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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt377VXEVJI
I feel sick.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcS7IbAXFj
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?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRpcM69Noi
The other two were left behind in the previous vehicle. I alone occupied the whole backseat.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg05OciVRQ3
Finally I had guts to look out the window,
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yoPqMeHr4
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ45XUTN04m
A garage, it is.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9JUSJyjXE
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECh5zhtYwR
Everywhere armed men dressed in similar uniforms, expressionless faces at every corner of the hallway lined in alert.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQo6s6yLs0
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDU88WMqLBg
He swiped his card. The door clicked open revealing couch on the edge of the opposite wall, I stepped inside the threshold,
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡne30sa4pCA
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,
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpo7IyTcGN
I waited, there were many,
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B4Cyri6Ty
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,
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMDC3E0PPr
From inside one shouted. "Clear.",
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPiQoK0ZMX
They had dispersed into each room, and hallway,
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsrRCYLBZX
From every corner one after other each one of them reported from their respective locations, "clear, here."
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMD5RJAvkp
Closed the door "Clear."
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtGcuLloML
"Clear."
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6iujiYUjt
From upstairs too, "clear, here."
Which meant there's another floor here.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoTSjmoQOg
Nothing was left for surprise or shock.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUg8O7eNFS1
The boys left just as they came.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9c8aUylWS
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zRmpF80bi
I entered the bedroom. It was basic, not luxurious, just for staying a night or two,
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoKp4IyLAY
It is meant for hiding purpose, and survival. That's why the housing mirrors basic apartment.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8K8u1CxNWf
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiS8omLY0K
So cowardly of me!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIynPZJxFeO
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRjFFg3Z9z
Callen!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3i2sLRmbo
I left him alone too!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBe0Tlq8Zei
Though I saw him fight back fiercely. It still doesn't verify he will be back alive.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qpXEccneZ
My knees collapsed and I stifled a frustrated scream.
I hadn’t noticed the goose bumps creeping on my arms until now,
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUR1PYdAejI
Water! I need water..My throat burnt of tortured thirst.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmhQc4Jkb4
I felt too weak to walk up to the fridge and instead rolled and rocked myself from side to side.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30bdEs1nCo
I laid there for what felt like hours.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfow32s02z
Weak...
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPLaFeJDtk
Powerless...
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuKkJ9p9aN
Unwanted...

Nuisance...

I had decreased to a sobbing mess for I had no more energy or water left to shed.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruddpqfD5M
I was suffocating. I searched the walls to find only one small window at the ceiling, just like a cell. Rest was packed stuffed.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4aQWhyhCL
Now that I analyse closely,
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDA1zEq8fF9
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.
