The Dust Settles
#21
Jared waited while Hollywood asked his question.

"Actually, sir, do you know...uhh. How is Miss Grey?"


Jared didn't know who Miss Grey was, but there was a sincerity and eagerness in the man's voice. Whoever she was, Hollywood cared for her, and wished to know that she was well. Jacques response would answer most of those questions though.

"She is well. I believe by now she's making use of one of the embassy computers. You were on the team that rescued her. Well, until such time as you are in fighting order, you shall be the Legion's liaison with the Red Cross in Sierra Leone. I somehow doubt that Mademoiselle Grey will be leaving the country any time soon."


It seemed like Miss Grey was a member of the Red Cross team in Sierra Leone. In fact, more than likely an upper member of the group that was at the least helping organize Red Cross activities in the ticking time-bomb that was Sierra Leone.

Jared was patient. He showed no irritation while Jacques answered Hollywood's question, but stood waiting for Jacques to begin moving so he could follow. Jacques gestured to a clerk to lead the way and left some distance so that the could have some privacy. Jared matched his stride, it being easy enough because the two men were about the same height.

"What is troubling you, Legionnaire?"


Given permission to talk, Jared was unsure of what to say. He hadn't told anyone of his abilities with the exception of Sergeant Castle. He had been resolved to tell Jacques that he could use magic, but now given the opportunity he had doubts. He allowed a few moments of silence to gather his thoughts before speaking; it was his duty to tell the CEO.

"I find the whole situation here troubling, sir, but my reason for speaking with you has to do with your briefing."


Jared sighed, once more trying to come up with the right words. Even knowing Jacques knew about magic didn't dismiss the fact that Jared thought that Jacques might think him crazy. He paused a few more moments and then continued.

"Sir, I believe you should know of everything at your disposal. You mentioned those that can use magic, and well...uhh...I can do that, sir."
Now that Jared had said it the words began to flow more easily. "I wasn't aware of if you would want everyone to know at this time, so I wanted to tell you privately. I have to admit, I'm not very good at it. I prefer to use my own hands to magic, but if you wish it, I will practice more."


Jared sighed again. It was good to release the secret which he had held for so long. "And thank you, sir, for listening. It isn't easy to tell people this."
