Learning to Love Chapter 124 Vigal
The wife's all end up at Grace’s house. They know Amy will be there and that the two newest wives would nees their support. They include Mary Carlisle, Michael's wife, who is very pregnant. Mary introduces herself to Grace and Amy.
“So, what does Michael do in the team?” Amy asks. She is desperate to distract herself.
“Works with your husband. He is the spotter. He will help Willy find and line up the shots. He also guards his six.”
“That is good.” Amy starts to pace again. The TV is on, showing coverage of the Crisis in Ottawa. “Will we be able to see them?”
“Maybe. But, I doubt they are going to be dressed as SEAL's. More likely as Canadian Monties or as Candian Special Forces. But Amy, all the Teams will be there. It will be harder to spot them. As well as Canada's own Special Forces.”
“We can try to find them.”
“Yes we can.” Grace knows the act of looking for them will help keep her friend's mind off all that is happening, all that they can't control.
“So sorry Tex, we sure didn’t mean to interrupt your wedding night.” Marcus says as he joins the others at the SEAL house.
“Couldn’t be helped. What is the plan?” It is very hard but he forced himself to go from brand new husband to the deadly sniper he needs to be right now.
“We are joining the other Teams and Canadian’s Joint Task Team 2. What we know right now is that there are at least 75 terrorists. That they have taken over with semi- automatic weapons the Ottawa Nuclear Power Plant. We are going in as ourselves..” They nod and start to gear up.
“Okay, what will they be doing” Amy is still anxiously scanning the screen. The news shows tons of flashing lights outside the power plant. Men and women run around, all dressed in black gear. Picking out their husbands seem impossible.
“They will be following the lead of the Canadian special forces. They will put their skills to work. Marcus coordinating. Liam treating any injured. Jose” keeping everyone in communication. Daniel setting up spy equipment and, Willy and my Michael taking out the bad guys and watching the others six.” Mary answers while readjusting her position on the couch. She is a week away from her due date and very uncomfortable.
“Si', Mary is probably right. But, with all the teams being there, and not just American- they will bring in British and French teams too- our husbands will be put to work in whatever way is helpful.” Carla adds. She is a week late and Grace is keeping a close eye on her and Mary.
“All we need is for one or both to go into labor, she thinks.
“Where are y'alls kids?” Amy belatedly wonders. Her mind had been so focused on Willy she hadn't thought to even wonder about them until now.
“With parents and in-laws. We try to keep them away from this.” Carla explains. Amy nods, her attention already returning to the screen searching for a glimpse of her husband.
“Okay Team, we will be assisting Joint Task Force 2 and the Mounties. I don’t know where we will be assigned yet. We will do whatever is needed. I don’t know how long this standoff is going to last. Sorry Willy.” Marcus announces as they head towards Ottawa.
“It is okay Boss. She knew what to expect.”
“That may be true but we hated dragging you away from your wedding night.” Willy shrugs, not wanting to think about that as he mentally prepared for the mission.
“Did you at least have time to, yah know.” Liam asks with a grin
“Yes.” He tensely replies. No one asks him any more questions.
“Let's focus on getting mission ready.” Marcus instructs.
