Epilogue Armed and Dangerous

Epilogue

          The Cobra ground-borer had easily made its way to an underground series of tunnels.  Even if the G.I.Joe team followed them, they would have been hard-pressed to track them down.  The underground network of tunnels was extensive, to say the least.  The group would lay low for a day or two, and then make contact with Cobra Commander and await further orders.  Crystal Ball stared at the computer screen to monitor the brainwave activity of the departed Joe infiltrator.  He smiled knowing that his suggestive message still lingered in the back of this Joe’s mind. 

I shall call upon you again Pathfinder. This I can promise. Indeed.

          Lieutenant Alkeenen was quick to offer his services at rebuilding the Marine outpost, but instead, his dossier caught the eye of the G.I.Joe team before he could be assigned to that mission.  In fact, several days later Stalker approached him to discuss his future plans in the military:  Even inviting him to take part in a special mission on the other side of the globe.  The master of disguise could not believe his luck, well no, he knew the caliber of the man he was impersonating, but he didn’t expect to be pulled into the fold so quickly.  The undercover Zartan gave all the correct answers and was quick to accept the Joe team’s offer of employment.  He would join the mission, gain their trust, and later sell his information to the highest bidder.

          Gnawgahyde upon noticing the return of the Joe team decided it was high time to abort his mission.  The next vehicle to exit the Pit would be his ticket out. He had had quite enough of the G.I.Joe ventilation system, and knew when to make his escape before being detected.  He had studied quite a bit of the underground Joe headquarters and knew that the intelligence he could provide others would far outweigh the money he would have received for the two cheetah cubs.  There would be other customers and other opportunities and as much as he hated to admit it. He missed Bacon.

Follow the future adventures of Armed and Dangerous and the Joe and Cobra teams in Armed and Dangerous Book II "Enter the Headhunters."
I would love to continue sharing book 2 chapters with you on my blog, but it would be nice if I could get just a little feedback to know what you liked, disliked, would have liked to have seen etc.  I know shameless request, but even a note that you red it would let me know that my story is out there and gave you some modicum of enjoyment.  Book II is a little darker and will touch upon the ipioid epidemic, the Headhunters, Dreadnoks, and DEF team formation.  I greatly enjoyed writing it and am currently fleshing out Book III. 

Cheers!
