Interuption
I stood guard with the rest of my troop as the High Society was throwing a ball. The parties in town are normally birthdays, holidays or when Bill, the literal king of the world, arrived. This was the third circumstance. Since Bill went from demon to human, extra protection was needed. We protect the High Society from the Rebels and Hired Gunman. Rebels refused to obey Bill. Hired Gunman were and were not necessary, they were meant for High Society to use, but are used all around.
I snap out of my deep thought. The Northwests were walking out to greet incoming guests. Hundreds of guest passed by, and lastly Bill. Since I was a General in my sector, I helped escort the Northwest Family.
Mr. and Mrs. Northwest hated me, but couldn't do anything about my assignment. Pacifica, however adored me, but I chose to keep it professional. Anything lower than the Scientists class was not to mingle or be with them.
It was the law. I could speak with everyone else though. Ford, Stan, Grandpa Shermie, Soos, obviously Pacifica and Wendy. I lost contact with my sister six years ago, I couldn't find her anywhere and assumed she was taken out by a Gunman.
"Ahh, King Cipher." Preston starts. "How nice of you to come."
"Don't be an idiot Preston, you know I come every year or two to make sure no one's become a traitor." Bill says darkly.
"Right, right." Preston starts to sweat a little. I look around for suspicious activity. I see a kid with short white hair, freckles and light blue eyes. He was kind of chubby, wearing a black suit with light blue and a bolo tie. I look for his symbol, which everyone is supposed to have on their clothing. I can not find it, so I press my wrist com and tell the closest person to interrogate him with the same description.
"Will someone interrogate a kid with white hair, freckles and blue eyes. The kid is wearing a suit with no symbol, a 14.19. Someone get on that." Strangely, no one replied. The kid started looking at me. "Mr. Northwest, King Cipher, you might want to go to the panic room. A kid here has no symbol and might be an assassin." I say not breaking eye contact with the man. They start walking towards the panic room entrance. If I turn my back to the kid, all hell can break loose. I draw my gun and keep it concentrated on him until they safely get to the panic room. Why has no one came yet? McGee is supposed to be at his post. He should be one of the closest people over here. I ignore it, put my gun away and walk towards him.
"Why, Dipper Pines, I almost didn't recognize ya."
"I don't go by Dipper anymore. It's Able Pines." I say annoyed. After Mabel went missing, I stopped going by that name. She was the one who gave it to me in the first place.
"It's my understanding your sister went missing." I grab the collar of his shirt.
"What did you do to my sister!" I yell. Some people look at me. I let him go.
"Dipper, do you not remember me?" He asks and smirks. I'm so close to slapping him silly. Wait.
"Gideon." I say.
"Bravo. Mr. Military can remember a name."
"Gideon. Why are you here?"
"I was payed to kill someone here, who is possibly the cause of her disappearance." He explains.
"Well, that's okay then, but next time wear your symbol. Who is it then?"
"Her name is Becca Trust, and code named Bet. I was told she was on a mission in this house." He explains. Wait. I run over to the panic room door with Gideon following me. The door was off its hinges. I continue running down the stairs to find King Cipher and the Nortwests. There was a struggle at one point. We continue until we find a giant hole in the wall. I've stood guard down here multiple times, and that was not there before. I go through it and find them tied up and a woman with the symbol for the rebels, a stitched heart, standing in front of them demanding money or she'll kill them.
"Hey!" I yell holding my gun up towards the woman. She holds it up at me as Gideon also pulls up his gun at her. "Let them go."
"Oh, no. I have specific orders to bring in one of them." She takes four steps and stops in front of Pacifica. "You." I could see Pacifica tense up. She walks away towards me, I see Gideon sneak behind her.
"So long, friend." Gideon says and shoots her in the head. I put my gun away and untie them. Gideon snuck away.
"Well, what's your name?" Bill asks me. I finish, untying Pacifica and turn to him.
"General Able Pines, sir." I say saluting.
"Follow me." He says. I did just that. "Do you know why that girl attempted to kidnap us, mainly Pacifica?"
"No, all I know is that girl is possibly the reason my sister disappeared."
"Possibly. Anyways, there are talks, especially among the rebels, that seven years ago, when I took rule over the world, there were ten people willing enough to attempt," he starts laughing "to take me down. It's kind of like a prophecy. The ten confronted me and failed and they will return to destroy me. It's not true."
"Okay, but what, may I ask, is this going to?" I ask.
"I want you to send some of your troops out to find all the rebels, and exterminate them. Because they aren't going to stop kidnapping people until they supposedly find all ten. Or until they're killed." I guess that makes since.
"Yes, sir." I say starting to escort them back up.
