2024-04-16 07:09:00The next morning, Chris received a text message from James. He got out of bed and went to carry out his chores and made breakfast before he left the house while driving his old electric scooter.
His destination was the same restaurant he had gone to meet James the previous day. Upon his arrival, he found James seated at the same table but this time around he wasn't alone.
Seated next to James was a young man who looked to be in his mid twenties.
“You're late.” James queried as Chris sat right in front of him.
“Unlike someone who always has everything prepared for him every morning, I on the other hand had chores that must be attended to.” Chris retorted with a sarcastic smile.
“I never knew your life had become so miserable. Who would have imagined that a warlord like yourself would become a houseboy?” James remarked and sipped the coffee in front of him.
“Tell me about it.” Chris said nonchalantly and pointed at the young man sitting next to James. “Who is he?”
“This is Ethan. He was one of our most talented newly recruited members and he is going to be your escort from now on.” James responded curtly
“Since when do I need a babysitter?”
“Please, at this point you might've become more proficient in using a broomstick than firing a gun.” James said jokingly, teasing Chris.
“You will be surprised to see what damage I can do when welding a kitchen knife.” Chris retorted.
“Anyways I heard that you have come into an agreement with your family so I thought you might need someone to help run errands that you don't want to get involved in.” He said and stood up from his seat. “I'll take my leave now. I'm sure you boys will get along.”
Chris eyebrows widened in surprise “Is that it? I thought you texted me to come because you had something important to talk about.”
James smiled at the words Chris uttered. “I need to return to the border to oversee the situation so I just wanted to see you before leaving.” He explained before walking out of the restaurant.

After his meeting with James, Chris dismissed Ethan first before heading straight to Pegasus Enterprise.
He rode on his scooter for thirty minutes.
Soon he arrived at the high rising building Pegasus Enterprise which was located in the central business district of Brooklyn. It was the most imposing and intimidating structure standing amidst the other building in the area.
Suddenly, the atmosphere was engulfed by the sound of a roaring engine. Chris turned to look at the directions and saw an sleek and expensive sports car approaching him. It was an Audi R8 sports car!
The car stopped a few feets away from Chris and the driver stuck his head out of the vehicle and shouted at him “Hey you, Get your piece of junk from that spot. I want to park my car in that space.”
Chris was taken by surprise by the demand of the car driver. The driver was a middle aged man, dressed in an expensive, new suit and it was very obvious that he was arrogant due to his wealthy status.
It was a hassle to get involved with such people so he just turned around and continued walking away from the scene.
Obviously, the car driver was stunned by how Chris had completely ignored him. He felt insulted to be treated in such a humiliating manner by someone of lower caliber than him.
As a result, he stepped out of his vehicle and briskly marched towards Chris. “You….Are you deaf? How dare you walk away when I'm talking to you, piece of trash! I told you to move that junk away from that spot.”
Chris silently groaned as he realized that it wasn't going to be easy to deal with as he presumed. “Why should I listen to you? As far as I'm concerned that parking spot doesn't have your name. I was the one who parked on the spot first so you should go look for somewhere else to park your car.”
“You damn bastard. Do you even realize who you are even talking to right now? I have the power to have you thrown out of this compound.” the car driver boasted.
Chris became intrigued by the words of the arrogant young lad standing in front of him. He began to wonder what was the position of the car driver but he knew that he wasn't just an ordinary low level employee.
“I'm giving you one last chance now to get that scooter out of my way or else don't blame me for what I'm going to do next..” the car driver said with a smug expression in his face
“No, I won't remove my scooter from that space so do you our worst!” Chris replied, his lip curling to form a daring smile.
The young man became enraged. He turned around and walked back to where the Scooter was parked. Under Chris' watchful gaze, he used his leg to push the scooter to the ground with a heavy voice, repeatedly stepping and kicking the scooter.
The smile on Chris' face instantly vanished after seeing what happened to his scooter.
“I warned you not to mess with me.” The car driver said to Chris with a disdainful regard on face. “Now, come and take this trash away from this place.”
In rage, Chris walked closer to the young man and slapped him across the face.
The young man fell to the ground, blood gushing out of his nose and his mouth swollen.
“You f**cking bastard! Just you wait. My father is the general manager of this company. I'm going to make you regret this!” The car driver swore and dialed a number on his phone
Meanwhile, the commotion had already drawn the attention of a security guard that was stationed at the parking lot. The group of the security guards stationed at the parking lot soon arrived at the scene.

As soon as he saw the bleeding car driver he recognized him as the son of Pegasus Enterprise general manager, Mark Collins “Sir Mark, are you alright?” in a concerned tone the guards hurriedly rushed to help Mark get back to his feet. “Where the hell have you idiot been?” Mark groaned while covering his bleeding nose. Being scolded by Mark made The security guard frown. He fixed his furious gaze at Chris, seeing how poorly dressed he was in cheap outfits gave the security officer the free pass to look down on him and shouted, “What do you think you’re doing? How dare you cause a ruckus on Pegasus Enterprise ground?! Apologize to sir, Mark right this instant?” “Shouldn't you be asking me

The security guards were taken aback by Elliot’s action and wondered if he had gone senile. Although they hadn't met the chairman yet but they believed he couldn't be Chris who was dressed as a poor beggar.“Mr. Brown, I think you're mistaken. This person isn't the chairman. He's just a hoodlum causing trouble in our company and we were just about to chase him out.” The head of security tried to explain.A frown immediately appeared on Elliot’s face. He raised back up and kicked the head of the security guards on his knees. “Fool! How dare you call the Chairman a hoodlum. Do you wish to die! Is this how you morons have been running this company all along?” He yelled.All the security officers instantly froze in shock as if a bucket of cold water had just been dropped on them. Was this person truly the chairman? The same person whom they were about to beat up.It was a situation that was hard to believe but seeing Elliot’s reaction they all couldn't help but believe that he was speaking

Initially, they had assumed that the company now belonged to the Brown family since they were sending a member of their family to manage the operation of the company. However, it turns out that wasn't the case and it made them even began to wonder about Chris identity.“Mr. Brown, you are mistaken. This is person surely can't be the chairman.” Anthony said with a scoff and continued speaking. “He is just a lowly scum that trespassed into our compound and dated to assault our employees. I'll ……”Anthony was unable to complete his sentence before he was slapped across the face by Elliot..“You are such a dumb imbecile! Like father like son. We don't need fools like you work in this company. If there's any thrash that needs to be thrown out it's both you and your son!” Elliot shouted and turned to look at security officers. “Get rid of them and make sure that they don't ever step foot into this company again.” He declared without mercy.Anthony felt like a bucket of cold water was dropped

Elliot swallowed the saliva in his mouth. The longer the conversation becomes the more Chris seems more scary. It had only been a day but it was easy for him to gather enough background information about him. Chris took his cellphone and placed it on the desk. “Have a look at it!” Hesitantly, Elliot moved closer to the desk to pick up the phone. Another bombshell was dropped on him as soon as he read the contents on the phone. “Sir, this…..this is.” “Yes, they are a series of evidence of the recent embezzlement that some of your older cousins have committed in the past few years. I'm sure that you also have a bigger dream and it would be easy to bring down many of your competitors with that evidence in your hand.” “However, it's not for free. I know they must have given you a private mission to keep a close watch on me. It is not possible to keep a mole next to me so I am going to give you a chance to choose who you wish to serve from this moment onward.” Elliot was flustered a

The Carters owned several fancy, modern homes in some of Brooklyn’s exquisite areas and several members of the family had occupied these homes. Unlike these people, Eva and her parents lived in much older buildings and farther away. As a result, it always took Eva a longer period of time to commute to work everyday compared to her other relatives who lived closer to the business district. Seeing that Eva was ignoring him with an aloof expression, Eric was infuriated and became more aggressive.“Tsk…You should just quit if you no longer have any interest in working anymore. Personally, I would prefer that you wouldn't step foot inside this company ever again. Your family has become a terrible stigma to the reputation of our family so it's best we just get rid of you.” “I suggest that it's best if you stay at home taking care of your crippled father and play housewife to that loser. Leave management of the company to the rest of us. Don't worry, you'll keep receiving your annuals d

After leaving Pegasus Enterprise,Chris went around town running some simple errands so he returned back to the Carter residence at night. As soon as he walked into the house, he saw his mother-in-law, Kate seated on the sofa with a bag of chips in her hands while his father-in-law was busy watching the TV. “Where the hell have you been all day? I have been starving and have resorted to munching a bag of chips. Is this how you plan to get rid of me?” Kate challenged Chris in an impatient tone, her expression disgruntled in irritation. “I'm really sorry, mom. I didn't mean to take so long before coming back but I had so many important matters to take care of.” “Save it!” Kate snapped, waving her hand at Chris' face. “I don't wish to hear the silly excuses you have. Besides, what Kind of business could a bum like you possibly have to deal with outside. Are you trying to starve us to death? No wonder everyone calls you a good for nothing when you can even properly take care of a si

As he walked back downstairs, he pulled out his cell phone and dialed Ethan's phone number. “I have a job for you. I need you to find out everything about Carlos and the Red Lounge Club." he said in a firm tone. “Chris I asked you to call down Eva, what's taking her so long to get here?” Lydia yelled as soon as she saw Chris walking down the stairs alone. “Are you so useless that you can't carry out such a simple task?” “I already did call her, mom. She is going to be down in a minute.” Chris replied. “Did you do something wrong to her?...What could possibly be keeping her from coming down instantly?....I won't forgive you if you really did something to her.” Kate continued ranting. “Calm down, Kate. You are being paranoid now.” Bruce remarked finding Kate's loud tantrum very annoying. She was always screaming at the top of her lungs and seizing every opportunity to lash out at Chris. Kate was about to lash out at Bruce as well but she kept her mouth shut as soon as she c

Eva was frustrated but she had no choice but to comply with Carlo’s ridiculous request. Therefore she collected the drink and downed it all in one go. “Are you happy now?” She said in a rhetorical tone. “Very good, miss Carter.” Carlo laughed as he was in a pleasant mood. “When are you going to make the payment for your rent? It's very clear that your business is running smoothly so money won't be a problem” “I don't understand what you are saying Miss Carter because I recalled paying a certain amount of money before acquiring this place and I also have a contract that states that I wouldn't be bothered about any further payment for the next five years.” Eva gulped hard after hearing Carlo's response. Every word that he said was indeed true and this was as a result of Eric's stupidity for signing such a contract in an intoxicated state. “Mr. Carlo, I understand your words but do you think that perhaps we can make some adjustments to the contract. We both know that renting thi

The helicopter’s blades roared above the scorched terrain, kicking up waves of sand as it ascended from the narrow gorge where Chris and his team had taken cover. The extraction had been swift and precise, thanks to Cara’s defiance of Mason’s orders. Chris sat near the cockpit, bloodied but alive, staring at the phone he had taken from the enemy leader during their last desperate clash. His fingers danced across the keypad, composing a message that would set the next phase of their plan into motion.“ All targets eliminated. Confirming Chris and his squad had been neutralized.”He read the text twice before pressing send. The stolen phone vibrated faintly in his hand, sending the message directly to Mason. A bitter smile crept across his face. Mason would never suspect it was him—he would think it was a final report from the enemy forces he had conspired with.“Message sent,” Chris muttered to Ethan, who was securing Roy’s injured arm beside him. “Let’s see how Mason reacts.”Ethan g

In the shadows of the crimson-tinted base, Mason waited. His eyes never strayed from the monitors in front of him, the glow from the screens illuminating his calculating expression. He had spent years cultivating his place in the Legion, building his alliances, playing the part of the dutiful soldier. But beneath the surface, something had festered—a hunger, a thirst for power that had been there all along, waiting for the right moment to break free.Mason had known that James, the leader of the Legion, was vulnerable. After all, the older man had always been so sure of his power, so confident in his ability to hold the reins of the Crimson Legion. But James had a weakness: his attachments. And none more so than his favorite student, Chris.Mason had always hated it. Hated how James doted on Chris, how he saw potential in the young soldier. It was a jealousy that had quietly gnawed at him over the years, and now, it was something he could no longer control.So, Mason played his cards

The team moved with deadly precision, their years of training evident in every step. As they entered the camp, Chris took the lead, his silenced pistol eliminating guards with surgical accuracy.A lone sentry patrolling near a truck never saw Chris coming. In one fluid motion, Chris snapped his neck and signaled for the team to advance.The camp erupted into chaos when their presence was finally discovered. Gunfire lit up the night as Chris led the assault, his movements a blur of lethal efficiency. Each shot he fired found its mark, and his team followed his lead, their confidence bolstered by his unwavering resolve."Ethan, cover the east side!" Chris shouted, reloading his rifle.Ethan moved swiftly, his sharp aim taking down two approaching soldiers. "Got it!"An enemy grenade landed near their position, but Chris reacted instantly, grabbing it and hurling it back toward the enemy. The explosion rocked the camp, sending debris flying and disorienting their attackers.Chris finally

Meanwhile, As Chris waited for extraction, his resolve hardened. The mission wasn’t over, and the fight was far from done.The desert air was tense as the helicopter lifted off from the extraction point, its rotors slicing through the night. Chris sat near the door, his rifle resting on his lap, scanning the horizon for any threats. Ethan, Roy and another surviving operative, sat across from him, their faces grim but relieved. "This confirms it," Chris muttered, his voice low but resolute. "There's a mole in the Crimson Legion."Ethan frowned. "You sure about that, sir?"Chris nodded, his gaze sharp. "They knew we'd come. Every step of this mission was compromised." His voice was low, calculated. "The enemy was too prepared. They knew our every move.Someone's feeding them intel."Before Ethan could respond, the cockpit alarm blared, jolting everyone to alertness and the pilot's panicked shout pierced through their headsets."Missiles incoming! Brace for impact!"The first explosion

Despite their efforts, the enemy continued to press, their numbers relentless. Chris’s mind raced as he evaluated their options.“We’re not going to outrun them,” Ethan said, his tone grim.“Then we outsmart them,” Chris replied.Spotting a narrow canyon ahead, Chris led Ethan toward it, the rocky terrain offering some cover. The enemy jeeps couldn’t follow, forcing their pursuers to dismount and continue on foot.The narrow passage became a deadly battleground as Chris and Ethan used the terrain to their advantage. Chris’s sharp instincts and flawless aim were on full display, each kill executed with surgical precision.Ethan, despite his exhaustion, matched Chris’s intensity. His quick reflexes and steady aim kept the enemy at bay, earning a nod of approval from Chris.“You’ve gotten better,” Chris said, reloading his weapon.“Guess I’ve had a good teacher,” Ethan replied with a grin.They held their position, firing at the enemy constantly until Roy was able to catch up with them a

The escape was anything but smooth. As soon as the team emerged from the tent with James, the camp exploded into chaos. Alarms blared, and enemy troops swarmed.The enemies troops began swarming the campChris senses heightened instantly “Move!” he barked, his rifle barking in sharp bursts as he covered their retreat.Ethan provided backup, his aim deadly as he took down enemies with precision. “They’re closing in!”The rest of the squad began shooting as well in order to decrease the pressure.Unfortunately, Chris and his team were pinned down as they were taking heavy fire from all sides.The number of enemy troops was three times as much as what the mission report stated.Chris was taken off guard by how quickly the mission had gotten out of control and it seemed like he had fallen into a trap.Chris’s instincts kicked in as he took cover behind a stack of crates, his weapon firing in controlled bursts. “They knew we were coming,” he muttered, his mind racing.Despite the odds, th

The Midnight RaidBy the time the moon hung high in the sky, Chris and his handpicked team were en route to Sudan. The helicopter flew low, its rotors slicing through the stillness of the desert night.Chris briefed the team over the roar of the engines. “We’re dealing with a highly organized group. They’ve anticipated our moves before. Expect heavy resistance. Our priority is James. Nothing else matters.”The plan was to extract James and the team will be transported from the site by a military convoy led by Mason which was already enroute couple of hours ago.Chris was surprised that Mason willingly chose to lead the escort team as he had expected that Mason would never want to miss the action. As the enemy camp came into view, the tension in the air was electric. The camp sprawled across the sand, a chaotic mix of tents, watchtowers, and armed patrols.The helicopter hovered just long enough for the team to rappel down, their black gear blending seamlessly with the shadows.They
