Carl Gerald immediately had something one could call a vision.

His eyes were blurry as he stared at the man before him, Lieutenant Alex. A man feared in the battlefield.

History had it that General Carl Gerald and Lieutenant Alex had organised one of the biggest secret green ops operations that shattered the drug cartels and their influence in that region.

Carl Gerald slowly took a deep breath as his memories continued to return slowly.

“General Carl Gerald, long time, no see!”

“You decided to go into hiding and left us here.”

Lieutenant Alex said as he wheeled himself towards the direction of Carl Gerald.

They were still in the mini hanger where the War Copter had just landed.

Tom was busy getting scolded by his superiors on the stupid landing he had just pulled off with the world's most feared mad valuable man inside.

Carl Gerald shook his head and blinked his eyes and suddenly he remembered lieutenant Alex, his war buddy.

“Lieutenant Alex…it's been quite a long time since we…”

    Debra Zach asked as she couldn’t understand the words Carl Gerald had spoken.It seemed he’d gotten too excited after getting to the military base, his demeanor changed even.Carl Gerald on the other hand, couldn’t explain the feeling he’d just received in words. It was a sort of revelation, in small bursts of ‘whispers’. And he decided to trust it.“Do you understand the gravity of your words, General?” Debra Zach remained skeptical.“I understand that you’re excited to be back to your home base, maybe it rekindles your memories, but you shouldn’t say such!”“Do you even understand what saying that even means? I'm not bothered about you…I'm bothered about raising Lieutenant Alex's hope and only for us to dash it to the ground.”“We have tried many processes, herbs and everything and it didn't work…”“I would prefer we let him be…actually he is beginning to love himself that way.”Debra Zachs said as she took a deep breath and waved her hands over her head.Carl Gerald saw what she me

    The base was a treasure trove of memories to Carl Gerald. It held things that sometimes drew a sense of familiarity, and others that allowed for fragments of memories.Some of the things he had were gifts from world class Presidents, they had all been pledging their allegiance to him even though most of them hadn't seen him before.This drawer was one of those things at the moment.‘What’s this?’ Carl Gerald began to feel around the odd white drawer. To a passerby, it looked like any other drawer, but not to Carl Gerald. He knew that there was something special inside. He continued to pry it open for a while once he noticed it was locked. Carl didn’t get very far when he decided to give up. The drawer just wouldn’t budge.In a fit of desperation, he tapped at the corners. As he tapped at the bottom left, the drawer opened with a soft snap.“Oh…” In it was a bunch of keys. Nothing special.It seemed to be the keys to all the other locked drawers.

He grabbed the sides of his wheelchair even firmer, ready to roll away at an opportunity.“General Carl…” Debra Zach’s face twisted into disdain. It was clear she didn’t like what was happening.

Carl opened his phone, quickly searching for his sister’s contact and dialing it.It rang timelessly without any one answering the call.Carl Gerald tried many more times, No answer.“Sara… Sara let this be a joke, it has to be!” Carl Gerald screamed in pain at the phone which still rang without reply.

As they left the room, the figure left its place as well.Unbeknownst to Carl Gerald, he left the gold key out in the open, on top of the counter by the bed.The figure had been searching for the key for a long time, and the person who’d protected it with his life seemingly left it out like it was of no use.“Fools will be fools.” The figure chuckled softly. Upon arriving at the room, it opened the door and walked to the counter, grabbing the key. It peered at the key for a while, occasionally letting off small laughter that lacked sanity, “May the Black Holocaust never end!”With that, the figure left the Military base, undetected, almost like a shadow without form.After a short while, Lieutenant Alex entered the room. He felt like something was missing, but he couldn’t put a finger on it. He scanned the room but soon let it off as nothing more than a feeling.“Something's quite not

    “So let me get this straight…again.” Carl Gerald said impatiently, as though he was running out of time—which he was, due to his sister.Across the place they were standing was a couch with a velvet red color and plaid patterns.Carl Gerald walked toward it and sat down on it, crossing his left leg, “Your son has daddy issues?”The mention of the phrase ‘daddy issues’ caused Mister Lex’s moustache to twitch. A hint of surprise flashed across his face, but it was quickly changed to a flustered look.“I-If putting it that way is more comfortable… then I suppose my son has ‘daddy issues’ with me.” Mister Lex let out an embarrassed cough.“I know he has tabs on your sister, but I need you to capture him and bring him in for a talk.” Mister Lex completely brushed aside the feeling of embarrassment from the earlier statement.“Yeah, tell me about it.” Carl Gerald rolled his eyes. To him, the behavior of Mister Lex was hypocritical. “You knew all this while yet you still let it slide. He ki

He was smirking.The Landlord, didn’t seem to mind.

    As Debra drove through the charted route from Juliet Marcus, she felt her phone vibrate in her pocket, and a familiar chime whizzed through the air.Debra Zachs had set a specific notification ringtone for whenever Carl Gerald texted her.As she grabbed her phone, she searched through the content of his message.‘Victor Tyler’s number? Why would he need that?’ Debra became confused as she read the contents of Carl Gerald’s message. Carl Gerald had stated that it was urgent.“Hah…” Debra Zach sighed, swerving over to the side of the street. She quickly searched her contact list, and it wasn’t until a few minutes later that she found Victor Tyler’s contact.“I really need to reduce the number of people on this phone.” Debra Zach grumbled, sending the contact to Carl Gerald almost immediately.Debra Zachs slipped her phone back into her pocket and began to drive the car back to the road.“Debra, why did you stop?” Mrs Juliet Marcus's voice sounded through the car’s sound system as soon a

    “Now tell me, Carl Gerald.” Clyde Lex’s voice sounded unhinged. “Does the hunt for Sara bring you to the book aisle?”Clyde Lex asked the same question, this time his voice was detached.Carl Gerald felt his anger renew as he realized he was almost played by Clyde Lex. Carl Gerald grabbed him by the collar and pushed him violently against a shelf, nearly toppling a few books over.“What do you know about Sara’s disappearance, Lex?” Carl Gerald asked menacingly.“Ah, scary!” Clyde Lex’s face had stopped showing any emotions, but his voice was as though he had fear plastered on his face.Clyde Lex wasn’t capable of feeling emotions, he just considered people around him as tools, only to be tossed away when they were no longer of use.It even made Clyde Lex a perfect manipulator, and Carl Gerald had almost fallen for it.“If I were you,” Clyde Lex began, “I wouldn’t be standing here, talking to me.”Clyde Lex grabbed a book from the bookshelf he was pinned against. “I heard that she love

    Another day had passed, Sara Gerald was still yet to be found, and Carl Gerald was more than frustrated. It was now three days gone.Each day, Sara Gerald was moved around, and to a very far location that it really made Carl Gerald wonder how the kidnappers were moving so far just overnight.Currently, Lieutenant Alex’s team had dispersed from Carl Gerald and Debra Zach’s car immediately after Juliet Marcus’s confirmation. Now everyone was scouring for a shorter route.And again, another factor put the car on halt. A glaring beep showed that the car had been pushed to its limit and the fuel gauge was just above zero.Carl Gerald resisted grumbling in frustration. It was as though the universe was against him.“Shit, not now…” Debra Zach muttered in frustration as well, it was normal, considering that she had been driving nonstop since the afternoon of the previous day.After three gruelling days of searching, they had come up with nothing but clues. “General, I’ll be stopping at the

    The drive was long and full of anticipation; it was a really long distance that would take the whole of the day.Throughout the whole time, Carl Gerald and Debra Zach, as well as Lieutenant Alex’s team had been planning on how to cautiously approach the place.As dusk approached and darkness crept over the whole operation, a devastating message came from Juliet Marcus.“Testing, Testing. If you can hear me, say crab.”Mrs Juliet Marcus's voice rang through the car’s speakers.“Crab.” Carl Gerald said immediately.“Oh, good! Well… General, there’s bad news, terrible even.” Juliet Marcus said.“What do you mean?” Car Gerald asked.For a reason, he felt like it was about his sister. He clenched his fists tightly as he waited for the news.“General, the signal is moving. Miss Sara is being carried away from her previous position.” Mrs Juliet Marcus reported, much to the dismay of Carl Gerald.‘Just what is their problem?!’ Carl Gerald couldn’t understand why the kidnappers kept on moving h
