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.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ISitOxCog
I feel sick.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4bsBkke6X
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?
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72c8Ee3GLP
The other two were left behind in the previous vehicle. I alone occupied the whole backseat.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnj5f1U710
Finally I had guts to look out the window,
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEz1pqB7Rr
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.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66BNOJyBr0
A garage, it is.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7WRS9sX1Y
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.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2qtqquISS
Everywhere armed men dressed in similar uniforms, expressionless faces at every corner of the hallway lined in alert.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTjkQW4fTx
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.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJov10WmPY
He swiped his card. The door clicked open revealing couch on the edge of the opposite wall, I stepped inside the threshold,
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdrftbugVH
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,
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZNYjjndhO
I waited, there were many,
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZe4bj1cOI
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,
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8R2Y1vwgk0
From inside one shouted. "Clear.",
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdd8A12cB1A
They had dispersed into each room, and hallway,
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqKcxp6ArU
From every corner one after other each one of them reported from their respective locations, "clear, here."
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvIY37nvOF
Closed the door "Clear."
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivmFoZF2CE
"Clear."
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBcri5xyJo
From upstairs too, "clear, here."
Which meant there's another floor here.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7wSSVhLrJ
Nothing was left for surprise or shock.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVyJJ2QWHT
The boys left just as they came.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDYvCzguVy
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.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw1RC7yyfD
I entered the bedroom. It was basic, not luxurious, just for staying a night or two,
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfVS7OKjI3
It is meant for hiding purpose, and survival. That's why the housing mirrors basic apartment.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNc5jZb4ZN
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.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFXXmlkcLF
So cowardly of me!
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeA2GJfZ6NR
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.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgZ4VeX04N
Callen!
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1VoOFFGlN
I left him alone too!
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwsyq2ipfY
Though I saw him fight back fiercely. It still doesn't verify he will be back alive.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQInrqw7yQc
My knees collapsed and I stifled a frustrated scream.
I hadn’t noticed the goose bumps creeping on my arms until now,
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnFGVvdv9n
Water! I need water..My throat burnt of tortured thirst.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHykD5I0JtH
I felt too weak to walk up to the fridge and instead rolled and rocked myself from side to side.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogzNzHGTUa
I laid there for what felt like hours.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92fC9dHxep
Weak...
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORmN296ub0
Powerless...
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOn5WcK14m
Unwanted...
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpsucQF2oZ
Nuisance...

I had decreased to a sobbing mess for I had no more energy or water left to shed.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeahN8HXFz
I was suffocating. I searched the walls to find only one small window at the ceiling, just like a cell. Rest was packed stuffed.
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCKdjFDagR
Now that I analyse closely,
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmDvCjomLC
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.
