Chapter 15

Charles awoke to Angela snuggled next to him. Her arms wrapped around his chest as she dug her face into his back. He heard the soft snores, telling him she was still asleep. He sighed before closing his eyes again.

Angela cracked an eye open to see Charles still asleep. "He looks so peaceful." She thought stifling a yawn. She felt movement come from the man as he shifted in his spot. Angela giggled lightly until Charles moved to face her.

"Good morning beautiful." He said kissing her forehead. "Good morning liebling." She said with a grin. The two sat up and stretched as they got ready for the day. Charles and Angela walked out to the mess hall, fingers intertwining with each other. Angela leaned her head on his shoulder as the two entered the mess. Agents buzzed back and forth about missions, the latest gossip from Hana, and the all around buzz of family.

Angela and Charles got their food and sat next to David, Jack, and Ana. "Good morning Charlie, hope you're ready for the day." David said patting him on the back.

"Actually, I want to ask you guys something." Charles said placing his fork down. "What is it about?" Jack asked.

"I wanted to start an investigation, from that night." Charles replied. Angela stopped mid chew and looked at Charles. She gulped down her food before clearing her throat.

"You mean, when the ambush happened?" Angela asked. Charles nodded as he began to eat. Angela looked at Ana with a worried look.

"Are you sure? It's been a long time Charlie, I'm sure the area has changed recently." Angela said. Charles placed his fork on the tray and nodded.

"But with the Rider's powers, I could finally find out who knew about it. And get information." Charles growled as his eyes turned a Hellfire shade. Angela sighed before getting up and taking her food to the sink. Charles followed along suite and looked into her eyes.

"Please Angi, this could also help with who took my parents." He pleaded with the Angel. She placed her hand on her forehead as if she had a migraine.

"Fine, I'll go with you." She said crossing her arms. Charles smiled at her before giving her a soft kiss. "Thank you! You have no idea how much this means to me!" Charles giggled with glee. Angela looked into his eyes before cracking a smile. As the two left, David and Jack looked at each other.

"Y'know, I never figured Charles to fall for Angela. I thought he would be with Hana, or Lena." Jack said. Ana smacked Jack's head before continuing with her meal.

"Ow! What was that for?" Jack complained as he rubbed his head. David laughed lightly as the Egyptian woman acted as if she didn't do anything.

"You shouldn't judge someone based on who they love." David quipped. "Shut it Williams." Jack retorted. David and Ana chuckled lightly as the two exchanged fist bumps.

~Charlie and Angela~

"Are you sure about this Charlie? It's been quite a long time. 16 years to be precise." Angela said as the two departed for a dropship.

"I'm sure about this Ange. It'll give me closure on who attacked us, and took my father and mother." Charles replied. The two entered the ship as Charles inputted coordinates for the one place he thought he wouldn't return to. The place he made the deal. Charles jogged down and rolled his motorcycle as he rested it next to the table.

"You think we're going to need that?" Angela asked pointing to the cycle as it leaned lazily on the table.

"Considering the fact it was on an highway, yeah." He pointed out. Angela sighed before sitting on a couch. She looked throughout the bookshelves until a book caught her eye. With a huff, she snatched the book and opened it as she begun to read. Charles closed his eyes to get some rest before they began snooping around for answers.

~Dreamstate~

"Charles, why'd you do it?" A 13 year old Jennie asked as she bled from her side. A grown Charles raised an eyebrow at the question.

"Did what?" He asked. He noticed the young girl start to back off in fear as her eyes widened. "What is it?" Charles asked as he raised a bone hand.

"What the?" He exclaimed in fear as the scent of burning flesh filled his nostrils. He turned to see a mirror showing him transforming into the Rider.

"What is this?!" He yelped as he placed his bone hands on his head. He felt the same bone structure until the area he stood in erupted into flames.

"What is happening to me?!" Charles yelled in fear. "You are the Ghost Rider, Charles Williams, for now and all eternity. Embrace, your destiny." A voice said before Charles woke in a start.

~End Dream~

"Hmm, you okay Charlie?" Angela asked as she saw him woke in fright. "Just a bad dream, I'm fine." He replied as Athena informed them as they arrived at the destination.

"Are you sure liebes?" Angela asked again, with concern in her voice. "Yes Angi, I'm fine, just a bad dream. That's all." He replied, trying his best to dodge the question. What was that dream?

As the ship landed, the door opened for the two agents. Charles looked about and noticed some differences here. One in particular, was a pile of dirt, rocks, and minerals appeared next to the highway from a cliff.

"Since me and Jennie were hiding in the bushes, what happened there?" Charles asked pointing to the rubble. Angela recounted the events of that day. The agents fighting from operatives that appeared out of no where.

"We were lucky to not have perished, if it weren't for the Unit as backup." She said. The memories returned as she remembered pulling one Unit from the pile of earth. 

Charles knelt to the ground and sent a pulse through the ground. As him and the Rider trained to harness any powers, they discovered the ability to send a pulse in an area to discover anything out of the cosmic balance.

"Down the road a bit, there is something there that shouldn't be here." Charles said. He walked back into the dropship and pulled out his cycle. Activating the cycle, Charles handed Angela a helmet. She placed it on as she climbed in back and held his chest tightly as to not fall.

"Won't you need a helmet?" She asked as the motorcycle lurched forward. "No." Was his response. The two drove down the deserted highway as memories returned to Charles. The wet, dripping, liquid of blood on his hand. Jennie's closed eyes. Her cold-like characteristics as she ebbed away from life. Angela's arms helped snap Charles from his train of thought as the came up to the object.

They pulled to the side as Charles placed the kickstand down and leaned the bike down. The two disembarked from the bike and walked to the source that kept pinging on Charles's Hellfire sonar.

Charles knelted and picked up a damaged, metal object that had red dots that glinted in the sunlight.

"Mein Gott, aren't those Widowmaker's?" Angela asked as Charles's hands trembled. "It was Amelie." He replied.

Angela looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "What do you mean it was Ame-" Angela stopped as it dawned on her. The Unit had rescued Mrs. LaCroix after she was kidnapped by Talon, but all that was left was the cold, dead, body of Gerard. After that, a new Talon operative appeared, codenamed Widowmaker. Charles turned the head gear over to get a look at it. He noticed a SD card sticking out. It seemed to be in good condition.

"This should help." Charles said taking out the card and placing it in his pocket. "Are you sure it was her?" Angela asked. Charles held his head down, not wanting to confirm her suspicions.

The two returned to the motorcycle and returned back to the waiting dropship that brought them here. Charles kicked up the bike on the table.

"Let's go home Athena." He said as the doors close and the ship became airbourne. Angela steered Charles to the couch and sat down.

"Lay down love." Angela ordered. Charles complied and laid on the couch as Angela propped his head on her lap. She began to massage his temples to alleviate any stress or troubles caused from this trip.

"I know you want to know badly. But you need rest, after your father came back, you haven't been getting enough sleep like a person should be." Angela said. "I need to do this, I have to know who did this." Charles retorted.

"And you will, but on time will tell. For now, you need your rest." Angela said. "Doctor's orders." She added with a smile. Charles looked up to she Angela giggling lightly. With a defeated sigh, he agreed. He couldn't argue with her, she was an angel.
