As Jordan and his team assembled in the temporary training center to get ready for the decisive confrontation with Mr. Elias and the criminal organization, the air was heavy with expectation and resolve. The noise of punching bags being pummeled by fists and the odd clatter of weapons being built reverberated off the walls. Standing in the middle of the room, prepared to lead them through the rigorous training exercises, was Jordan Rivers—a guy with experience and tenacity. His light touch of martial arts to them had meant a lot.

Jordan barked. "Alright, listen up, everyone," his booming voice said above the uproar. "Time is of the essence, and Elias won't wait for us to be prepared. We have to always be one step ahead.”

Officer Adamson, his eyes focused and his jaw set nodded in agreement. "Let's do this. We sure can do this. What is the plan, Jordan?"

Jordan walked to a whiteboard and began outlining the strategy. "We have gathered so much intel on Elias and his operation. We know h

    The training session had been intense for the next couple of days, with Jordan guiding the crew through various martial arts techniques that would prove invaluable in their mission.Elias’ group had been put in a tough spot after realizing that Jordan was not just a naive boy; they could crash as easily as they thought. They had remained in the shackles, quiet and filled with fear as they banged their heads on how they could take down Jordan.

    “May I see that?” Jordan asked as he moved closer to Officer Adamson.Officer Adamson handed him the phone. “There is a big transaction happening tomorrow.”Jordan read through the message carefully, understanding each and every word and carrying it with the intensity it deserved. He finally, after a long moment of re-reading it, handed the phone back to Officer Adamsons. He fumed. “Those bastards! They are shipping drugs worth billions of dollars into the country.”“When is the shipment arriving?” Ana implored.“Tomorrow.” Jordan fumed, a plan lingering in his head.“Tomorrow? So, what is the plan now?” Major asked on behalf of everyone.Jordan took a deep breath before addressing the team, his eyes conveying a sense of determination. "That transaction should not and must not happen. We must not allow it at whatever cost."Officer Adamson leaned forward, her expression matching Jordan's intensity. "Are we intercepting the shipment? Taking them down when they least expect it?"Jordan

  • THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS   THE ATTACK NIGHT

    The meeting place for the criminal alliance's illegal transaction was the abandoned warehouse, and Jordan and his group had gathered there near its entrance. The night was completely dark. Anxiety permeated the air, a tangible tension that cast a thick shadow over the crew. They were in the secretive world of their mission now, the far-off hum of the metropolis seemingly fading away.Gazing over his crew, Jordan stood out like a shadow in the dark cityscape. Each person proceeded purposefully while donning tactical gear, securing equipment, and inspecting guns. A click indicated the oncoming operation's gravity, and there was an intermittent click when ammunition was loaded.In front of them was a warehouse that was falling apart, with broken windows and walls marked by the passage of time. It seemed to be a silent witness to the illegal actions that had taken place inside. The sound of rusted doors creaking as they got closer broke the stillness and signaled them that they had entere

They advanced on their targets with speed and silence. It was Lily's responsibility to keep the alliance's lines of communication cut so that no distress calls could be sent from her temporary command center.Quick, deliberate bursts of gunfire broke out during the initial confrontation.

The room crackled with a charged silence, punctuated only by the echoing footsteps of the approaching confrontation.Razor, realizing that escape was no longer an option, turned to face Jordan and his crew with a defiant glare. "I don’t care who you are, what you want, or how you deal with these people. I am not part of your mission. I have no hand in what you seek, young man! Get out of my way and let me be on my way.”Jordan scoffed at the man walking in a little closer, while his men, Officer Adamson being on the front line with Jordan, trailed close behind Jordan, their weapons aimed at their defenseless opponents. “If you stay close to a person whose bullet is aimed at, you will surely get shot. As long as you are a part of these crooked criminals, you are part of my mission.” Jordan spoke with an unwavering cove and emitted dread.“You can't stop us! We are too po

    "Be careful with them. We don’t know what’s in the." Jordan ordered again, his voice cutting through the lingering tension in the warehouse.“Sure, boss!” The major responded.The crew, their senses still heightened from the confrontation, strolled over to the unassuming bags scattered across the floor. The room was hushed, and the air crackled with a mix of anticipation and curiosity.Each found themselves a bag and unzipped it. As they began to inspect the contents, one by one, one after another, their mouths remained like jars. The atmosphere shifted. The bags, seemingly inconspicuous at first glance, held within them the secrets of the criminal alliance's illicit gains. The crew exchanged glances, their expressions a mix of disbelief and realization.Jake, his eyes widening, broke the silence. "Oo, fucking devil of the criminals! This is a fortune!”“Jordan caught wind of Jake’s awestruck voice. He spoke, strolling over to them. “What are they?”Jordan's eyes widened as he beheld

And he loved their stupidity.Elias gazed at Jordan and spoke with a stern voice without a single tinge of wavering in it. “You are wiser than this, Jordan. I know you know what I mean.”Jordan shook his head and read a memo that said, ‘I know, but I want to hear that crap from your stinking mouth itself’! “No! Please enlighten me, Elias! I might be getting carried away.” Jodan spoke.Elias even managed to smirk, even though he could not tell whether Jordan was toying with his mind or not. He spoke. "Jordan, all I am suggesting is that we can settle this amicably. You don’t have to betray your noble parents by becoming a bloody murderer. Well, if it is revenge that you want, your parents are gone, and you can’t bring them back. Don’t even kill us. I have got something that will surely interest you."Jordan, unmoved, eyed Elias with a steely gaze, his expression portraying no

    “Names? What names, Jordan?” Mr. Elias asked in confusion.Jordan, with a steely gaze, had no time to waste. He needed to get to the heart of the issue as fast as he could. His voice was firm as he spoke. "The names of your supporters. The high-ranking officials who are protecting."The alliance members exchanged uneasy glances, a palpable scent of impending doom slapping at their nostrils. How could they comply with Jordan's request? Revealing the identities of those wielding formidable power felt like signing their own death warrants. And death was what they were trying to escape by all means. How could they negotiate for survival and sell themselves to the devil in the same way?“Jordan, please understand that we cannot do that. It is too dangerous for us. Besides, why do you want the names?” Mr. Elias replied, attempting to mask the tension in his voice.Jordan's eyes narrowed, his frustration bubbling beneath the surface.

    THE ASTONISHING BRAVERY

    The following day, Ana woke up in his old home, the De’luka mansion. Ricotchetting her eyes. Memories lingered—a combo of both good and bad memories. She had slept off there with her entire crew to prepare for the burial.“Are you ready? You can stay back if you want. I will bring the body here.” Jordan said, giving her a morning hug after strolling into her room.Ana sampled everything that Jordan’s body was bleeding on her—the solace, the heat, the comfort. Everything. She appreciated his comfort and his gesture. She then pulled away, and Jordan kept her hands in his. “I appreciate this, Jordan, but I have to do this.”“Are you really sure?” Jordan emphasized."Come on, Jordan! Do I look like I am showing signs of a mental breakdown or something? I am perfect. Besides, you and I know the story behind this man. I'm all good.” She said.Jordan nodded his head. “Alright. I never said that you were about to break down, by the way. I know you are strong. Even more than I am.”‘Yeah, yeah

    BAD NEWS

    “I guess so. We can all say that.” The officer affirmed.A few chatters filled the room for a long time. Who would have thought that a once vigilante group could be saluted by the government, huh?Jordan cleared his voice, speaking to the officer, although everyone was keen. “Whether the government recognizes me or not, I don’t care. But I know how much you loved your job. I also know that you like it, and it is my hope that you have no regrets whatsoever for those few days that you and your boys have been members of this family. I want you to know that I cannot hold you back. If they want to give you back your position, please don’t feel obliged to remain with us. You deserve that position.”Officer Adamson looked at Jordan with so much appreciation and gratitude. “Regrets? What is there to regret about being part of this great community, Jordan? I felt honored that I was lucky to have a chance to meet you all and to partake in your just missions. But, like you said, I feel the need

    THE FATE OF THE GROUP

    As the soft hues of morning began to seep through the windows, the room, once ablaze with celebration, now held a serene stillness. Jordan and his crew, draped in the comforting shadows of a night well spent, found themselves resting on makeshift seats, their weariness a testament to the battles fought and won.The sunlight painted a gentle tableau, revealing the subtle lines of fatigue etched on each face. Yet, amidst the quietude, a sense of unity prevailed. Jordan, observing the camaraderie that had evolved in the past hours, felt a renewed purpose bubbling within him. This wasn't just a crew; they were a band of individuals who had weathered storms together and emerged stronger.Looking at Major, he knew that he had a question to tackle. They looked somehow confused about what to do next, and he knew he owed them an explanation, at least for the sake of their sanity. He remembered how he and Major’s group became participants. Initially, they were just his hired bodyguards, but ove

    CELEBRATING VICTORY

    ‘‘Huuu!” Noises crackled in the house of Jordan as the members heaved out their tiredness, sampled in the aura of victory, and rested their weapons on the tables as they took their seats. It was almost 4 in the morning, but the night echoed with sounds for the next few hours. Their faces were smeared with soot and sweat from the tough battle they had fought and, by God’s grace, won.“This calls for a big celebration!” Jordan spoke, pulling Ana beside him as he rested on his signature seat of authority. “Mariela? Could you make us something delicious for us?”Mariela nodded in agreement. “After emerging triumphant, you all deserve a special treat. I had made arrangements before we left. I will be back in a sec.”They all made sweet sounds of appreciation that sent Mariela off to the kitchen with a smile on her face.Soon enough, she was making hasty back-and-forth tours to and from the kitchen with trays of mouthwatering shawarmas. Then the drinks followed, and everyone wanted nothing

    THE SENSE OF VICTORY

    As Jordan and his group crouched in the shadows, staring at the far-off warehouse where the covert conflict had taken place, the night sky hung thick with an oppressive still. An overwhelming feeling of unease permeated the air as they anticipated reaching the pinnacle of their unwavering quest for justice.Abruptly, a menacing gleam illuminated the horizon, illuminating Jordan's team members' features with elongated shadows. From the warehouse, flames shot up, licking the darkness with an abysmal embrace. The blast echoed through the still air like a mighty cry of vengeance.Jordan clinched his hands and tensed his jaw, watching the conflagration with a bleak determination mixed with joy. The warehouse collapsed under the weight of its own secrets; it had previously been a center of corruption and dishonesty. His transgressors were being burned into charred souls. He could imagine them weeping in pain as the wildfire mercilessly devoured them.Jordan whispered, "That's it," his voice
