Chapter Five - Some sort of a Plan
"So change the codes." Mike stated the obvious, and I admit for a second that was my thought but then, it would be obvious to them that they would have done it already as soon as they realised.
"We can't. Cerberus was designed as a self contained, total isolation system. The only way to change the code is physically on the computer itself, which is located in the presidents bunker." One of the top guys answered and there we had it, the catch to everything.
"So now we know why they wanted Connor." I voice.
"The President will hold out as long as he can. But if they get his son, if they hurt him, nobody could hold out under those circumstances. So find Connor and get him the hell out of there." we were ordered
"Yes Sir." We replied ending the call
"Lock and load." I breathe
-----
We took small sections giving the clear till me we made it to Lincoln's bedroom." I held the front while Mike found the secret door. Turning our Torches on we slowly made our way through the tunnels. I took a sharp right and found the person who gave me huge relief.
"Connor." I dropped down and hugged him. He saw Mike and he hugged the both of us. We pulled away.
"Shhh, you're okay now." I told him brushing his hair back.
"How are you doing?" You okay?" Mike questioned
"Yeah I'm alright." He whispered back holding on to me
"We see that this is still your favourite hiding place." Our friend smiled I got the phone and called in.
"We've got sparkplug." I whispered in the good news, it was a small weight lifted of a shitty situation. It would buy more time for the president once we got Connor out.
"Finally some good news." Lynne breathed
"He's safe we're bringing him out."
"What about my Dad?" he asked tearfully.
"You're Dad's gonna be fine. OK?" Connor nodded at Mike's words. "Nothing bad's gonna happen, we're gonna find him."
"Hey us three what are we?" I ask
"We're a team."
"That's right and we have each others backs." We heard the floorboard creek and Mike put his finger to his lips. I brought my gun out as Mike told us that we run in three. One finger, two fingers. Three...Run. They started shooting as we blindly shot back. I took the rear. We fell out into another room and I pointed a gun at one door.
"You okay?" Mike questioned.
"Yeah." We replied and got up.
"Alright let's get out of here. You ready to haul ass?" I ask the boy who give a shaky and frightened nod.
"Yeah." Connor nodded to both of us.
"Right stay between the two of us." I walked backward, keeping sight of behind us as Mike took the front, till we were out of the living quarters and to the escape route, which was in a disused basement.
"Jacobs. OK, we have sparkplug. He's coming out of the ventilation shaft on the northwest corner, ground floor. Have a green party waiting." Mike stated to the other side.
"We'll be there." I held onto Connor as Mike unscrewed the screws
"How are the two of you gonna fit through that, you're coming with me right." I turned him around
"We can't. We gotta go get your Dad. All right? Now listen you can do this, do you remember the chimney climb Mike taught you in the rose garden?" he nodded "Yeah? One foot against front wall one foot against the back. All the way to the top." I recalled
"Grace, I'm scared."
"Us too. But you're gonna get through it. I know you Connor, you have been to hell and back, anyone who survives that can do this." I sighed as Mike crouched down holding his badge up.
"You're one of us now." he handed Connor the badge and Connor fixed it on his shorts.
"We're counting on you kiddo"
"OK"
"Good man, all right let's go." Mike lifted him up and he got in.
"We'll see you on the other side." Connor started to climb up as I got my gun out ready.
"Sparkplug is on his way up." I heard some Comando's, they were hardly quiet about their approach or orders.
"Hostiles. Jacobs hold on." I gave Mike a look and he stuck his head through
"Connor, wait up." We hid and as the man looked up to Connor. Mike strangled him and broke his neck I went over and gave him the thumbs up.
"He's coming out Jacobs." I muttered and we waited, it felt like forever till we heard the words.
"Sparkplug received." I breathed a sigh of relief and gave a fist punch to my partner. That was too close, i craned my neck a little and resumed my composure.
"Good job, Banning and Carter. Now let's see if we can get the President out." Turnbull replied.
"Roger that." I cut off and looked at Mike.
"Integration?" I inquired tilting my head
"Yeah, but let me ask the questions. You're the braun." he answered
"Awh thank you." We made our way out and through the halls and found two Comanndos I fought one and twisted him around, so that his arm could brake if I added the right pressure. We pulled them into a room and tied them up. I sat looking at the knifes I had acquired
"OK, asshole. Yo, hey. Who's running the show?" they looked at each other amused as if they were mocking us.
"Oh, you speak english? They teach you were they come from? Cause you know what they teach us, how to extract information from people like you. But my partner well she's the best i've ever seen." I smiled at them leaning back. They started chuckling to each other. Mike joined in.
"It's funny, no, I get it. Crazy Carter." My eyes flickered up at him and he smiled I flicked my wrist and the knife lodged in this throat. I pulled it out and blood streamed from his neck.
"I liked your friend. He seemed like a funny guy, he had the fortune of a quick death, you won't be so lucky if she has anything to do with it. What's your leaders name?" Mike questioned as I rubbed the blood on the alive one jeans.
"Oh, I'm sorry here" He took his gag off
"How many men do you have." He started speaking in Korean I stabbed him in the balls as Mike muffled his scream.
"English." I state and he started squealing like a canary.
-------
"His name is Yeonsak Kang . He's head of the KUF. The paramilitary organisation. No surprises there, 40 commandos breeched the gate. 28 are left." I told the others on the other side of the phone call.
"How do we know we can trust this information?" Jacobs asked
"I asked really sweetly." I retorted Man on the other end confirmed that he was one of the most wonted terrorists in the world and other information, as well as other information and why he was so sought after .
"Look I don't care who he is. With a force that size, I have men who can sweep them out in short order." General Dickhead had to speak. I rolled my eyes and shook my head.
"Sir, this is not going to be a cakewalk. These sons of bitches are pretty fucking tough" My partner replied over the phone.
"I've got the toughest fucking guys in the world. What we need to know is how to get into that bunker" General dick retorted
"Awh that's so sweet you think that. I'd be impressed if you were such a fucking dumbass." Mike raised his eyebrow in my direction. i shrugged not caring, he always did it. He's been doing it for years.
"Once those doors are closed, you don't It's nuclear hardened. Now there used to be some old tunnels, but they were sealed up years ago." Lynne rebuffed to the General.
"Sir, your men need to know what they're dropping into. Don't launch anything till we do some recon. " Mike reasoned
"OK." We left and I held my gun up.
"That General really bugs the shit out of me." I grumble
"Agent Banning and Agent Carter." I looked around hearing who I presumed was Kang "Yes I know who you are. Welcome to my house." Mike brought out a mic
"Hey asshole, what took you so long?" he asked
"You're the two that let the first Lady die, no? And soon the president. Failure seems to be a habit with you two." I took the mic
"Well, maybe we owe you for giving us a chance for making that up today." I blew a stay hair out of my face
"I admire you for acknowledging your failure, Agent Carter. But there is no going back. Nothing you try and do here tonight can atone." he replied
"Yeah maybe not, but you can ask our boss that we have a thing for being great people at being a awesome pains in the ass. Fucking your shit up is a pretty good start." Mike said and I smirked
"You may wanna take a head count, bodies are piling up." I added
"I have more than enough men to finish the mission."
"Oh and by the way if your looking for Connor, he's on his way to the baseball game." I continued keeping my wits about me and checking the area.
"How's your wife Michael? Leah. She's a nurse. And your Mother, Grace. Annabelle who is a teacher." I gritted my teeth. My mother maybe a pain but she's my pain. "They save and nurture lives. Too bad they can't save yours."
"You know what, why don't we play a game of fuck off you first." he ended the conversation.
"I'm gonna scout ahead you stay back and cover the rear." I stated
(banning and forbes)
I heard the sound of fighting from behind me so I turned back around and headed back, when I got there Mike was Fighting with Dave Forbes, a past secret serive agent.
"He's with them." Mike shouted noticing me mid fight and I nodded throwing a knife into Forbes's leg, he yells in pain, dropping to the ground
"You OK?" i asked reaching him.
"Yeah." We knelt down in front of our former comrade turned traitor, who whimpered at the blade in him.
"Why did you sell out man?" I questioned
"Fuck, you two. Fuck, I lost my way." Mike pulled the coms from one of the pockets.
"Well you can make up for it now. Tell Kang we're dead. And help us save the president." he switched it on and nodded to the former Agent, hoping he would do the right thing
"Kang, it's Forbes. I got them. All clear." he lied finally doing the right thing.
"Good." he cut off and put it away.
"Catch up when your done, it's all clear." I stood up and turned around.
"Carter." I turned back hearing Forbes "Still the best shot eh?" he grunted in amusement I turned back not answering him properly but muttering under my breath.
"You bet your ass." I waited for Mike to catch up when he did we made our way to the roof.
