Chapter Five Departure
Early Monday Morning around 3, 00 AM. He found himself talking to his Wife about the Mission. He told her he would be back soon just as soon as he could. He started by saying things like I shouldn't tell you but I will. He started by saying something about souvenirs which kind did she want? Most Soldiers brought back gifts for their Families and Friends. How about a piñata a small one filled with all kinds of goodies. She sat down on top of her bed whispers goodies, piñatas sure okay bring us one of those. She began to cry for just a moment. She knew in his business they were lucky if they bring themselves home. She fell into his arms before the telephone rang 1 time. That is to be expected he thought one ring on the telephone and they're already here. It's time to go he whispered. She lied down on top of her bed half asleep, half dazed but she knew he was leaving tomorrow. He kissed her once on the forehead then once on the lips. I'll see you real soon he whispered with a sudden stare and a smile to go with then he's gone.
Something in the back of her mind told her that she would never see him ever. Then again, she had that same feeling and thoughts every time he left her alone. She counted the footsteps that left her bedside 1 after another. He finally reached the hallway door. He stepped inside he walked over to his bed and looked down. I will see you real soon he whispered. He gave him a gentle hug than a kiss. He whispered if there is a God in Heaven. I will keep an eye on you from there, Son. I will be waiting with in Heaven or hell. I will be back! I will see you even if I have to crawl up from my grave! He remembered something that he forgot so he rushed back inside into his bedroom. I left you something just in case you need it he said. It's in the basement on a shelf. He began to walk out and don't forget real soon she whispered hurry back. She continued to cry while she lied in bed and listened to every sound that came from the hall.
He walked down the hall he knew they were waiting for him just downstairs. He knew he had to hurry. He also knew he was a Captain nobody hurried a Captain. He stole another glance he looked into his Son's Bedroom. His entire outlook on life changed into the mind of a fully fledged Soldier. He walked downstairs he knew his duffel bag and several Weapons were waiting in a jeep for him. He left the front door unlocked from past missions because this is the way things got done. They were outside waiting in a jeep. He realizes it on his way to the front door. When, he reached the front of the House. A serenade of thoughts ran through his mind. Hesitantly, he took several steps forward only 5 more before reaching the front door and stops. Slowly, he turned around he faced the inside of his Home. He believed it might be the last time.
He noticed several pictures on a wall of his Wife and Son. It brought a smile to his face before he turned around to face the front door. I will see you again, he whispered his voice almost disappeared in the hall on his way to the door. He walked into the street where a jeep waited with 2 soldiers one behind the wheel the other sat behind him. He stopped one foot before he reached the passenger side seat. He turned his stare to a bush that remained alongside his Home. He sees noone inside or a sign of any of his Son's Toys. I will talk to you again Chris if l ever see you! Keep an eye on my son while you hang around here doing nothing. He climbed into t he front seat before he stared at the driver. What are we waiting for? He continues to look at him like he's waiting for him to answer. Just you Captain he answers one soldier sitting behind a wheel that took orders. The driver stepped down on the gas after he stared back at the Captain.
After a few minutes driving he whispers we heard about Krypts Kreepers, Captain. They say a lot of you died at a place that the military call. Hell of hells. They also say you couldn't see them because they had an upper hand on you. I don't like talking about what happened soldier. Why don't we just leave them in peace? They were soldiers like you and your friend behind me. IF you say so he said he stepped down on the pedal all the way to the floor. We're going to an airport named little planes that belongs to the military. I'm supposed to drop you off their Captain see yes, afterward. If you make it back will share another story like this he replied. They drove into an airfield where a dozen small planes, waited. He not iced 2 Chinooks 3 black hawks besides 3 regular small choppers that were used for transporting. Several jeeps appear another small aircraft followed them. He could hear his name, they were screaming down at him from a small bird just above. He noticed the jeep that he drove here in that disappeared after that. He sees his duffel bag on the ground. He sees a small Plane land seconds after. Three Krypts Kreepers appeared so he's not alone now his Men were here. They prepare for the journey 1 by 1 and climb into a Chinook already warmed up. Captain Longfellow followed them inside. He's the last of 11 Krypts Kreepers to enter in through the rear. He heard his Men speak. He knew they were glad to be together, again. Well Men he replied when we die, bury us deep, this way our enemies can't find us. There isn't a valley to low or mountain to steep that will keep us from talking crap like Krypts Kreepers Krew. It's to late they say it together, laughingly.
Within minutes there in the air talking, laughing, and re miniscing over a Mission that no one believed would ever come again. They fly forward then straight into the skies like they're headed for Heaven. The Communication Center needed to release them. Captain Longfellow who everybody knew as Mike stood up to make his speech. He began with plans the one that a General had given them. They begin going over plans after finding out that they had no idea how many rebels they were going to fight against. One soldier found an old map that he's ordered to share with his Men especially Captain Longfellow that General Guajardo gave him. He ordered me to share it with you. This is where we're headed Men somewhere deep in the mountains to a place named Guillermo, Mexico.
Back at home his Wife found 2 cigar boxes which her Husband left on a wooden shelf in the basement. When she opened 1 box she discovered it is filled with $100 Dollar Bills. There had to be at least 100 thousand dollars in each box. Both boxes were 6 inches thick each one had 4 stacks of 100$ Dollar Bills. After one glance, she had good reason to believe that he isn't coming back not this time. Maybe God wants him in his Army. Or he'll die on a Battle on a Battlefield somewhere on God's Earth! She found herself down in the basement. She looked at things like monkey heads which were really too small to be real or shrunken she thought. She did find a few other things that she really had no interest in either, whatsoever.
She continued to look through the basement until she found a picture of who she isn't sure of or even remembered. Instead, she decided to take her Son to school. She left after buying him a quick breakfast at McDonald. She dropped him off at School early Monday Morning. The entire time she remained in her vehicle to watch. While he walked toward 2 doors before he finally entered School. But she had both cigar boxes with her. She doesn't know whether or not to deposit or leave them at home. So she remained seated in her Vehicle. Before, she finally decided to take the money home just in case he returned. Opened the top box one last time and looked back inside then again before she started to wonder should l or shouldn't l keep it. She didn't know if she should. She didn't like the idea of having money lying around the house either. Again, she decided she better not because if he does return home that he might be looking for it. Anyway, he told me if l needed to use it to use it. Still, she decided to take it home, she stepped back down on the pedal. She restarted her Vehicle still. She drove herself home wondered where it came from in the first place. It bothered her so much that the entire time, she drove straight Home, she wondered?
A massive Chinook continued to fly over the United States into another Country. Before reaching the border someone yells were flying over the Gulf. He sat up front with 1 Pilot to watch the water beneath them. He relayed everything that he seen from the front seat by using binoculars that he was given by a Commander at the time. He noticed the Ocean underneath Miles and Miles of blue water as far as his eyes could see. Tall massive Mountains draw another kilometer closer. He sees that place which is about 140 kilometers from where they were. We should be there in a matter of minutes he yelled. Where did the General say he wanted us Stationed? As close to the top as possible!<
