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.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3NOoa5pfu
I feel sick.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPdfzs1bE1
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,
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zxLSqNmQy
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?
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYDa6m2rvI
The other two were left behind in the previous vehicle. I alone occupied the whole backseat.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinrJA4kBxF
Finally I had guts to look out the window,
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTHyJUcBXH
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.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDSl9zA7xT
A garage, it is.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVG9HhAMLQJ
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.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQulH068CPh
Everywhere armed men dressed in similar uniforms, expressionless faces at every corner of the hallway lined in alert.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcu7eF496CD
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.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySftIeSMGw
He swiped his card. The door clicked open revealing couch on the edge of the opposite wall, I stepped inside the threshold,
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXB5gnwQ4s
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,
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFjiCKsRu1
I waited, there were many,
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9Xvrx92tM
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,
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdugLHU885
From inside one shouted. "Clear.",
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwANLAwjiv
They had dispersed into each room, and hallway,
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7dbFoS5g4
From every corner one after other each one of them reported from their respective locations, "clear, here."
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcoHhYnYZD
Closed the door "Clear."
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4cskv7mJG
"Clear."
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2h0wLw8RSO
From upstairs too, "clear, here."
Which meant there's another floor here.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7BeHTpkvs
Nothing was left for surprise or shock.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvrUtgK5BR
The boys left just as they came.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPt9f6kvt6T
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.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtbcM1DRMm
I entered the bedroom. It was basic, not luxurious, just for staying a night or two,
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorwNWtAUKA
It is meant for hiding purpose, and survival. That's why the housing mirrors basic apartment.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkyWYF9TOP
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.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNE6u9KOO2t
So cowardly of me!
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSy7C3Qn86
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.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0JXr28RpO
Callen!
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUq9LNPqsEI
I left him alone too!
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMqCWJrp4o
Though I saw him fight back fiercely. It still doesn't verify he will be back alive.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxRSuxdZuj
My knees collapsed and I stifled a frustrated scream.
I hadn’t noticed the goose bumps creeping on my arms until now,
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUtYN03KYx
Water! I need water..My throat burnt of tortured thirst.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1SBRXU6qQ
I felt too weak to walk up to the fridge and instead rolled and rocked myself from side to side.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzD4XJiUJdC
I laid there for what felt like hours.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQUaqUaV3Y
Weak...
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPRQyJBrC5
Powerless...
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSjBGzyKk8
Unwanted...
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHu3rpdZhkm
Nuisance...
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQi1m6MZyTF
I had decreased to a sobbing mess for I had no more energy or water left to shed.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG99mrvyLus
I was suffocating. I searched the walls to find only one small window at the ceiling, just like a cell. Rest was packed stuffed.
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnThzscx0T4
Now that I analyse closely,
275Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0FZeBKzlc
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.
