Once Kris and Joesph retreated Phil and Marge headed to the switch hidden on the football field. The ground started to shake, and after a few seconds, the ground opened up showing a staircase and a steel door.
Oliver who was carrying the injured Specter was surprised to see something like this underneath the school's football field.
'When did they have time to build this thing!? They even did it without anyone noticing. I'm sure Emily told me that Alex had placed surveillance cameras all over the school ever since he came here. That would mean Dad and Mom did this before I attended this school, or they somehow changed the footage in Alex's surveillance cameras. Well either way, this is way too much.'
Oliver already knew that his parents could be considered something like mad scientists. Still this structure was a surprise to him.
...
Phil and Marge headed straight to the steel door, and were about to use their access cards that they created. Yet the moment they looked at the steel door, they noticed that someone had tampered with the system placed on the door.
This meant that someone was already inside waiting for them. Still they had no choice but to go in, there were too many important equipment in this secret base. The two headed inside, and Oliver who was carrying Specter followed.
...
Phil who was ahead of the group saw that the lights of the lab were turned on, and he could hear the sound of someone tapping on the table. Phil and the others looked at each other and took out their weapons. Even though both Phil and Marge were scientist, but their skill in battle was not something to brush off. Even if you were not part of the field agents in the Shadow Mercenaries, there was still a minimum strength requirement to join. The strength of a person that wants to join must be at least near the upper limits of an A rank merc.
So both Phil and Marge were at that level, even if skill wise they were the weakest in the organization, but in the outside they were part of the higher echelons. So with Oliver by their side they thought they could handle whoever it was that broke in. Yet the moment they saw the face of the man that was waiting for them, the perpetual smile Phil and Marge had disappeared for a second.
The man in front of them was the most dangerous person they could meet at this point. He was also the person they wanted to avoid at all cost, but as usual fate was really unpredictable.
There in front of them was a man of medium build, that look a bit similar to Oliver and was wearing a black suit with matching black gloves. This man was the uncle of James Bourne, Hektor.
Seeing the group of people he was waiting for, Hektor smiled at them. He then looked at Oliver and that smile of his got even wider.
"Oh, if it isn't the new leader of the Shadow Mercenaries, to what do we owe the pleasure?" Phil initiated a conversation with his usual smiling face.
"Do I really need a reason to come and see my one and only nephew?" Hektor looked at Oliver and spoke to him. "It's been a long time James. Look how much you've grown, as expected of my nephew."
Hektor was about to approach the utterly confused Oliver, but Phil and Marge blocked his path. Seeing this made Hektor frown.
"What do you two think you're doing? It would seem that you two think, I gone soft or something. Daring to block my path, even though I didn't kill you immediately since you took care of my nephew so well over the years. I'll give you a chance, apologize now, and move out of the way."
It was at that moment everyone present could feel a suffocating pressure envelope them. Even Specter who was unconscious was jolted awake by the pressure. Phil and Marge knew that they won't be able to stop one move from Hektor. This was the guy who was the top of the Shadow Mercenaries, a place where the strong gather to reach their ideals. The only one who was stronger than this guy in the organization would be the man behind the curtain.
Still even knowing this, Phil and Marge didn't back down. They knew that the moment Hektor reaches Oliver, would spell his death.
"He doesn't remember anything anymore. He no longer remembers who James Bourne is, and is now Oliver Minx."
Hearing what Phil said, made Hektor stood in place stunned by the sudden revelation. Using that brief moment of confusion, Marge was about to press a button, but before she could do so was suddenly stabbed by Hektor using his bare hands like a knife.
This move created a hole in Marge's stomach. Oliver who saw this wanted to move in rage, yet Phil signaled him to stop, while Specter tried to hold him down.
"Do you really think, I won't notice. I've known you fools for a long time, obviously I know the tricks you like to use. So Phil your wife is about to die, how about you say your final goodbye."
Hektor was about to pull out his hands from Marge's belly but was stopped as Marge held his hands as tightly as possible. Phil also dashed forward and restrained the surprised Hektor and injected something similar to a tranquilizer. This was something that could even stop a raging bull, but it was only able to restrain Hektor for a bit.
"No need to say a final goodbye since we'll all be together." Phil who was restraining Hektor looked at Oliver who was about ready to charge and help.
"STOP!" Hearing the serious look of his dad that usually had a smile on his face, Oliver stood in place.
"Oliver, I know I promise to tell you the truth, but it would seem that's not going to be possible now. Raphael over there would do that in my stead."
"What are you saying dad!? Sh*t, we got to help mom now, this is no time for your jokes!" Oliver was about to move forward again, but he felt something stab onto his neck. Specter had just used the same tranquilizer that was used on Hektor. He found it at a nearby table.
Oliver couldn't move his body as he fell down looking at Phil and Marge, who were smiling at him.
"Thanks Raphael," Specter simply nodded his head in response as he tried to pick up Oliver.
"Oliver thank you for being a spectacular son... I love you."
Marge who was bleeding badly, also said something as she kept that gentle smile on her face. "Oliver honey, remember that no matter what, you can only be you. I love you my wonderful son."
Oliver was trying his hardest to move, as he cried. He didn't like what his parents were telling him, since it felt like a goodbye. Oliver wanted to respond as well, he wanted to say I love you too, but his whole body was numb and even his mouth was unable to move, yet Phil and Marge understood even without him saying anything.
"It's alright son, we know... Raphael there is a switch on the right side of that wall, that will open up an escape route. Please bring Oliver with you, the drug we injected Hektor with, is losing its effect."
Hearing what Phil said, the weakened Specter knew what to do. Even in this situation where Hektor couldn't move an inch was extremely dangerous. Even if Specter and Oliver try to kill Hektor in this situation, they might not be able to do it, heck the adrenaline Hektor would get in a near death situation might make him overcome the drug instantly. There were too many unsure elements when facing someone like Hektor.
So Specter took Oliver and headed to the escape route Phil was talking about. He saw the switch, which opened up a hole on the floor, making Specter and Oliver fall in.
Phil seeing Oliver fall into the escape hatch, then took out a button. "Marge it has been a fun life hasn't it."
"Of course it has been fun, since I've been with you."
"Thank you for everything Marge."
'Gabriel, Patricia, I have a great story to tell you. Our son James has become a fine man.' With that last thought, Phil then pressed the button, and the secret base exploded.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
