The restaurant erupted into a fuss of shouts and cries as everyone scrambled to understand the source of the chaos. The confusion exploded moved many of the people there to hide for safety.

“Hey, hey. Keep your head down. It's a criminal attack.”

“Watch, watch!”

“Come back here, don’t go too close.”

“My goodness, I was just about to leave.”

“It's too late now. Just keep your head down.”

The occupants of the restaurant had their voices filling the air in confusion as they sought to protect themselves.

Alan’s face was a mask of menacing fury as he dragged the other man by the hair, his features hardened by the unforgiving snarl of anger.

Alan dragged the man along until they got to the restaurant’s restroom.

Thump!

The man was welcomed with a powerful thump to the face the moment he was dragged into the restroom.

“Where is Grady, eh?” Alan demanded, his lips curled into a fearsome scowl.

“I have no idea what you are talking about, man,” he responded.

Kpoom!

Alan threaded another ferocio

    Alan whispered. “Yeah, I think so.”Alan then pushed the window frame open after skillfully applying pressure to the edges until it gave way. He then held the window net in a way that it wasn't going to land on the bare ground and create a sound.When the net rested, Alan’s senses were attuned to the slightest of disturbances and his movements were as deliberate as a panther on the hunt as he crept through the window.Chester followed from behind after Alan had cautioned him not to make any sounds. They had entered through the kitchen windows and crept through the room until Sharapova’s pleading voice became more audible.“I swear I am telling the truth. If I knew where Chester is, I would tell you.”“I don’t know where he is. The only thing I want is my baby, she doesn't deserve this.”Alan recognized the voice and discovered that it wasn't Grady. Many questions were going on in his mind but there wasn't much time left for answers - he had to act quickly.Alan’s body was a coiled sp

    Her face was contorted with a wrinkle of concern and her line of thought was hijacked by Alan’s speech.“Here, take this gun,” Alan spoke. “This is how you are going to use it. You just pull this place, it is called the trigger okay? But I assure you that there won't be any reason for you to shoot him. Look at him, he is properly tied up.”Sharapova’s face was still etched with worry. “But why don't you just kill him once and for all? If he is dead, we don't have to worry about him anymore right?”Alan swallowed. “That is not entirely correct, we might still need him and that is why we need to keep him alive just in case. Come on, take it.”Alan then handed the gun to Sharapova who was still shivering in fear before he gestured for Chester to follow him as they searched for Ivy.Chester, noticing that his wife was very much jittery moved closer to her with his voice hushed and his eyes soft in an expression of concern. “Hey, darling, I know you are scared right now but it would be alr

    The man made a mockery of Sharapova’s threats, his eyes gleaming with a glint of amusement. “Are you still upset that I had you all tied up the other time? I just wanted Chester, that’s all. If we have Chester, you could be free. I didn't want to hurt you. To be honest, I was actually liking you.”“Damn you!” Sharapova seethed.“I think I am beginning to like you even more. I like it more when you talk. I was right about you being so much better than what the man you call your husband deserves.”Sharapova chose not to talk this time. Each statement the man was making was aimed at frustrating her and he was doing a great job at that.“I can keep a secret just in case you were wondering,” the man spoke, his voice laced with a sarcastic whisper as he nudged his head forward. “Tell me, is the girl really his daughter?”Sharapova’s face was contorted with a raw and explosive fury and her heart was pulsing dangerously. “How dare you?! Are you insane? Are you out of your mind? What kind of s

    But just at that moment, the man who had dodged the bullet tore at the ropes like a best unleashed, his hands breaking free from the ropes and the chair as he charged towards Sharapova.The woman’s heart pounded with a frantic beat of terror and her blood raced with a pulse of panic as the man lashed at her.With primal aggression, the man twisted her hands and bent her wrist bone before his hands struck with a deadly grip of iron, and his fingers closed around the gun as he snatched it from her.Before Sharapova could know what was going on, she found her hands empty as the gun was now in the hands of the man.Sharapova’s eyes darted wildly with disbelief as her lungs burned with a rhythm of panic. She couldn't believe what had just happened to her. It was like one of those film tricks that happened on TV shows except this time it was happening to her.She stared at her hands for a few seconds and wondered how the gun had so quickly vanished from her hands.The man’s fingers tightene

    Alan kept punching his face and stomach with an intense energy but there was no time as he noticed that on-lookers had gathered around and were staring at him. That wasn’t what he wanted. He started hearing whispers from behind him.“Damn, that guy has suffered one hell of a beating!”“What could be happening? Has someone called the police?”“Oh, but I think he is guilty of something.”“Damnit! Why don't you guys just stay away from there? This could be more serious than we think.”Alan realized that staying there much longer could cause a situation that he didn't want so he left the kidnapper battered on the rests of his chair inside the car. “Well, that should send a message to Grady,” Alan spoke, his voice tinged with contempt.Chester who was running from behind had already met up with Alan and dragged open the backseat door.Chester’s eyes were filled with a sudden wave of emotion as Ivy latched onto his arms the moment she saw him open the car door.“Daddy!” She screamed in joy

    Nicholas was at a loss for words. He darted back and forth in his room, staring at the ceiling while also jamming one of his feet to the ground in tension.Hanson spoke again. “It's not going to harm if we spend the night and maybe a few more nights at my girlfriend’s place. She is a very nice lady and she could definitely accommodate the both of us for a few nights.”“What?!” Nicholas’ jaw dropped in an exaggerated display of shock. “Are you kidding me? Your girlfriend’s place is where you think is best for us to spend a few nights.”Nicholas scoffed, turning his back against his brother.“Where else do you think we should go? At least I have friends that I can always ask for help whenever there is a problem,” Hanson spoke in disapproval.“Oh, and I am the loner, right? I am a loner who has no friends or a girlfriend. I get it, okay? I get it,” Nicholas responded, his eyebrows furrowed in a growing frustration.Hanson then heaved a sigh before walking straight across to meet Nicholas

    “I wish we had all the time in the world to talk about this but the truth is that we don't. Alan is going to be here very soon as soon as I get you both out of here but you should know that you are his last target. He won't hesitate to come here and kill you just as he had done to the six other miners before you,” Della argued, her gaze turning left and right as she sought to access the surroundings.Hanson’s expression was still guarded as he sought a sign of deception by interrogating Della. “How then is it that you couldn't save the other six who died? If the assassin wants my brother as well, what makes you think that anything you do right now could save him.”Della heaved a weary sigh. She wasn't in the mood for the back-and-forth conversation. “Shouldn’t that be more of a testament to how dangerous Grady is and why we shouldn't waste time arguing.”“How is it a waste of time when we don't know you neither do we know if what you are saying is true. Anyone who had bad intentions c

    “Well, well, well. It looks like we are going to be doing a little hide-and-seek today, isn't it Nicholas?” Grady spoke out loud, his voice laced with a sarcastic mockery.The whole environment was quiet as there was barely any sign that anyone was there. Nicholas and Hanson had taken their places in the attic while Della was with her gun taking cover behind a pillar under the stairs.Grady fired several other warning shots into the walls and ceilings as the roar of gunfire filled the space. “Come out wherever you are now, Nicholas. There is no escaping this. I know that you are here so that shouldn't be a question. I also know that you are listening to me right now.”Nicholas’ heart was pounding heavily as he listened to every word that Grady spoke. His eyes were sunken with a posture of fear. How could he survive the dread that was approaching? Every yelling that escaped Grady’s lips seemed to be giving him flashbacks of how his abusive father was.He kept shaking his head and using

    He was in a hurry to get things done quickly because he knew that it was going to be only a matter of time before the guards would discover that the public service system had been hacked.“When you get on the other side of the purple fence, just hang in there until we come to get you okay?”Jackson’s hands were large and measured, his touch gentle as he took Brody’s hands into his own.“Come on, I will show you the way and then you will complete the move,” Jackson’s voice was soft, his voice sincere as he was careful not to scare the boy with too much haste even though he was in a hurry and rightfully so.They crept until they got to the entrance which was just a few meters away from where they were. Jackson’s eyes were alert as he watched to see that there was no guard close to them that would impede their move.They hid behind the cars, creeping through the shadows with their eyes narrowed with a tense intent to get as far away from view as possible.Jackson then reached a point whe

    “Come on, let’s go. We can't just sit here and do nothing after all. We have to do something.”With a grim determination, the guards all filed out of the lobby one after the other, their footsteps resounding through the empty hallways.The tension was palpable in the air as their weapons glinted in the harsh fluorescent light.Their bodies were taut with adrenaline as they headed towards their destination.Alan’s face glimmered with a relieved twinkle of gratitude the moment he saw that the guards had all gone.He then whispered to Jackson. “Hey, Jackson. Call Fred now and tell him to his way to the purple fence area. That’s the easiest route out of here. Tell him to get there as quickly as possible. That’s where Brody would have to go meet him.”Brody was confused, his face darting left and right as he was trying to understand what Alan was saying.Where was he saying that he was going to go? Since when did the plan become that he was going to go somewhere?Alan crouched down, his fa

    “No one, I believe. You see what I am saying. What if they already got past this place and they are already heading outside.”“Think about it, I don’t think they would want to escape through the outside. Look at the way that they came in. We didn’t even know. None of us knew until they got to the top floor and killed two guards.”“It’s obvious they are trained so we have to think along the line of the fact that they are more than prepared for this.”“They probably outlined every step of the way before they came.”“Not probably, man. They did, it’s quite obvious.”“I guess it’s a draw right now. Mr. Lawrence already has one of them while they have gotten Brody.”“We must get back Brody, man. That’s the instruction. Mr. Lawrence has ordered a closure of all entry points right now and it is already in process. Everything must be on lockdown until Brody is found.”“We can’t afford to fool around.”“What if they are holed up in one of the offices? We should search each room systematically.

    Mr. Lawrence then moved his eyes closer to Della’s face to get a clearer view of what was going on.“Wait, what? You look familiar,” Mr. Lawrence’s eyes narrowed, his gaze piercing into Della with the intensity of a predator sizing up its prey.His expression was hardened as a cruel smile spread across his face.“You look awfully and strangely familiar I must say,” Mr. Lawrence remarked again.He wasn’t sure of whether to keep up with his suspicion or to ignore it. He was sure that there was something about her that was too strange to ignore.It dawned on him that the person that she traced her face to was actually that of Rose Billing, the same woman that he murdered.He paused once more and spoke. “I know who you are, don’t I?”Della’s lips curled very slightly by the side as if she was trying to give Mr. Lawrence the clue that he needed.And Mr. Lawrence picked up the clue. He was shocked by the resemblance that Della had with Rose and even though he tried to ignore it as nothing b

    “You are Brody, aren’t you?” Alan asked.The boy nodded in affirmation. Jackson’s grip on Brody’s hands loosened and Brody’s shoulders were relaxed gradually even though he knew subconsciously that there were most likely going to be some problems lying ahead.“I know you,” Brody spoke to Alan. “I saw you the other day when Mr. Lawrence killed Rose. You are Rose’s husband right?”Alan paused as if he was in a deep emotional thought before he then nodded.“Yes, I was.”It was a moment of reflection for both Alan and Brody as they both seemed to have missed Rose.Brody didn’t get to spend much time with Rose but it was obvious that the little time that he had spent with her was more than enough for him to miss her for a lifetime possibly.“And Della, the lady who texted on the phone. Are you her partner? Do you work with her? Where is she?” Brody asked.He was in a hurry to receive answers to his questions because he was still a little bit scared.“She is going to be with us soon, Brody

    The air seemed to thicken with tension, the silence broken only by the faint click of gun safeties being engaged.Alan then whispered into his radio, hoping that he was going to connect with Della. “Della, are you there? We are about to open fire on the guards who want to lock Brody in the basement. We are going to need backup, over.”That was all Alan needed to say and he believed that he had said enough already.They moved a few more steps with deadly precision, their footsteps soft and stealthy as they crept closer to the guards. They saw as the guards were shoving and dragging Brody and this time, they were going to lock him into the basement.They were no longer interrogating him about the phone because there were bigger issues to deal with.But Alan and Jackson thought that it was time to raise a response.The guards burst the basement door open and were prepared to shove Brody into a dark room but there was a sudden startling noise of gunfire.Pow! Pow!Boom!The hail of bulle

    Alan was just a few feet away hiding behind one of the pillars. The moment she saw the harsh slap that was performed against the boy, he gritted his teeth in frustration as he became provoked to cause a disruption.Why would they treat such a young boy like that? He had to hold and keep himself in check so that they would stay according to plan.But considering the way he was feeling, he wished that he could just start a gunfire right away. He began to rethink whether it was best to engage the guards with gunfire right away or if they should wait a while until Brody got locked in the basement and they would try to open it up.Just as he was still having a deliberation in his mind, the guards continued with their harsh treatment toward the boy.“Yeah, right, we are not stupid,” Guard two spoke. “Look at the faces of all of us standing here.”Brody’s face was still facing the ground as he was dealing with the harsh effect of the assault but he felt a hand shove his head back up so that

    Alan and Jackson froze in place, his breath caught in his throat as he clung himself to the wall. His heart pounded in his chest as he heard the guards’ footsteps growing closer.Time seemed to be very slow as the guards drew nearer, their footsteps echoing off the walls of the hallway but Alan gripped his weapon tightly just in case the situation was going to demand it.But as they got closer, two other guards joined them. They now seemed to be five and they were discussing.Alan and Jackson were picking up on their conversations.“The boss said to keep him in the basement.”“There are many ways that the boss can get the boy on his side. After all, he is his son. I don’t see why there should be an issue between them.”“The boy is a cool guy to me.”“This isn’t about whether he is a cool guy or not. We should listen to what the boss says.”“Come on, this is not to say that I wouldn’t listen to what he says. I am only telling you as a colleague that there is no need for being so harsh

    Fred was ready to go for it all. “If you need our main ID badge, my colleague can go them now. She will get mine too but I was hoping you would already know the company we are coming from. We already have a contract here.”The guard who was talking balderdash earlier scurried into the conversation. “But I haven’t seen you guys before. Especially the bright-skinned darling we have here. I would have known if I had seen her before.”Fred responded. “Well, we are not always the same and I am sure you already know that. Today, it is our shift to come to complete the repairs and as we said, we are actually running out of time.”“My colleague can quickly go and get the ID badges if that is what is delaying us from entry.”Fred was speaking with the hope that the guard was going to shrug off the situation and ask Della not to worry.But he needed to show that he wasn’t hiding something and the only way that he could do that effectively was to pretend as if everything was going fine and as ex
