Chapter 15 - Chapter 14 The aftermath

"Is there more to it," Jane said

"That how she betrayed the company, that how she betrayed me and our friendship," Avalon said, looking at the time to see that the whole flashback took all night,

"Great, looks like I am going to take a nap today," Avalon thought

"How did you meet? I have not heard that either," Jane said curiously about their relationship,

"I met her through Salvatore, we went on a couple of missions, you know what happened in the end," Avalon said

"Hey guys, what going on," Salvatore said, getting up from the chair,

He started to stretch. Pop came out of his back, and he groaned in pain. Jane helped him sit back down,

"You ok Sal, or do you need any pain meds," Avalon said, slightly concerned,

"No, I am alright, it's just Father Time got me on the run, that all," Salvatore said

"I need to take a shower. Are you going to be fine," Avalon said

"Yeah, I will, I am not that old," Salvatore said

"Go on, I will watch him for you," Jane said

"Thanks, Jane," Avalon said, walking out the door to the showers,

"Yeah, this place has showers," Avalon said she started the water, and once the water touched her, it turned silver,

"What is up with the silver," Avalon said with a frustrated sigh,

"Luke, are you sure you heard Avalon?" Damien said

"Yes. I am telling the truth," Luke said, telling them what happened during the mission,

"Really? That happened," Marcello said, shocked

"Yes, it did. I would not be able to finish this mission without her help," Luke said honestly

"If this is true then..." Renato said, cut off by the electronics going haywire,

the microwave looked like it was going to explode, the television was smoking, the refrigerator was oddly fine, Renato looked in the fridge, blasted by the cold of the refrigerator,

"Ok. Luke, go check the security system, I believe we are getting hacked," Renato said

"What makes you say that," Marcello said sarcastically, burning toast on his head,

"I am going to go check that, bye," Luke said, running to the computer if it was still alive.

both Renato and Damien try to calm down Marcello,

"What is this?" Luke said, looking at the computer to see a cartoon version of Snake eyes mocking him,

Luke tried to type on his computer, but it was to do nothing,

"Great. look like I have to get you out of my computer," Luke said, getting a hard drive out, putting it into his computer, which shut itself off,

"How's the system cleaning going?" Renato said from behind him, making Luke jump, not noticing him in the room,

"Don't scare me like that, will you!" Luke said, clenching his chest,

"Sorry. so how bad is the security system," Renato asked concernedly

"I can't even check It, look's like Snake got into the system and reck everything," Luke said, sighing in frustration,

"I can't even get into my computer to work! at least I got that stupid cartoon version of him off my computer," Luke said angrily

"When will your computer be back online?" Renato said sheepishly

"I would say an hour or two, why do you ask? are the electronics still going haywire," Luke said, got up and opened the door to find the toaster on fire, Marcello was trying to put it out. Luke slowly closed the door,

"Alright, that still going on," Luke said

the computer made a sound, Luke went to check it with Renato right behind him,

"Good, it is back online," Luke said

"Wait, what's that," Renato said, pointing at a notification,

"Hey traitors, how is your day hectic? I hope," Snake said

"What are you up to stupid," Luke said

"How's that computer virus? wreck everything in it the path," Snake said mockingly laughing at them,

Renato and Luke looked at each other,

"Just go on with your villain monolog, wait... aren't you her sidekick," Renato typed

"I am not her sidekick! I am the second in command," Snake eyes said

"Yeah. keep telling yourself that," Renato typed

"Whatever, by the way, we also hacked Shepherd too, bye losers," Snake said left the chat room,

Renato and Luke rolled their eyes,

"Renato, go check on our brother, I will stay here and check if he is still in the system," Luke said

Renato went out of the room, Luke checked to see that their system is online,

then he started to check on Shepherd's system, to be blasted by some silver energy knocked him out,

"Luke, are you alright? hun, you look out of it," Avalon said, putting her hand on his cheek, creasing the side of his face,

"What, where am I," Luke said nervously at Avalon's attention to him,

"You just fainted while we were having dinner," Avalon said, smiling sweetly,

"Dinner? Wasn't I just," Luke said, stopping to look at Avalon stunned,

by what she is wearing, a long orange dress with a slit on the top of her chest, and long flowing sleeves,

"What is it? are you just stunned by me or something else," Avalon said worriedly

"No, no. I was just on my computer, and now I am with you having dinner," Luke said, looking at the floor,

"Yeah, honey. it's our first date," Avalon said nonchalantly,

"What! First date. this must be a dream," Luke said, talking to himself,

"What do you mean? you asked me out a month ago! it's just that both of us have been busy with spy stuff," Avalon said, holding his hand,

"Really? I did," Luke said with a fake smile,

"Yes... you did, If I didn't know any better, you are having memory loss or something," Avalon said, taking a sip of iced tea,

"Why the hell? no. go with it," Luke thought

"Well, in that case, you look gorgeous," Luke told her, light blush on his face,

"Not so bad yourself, handsome," Avalon said

"How's your mission going?" Avalon said

"What mission are you talking about," Luke said

"The one where you and your brothers killed Tiger to save me," Avalon said, smiling at him,

"We.... we did that?" Luke said

"Yes, it was pretty heroic. If you ask me," Avalon said

"How? this has to be a dream. This can't be real! I and my brothers have tried for years to kill that witch! how did we do it?" Luke said, standing up from the table,

he finally looked around, saw silver clouds, both him and Avalon on their cloud,

"Honey? what's wrong, we are just in your little universe. away from all your problems, pain, hurt, a complication of life itself," Avalon said, got up and went next to him,

wrapped her arms around his,

"What is this place? you are not Avalon," Luke said, ripping his arm out of her gripe,

"What do you mean?! I am not Avalon.

what... do I look like something out of a nightmare," Avalon said her face grew dark, and Avalon started to turn black, eventually around him,

Luke started to fall into a dark abyss,

yelling down, then he jolted up from his chair breathing heavily,

"That was....," Luke cut off, to see the whole room shined silver,

"What is she? some kind of angel. how did it get to here," Luke said, looking around the room until he remembered that the shepherd was hacked,

"She used her ability to get the hacker out,

so some of her powers went here. I wonder if it spread to the rest of the house," Luke said to himself, "Luke, are you ok in there? we haven't seen you sense last night," Damien said from the other side of the door,

Luke unlocked the door for him,

"What happened here?" Damien said

"Avalon happened. where are our other siblings," Luke said

"They're out getting breakfast since we all were too lazy to make anything," Damien said they both walked into the kitchen,

"That was Avalon," Damien said

Luke got himself some tea,

"It looks like shepherd got to hack into, and Avalon helped get the hacker out of the system, then some of her abilities got to my computer," Luke said

"What? so your story was true," Damien said

"Did you have any doubts?" Luke said

"Yes," Damien said
