The bartender filled my glass with tequila, and I slid the money across
the bar toward him. Sitting hunched over my drink, I let my long blonde
hair fall forward to hide my face from the other patrons. This was one of the
reasons why I chose this place. The booze was cheap, and everyone left me
alone. This wasn’t somewhere you came to pick someone up for the night.
It was the pit you came to drown your sorrows and forget about the world.
Even if it refused to forget about you.
When someone sat on the stool next to me, I didn’t pay them any
attention. Not even when the familiar scent of them registered. He ordered a
beer, and the bartender put another tequila in front of me.
“I told you if I ever saw you again, I’d kill you. Buying me a drink won’t
exactly change my mind,” I told him.
General Philip Holden. The biggest bastard I’d ever met in my life. He
had to be pushing fifty now. He had the kind of face that made you want to
punch him in the sorry excuse of a dick he had, and that was before he even
spoke to you. He was a one-star General the last time I had the misfortune
of speaking to him.
“I need your help,” he told me, staring straight ahead.
“The last time I helped you, you left me for dead in the middle of Siberia.
I seem to recall that was the same time I told you I’d kill you if I ever saw
you again,” I sneered. “You’ve got stupid in your old age if you thought I
wouldn’t follow through on that, Philip.”
I knocked back the tequila. I’d had enough that it didn’t even burn as it
went down anymore.
Sitting up straight, I took in my surroundings. The bar had cleared out,
and even the bartender had left. Leaving just me, General Dickhead and
three Army rangers pointing M4s at me.
Now that was just plain funny, and I threw my head back and laughed.
“You always were fucking stupid.” I laughed wryly, catching one of the
rangers giving a slight smile. Yeah, that one knew what I meant. “I should
be insulted that you only brought three.”
I snagged the tequila bottle from the other side of the bar before leaning
back on one elbow to survey the scene in front of me while I drank straight
from the bottle. I was stealing their booze; no point adding insult to injury
by making them wash my glass as well.
The smiling ranger dropped his weapon slightly, and his gaze flicked
across to the General. The other two stoically held their position.
Interesting, this one was thinking for himself. He knew more about what
was going on than the others.
“We have a team that’s gone missing, and I need you to retrieve them,”
the General said.
“I don’t work for you,” I pointed out. “What makes you think I’m going
to help?”
