Second Chance
Reeks: Brotherhood Holds The Line
C. L. Jones
- A
- contented
- Pops
- is
- enjoying
- retirement
- from
- the
- service
- and
- the
- organization,
- living
- comfortably
- on
- the
- money
- he
- and
- the
- Crew
- recovered
- while
- on
- their
- last
- mission.
- His
- personal
- life
- couldn’t
- be
- better
- but
- he
- knows
- he
- is
- overdue
- in
- proposing
- to
- Kelly
- who
- lives
- with
- him
- and
- is
- the
- only
- person
- he
- has
- allowed
- into
- his
- life
- since
- the
- death
- of
- his
- first
- wife.
- Then
- out
- of
- nowhere
- he
- receives
- a
- call
- from
- Cowboy,
- one
- of
- his
- closest
- Crewmates,
- who
- tells
- him
- the
- Crew
- is
- working
- a
- job
- that
- isn’t
- going
- well.
- They
- need
- his
- help.
Against
- Kelly’s
- wishes,
- he
- agrees
- to
- lend
- a
- hand
- and
- finds
- himself
- entangled
- in
- a
- kidnapping
- case
- on
- a
- jungle
- island
- off
- the
- coast
- of
- Central
- America.
- A
- sadistic
- and
- vicious
- rebel
- army
- on
- the
- island,
- led
- by
- a
- renegade
- general,
- is
- holding
- a
- rich
- American
- who
- they
- say
- will
- be
- released
- once
- they
- receive
- a
- ransom
- of
- several
- million
- dollars.
- The
- Crew
- has
- been
- hired
- by
- the
- man’s
- wife
- to
- find
- and
- return
- her
- kidnapped
- husband
- before
- he
- is
- murdered,
- and
- maybe
- dish
- out
- some
- of
- their
- own
- payback
- along
- the
- way.
Pops
- finds
- that
- things
- are
- never
- as
- simple
- as
- they
- initially
- appear
- when
- a
- seemingly
- straight
- forward
- kidnapping
- case
- takes
- some
- weird
- twists
- and
- turns.
- As
- fate
- would
- have
- it,
- he
- has
- some
- life
- changing
- events
- which
- Kelly
- had
- prophetically
- pronounced
- before
- he
- left,
- “Something
- will
- go
- wrong
- this
- time.
- I
- have
- a
- feeling
- about
- this
- one
- .
- .
- .”
Pops
- finds
- himself
- pitted
- against
- the
- rebel
- army,
- struggling
- to
- stay
- alive
- while
- still
- trying
- to
- free
- the
- kidnapped
- man.
- As
- he
- dances
- with
- the
- grim
- reaper
- he
- finds
- himself
- longing
- for
- a
- second
- chance
- at
- life
- to
- make
- up
- for
- his
- mistakes.
- A
- second
- chance
- to
- be
- a
- better
- friend
- to
- his
- Crewmates
- and
- foremost,
- a
- second
- chance
- with Kelly.
