We can’t just leave Hayden here. How am I supposed to just walk out when Hayden is still stuck there in the middle of all the enemies?
"We need to help Hayden!" I scread and my voice ca out as an ugly croak.
One of Hayden’s n reached out his hands towards
as if to receive
from the tall man; however, when the ti ca, the tall man wouldn’t let
go.
What is going on?
"I see. This was never really about just the money. Well if you’re going to do sothing, now’s the ti…" Hayden spoke up loudly.
Suddenly, the situation had changed. The man refused to let
go and Hayden was still stuck on the other side. What is going to happen now?
…
**A few hours before**
"This is just a hypothetical situation but what if they demand to take you in instead of Malissa. You do know that these guys probably hold so personal grudges against Torex, right?" Ethan asked.
"Simple. You save Malissa. You ignore
and you kill as many of them as possible," Hayden replied without hesitation.
"She’s not going to like that. She’ll never leave you or anyone behind," Ethan replied knowingly.
"I don’t think she’ll be in a position to choose when the ti cos. She’s probably at least tied up and gagged if not also blindfolded," Hayden replied darkly.
"Probably…" Ethan agreed passively.
"In case she struggles, we’ll use this. It’s painless and has the least side effects…" Hayden explained.
Ethan’s eyes travelled to the liquid substance in the bottle that Hayden was gesturing to before making a disgusted face.
"Says the doctor…" Ethan muttered.
"Just do as I say. I’m the doctor here," Hayden replied before grinning wickedly.
"We’ll probably need so major distractions to distract them if they demand for a switch. Best case is if we can distract them, we all can try to get Malissa out in the confusion, and perhaps, you can escape in the foray as well," Ethan suggested.
"Any ideas?" Hayden inquired.
"Hmm…what about sothing like all walls co crashing down at once?" Ethan suggested excitedly.
Hayden’s eyes widened in surprise at his strange friend while Ethan smiled mischievously.
…
Suddenly, the ground underneath
shook and loud sounds went off just like explosions. The tall man froze from shocked as he looked around. I did the sa before I felt my body being roughly pulled away. The sound of explosion was deafening, and it didn’t cease. All lights went off and it was suddenly quite dark. I couldn’t see anything for a while until my eyes started adjusting to the darkness.
"This way, My Lady…" a man yelled into my ear as he dragged
along.
I felt the presence of many n around
as they slowly moved along with
towards the exit of the warehouse. Then I heard and saw many people running, moving, and screaming all around . It was pure chaos. It was too dark for
to see anything more than silhouettes. Where is Hayden?!
Now that my hands and feet were free, I started struggling for real against the man who held . His grip was so tight and the more that I struggled while screaming Hayden’s na, his arms tightened around
as he continued to drag
towards the exit.
"Hayden! Hayden! Hayden is still in there…" I cried out until my throat hurt.
Darkness slowly turned to light as light shined in from above. Confused, I looked up to see the walls of the warehouse cracking and then breaking before it all started to crumble down. Soone, exploded the walls?
I stared at the walls and then the ceiling as my mouth dropped open in shock. I wanted to scream but I couldn’t.
We’re all going to die in here…
…
"All n move in now! Get Malissa and Hayden out. Kill all enemies!" Ethan shouted loudly.
All n charged in and Ethan along with them. It was dark and although the light from outside was streaming in, the warehouse was still pretty much dark. That wasn’t surprising because it was nightti outside. Night goggles that he and all his n had on helped imnsely. That along with guns with silencers helped Ethan and his n eliminate their targets easily.
The most troubleso part was finding and rescuing Hayden from this chaos. Where is that glow in the dark marking that I’m supposed to look for?
Based on his plans, Hayden is supposed to have a marking on his clothes that would glow in the dark after the lights in the warehouse went off. Based on the sa logic, Malissa should have one on her too if Hayden succeeded on planting one on her. With everything that just happened, Malissa should be safe enough because she was surrounded by Torex n and should be very close to the exit by now.
The wall explosion had left the walls with many holes in which the n from Silva and Torex used to enter into the warehouse with the aim to eliminate the enemy and control the situation. Now if only he can find Hayden.
…
"Stop struggling!" the man shouted.
"No! Hayden is in there. We can’t leave him!" I scread back.
If he’s going to get
out of here, he has to take
by force. I’m not leaving Hayden in here.
"You can’t help him. Even if you went back there, you can’t help him!" the man yelled at .
The worst part was that I knew that he was right and that just drove
mad with fear and anger at how useless I was. This ss is all because of
and there’s nothing that I can do about it.
If sothing happens to Hayden…I’ll…
Just thinking about it made
feel sick. I started crying again more from frustration than from fear or sadness.
"Can we wait here? Please?!" I pleaded.
"No. My orders are to get you out of here. You heard, Hayden. We need to get out now!" he barked at
as he continued to drag
towards the exit while I tried to turn and pull back in the opposite direction.
