“Perhaps you have a suitable place where you would work if peradventure you no longer worked here. Maybe that’s why you are not so concerned right?”A sudden defiance arose gradually within the female warehouse worker and an instinctive impulse was going to be activated but her male colleague held her hands back as a sign that she should be calm and not confront the men just yet. Her high spirits were tamped down by the warning touch of her colleague.“What many of you don't know is that some of you will also be brought in for questioning after we find out some anomalies in your methods of operation. Some of you will be brought to face a panel and it will be so funny how you won’t even have a single word to defend yourselves.”“You can go and do your research and find out for yourself if there are other organizations that are under panel because of the very same issues that we have found with you.”Dwight locked his gaze on the female warehouse worker before he left her.The moment Dw
***Inside the inventory, Uqaman and Zonam had finished blocking the glass door with the carton boxes and all of a sudden they brought out little boxes from the uniforms they wore. Little did they know that they were being watched.While the warehouse workers and forklift operators were leaving the inventory, two ladies - Tierra and Quora remained in the inventory for a while because they wanted to make sure that they sealed certain products before they left.They had been very insistent on finishing off with their work as soon as the hour was over but the distraction from the information that government inspectors had come made them a little frustrated.Tierra and Quora decided that they were not going to leave the inventory until they had finished sealing the boxes that they wanted to seal. After all it was going to take a little over 5 minutes for them to finish sealing the remaining cartons, they thought. That was about the same time that it would take everyone to exit the invent
Quorra was so terrified that tears were falling from her eyes as she lamented. She wished that the earth would just open up and swallow her up. That would be much better than getting burnt to death in the fire that the dark agents were about to light up.She didn't want to die - Not yet, she thought. Why didn't she just leave the inventory when the others were leaving? Why didn't she just leave those useless boxes that were left unsealed? Perhaps the agents only wanted to burn the inventory and not kill anyone. At least, even if they burnt the inventory and she was outside, she would be alive to see another day.Tierra was equally frozen, her body trembling uncontrollably and her face a mask of horror as she heard the chanting and hooting of the dark agents.But if their problem was with Alan, why didn't they go to him directly instead of having to destroy innocent people? If money was what they wanted, they could have negotiated with Alan and he would give them any amount they wishe
Quorra took a deep breath and she didn't even have to strain her ear at all when she heard what Tierra was talking about.“Death to Alan Greyson! Death to Dexter Greyson! Death to everyone who Alan loves!”“Death to Alan Greyson! Death to Dexter Greyson! Death to everyone who Alan loves!”The dark agents were chanting the same things again.“Tierra continued her speech in a hushed tone. “Did hear how they keep using the word ‘death’? They keep saying ‘death to everyone Alan loves’. Have you tried to interpret the statement? You don't have to care about Alan Greyson for them to see you as a target. “All that has to happen is for Alan Greyson to care about you either because you have met with him before or because you have some value to him. Doesn't that show you how terrible these men are that you think it's a good idea to show yourself to them and beg?”Quorra was pushed to the brink of desperation as she fell to the weight of the pressure. She couldn't but agree to Tierra’s statemen
Fear traveled through the hearts of every worker as the murmurs evaporated into complete silence. They weren’t completely sure what they were dealing with so they had to be cautious and not step on boundaries that they would eventually regret.“How foolish can you all be! You are on the verge of having your warehouse company closed and you are murmuring and doing chitty chatter. Is there anything remotely fun about all these?”The workers completely went silent, their breaths caught in their throats as the wave of fear washed over them.Dwight then mischievously folded his hands, scanning the faces of every one of the workers as if he were looking for someone in particular.Evanna who had been whispering to Gordon couldn't resist the urge to continue whispering words into his colleague’s ears. “Did you see that? They are trying to shut us up. They know that whatever it is they are doing inside that inventory is evil and we are the only ones who could stop them. They are on the verge o
***Inside the inventory, Quorra and Tierra were still hiding among the shelves. Their bodies were squeezed together in tension as they got themselves ready to take hold of the gas cylinder close to the wall just opposite them.They were not going to hold back this time around as their fear was a silent presence that lurked in the shadow of their resolve.“Listen, Tierra. We have to be very organized when doing this. You would hit the guy with the full beard. Do you see him?”“Yes, yes,” Tierra responded.“I will hit the other guy. Remember we have to be hard enough. We would be doing it in self-defense because right now our lives are at stake. Do you get it?”“Yes, sure.”Tierra kept muttering the words to herself. ‘I will just get the fire extinguisher and charge towards the bearded guy.”She kept saying the words repeatedly to herself until they heard a loud boom from outside.The sound jolted Tierra into place as she turned to Quorra and asked. “Did you hear that?”Quorra shuddere
Tierra couldn't help but blame herself in her mind. She hesitated, she fvcking hesitated, she thought to herself. If she had been intense and hard the way that Quorra did her assault, perhaps it would have been the two men on the ground writhing in pain. They would have had a much better chance of escaping and even freeing everyone else from the bondage of the terrible criminals, Tierra thought. She was such a failure. She felt like she deserved to die. After all, she had everything in her hands but threw it away. If only they could spare Quorra at least, she didn't deserve to die also for her mistakes.Zonam made a strained effort to rise as his body shook with effort. He tried to push himself up even though his muscles were weak but he made sure that he was going to struggle until he regained his footing.His breath was coming in ragged gasps as his colleague, Uqaman waited patiently for him until he was able to regain his footing.“I’m okay, man. Woohoo that was such a hit!” Zonam
Zonam and Uqaman’s attention was focused elsewhere as the sound of Tierra’s cries was falling on deaf ears.The dark agents traced their steps to the starting point of the inventory as they lighted a flickering fire on the bundle of tinder, the flames dancing and crackling with hungry energy.The flames were licking and crackling with a wide energy as they gradually spread and consumed the space. The carton boxes of goods at the initial point of the inventory were getting burnt as the fire traveled.Quorra and Tierra couldn't help but have themselves to blame as they waited patiently for the fire to consume them. Quorra hurried her head between her laps and prayed a silent prayer for her soul. They had gotten to a hopeless situation and it seemed like this time, there was no escape.***Alan and Della had received inside information from people around where his warehouse was located that it was no longer safe there.The receptionist had also put a call through to Alan as he was on the
