"Mr. Clayton Abernathy, you have been found guilty of 285 counts of murder, as well as 7 counts of conspiracy to commit acts of terrorism. You have been sentenced to death. You chose to be put to death by electric chair. When this switch is flipped, 100,000 volts will be passed through your body until you are dead. Do you have anything to say before the sentence in carried out?"
Everyone is staring at former G.I. Joe Commander General Hawk. He has his head down in shame. He looks up as if he is going to speak but nothing comes out. A few tears trickle down his cheeks. A dark haired man wearing a prison guard outfit walks towards Hawk and puts a mask over his head. The phone never rings. No presidential pardon this time. The clock strikes midnight. The switch is flipped. The next morning a man kisses his daughter goodbye. "Ok. honey I will see you tonight. I might be working late so if I don't see you before you go to bed, sweet dreams." "Thank you Daddy. I love you so much!" "I love you, too. When Mommy wakes up, tell her I love her too." He gets inside of his Olds Cutlass 442 and cranks it. It doesn't start. It's an old car, it never starts on the first try. He tries it again and it fires right up. The exhaust roars through the early morning silence. After a ten minute drive he arrives at work, right before the sun cracks the horizon. He unlocks the doors to his shop, flips the lights on and walks back to turn the air compressor on. It's going to be another busy day at the shop. He walks over to an old 1950 Mercury. It's rough now but he has huge plans for it. He cranks it up and drives it out of the shop. Not enough room to keep the cars in the shop and work on one at the same time. He parks it in the parking lot and walks back into the shop. It's time to start welding on his latest restoration, a 1970 Chevelle. He pulls the welder out from the corner and grabs his welding helmet. He puts it on, then takes it off and looks at it. The name "Clutch" is written across the front. He stares at it for a second, then puts it back on. No time to think about the past.

A man sits down in a bar. It's only noon but he's already had a couple this morning. It's pretty dark inside yet he doesn't remove his sun glasses.
” You want your usual, man?” the bartender asks. The man says nothing, just nods his head. The bartender slides two drinks across the table. The man slams both of them without even a flinch. ” You've been in here a lot lately. Everything ok?” the bartender knows he isn't going to get an answer but he is trying to spark up small talk because the blonde in the glasses is his only customer at this time of day. ” Interesting day today” the bartender says while cleaning some glasses ” I really think we will have a new president elected tonight. The experts are predicting a landslide for Adam DeCobray. I know he doesn't have a ton of political experience but he is a financial genius. Look what he has built Cobra Industries into. Hell the man cured cancer. That in itself gets my vote. Not to mention he got those GI Joes shut down. Bunch of fuckin terrorists”. The man at the bar puts 20 bucks on the table and walks to the door. He pulls his hat down and walks outside, never saying a word.

Later that evening in a local restaurant-
” I still can't believe they executed him, man. I know Hawk had nothing to do with it. We would've known about it!” ” Really, Roadblock? You think he told us everything?” ” I understand that, Stalker but why did he do it?” ” I don't know for a fact but I have my theory. Hawk was told that GI Joe would be dissolved. I mean, why not? Cobra had been dormant for years. Why dump money into it if they didn't need us? So out of desperation Hawk had an entire apartment complex blown of the face of the Earth. He tried to make it look like Cobra did it. Unfortunately, the planted evidence led the Feds right to G.I. Joe. The way I see it, that son of a bitch Hawk deserved to die. He put his own interests over the lives of innocent people.” ” Come on Stalker, you can't believe that shit man.” ” Trust me, I've seen the evidence. I don't blame the government for shutting us down. I'm embarrassed to tell anyone I worked for GI Joe. Hell right now, if people knew we were associated with them, they would probably kill us too. And nobody would give a shit.” ” how are you guys doing?” A young blonde waitress asks. ” We're fine, honey. Can we pay our bill?” Stalker asks. ” Sure honey, no problem” she replies with a smile. Stalker hands her a credit card and she walks behind the counter to cash them out. ” Can she see us from there Roadblock?” ” Nah man.” ” ok, lets get the fuck out of here before she finds out it's stolen”.

Lol. If you.re referring to ” I was there”, it's not over yet, just on hiatus ;) seriously though, it will be finished soon. Just had to start this while the idea was fresh in my head.

” I'm closing down the shop now, baby. I'll be home in just a few” Clutch told his wife as he locked the front door of his shop. It was another rough day of work but money was hard to come by these days. Ever since GI Joe got dissolved, the entire team had to start life in the real world. Clutch double checks the lock on the shop before he jumps in his Cutlass. The starter spins but she won't start. She never starts on the first try. The second try is the charm. The Cutlass roars to life and struggles to stay running in the cold night air. Clutch revs the motor for a few minutes to keep it running. She's ready to roll now. He slams the lightning rod shifter into gear and speeds into the night.
The drive home is a lonely ride. The radio and A/C went out a long time ago. The way Clutch looked at it, if it didn't make the car faster, it didn't need to be in the car. It was just the sound of the exhaust roar and ther wind coming in through the windows. It was a beautiful fall night. The roads home were barely lit but it was fine, nobody walks those roads at this time of night. Clutch couldn't wait to get home and see his wife. He barely got to see her at all, his schedule was just too hectic. But he knew in just a few minutes he would be home with her, exactly where he wanted to be. His mind drifts for just a second, long enough that he didn't see the drunk man stumble into the road in front of him. He sees him at the last second. He swerves to miss him but it's too late. He hits the man with the right fender, launching him into the air and onto the windshield. Clutch mashes the brakes and brings the car to a sliding stop. ” Shit man are you ok? I didn't even see you! Are you drunk or something?” The man never respond, blood pouring from his head. His sun glasses shattered when he hit the windshield, cutting his face. The man is still alive but he's pretty beat up and unconscious. The man's jacket is shredded and his arms are cut to pieces. Clutch grabs the man's wrist to check for a pulse. That's when he sees it. He immediately grabs the man and lays him across the backseat. Clutch takes off from the scene with the man clinging to life in the back. He gets to his house and takes the man out, throwing him over his shoulder. He runs into the house and lays the man on the couch. ” What the hell is this? Who is this and what the hell happened to him?” his wife screams as she sees the bloody mess. ” I hit him with my car. Don't worry about it, I'm taking care of it.” ” Call the damn paramedics! Don't let him bleed to death on or couch!” ” I can't do that honey. This is the most wanted man in America right now. If I call the paramedics he'll be arrested at the hospital. I'm not letting that happen!” ” Then what's your plan? What if he dies? You're gonna go to jail.” ” Honey, I've got it under control” Clutch never panics. Especially when it comes to helping one of his best friends. He grabs his phone and makes a call. ” Hey I need a huge favor. I hit a guy with my car and need you to help me out. No, I wasn't drunk, actually he was. But that's not the point. It's Snake Eyes, man.” Clutch hangs up the phone and hugs his wife. ” it's ok baby, Lifeline is on his way. He will make sure Snake Eyes makes it.”
