‘Sara sleeps so easily.’ Carl Gerald remained dumbfounded at how quickly she slept.

The group had just arrived at the Villa. As Carl Gerald gazed around he couldn’t help but gasp how the villa lights beautified the night environment.

“General, please get a good nights’ rest.” Debra commented. “That troublemaker will be here to help you with security during the nighttime.”

“I can hear you!” Juliet scoffed, hugging the dashboard of the car. Debra Zach had a very good way with words both positively, and negatively. Juliet, unfortunately became a victim that very night.

‘I’m glad she’s not my enemy.’ Carl Gerald sucked in a cold breath.

“I’ll be taking my leave then, if you have a response, please do well to reach out to me before 11am prompt.” Debra Zach remained formal.

“I will. Thank you for today, Miss Debra, and Miss Juliet. I really appreciate it.”

Upon that statement, both their eyes widened. Even the mentally wounded Juliet couldn’t help but muster a surprised expression.

Together, they drove far away from the Metropolis Carl Gerald resided in. The drive was silent, Debra changed the radio station a few times, from news, to music, to podcasts, she was clearly trying to remove the awkward silence.She continued to do so until a piece of news caught Carl Gerald’s ears.“There is speculation of the General’s return in the Pentagon's—” Debra Zach changed it quickly.“Wait, Miss Debra! Switch it back for a minute, please.” Carl Gerald became curious.“I’m not sure how the news got leaked, but I assure you it’s nothing you’d like to hear.” She positioned her right hand above the ra

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…”“Wha

    “No problem General Carl!” Debra Zachs said as she immediately moved out to get everything in place.Moments later Carl Gerald is walking into the meeting room, Debra Zachs was behind him, as soon as everyone saw him, they all stood up.“Good day General!” They all chorused as they sat down.Only Lieutenant Alex was kind of indifferent, he was somehow still angry at Carl Gerald for disappearing and leaving them without any instructions and any information.In his defence, he believes that the Sea Wolves Elite Divisions wouldn't have been attacked if General Carl hadn't disappeared all of a sudden.The meeting room was a big hall with anti-ballistic glasses and doors, they were all Military Grade standard.The walls were titanium plated and high concrete reinforced. They had to make all this adjustments after the last attack on the base which destroyed almost everything on the military base.“I know some of you are angry to see me…I mean most of you…”“But I assure you, I will make all

    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. Another thing caught his eye in the dr

    Lieutenant Alex remained hopeful as he tried to move his legs, focusing intently. His look of hope faded into one of sadness, then a soft smile.“It’s no good… what did I expect…” Lieutenant Alex’s eyes watered for a bit, but quickly went back to normal. “Thanks anyways, it did return a little feeling.” He thanked Carl Gerald almost immediately.As Lieutenant Alex grabbed the sides of his wheelchair in an attempt to leave, Carl Gerald stopped him.“Wait for a bit,” He grabbed his wheelchair firmly. “Don’t give up hope yet.”Carl Gerald knelt down on his left knee, in his right hand was a bandage roll.“G-general?!” Lieutenant Alex was surprised as his superior knelt before him. 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. A man of great foundations kneeling to a subordinate.“Both of you calm down,” Carl Gerald grabbed the foot of Lieut

That's your name right?”Sam Gabriel asked almost immediately, his eyes were still on the paper, and he had two pencils fitted by his two ears as he spoke.It was as if he was staring at Alfred Maxwell through the upper lenses of his glasses.Alfred Maxwell slowly stared at him before replying immediately, “Yes…that's my name.”His voice had a little tiny feeling of unease, the kind of feeling you get when you undergo a process that you haven't gone through before.“This is a very great description, and I really admire your retentive memory, but…”“Is there anything else you do remember from the perso

Taking a deep breath, he stared into the faces of the other military personnel, he immediately began, “I'm not saying outrightly that Victor Tyler is the one who had allowed the goons access into the Mansion that he gifted us, I'm only trying to put together a perfect picture…a perfect descrip
