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.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3CUDxe9IJ
I feel sick.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvDPx1yxdj
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,

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?
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fjYfadF6l
The other two were left behind in the previous vehicle. I alone occupied the whole backseat.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQU3yPW1x7v
Finally I had guts to look out the window,
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBcGT4e8En
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.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsDADcR4rl
A garage, it is.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2tVPbPj66
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.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkL90n1HLcj
Everywhere armed men dressed in similar uniforms, expressionless faces at every corner of the hallway lined in alert.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcHTEES8kH
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.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpbwTQyYtR
He swiped his card. The door clicked open revealing couch on the edge of the opposite wall, I stepped inside the threshold,
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflXVsoursb
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,
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqfFtPZt6U
I waited, there were many,
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDeDDVx1uE
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,
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsD1VSA7AA
From inside one shouted. "Clear.",
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWDp1ysiG9
They had dispersed into each room, and hallway,
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiTI6urYyF
From every corner one after other each one of them reported from their respective locations, "clear, here."
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZVX3n9zbC
Closed the door "Clear."
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFHQJGmvO1
"Clear."
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5v9EAANIP
From upstairs too, "clear, here."
Which meant there's another floor here.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahtZDQZuGi
Nothing was left for surprise or shock.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQ8rI1mwyi
The boys left just as they came.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkv2nP4o38
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.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONtX3PCaUC
I entered the bedroom. It was basic, not luxurious, just for staying a night or two,
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnGrTHJUbI
It is meant for hiding purpose, and survival. That's why the housing mirrors basic apartment.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtssr50pSXG
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.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7nk6ZM774
So cowardly of me!
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxCACsoLSQ
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.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YdoXrkuid
Callen!
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleycfbK7Tn
I left him alone too!
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsoLf8EGPN
Though I saw him fight back fiercely. It still doesn't verify he will be back alive.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8vZEBCfrR
My knees collapsed and I stifled a frustrated scream.
I hadn’t noticed the goose bumps creeping on my arms until now,
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fpNxjrivZ
Water! I need water..My throat burnt of tortured thirst.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzrDAFkNkO
I felt too weak to walk up to the fridge and instead rolled and rocked myself from side to side.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4QH9rz5db
I laid there for what felt like hours.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgyEfbNhL0
Weak...
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8cNYz5wZD
Powerless...
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaQ8H0a2GA
Unwanted...
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH8WGut5Xy
Nuisance...

I had decreased to a sobbing mess for I had no more energy or water left to shed.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHZrHO8e34
I was suffocating. I searched the walls to find only one small window at the ceiling, just like a cell. Rest was packed stuffed.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQm4XSom28
Now that I analyse closely,
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXstT3I4cA
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.
