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
Perhaps he would be forced to take someone else’s life after Laimer. That wasn't what he planned but if the lady was so stupid to knock at them of all places to knock, then she probably deserved death, he thought.The agent tucked the pistol away from sight with a stealthy gesture, his hands moving in a subtle and discreet efficiency as he tried to avoid detection. “I am going to open up to her,” he told his fellow agent - Agent Blackie as called by his cabal of criminals.Blackie’s face was fierce as a wild animal didn't even look bothered as he just nodded affirmatively while he also kept his gun away from sight.Robert and Droppel, who were seated at the back seat were in awe of the fact that a woman was going to have the courage to approach them when everything seemed dangerous. The agent then opened up the glass window and spoke. “How may I help you, Madam?”“Erm, it's just that I am lost. I planned to go to East Carolan City but when I dropped at the last taxi stop, I was conf
Robert and Droppel’s gaze darted around as they exchanged gazes repeatedly in confusion because they didn't understand what Della spoke.Della chuckled. “Oh, you don't understand French? Oops forgive me, sometimes I forget these tiny details. I was asking if you are good now.”Robert and Droppel were still terrified that they couldn't open their mouths to respond to Droppel. They couldn't possibly trust her yet until they felt comfortable with her and the way things were looking, it was going to take quite a while. They were still trying to observe what her motives truly were.“Which of you was the one who called Alan Greyson, eh?”At the hearing of the question, Robert’s mind skipped a bit. He and his friend knew that she must have been an ally of Alan Greyson sent to help them.Droppel used his eye to send a signal to Della in response to her question, trying to show her that it was the dead body lying not too far from the truck that was the one who tried to call Alan Greyson.Della
Dwight had heightened the potency of his speech after k!lling the lady because he knew that at that point, there was nothing to be cautious about anymore. He had already shown them how dangerous he could be by shooting the lady even though he tried his best to avoid such a situation.But now that he had earned the utmost feat of the employees, he had every single arsenal in his hands. He knew that even if he told them to lie flat on the ground, they would do it without any hesitation. Fear had crept into their hearts with a huge force and he was enjoying every moment of it.“You all don't know that your names have been marked just because you work here. Well, you didn't know that but now you know.”“By the time we are done here, we will ensure that every one of you who happens to be alive will be visited constantly and I mean horrible visits, haha.”Dwight’s laughter reverberated with a frenzied intensity and his expression was wild and crazy. He was enjoying every bit of the moment b
Dwight’s face was twisted with disbelief as he stared at the defiant Della. His eyes were narrowed with a deadly glint of fury as he gestured for Della to come over to the podium where he was. “Why don’t you come over here, eh? Haha, who would have thought that someone would be so foolish enough to defy me.”Della strode fearlessly through the crowd, her body exuding courage and her eyes flashing with determination as she made her way toward the podium, her steps firm and resolute.The workers watched with horror as Della walked. They all knew that she was walking into her death and some of them were kind enough to still whisper some words to discourage her from the deadly adventure that she was about to take.“Hey, what is your name? You are literally walking into your death?”“Don’t you have a family that cares for you? Why would a beautiful lady like you think that you would possess what it takes to even scratch this man.”“Woman, disembark from the mission. I am begging you. I don
A morbid curiosity spread through the crowd, their fear melting into fascination as watched the unfolding event. Their expression was mixed with fear and intrigue.They started to feel that probably Della had a few tricks up her sleeves for her to know where Dwight’s weapon was. They could also see the surprise in Dwight’s eyes after Della told him about the pocket knife.If she could get Dwight surprised, perhaps she had something in her that could tilt the course of the fight in her direction, they thought.But others were still largely unmoved. It was a suicide mission that she attempted and it was only a matter of time before she had her blood splattered across the ground.“The uniform doesn't fit you though. It looks like something that you stole from someone else,” Della spoke, her words playful and taunting as she teased Dwight. “Perhaps you should have chosen one of the ones that your colleagues took.”Dwight’s breath was held in a deadly gasp of surprise as he couldn't help b
The sound of gunfire was still ringing in the air when he lay still, his life snuffed out of him in a single deadly moment.An awestruck silence fell over the workers as they struggled to process the result of the fight. Their eyes were wide with fear as they wondered what kind of woman would defeat Dwight so quickly and clearly.How come none of them knew her and she acted as if she was one of the warehouse workers? Some of them thought that she had to be some freak because of the way that she handled the situation.***Inside the inventory, Zonam and Uqaman had successfully set up a scorching blaze to the inventory, the flames roaring to life with a fierce intensity as the fire devoured the stock. The heat radiated out words and each of the boxes inside the shelves was getting burnt, the flame climbing higher and higher as the two men prepared to hop on the ladder to escape the inventory through the window.“Come on, let’s go. You go first while I go after you,” Zonam spoke to Uqam
