Meanwhile, Alan landed on the thick bush which formed a dense wall of green, its foliage blocking out the sky. The path before Alan was an endless tangle of roots. The trees were a wall of green, standing tall and the branches and vines twisting and tangling around them.

Alan wondered the extent of trouble that he had gotten himself into. It was always going to be difficult to navigate his way past the swamps and thick trees. He began to wonder if he had not made a mistake by escaping the gym center. Perhaps he should have just allowed the cops to arrest him as well and then he would later clear his name.

He thought that he would be able to find his way to the office when he came down into the bush but he had been walking around for almost 10 minutes and it seemed like he had not even made any progress. It was like he was running in circles and there was no improvement. There was no route of escape.

He would have been doing something much more productive than wandering in a thick

    He didn't know his way out of the bush on his own. Even if the cops all left at once and decided that they weren't going to try capturing him, he would still be doomed because he didn't know the way out.Was it not better to surrender to a group of people who would most likely know their way out? They wouldn’t reach that far if they were all going to be lost in the search for him, he thought.When he got out he was then going to sort himself with the cops.Was it a good idea? He asked himself, nodding with his mind filled with quick thoughts. Erm! No, he muttered under his breath.He wouldn't surrender to them just like that. He had done nothing wrong. It was best for him to assume that they didn't know his face. He knew that the thugs he dealt with at the gym center weren't going to tell him.Why would he reveal his facial identity if there was still a chance to escape without any trace?With a burst of swiftness and strength, he used his claws to grasp the towering tree before he s

    Anyway, he wasn't going to worry too much about it, he thought. Maybe it was a glitch that was going to correct itself soon.He was trying to find a better spot on top of the tree where he was going to get a better view but he heard a faint rustle.What was that? He asked himself.Damn!His phone slipped out of his pocket as he watched in slow-motion horror. His face fell and his heart sank into his stomach at the realization of the fact that the cops would have been aware of it. He began cursing under his breath until the doom that he expected crawled closer.“Commanding Officer Felicia!” one of the cops yelled out. “Here is something we have found. There is a phone which fell up from this tree. I saw it clearly.”Officer Felicia, the team leader of the operation, rushed toward the spot where there was an alarm.“Oh my! He is hiding in the midst of one of these trees,” Officer Felicia spoke.She adjusted and tuned her gaze upward, examining the top of the tree with an eagle-eyed prec

    Officer Andreas broke the silence as he held a stack of files in his hands even though he hadn’t read it once since he arrived in the room for two minutes. It didn’t seem like he was going to use the files anyway.“Well, Mr. Greyson, I am sure you know why you were arrested.”“I have no idea. I have been hoping that you were going to explain it to me but I have received no explanation for the minutes that I have been here,” Alan retorted, his voice sharp with displeasure.Officer Vincent scoffed, his face contorted with arrogance. “Well, we have only started and you are talking as if we have kept you here for a long time.”Alan didn’t understand what the officer meant by them only starting with the interrogation. Was it supposed to be something that would take a whole day? How long does it take to ask a simple question? As far as he was concerned, if they had asked their questions and they saw no fault in him, he was free to go. He would demand his freedom with everything he had insid

    “You should focus on the real issue here. The three men you arrested are criminals. They have just returned from prison a few months ago but it appears that they want to strengthen their force.”“The more you focus on me, the more you lose sight of something that shouldn’t be let loose. I am not the problem here. I own a whole consortium. I could make a phone call now and this place would be brimming with tons of lawyers who would be willing to defend me with their last breaths. I am—-”“Keep shut!” Andreas snarled, his voice was a cold and cutting growl. “How dare you tell us where to focus on? Are you our commander to give us instructions? Look let me tell you, there are lines that I will never accept that you cross. There are things that I would never accept that you say. You dare not speak to us like that ever again or else I will make sure that I cut your tongue and wrap it around your neck.”There was so much anger in Andreas’ voice as his eyes narrowed in a cold fury. He nudged

    Officer Vincent continued. “You see, I expected that you should know better than to say some things. Now you made my colleague angry, eh? Trust me, you don’t want to get any of us angry because that would mean so much doom for you.”Alan just stared blankly not giving too much attention to the nonsense that was spilling out of Officer Vincent’s mouth. He knew that he was just taunting him.Or perhaps he should try using his ability on Vincent. Maybe there could be something valuable to be hacked into if he searched his thoughts.But just as Alan was thinking about Vincent, Officer Andreas bumped into the interrogation room again, his eyes stern and his muscles tensed with effort.The anger with which he had on him when he left briefly was still the same when he returned.“As I was saying before I left, I would not have you disrespect us because of whoever you claim you are especially when you wouldn’t use the wealthy position you claim to have to benefit the real people you should ben

    His brain stumbled into remembrance when he recalled that Harrison was one of his staff members in one of his main companies.When Greyson Consortium’s assets were unfrozen by the court and their companies were given a fresh license to operate, there was a scheme undertaken by Alan Greyson where he removed several employees from his companies.Alan, after being given control of operations involving the Greyson consortium, decided that he was only going to have the best workers available to him.At that time, he recalled that the last time the consortium was in operation, some employees were on the blacklist of the company. They had fallen short of the requirements of the company in terms of ethics and hard work.On Harrison’s part, his offense was that he was caught advertising and selling other company’s products in an attempt to make money. The board of directors in the company saw that Harrison wanted to use it as a plan to woo some employees and even customers away from the compan

    Alan’s posture was stiff, his jaw tight with anger as he rejected the guilt that was being thrusted on him. The veins in his neck were pulsing with fury and in abject refusal to accept the blame.“Officer, like I said, it wasn’t just Mr. Harrrison whose contract was terminated. Have you even given a thought as to what happened that warranted his termination?”“Whatever happened was ten years ago when the company was operating without any allegations or threat to its existence. How is it that you guys were able to remember the offenses he committed 10 years ago? I remember how he called me that morning to tell me how excited he was to return to his place of duty,” Officer Harrison spoke.“He had been waiting for the moment when the court was going to declare the assets of your companies unfrozen and when the operation would resume. He waited almost ten years until you eventually put the nail in the coffin.”Alan’s eyes widened, his mouth opening and closing as he struggled to find the

    Officer Andreas’ breath grew shallow with a weakening intake of apprehension and his body was still with anxiety because he knew that everything that had been going on in the interrogation room had nothing to do with the real matter at hand. He knew that he was guilty of going beyond the scope of his right.Every question he asked Alan pointed to the pain he had in his mind from the death of his cousin. Nothing was pointing to the alleged assault or investigation about what happened at the gym.But he wasn’t going to spill his faults to the inspector.“Oh, of course, Inspector. We have gotten a little information from him,” Officer Andreas responded. “He claims that he was only minding his business but he seems to be holding back on whether he was a joint member with the other three or he really assaulted them.”Officer Andreas’ statement was only intended to complicate Alan more and make it look like he did something bad. That was the only thing he wanted. He had sworn in his mind ne

    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
