I can't see what you're imagining
Paris

-US Embassy-

Jenny sighed, following along Snake into the hallway.

“Jack...” Jenny said, placing a hand on his shoulder, “I can't trust The Big Boss or the Cobra Unit. I don't know them. Not as well as you. I don't know why they did what they did here in Paris.”

She paused, knowing Snake would start to get angry, then quickly continued.

“But I know you. I trust you, and I trust your judgment. If you say they can't be traitors, then I believe you,” Jenny continued, “I'm sure there's a reason for it, but going up against the others here isn't going to help us figure out what's happening.”

-Chloe's Bar-

“I look harmless, huh?” Aaron grinned, taking another sip of his pop, “Good, that means I'm doing it right.”

He wanted to look harmless, so less people would try bothering him.

“You look harmless yourself,” Aaron said, “But I doubt it. Not in a place like this, being the owner. You gotta be hiding something.”

He shrugged a little, “Not that I mean to pry, but you seem really interesting. I like to get to know new people.”

New York City

-Streets-

“Samara's my friend, and she's real too, just like me!” Blake said, disappearing from his father's arms in a puff of shadow and reappearing by Samara, “She may not be flesh and blood, but that doesn't make her any less real...”

[US Embassy]

Snake stopped only when Jenny approached him. In the brief time between when he stormed out of the medical room and when Jenny caught up to him, Snake had already shoved a cigar in his mouth and was about to light it.

He sighed, and simply shook his head. He took the cigar out of his mouth and just slipped it back into the pocket of his jacket.

“I don’t know why they’re in Paris either… but I know The Boss. She’s no traitor. Whatever she’s doing, she has a reason. I won’t second guess her, and I won’t let a bunch of people who have never met her diminish her record like this.”

Snake punched the wall. He left a dent in the wall, and his knuckles were cut up. He simply shook his head and turned back to Jenny.

“I need to talk to The Boss… I need to get to the bottom of this myself…”

Didymus turned without another word to Marco, Nanami, or anyone else.

Enemies...? he thought. Everyone on this miserable team will be my enemy before this mission is over. Snake will have to take a number...

He wanted to wander back to his quarters...but he headed back to the library, he had a guest to see to...

“No. You don't. We both do,” Jenny said, taking Snake's injured hand, frowning at it.

“I'm going to help you. I'm not going to let you walk unto another battlefield without me,” Jenny said, “Now let's get your hand bandaged, come on...”



Aiden sat in the library. She had a book she had gotten from the walls, and was leafing through it as she waited.

Didymus did his best to hide his frustration with his mission as he approached Aiden again, looking around to see if Alice was still there...

"Evening, again..." he said.

“Hello!” Aiden said, seeing Didymus. She smiled, getting up now, placing the book down on the table. “I hope you figured out what was wrong earlier...I'm not really sure what was going on, but it sounded bad...”

She frowned for a moment, then perked back up, “So am I suppose to meet you back at the Notre Dame, and not here, right?”

GRAPPLING HOOK!

Paris

Chloe's Bar

Sarai was very red in the face, the young woman staring back at Connor as he stumbled backwards and tripped. Instantly she was at his side, helping him up

"A-Are you okay!?" she asked, embarrassment pushed away by concern. "You aren't hurt are you?"

"Maybe I am, maybe i'm not" Chloe said, playing with her short messy hair. "I'm just a a pretty young wanderer who likes a good time"

US Embassy

"Musashi!" Laila exclaimed, dropping to his side "That was amazing! Are you okay!?"

Adrianna wiped some sweat from her brow, feeling a bit winded. "That was...That was pretty impressive"

[...]

Chloe couldn't help but smirk, leaning against the bar. "What? You're not really harmless? Oh I see...You're one of those bad boys like in all of the American movie. A biker you know? With slicked back hair and a leather jacket"

“You look harmless yourself, but I doubt it. Not in a place like this, being the owner. You gotta be hiding something.”

New York City

Sama’s Office

Crystal was part confused....Part amused...And part annoyed. She really didn't know how to get Kimi out of the office- even for a couple of minutes"

"Look, can't you and Sama handle all of this later? Heck come with us when we go after the Nazi-

Instantly she slapped her hands over her mouth. She didn't want to give this girl an open invitation.

Streets

"But love....She's not real" Melanie tried to tell Blake, knowing it was useless. She walked over to him, offering her hand. "Come on baby, we need to go home"

“Hah!” Aaron laughed, “I'm studying to be a teacher. Elementary school. I don't think I've ever driven a motorcycle. Or own a leather jacket. My dad's an accountant, even.”

And his mom is a German spy, but, hey.

Aaron could drive if he needed, but he preferred getting around on his feet, using parkour.

Which hasn't been invented/named yet, by the way.

“And a good time huh? So what does that mean?” Aaron wondered.

New York City

-Hawkins' House-

“Yes, she is,” Blake said, as they got back home. “She's real! Maybe she's not flesh and blood like me but she's still real...She thinks, she has feelings, she has wants too...”

Blake walked over to Samara, taking her hand, “I know she is...She has to be...”

[Paris]

[US Embassy]

Snake sighed. Perhaps it was smashing his hand through the wall, but he had calmed down quite a bit. He didn’t seem as angry anymore.

“… I won’t stop you from coming with me…” Snake agreed. He wanted to. He didn’t want Jenny anywhere near the battlefield this time… but he knew that she would come one way or another, and at least this way he could try to keep her safe.

[Chloe’s Bar]

Connor groaned as he rolled over onto his side and looked up at Sarai. His head was pretty red – in his cheeks because of embarrassment, and in his forehead because of where he had slammed into the shelf.

“Um… I’m fine… and s-sorry for walking in here…”

[US Embassy]

Musashi groaned as he tried to sit up. He slipped his sword over his shoulder, and looked up at Laila, Adrianna and Oliver.

“I’m fine… that just takes a lot out of me…” Musashi replied, leaning against one of the burnt trees and taking a deep breath. “Everybody okay?”

[New York City]

[Sama’s Office]

"Look, can't you and Sama handle all of this later? Heck come with us when we go after the Nazi-

Sama looked absolutely horrified when Crystal said this. His eyes widened, his mouth dropped, and for a moment all he could do was pray that Kimi would decline the invitation.

“I’d love to!” Kimi said, clapping her hands together. “Killing Nazis would look really good on my resume. Plus for once, nobody will get mad about me getting too violent with the bad guys if they’re Nazis!”

She shrugged. “Alright… I’m gonna go get my brass knuckles, find a baseball bat, maybe a lead pipe… different stuff I can use to beat them Nazis to death… if you two try to ditch me, you WILL pay for it.”

Kimi headed off, whistling and leaving.

Sama just groaned.

“… well… on the plus side, this will drive Jeremie nuts.”

Didymus paused, not wanting to shed any light on the mission in front of Aiden (she still wasn't on the team).

"...thank you." he said. "And yes, I would suggest meeting us at the cathedral." he added.

“You couldn't stop me even if you wanted to,” Jenny said, taking Snake's arm, “Now come on, I'll get that hand fixed and then we need to get some rest for tomorrow. We'll handle the mission at the Notre Dame, then we'll look into finding her, alright?”



Aiden nodded to Didymus, “Thank you...And thank you for the chance to help! I want to be able to help people...”

She paused, then moved forward suddenly, and gave Didymus a hug.

Because Aiden thinks he needs one.

Snake sighed, as he followed along close to Jenny.

“We'll handle the mission at the Notre Dame, then we'll look into finding her, alright?”

Snake nodded. He supposed that was all they could do. The mission at the Notre Dame was too important for him to try to skip.

“I’m not exactly hopeful for our chances. This ‘unit’, if you can even call it that, is incredibly dysfunctional. Didymus and the Prince don’t get along, and neither of them gives a damn about my advice. This whole thing could go south very fast.”

Didymus was caught off-guard as Aiden...hugged him.

"Uh-I..."

He really was confused.

He slowly returned the gesture, though still confused...

"Um...thanks..." he said, though ironically Aiden's affection was making her more suspect in his eyes...

"...I'll see you tomorrow."

The next morning

Didymus was up and had eaten, and it had been made known he wished to see the team before they all were gone or had left the embassy...

-US Embassy-

Jenny was up as well, waiting in the main room for the others and for any last minute briefing they might have.

She was also going through her med kit, making sure she was prepared.

“Hello Didymus,” Jenny said, nodding to him, “I don't suppose we've gotten any new intell, do we?”

-Notre Dame-

Aiden was outside, looking around and waiting for Didymus and the others, keeping alert.

Her father was inside the church right now though, keeping watch himself...

-Chloe's Bar-

His head...His head hurt. It was just suppose to be one drink. He figured he could handle one drink. His mom certainly could.

He was always the responsible one of his siblings. He deserved to let loose a little bit, now and then, right?

And she was cute, and there was something about that girl...Like they had something in common they would probably both be surprised about.

It had been one drink. Then another. Then a third. Then Aaron couldn't remember much else, as he slowly awoke in an unfamiliar bed, rubbing his temples.

“Ugh...what happened...?” Aaron muttered, feeling some panic start to bubble up. This was not the kind of position he was suppose to be getting himself into...He was suppose to be the good kid! He didn't wake up in strange beds with a headache...

New York City

(I know there's a time difference but it's not like anything here is going to affect anything in Paris. XDX )

-Hawkins' House-

Blake was awake now, dressing into some regular clothes, then walked over to Samara, touching her shoulder and gently shaking her.

“Come on Samara, wake up...It's morning...” Blake said quietly.



Galv was up as well, reading the paper in the living room, frowning. He wondered when they'd be contacted by Walter next...Or if the Nazis would try something here...

-Gallic Enterprises-

Lily was up in the head office, waiting for Ryan, also reading the paper, unconsciously mirroring her twin, though she was smirking a bit.

Gallic Enterprises was doing fairly well, even in this economy. She had made sure they were investing in weapon manufacturer’s as well. She was certain war was coming...

[Amiens, France – 1918]

The smell of black powder and blood wafted through the air as explosions sounded all around, gunshots rang out and a combination of grunts and screams signified the end to countless lives.

In a trench, a young man with brown hair, barley sixteen, peered up from the side. He had a rifle in his hand, and a fresh cut on his forehead pouring blood down his face. He was covered in sweat and dirt, and at that moment Jack wanted to be anywhere else in the world.

He knew that he was supposed to be in France, but he was absolutely sure that he had ended up in Hell instead. The constant pounding of the shells, the screams of the dying and the stingy smell of gunpowder all made him sick.

“Get up, Jack.”

He turned to see a woman in white standing above the trench. Amazingly, there was not a spec of blood or dirt anywhere on her body. She looked down at him with intense eyes.

“You can't hide from this, Jack. No matter how difficult things become, you have to get up and keep going.”

“I can't, Boss...” Jack replied, shaking his head.

“You must.” The Boss replied firmly. “You are a soldier, Jack. No matter what happens, you must keep moving forward. You must keep fighting for your ideals, and you must never surrender. Now get up, Jack.”

[US Embassy]

Snake opened his eyes. He was sitting on the roof of the Embassy, his legs crossed Indiana style. The soft breeze wafted over his face. He ran his hand along the length of his beard, and then stood up and looked around.

He had not slept well last night. He continued to have the dream, thinking back to the Battle of Amiens, when he had been at his lowest point and The Boss had helped him through it. Had it not been for her, he likely would have died that day.

Snake desperately wanted to see her now. If there was anyone who could deal with the mess that was the dysfunctional unit he found himself attached to, it would be The Boss. It would take her five minutes to get the entire group to fall into line, and with her help success in their mission would be a guarantee...

… but The Boss was not here. Instead they had 'Big Boss', the name given to Snake by the President, although he refused to use it. He wasn't worthy of the title of Boss... he couldn't even convince this group of anything...

He sighed, put out his cigar, and headed inside to find the others...




“I'm just saying we need to have a plan, just in case.”

Nanami and Musashi were walking through the halls of the Embassy, heading towards the meeting room where they were scheduled to meet with the others. Nanami seemed to have fully recovered from her injuries, and was back to her usually self.

“No! No plan. We're not having a plan for that.” Musashi frowned, crossing his arms. He was dressed for a mission. He wore a red coat and dark pants, and had his sword strapped to his back and a pistol on his belt.

Nanami shook her head. “I really think-”

Musashi stopped on his heels and he spun around. His eyes seemed a lot more intense than usual, and he crossed his arms.

“No, Nanami. I made my bed and now I have to lie in it. We're just going to have to make things work, no matter what. Now come, I don't want to be late.”
