Not so romantic first date, part 3

franky, erick, and carlos all stood there shocked with what they have just heard. "its..its in the us?!..how far from us.." franky asked with fear and terror in his tone. mike just looked outside the window and tried to piece together the words he was wanting to say. "mike?..how far from us" erick asked now with some hint that the answer was not gonna be a good one they wanted to hear.

mike still stood there even with as much as hes seen on the battlefield he still knew fear and terror all too well. a few seconds later he finally sighed and turned to face everyone to deliver the news "5 miles out from the city...we had a small outbreak and luckily were quickly able to contain most of it.." mike replied with some uncertainty in his voice. carlos took a step forward and asked the question that was now on everyones mind. "you're not back for a break .. you're still on duty since its this close ...arent you?.." "yeah.." mike replied "once we got intell it was in the US and so close to my hometown secret services decided to pull me from del rasia and help take care of it here since i would know the area better than anyone else"

isaac was riding along the streets of the busy city whipping in between cars at a stop light onto the other side of the street while avoiding pedestrians and also saying hello to those he knew as he rode by them. He was riding down Central blvd. Just about to turn left onto the crosswalk as it was still on the walk icon with a few seconds left, he sharply pulled the brake handle on the right side of his handlebar immediately followed by the sound of his back tire skidding behind. He put a foot on the ground to help his turn and his bike performed a 90 degree turn with perfection immediately bringing his foot back ontothe pedal and letting go of the hand brake while the bike still had some momentum going.

Just as soon as he puthis foot back onto the peddle a nearby pedestrian had been running to him but isaac was oblivious to it since he had his headphones in his ears. He barely heard the sound of a military M925 horn screaming at him increases in volume as it got closer by the second. Time slowed down as isaac looked in sheer terror as the truck was just a few yards away from him, starting to yelp, scream and shake like one does in a state of fear ,his life flashing before his eyes. As it got a yard in front of him he closed his eyes, he was thinking this was the end he was gonna die and his body was gonna explode from the impact his blood, his limbs, and his organs were gonna be splattered not only on the truck but the entire intersection of the street. Saying he was scared would be a tremendous understatement

he mixed a yelp and shout out of surprise as he felt a pair of hands grasp the back of his hoody and the bottom of the seat. a couple fingers were gripped to the top of the seat and were just under were the base of his tail was. time quickly snapped back to reality and everything was a blur as isaac and his back were yanked hard enough to retract back onto the sidewalk and out of the way of the passing military vehicle. The stranger who had saved isaac lost his balance while pulling back and was falling to the ground, causing a chain reaction as isaac and his bike were now leaning back the front tire climbing into the air soon causing isaac to fall backwards off his bike and hit the ground with a thud next to the mysterious savior.

He leaned up using one elbow to support himself while the other arms paw occupied the back of his head rubbing it to try to releive some of the pain the fading sound of the horn turned his attention to the truck watching it pass by as the uniformed soldier in the seat gave a plain stern look at him. "fucking assholes!" he shouted as the truck passed then his attention was turned to three jeeps following behind filled with soldiers. "what the hell?" he said confused as the military vehicles were passing once they were all out of sight his thoughts of why the military was here broke as the stranger tapped his shoulder. "hey, you alright there?!" the stranger asked concerned getting up off the ground and extending a paw to help isaac up. "yeah, i think so.. thank you for saving my life back there, i thought i was a goner for sure!" isaac replied giving a smal yelp as he was standing up. "not a problem kid, the names courtney by the way" she said as isaac was stretching the last few inches to be standing at regular height again. He looked over to his bike and stood it back up beside him as he was talking to courtney. "im isaac , nice to meet you courtney... any idea what that was all about?... the military being here?" he asked as he was looking back to the distant trucks disappearing out of sight "not a clue.. but i think my brother would know.. give me your number and after i ask him ill forward it to if i can" a few minutes passed as they exchanged numbers and finished their greet before they both started to go their own ways again. "see you around isaac" courtney said in a higher voice as she was walking away with a sly interest tone in her voice "you to courtney.." isaac simply replied as he got back onto his bike making sure the path was safe and clear to cross as he peddled to the other side of the street to be back on his route home.

He shuffled one paw into his hoddy pocket and fished out his headphones putting them back into his ears as he peddled faster through the streets and down alleys. His bike was more of a bmx/mountain bike switching the gears each time he reached the currents full speed jumping over debris and giving a little shout of excitement each time he landed it his hoody had flown off his head revealing his hair and his high perked ears along with a very sly grin on his muzzle as he landed the jump and sharply hit the brakes making a perfect turn out of the alley and back into the city streets. Strangely he was able to go in and out of the traffic with little effort and flawless evading which was unusual because the streets, around this time, were always packed with cars and the melody of a busy downtown city traffic.

He brushed off the weird feeling he was getting from todays strange behavior and continued biking the last few blocks of the city when he found one of his paths he always ventured through was blocked. shrugging it off with a slight annoyance expression on his muzzle he decided to stop his bike and get off his bike and try to squeeze his way through the space to gain entrance into the alley. once he got through he got right back onto his bike and started peddling fast, it was the last path he had to take that lead to an undeground pass for pedestrians. within a minute he was back to his speed just about to go down a hill to the underground pass when all of a sudden another strange figure was coming towards him, walking in a weird way. his legs stumbling with each step he took towards isaac it wasnt until isaac tried to yield around the person that the stranger leaped towards isaac with a minacing growl.

trying his best on a last minute decision to swerve his bike to avoid hitting the pedestrian he lost control of his bik and rode right into a a pile of trash laying next to a back door. the immediate impact caused him to fall off his bike hitting some of the moved garbage before hitting the concrete floor and rolling a few feet before coming to a stop. the dangerous pedestrian however, was moving closer to him, stumbling with each step his arms like a ragdoll each time he moved them , continuously moaning and growling. isaac , trying to get up , managed to roll onto his back and once he got a glimpse of the stranger his face stared transfixed in horror at what he was seeing.

[1.5 hours later] back at frankys salon

complete silence filled the room as everyone was taken back by mikes answer. "are you sure its been contained.." franky asked, his voice trembling with each word hoping for some positive feedback to the situation. "im afraid not.." mike replied "all ive been told is that most of the hostiles were either contained or disposed of.. there was.. a couple that we werent able to restrain and were searching for them before this gets worse.."

mike just stood there as everyone now had a clear insight of how dire the situation was. It wasnt until a passing truck outside caught mikes attention and he ran over to the window. "damnit!" he shouted as he watched several military trucks and jeeps drive by. Franky and the others also watched transfixed either on the passing trucks or on mike. Just as he was about to question if the outbreak had reached the city his phone went off.

"cunningham! Perfect timing i was just about to call you myself, what the hell is go-" he was cut off by his F.O.S agent informer whose tone was more than worried. "mike! Listen, weve had an incident in the city special forces along with the city's military are taking action upon the incident as we speak. Before you freak out i assure you we will be able to have this under control very soon, weve found all but one of the escaped hostiles and are in full pursuit.. until then.. be on guard at all times" cunningham informed mike as she continued to give the new orders and update on the situation. "copy.. understood cunningham" was all franky and the rest could overhear while mike was on the phone. Once he hung up and turned to everyone he didnt waste anymore time he headed for the door to go retrieve something. "ill be right back guys" and with that he was out the door running to his motorcycle and quickly opening a pocket pulling out small briefcase and was already heading back into the shop.

"mike... what's in the case..?" franky asked worried as mike set down the case on the small glass coffe table in the waiting area and began punching in a code and placing his paw on the scanner to open the case.

ALRIGHT!! thats it for this part, so what do you all think? Who's this mysterious person isaac collided into? And what does mike have in the briefcase thats highly locked? All these and more next time. Hope you all like how the story is coming along. Comment , rate etc .
