Chapter 18
Agent B kicked down the door swaying his gun side to side entering the hallway as cold air smothered the area. His feet hit the hollow shiny smooth wood on the floor as it squeaked."Why don't you come out so we can end this."
Agent B walked up the steps at a slow pace. His eyes dotted right to left. He continued his path in the hallway of blue panel walls.
Agent X kicked and knocked the gun at Agent B's hand while punching his face. "And ruin a perfect night?"
Agent B glared, countering another punch as Agent X's fist put a hole in a wall missing Agent' B's head.
Agent B kicked Agent X's ribs. He put Agent X in a headlock. "Is that all you got?"
Agent X pushed back against the wall while Agent B tightened his hold on his neck. Agent X elbowed him in the gut and flipped him over on a table as it collapsed. Agent X stood back getting in a fighting stance. Agent B stood up and pulled out a knife as he curved his hand. He lunged forward at Agent X's stomach. Agent X dodged the sharp blade from his arm as he countered it and punched him in the throat as he startled back. Agent X kicked his knee, took Agent B by the arm, and pushed him in the kitchen. Agent X smashed a white plate against Agent B's face while Agent B punched Agent X in the face. He charged at Agent X as he yelled. Agent X countered and slammed his head hard on the table and twisted his arm. Agent B got up and hit Agent X with a black frying pan to the head. Agent B took a sharp blade from the counter cutting board and lunged forward with it as Agent B dodged and countered with his hands.
"I am gonna cut you to pieces." Agent B circled around.
Agent X leaned close against the gas stove of a pot of boiling hot water. "Not tonight." Agent B ran forward when Agent X threw a pot of hot water at Agent B's face and scolded him as he held his hands up to it.
Agent X got behind Agent B with a strong grip around his neck and snapped it like a twig as it hit the floor hard. Agent sighed leaning against the table. "Stay dead."
A phone rang from Agent B's pocket. Agent X searched through his pocket and picked up a black Samsung 23 Galaxy cell phone.
"Is it done?" Deshed asked.
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid wing bat can't come to the phone right now, can I take a message?" Agent X with a deadpan expression kicked Agent B's body.
Deshed sighed. "Agent X."
Agent X gritted his teeth."You think you snuff me out easily? When I find you, I'm going to finish you off and burn everything else to the ground."
"I underestimated you. A mistake I won't make again."
Guns fired at Agent X's home as he took cover, ripping through his living room. Walls plastered with bullets as the couch turned into a pin cushion with features flying in the air. Glass cabinets shattered by bullets as he took cover.
"I will tell Casey you send her your regards."
"What? no words? I thought you two were close?"
"Deshed, I'm coming for you." Agent X crawled on the floor reaching for his gun.
"I doubt that. The cleaners will take special care of you." It looks like your past is catching up to you. Your father would be disappointed."
"My father? What does this have to do with all this?"
"It doesn't matter. You will be dead soon. Farwell." Deshed hung up the phone.
Agent X frowned? breathing hard as he kept low and went through the back door. Two men dressed in black walked in with their guns pointing to an empty room.
The sound of tires screeched hit the sidewalk as Agent X reversed the car turning the wheel. The two cleaners fired their guns at the car hitting the front windshield as the shards of glass flickered above his head when Agent X ducked down taking a hit to the left shoulder driving off on the road.
A cell phone rang on the seat. Agent X picked up speed turning on the line. He answered the phone. "Hello?"
"Hello X."
"You again? How did you get this number?" Agent X changed to the middle line.
"Is that anyway to talk to your biggest fan? I am sending you a secret location so we can meet up in person tomorrow. I have information that may prove to be useful."
Agent X frowned. "Why should I trust you?"
"You don't have too many options. Plus, you have Deshed and the rest of surviving members of the Raven Agency gunning for you. These guys are tough notch assassins. And all are juiced up on a new brand Zara drugs. They make steroids look like aspirin."
"It explains that the guy I fought before didn't die from the first encounter." Agent X sighed as glanced on the side view mirror seeing a black car picking up speed. "What else is new?"
"Just meet me by the coordinates." The man ended the call.
Agent X picked up speed turning on a lane. The black car swerved on the side honking his horn. A guy fired his gun at Agent X's back glass of the car, leaving four bullet holes. He ducted down as he glanced at his attacker, gritting his teeth. The black car hit Agent X's from the side close to the side rail. He took his gun and fired shots at the Black car. The car rammed Agent X on the side making a bigger dent on the car crushing a headlight.
Agent X scrunched his nose while his eyebrows furrowed, gripping one hand on the steering wheel."You want to play games? Alright, let's play."
There was a large truck ahead of them. Agent X smirked as he hit the black car hard enough as it spun out of control as it collided against the trailer on impact, as the fire rose roasting the chord bodies in a massive explosion.

As the sun shone with an ambient warmth Agent X met with a mystery man at a local park surrounded by people. The man wore a long brown trench coat with a longboard sitting by the bench with his arms spread out. He turned to his right checking his watch as Agent X sat next to him at the bench as he sighed.
"Are always this late?"
"And your point? You said you had information for me?" Agent X glared at the man. "Who are you?"
The man turned his head and smirked at Agent X. Call me "Cypher. I got intel that Deshed and his Raven Agency crew are planning a full blown taking out specific operatives within five days with juiced up assassins on the Zara."
"How many?"
"Fifty operatives. One of them you might know. Casey. She is a part of it."
Agent X's widened. "Where is it gonna take place?"
"At a military base not too far from here." If Deshed got some of these soldiers on the Zara drug, he would have total control. Trained armed killers at his beck and call. He will have his personal army. We can't have that. Which is why I ask you for your help?"
Agent X frowned."Are you asking me for help? I got rogue Raven agents breathing on my neck?"
Cypher sighed. "Maybe we can help each other. I can help deal with your rogue agent issue if you help with locating and eradicating their plans."
"You said you have information about my past. Spill?"
"It goes deeper. Your father was part of Project Dark Descent. Cypher showed digital images of teenagers covered with a face mask submerged in green water inside a glass tube."The whole thing started with him and Deshed. I managed to pull up classified documents on the whole thing before it got erased in the database.''
Agent X sighed. "My father? Who is he? Where can I find him?"
"That's a loaded question."
Cypher got shot in the chest twice as his head slumped down. People around the park bolted. Agent X got behind the bench as he pulled out his gun as he looked around breathing hard sweat dripping off his forehead.
"Why can't I have an easy night?" Agent X turned and fired his gun at the person hiding behind a tree.
The gunman stood back and fired more shots as he ran to the car and took off. Agent X checked Cyphers pulse. Cypher coughed up blood as Agent X's eyes widened. "You are one tough guy to put down." I'm gonna get you out of here.''
Cypher reached for Agent X's hand giving him a piece of white paper. "Too late for that. You must go and find Hugo. He will be able to give you what you need to stop the Raven Agency. You will find him at the address."
Cypher's hands collapsed on the bench as he took his last breath. Agent X lifted his hand and closed Cypher's eyes.
