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.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewjfTFv4tG
I feel sick.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoOkoWK7eV
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,
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohRfl05OEd
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?
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVUS1AAfU9
The other two were left behind in the previous vehicle. I alone occupied the whole backseat.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bD3HTBusJ
Finally I had guts to look out the window,
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJBQTIyETT
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.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Jvi6rufwV
A garage, it is.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHdYNjz9kJ
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.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpup8jVXJa
Everywhere armed men dressed in similar uniforms, expressionless faces at every corner of the hallway lined in alert.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡli4G2XrJVp
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.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJB8lJHRqn
He swiped his card. The door clicked open revealing couch on the edge of the opposite wall, I stepped inside the threshold,
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUnkBpy2xN
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,
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzTpJEzUlN
I waited, there were many,
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiLiNP1sZA
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,
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Re0uQhcXe
From inside one shouted. "Clear.",
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiVNb7NPdW
They had dispersed into each room, and hallway,
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zdL6PYvkR
From every corner one after other each one of them reported from their respective locations, "clear, here."
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZzLNFTone
Closed the door "Clear."
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIMiPLA49C
"Clear."
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuNLoJcG6m
From upstairs too, "clear, here."
Which meant there's another floor here.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxIu89KtwE
Nothing was left for surprise or shock.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0U64feqyQ
The boys left just as they came.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8IIM95ttJ
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.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpgADYgr56
I entered the bedroom. It was basic, not luxurious, just for staying a night or two,
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSv8UJSYTcV
It is meant for hiding purpose, and survival. That's why the housing mirrors basic apartment.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDgvhosddw
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.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHfdqcEJfl
So cowardly of me!
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSjvXAftmt
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.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOycgbh8Dr
Callen!
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwOaG9xn50
I left him alone too!
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYyYe0ouig
Though I saw him fight back fiercely. It still doesn't verify he will be back alive.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0Xs9XVI6U
My knees collapsed and I stifled a frustrated scream.
I hadn’t noticed the goose bumps creeping on my arms until now,
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkQ57OECw8
Water! I need water..My throat burnt of tortured thirst.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYy3sR23Rm
I felt too weak to walk up to the fridge and instead rolled and rocked myself from side to side.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmcpQIsaiQ
I laid there for what felt like hours.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgqVZZ29Lo
Weak...
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnazjkKWVg6

351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ujYdkXfHv
Unwanted...

I had decreased to a sobbing mess for I had no more energy or water left to shed.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivxJ9DrBF7
I was suffocating. I searched the walls to find only one small window at the ceiling, just like a cell. Rest was packed stuffed.
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKklciRGwCg
Now that I analyse closely,
351Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCJ48Pa1cO
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.
