Broken Hart

 

Ven glanced  over at Hart as he kept a look out  for any guards . 

"How much longer is this gonna take ?"

Sighing in annoyance , Hart looked at the screen ,which indicated  that it was at 95 percent  download. 

"Just about done ."

Ven turned around  as he warily  watched the hallway for any guards . They could come by  at any moment. 

"A little  speed would be appreciated . "

"Finished !" Hart walked up next to Ven ,waving a rectangular  object  in front  of him ."Let's go ."

They met up with the rest of their group  and maneuvered  their way to the cells and freed the rest  of  the  prisoners . When they thought they were safe, a group of guards appeared . Ven's eyes went wide as he saw Lynch  among them .

"Those prisoners  belong to me .Return  them .Now . "Ven and his group took a protective  stance between  the prisoners  and Lynch . He smirked  as he  nodded  to his men . They  moved forward with their weapons  drawn . Knowing they had to get prisoners  away , Hart made a split  second  decision  and reached  into his pocket  and threw what he had in his hand at  in the direction  of Lynch  and his guards . Seconds  later a thick cloud if smoke surrounded  them .

Taking  advantage  of the confusion , Hart turned to  the nearest of his comrades  and handed him the flash drive  he used  to  collect  the Intel he was  sent to retrieve .

"Take this and the people . Go!"

The man nodded  solemnly  and motioned to the others ,they began to making their way to their headquarters . Ven watched as his teammates left, thanks to Hart's quick thinking . He grabbed his gun and provided  cover for his troops .

"Don't  let them escape ! Get them ,you fools ! "

Luckily  Ven and Hart were able to hold back the guards at bay . They fought side  by side ,but we're suddenly separated  thanks to the smoke that was beginning  to thin out . He looked around and too late he realized  Lynch  himself  had Hart .one arm around his throat  and the other with a gun to his head .

"I'm only saying this onice ,rebel , surrender  yourselves  or this one  dies ."

Ven froze  as he saw Hart try to pry the arm off his throat .

"D-Don't do it ! He's gonna kill me anyway ."

Ven watched as Lynch  tightened his arm around the others throat .I will not ask again . "

"UUng-Ven ,don't  !"

Ven glanced  at Hart then at Lynch . He sighed as he tossed  his gun to the ground ,then watched as Ronnie  ,the teammate  left  do the same . Lynch  smirked as he nodded  at his men . They surrounded  the trio and pushed them towards  the compound . As they were pushed into a cell , Lynch  smirked  at the trio .

"I may have lost  a few prisoners ,  but I gained you three . A fair trade ,I would say . "

Ven glared at the general . "Whatever."

Lynch  continued  to smirk  as he took a step forward.

"Hmm , you'll  stay here until I decide  what to do with you . Sit tight ."

He turned and walked away as he chuckled . Hart sighed and sat on the floor with his knees  drawn up ,

"You should have  left me , he's still going to kill us you know ."

Ronnie ,glanced over at the slender  male .

"Don't think like that ,we're gonna get out ."

Hart scoffed  as he stared at the floor. 

"At least the people  were freed . Hope that Intel does some good ."

Ven slid down and sat across  from Hart .

"Let's just worry about getting out ."

******************************************************

Lynch stared  at the screen . He watched the the trio  as they talked amongst  themselves . So not only  did they free the prisoners , but had Intel ? He frowned . 

"I just checked with our tech , they still don't  know  what  was taken . "

Lynch , glanced  at  the guard .

"Then find out ."

"Our techs are working  on  it . "

Lynch glanced back at the screen as he thought about  his next course of action . 

"I'll handle this myself ."

With a wave if his hand , the general  dismissed  the guard . The man saluted and left without another  word .

*******************************************************

Ven close his eyes and leaned his head against  the  wall . He had to get out of here and fast ,knowing Lynch , the bastard would probably torture them before he killed them . Lynch  was well known  for being  a sadistic  person who loved to torture  his victims even after they told him what he wanted to know  . A sigh drew his attention . Hart was picking  at a thread  that came loose . The younger  male was like a brother to him ,in fact they knew each other since they were young . Hart lost his parents when he was a kid , thanks to Lynch . Since then Ven swore he would never let anything happen to his friend . He looked around the small cell trying to find a way out,but he had no such luck . A toilet stood on the corner along with a sink ,while the wall was concrete  just like the  floor . Aside from the narrow  gap that doubled  as a window , there was nothing  else .

"Any ideas on getting out of here ?"

Hart turned to look at Ven ."You should've  left me . We know what that maniac  is capable  of ."

"Oh yeah ,great plan . Except  for the part were I would feel guilty for leaving you . I wasn't  about to do that ."

"Ven's right ,Hart . We just couldn't  leave you ."

"How  sweet . Such noble sentiment . I just want to puke ."

 They turned to see Lynch  standing  with four guards, two on either  side of him . Ven  glared  at the man . 

"Finally come to murder us ?"

"It seems you rebels  managed  to take Intel from us .I want to know  what you took ."

He was met  with silence . He sighed and turned around . 

"I wasn't  expecting  an answer  any way . "

Without thinking  Hart  threw his hand at Lynch  and flipped  him off ." Bite me , ass-face ! "

Ven and Ronnie glanced  at him . Lynch just smiled at them . 

"Let's see if you still  have  that same attitude  after I'm done with you ."

He reached into his pocket  and  took out a key and unlocked the door . He pointed  at  Hart . " I Want that one  ,bring him ." 

Hart lifted himself into a fighting stance  as the four guards walked toward  him . Ronnie  and Ven blocked them . Without  warning , Lynch  pulled out a large  metallic  baton  and struck  Ven . Ronnie reacted and went to attack  Lynch , but before  he could do anything ,  he was hit to . Hart looked on in horror  as his friends  went down . He looked from them to Lynch .

"Consider yourself  lucky that I want you alive . Get  him ."

Two guards grabbed  Hart , who slipped from their grasp and kicked one and turned to on the other only to get knocked out . He fell to the floor in a heap . Lynch  sighed in disgust . "Can you get him now ?" They grabbed the unconscious  Hart and dragged  him out with them .

*******************************************************

Ronnie woke up with a groan. He looked around  as he sat up . He shook his head , wincing  as a sharp  pain shot through  his brain . He remembered  where he was . Ronnie glanced at Ven  , who was coming to, but no Hart . Crawling over to Ven ,he shook him gently . The other jerked awake  ,and threw a punch which  was avoided . When Ven saw where he was ,he calmed down slightly  as he glanced  around .

"Wh-Where's  Hart ? "

Ronnie followed  Ven's  gaze ."Lynch  took him ."

*******************************************************

Lynch  sat on his chair as he looked at the monitor ,a cruel  smile spread across  the man's face . He had thought if killing them , the rebels  he had caught , but that was too easy . So instead  he decided  he would mess with their  minds , make them hate each other . He noticed  how the one called Ven  was protective  of the younger male , the one called Hart . He got  up  and  walked toward  a table  that had various  objects on it . He scanned  it until he found what he was looking for . A vial of blue liquid  and a bottle . A knock at the door directed his gaze to it .

"Come in ."

A man in a white coat came in .

"The room is ready for you ."

"I'll be there in a moment .  Have the guards bring the rebels  to the room ,"

The man nodded  and  closed the door as he left. Lynch  smirked  as  he  thought  of the fun he was going to have with the rebels . By the time he was  done with them ,they would lose trust in themselves  and want to kill each other .

 Ven and Ronnie  stood up  when the guards stopped  at their cell and opened  the door . A gun was pointed  at them ."Come with us and no funny business. "  Silently  they walked the corridor  as Ven looked around hoping to get his bearings . He was worried  about  Hart and wondered what happened  to  him . At the end of the corridor ,  they turned right as they passed several cells that were empty . Then they walked a narrow  hallway  that had doors on either  side . The guards stopped at the last one . They knocked and seconds later a man opened the door . He wore a white coat . He let them in . Ven walked inside  cautiously , his eyes taking in the room . A seemed  normal , except  that it didn't have any furniture . Just a couple of chairs and a table .

"Ah ,good . Take them to the chairs . Tie them up good ." 

Ven glared  at  Lynch  who had a smug look on his face ."What  did you do with our friend ?"

Ven wanted to kick  that look off the man's face ,but he was worried  about  Hart .

"I wouldn't  worry  about  him ,but he's unharmed...for now . So please sit down ." 

Lynch gestured  to the chairs  ,reluctantly   both Ven and Ronnie  sat and then they were tied .

"I hope your comfortable . "

Lynch walked over to the table and grabbed a glass vial that had a blue liquid he glanced at the man with the white coat ,  who was crushing what looked like pills into powder . The man gave the substance  to Lynch  . He took it and poured the powder into the vial and shook it . Lynch  then  walked  toward  Ven . He gave him a cruel  smile .

"You want to see your friend right ? Then give me no trouble and drink this ."

Ven looked  suspiciously  at the vial ."What is that ? Poison ? "

"No . Drink it and I swear nor I or my men will hurt your  friend .  I guarantee  it . Drink it ." 

Lynch held the vial to Ven's mouth and watched as he drank it ."There that wasn't  so bad .You will see your  friend  shortly . I know you  will be...excited  to see him  . Very excited . " 

The way Lynch  said those words made Ven uneasy . He had a feeling it had so thing to do with what he drank .

Hart looked as the door opened . Two guards pushed  someone  in and closed the door . The person stumbled  in as Hart looked on in confusion .  The stranger  had a black cloak  complete  with  a  hood covering  their face .

"H-Hello ?" 

This was something  that  was trying to get out of my head .

Like it , hate it or meh.

Let me know what you think .

Huggles ,  bea. ****
