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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcLKcx1C5P
I feel sick.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdXgPwvpCY
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,
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcBbAXSDX8
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?
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJoZo8vXv3
The other two were left behind in the previous vehicle. I alone occupied the whole backseat.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccPL6wJY9x
Finally I had guts to look out the window,
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PKmvJDgU9
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUS4vvZVub
A garage, it is.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFt490Qv4X9
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGfpQlZ4av
Everywhere armed men dressed in similar uniforms, expressionless faces at every corner of the hallway lined in alert.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Do5qq8Vb9
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hz7lIPSYr
He swiped his card. The door clicked open revealing couch on the edge of the opposite wall, I stepped inside the threshold,
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQxxicfVI0
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,
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyaVCLVBRm
I waited, there were many,
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD2frdsQUL
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,
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp0xAphUSc
From inside one shouted. "Clear.",
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsWdK8CRaQ
They had dispersed into each room, and hallway,
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQDAKgbKrd
From every corner one after other each one of them reported from their respective locations, "clear, here."
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVxjwE7hvs
Closed the door "Clear."
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6f64kSY0zg
"Clear."
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2Lp7b6gpx
From upstairs too, "clear, here."
Which meant there's another floor here.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQsiLwT7if
Nothing was left for surprise or shock.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2LiI7fQfG
The boys left just as they came.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wcekb8lHw
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkC8jNcWpd
I entered the bedroom. It was basic, not luxurious, just for staying a night or two,
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvy7tVALR5h
It is meant for hiding purpose, and survival. That's why the housing mirrors basic apartment.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjLbxuOOId
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3l9sclOKXY
So cowardly of me!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIPOstA3uO
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.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9XZN0KkxE
Callen!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAStKlqHs1
I left him alone too!
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVmu0u07bl
Though I saw him fight back fiercely. It still doesn't verify he will be back alive.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88XL263gMB
My knees collapsed and I stifled a frustrated scream.
I hadn’t noticed the goose bumps creeping on my arms until now,
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeobt1btu5v
Water! I need water..My throat burnt of tortured thirst.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9j3ogXxaGz
I felt too weak to walk up to the fridge and instead rolled and rocked myself from side to side.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbd2cbhEOV
I laid there for what felt like hours.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybbVaCTT86
Weak...
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWUJ8lhxh8
Powerless...
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGreszNuaX4
Unwanted...
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG41hnLhay
Nuisance...
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5rALTpi86
I had decreased to a sobbing mess for I had no more energy or water left to shed.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymwbGqQok4
I was suffocating. I searched the walls to find only one small window at the ceiling, just like a cell. Rest was packed stuffed.
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLVg2LZILg
Now that I analyse closely,
343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZDsmuVwbA
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.
