Part 71

Part 71

The sun reaches my face through the window dressing, when my eyes open, I was greeted by the old man that gave us our orders when we were a part of the CIA family.

"You Rhonda, have been a thorn in my side since you got arrested."

Eric jumps up, pulling his weapon on the known intruder,

"If you leave us alone, we'll leave you alone."

"You can't do anything to us,  we out number you two million to one. Put your weapon down and we'll come up with an alternative. If I truly wanted to kill you, you would've been before you got to your cabin Eric. I wanted them to bring you in for a briefing and release terms, which is why they didn't kill you when you were fucking her brains out."

"Cut the bullshit, because if we have to keep looking over our shoulders, we'll have you do the same." Eric said, gun still pointed at the old man's head.

"You don't have the power."

"I may not have an entire army, but who I do have will slaughter the Country I served to protect. I may not have the power, but I do have the endurance. Call it off!"

"You don't listen, there was never a hit out for either of you. We had soldiers invade your home because we were told you crossed over."

"Why was I a mark?" I said standing to me feet.

"That wasn’t us, Russia hacked our database, and sent out a shit load of false marks. Everyone's mark was another agent. They have someone working in house, we need you two to find the mark, and check it. If you do that, we'll all walk our separate ways, no penalty, and you both still get paid your retirement deal. All we ask is that you reframe from being noticed, stay out of trouble, and fly low under the radar."

"Okay so we hit your mark and we walk away free and clear?"

"Yes."

A few minutes went pass as silence took over the room.

"You two think of the offer,  if you choose to accept it,contact me. We'll meet at a destination of your choice." The old man said; before he stood up, tilted his hat, and exited."

Eric immediately started checking our place for cameras and wire taps. I on the other hand, layed back down. If we're going to be on the run again I need to get some sleep, there's no room for sleeping when you're on the run; you always have to have one eye open at all times. So I'm trying to get a few winks in before Eric figures out what's safe for us.
