Totally Spies Porn Story: Shooting Star Chapter 10
Chapter Ten
Sam and Jacob waited outside of the apartment building for
their ride to the FBI headquarters. The
rain had completely stopped a few minutes ago, so everything was still dripping
from the shower. The sky was still
gray. Sam wore her jacket and pants with the cheap shirt Jacobs friend had
loaned them. All it took was one look at her blood-soaked blouse to make her
accept the offer. She took another swig from the water bottle.
Feeling anything? Jacob asked.
My side still hurts, but the nauseas gone.
Itll take a few weeks to completely recover from that
gunshot, so try to avoid irritating it until then.
Will there be a scar?
Jacob pursed his lips. Im not sure. He said it was a clean
wound, and he patched it up good, so it should be minimal. Then again, Ive had
worse wounds leave no scars, and lesser ones leave some.
Great. Sam didnt like the idea of having a permanent
reminder on her body of this incident, and she sure as heck didnt like the
idea of explaining it to her parents. Or anyone at school for that matter.
She looked down the road and saw a sedan slowing down as it
approached the apartments. Is that our ride?
Jacob looked at it closely. Yeah, I think so. Sam took
another swig from her bottle.
The car slowed to a halt in front of them. A man in his mid-thirties stepped out of the
drivers seat and walked around to them.
Mr. Ravask, Miss Simpson?
Thats us.
Agent Elsing. Ive been sent to drive you to the FBI
headquarters, sir.
Lets go, then.
Sam and Jacob got into the back seat and they started down
the rain-soaked street. The car went
down the road a few blocks before merging onto the highway and they headed back
downtown. The roads were still wet,
causing the cars to kick up a trail of mist behind them as they all went on
their busy ways. Sam found it curious that all these people were totally
oblivious of the danger they were in.
Hey Elsing, said Jacob. Any idea why they want me at the
FBI?
No idea, sir. All I know is that I was taking a coffee break
when my boss told me to go get you.
Thank you, agent.
Sir, if I may ask, why is she coming with us?
Shes been injured. I thought it best she come with me
before returning to WOOHP.
Oh, I see.
They drove in silence for several minutes. Sam stared out the window at the approaching
skyscrapers. One of those buildings is
hiding the bomb, but which one? She looked across at Jacob as she tried to
think. Jacob was also staring out his window, but she couldnt see his face. He
looked like he was thinking about something.
What are you thinking about? she asked.
Nothing in particular.
At a time like this?
He stretched his arms. Ive been going like a machine for
the past week. Im going to take any downtime I can get.
A thought crossed her mind. After you had me stabilized,
did you call Jerry or anyone?
Yeah, I did. He thought it best we lay low after a screw-up
like that. We were still in Ramirezs territory after all.
Sam recalled the pitiful conditions of the buildings in that
area. Hard to believe such nice people choose to keep living there.
Well, if they moved away, then there wont be any nice
people left, right?
Thats one way of putting it.
The highway snaked around the mass of buildings at the heart
of the city. Sam could see the WOOHP building, grayed by the mist still hanging
in the air. The car left the highway and descended into the maze of monolithic
structures.
You know, youre a pretty nice guy under all that military
toughness.
Jacob looked at her quizzically. You think so?
Of course. We just dont get much of a chance to see it
because weve been so occupied with the mission.
Jacob snorted. Well, that description certainly goes
against my name.
What?
You know how names have meanings?
Yeah.
In Hebrew, Jacob means He grasps by the heel. Its the
name for a sneak and a cheater.
Oh, come on. Youre just trying to keep me at arms
length.
Im serious! The Hebrew patriarch Jacob was born grasping
his twin brother Esaus ankle. Jacob would go on to trick Esau into selling his
birthright for a bowl of stew and tricking their father into giving him the
blessing.
Really? Thats pretty wild. What did Esau do?
He threatened to kill Jacob, so Jacob ran for his life.
When he returned years later with a family in tow, he was terrified of what
Esau might do.
What did he do?
He ran out of the camp with tears in his eyes and gave his
brother a big hug.
Crazy family.
Almost as bad as mine.
They laughed a little. Now that I think of it, the name
does suit you. You act like a tough guy, but youre just a big softie on the
inside!
Har har, very funny.
The car stopped in front of a building. Here we are, sir,
said Elsing.
They both said, thanks, and stepped out. The car drove
away to the garage and Sam took another swig.
Shall we go in? asked Jacob.
Not like I have anything better to do, besides finding
you-know-who.
They entered the building lobby. Jacob and Sam handed their
weapons over to the security guards and retrieved them after stepping through
the metal detector. The lobby consisted of a hallway lined with columns on
either side, and a cafeteria and waiting rooms were on either side of the
corridor. A pair of men in suits stood
at the end of the lobby in front of the elevators as though expecting them.
I think thats the director on the right, Jacob whispered
to Sam.
Whos the other guy?
No idea. Never seen him before.
They were halfway to the elevators when Sam spotted movement
off to her right. She was about to say something when eight SWAT members
stepped out of their hiding places on either side and aimed their submachine
guns at them, and the leader yelled Freeze! Sam and Jacob stopped. Place
your weapons slowly on the ground and put your hands in the air!
Whats going on? asked Sam.
Not sure, but do what they say!
They placed their guns on the floor and kicked them across
the marble floor before raising their hands up. The SWAT team stepped into the
corridor and formed a circle around them, their guns always pointed at the two
of them.
Jacob looked around and then at the director. Am I in
trouble again? Usually I only need three guards, so did I do something really
bad this time?
The director said nothing, but the man next to him spoke up.
By order of the Secretary of Defense, you are hereby placed under arrest until
Operation Shooting Star is resolved. He turned to Sam. As an accomplice, you
will be placed under arrest as well.
What the hell is going on!? said Jacob.
The man didnt smile, but the look on his face said that he
was enjoying this. You heard me. The Secretary of Defense has placed you both
under arrest.
What for? asked Sam.
He has decided that agent Jacob and the WOOHP operatives
have endangered this operation enough.
Your little SNAFU at the museum was the last straw.
But that wasnt our fault! The FBI-
Was conducting a simple sting operation to apprehend a
major criminal figure. The mans slick voice and calm demeanor were grinding
on Sams nerves. It was all she could do not to clobber him right there.
Jacob looked at him closely. Now I remember you. Youre the
one who tried to get rid of me after he remembered that Sam was standing
there along with eight unauthorized personnel The incident.
Yes, and now I work for the Secretary of Defense. Funny how
things work out.
Where is he?
Hes a very busy man, and couldnt be here personally. He
sends his apologies.
Sam looked around in confusion. The director looked
powerless against this man from the White House. She looked around at the guards. They were all focused and
trained their weapons on them. Then Sam noticed none of them were looking at
her. They were all focused on Jacob, and so were their guns.
Sam protested. Wait, I thought Jerry and MacDonald had
control of this operation!
Not anymore, they dont. MacDonald has been placed under
house arrest, and Jerry would be wise not to leave his building.
What? Youre lying! Jacob tried to motion her to be quiet.
I assure you, Im not lying. Why dont you call MacDonald
and see? I think his lines still open.
Sam opened her Compowder and called MacDonald. The screen
showed a stressed-out old man in a uniform.
MacDonald, whats going on?
As you can already guess, the Secretary of Defense has
assumed operational control of this mission. I am no longer in control of the
operation.
Jacob leaned close so he could see. MacDonald, since when?
Since about noon yesterday. After you two disappeared,
someone must have assumed the situation has been leaked somehow. The Secretary
decided to take a worst-case scenario approach and took control. When you contacted the FBI, he decided to
place you under arrest.
Well thats just great!
Sam looked up at the man from the White House. How could
you do this? The museum incident wasnt even our fault!
True, but the fact that there was a gunfight right in the
city over this matter is. If the police found you, you would have been captured
and questioned. You know we cant even let the police know!
And what about the FBI? asked Jacob.
You were not to contact anyone outside of WOOHP or the
Department of Defense. That little deal you and Jerry made is a blatant and
dangerous breach of protocol. He faced Sam. And you! You accepted an
invitation to meet the terrorist alone and unarmed? Youre worse than he is!
You had a chance to apprehend him and never took it! That alone is treasonous
behavior! Sam desperately fought the urge to strike him. She was a lot of
things, but a traitor definitely wasnt one of them. Ive said enough on this
matter. Take them away.
Jacob held out his hands for the SWAT team to cuff him, and
Sam did the same. She looked to him for some sort of encouragement, but he
avoided her eyes and stared straight at the White House man.
This is a big mistake, Carl. Were very close to
discovering the bombs location and finding the terrorist. Youre placing both
the operation and this city in jeopardy. And you know how far-reaching the
effects of a nuclear attack will be.
Carl turned around and looked at Jacob smugly. Im well
aware of the consequences. If youll excuse me, I have a job to do, and you
have a cell waiting for you on the fourteenth floor. With that, he boarded an
elevator and was gone.
As the guards escorted them to the elevator, they passed the
FBI director. He looked at them and said, Im sorry before walking away.
Two of the guards followed them into the elevator and stood
behind them. The one behind Jacob
pushed the muzzle of his gun into Jacobs back and said, You! Press the
button! Fourteenth floor!
Jacob complied and pressed the button. The guards relaxed their weapons and watched
the floor indicator. Sam knew this elevator would be fast, and she looked
around for an escape route. Her eyes
found Jacobs. His eyes said, wanna bust out? and hers replied, you bet.
Jacob took a deep breath, and with one fluid motion turned
around, snatched the gun out of the guards hands, and then did a second
revolution and smashed the butt into the guards head and slammed him against
the wall. The second guard started to move, but froze when he saw Jacob
pointing the gun right at him with his finger on the trigger. He still had the
unconscious guard pinned against the wall with his elbow and he was holding the
gun upside-down.
Alright, buddy. Lets not- Sam cut him off with a vicious
foot to the jaw. Jacob hit the emergency stop button and searched the guards
for the cuff keys.
Now what? she asked after unlocking his handcuffs.
Were on the thirteenth floor. Guards are waiting for us on
the fourteenth. He unlocked her handcuffs.
So we climb up?
At least to the fifteenth, and then hopefully take the
stairs down to the basement garage.
Sounds like our chances are slim as ever. She grinned.
Lets go!
Jacob removed the grating above them and opened the
emergency hatch. He cupped his hands to
give Sam a boost out of the elevator. As soon as she placed her hands on the
edge of the hatch, a pair of hands reached down and pulled her up.
Sam!
He heard her say, Jerry!
Jacob looked up and saw Jerry and another agent standing
over the hatch. Well, it seems Im right on time. I hope you two were
comfortable.
Jerry! What are you doing here?
I heard they were going to arrest you when you got here, so
I decided to pay a little unannounced visit. Are you coming along?
No, Id rather stay right here and let them arrest me. Of
course Im coming you old coot!
The other agent reached down and helped Jacob out of the
elevator. He, Jerry, and now Sam were attached to the elevator cables via
tethers and a device that clamped onto the cable. Jerry handed one to Jacob and
he attached it to a cable.
Shall we take our leave of this place? Jerry asked.
Lets get out of here. Said Sam.
Ladies first.
Sam pressed a button on the clamp and she began rising up
the shaft.
Up you go, Jacob.
Age before beauty, Jerry.
Righto! Jerry ascended the shaft.
Jacob nodded to the agent, and they both started up. As they ascended the shaft, Jacob heard the
elevator door open followed by a volley of angry curses.
Sam reached the top first.
A pair of WOOHP agents stood by the open door and helped her out of the
shaft. Another agent immediately took
her by the arm and told her to follow him.
They hurried down the hallway towards the stairs. Sam looked back to see Jerry climbing out of
the shaft, and also noticed the other elevators had been sealed shut.
The agent led her to the stairwell, and they started going
up. Sam could hear the sound of people running up the stairs from far below.
Please hurry Miss Sam, said the agent.
Sam picked up the pace and felt her side hurting again. She
ignored it and hurried up the stairs.
The stairs ended at a heavy steel door, which the agent opened and led
her onto the roof. A WOOHP helicopter
was waiting with the blades spinning and a couple of agents scattered around
the rooftop. He led her onto the
helicopter and then returned to the door.
Sam sat in one of the rigid seats and watched the door. Soon Jacob and Jerry emerged, followed by
other WOOHP agents. An agent sealed the door behind them and they all boarded
the helicopter. Jerry signaled the
pilot to take off, and the engines revved up and the blades sped up until the
helicopter gently lifted off the FBI roof and banked for the WOOHP
headquarters.
Sam jumped on Jerry and gave him a squeeze. You came! You
came! Youre the greatest, Jerr!
Jerry rolled his eyes and pried her off. He straightened his tie and said, Youre
both lucky the FBI director and I are on such good terms. Without him, youd be
sitting in a cell.
And without him, we would never have had that chance with
Ramirez, Jacob added.
Its unfortunate that things have gone this way, but thats
not stopping us from doing our jobs.
What are we going to do now? asked Sam.
Lets leave that for when we get back. You need medical
attention and Jacob needs to rest and all of us need to come up with a plan.
Sounds like a plan to me. Sam reclined as best she could
in the stiff seat, and decided to deal with their current problems later, when
she had time to think straight.
WOOHP Cafeteria 6:00 pm
Sam hobbled into the cafeteria to find Alex and Clover
sitting at a table. The doctor had given her wounds a more proper treatment,
but had irritated them as well, causing considerable discomfort. The girls saw
her at the doorway and leaped from their seats.
Sammie!
They raced over to her and crushed her in their embrace.
Sams wounds sent shockwaves through her, and she told them through her teeth
to let go.
Whats wrong, Sammie? asked Alex.
Im still hurt. Ow, that was unpleasant.
Oops! Im so sorry!
Its okay. Its not serious. Not anymore.
Clover looked her over, noticing the bad shirt. What
happened?
Sam noticed a bandage wrapped around Clovers right arm. I
got shot, she said plainly.
Yeah, we heard. Was it serious?
Jacob said I almost bled to death, but Im a lot better
now.
Alex took her by the arm. Come on and sit down, we just
finished dinner, Im afraid.
Thats okay, Im not hungry.
They sat down at the table and Alex went to get some drinks.
Sam looked at Clovers bandage. What happened there?
Stray bullet grazed my arm. Its not bad. I hope it doesnt
scar.
Me either.
So tell me, why on earth is the government against us all
of a sudden? Werent we just working for them?
Apparently, they think weve screwed the whole thing up and
decided to take over.
Alex returned with some lemonade for Sam. Those idiots up
there are going to get us all killed! We were doing just fine until we got the
government involved!
That was our mistake. The girls turned around to see Jacob
walking towards them. Carl was right about one thing, we did go out of line by
involving the Department of Justice.
Clover leaned across the table. But that doesnt mean he
can just shut us down when were so close!
Thats his problem now. We, on the other hand, are going to
keep going.
But Jerry said they dont want WOOHP involved anymore.
Said Alex. What does that mean?
I guess it makes us vigilantes!
Alex sat back in her chair. Wait, dont the cops usually
like, hate vigilantes?
Always, Clover. Always.
Sam took a big gulp from her lemonade. So this means were
now a bunch of renegades?
Exactly.
Which means wed better hurry before the Secretary of
Defense figures out whats going on.
They turned and saw Jerry walking over. Everythings still
in chaos over there, and Ive implemented measures to make sure it stays that
way for some time.
Jerry! the girls chimed in unison.
So youve bought us some time? asked Sam.
Yes. I dont know how much, but if its only enough to let
you get some beauty rest, then itll just have to do.
What if they try to come here and arrest us? asked Alex.
Jerry smirked Ill turn myself in if they manage to get
past the first floor.
Is that a bet? asked Jacob.
Never underestimate the power of red tape.
They all laughed, except for Clover, who didnt quite get
it.
Sam finished her lemonade. So whats the plan now, Jerr?
Now, were all going to get some rest. Even you look like
fifty kilometers of bad road, Jacob.
Im just fatigued. Ill sleep it off.
Well devise a strategy first thing tomorrow. I suggest you
all turn in early tonight. Good evening, ladies!
Bye! The waved as he left.
Clover turned to Jacob. So, whats gonna happen from here?
I cant say. Dont expect this to get any easier. We still
dont know Stephens whereabouts or that of the bomb, so thatll probably be
the first order of business.
You know its funny, said Alex, in the blink of an eye
weve gone from the free worlds best chance to a bunch of renegades.
Clover sighed. Man, why cant things stay simple? Im good
at being the heroine, but I cant be the villain as well!
Just think of yourself as an anti-hero, said Sam.
Clover pouted. But I dont wanna be anti-anything!
Alex patted her on the back. Dont worry, itll all turn
out for the better, right, Jacob?
Jacob hesitated. I cant say yes and I cant say no, Alex.
Theres just too many variables right now. He got up and stretched. Well, Im
going to turn in.
Already? They asked.
Ive been awake for over forty-eight hours taking care of
your friend, here. Im going to bed. With that he left the cafeteria.
After he left, Clover leaned across the table towards Sam.
So, did you get his number?
Clover!
