Rostos figured that the right decision was to deploy all the resources into looking for Elaine first before trying to exact revenge on Alan but when he told the mayor, he didn't listen to him. He wished the mayor had listened to his advice but they were now in a worse situation than they had found themselves initially.All they could do was hope that the pictures that were taken of them weren't going to go far but the chances of that happening was quite low.There was still a missing link though and they needed to find Elaine to know what the missing link was. Rostos was in deep thought as he thought of how he could salvage the situation. Taking pictures of them outside Chester’s house wasn't so much of an evidence if she didn't have something else to back her up with.Could it be that it wasn't even Alan that Elaine teamed up with? Was something else at play? Rostos was quite confused and didn't know what to think anymore.Mayor Carney on the other hand was still livid with anger.

It was clear that the mayor needed an avenue through which he could release his anger and landing a slap each on the watchmen’s faces was the best way he could achieve that in that moment.The watchmen also made it easy as they didn't hide their faces from the mayor but instead stood alert to receive their punishments.“You all are lucky that I will have to stop for now so that I can attend the governorship debate,” Mayor Carney’s teeth were bare with anger. “We are not done with this. I need to prepare for this debate and that is the only reason why I haven't done worse to you all.”***The air was charged with the electricity of political combat as the audience sat in tense silence.Everyone had been anticipating the governorship debate for quite a while now because it would allow each of the candidates to really show why they were better suited for the elections.The room buzzed with a low murmur of anticipation as their bodies were rigid with nervous energy. Journalists swarmed t

Mayor Carney’s eyes twinkled with a sparkle of pride as he raised a hand at his lively supporters. His pride was a silent fortress of arrogance as he laughed hysterically. The taste of temporary triumph was definitely sweet to his soul and all of a sudden, he forgot about the disappointment he had to face with being unable to find Elaine. His anger at the watchmen all seemed to have disappeared and he felt like the proudest man on earth.Mayor Carney’s thrill was a potent force that left him visible. He felt like nothing was in his way anymore.The host of the event, Oprah Povac then took control of the stage as she turned towards Mayor Carney.“So, Mayor, the floor is yours now.”Mayor Carney adjusted his suit, his body language straight and confident as he held court on the stage. “Alright, Mr. Felix Lincoln, I believe that you worked as the minister of welfare development for three years.”“But as we all know you recently experienced a delicate scandal which till today you have r

Was Mr. Felix really serious or was he just trying to get back at the mayor for the accusations he received earlier? Was he seriously saying that the Mayor was a murderer?Their disbelief was powerful and overwhelming and even Felix’s supporters in the crowd started to wonder if he was in his right mind.‘That was such a huge statement to make and Felix better have some evidence to back up such an assertion,’ some of his supporters reasoned.Mayor Carney’s expression hardened with a deadly tightening of annoyance. His gaze shifted to the host as he sent her a facial expression as if warning her to tell Felix to restrain from such ridiculous assertions.But even Ms. Oprah Povac waited a few more seconds even when she knew that the debate seemed to be getting out of hand. She was curious as to whether Felix actually knew what he was talking about.It was clear that Mayor Carney was alone in defending himself at that moment so he quickly interrupted Felix.“Mr. Felix, are you aware that

A confident smirk formed on Felix’s face. His shoulders squared and his head held high as he laid out his evidence. “You are asking for evidence? You will receive the evidence soon. As a matter of fact, you all will receive the evidence and you will be shocked as to how this state would be doing itself a huge favor by condemning men like Mayor Carney and ensuring they get what they truly deserve.”Ms. Oprah Povac quickly erupted into a serious jolt of alertness that almost made her jump on her feet.It was as if she had fire all over her body. What had just happened was that she received information through her earbud device. She couldn't process what she was hearing because of the delicate nature of the information but she had to express those things that were said to her into words.“Erm, erm, sorry, ladies and gentlemen, please excuse the interruption but I am afraid that I have some startling information that I need to share with you all.”“I have just been made aware of this tr

It became clear to the Mayor that it was Elaine who exposed the sound recordings of his conversation with Officer Rostos.Mayor Carney had tried as much as possible to deny the reality before that moment but now that everything was up in the air and a state of destruction, there was no difficulty in tracing the missing link. It was Elaine all along. It had always been Elaine. Mayor Carney gritted his teeth in frustration and a toxic force left him seething with resentment. His well-tailored black suit was already looking so tattered and soaked with sweat. The sharp lines of his jacket were non-existent after he had stretched his arm in a jittery and frustrating manner many times.Mayor Carney’s assistant, Mr. Freeman, the middle-aged man with a full mustache and no beard couldn't help but see his boss being so frustrated. The mayor was hitting tables and punching walls in frustration as all the aides just stood watching him go crazy. None of them knew what words they could say or

“We still have something to fight for,” Freeman spoke reassuringly. “Right now, we still have hundreds of people rallying outside in your support. They are all outside gathering and waiting to see your face.”“All they need to hear is that all of this is a ploy to destroy you. These people rallying outside will believe anything you say. You just have to find the words and they really don't have to be perfect. They just have to show that you are still confident in winning the elections.”“Look, boss, I know that we are in a disadvantaged position right now with all the evidence leveled against us but those supporters waiting outside will listen to everything you say and hail you.”Mayor Carney’s shoulders were beginning to relax, his posture becoming less defensive and rigid as he allowed himself to consider the possibilities of success. He had to consider what Freeman was saying. Truly, the ball was in his court and even though he was losing the match at the 90th minute, there was st

“But I assure you that I am heinous of the terrible crimes that I have been accused of.”The crowd murmurs were rising every moment with an insistent force that left the mayor’s words sounding unconvincing.Their mutterings were loud and a discontented whisper filled the atmosphere. Many of them would need more than those empty words to convince them even if they wanted to so desperately believe that the mayor didn't do all that was leveled against him.“What’s this supposed to mean?”“Is he just coming out to outrightly deny everything?”“What does he think we are? Fools? Id!ots? Dump people? Honestly, this is so embarrassing.”“He is really lying openly without any shame.”“He is a murderer. That’s what he is.”“I wonder why he hasn't been arrested yet. The evidence was clear.”“How did he even get to a position where he is allowed to contest for a governorship election? How did he win the primaries election?”“Who knows how many other people he killed? He murdered his way to his p

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
