Chapter 9: The Veteran
Justice Hunt stood in the security office watching the commotion around him. It was 2 a.m. but nobody could sleep. This wasn't something worth sleeping through. He had fought in World War II and came out with a Medal of Honor. He knew this was a war between the living and the dead. He knew this was a war that his side needed to win and he would help the SPA as much as he could to ensure that happened. As he returned to reality after deep thought, he stood with Rosalyn and Walker behind Jenny listening to a transmition from the SPA.

"We have investigated the case and we do believe we know the source," Natalia spoke through the video.

"Do fill us in," Rosalyn responded.

"You see, have any of you heard of the Nightmare Crown? It was a device built long ago by a scientist by the name of Michael Gray. It is considered myth to many but that is because we have kept it under wraps."

"What does it have to do with it?" Walker asked.

"The crown is not actually a crown. It is a device capable of using the planet's energy to harness and revive... well... revive the dead."

"You're sure this is it?"

"I was skeptical at first, however we searched for Michael and his daughter. It appears they both seem to have vanished, or more likely, have been kidnapped."

"Why don't you just send a team for them?" Justice questioned.

"It's not that simple. We are a quiet agency. However, if it actually is the power of the Nightmare Crown then that makes the source easier to track."

"In what way?" Rosalyn spoke.

"It means that the source is somewhere in the town."

Justice was taken back by this. This was his hometown. This was where he wanted to live a quaint and peaceful life after the war and some jack had to go and ruin it. He was furious on the inside.

"What did the superior say?" Walker asked.

"You are to find and destroy the source. If you can preserve it, do so, but we'd much rather not risk it coming back in enemy hands. We have our full faith and you. In regards to the survivors... save who you can but remember your priorities. You have one week before pick up is arranged. We will send Martin and a mass transit heli to extract you. We have the perimeter of the town contained. Save as many lives as you can because we will clean house in a week. One more thing. Our information shows that Dr. F is somewhere in the mall. Something about a vacation. If he has, well, survived, he and his team may be a very valuable asset to you. Be careful and good luck." And with that she vanished.

"Who's Dr. F?" Justice asked Rosalyn.

"A famous scientist. From what his file said, he is rather mad. However he is a genius. He created F-Energy."

"Never heard of him, never heard of it, I just want the peace back."

"Privates? Are you prepared?"

"Yes ma'am," Finn responded. Derek and Selena loaded their guns.

"Guys!" Jenny called from the computer.

"What is it, Chang?" Walker asked.

"I found them," Jenny leaned back. The monitor showed Dr. F and his assistant, and two others sitting in one of the theaters.

"Great job," Walker congratulated Jenny. "Troops, roll out."

"On it," Derek spoke.

As he watched the young troops leave through the vents, Justice flashed back to his glory days. He wanted to go on those missions again to help save well... his home, but he knew he couldn't. It wasn't in him anymore. He would do all he could but he knew he couldn't be on the front lines anymore. He reminisced until his comm beeped. Somebody was on the line. All the other guards were dead... hm.

"Hello? Is anybody there?" the voice called out, female. He recognized it instantly. Elmira Cull. Barney's wife. She was alive. Barney was going to flip.

"Elmira?!"

"Justice?! Thank heavens you're alright! Is Barney okay?!"

"Yes, he's fine. And so is Mira. They thought you were gone!"

"We're still in the the library. I remembered the extra comm Barney made me keep for security. Can you please take it to my family?"

"Yes, one second," Justice said with a smile as he walked to Barney and Mira's room. When he saw Barney and Mira's tears, he knew he was doing what he could to help.
