Bab 143: Summary
"Don't think that I do not realize that, but finding the right anomaly is already hard enough, not to mention that I don't know if I can use it at all."
"What do you mean with that?"
"Well, as far as I know some abilities have the negative side effect of distorting reality around me, bending it. This has a chance of killing me, that is why there is a limitation on the time of an ability."
Valentina sighed.
"Alright, continue."
Leo continued.
"After obtaining the SCP-966 form which granted me temporary invisibility, I made my way to the nuclear warhead room and I armed it before using the invisibility to escape."
Valentina shot Leo a cautious look.
"I feel like you are forgetting to mention something to me."
Leo thought for a while before responding.
"Oh, right. I stole SCP-170 as well which is practically a substance that binds two objects at an atomical level, I used that on the door to the warhead room so they could not re-enter."
"And after that you escaped from the site and the warhead detonated, right?", said Valentina.
"Yep, that is about it."
Valentina took another puff from her cigarette before extinguishing it in the ashtray.
"Now Leo, I have a couple more questions, but first I want to confirm something for my sake."
"What is it?", asked Leo.
"You used to work for the MC&D, didn't you?"
Leo's heart skipped a beat.
He expected this topic to be brought up, but it was really important to him.
The insurgency had ties to the MC&D so there was a realistic chance that they would exchange him back to the MC&D.
If that happened separating again would be really hard.
However, lying wasn't an option because he was sitting in front of a delta command member, she could simply give a few orders and she would find out herself.
"Yes, I was. What about it?", asked Leo in a tense tone.
A smug smile appeared on Valentina's face as she took out another cigarette and lighted it.
"Say, do you know anyone that goes by the name Iris Dark, or Iris Darke?", asked Valentina.
"Yeah, she was my appointed manager at MC&D, first Percival dealt with me but he was too busy so he ordered Iris to do it, that way she could get experience."
The smile on Valentina's face kept growing wider before asking another question.
"Tell me, were you important?"
"I guess so, I was one of the special agents and the only one being taken care of by Iris, if you can even call it taken care of."
Suddenly Valentina started chuckling.
The chuckling quickly turned into laughing before switching to maniacal laughing.
Leo didn't want to admit it, but at this point he really did fear for his life.
Valentina continued to laugh for a while before stopping and speaking.
"Oh, I finally got that bitch good!"
Leo was surprised upon hearing this.
"What do you mean?", asked Leo.
Valentina relit her cigarette before speaking.
"Me and her go back a long, long time ago. Back when I was a new delta command member she came over to introduce herself as one of the representatives of MC&D, during her introduction I didn't like her tone and I let her know. She threw a temper tantrum here on how I wasn't fit for a leadership role and since then she has been trying to sabotage me in subtle ways, mostly just minor inconveniences like delayed weapon shipments and delayed anomaly shipments, I've never been able to get back at that snob since the insurgency is allied with them, but it looks like I hit the jackpot with you!"
Leo remained silent for a second before sighing.
"You seriously had me scared there, but I totally agree with you. Before I went on my final mission where I got captured I called her a bitch, I already had a feeling that something was wrong with the mission but I knew that protesting to her would be useless. The only thing on her mind is money, and that is about it."
"I totally agree with you Leo, but we have arrived at my last question.
"And that would be...?", asked Leo.
Valentina stood up and extended her hand to Leo.
"Would you like to be my right-hand man?"
