Irene stayed put, completely unfazed by Mason. Skyler's heart was in her mouth as she watched Mason form a fist with his hands, throwing a punch.With one gentle movement, she stepped away from the trajectory of the blow, causing him to miss completely. Then she grabbed his arm and yanked him forward using his own momentum against him. With skilful precision she flipped Mason and he landed painfully on his back. “Be thankful that I did not choose to dislocate your arm,” she whispered to him. Now his other friends who were struggling with Raul were stunned. How could a woman like this bring a muscular guy like Mason to the floor within seconds? Killian stepped out. “So you want to fight with men huh?”The two other boys began cheering him up. “Well bring it on, I'll show you what it means to fight with a man today.”Irene leaped forward, her knees crashing against his chest. He didn't even know what happened until he found himself on the ground. “Does anyone else wish to embarrass
Ethan got on his feet to see what Keith was showing him. “It's a message from Trevor, he says he tried to reach me but my number was unreachable and that I should call him immediately or else,” the lieutenant explained. “Who is Trevor?” Ethan asked, slightly confused. “You didn't meet him when you were captured in the camp?” “Maybe I did, but I don't know his name.”“Trevor is Cyrus's right hand, his most trusted man.”“I suggest that you call them, they don't need to suspect a thing,” Ethan said.The two of them would be leaving the hotel in about an hour to go catch their flight using the fake documents that Natasha had provided. Keith dialed the number and put the phone on speaker while he tried to contact Trevor. The phone didn't ring too much before the call was accepted. “Lieutenant Keith, why have you been unreachable for the past 6 hours?” Trevor sounded extremely pissed. “I'm sorry, after launching the missile they heightened security at the base and everybody was being
Irene and Esme shared a look. “What was that?” Esme asked, concerned.“Skyler,” Irene breathed and jumped on her feet. “What? How are you so sure it's - hey where are you going?!”She didn't wait to explain anything to Esme before running out. Within seconds she had dashed to the end of the hallway. The door to Skyler's room was ajar and she entered the room panting. “Woah, calm down what's going on with you?” Sam said. Irene's eyes darted around the room and she found Skyler looking slightly frightened by the corner with Mason standing close to her. “Hey, what are you doing to her?” she mediately got on the defensive without even hearing out any explanation. “Irene it's okay, he just scared me with a snake.”“A snake? Why would you bring a snake here and why are you even here at this time?”“Would you just take a chill pill, I'm the one that asked him to bring the snake, it's my pet,” Samantha explained. “A pet in the dorms? And a snake for that matter? That's breaking like 100
After hours of flying, they finally landed at the international airport in the capital city of Ivar. The warm summer breeze crashed against their face as they made their way out of the airport. They made sure that their scarves covered their faces, however in the final checkpoint before they could leave an immigration officer suddenly stopped them. “Hey, you too, remove the scarves.”Keith and Ethan exchanged a glance. Ethan was so widespread and popularly known as the legion commander. There was no way that security personnel's of their enemies wouldn't have a good idea of what he looked like. Keith started coughing. “Bad cough,” he croaked, nearing the immigration officer. Just as he was about to take off his scarf, the man gestured for him to stop. “Okay that's enough, don't infect me with whatever disease you're carrying from Davenport.” With that the two men were dismissed and they left the airport. “So, do you know where their address is?” “Yes I do.”“Great, stop a taxi t
Renée was a bit preoccupied and lost in thought. She turned on the bed but couldn't seem to find the right position that would allow her sleep. The text was keeping her up. She paced around in her room restlessly. Driven by thirst, she eventually made her way out towards the kitchen. She turned on the lights and then went to the fridge and opened it to bring out the job of cold water. She was pouring herself a glass when Elizabeth walked in. “Can't seem to get some sleep?” Elizabeth's voice startled her, causing her to spill a bit of water on the kitchen island.Seeing this, Elizabeth quickly grabbed a napkin. “Sorry if I scared you,” she said.“Oh no, it's okay.” Renée tried to collect the napkin to clean up the mess herself but Elizabeth didn't let her. “It's fine I got this. What seems to be keeping you up at this time?”She grabbed the cup and drank some water. “I'm just thinking about something. It's nothing.”Elizabeth smiled, so tell me what is it? Is it something? Or nothi
The car came to a stop in a busy area and Keith and Ethan came down along with Frank. Ethan's face was still concealed by the scarf more so now that they were outside and you had to do it more carefully. Frank led the way and the other two men followed behind. The area was rowdy and looked like a poor side of town. It was smelly and noisy. Ethan couldn't help but feel like so many eyes were fixated on him, probably because of the way he dressed. It made him stand out in the crowd. Trying to avoid eye contact they meet their way in following Frank who was walking fast. Ethan bumped into somebody and their eyes met. The man had a cigar in his mouth and frowned at Ethan. “Sorry,” he mumbled and looked away. They came to a stop in front of a store. “My old buddy owns this place, just act natural and I'll take us to the back,” Frank said. As they entered inside, Frank shook hands with somebody by the counter. They had a little hushed conversation before Frank turned to Keith and Etha
Trevor was standing by the balcony with a lit cigarette in between his lips. He was overlooking the sea as the breeze crashed against his face. One of the henchmen walked up behind him. “Sir they're back with all the materials and the surgery can begin.”He dropped his cigarette on the floor and quenched it by stepping on it. They made their way in and headed straight to the room where they had locked up Darren. “Get up magic doctor, everything you need is here, it's time for your surgery.”Darren had been locked in here for days and he was scared of what they would do to him. Most of the things he requested were not exactly necessary but were things he could use as weapons to help him escape. “What are you waiting for?! Get up!” The brashness in Trevor's voice made daring to jerk upright. As they made their way towards the room, he leaned forward to give the doctor a warning. “Don't even think of trying anything funny because I won't hesitate to blow your brains out in an instant.
Trevor barged into the room. “What the hell is going on here!” He barked loudly.Darren paid him little attention as he was trying to stabilize Cyrus's vitals. “I asked you a question, didn't I?!”The doctor gritted his teeth and was fed up. He spun around and faced Trevor. “If you don't stand there and keep quiet and let me work then Cyrus is going to die so make your choice.”Although reluctant, there was nothing he could do but listen to the doctor. Darren kept trying until finally Cyrus's heart rate stabilized. Trevor watched anxiously from the corner rubbing his face with his palms.His distrust for the doctors sprang up and he couldn't help but ask. “What are you doing, doctor , why is it taking you so long?”“If you stand there and continue to breathe down my neck and anything happens to Cyrus it will be your fault.”His nostrils flared as he exhaled sharply, given the doctor a dangerous glare. He slowly backed away from the room and went back outside where the other henchman
