No one spoke. Like dead statues on duty, none lose their focus. I was left in the dark. I am an outsider. I'm new and the reason of attack. I'm no help either. It's obvious I'm unwanted here.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPh96CY6htu
I feel sick.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5JUkWeDJ1
This car too is comprised of things for safety under attack.

It was a long drive, covering large distance we changed cars again. Like last time, the two cars almost stuck together, as we climbed from one car to another, no gap in between, I needn't step on road,
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAy2nmWQPb
I looked at the man in front seat from the rear view mirror when the tensed driver put the car in gear. He had a deep old scar running down his crooked nose down to his jaw he scratched irritated. I turned to the driver who was tanned, deep, almost burnt. What caused it?
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYvAYoRkIg
The other two were left behind in the previous vehicle. I alone occupied the whole backseat.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wlGEqVxbH
Finally I had guts to look out the window,
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XbOW53QvD
Far beyond I saw huge concrete walls, squinting my eyes I saw wires covering the top of the boundaries. We were heading the same way, huge iron gates marked our entry. In no time, the driver was swiping his entry card into the lock system.

I gaped at the old prison like building. We didn't stop even at its doors, the metal barrier lifted as soon as the car approached it's way.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJIYRrXCwT
A garage, it is.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeE9I9DejKv
We were in, and darkness followed. My side of door was opened. I took it as a sign to step out, blinding lights switched on. I squeeze shut my eyes letting my irises adjust to the lights.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4R3EOPLrHy
Everywhere armed men dressed in similar uniforms, expressionless faces at every corner of the hallway lined in alert.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklu1qcPE4I
The scared man lead the way, the driver didn't follow, even stairs had men with rifles. I kept my head straight and my lids down.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KOzRpLd5r
He swiped his card. The door clicked open revealing couch on the edge of the opposite wall, I stepped inside the threshold,
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLy1wFZzZJ
He lifted his hand blocking my way, I met his gaze, always tense, I stepped back instead taking the hint, I rolled back my shoulders as I heard footsteps marching in my direction from behind, I didn't turn,
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2EUWlbXHq
I waited, there were many,
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJ0257AYAI
Surpassing me two rows consisting of five men with gun pressed to their heart in alert ready to shoot, just like every other individual here,
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7DRlwzAgB
From inside one shouted. "Clear.",
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVChCITCoq
They had dispersed into each room, and hallway,
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAuev2lVsA
From every corner one after other each one of them reported from their respective locations, "clear, here."
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5J0RkZja3
Closed the door "Clear."
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOPZdeglUh
"Clear."
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOxucS9jdo
From upstairs too, "clear, here."
Which meant there's another floor here.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhIHupCkFK
Nothing was left for surprise or shock.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkaCa0D5CW
The boys left just as they came.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlgThyaVc0
At ease I finally looked around for myself well equipped kitchen counter rounding the dining area decorated the place, two more doors, I guess leading to bedrooms. The sitting area had no separations in particular.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XKuX6ntNi
I entered the bedroom. It was basic, not luxurious, just for staying a night or two,
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnK3uZt6mR
It is meant for hiding purpose, and survival. That's why the housing mirrors basic apartment.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZrgPtkJHq
Even the guy with scar had left me locked safe inside. It is a traumatic experience. I witnessed horrifying deaths right in front of me. People I could have saved, I didn't. I ran away. I escaped.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1YrHcXmKv
So cowardly of me!
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCrB2OTpUL
Tear streaked cheeks turned wet again. I was alone and safe to cry aloud since the time allows it. I don't know when I will get this opportunity again.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fK2U9xfQk
Callen!
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYqPBMDMVv
I left him alone too!
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDblOk5QHSe
Though I saw him fight back fiercely. It still doesn't verify he will be back alive.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxG8efcTEgt
My knees collapsed and I stifled a frustrated scream.
I hadn’t noticed the goose bumps creeping on my arms until now,
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRW5kDShIBT
Water! I need water..My throat burnt of tortured thirst.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xloSB8hDE
I felt too weak to walk up to the fridge and instead rolled and rocked myself from side to side.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuvNvBJpw1
I laid there for what felt like hours.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh08fJ0knNw
Weak...
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVURe150Nbs
Powerless...
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIg8fN1B6Zb
Unwanted...
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6UWn96Q1l
Nuisance...

I had decreased to a sobbing mess for I had no more energy or water left to shed.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MHKobtHsy
I was suffocating. I searched the walls to find only one small window at the ceiling, just like a cell. Rest was packed stuffed.
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1x4JRlt00
Now that I analyse closely,
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTOuMP5FZd
It became more clearer now, Callen's men were instructed beforehand to keep me this classified.
Even in deserted area, his men are trained to not alone trust the remoteness. They were that particular. Their protocol and accuracy emphasizes how organized callen's field of work is.
