Chapter 27

Beau sat at his work bench in his apartment worrying about whether the mission would go well or not. He didn’t trust Ryu not to fuck it up some how though he knew Ryu cared about Jessica….

“You still thinking about getting back in the game, Techno?” Angel asked.

“Angel?!” Beau breathed out her name in gasp of surprise.

Beau turned in his seat and stared at a tall female in a blue uniform with motorcycle helmet on. She walked over to him. She had a sway to her hips and a supply curve to her body. She placed a gloved hand on his cheek.

“Hey handsome. You miss me.” Angel said.

Beau stared up at her. “You won’t let me see your face yet. Why?”

“It’s not time, Handsome. Your still on guard against me. I ain’t no one night stand. I’m sticking around. I got the ride out front. You want me to give you a lift?”

Beau’s legs formed under him as he pushed himself up and stood nearly at her height. His head came to her chin. “I know your height and body type. I’ll be able to pick you out in Homeworld.” He said coolly even as the pain from his prosthetic legs. He needed an upgrade no time like the present. He sat on the edge of desk a moment while he formed a simpler from of prosthetic legs he could move better.

“Are your legs hurting?” Angel asked in concern.

Beau waved away her concern.. “I know what you look like now.” He said forming new blue legs as he spoke.

“You do?” Angel asked and turned to look over to two other females that were dressed like her in the same outfit and helmet. “What do you think ladies.

The girls giggled they shook their heads.

Beau groaned and came to his feet in his new legs. There was soreness to them but no pain at least not yet. “Damn. Hold on. Let me get my gun.” He said moving over to his safe. He unlocked it by keying in a code. The door opened and he got out a long rife case.

“I don’t think your going to need that.” Angel said.

Beau frowned at her. “Why not?! A soldier needs his weapon.”

Angel shook her head. “Your not a soldier anymore. You don’t need to use it anyone.” She said and then held up a single bullet. “You only need this. Your mind and body can do the rest.”

Beau frowned but put down his rifle and reached for the bullet with his mind pulling it from her hand to his. He held it.

“We’ll give you a few minutes. Ladies let’s go warm of the ride.” Angel said heading out the door with her friends.

Metal and weapon pieces were pulled to the bullet as Beau walked slow to the door. He heard boots touch down on the floor boards behind him. He paused frowning. “I was expecting you much sooner. Why are you showing up now of all times?” He said.

“Techno.” Eddie Long spoke softly.

Beau half turned to look first at Eddie Long who stood in a green uniform with SD on the breast pocket. His partner who was dressed the same had on a face shield.

Beau focused on Eddie. “If you came here to kill me let’s get to it.” He said.

Eddie grimaced. “We came here to ask a favor. The government wants Jessica Remo in Supers Division. We had to take her on. We didn’t know you were involved.” HE said.

Beau shook his head. “I’m not the one you should worried about. She belongs to Homeworld. We will take her back.” He said.

Eddie stiffened at his words. “Our people are under orders. We can’t let her go. My partner and I were hoping things can be resolved with a whole lot of people getting killed.”

“Give her up then and take the heat from the normals.” Beau said.

“We can’t.” Eddie said.

Beau turned his head to the side. “You can’t or you won’t?”

“We can’t!” Eddie said. “We’re under some type of hypnosis and orders by our handler. We can’t afford to buck them at this time. If you can take him out we put up that much of fight.” He said.

The other man handed Beau a 8’11 photo of the handler. Beau stared at Ethan Remo. “This is Ethan Remo. I don’t care what he did. Homeland will-“

Eddie shook his head. “Ethan Remo was killed two weeks by this man.” He said.

“What No. No. You’re lying?! It can’t be. No.” Beau said.

“Mr. Remo wanted out of the arrangement between them.” Eddie’s partner said calmly. “Agent Hall killed him in a fight and then put the rest of us under hypnosis.”

The picture fell from Beau’s hand as his armor started to form around his body until his helmet formed around his head. He looked up at them from his faceless mask.

“I’ll handle it from here.” Beau said coldly as a blue light brightened his body and then he moved with advanced speed.

Beau moved fast racing past both men down like they were standing still and into the hallway toward the stairway. He raced away jumping down fleets of stairs at a time until he was down stairs and he headed to the garage area.

He wasn’t surprised to find Angel and her girls there waiting for him. Angel stood by modified black SUV. I ignored them as I appeared and jumped onto a motorcycle and started it up. The garage door opened up and then minute it was cleared I drove through the door with the Angel following me in the SUV.
