Chapter 10
A Todd and Althea moment
Disclaimer: I own nothing but crimson prophet, even though he most likely won't show up in this chapter. Props to Marvel, the GI Joe creators, Red Witch, and L170IE. Oh yeah big props to RogueFanKC for her reviews. Sorry about the delay folks, been a little bit distracted with a certain fanfic site.
Instead of arriving smack dab in the middle of everyone back at the Joe Base, Althea brought Todd and herself to their room as she knew he would not want to deal with them after what he had more then likely killed Vincent James: aka The Virus. Althea is a beautiful woman who led the lead first created Government team known as the Misfits who were watched over by the anti-terrorists group known as G.I. Joe. Her father was Hector X. Delgado, but to a lot of others was known as Shipwreck. Despite his quirks of bar fighting, beer drinking, and being a general nuisance for everyone she loved him with all her heart. Her mom on the other hand she loathed with a passion that had stayed with her since she was a child. Pushing those thoughts aside, she concentrated on her lover's conflicted face. The room they shared was rather unique, due to the interests they held. Blues and greens lined the walls as well as various photographs of them and their family and friends through out the years. Along with a various assortment of odd things that Todd had managed to get a hold of over the years. Their room really complimented their styles as even their computer and table was a mix of blues, greens, and even a few reds and browns.
Her heart was soaring with immense feelings of relief, gratitude, and sadness. Relief that her Toddles had come out alive, gratitude that Virus was no longer around, and sadness that Todd had been forced to end the Tech Mutant's life in order to stay alive. My Toddles wouldn't be going through this if Virus had just gotten the help he needed. Came a sullen thought as she held Todd in her arms as he cried out his grief.
She knew deep in her heart that no words would help him at the moment, and that soothing sounds and holding him close to her would help him with his ordeal. She also knew with out a doubt that he greatly appreciated what she was doing for him. I never want to go through something like that again.. Was a thought that had went through both of their heads unknowingly. Of course life wouldn't agree to that request as they knew something like that was liable to happen again.
Despite the physical pain he was, Todd's emotional pain was just as great and he would need all the support he could get to get through it. And Althea was already on that road to helping him. Hopefully Virus will finally find some peace at last in the afterlife. But with in his heart he knew the Tech mutant wouldn't as his soul had been stained with many acts that would greatly out balance any good he had done in his life time.
“Althea.. thank you..” And with that final sentiment he finally passed out. Althea looked down at him and kissed him softly on the lips and smiled at him, knowing that he would be alright soon enough with the help of his friends.
“No problem Toddles.” Came her own reply as she held his sleeping form in her arms.
Sweet, is it not? Hope ya liked it. I am aware that it is short, but I figure that it's better that way.
