The Traitor
“Soldier, I order you to hunt down the traitor and bring them back to me alive.”
“sir, how did you know that we have a mole?”
“I received word that the enemy, has our plans. our formations, our names, information about each one of our strengths.”
“Why would you select me for the Job?.”
“Because I know I can only trust you Elric , do you remember what you said to me when I first met you?”
“no, sorry commander Tim.”
“That’s okay. This is what you said : “Sir, thank you for allowing me to follow in my father’s footsteps and serve my nation.”
I was sure that I could trust you because your father died to protect me. I put my life on the line, to even get you into the army. You’re weak, pathetic, but you have a strong heart, a strong will. You’re like your father but weaker. A lot. Despite that, you have proved your worth in our last battle when you followed my commands to retrieve my second unit’s leader from the battlefield and bring him home safely. At that time, I chose you because no one has your build. Weak but you have used this to perfect your stealth. I knew you’d sneak there somehow unnoticed and retrieve him safely. Thank you soldier Elric Gung. “
“How did you meet my father?”
“It’s a long story, currently our top priority is to find the mole. The stake of our nation is at risk.”
“sorry, my curiosity got the better of me.”
“That’s okay. I’ll tell you another time. Follow me into this elevator to my room. We need to discuss this privately.
So Elric , any idea who this mole is?”
Elric pointed at the shadows and exclaimed, “I have him right here.”
Tim shone his flashlight at the shadows and there he was, dressed in black. It was so dark that you could only barely see the white in his pupils. Tim quickly withdrew his pistol and fired at his leg.”
The man screamed in pain.
Elric snook behind the mole and tied him up in handcuffs.
“Elric, how’d you know he was there?”
“He was on the elevator with us. Didn’t you notice the elevator text saying it had 3 people instead of 2?”
“I’m afraid I didn’t. I’m not use to such technology as much as you.”
“Anyways, Elric, take of his mask.”
“...Brother Barley?”
“You have a brother?”
“Yes, but I haven’t seen him in years.”
“Should we kill him now?”
“No he’s still my brother. Let me try to talk to him first, although I’ll need you to stand by and watch him for any suspicious activity. “
“okay. I’ll follow your orders this time, since you found the mole.”
