Chapter Twenty: True Loyalties

“Then tell me, because I must have missed it somewhere. What the hell do you want, Shelia?” Abby's eyes widen for a moment as she heard the stressed word said with so much venom. The last time he had called her Shelia, it was filled with admiration and love. . . the difference was down right frightful.

“I just want you to live,” she said softly with a whisper. Wally then completely turned his head to look at her, confusion was written all over his face with the confession. He wanted to ask what she meant, but before he could say another word, an unexpected voice came for the shadows.

“The answer is simple, bug.” Hoagie stepped out into the light, his black shades reflected the moon's light as it sat on the top of his head. “She wants to do what ever makes me happy,” he stated arrogantly. “Isn't that right, baby?” He slipped a hand around her waist as Abby titled her cheek in his direction as he leaned down to give her a quick kiss.

“Yeah,” was her answer, her eyes not leaving Wally as his narrowed at them.

“And what would make me happy, is seeing you dead,” he made clear to the other. “Whenever you're ready,” he told her before walking to the tree that Wally had fallen out of and leaned against it with his arms crossed. He wanted to make sure he was good distance so that he could truly appreciate the situation. Plus, he wanted his suit to stay nice. Blood was a hassle to get out.

Hoagie's meeting he had told Abby about had gone well, better than expected, and so like he promised he made his way home only to find it in complete chaos when he arrived. When Tommy told him that Abby was taken, he didn't wait to hear the whole story, he bolted out of the house to search for her himself. Relief flooded his body as he saw her underneath the tree anxiously looking her.

She jumped when he suddenly pulled her into her arms. He then asked what she was doing and she quickly told him that she was going to surprise Beatles. He was pleased with the answered and now as he watched the scene before him a smile crept onto his face, she was the perfect girl and would make the perfect wife for him.

His smile then faded as the seconds slowly ticked by. He then noticed how Abby's hand shook slightly. Hoagie sighed as he remembered this would be her first time. “Relax, Abby,” he told her soothly. “Just take a deep breath and slowly squeeze the trigger as you exhale,” he instructed.

Wally shook his head from side to side. “You don't want to do this. And you know it,” Wally began. “Put the gun down, Numbuh Five,” he asked her.

“What the hell did he call you?” Hoagie asked as he pushed himself off the tree.

“Nothing,” she called back to him. “Nothing,” she repeated softly.

“Then shoot him,” Hoagie replied.

“You told me, you loved me,” Wally reminded her gently. “Was that a lie?”

“No,” she breathed.

“Then put the gun down.”

“I can't. Hoagie will be angry,” she explained.

“Abby, I'm waiting,” Hoagie grew impatient. “You want to prove that you love me?” he asked. “Show me your worthy enough to be my wife and rule this family? Then do what I say!” he demanded. Wally then gasped as he heard the familiar sound of a gun cock. Hoagie smiled. “Now, that's a step in the right direction.”

“You won't shoot me,” Wally predicted. Abby said nothing as she watched Wally take a step back as he took a look around him. “Because I do know you.” He took another step.

“Stop moving,” Hoagie said as he watched Wally take another step. Wally then made eye contact with Hoagie that night time for the first time, who in turned figured out exactly what he was going to do. “Abby, shot!” he yelled, but it was too late, Wally had taken off towards the woods. “Damn it!” Hoagie grabbed the gun from Abby and wildly began to shoot towards the running figure.

“Hoagie, no!” Abby cried out as she forced his arm down.

It was reflects that took over Hoagie as other hand came up struck Abby across the face. He gasp loudly as he watch her fall to the ground were she hand came up to her nose, blood spilling from the crack of her fingers. “Oh my god!” He knelt down and put his hand over both of her. “Let me see,” he asked of her, but it was almost as if she couldn't hear him as her eyes swelled with tears. “Let me see!” he said louder and she finally, but slowly let down her hand. Hoagie sighed before he gently touched her nose, Abby whimpered and winced in pain. “Good,” he said in relief. “It's not broken.” He laid down the gun. “I'm so sorry, baby,” he told her sincerely. “I didn't mean it.”

His eyes then narrowed. “You do have feelings for him, don't you?” he accused, his chest tightening a bit with the discovery. “Go back to the house,” he ordered. “Find Tom.” He then rose, taking the gun with him. “There's something I have to do.” He then made his way towards the woods, with one objective in mind.

OoOoO

Wally nearly collapsed against the nearest tree as he hung from it, his breath quick as he tried to fill his lungs with air. He then turned over, his back now against the truck as he slowly slid down. His face grimace in pain as he tightly held his side. He then pulled his hand away and looked down at it. His hand was completely covered in his own blood. Hoagie had unfortunately gotten in a good shot as Wally had been trying to escape. “Crud,” he whispered to himself, as he realized he was losing blood, too much blood.

It had only been a little over a minute, but he already felt weak and light headed, but he knew he had to get back up before, “Come out, come out wherever you are,” too late, Hoagie was already close on his tail. Wally let out a silent scream as he forced himself up and began to run again.

He didn't know where he was going, he had absolutely no plan, and had no clue how he was going to get out of this. Wally then heard several distant shots and instantly thought about Gavin and the others and how they were fairing within the Senthos stronghold. But Wally had faith in Gavin and team and knew they would be fine, but he, he was on unfamiliar ground, being pursued by someone who held a deep grudge against him, without any weapons to defend himself. Things were not looking good.

Wally doubled over, bracing his hand against another tree as he took a very short moment to rest. He turned quickly, his eyes wide as he heard the rustle of leaves behind him. He pushed himself off the tree, but stumbled and crashed to the ground. He couldn't help the cry of pain that escaped his lips as the shock of it ripped throw his body like lightening.

Hoagie immediately paused when he heard the cry, a smile slicked across his features as he turned towards it as he picked up his pursuit. He knew he was on the right track when he saw splashes of blood, not only on the ground, but on nearby trees and plants Wally has pushed his way through. “Why don't you just give up!” Hoagie yelled, grabbing Wally's attention. “You can't run forever,” he let him know. “Thought you could just fuck with my girl and get away it?” His voice was furious. “Thought you could tear my brother's heart in two and everything would be alright, huh?” He heard someone fall in front of him and shot in that general direction.

“Fuck!” Wally cried out as the bullet went flying passed his head as he tried to pick himself off the ground. He was then taken by surprised when he felt Hoagie's foot make contact with his already sore chest. “Ahhh!” he yelled out as he was kicked several times.

Eventually, Wally ended up flat on his back with Hoagie holding him in place with his foot. “So, tell me,” the brown eyed boy began as he pointed his gun down towards Wally's head. “How does it feel, nothing you're only moments for deaths?” Wally said nothing as he struggled to remove Hoagie off of him, but it was a losing battle as his vision was already going black from the amount of blood that he had lost. “Are you done yet?” Hoagie asked as Wally had finally ended his struggle and just lay there breathing heavily.

Wally then closed his eyes and took what he knew would be his last breath as he heard Hoagie cocked the gun in his hold. Wally jumped when he heard the shot rang out and the pressure that once laid on his chest was removed. “Shit!” Hoagie cried, but then said in a whispered, “Abby?”

Wally opened his eyes to find Abby standing in the shadows with his other gun pointed towards Hoagie as she had just shot his out of his hand. “Get away from him!” she demanded. “Now!”

“Abby, what the hell are you doing?” Hoagie asked as he took a few steps towards her.

“Don't come any closer,” she told him. “I don't want to shoot you.” Her hands shook visibly as she held the gun with both.

Hoagie's face showed his annoyance with her. “Put the gun down now, Abby.” He shook his head from side to side. “You know as well as I do you won't shot me.” He then looked at the gun he had dropped laying down on the ground. He went to pick it up, but was forced back as a bullet when whizzing by.

“Just leave it there and walk away. . . please,” Abby asked of him.

“So, your true colors finally come out, huh?” Hoagie stood his ground. “You really are choosing this piece of filth over me?”

“Yes,” she made clear. “I love him, but I still care for you,” she admitted. “So please, just let him go, and walk away,” she asked again.

“Walk away?” He looked at her like she was out of mind. “After he stole you from underneath me?”

“No, one stole me, Hoagie, I just realized what I wanted and that's not you, not anymore,” she told him.

“Then shot me,” he tempted her, staring into her eyes. “But only after I have fulfilled my promise and avenged my brother.”

Abby looked at him curiously with his words, she then gasped in surprise as Hoagie made a dive for the gun. It was already in his hand as Abby cried out, “No!” She then squeezed the trigger of Wally's custom made gun, taking the shot, that would end the life of her first love. “Hoagie!” She dropped the gun to the ground as he laid still on the ground.

She then ran over to him and dropped to the forest floor before taking him in her arms and turning him towards her, tears in her eyes. To her surprise he was breathing, but the shot she had taken as puncture his lung and so she knew it wouldn't be for long. His eyes seemed as he looked upon her. His hand slowly came up and stroked her face, a soft smile on his lips before his hand landed on his chest and eyes closed forever.

Abby's bottom lip quivered violently as he died in her arms. She then whispered his name as she held held his limp body tighter. The clouds moved slowly in the night wind until it covered the moon, leaving Abby left in the darkness.

Transmission Interrupted. . .
