Dead or Alive (closed)

[BlueEyedLady]

Meena's face registered her disbelief at Jerico's part in her parent's murder. By the time he was done telling the tale, her face was set in anger and her jaw was clenched so much it hurt. Her eyes were dark and pained and her heart beat fast in her throat.

When he was done, she slowly picked up the gun he had thrown on the bed, checked the ammo and then brought it up aimed at his heart. Squeezing the trigger smoothly, she fired....swinging the gun up and over his shoulder at the last minute to hit a picture handing on the wall directly behind him. The glass shattered and the frame fell to the ground with a crash.

Standing, she handed the gun back to him and said,"There. I used the bullet that was ment for you. Now we can have that out of the way and you wont have to worry about getting it in the back at some later time. But you damn well better fill that fucking gun to the hilt for when I met Furious because he is going to feel every damn one of them."

Her eyes were sparkling with tears now as she looked up at him. "Now, Jerico Unix, let me tell you a tale. When I became a reporter one of my first assignments was to research a story on a man that claimed to be Jerico Unix. He was with the Syndicate and his MO was exactly the same as the legendary man he claimed he was. The only problem was Jerico Unix was dead. Everyone knew it. Rumors went around that Unix's death was faked and now the Syndicate was using him once again."

"Like I said, I hadn't made a name for myself yet in the reporting business and, wanting to impress my editor, I did a whole hell of alot of research. I spent six weeks reviewing and comparing cases known to be linked with Unix and the man who now called himself that. I found one thing that in all the back cases I reviewed. Never and I mean never were innocents killed. Destruction of property and items that the Syndicate would be interested in missing but no deaths. Not even in cases where testimony could have hurt the Syndicate. It was just made so that the testimony couldn't stand without the evidence that was now missing. Any deaths that had been recorded were of those who were in war with the Syndicate or those who turned on the Syndicate. In fact, in a few cases some people claimed that Mr Unix rescued them after they had wandered unknowingly into a dangerous situation during his assignments. That last never made the papers, no one wanted Unix looking like a hero instead of a villian and, when I presented my story...it was trashed as nonsense and reassigned."

Tears were streaming down her face now, the sorrow that she had not been able to let go of coming out,"So, you see, Jerico, I have no choice but to believe you because I know more than anyone out there what you are and are not capable of."

Jericho

He didnt even flinch as the bullet ripped his cloak on his shoulder, he was more surprised that it didnt hit him. He took a bullet out of the clip and he picked the gun up and loaded it into the chamber of the gun and he handed it to you.

"There take another shot, I know you want to kill me. You may think your stories are correct, but they are not, I was with the Syndicate for a long time. And I have killed many innocent people, but than I changed, I didnt want to kill people that did nothing any more, I didnt even want to kill the bad people, cause I belive in the saying, No one has the right to take the life of another, and I go by that. Those clones, they need to die, they are only made for killing, so I will destroy them all. But, I know you are mad at me, and you have to belive me that I did not want to kill your father, it was Furious that set me up. And you will not be able to handle Furious, if we ever run into him, I will take him, I am the only one that can fight him. If you or anyone else fights him, than you shall die, but I already died, and I only came back for one purpose and that is to send Furious to hell."

He looked to you and he took the gun back from you and he held it to his head, and he pulled the hammer back.

"So if you want me dead than say so, and I will pull this trigger, but I want you to know that I love you, I have loved you since the first instant I saw you. I knew you were the one, so make your choice now, cause it was I that dropped the match, so I am willing to give my life to you."

He stood ready for your answer and you saw he would do it to.

 

[BlueEyedLady]

Meena stood looking at him, when she spoke it was in sharp tones. "It seems I didn't do as much research as I thought. I must have only researched the last cases you did before you quit."

She shook her head at him and added,"If you want to pull that trigger, it wont be because I tell you to. If you're that guilty about what Furious tricked you into doing and if you think I can't believe your story and hate you for what he was responsible for than that is your decision."

"I had my one shot at you. It missed. If you want to make sure that it hits you than fine. If the only reason you are alive right now is because of Furious than what is left for me when he is gone? Do what you want, Jerico. But don't ever tell me what I am feeling or what I want to do. If I tell you that I don't blame you and that I believe you for whatever reason...than I am telling you the truth. If I say I don't want to kill you than you damn well better know I don't want to fucking kill you."

Turning on her heel, she walked out the door, pushing by Red, Green, Blue and Black who had all come running afer the first bullet was fired.

"When you can find some faith in me having faith in you, Jerico Unix, than come find me and we'll talk."

Walking out the door, she went down to the lake again to sit by it and think and wait to see what Jerico would do.

Jericho

He only shook his head after she walked away, he put the gun down and put the clip back in and holstered the gun. Why was she like this, what could possibly be going through her head, he didnt know. He thought that she might be planning on taking him out at a later time, but he knew he would not lie dead till Furious was dead. But he was still worried that Meena might do something stupid, now that she knew what happened, she could go after Furious, but she would never make it past the first floor guards. He didnt know what to do, he looked out the window and saw her walking towards the lake, he than looked to the team and shook his head again.

"Nothing happened."

He ran past them and quickly he caught up with Meena and he looked down to her.

"I am sorry for what happened, you must truly belive me. In my past, when I first joined the Syndicate, I was only a young boy, they trained me to be a killer, so that is when I killed for pleasure, and I was good at it, but when I got older and I had a mind of my own, I realized that was not right and I didnt like it as much as I thought I did. So I learned from my mistakes and learned not to kill the innocent, that is what Furious did for me, he killed them all, he never listened to my lessons of peace, he only craved the blood. So I have told you my life story, and I want to add this in, you dont have to be this wannabe hard ass bitch around here, I would like to call you my lover, and I would hope you could say the same, so you dont have to prove anything to me or anyone. And for Furious, I wont let you look at him, he is the Devil himself, and I am the only one that can stop him love. So please dont go off and look for him, cause you will only be walking into hell and trapping yourself there. And I dont want to have to see that happen to you, I dont want to have to go and save you every ten seconds."

With that said he smiled at you, and he put his arm around you and he pulled you in close to him and he kissed you on the forehead.

"I love you Meena."

 

[BlueEyedLady]

Meena could have screamed in frustration. What was it about him that made him so hard headed that he couldn't listen to what she was saying? Instead of screaming, however, she began to bang her head on his chest and talking to him at the same time, punctuating her sentences with the movement of her head.

"Why...can't...you believe...that I...believe...you?" She said said through gritted teeth. Stopping her head banging, she looked up at him. "I believe you didn't mean to kill my family. I believe it was Furious' fault and I believe that if you tell me one more time that you want me to believe you when I have already said more than once that I do that I am going to take something hard to your head and knock some sense into you."

She sighed and shook her head. "And I am not a wannabe hard ass. That is who I am. That is who I am because, like you, that is how I survive. But that doesn't mean I don't love you, Jerico, because I do. With all my heart and I wish you would believe me on that account."

Linking her arms around his neck, she said,"Yes, I am your lover, yes I am your woman and, yes, I am the only woman for you because I am the only woman who would even think of putting up with you being such a jackass. But that does not mean that I won't go after Furious, Jerico. He killed my family. I have devoted my life to uncovering assholes like him and making them pay for their crimes and I don't intend to back down now that I am faced with the ultimate asshole of all."

Giving him a quick kiss on the lips, she said,"Now, you can either take me in as part of the team or you can follow me in and have to save my ass a million times when I go in myself. It's up to you. And don't even THINK of using that damn neutrilzer on me because if you do I will shove it so far up your ass you will be walking funny for weeks."

 

[amon_darknight]

Jericho

He listened to every word she spoke, some were harsh and some were of care.

“Its hard to believe someone about something when it comes to a subject such as this one. True Furious set me up, but still it was I that lit the match and dropped it. I never want to hear the words of its ok, cause it is not. When I take care of Furious, my life will end as well, for the sins I have commited, I was only brought back to this life for Furious, cause I am the only one that can take his life. If you enter this battle, he will only use you against me and make me weak. Trust me love, you have no idea of what Furious is capable of. I will let you join the team, but only as my lover, I don’t want to see you in any battles are anything, just kick back in the car and everything will be fine.”

With that being said he let you go and walked off to a tree and stood underneath it.

“Meena I am sorry, I just don’t want to see you get hurt or see anymore blood shed. I will not kill the innocent, but I will take the lives of those that protect Furious. A lot of those Syndicate people still recognize me and know that I am the true leader… no wait I am no leader.”

He slapped himself for saying that and he turned to her.

“You would never be able to hit me, ill tell you what.”

He handed his handguns to you with a full clip and he walked 10 feet away.

“If you can kill me, than you can kill Furious.”

He looked to her and smiled.

“I do not want you to even think of going after Furious. Stop thinking of it, lets just think about love and you. Now kill me if you can. Here take this.”

He tossed a knife to her.

“I will even give you a melee weapon since Furious uses a Katana. Lets see what you can do.”

 

[BlueEyedLady]

Meena shook her head as she looked at the weapons in her hands. Walking back to Jerico, she handed them back to him. Shaking her head she crossed her arms stubbornly.

"No," She said simply, not raising her voice,"I won't kill you, I won't even try. You are not Furious and when did you hear from me that it was alright that you had a hand in killing my family? You owe me for that one, big, and you will let me on the team as a full and active team memeber because you do owe me."

Her jaw hardening, she said,"And if all you are living for is to kill Furious than there can be nothing between us. If your hate for him is stronger than your love for me, if you can find reason to live so you can kill him but cannot find a reason to live because you love me...than, Jerico, we cannot be together. I cannot lose you to Furious anymore than you can lose me to that madman. I will not mourn your death because you couldn't find the strength you needed in our love."

There was a look of infinite sadness in her face and her throat almost closed up on her as she thought of losing Jerico. No matter the outcome of this battle, she would lose him. And she couldn't face that.

"And if you are going to die anyway than you may as well let me fight and die as well because I won't live without you."

 

[amon_darknight]

“Look Meeana, when the time comes when I face Furious to the death, there will be no winner, for we both will fall. I have seen the outcome already in an Indians powers. There is no other way for me. Yes I do have feelings for you and you have to believe me in that, but my anger and hatred comes first. If something comes before that, than I am left weak and venerable.”

He looked to her and put his weapon away.

“I am sorry this is how it is, but my anger and hatred fuels me. It is what keeps me going. I don’t sleep because of it. I know it’s a cold hearted things to say and do, but that is my hell love. You are an angel here in hell trying to guide me to the light, but I wont follow and don’t get in my way. I wont tell you where Furious is and I am the only one that knows, no one else knows, cause the rest of the team knows there role and once I go after him, they go there separate ways from me. You have no choice but to live with out me, cause it will happen, if I have to nerulize you I will, don’t get me wrong. I will let you travel beside me, but come battle time I want you gone, you don’t have the experience nor, the heart to kill. And I don’t want to see you do that. Stay free and stay happy don’t come to my side of life and end of hating it like it did.”

He smiled and he turned and walked off down the dark road from the cabin.

 

[BlueEyedLady]

Meena's temper flared and she marched up to Jerico, standing in front of him and not moving.

"I don't have the heart to kill? Who was it that blew up all the SUVs and the helicopter not to mention the motorcycles that were chasing us? What you mean is that I don't have the heart to kill you. But that doesn't mean I don't have the heart to kick your ass if you go on with that attitude!"

Poking a finger into his chest, she railed on. "I know a thing or two about Indian Visions and I know that they don't predict the future...they simply give you a future that COULD BE. It is a forewarning and nothing else. The vision told you what would happen IF you tried to take Furious alone. In the vision, I bet you didn't see anyone there helping you. Well, guess again! 'Cause me and the guys are going to be on your tail the whole time and we will make sure that an alternative vision comes true. And you can yell, kick and scream about it all day long but you have no choice in the matter. All of us would die for you and you know it but if we work together I am betting that none of us has to."

With a curt nod, she turned to leave up the trail and then whirled around to add,"I love you and I don't intend to lose you. And not even you or some vision can change my mind!"

 

[amon_darknight]

He looked to her and shook his head.

“That was not a real kill, have you ever stood point blank and taken someone’s life. You don’t have the heart. What you killed out there, that is not a real life, that is a fucking clone. You could have the heart to kill me. After the fact I am going to tell you right now, you will have the heart than. Your heart and soul will fill with hatred and anger, vengeance and justice.”

He looked to her and lowered his head.

“Meena, Meena Lawernce. Furious and myself are the same, we are killers, demons of war. We are meant for nothing more than the act of bloodshed.”

He looked to you and wanted to just walk away, but he didn’t, he stood his ground and he put his hands to your shoulders.

“Meena, this battle between Furious and myself is for us only, you cannot help, nor can the team. They understand there roles in this and do not try and tell them otherwise, they will not listen. Please Meena, if you help in this battle, he will only use you against me and weaken me that way. Please respect my wishes.”

He looked deep in your eyes and soon he was pressing his lips to yours and kissing you with passion.

“I love you Meena, and I think you have no idea of Indian Visions, unless you get one yourself. Now lets go and get some rest.”

He again kissed you and you felt his hands grab at your firm ass.

 

[BlueEyedLady]

Meena melted in his arms for a moment and then stiffened until he lifted his head. Glaring at him in anger, she pushed him back, taking him by surprise and causing him to stumble.

"Fine," She said through gritted teeth,"If this thing between you and Furious is so damn important that you can't accept help and if the love you say you have for me doesn't inspire you to try to live than I am wasting my breath."

Turning on her heels, she headed down the road going from the cabin where she knew he had left the bike earlier.

"I am going home. Back to my nice sane life and my nice chaotic job. And if the damn Syndicate or the Revolt kill me than who cares? Sure as hell not you. At this point I hope I do get jumped and silenced. At least then you would know how it feels to have the person you love torn from you."

"Good-bye, Jerico," She threw over her shoulder,"And don't try any of your tricks to make me stay. No matter what you do I will find a way back somehow. And don't worry about me telling anyone of you. I won't. I at least love you that much."

With a lift of her head and a straight back, she headed toward the bike and a way home.

 

[amon_darknight]

wrong one hehe

 

[amon_darknight]

He watched her move away and gives him a angry look.

“It is not a waste of breath, nor is this a waste of time. Don’t you just want to spend the time we have together now, rather than leave? I will not stop you, for you do what you think you have to do. If you want to leave, than that is fine by me. Love is a harsh reality.”

He watched her walk away and head towards the bike.

“Hey Meena you forgot the keys, and don’t be surprised when you go back and find your life destroyed.”

Soon he heard the sound of the engine bike roar and speed away.

“Good bye Meena Lawrence. You are now in my past. It is for your own good. Blue, I want you to take Red with you and follow her, the rest of you, pack up and leave. I will meet you at point Z, if I am not there tomorrow, do not come looking for me. Do you got that right, you have 4 mins to get out of here. DO IT NOW!”

The team scrambled, they had no choice but to listen, Red and Blue moved out and began to follow Meena, Blue had her moving quick on his wrist computer, but Blue never let anyone get away. Soon Red pulled up with two bikes and they were off.

Jericho looked and saw them go off and than he saw the car pull away with the rest of the team.

“Thanks team, I will see you tomorrow… I hope.”

He than cocks his guns and gets ready for what he had sensed,

“Furious you finally come to fight, but you bring an army to fight it for you. Fucking coward.”

A man equal height to a little taller than Jericho steps from the darkness wearing a black trench coat with black button up shirt and black pants, his hair was long and white and he carried a Katana with Japanese writing on it, he had evil eyes and he stared at Jericho with hatred.

Furious: “You dare call me a coward with you hiding from me, when we are destined to fight. I killed you years ago and now you come back from the grave. Face it, I am the only one that can kill you and I wont kill you here, I will wipe out your team first and that woman you travel with, I can tell she means something to you.”
Jericho: “Don’t you dare, we settle this now!”

Jericho stood ready and drew his handguns and he had determination in his eyes and a fire was burning hot in his body.
Jericho: “NOW DIE FURIOUS!”

He charged at Furious, but someone stepped in his way and had a gun drawn on him.

Jericho: “Jin…”
Jin: “Yes Jericho, I cannot allow you to battle my leader.”
Jericho: “No Jin, GET OUT OF THE WAY!”

He again took a mighty step forward and there was a shot of a gun and Jericho fell to his knees first and than hit the ground. The last thing Jericho heard was Furious.

Furious: “You were not needed here, mark him with the symbol. Do not kill him, we have work to do.”



Soon Jericho barely woke and he could not move, he was in the air and he felt pain in his wrists and on his neck, felt sharp stinging poking into him and saw that he was pinned to a S cross of some kind, probably the symbol of Furious. He was bound to the cross by barb wire and he was bleeding from his writs and his neck and ankles. He was beaten down pretty bad and knew he could not get down, at least not now. He let out a scream of hatred and yelled out Furious’s name. He saw he had no gunshot wounds and wondered about that and knew they used tranquilizers.

“There mocking me.. Damn you Furious, I will get you.”

 

[BlueEyedLady]

Meena rode like a bat out of hell. She knew that if she wiped out it would be a very bad thing for she had no helmet or protective equiptment on but she didn't care. She had things to do and she had to do them now! She silently thanked her father for showing her several tricks, like how to hot wire anything with a motor, and sped on.

She arrived at Gary's, her editor's, house several hours later. Parking the bike she stalked up the walk and banged on the door. A grumbling voice answered and she could hear footsteps coming to the door. Moments later Gary stood in the doorway, peering out at her.

"What the hell do you..." He began and then his eyes went wide and he gasped. "Meena! My God! Where have you been? You've been reported dead! Your apartment, hell the whole block was destroyed. When you didn't report in after that last time, which was mysteriously cut short, by the way, everyone assumed you had been killed. Hell, Girl, you're memorial service is in two days!"

Shouldering her way past her editor, Meena stepped into the hallway to see a startled Laurie, Gary's wife. Ignoring Gar y's concerns and not even trying to explain where she had been or what she had been doing for the last few days, Meena nodded to her.

"I need a shower and to borrow some of your clothes, Laurie," She said to the other woman. To Garry she said,"And I need to borrow your computer and phone."

As Laurie hurried off to get what she needed, Meena headed out the back door. "Meena!" She could hear Gary bellow in the background what the hell is going on?!"

Ignoring him, she made her way to the back yard, vaulted the fence and headed down the alley to circle around the block. Turning the corner out of the alley she saw what she thought she would. Blue and Green on bikes casing the house. Blue seemed to be trying to get ahold of somebody via his headset.

"Jerico!" She could hear him say urgently under his breath, his whole concentration on trying to raise his leader,"I said we have followed her to an address on Cyprus street. Jerico! Damn you, answer me!"

Meena's heart plunged. Something had happened to Jerico. Trying to ignore the churning of her stomach at the thought, Meena came up besides Blue and placed a hand on his shoulder. Blue jumped and whirled around as best as he could on the bike, staring at her. He wasn't usually so inattentive and Meena knew he was worried about Jerico.

"Furious has him," Meena said, knowing, somehow that it was true. "Listen, both of you. We are going to get Jerico out of this whether he likes it or not. But I need you to help."

Blue shook his head. "Meena, you don't know Jerico. He won't accept help on this even if we all took him down and twist his arm. He won't let any of us near this thing."

Meena's eyes flashed. "Now look here," She said, her voice tight,"I don't plan on asking him if I can help. He is getting my help whether he wants it or not! But I need your help. And you ARE going to help me." Her glare did not give them room to argue.

"Now, here is how it is going to go down. I need you, Blue, to go and find a Shaman. Hopefully the same Shaman that raised him before but I am sure if you can't find that one you will find a suitable substitute."

At their startled looks that she would know how Jerico was raised. With a snort she gave a short explanation. "Jerico said that he had had a vision while visiting the indians. I put two and two together and came up with the only explanation of how he survived death the last time."

"Get the Shaman and have him ready for after this thing is over. Jerico may be hell bent to get killed but I am just as determined not to let him stay that way. And when I do raise him this time, it may be ME who makes sure the great Jerico Unix stays six feet underground!" Both Blue and Red tried to hide smiles at this. They knew well enough Meena wouldn't kill Jerico even if she did feel like it at times.

"Second, get ahold of Green and have the van and a good supply of weapons ready for me. I am going in after Jerico. I don't know if I will find him alive or just his body but I know that I am going to find him one way or another."

As the two men nodded and prepared to leave, Meena added,"Oh, and wire me up so I am in contact with you. I will let you know what is going on and when I need you."

Blue sighed and reached into some pockets to pull out the needed equiptment. "You know, Meena, if Jerico hears about us helping you do this he is going to kill US."

Meena smiled and placed a kiss on Blue's cheek. "I'll make sure that I keep the Shaman in reserve just in case."

Not long after that she was back in Gary's house ignoring the frustrated exclamations of her editor, showered and changed and sitting at the computer searching for an answer to where Furious might be.

Several hours later she hit paydirt. Speaking into her headphone, she said,"Blue! I think I have it. I traced Furious' known activities and the pattern seems to indicate a mansion in the country. It's almost a fortress. Was built for a well known actress who had an aversion to meeting the public. That's where we will find Furious and Jerico. I'm headed there now. Meet me outside with the van. I'll get my weapons on the way."

Standing and turning the computer off, she headed for the back door again. "Hold on, Meena!" Came Gary's voice behind her and soon he had caught up to her. "You can't go without explaining what is happening! I want to know!"

Turning around and giving him an open stare, she shook her head. "No, Gary, no, you don't." And she shook off his hand and headed out the back way to the van and Jerico's rescue. Whether or not he wanted it.

However, once in the van, she had a shocking surprise. Blue, who had contantly been trying to raise Jerico, turned to her and said,"He is still at the cabin. He hasn't moved and he isn't responding. I can still pick up his life signs but I get a bad feeling about this."

Meena gave a quick nod and slid into the seat, buckling it. "Then we go to the cabin. We know a possible place where Furious is and we can check that out later."

It took them less time to get to the cabin than it had to get back to town. Of course Green, who was driving, cut a few curbs and took some shortcuts Meena had never heard about. Once they arrived at the cabin a horrible sight met their eyes. Jerico was there and his condition was none too good. Meena was out of the van like a shot and over to Jerico's side.

"Cut him down!" She yelled at Blue, concern shadowing her features,"Cut him down now and get him into the cabin. We have to make sure he's allright!"

 

[amon_darknight]

Jericho was barely able to open his eyes, he only thought of how Furious just wanted to toy with him. Using tranquilzers to put him down instead of really killing him. Jericho went to his thoughts and fell back to the time when he was in the syndicate, he remembered that he and Furious were like brothers, always watching each others backs and helping each other. But when Furious found out that Jericho was to be the new leader of the Syndicate cause he was the favorite of the old boss, that drove Furious to insanity and he soon set Jericho up and killed him. Jericho kept thinking of why he would do something like this, what was going through his mind, Jericho was not the leader and Furious was now, why keep this hatred up, than Jericho mentally slapped himself for thinking that way. He just now knew that this was his time to suffer, he had to stop Furious some how, but for now he had to think of how to get down. He soon passed out from the loss of blood.

With Meena

As soon as the team got to the cabin Blue saw what had happened here. He saw the cross and saw Jericho up there. His heart just about stopped and he almost stopped breathing.

Blue: “Jer…”

He was snapped back tot reality when he heard Meena yell to cut him down and he was soon at the cross and looking it over, suddenly you heard another voice come from the trees.

Black: “If I were you, I wouldn’t touch that cross, as you can see Blue, it is wired with explosives, get him down and we all die. Believe me, I have been thinking of a way to get him down, but there is explosives wired all the way to the house. I got here soon after they left. They gave him a beat down.
Blue: “Well lets defuse it and get him the hell down, he is the boss.”
Black: “It isn’t as simple as that, I have never seen anything like that. Here let me show you.”
Blue: “Show me than.”

The two of them walk over and they look at one of the many triggers and they both fall over. The rest of the team made sure the perimeter was safe.

Blue: “Don’t touch anything Meena, its rigged with explosives. Jericho will be fine, I have his vitals on my wrist comp, he is holding up, just unconscious. We will figure something out. I promise Meena. Don’t go in the house either, in fact stay with Green. I don’t want to be caught off guard. Please stay with him.”

They went back to looking the trigger over and trying to figure out what the hell this was. Green walked over to you and put his hand on your shoulder.

Green: “It will be alright, Jericho has been through worse, there was the time when he got captured on Mars and got dissected. He will be fine. Why do you want to find a Shaman for, do you want a reading, for him to tell you what he sees in the future, that is what Jericho did. I don’t believe in those things. I heard you say things about a Shaman bringing him back to life, well I don’t think anyone knows what happened, Jericho never has said anything about that. But I know a Indian Shaman didn’t bring him back, well at least I don’t think one did. You should ask him when he is better. Don’t worry.”

He smiled at her and held her shoulders.

 

[BlueEyedLady]

Meena knocked Green's hands from her shoulders and walked up real close to him, poking him in the chest.

"Don't you fucking tell me not to be worried! I don't give a shit what he has been through. I am only concerned with what he is going through now! Now you listen up and you listen good, Mister...if you can't diffuse the damn bomb than you sure in hell better find someone who can! And why I got the Shaman is my own business...I am a reporter and a damn good one at that. I can track down ANY information if I have a starting point and the Shaman is the starting point..."

Turning to the others, she glared at them. "Okay, guys, here is what my ultimatum is. You stop treating me like a child who doesn't know shit and I won't go ballistic on your asses. You find a way to get Jerico down from there within 24 hours or I am going after Furious myself...and don't think I don't mean it and don't think I can't do it. I think you better start working on it, and I think you better start working on it now."

Green stepped back when he saw the fire in your eyes. And he without a thought put his hand to his gun handle, but he quickly remembered who you were and what was going on.

“I am sorry Meena, but I am only telling you that Jericho is a very strong person and this meager incident is nothing compared to other things he has gotten into. You might be a good reporter, but are you sane enough to realize that there is enough Semtex here to take out 8 city blocks, I didn’t think you knew that. So you just need to chill and maybe if you are that good at getting information, you can help us with the defuse.”

He looked her in the eyes and he had a cold look on his face.

“And what the hell does a Shaman have to do with anything, why do you want to waste the time with a Shaman, you are probably the type to not believe in those kinds of things. Hell I don’t believe in them either.”

The tension was getting thick as Green didn’t want to let Jericho down, by letting her go after Furious alone. The team knew there role in that and that was to get Jericho there and than leave him be, but now there was Meena who wanted to join in on the team and help to kill Furious, but she will not be allowed to get into that. She thought she knew where Furious was, but Blue already knew that she was wrong in her information, he might have slipped her some wrong info and Green was only laughing in his mind about that. Blue was a very resourceful guy, to smart for his own being, the only other one on the team other than Jericho that might know where the lair of Furious could be Blue, but Green doubted that he did. Jericho didn’t want anyone getting killed over his expense, so he would go in alone. Green was deep in thought and he looked to Meena getting pretty angry.

Green: “If we fuck with this bomb and do it wrong, we all die. That is it plain and simple. We are doing all we can to defuse the bomb, and you are not helping the sitiuation. So if you could just chill out and stop acting like a child, we can get back to work. You know what Meena, I believe that Jericho means more to us than he does to you, since you are just using him to get to Furious it seems. Do as he wishes and stay out of this, just like us, we follow orders. Jericho can handle himself and he will do what he will do. If you go and hunt down Furious, you will only be forcing Jericho to weaken himself to help you. He needs to release his full power, you have seen nothing of what he can do, he is not normal, hell I don’t even like talking about it, it gives me the heebie jebbies, but we are working on getting him down, it will just take time. Please don’t do anything stupid.”

He walked away and headed towards Blue, leaving Meena to her thoughts. He walked right up next to Blue and looked back to see that Meena was not following or trying to listen in.

Green: “Blue, she believes that she knows of the location of the Syndicate, she intends to leave and face Furious on her own, but you were smart in doing what you did, but we need a plan so if she does leave.”
Blue: “Don’t worry Green, I have everything under control, the bikes are under my comp control and will not leave this area, she will get as far as 20 feet away and if she decides to walk or run, use these.”

He handed 2 clips of rifle bullets that had needles at the end and Green looked to Blue with confusion in his eyes.

Green: “What do you want me to do, shoot her?”
Blue: “Don’t play stupid, they are tranq shots and they fit your sniper rifle, even if you miss, they explode if they hit a solid matter and leak a gas that will make her pass out. It will put her out for a day or two. So don’t worry, I have the perimeter on a net so she wont go anywhere with out me knowing, she is bugged. She wont find them either, I am just to good, if she does find it, just trust me. She underestimates my brain power. Now lets get the boss down and get the hell out of here. Keep an eye on her, I don’t need you here. Here don’t forget this.”

He picked up his case and tossed it to Green which contained his sniper rifle, well one of them.

Blue: “We will get this defused.”

Green just walked off and took his rifle out and assembled it and loaded it, he kept his eye on Meena and smiled at her.

Green: “Everything will be fine, don’t worry, just chill and take a load off.”
