Chapter 30 - Concussion


Previously In International Agents:

The guards lifted him up and Pepe started slowly walking out. He turned his head to have one last look at Natalie but as he turned it back to the door he looked upwards and caught my eye. In a split second I saw his face turn from surprise back to his stone cold glare which he gave to the guards.

I'm sorry my friend.

As he left another guard came rushing in.

"Natalie? she is ready!" he said panting like the mutt that he is.

"Excellent! bring her in, I shall enjoy this." she smiled and I had a sudden realisation.

I swallowed sharply as I saw how weak she looked as she was dragged in by the guards.

My heart broke slightly as she let out a small cry.

It was Elizabeth.

My Elizabeth.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Pierre's POV*

The throbbing pain in my skull was enough to turn a sane man mad. I forced open my eyes, breaking the crust that had formed over them and looked around the room. My head was completely Rigid and I couldn't move my body at all, only my eyes.

A fluorescent blast of light filled the space and reflected off of the white walls making the room look like an operating room. There were no windows, no form of natural light to keep any person sane, It was a death trap. To my left side I could just make out the silhouette of a handle so that is what I assumed was the only exit.

I took in a deep breath to clear my thoughts and the sickening smell of fresh blood filled my nostrils to the point where I felt physically sick. I looked in front of me and realised that Giovanni had been staring at me the whole time, blinking ferociously.

He seemed to be in the same contraption that I was in. A large metal restraint that was set vertical on the wall. There were straps made from what looked like another form of metal but I was too weak to move.

As soon as I tried to open my mouth a salty liquid was sprayed into my throat and it stung so much that I could only get relief from refusing to speak. I looked back up at Giovanni who gave me a sympathetic expression which tells me that he had already tried to speak.

I studied his face and was shocked at his appearance. He had a large gash on his forehead that must have been fresh as it still looked wet. I dreaded to think what I looked like.

Again, Giovanni began blinking at me, this time adding in a few Winks as well. I was confused as it looked like he was trying to flirt but had a nervous twitch at the same time.

I just looked at him blankly and I could see he was getting slightly frustrated at my lack of understanding. Once again he repeated the same sequence.

I racked my brains until I finally understood. wink. Blink. The wink is the dot and the Blink is the dash.

Morse code.

Giovanni repeated the same sequence again.

-- --- .-. ... . -..-. -.-. --- -.. .

"Morse code" he blinked.

I replied.

.. -..-. ..- -. -.. . .-. ... - .- -. -.. -..-. - .... .- - -....- -..-. .- .-. . -..-. -.-- --- ..- -..-. .- .-.. .-. .. --. .... - ..--..

"I understand that. Are you alright?"

.--- ..- ... - -..-. .- -..-. ..-. . .-- -..-. ... -.-. .-. .- - -.-. .... . ... -....- -..-. - .... . -.-- -..-. .--- ..- ... - -..-. - --- --- -.- -..-. .--. . .--. . .-.-.-

"Just A few Scratches. They took Pepe." An expression of anger just washed over his face.

I replied with,

.... . -..-. .-- .- ... -..-. .... . .-. . -....- -..-. .-- .... . .-. . -..-. .. ... -..-. . .-.. .. --.. .- -... . - .... -..-. .- -. -.. -..-. .- -.. .-. .. .--- .- -.

"He was Here? Where is Elizabeth and Adrijan?".

I saw him raise his eyebrows as best he could as if to say I don't know.

We were getting know where with this communication and my eyes were starting to ache.

Through are silent actions I heard some mumbling outside the door and footsteps that became increasingly louder.

"Hurry up and open the door. This hombre weighs a tonne man!"

Suddenly the handle moved and two guards came in, dragging a spluttering Pepe behind them. His hands were in cuffs and his feet were tied. They guards said something in Spanish and pushed him into the cell and locked the door.

I Looked up at Giovanni who was looking worried for Pepe.

"That was Nasty Man!" he coughed as he tried to get a better look as his surroundings. I was surprised that He could talk.

He looked up at me an a Grin was plastered in his face.

"So glad that sleeping beauty has finally awoken."

I smirked slightly but stayed silent.

"Oh that's right, You guys can't talk. huh." said a confused Pepe as if he had just had an epiphany.

"Well like I explained to Vanni over there, I looked up and the spray hit me in the chin."

I peered at Giovanni and Blinked at him.

"You didn't tell me?"

He replied blinking, "It slipped my mind!"

I rolled my eyes at him and turned back to Pepe who was stumbling about trying to leaver himself up.

"If I can just..." he managed to balance on his feet and he tried to hop towards me.

"There is a small button underneath the mouth piece. Open wide".

I opened my mouth wide and saw Pepe hit the button with his fist. A sour spray hit my throat and I instantly began to feel my mouth turn back to normal.

"That feels so much better" I spluttered as my croaky accent began to turn back to normal.

"Lets just leave Giovanni eh? its so much better without his voice present." I said smirking at him. He glared at me and then gave Pepe a pleading look.

"I agree monsieur Lavoie." said Pepe as he punched Giovanni's Button. The spray hit Giovanni in the mouth and he seemed to perk up a bit. "But I think he is just dying to say something."

"Wow, Ok then. Try to shut up the Italian because all he wants to do is speak. You know I actually have some really valuable things to sa-"

"-can we reverse that?" I chuckled as I cut him off.

"Enough Bickering now. I have to tell you both something really important!"

"Well go on then Pepe." said Giovanni.

"After Natalie was done torturing me..." He said it so calmly I almost didn't believe it happened. I took a closer look at him and saw large volumes of dried blood across his shoulder.

"I was being dragged by two guards and as that happened I looked up at a cavern thing and Saw Adrijan peeking out from behind a boulder."

"Seriously? How come he didn't get caught?" questioned Giovanni as he began moving from side to side in an effort to snap his restraints.

"How am I supposed to Know? I saw him for a split second." answered Pepe. "At least we know that he's alive."

"Yeah but what about Elizabeth? Do we know where she is?" I asked, my heart racing slightly.

Pepe lowered his Head and my heart sank slightly.

"I have know idea where she is. I wish I did but I didn't find anything out about her location."

"We need to find her, we cant let her down." chimed in Giovanni and I could hear the determination in her voice.

"I agree, She is the kindest person I have ever met. She is the best secret agent ever and she is also one of my friends."

"Pierre, She is all one of our friends." said Pepe as he tried to untie his feet.

"We need to find a way out of here, Now!" shouted Giovanni as he ripped out of his restraints.

"Bitch? how did you do that?!" I cried in disbelief.

"Shut it frogs. You just need to be patient." Within a few seconds he had let me out of the restraints and I was dusting myself down.

"Shoddy structure to these things." I mumbled.

Pepe had managed to untie himself and we were now standing in the centre of the room.

"So what's the plan?" said Giovanni and Pepe in unison.

"Well, i was thinking we just ties ourselves up again and scream at the top of our lungs to attract some attention?

"Ok, lets do it."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"HELP,HELP,HELP!" yelled Pepe.

"IM DYING IN HERE! PLEASE HELP US" screamed Giovanni, oddly like a girl.

"I BROKE A NAIL! OH THE HORROR!!!!" I squealed at the top of my lungs which made the other two send a few stares my way.

We continued to yell out other phrases for what seemed liked ages until finally three guards wearing balaclavas came in.

"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU PUTAS WANT?" the first guard yelled followed closely by the other guards.

One of the guards got right up into my face and pointed his gun at my abdomen. I just smiled.

The third guard shut the door behind him which was a big mistake.

"Thank God that you arrived! We are practically dying in here!" Whimpered Giovanni in the most convincing voice I have ever heard.

"Oh boo hoo...Wait...how are you talking?" said the main guard. He motioned to the others to follow him and they surrounded Giovanni.

I looked at Pepe and he nodded.

Giovanni let out a chilling laugh and looked at the first guard in the eyes.

THWACK!

Giovanni launched out of his restraints and went for the guys neck, grabbing him by the throat and wrestling him to the cells floor.

I jumped out of my restraints and kicked one of the guards in the back while Pepe head-butted the other guy from behind.

I wrestled the gun away from him and smacked his skull hard against the concrete until he was unconscious.

To my left I saw Pepe disarm the third guard and smack him with his own gun to knock him out.

"Dammit Giovanni!" I yelled, pulling him off of the first guy.

"What? I did the job didn't I!" he answered, clearly frustrated.

"Ohh that's nasty Hombre!" recoiled Pepe as he put on the soldiers balaclava.

"Mon dieu Vanni, How many times do we have to tell you. Don't KILL the guards!" I frustrated yelled.

"first of all, You have never told me not to kill them and Secondly, I'm an assassin. Its in my blood!" he argued, putting on the uniform of the corpse below him.

After we all got changed we put the guards (Even the dead one) into our empty restraints in an effort to keep the cell clean.  I grabbed the gun and shut the cell door behind us.

I nominated Pepe to lead us as he spoke Spanish fluently ( much to the annoyance of Giovanni) and we past some cells on our way out making sure to look for any clues to the location of Elizabeth.

Finally, we made it out into a large open warehouse which looked to be built into a cave. Pepe pointed discreetly at some rocks on a ledge up in the corner.

"That's where I saw Adrijan" he mumbled under his breath.

I could see Giovanni staring intently at the stalactite, mumbling something inaudible.

"ENRIQUE! where are you!" screamed a whiny voice.

I froze suddenly and looked towards the sound.

"Who is that?"

"I think that's Natalie."

We both looked at Pepe and saw his eyes turn dark through the Balaclava.

"Si, That's her."
