Case 18: The Captain's Son Part II

Scarlet woke up early in the morning, she felt sick to her stomach, literally, she is leaning to the bathroom wall dripping in sweat and the foul bitter taste of vomit in her mouth. She sigh and scratch her long hair, thinking in everything she is putting herself through, one thing for sure is that Aron is not leaving her side once she is back from this secrete mission in stopping the Captain’s son, Anthony Joe Luther, a youngster that believes to be the soon king of the mafia. Scarlet is pretty sure that Anthony just wanted to have his father’s attentions, but going to the extreme in hunting the former Lord Mafia Alexander Angelus is another story, and as long has he has her on his side, he is not afraid to use her as a hit man. Scarlet stood up, took a quick bath and brush her teeth like three times, she suit up in her tight leather pants, a bottom up white shirt, she straps a black corset on her waist and long high knee black boots. Scarlet brush her hair and made a long high pony tail, she puts a little of make-up and she is ready to go. Once she is out of the room she walks toward the main room, when she was follow by one of Anthony’s bodyguards, Scarlet look behind her, and concluded that Anthony doesn’t even trust her completely, when she arrived, Antony is giving up orders to the other guys, then he turns around, his appearance is almost the same as Captain Luther, only younger, his brown color hair, not as muscular as Aron, but not thin either, he is looking at Scarlet from head to toe. 

“Shadow, how are you feeling after losing that fight with the other dragons?” glare Anthony to Scarlet 

Scarlet just stood still and with a blank expression on her face “I was took by surprise, the Dragons had help, otherwise I would had taken them” said Scarlet leaving the tranquilizer on his desk “If you excuse me I have things to attempt to before we attack the Angelus inc." said Scarlet as she walks away 

Anthony looks at her, specially the bottom part of her back, Scarlet left the room and walk toward the roof to get some fresh air, she call out to Nicolas on the secrete phone she has hidden. 

"Hello" said Nicolas 

“Nick is me, I need you to do me a favor, tell Edward that is coming soon, max in three to four days, I got to go, just tell Eddy what I just told you” said Scarlet as she hung up 

Nicolas call Edward to come down, when he arrived, so did Aron, Titania, Otto and Captain Luther, Nicolas told Edward and the entire Gang what Scarlet told him.

“Jesus Christ, so soon?” said the Captain 

“Yes and Scarlet can’t give you more set ups or keep them busy for any longer, she has to act in the moment that she and Anthony are alone with Angelus, but the other Dragons has to be in the same room too” said Nicolas 

Aron though for a minute, he started to wonder what would Scarlet do if she was in the same room as he, the other’s voices started to fade in the background, he started to focused so much that he didn’t realize that he is in a blue space with a yellow water on the floor and he is standing there, the next moment he feels a familiar touch, he open his eyes and Scarlet is there in her full dragon transformation, as well as he is too, he touch her to made sure that he isn’t dreaming. 

“This is real?” said in confusion Aron 

“Is a place where only the dragons can create and connect, right now you just call me and I answer, not because we are one, but because you crave for me” answer Scarlet 

“I don’t know what to do? You are always the one with the ideas and plans, I am just the one that follows it, I would do anything you ask me to do” said Aron touching Scarlet’s face 

“We need to be in the room together, right?” ask Scarlet “But at the same time we need to trick Anthony and I just got the right tool...Live Bait...look into your allies and form a plane babe, I know  you can give the idea and order. I love you” said Scarlet before she breaks the connection 

Aron open his eyes, he walks toward Nicolas computer, looking for Alexander’s field, the rest of the team look at him weirdly, even the Captain. When Aron found a picture of Alexander Angelus he made that everyone look at it. 

“Ok, we got less than three to four days to have a big plan and executed before the enemies attack. We have Alexander Angelus is the main target, what we know about him?” said Aron 

“He is 6′4 tall, black hair color, blue eyes and he is a vampire that live more than 350 years” said Nicolas 

“That is what I wanted to hear, what if Alexander isn’t in his office the moment its attack, but at the same time he is” ask Aron to his team 

“I get it, we don’t need to risk Mr. Angelus life if we replace him with someone with the same physical characteristics” said Edward 

“That is brilliant and all but where are we going to replace a twin for Mr. Angelus in less than 72 to 96 hours?” said Otto

“We don’t have to” said the Captain “Aron how tall are you?” ask the Captain

“6′4 ft., all we need is a make-up artist and a well suit that screams Angelus” said Aron

The entire team didn’t waist anytime in chit chatting, they started to made some phone calls and creating an fake ID for Aron to become Alexander Angelus. The next day Titania enter the lab with field in everything that Alexander Angelus does in his daily life, but when she looks up, she sees Alexander himself there, she is startle for a bit, try to make some polite conversation with him, that is until Alexander got close to her.

“Do I really look like him?” ask Alexander

Titania look very confuse, that is until she see in his eyes the difference of blue eyes, and she started to hit his shoulder, realizing that Alexander (the one in front of her) is actually Aron in disguise. Aron laugh hard by Titania’s childish behavior, now they know that their plan can work, in order to do so, they need to put it into the test, but before that they need to speak with the real deal. The dragons headed to the Angelus Medical Inc. where they ask for a chat with Alexander Angelus himself, once they arrived at the office the secretary was against it until she rise her head up and saw Aron, she is melted by his handsomeness, when she was going to speak to Aron, Mr. Angelus arrived, he was asking who they are, before he attacks them, Aron presented himself and the other dragons, Alexander understood and let them pass.

Otto look at the secretary “Sorry babe, he is taken and mated, maybe someone like me would ease your pain” he wink at her 

Titania grabs him by the ear “You sir have a Girlfriend and her name is Brenda”

“Ow ow ow ow" said Otto (That is right, Brenda the oracle is Otto’s girl) 

“Do you have any idea what an oracle can do if she predict something like this?” said Titania

“Oh come on is a harmless chat” said Otto when his phone ring “Hello?” said Otto 

"You sir are sleeping in the couch tonight and if you flirt with the second secretary, you sleep in the yard" said Brenda on the other line and hung up 

Titania smirk at him “Told you so” 

Alexander walks them to his desk and sat down, the Dragons stood in front of his desk hoping to help them in this misunderstood war with Antonio Luther.

“Tell me Knights what do I own this pleasant visit? Let me assure you that I don’t do the mafia, not since 1970′s” said Alexander 

“We are aware Mr. Angelus, is just some simple questions and some helpful cooperation of your part” said Titania

“I am all ears” said Alexander 

“Mr. Angelus have you seen this person before?” ask Otto showing the picture of the Captain Luther

“Yes, this is Detective Luther, I meet him in 1969, a year before I retire, the youngest detective I ever meet in my 350 years, we became good friends in the end, is something wrong with the Detective?” ask Alexander 

“Is not about the Captain, is about his son” said Aron 

Alexander sigh in relieved, and happiness knowing that his friend became Captain and that he is in good health “The what this is all about?” ask Alexander

Otto place a picture of Antonio on Alexander’s desk “His son, Antonio Luther grew up with stories of his father taking down Mafia guys, even the time when he was about to take you to justice, but since you became a business man, and friends with his father, he grew angry at you, now the kid is a mafia of justice and wants to take you down despite that you don’t go to that world anymore” said Aron 

“What do you suggest Agents?” ask Alexander

“Our insider has inform us that his plan will be executed in two weeks, we form a plan ourselves, but we need your cooperation in giving me access to your home or office, you see we manage to replace you a replacement for the time being, until the fight is over, we need you as safe as possible, so we are going to send you to the SCIS building, Captain Luther will be the one protecting you, until we catch his son. There is an issue, we want to test your replacement from someone in particular, if you don’t mind will you stand in that hidden chair until we are finish?” ask Aron 

Alexander nods his head and sat in the hidden chair behind the door, Titania and Otto proceed to dress Aron into Alexander, one they are done, Alexander looks at Aron from top to bottom.

“Is just looking myself in the mirror, I am surprise” said Alexander 

“Now the moment of truth” said Aron as he sat down and waited

A secretary enters the office, leaving some papers on the desk, she ask if he needed anything and he dismiss her. Then another secretary enter into the office to announce his agenda, then other directors and employees enter the office for some issues, Alexander is watching everything from the hidden chair, he is amaze how Aron is handling things as the CEO of his company. Then the new secretary he hire a week ago came in, one that he cannot take his eyes off, the one that he wanted to bed her since she came in, he know her as Mariana Black. 

“Is there anything you need sir?” ask Mariana

Aron look at the secretary, he let his pen down and look at her from top to bottom “There is something?” said Aron with Alexander’s voice 

Mariana look at him confuse as Aron stood up and walks around the desk “I want some nice homemade sushi, with a nice ice tea and a Dragon that would warm my bed all night for the past two months that I had been lonely and with blue b***s" said Aron as Alexander 

Alexander on the other hand became confuse and a bit irritated by his action on Mariana, the women he desires “What are you doing Agent Kingston” whisper to himself Alexander

“I am not sure what are you talking about, sir?” said Mariana

“That is a good disguise, Scarlet” said Aron 

Alexander became really confuse, Scarlet? Her name is Mariana a women he hires by her skills and beauty, but he is pretty sure that her name is not Scarlet, that is until he heard the conversation just now. 

Mariana look at Alexander (Aron) in the eyes, she could see a flinch of golden color in it, that is until she smile at him and caresses his face “Aron? Is that really you?” ask Mariana 

Aron grabs her by the waist and gave her a long passionate kiss, one that she responds. Alexander became really irritated and came out of his hiding place; he walks toward the kissing couple. 

“What is the meaning of this?” ask Alexander with a little irritation on his voice 

Aron stops kissing her “Sorry Mr. Angelus, I couldn’t control myself with my mate” said Aron with a smile 

“Mate?” ask Alexander 

Mariana look at Alexander “Is a pleasure to meet you Mr. Angelus” she took of the wig and the glasses “My name is Scarlet Walker, I am a SCIS Forensic Scientist and the Black Dragon of the Knight’s team” said Scarlet 

Alexander is shock to see that not just Aron manage to fool everyone in the building, but Scarlet as well “I don’t understand” 

“Sorry for the inconvenience, but I am the informant that they were talking about, and the one who will help Antonio Luther get inside the building to murder you and take control of the Mafia world, in order for me to protect you, I needed to be inside the building, that is why I have mask myself as a women human. I never suspected that you took the same idea, I am proud of you Aron, although I never would had suspected that you were Aron, that disguise could work. How did you know it was me?” ask Scarlet 

“The last name is Black and your old School glasses” answer Aron 

Alexander never suspected that the women he desire is already mated with the man that is going to save his life, not to mention that the mention of School, could only mean that they know each other very well at some young age. He sigh in frustration and horror to almost destroy a well-built trust and bond between them. He lets her go to her lover and continue to work their plan into motion, Aron decide to stay with Alexander and keep him protected wield Scarlet return to the mafia base and the other dragon to secure the plan. 

That night in Alexander’s house, Aron is walking the perimeter and making sure that nothing is going to happen, Alexander is working at the computer and some papers for the company and importation of the medical products. Once Aron is done with he patrols he enters the kitchen when one of the young maid enter and look at him, she is drooling by his handsomeness, Aron chuckle as he walks out of the kitchen. The three day later, Aron woke up early and went for a run, since he can’t exercise with Scarlet in the morning, he has to replace by working out, he enter the kitchen shirtless, the same maid enter and this time she making a cascade of drool, then she looks at the dragon mark on his shoulder, the color gold and with black lines on it. 

“I like your tattoo” said the maid

Aron look at his shoulder “This is not a tattoo Miss, this is a mark” answer Aron 

“A mark of what?” flirted the maid 

“It shows that I am the Golden Dragon and that I am taken by the Black Dragon” answer Aron walking away 

“Isn’t the Black Dragon a guy?” follow the maid hoping the they are just friend dragons

“Nope, the Black Dragon is my best friend, lover and the women of my dreams; also this marks proves that in the supernatural world, I am marry to her and only her” said Aron as he walks the stairs, leaving a broken heart maid on the bottom

Alexander heard everything that Aron said to the maid, he also took a small peak on the mark on his shoulders. Later that day Alexander is working on his office wield Aron is making some errands in the SCIS agency, Scarlet dress as Mariana enters the office leaving some documents for him to sign. 

“Can I ask you something Miss Black or Walker or whatever?” said Alexander 

“Mr. Angelus, I would like to continue calling me Mrs. Black otherwise the plan will fail” said Scarlet 

“Of course, I was wondering about the Dragon mark, do you have yours?” ask Alexander 

“Yes I have my own” said Scarlet raising a bit her shirt showing her Black Dragon Mark with a tint of Gold in it, then she quickly tug it inside her skirt “Why it has a golden tint? And why does Aron has the same thing?” said Scarlet 

Alexander look at her confuse “What?” 

“That is what you are thinking right now. When a Dragon is mated, the color of the other dragon or supernatural being is imprinted in the mark, which shows who I belong to” answer Scarlet 

“How long have you known Mr. Kingston?” ask Alexander 

“Since High School, only then he wasn’t the Golden Dragon, but I was a Black Dragon since I was 15 years old, I have more experience that he does, but that is the thing about couples, we get to learn from our partners. Would that be all?” said Scarlet 

Alexander nods his head and continues to work, and then Aron enter the office, kiss Scarlet on the lips and she left to work. Aron is making sure that everything is wire up and there cameras every corner of the office, Alexander’s keep making questions about his life, in the end Aron and him became quick friends. A day before the attack, Alexander has notice that Scarlet is a bit green on the nose and she keeps getting dizzy from time to time, she said that she is alright, but he doesn’t believe her, that is when he figure out a different scent on her, and knows what is going on, when he was about to confront her, she looks at him with dead serious red eyes, warning him to not tell anything, Alexander knows that as a vampire her is the top number 1 dangerous demon, but int he supernatural world, the dragons are the superior and she is one that they try to avoid as much as possible. 

The day of the attack came, early in the morning the agents of the SCIS are hiding in the parking lot, Aron is in position, Titania is hidden in the security camera room, Otto is outside as the gardener, and Scarlet is in position as the protector and the traitor, something she doesn’t enjoy at all, but she has a micro ear phone to keep contact with the agents, as Alexander is in a truck with the hidden cameras that Aron install with his old friend the Captain Luther. 

“Is everyone in positions?” said Edward 

"Agent Kingston in position" said Aron 

"Why do I have to the gardener?" ask Otto

“We need someone to see if they arrived or not" said Titania

"Remember they will arrived as business men, one of them as a tattoo in the neck that should be visible to you, the shape is like an Indian eagle" said Scarlet 

A car pull over the building, Otto whisper that is show time to them, Titania manage to see him in the cameras, they are walking toward the entrance, both Otto and Titania see they guy that Scarlet is mentioning. Scarlet receive a text message from Antonio, then she whisper that she is going to execute the mafia plan, Aron mention that she has to act natural if they want for their plan to work. Scarlet walk toward the elevator waiting for Antonio, she felt a bit dizzy, then when the bell chin, she recuperate fast, Antonio smirk at her and she bows to welcome him, she guided him to Alexander’s office, once she enters opening the door for Antonio. 

“You two stay and guard the door” said Antonio to the guards 

Alexander (Aron) raise his head angry “What is the meaning of this Mariana?” said Aron 

Scarlet slap him hard “Silence Mr. Angelus, you are speaking to the future Mafia Lord Antonio Luther” said Scarlet with her evil act 

Antonio sat down in front of him then she smirk at him “Now then” he took out his gun with silver bullets “Let’s talk” 

For some reason Aron and Scarlet felt something bad about the gun, A few days ago Scarlet manage to take one bullet from the gun and send it to Nicolas for analysis, they are still waiting for the results. They talk about the mafia world and Antonio’s plans to conquer it, making New Glacier the mass production of the ultimate Drug and continue his legacy. Aron spoke calm ad with interest until he said the signal word to Antonio, one that Scarlet knew what to do next. She closed her eyes and creates two shadow figures of herself outside the door and knock the guards out in silence, tying them up and whisper in the ear piece that is clear to attack. Edward gave the signal. Otto stood up and walk toward the guards outside and in the first and second floor, he use his plants to tie them up and knock them with each other, then he started to fight with the other in the floor knocking them out and tying them with woods, on the second floor he use the leaves to cut through the window and slice some of the enemy down, making them impossible to move and grab some weapons, he proceed to kick and punch them to unconsciousness. Titania walk out the CVC room, she lower the temperature of both the floors above hers, making sure not to reach the floor where Aron, Scarlet and Antonio are, the enemy started to shake and felt weak by the low temperature, some of them are experience of Hypothermia and frostbites, when she arrives at the floor with most of the enemies numb and collapsing on the floor, she proceeds to knock the other out. Scarlet’s shadow is fast fighting and electrifying the enemy on the bottom floor and the floor the real her is, leaving the real her, Aron and Antonio in the main office. When Aron was about to use his flames on Antonio to cause heatstroke, Antonio act quickly and shot Aron on the chest, Scarlet widen her eyes as she sees her boyfriend been shot and bleeding. 

“I thought  that silver bullets were not going to work on you, so I decided to upgrade the bullet to kill you faster, but I guess those 350 years you have are making you a bit conscious and let you resist for a small amount of time” said Antonio 

Then the news that Scarlet was afraid of ”Scarlet if you are hearing me, the bullet you sent me analysis, the results came, is made with the same material that Paul James Myers use on the knife that stab you last year!" said Nicolas in the ear piece

Scarlet started to hyperventilate, she just saw Antonio Luther shot Aron in the chest with that bullet, Aron stood up and fell down to the floor, Antonio turns around to replace Scarlet in her full transformation, glaring at him. The Captain and Edward lost connection with Scarlet and Aron, so they got out and rush toward Alexander’s office. 

Scarlet is dodging Antonio’s shots, she manage to fast pace her moves and poke one of his nerves in the arm making him drop the gun, she jump on him pining him on the neck in the ground, she flat her hand, fill with electric flowing on it, she was about to stab him on the chest, Antonio never felt so much fear running on his veins. Then Alexander came and pulls her off him, she is screaming and struggling as Captain Luther injects her with a suppression. Scarlet turns back to normal and now she is crying in pain and grief, the other dragons rush inside to help her. 

“Take Aron to the Hospital Now!” said the Captain “And take Scarlet with you too, she is in no condition to stay here, she has to be by his side!” order the Captain

Edward came inside and cuff Antonio “Antonio Luther you are under arrest, for the attempt murder of Alexander Angelus and homicide of Aron Kingston, anything you say would be use against you in the court of law” said Edward 

They both stop in front of the Captain “Why did you have to come like this? Pray for God, if that man dies, I will not hold her back” said the Captain 

“So you send her to spy on me?” ask Antonio

“I send her to protect you until I manage an arrest, I never thought that you would attempt murder and put one of my best men in the hospital” said the Captain 

“Best Men?” ask Antonio confuse

“The man that you just shot is an Agent of the SCIS, the Golden Dragon, Aron Kingston, disguise as Alexander Angelus, also the women I send you, she is Scarlet Walker, the Black Dragon, a Forensic Scientist of the SCIS, and she is the mate of that Golden Dragon. If Aron dies, Scarlet will hunt you and kill you for his death and I won’t stop her for it, take him away”  

Scarlet is crying her eyes out and hyperventilating again, she is pacing around the operation room, Dr. Stellar, who previously manage to save her life with the stabbing wound on her chest is inside to help the surgeons to save Aron’s life. Titania and Otto are trying to calm her down, then Edward came toward them, Scarlet ran to his arms and cry even harder, Edward is trying to calm her down, but it seems to make it even worst, then she started to mumble and say things without scent and then she faint on her brother’s arms, everyone started to take call her out and trying to wake her up, they believe that Aron and Scarlet are connected and that whatever happens to Aron will happen to Scarlet, after a few more minutes Scarlet came to, shee drank a bit of water and ate a piece of candy. Hours later, Dr. Stellar came out from the OR, the entire gang stood up and Scarlet fast walk toward him with hopeful eyes and red tear marks on her face.

“He is going to be alright, his life isn’t in danger and he is resting right now, thankfully the bullet miss his heart” said Dr. Stellar 

Scarlet didn’t listen the rest what Dr. Stellar said, she rush toward him, entering inside the room, she sees him sleeping and resting, Scarlet got near him and hold his almost cold hand, she cry again this time happy tears, Aron woke up, he is a little sleepy and looks at her face. 

“You look horrible” Aron whisper at her 

Scarlet chuckle and laugh “You gave me a heart attack when I saw you getting shot” she whisper back at him 

Aron sigh as he touches her face slowly “I don’t know what I would do without you Aron...” she sniffs “...We  don’t know what we would do without you” said Scarlet 

Aron look at her confuse by the word «we», then Scarlet grabs his hand and place it on her belly “we” she said 

Aron manage to understand her words now “Scarlet are you?” ask Aron 

“Yes Aron, I am pregnant, is our baby” said Scarlet 

“Our Baby...I am going to be a Father? I’m going to be Dad” said Aron happy and with joyful tear on his face

Aron pushes Scarlet away confuse and a bit of anger showing on his face “You are pregnant! And working in a dangerous place!” said Aron 

“Bad moment?” said Scarlet

“You and I are going to have a long conversation, no scratch that, and argument about this, Scarlet Hope Walker” said and angry Aron 

“Wow, look at the time, I better go Nicolas must be finishing up with his report” said Scarlet as she stood up and fast walk out of the hospital room 

“I am not done talking to you Scarlet!” said Aron 

“Scarlet! Scarlet Hope Walker get back here this instant!!!” shouted Aron at the empty room

As Scarlet makes a run for it.
