Brendan's father-


I coughed as I awoke in a strange room.


Immediately memories came flooding back, I sat up quickly and extremely painfully.



"Don't worry," said a voice, "you're safe now," says a commanding.


I looked to my left to see a figure dressed from head to toe in black with a sword strapped to his back, I looked to my right to see my wife in a hospital bed of sorts, I looked down to see I was in the same type of bed.


"Who are you?!" I barked looking at the figure.


 The figure held up his black gloved hand, "calm down sir, I just saved your life, you lost a lot of blood."


"What do yah mean calm down! My son is missi-"


"I know where your son is!"


With those words I fell silent, it felt as if a hole had been punched in my chest, "but right bow we need to focus on one thing," the figure said.


"And that would be?"


The figure stood up, "making it out alive."




.....


Brendan-



Tick Tock had just finished a series of terrible tests, he coughed as he sat down on a rolling chair and wheeled up next to me.


"Brendan do you believe in ghosts?"


I turned my head I wanted to spit in his G-damn face, but I couldn't, truth was I didn't have the energy.


"No," I finally answered.


"Well I do, you know Brendan I am haunted by one ghost in particular but see it's not malevolent or evil it's just a spirit, the soul of one who was, once! There but now is no more."


"The spirit of someone you killed?" I asked slightly intrigued slightly disgusted.


"No no no see Brendan! That's what surprises me I am not haunted by someone I killed but by someone I loved..." Tick Tock paused for a second and it was strange cause I something in his eyes, usually, Tick Tocks eyes were blank...like a blank stare but this time they were soft almost as if a great sadness had overtaken him.


I wasn't satisfied with this, however, I was mostly surprised and I had trouble imagining anyone loving Tick Tock, it was like loving the devil, although some people did like the devil so I guess it was on an even worse level.


RING RING RING!


"Tick Tock reached into his pocket and pulled out a flip phone, he smiled as he picked it up.


"Yes?" He said voice devoid of emotion.


"We've pinpointed him and are moving in," I heard over the loud phone earpiece speaker on the phone.


"On my way," said Tick Tock.

Brendan's father


It had been five minutes and this mysterious person had handed me a rifle, "you may feel weak but I trust we can get out of this, just be glad no bones were broken on your body," said the figure, "we currently have a small army moving on our location so," said the figure pausing to pick up a duffel bag and a pistol, "we need to get a move on."


"But my wife-"


"You were in the military man! Special forces for christ sake pick up the girl! It might be a little hard but you can shoot and carry someone right! So do it now we have exactly thirty seconds!"


"What?" I asked baffled.


"Twenty-nine, twenty-eight," said the figure counting down slowly.


I quickly weighed my options, best I figured this man was currently my only option, I had to stick with him.


I walked over to my wife in a fireman's carry, I held back the scream as my shoulder flared in pain!


"Three, two, and one!"



BOOM!


I struggled to stay on my feet as something shook the building!


"Alright!" Yelled the figure! "Let's move!"




15nth chapter  Hero's of a Word We've Forgotten (part 15)Tick Tock-
I sat in the command center watching the screen, dozens of cameras lined the Valen city streets all perfect for watching a beautiful battle.
Tick Tick had to admit, sometimes just watching fighting was enjoyable.
"This is alpha squad moving in."
I watched as five of pur men who were pout in the open brought their foots up and kicked open the warehouse door.
BOOM!
A bomb went off killing them all instantly.
I smiled, "well played Hisato, wellll played."
"He's moving around back I repeat he's moving round back!" Yelled my men through the radios.
I looked on as the men in the command centers hands flew across their keyboard until we were focused on the back side of the ware house.
It was chaos...beautiful chaos, pur men were losing as I had expected even though he had two people slowing him down.
However as I analyzed Hisato up and down I realized...something I had never noticed before.
His fighting style, no no wait only a few knew about that...and in order for him to know the
