The D-day has finally arrived. The day we take down Excalibur for good. The nervousness I had suppressed the whole of yesterday came flooding back.
The events of yesterday was so exhilarating that I had almost forgotten the nervousness of today's mission.
After picking out our weapons yesterday, Harry and I left to the warehouse. He took me to an abandoned park. He said most of the men in la rinascita came there to practice and train.
We practised using empty cans and bottles as targets. It took me four hours of training to be able to hit a target without missing. The first three hours was a complete mess, but I later got the hang of it. I still missed some though but Harry said with more practice I would be better.
I was full of energy when he praised me, I felt like I could do this but now I don't feel so good. I don't think I'll be able to shoot another human like myself.

"the four men just opened fire " Blake answered.As strange as this might sound, it's like they knew we were coming. [it looks like our cover has been blown. No more playing nice if we're going to get out of here in one piece. We're going to get our target of it means tearing the while building down. ] Nico said.

After securing death in one if our warehouses, the gang went on an extermination spree. They set all of Excalibur's warehouses on fire, one after the other. But they made sure to shed as little blood as possible.They eliminated the ones who were resistant and spared the ones who weren't by giving them a place in la rinascita. The night sky was filled with smoke from the flames of the burning buildings across the city. A symbol of Excalibur's extinction. There was no way they were going to recover from the amount of damage. Even if some of the men were to form a revolution and avenge their gang, it would be pointless and only lead to them losing their lives.I got home very exhausted, both physically, emotionally and mentally. It had broken my heart when I saw some of Excalibur's men being gunned down because they resisted. I vomited three times due to the gory sight.I know I'd seen thi

I hadn't realized that I said it out loud until I felt the gaze of Jeff and Blake."what did you say? " Blake asked"I said what if it was another group who found out about the plan but gave the info to Excalibur?""why would you think that? ""I don't know...maybe because it's so surreal that Excalibur would have another spy " "that would make more sense. " Nico entered with Harry, Mike and some other guys. I didn't know they were by the door listening. "Excalibur couldn't have had more than one spy or it would have been too suspicious " he continued, the others thought it through."but which group could have been able to plant a spy so secretly " Jeff asked.After a few minutes of silence as everyone was probably trying to figure out which group it could be, Nico finally spoke up.

We were in an open range danger.After the interrogation, Nico ordered a round table meeting with the crème de la crème of the gang. Oddly, I was also invited to the round table meeting."what if this dork doing here?

The entire week was spent on series of investigations. The guys spent nights at the warehouse while I was left to continue with operations at the other warehouse.I had wanted in on the fun as well but working at the warehouse would also be as much fun since I would be doing my own private investigation here.Over the span of the week, two of our other warehouses have been attacked and this had led us to believe that the mole already knew our plan and knew that we were probably getting closer to catching him.I was to make an early morning delivery to one of our clients tomorrow, so I decided to spend the night at the warehouse to oversee the packaging. It was better than going home anyways, since I would be all alone.The guys barely stayed home these days as they are busy with catching the mole and dealing with the recent attacks."hey " I looked up and saw Jao coming towa

I looked up and froze. I froze because they were staring at me like I grew horns overnight."w-what? " I asked"you're smiling " Conny pointed out. I let down my head in embarrassment. I shouldn't be but I was, they just caught me smiling like an idiot.When I looked up, they were all smiling, and like idiots too, but why were they smiling?"why are you guys smiling? ""because you're smiling " Mike said. His smile was getting larger. Ugh! these guys, I rolled my eyes."come on, let's eat before the food gets cold " Julian called"yeah yeah " everyone went to the dinning table.The food was so tasty that it almost made me cry, almost.

Time to grow Kelvin
A few hours had passed and we were still at the base. It was too good to be true that we had caught the mole, after weeks of endless search without any trace of evidence. The relief I felt in the van vanished when I saw who the mole was. KelvinI may not be close with Kelvin but we'd had a few conversations together and he seemed like a cool person. Plus, he was a huge fan of Nico, he always looked up the man like a role model, so why would he betray someone he claims to look up to. After we had confirmed the identity of our mole, Nico had showed us the clues that led to his exposure for us to study closely. They were all pretty plain and looked staged, but why hadn't we been able to find them all these weeks we've been searching.Kelvin was currently being interrogated in the torture room. I couldn't bear to stand and watch so that's why I left to go outside and get some air.<
