An Unwanted Life Chapter 2

Pilar looked at her favorite photo.

The only photo with her entire family that was taken about 14 years ago

Martin to the farthest right.

He held a 2 month old Paloma.

Next to the pair stood a miniture Luis.

To his left was her eldest, Antonio.

Placed next to him was a miniture Theresa.

Standing next to Theresa was her holding a 3 year-old Miguel.

Today Martin had vanished.

Antonio had been kidnapped.

Theresa had been kidnapped, and Paloma had just recently arrived home a month ago.

She had spoken to her a number of 7 times since then.

What had her family become?

"Good morning Mama." Luis greeted his mother while walking into the kitchen in his police uniform.

"You've been getting up quite early recently mijo." Pilar stated.

"Well I have a job now, and I want to make a good impression." he smiled.

"I'm glad your enjoying work." Pilar told her son.

"Yeah I am Mama. I need to go now. Duty calls." Luis picked up a bagel leaving Pilar alone with her thoughts.

The thoughts of her family and if they were dead and alive.

If they were alive, how were they?

If they were dead, where could they be found?

"This is the place right?" Theresa asked while walking up to a private airfeild.

"Should be." Antonio replied.

"Antonio. Is that you?" a voice called from the other side of the vast land.

"Who's that?" Theresa looked up to her much taller brother.

"No idea, but we're about to find out." he noticed a figure running towards him.

"What?" Theresa asked.

"Antonio, dude it's me." the man made himself known.

"Mark!" he was astonished.

"Yeah haven't seen you since the end of training, school, boot camp. Whatever." he shrugged.

"Dude what are you doing here?" Antonio asked.

"Some assignment. So who's this?" he asked pointing down at Theresa

"My baby sis Theresa. She got off training about a year after us." Antonio replied.

"Good to meet ya." she somewhat waved.

"Same. So are you also going to that Harmony place?" he asked.

"Yeah. Ever heard of it?" Antonio asked.

"I remember hearing somehting about the Crane's living around there." Mark replied.

"Who are the Crane's?" Theresa asked.

"The Crane's are rumored to fund this organization." Antonio replied.

"I thought we did patents and stuff." Theresa stated.

"Like he said it's just a rumor. So where have you been in the past three years?" Mark asked.

"Anywhere and everywhere is what it seems like." Antonio said.

"Same. But it's not like we get time off either." Mark chuckled a bit.

"I consider the time between missions time off." Antonio said.

"Which is how much?"

"Anywhere from 1 day to 6 hours." he laughed.

Just then a loud noise roared right up next to the trio.

Antonio, Theresa, and Mark watched as the tiny plane landed on the path next to them.

When it finally stopped a man stepped out.

"LoFitz, LoFitz, and Hertz?" he asked.

"Dead right?" Antonio stated.

"Good. Grab your bag and come with me." he said.

The three each picked up a simple overnight bag that they were expected to live out of, and stepped into the small jet.

"I'm Duegon. When you get off this plane report baggage claim, #4 turning thing, and find a purple and white striped suitcase, a tan plastic suitcase, and a pink suitcase with multiple bumper stickers. Open those for further instructions. Remember those instructions, I'm not repeatin them again." he said before take-off.

"Well I think we all know who will be taking the pink suitcase, Antonio." Mark laughed with Theresa following.

"I want those two protected, and I don't trust them in government hands." Alistar Crane yelled into the phone.

"I know we already have three agents on their way now sir. All qualfied and all the best." the voice on the other end calmly stated.

"Good. Who knows what trouble we could be in without them." Alistar was now more calm.

"Sir I know that. That's why I sent the best. It would be for the good of everyone if you didn't know the identies of the trio I sent to protect them."

"I want to know who these people are." Alistar could feel the rage rise back up again.

"Sir it would be best for the identies of our agents to remain secret." the voice said in a trainquil manor.

"I want to know who to look for." Alistar proclaimed.

"You will sir. They will know their job, and they will know of you. They will know where to be, and who to talk to. Good day sir." the voice hung up on an outraged Alistar.

"Grandfater is everything OK?" Ethan asked from outside the office.

"Everything is OK Ethan." Alistar reassured allowing Ethan to move on.

He waited for his grandson to leave before he pulled out a file on two people.

"What kind of danger are they really in?" the old man asked himself.
