Unsure of what she meant by getting something from the stage she had set, Sean reached for the gun he had hidden behind his back but she managed to kick it out immediately as soon as he held it in her direction. She sent another painful kick into his chest, causing Sean to roll on the ground, grabbing his chest and shrieking with pain.
“That was for dumping me you asshole!” she raged before sending another kick into his chest. “That was for kicking me off the project of my life and handing it over to you fucking girlfriend!”
Sean coughed aloud and spat out some blood before sitting up and crawling backwards to avoid any more dangerous kicks. “Susan deserved it more than you ever could… she was dedicated, focused and never goes doing half the shit you do!”
Sarah flailed her arms in the air and shook her head while holding the gun nonchalantly. “I cut corners and use back doors to get what I want, so fucking what? I get the job done for the CIA!”
“The CIA never asks you to fuck everyone you need information from!’ Sean yelled and found himself wincing in pain some more. “You gave away country secrets to the Russians and Susan almost died getting them back before things could get worse!”
She held the gun high and pointed it towards him immediately. His words definitely had struck a nerve and Sean was simply chuckling as some more blood gushed out of his mouth.
“Why did you kill Luke?” Sean asked.
She shrugged and simply answered, “The fucking Captain had begun snooping into me and I had to nip his bud”.
It sounded like the classic, cold and vindictive lady he knew.
“More so, my father told me it was both your ideas and against his fucking wish to have me kicked off the program!” she added. “I worked my ass off for that project… you knew it was bound to shape the future of the CIA for years and you stole it from me!”
Sean coughed and fell on his back with his breath slowing. “The President… the President was in danger and the security of the country was going down the drain with the information Russia conned off of you!”
Sarah lost it and raced towards him, shoving Sean to the ground fiercely and pointing the gun in his face.
“I will blow your brains out!” she threatened. “I was going to fix it and you know it! I was going to intercept the bastard before he handed the information to his contacts!”
Sean didn’t care to listen as he thought of how best to maneuver the lady who had outsmarted him.
“That wasn’t really an RPG back there was it?” Sean asked, trying to figure out where he had missed it.
Smiling indicatively of how right he was, she answered, “You recognize the Nano trackers under development by the agency years ago… a friend of mine happened to lend me some”.
“You mean you conniving father”, Sean retorted.
His words landed him in trouble as she whacked him hard across the face and sent him ramming his head into the floor. “He blames me… he blames you and Susan for putting the one stain he has on his career which is having a daughter who almost crumbled his dear country’s security”.
Sean cursed his luck for not seeing things for what they were earlier.
“He flushed me out for you”, Sean giggled. “He fucking flushed me out for you”.
Sarah nodded her head and got to her feet before walking over to where the unconscious Jake was. Dragging him over with grunts and show of exhaustion moving the man, she tucked her gun behind her and placed Jake a few feet from Sean before beginning to try and awaken him by slapping him.
“Rise and shine darling!” she would say with each smack into his face.
Jake awakened to the sight of Sean bleeding and gasping for breath.
“Looks like your brilliant plan didn’t come out well now did it?” Jake mocked him before lunging for the man with a kick.
Sarah managed to keep them both apart while retrieving the gun and pointing it in Jake’s direction. “Don’t make me shoot you”.
Startled and unable to hide his expression, Jake fumed, “That’s my gun! That’s my fucking gun!”
She took a good look at it and smiled. “I thought it would make a fitting end when I nicked it off your place”.
She had just admitted being responsible for ransacking his home and it made him livid. His eyes shone brightly with rage and his veins doused with adrenalin as he wanted a piece of her.
“You are dead!’ he promised her. “You are dead you hear me!?”
She didn’t seem to care as she knelt closer to him and pinned his left hand to the ground with her knee. “This has to be perfect, or so help me God, I will blow your brains out!”
Sean found himself dragging in and out of consciousness before settling for the latter and staring at Jake struggling with Sarah as she tried to pin his hand around the gun and aim it in his direction.
“Let him go darn it!” Sean yelled, crawling over and hurling his entire weight forward and collapsing on Sarah.
A loud bang erupted as silence became of everything around the trio. Sarah barely moved but continued to stare into the widened eyes of Sean. Jake scrambled away, forcing Sean to move and roll on his side with the gun he had managed to retrieve from Sarah now in his hands. He had a second hole in his stomach and could barely keep his hands steady as Sarah confidently got to her feet and knocked it out of his hands.
“That wasn’t the way I wanted it to go but I’ll settle for anything as long as it is your death”, she smiled wickedly and pulled him closer by his collar.
Staring into his slowly dying eyes, she planted her lips into his firmly
