The Soldier Next Door

In a way, my world has just come to light and yet it has also ended.

From behind this crazy maniac called MacKey, there is someone that is stepping from outside the woods. Now, you do not even have to light it up for me, that elegant body this is moving like a tiger through the brush, that is my wife.

I cannot even begin to describe how relieved I am to see her. What else I am seeing is that she has a very rather intimidating gun in her hand, and rather surprising from behind her comes Lewis and Lopez and some other of the Marines in my old squad. But how…?

I don’t care how…all I care is that she is okay.

And as I rise to my feet with the incredible pain that is shooting to the edges of the bullet, making it feel even deeper, I drop to the floor again. I see as she wants to rush to my side to help me. But, I am not yet done…

So as Lopez moves in on MacKey, I cannot help but smile, “And what do you have to say for yourself now?”

He only but grunts at me as he wants to steps forward but is pulled back by a rather mean looking Lewis, well he has never liked the asshole himself, yet, “Why MacKey?”

There is a hideous laughter that comes from a mouth that truly deserved to be fucking punched, and that is the very thing that Lopez does, though he too turns to MacKey, “Why? Did your ass not have anything better to do?”

“I have grown rather annoyed with this…” Even before he can say the words, I have my hand in his face as it crashes to his into the bridge of his nose. There is a slight crack, and the blood comes streaming down in only but seconds.

But the minute I step back, I glance over to my side, there is one of MacKay’s clowns that has now risen his gun. The mere fact that they had the nerve to raise their guns at me would be the very first mistake that they have made today.

This leads me to advise them of only but two things, “If I was you, and god, I am glad I am not, for if you do not drop your fucking hands, you all will be finding yourselves down where the rays of the sun doesn’t reach.” For but a few seconds, I watch as they hesitate between whose side they need to take.

With that, I see about a majority of the hands drop, and they back off. Yet there are the few of them that choose to remain by MacKey, well, I have no fucking idea who they are, but one thing for sure is that they all are going down.

So with only but a smirk on my face and looking at Gibbs, “What do you say?”NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

He only but nods his head as he grabs hold of his gun that was lying on the pile on the floor. I take my stance and step but two steps back. But as I make that single step, I see the fear creep into seven men that still have their barrels firmly pointed at me.

Now, the question here begs, how do I take out seven men and still prevent from being shot myself? Well, I have the first problem covered as I, much to everyone’s shock, I slip another Ruger in my hand that Gibbs hands over as he comes to take a stand next to me. Now, if I want to be even dirtier, I can, but wait for it…

“Ana, please go stand by Ray; I have this.”

She only but shakes her head at me. So in less than five seconds, she points a barrel towards those very seven men that now have the fear of seven horrors in their eyes.

But from next to me, I hear the voice of MacKey, “If this were not such a fuck up, I would have said that is goddamn hot.”

I glare at him with a newfound fury that builds in my eyes, “And if I were you, I would rather shut my fucking mouth.”

Just then, Ana move but inches forward to the seven men that are watching her as they are trembling, “Now, I suggest that we all drop our guns.”

Then there is a clever ass mouth that feels the need to say something, “You are just a girl with a gun in her hand. Do you even know how to use that thing?”

I watch as my Ana only laughs and gives me a slight wink, then she turns back to him, “This girl is Ana Hunter, and I know exactly how to use this thing.”

But if I think that would make the fool back down, he only but raises his gun higher and start to break out in a fit of uncontrollable laughter, then he makes the mistake to speak, “Oh yes, you are Jenkins family whore.”

Well, my restraint snaps.

With absolute determination to show him his foolish ways, I step closer to him, “My wife is not a whore.” I pause for a moment as I position my finger softly against my trigger, then I continue to speak, “You have made two fatal mistakes tonight.”

He only but smirk at me as he tries to keep his hand steady, “Please do tell me what it is, Hunter?”

“For one, my dear friend, you are pointing a gun at the wrong fucking person,” I slide the tip of my finger over the trigger, then I continue, “Your second was insulting my wife.” And with that, I gently snap my finger until it makes direct contact with the trigger that sets the motion for the bullet to leave the clip; there is a slight click as it slides into the chamber. The heat travels through my hand as the adrenaline rushes through my body. In only one BANG, he topples in a heap of mess to the floor.

But wait…next to him, I hear the distinct sound of a very gun being loaded, as a fool spins his revolver to check if he is fully loaded before he can even snap that thing closed, there is another jerk of my hand, as yet another bullet leaves my Ruger at inches of inches in great speed. It pierces the soft skin between his brows before he, too, finds his fate on the floor.

I stop, yet still firmly point, and speak to the five men that are left standing, “Do any of you wish to join the party on the floor?” I only but look at them as they stand firm and shake my head in amusement, “You know I will blow your fucking brains out; why are you even bothering to tempt me?”

Then from behind me, I hear MacKey speak, “I did not know you were going to provide the entertainment, Hunter?”

I only but laugh at him, “Perhaps I am a little sore that you did not invite me, but I am making for one hell of an evening. Now tell you lapdogs to back off, or otherwise.”

But death is thy ears…well perhaps not mine.

Next, I hear Ana calling for me, “Ethan, watch out.” Well, it seems that two of these brave souls think that it is rather a great idea to charge at me. So as they come towards me at great speed, I aim both arms straight forward, and in one…two…three…they both drop together like the fucking idiots they are.

“So, it only leaves you three, for I will not be blowing MacKay’s brains out tonight. Now tell me, do you really want to test my patience tonight?”

They remain firm; they do not make a single move.

From behind me, I hear as Ray clears his throat rather deeply, yet I ignore the man. This leaves me with only one option…

“Gibbs.”

“Yes, Ethan?”

“Right or left?”

“Mmm…tough one. I think I will go for the middle.”

I only but nod my head at her, then I softly whisper in his direction, “Now.”

And in absolute perfect precision, as a complete one, he drops the fool that was standing in the middle, and not even an inch of a second later, the two on his sides tumble forward, their knees give in as the last ounce of breath leave their bodies.

Completely satisfied that not a single soul is going to come after me, I turn to Ana and take her to the side. With a waterfall that is bursting its banks and erupting down my cheeks, I pull her closer to the warmth of my body.

I hear her softly whisper my name, “Ethan.”

I close the gap even more than before. What begins as a small peck becomes more passionate. The rest of the world spins so fast it becomes non-existent. I lean even further into her and my body melts into hers. It is as if I can feel a fire blazing within me, out of control. We are completely and utterly in sync at this very moment.

She presses her lips against mine even harder. Lightning passes through me. I feel lost in a different universe and she is slowly taking me away. Her cold hand creeps from my neck down my spine and pulls me closer. Her touch makes my body shiver. Her delicate, innocent kiss makes my heart flutter. Then it races. My body surrenders.

As we pull away from each other, I look deep into those big brown eyes. “Let’s go home boo.”

She looks at me with her head slight cocked, “But what about MacKey?”

“Oh, we are not done with him yet.”
