Rogue Ghostbird

Chapter 10 - Fathers

This hopefully is going to be a long ass chapter with all of the Blackbourne Team's POVs.

Shock.

That is the only thing to describe how I am feeling. Just a couple minutes ago, Dr. Roberts was briefing on our next mission, but was interrupted by a nurse reporting that some children were here to see him.

We had waited patiently for Dr. Roberts to return, but he didn't. Suspicious, we went out fully armed to see a bunch of children with guns. My team and I had focused only on the guns, not on the children.

Ever since Sang disappeared, the Team nearly broke apart. No one could find her and Dr. Roberts refused to talk to us. So, instead of leaving, there were some changes. I became less formal because I could hear Sang in my ear every time I called Luke Mr. Taylor. We drowned ourselves in our work or we took long breaks for non reason.

The shock really set it when we stormed the room and the Toma Team did too. It was only then did I see a mini version of Sang. It hurt much more than I thought it would. I thought after ten years, I had moved on. Most of us have been in relationships separately after Sang, but they never worked out. 

When Mini-Sang spoke up, it was like a bullet to the chest. She revealed everything that Sang had told her. The one thing that was stable throughout the years was my belief in the Academy. Apparently, I was wrong to believe in them.

They were the ones to take our Sang. They were the ones to deny us the right to raise our children. They were the ones who threatened to kill one of our family. They were the ones that broke my team.

Now, we are in the car heading over to our house to meet our children. I never thought the day would come.

"One . . . Two . . . Three . . . Four . . . Five . . . Six . . . Seven . . . Eight . . . Nine . . . Ten . . . One . . . Two . . ," I repeated.

I cannot believe this is happening. My Sang, my ten . . .

I have children. My Team has children. The Academy betrayed us the moment they threatened our center, our Sang.

Now, we have grown children. Ten of them, ten children whose innocence was ruined because of the need to survive. I would have spoiled them so much. The entire Team had piled into one van. It had been the easier option this morning when we came to the meeting. 

Since Sang left, everyone has been on edge. Sometimes even I am shocked that the Team hasn't split up. Anytime someone brought it up, I could hear Sang berating me for giving up. Hence the reason the Blackbourne Team was going strong.

The Academy was wrong Sang would never had torn us apart, she kept us together.

The car ride was silent with everyone lost in their own thoughts. When I first saw our sons and daughter, it was like seeing a reflection of myself. Each of the boys resembled one of us clearly with our daughter like Sang.

We quickly arrived at our shared home, the home we wanted to share with Sang. I was the first one out of the car. I wanted, no needed to see our children.

Their words have been us all on edge. We had searched for Sang for years. The only hint we had was a business card we found. Dr. Roberts refused to talk and everyone claimed to never have seen her. Even Raven lied straight to our faces.

It seems that the Toma team had been in contact with Sang and the children ever since she left. I mean according to the story, Sang even stayed at Raven's for a month.
