The Legion Commander Strikes Back • Watch Your Back
The launch date for the beacon was coming closer and closer. Ethan had employed and mobilized people to help in the social media promotion of the event. He wanted it to be loud and it was indeed working as everyone within and outside the country knew about the forthcoming event.Apart from promoting it online, he was also preparing his grand present to Valerie who still had no idea that Ethan was planning to give her a space in the beacon.They were both in the kitchen. Valerie was making breakfast for Ethan, she was going to leave soon as she had to meet with her parents by midday.Ethan sat on the kitchen cabinet watching her cook. He decided to ask her about her company just to be sure she had not made any move yet."How is it with your search for your new space?" He asked.Valerie washed an apple and handed it over to him."What new space?" "For your company." He stated, and took a big bite off the apple."Oh that. I haven't been able to do much yet. I have been caught up with th
The Legion Commander Strikes Back • Soldiers At The Border
Skyler saw Valerie's eyes widen in fear. She immediately stood up."Is there something wrong?" She asked."Um...no, no. I'm fine." Valerie responded, panting."Are you sure?" Skyler probed, staring strangely at Valerie."Yes, I am. I just recalled a bad memory. It's nothing really." Valerie said again."Okay. You do not look okay, but since you insist you are, I can't do anything." Skyler said with a shrug."Well, I think we should leave." Valerie started."Huh? Why? Is there something wrong? If there is, go ahead and speak now. We can call Ethan or something." Skyler stated."Like you rightly said, this place is toxic. I can't stay any longer. It's exhausting." Valerie replied, picking up her purse."I am glad you noticed it now, but why are we so much hurry?" Skyler asked, picking up her purse too.Valerie walked out of the house without telling her family members that she was leaving. Skyler on her own part didn't care."You're doing the driving." Valerie stated throwing the key to
The Legion Commander Strikes Back • Take Cover!!!
Ethan and Jax glanced at each other. Ethan immediately picked up the radio phone they all used to communicate."Everybody stop." He ordered.All the cars halted. It seemed all the intercoms had alerted them about the bombs. Jax looked at Ethan again. "Do you know if the bombs are attached to the car or around the car?" He questioned."I have no idea. But what I do know is that we are in a danger zone." Ethan responded, his eyes darting around to see if he could notice anything. After waiting for about five minutes, Jax heaved a sigh of relief."I think we are good now." He stated, starting the car again. All the other cars in front did the same thing. Just then, Ethan's sharp eyes caught sight of something. He couldn't make any sense of what it was, but he knew whatever it was, wasn't there to help them but to destroy."Fuck! Don't move!" He yelled into the radio phone.Jax turned to him a little confused. He was about to ask Ethan why he had said that when all of a sudden, they h
The Legion Commander Strikes Back • Ethan Goes Missing
Elizabeth clutched to the bed, throwing her head to different directions. Her clothes and body were soaked with sweat."No no no. Please no. Not again. Somebody help my son please." She cried out loudly, still struggling on the bed.Skyler rushed into the bedroom, she immediately jumped on the bed and tried to wake her mother up."Mother! Mother!" She called shaking her.Few moments later, Valerie joined her."What is wrong with her? I heard her shouting from my bedroom." Valerie said."I don't know, I think she is having a nightmare. I am trying to make her wake up but she isn't responding." Skyler responded in a worried tone."Try again. It...it...it..can't be that bad." Valerie stuttered in confusion."Mother, please wake up." Skyler said, tapping her mother's shoulders, but still there was no response."Hold on, let me try." Valerie said. She climbed on the bed and pulled Elizabeth up into a hug, gently shaking her in the process.Elizabeth gasped for air twice and hugged Valerie
The Legion Commander Strikes Back • Where Is The Legion Commander?
Skyler left Valerie's bedroom on seeing how the atmosphere was. She was also extremely worried about Ethan, but she tried to act strong for her mother. Valerie on the other hand was not helping matters. She was crying along with Elizabeth. All these were reasons why Skyler left the room.Lieutenant Lucy joined her in the living room a few minutes later."Will my brother be found please?" Skyler asked, but Lucy sighed."Honestly, I can't promise anything for now, but I assure you we are trying our best." She affirmed."Assuring me isn't enough, I need to be sure my brother would be found and brought back home...alive." Skyler said. The possibility of Ethan being dead flashed in her mind but she immediately shrugged it off."He is going to be fine. Lieutenant Keith is making some calls. Help will be sent to the point where we lost contact with them." Lucy stated. Skyler gasped in desperation."Will? Are you for real? You still stand here saying will? Help is supposed to be there by now.
The Legion Commander Strikes Back • Taking Action
The big door to the back of the truck was slammed shut and everywhere became dark. Two minutes after it was shut, it became incredibly hot and stuffy. Ethan then realized that was the reason none of the strange men joined them there.Soon, the truck was started, the smell of smoke filled the place and everyone began to cough, making the situation worst than how it was earlier. Ethan knew he had to do something at this point, he was the legion commander. If he didn't take action, then no one else would."Everyone, stay calm." He announced, trying to get their attention.The truck slowly began to move, making a loud grinding noise.Ethan began to struggle with the ropes in his hands, the knot was very tight to the extent that blood and oxygen were barely flowing properly through his hands.He managed to move a little more closer to Jax who was sitting a few centimeters away from him."Try undoing the zip on my thigh pocket." He said. Ethan had kept some valuable and to-go items in his t
The Legion Commander Strikes Back • The Only One Left Standing
All the soldiers stood up. They then realized the truck had stopped moving which means they had gotten to their destination or they stopped for a food break.Whoever it was unlocking the door was taking so much time as everyone were just waiting for him.Ethan hinted at the soldiers to spread out and stand by the side of the truck so the person unlocking the door would not notice their presence at first glance. "The dreadland legionnaires from Armoria, I hope you..." The man said as he opened the door, but he paused when he didn't see anyone.He spoke a strange language before saying something else in English. "Where the hell did they go?" He muttered. He called out to the other men with a strange language, telling them the soldiers were no longer there, then he began to search his cross bag for a torchlight.Ethan took that as an opportunity. He pounced on the man, pushing him to the floor. All the soldiers rushed out of the truck and began to run.The man had not been expecting an
The Legion Commander Strikes Back • Things Get Tense
Elizabeth and Valerie had been unable to eat or even sleep since the previous day. The whole of Newcrest City had a gloomy look as they feared that they had lost their legion commander.Skyler walked around the kitchen trying to prepare a meal for Elizabeth and Valerie to eat. Both of them had finally fallen into a restless sleep after staying awake throughout the whole night.Skyler was almost done cooking when Elizabeth walked into the kitchen, startling her. She gasped with her hands on her chest."Mother, you frightened me. You are supposed to be sleeping." She stated."How can I sleep peacefully when my son is out there calling for me?" Elizabeth asked."Mother, relax. We all are worried about Ethan. Try to get some sleep please." Skyler begged, her eyes became teary again and her lashes wet as she tried to blink back the tears."He could be somewhere in the enemies den. If they wanted a ransom, why can't they just call us and make their request? If they would take me in exchange
