t ask questions about why she is here but knowing you sir in the short time that we have been with you it is something private so we won’t ask questions” one of them had said if I remember correctly his name is Jammie Thor or S Pvt, Thor (Second class Private). the others look towards me and nod hearing what he had said, it is nice knowing that they know when a bad time and not so bad time is to inquire about stuff.
“Thank you, Thor for showing me where the others are and not questioning about why she is her continue to stay on guard half of the team head upstairs and other half down here, remember basic patrol procedures” they all nodded and left without a thought, I headed towards the room and entered seeing that Kimber set up a basic set up for a plan room, table, small scale maps, one larger map, papers and chairs, oh and don’t forget markers as well.
With all of that set up and ready to use time for us to plan for many hours if we can do that, now I am getting the feeling that some people in high command when they find this out about how we were surrounded they are going to ask the question of ‘why did you guys not just attack them’ well if I were to get that response it I would have to answer with is that the people who operate under the prime mister and government receive training that involves a system that is so advanced that it makes it feel real but not as it is a artificial system, but it works some how they gain more experience that would take a soldier in teams of high command years to acquire yet they gain it in a month or so, it is an understatement to call them the best of last lights capabilities as they far surpass those words.
If they are deployed here though I can only imagine the worst.
Location: High Command Emergency HQ
Sector: Unknow
“Jackson we are in deep shit if UTC, Thorn is in contact with the governments soldiers!” yelled SCC, Port (Senior Combat Commander a rank bellow High Combat Commander) bursting into the room, “Yes I know this Port that is why I have called everyone who is in on the plan so we can get him out of that situation” I calmly explain to him, he rushes to seat near ECM, Lashorn (Elite Combat Manger).
“Now that everyone is hear we are going to proceed with the plan earlier than expected due to one of the commanders are in trouble at this moment, I need you all to gather people who are loyal to us in 4 hours and head to the governments quarters, governments office and training academy as well, me, port and Lashorn will head to prime ministers headquarters and raid it” I look down and breath out heavily and look back up “any questions or worries” all in the room stand “No, soon to be military ruler Jackson!”
