“I actually agree with you, Kobren,” Bastos responded. “It is very cruel that someone would command that others should be killed one after the other like that.“That’s what happens when people are greedy for money,” Kobren responded. “They are ready to kill without thinking about repercussions. I hope Alan hastens his punishment as quickly as possible.”Just as Kobren and Bastos were talking, they suddenly got themselves encircled by a ring of watchmen. They looked around and their eyes bulged in surprise because of how swiftly the men had gathered around them.It was as if they didn't walk up to them but appeared instead. Kobren and Bastos had their faces pale with fear as they realized that they were outnumbered.Kobren also watched closely at the men’s loins so that they were also properly armed. They scanned the circle of watchmen and they felt like the ground should open up and swallow them or else they would be victims.There was no way that they were going to survive such a dea

Officer Rostos brought out his cuff from his belt handle and walked towards the two men while they were seated.With swift efficiency, he bound the cuff onto the two men, their hands kept captive as they wondered the extent of trouble that they had gotten into.“Hey, hey, what’s going on, Sir? Why do we have to be cuffed?” Bastos asked, writhing against the binds of the cuff in a futile effort. “What have we done except to deliver the instruction we were asked? I hope you are not about to do something funny.”Officer Rostos didn't even say a word, his lips kept in a tight line as he selected a tape, the sound of the tape being ripped from a roll echoing through the air much to the terror of the two men.Within seconds, he pressed the tape firmly against Bastos’ lips despite the struggling muffled voice that was coming out from Bastos’ throat.With Bastos taped in the mouth, Officer Rostos also did the same to Kobren, his hands moving with efficient precision.Officer Rostos then escor

How would they react to the news that he was no more? How could they possibly survive? His daughter was only 5 years old and had just survived a delicate surgery on her face. Kobren had promised his daughter a lot of things if she held on through the surgery process and remained strong. How would he fulfill his promises to his daughter if Mayor Carney killed him? “My name is Kobren,” He finally responded, his eyes lowered with terror.“Come on, raise your head and look at me, look straight into my eyes when talking to me,” Mayor Carney instructed.Kobren then lifted his face, his body shivering with terror as he had his hand bound behind the chair in helplessness.“Now, tell me. How do you intend to die?” Mayor Carney asked. “I want to make your death as swift as possible because I have election business to deal with.”Kobren’s words came out spilling with a torrent of fear and anguish, his throat working to keep up with the tension of the moment. “Please, don't kill me. Give me an

Bastos’ plea fell on deaf ears as the mayor brought the nylon much loser. “Just let it go, man. Let it go. Don’t fight it, death isn't such a bad adventure after all,” Mayor Carney spoke.Bastos’ eyes bulged with terror as he tried to scream but this time, Mayor Carney had pressed the nylon onto his face to his utmost terror.Bastos’ voice emerged as a strangled wheeze as he fought for air, his hands clawing at the nylon.He was determined to put up a fight. He wasn't going to die just like that, he had to fight for his life.He stretched his legs as if to kick the mayor but it felt as if his energy kept reducing each time he tried to apply pressure. His hands tried so hard to remove the nylon that had encased his head as his vision began to blur.Bastos was suddenly losing his senses little by little and his vision was beginning to go blurry. The lack of oxygen eventually took a toll on his body as he slumped into the cold abyss of death.His limbs grew slack and lifeless as life wa

Mayor Carney’s face curled into a smirk that spelled the very words that he had in his mind - I told you so.Mayor Carney soon got to his office rooms and everyone was busy with analysis. Various men in suits were taking note of data and potential vote probabilities in various localities. It was a busy environment and the moment Mayor Carney walked into the office hall, two men in suits followed behind him awaiting instructions.“Get me secretary Elaine right away,” Mayor Carney instructed one of his aides.His aide returned after a few minutes, his face looking pale and it was clear that there wasn’t any positive news.“Where is she?” Mayor Carney queried. “I am sorry sir but she is nowhere to be found at the moment,” the aide responded.“What do you mean by that?” Mayor Carney asked, his temper rising gradually. “I need my secretary right now. Where could she possibly be?”The aide didn't want the mayor to get more upset so he went back again and checked around for the secretary.

Ms. Elaine started breathing heavily soon again the moment she heard Alan’s booming voice.It soon dawned on Alan that perhaps he had talked in a way that made her uncomfortable again. “So sorry, Elaine. Please continue, but are you sure about this? Do you work for the mayor? I thought you got a job as a librarian?”“Oh, that is in the past now. I resigned as a librarian only 3 weeks after I got the job. I started working for Mayor Carney since then and I quickly rose through the ranks until I became his secretary. I am sure of what I am telling you because I am one of those who work closely with him.”Alan was beginning to have ideas drop in his head. Was it all a ploy by the mayor to lure him? But from the way Elaine sounded, Alan could tell that she was genuinely scared because of what she might have heard or seen.“I am very sure of what I am saying, Mr. Greyson. I owe you a lot from previous years when you saved my daughter and that is why I am telling you this. I also think that

Ms. Elaine gritted her teeth in frustration as she struggled to deal with the reality. That was the moment she needed the torchlight the most. How could she leave such a dark environment without illumination?It wasn't even like the light from her phone was bright enough to overcome the darkness in the alley but at least it was something. It was better than having nothing.She turned to her right but it was all pitch-black darkness. When she moved to her left, it was the same darkness that greeted her. Soon, there wasn't even anything popping on her phone anymore as it had switched off on its own.How would Alan now get through to her in case he had something to say? It felt like every source of help had been cut off from her at that moment. What even made her think that it was wise to follow Mayor Carney and Officer Rostos into such a delicate location? Even though she had escaped Officer Rostos’ suspicion, she had to grapple with getting herself free from the terrible place.Havi

She was soon with the phone in her hand as she figured out the spot through which she would escape.Just as she was about to climb the fence through which she would get into the final route of escape, she heard a voice booming from the darkness.“Hey! Who is in there? Come back now!”Ms. Elaine’s heart leaped out of her chest in terror and her eyes widened with terror as she heard the menacing voice.She immediately clawed and climbed over the fence, her breath coming in short, gasping bursts as she fought to get away from the danger that lurked in the darkness.Her mind was a blur of fear and adrenaline as she quickly escaped through the fence and ran without looking back until she finally got into the offices.Ms. Elaine’s hair was a tangled mess and her clothes were soaked with sweat and grass particles from where she hid in the bushes.Her hair was plastered against her face as she walked through the offices, her footsteps silent and careful as she sought to avoid detection. Her

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
