For a mont, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to be rescued anymore. If whoever ca to rescue
had to go through them, then…
"Grab the girl," the man who appeared to be the leader of the group instructed curtly.
"Co here, girl," one of the n approached .
I yelped at the slight pain as his fingers dug into my arm before he basically yanked
up to my feet. It wasn’t easy for
to maintain my balance with my ankles bound together and I almost fell over. The man didn’t seem to care much for my welfare as he pulled on my arms and began dragging
to where the other n were gathered in the center of the warehouse.
A few steps from where we started, the man realized that I couldn’t walk in the state that I was in and decided to half carry and half drag
instead. I whimpered as my feet were dragged roughly across the floor until we reached out destination.
"Sit and stay still," the man said as he shoved
down onto a wooden chair.
"Tie her to the chair, quick. It’s almost ti," their leader commanded.
Another man approached , and I flinched when I saw the thick rope in his hands. The sudden developnt in the situation had truly started to frighten . I stared in shock while my body trembled from fear as the man began looping the thick rope around my waist. He tied a large knot behind the chair and just like that, I was tied to the chair. I quickly found out that I could hardly move at all.
My heart beat loudly in my chest as panic gripped .
After my initial shock had passed, I realized that the leader ntioned sothing about it being ’almost ti’. Ti for what? Is sothing supposed to happen?
"What are you doing?" I protested as another man approached .
"No more speaking," he muttered.
My eyes widened and I cried out. After trying to struggle by turning my head to the side to no avail, the man succeeded in taping my mouth shut. Speaking was no longer an option.
"Don’t worry missy. We’ll be done with you as soon as we get our money," the leader said before he started laughing loudly.
As if that was supposed to bring
any sense of comfort.
It’s ’almost ti’
I see, Hayden is going to co save
soon, right?
…
"Are you sure about this? I thought you always say that your back hurts…" Hayden asked as he shot Luka a teasing look.
"Shut up. I feel completely fine right now," Luka replied but his hand did go to his back.
"Let’s go," Ethan muttered before walking ahead.
Three teams of n followed their respective leader. All teams had received thorough briefing on the mission and what is expected of them. Despite the mission being a simple one of interchanging ransom money for a hostage, the importance and sensitivity of the situation had made calling for a comprehensive eting necessary.
"Listen up all of you. This mission has various priorities which are to be taken care of in this order. First priority, secure Malissa as soon as possible and ensure that she is safe. Second, ensure Malissa’s and Hayden’s safe evacuation out of the site. Third, kill them all! Don’t let even a single soul escape.
I want them all dead. Shoot them, stab them, bomb them! Then, you will all check that none of them are still breathing at the end of the mission. I will not tolerate anyone escaping out of this alive!" the boss explained the mission before ending with his harsh and loud screaming.
"We will also help out on this," Ethan stated without backing down.
"I will not ensure your safety, Silva," the boss said before shooting Ethan a glare.
"We will take care of our own…and of Malissa," Ethan replied decisively.
"Do whatever you want," the boss said.
"I’ll take over the briefing now. Listen closely…" Hayden announced loudly so that everyone could hear.
When he made sure that he had everyone’s attention, Hayden began the real briefing of the mission while conscious that ti was quickly running out. The appointnt ti was fast approaching and getting the n ready and ard was the priority. After having a short conversation with Ethan to strategize, the two had figured out a plan that comprises of using three separate teams of n.
Initially, Hayden did not want to get any help from Ethan, but he had to admit that having Ethan and his n’s help would help the operation run more smoothly. Ethan’s plans were also as calculating and detailed as ever.
"We will separate into three teams. I’m guessing your old man won’t join in the fun, but I know that Luka can’t let so fun pass him by. You, , and Luka will each lead a team. Your team will go in first for the negotiation and to trade the ransom money for Malissa. The key here is to do whatever it takes to secure Malissa, I’m sure that you understand that.
The plan won’t proceed forward until she is safe by your side. I doubt that those n will do anything rash, but you never know. After they get their money and you get Malissa, we proceed to phase two. My team and I will surround the warehouse before entering and attacking," Ethan explained before he paused to see if Hayden was still following.
After a nod of Hayden’s head, Ethan decided to proceed with his explanation of the plan.
"Sohow during that, you need to get Malissa out. I doubt that those n will be willing to let Malissa go freely even after they get the money anyways. Violence will break out for sure. My n and I will kill as many of them and as fast as possible. You and your n just focus on guarding and getting Malissa out to safety.
Once you two are out, Luka and his team will co in and basically slaughter everyone as per the boss’s orders," Ethan concluded with a confident smile.
