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.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JuT8Zm5a3
I feel sick.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJELakJ5Pr
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,
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQVFtkYfVQ
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?
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7oZiHBi4j
The other two were left behind in the previous vehicle. I alone occupied the whole backseat.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQNjuTgf1H
Finally I had guts to look out the window,
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVqJg41cQJ
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.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9YijzhrOw
A garage, it is.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMtoQ7PlpQ
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.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyf54cBw5lt
Everywhere armed men dressed in similar uniforms, expressionless faces at every corner of the hallway lined in alert.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHupeBYHAhD
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.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GQLBBsXxs
He swiped his card. The door clicked open revealing couch on the edge of the opposite wall, I stepped inside the threshold,
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvBTuN5KIC
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,
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeSU27TGOc
I waited, there were many,
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLxnj0aOfI
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,
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeEgOoUrJS
From inside one shouted. "Clear.",
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCnDvTCsF8
They had dispersed into each room, and hallway,
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBN2k7uQWB
From every corner one after other each one of them reported from their respective locations, "clear, here."
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2djqPwLZN
Closed the door "Clear."
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhMwSluakz
"Clear."
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8poRvcHLO9
From upstairs too, "clear, here."
Which meant there's another floor here.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0grEyr7ZlN
Nothing was left for surprise or shock.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMN3Y5lqCG
The boys left just as they came.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiQCAeTHPE
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.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQgh4VBfZa
I entered the bedroom. It was basic, not luxurious, just for staying a night or two,
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9BU38JVOv
It is meant for hiding purpose, and survival. That's why the housing mirrors basic apartment.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9GJTnU1ab
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.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcOwaNTioE
So cowardly of me!
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6m4OrbTGuB
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.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbU1VD8eXeP
Callen!
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4w8Ii0wuZ4
I left him alone too!
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahrtcyrTLQ
Though I saw him fight back fiercely. It still doesn't verify he will be back alive.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8Hm6mwMXf
My knees collapsed and I stifled a frustrated scream.
I hadn’t noticed the goose bumps creeping on my arms until now,
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2kaXGefg7
Water! I need water..My throat burnt of tortured thirst.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTd9lrUbW5C
I felt too weak to walk up to the fridge and instead rolled and rocked myself from side to side.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqwzzVZ8TD
I laid there for what felt like hours.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIyFlsuQDK
Weak...
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIBRrVnXOv

350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZd6Oyl3S2
Unwanted...

I had decreased to a sobbing mess for I had no more energy or water left to shed.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKBihxEvbD
I was suffocating. I searched the walls to find only one small window at the ceiling, just like a cell. Rest was packed stuffed.
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Uzmid819a
Now that I analyse closely,
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdlynYN6NM
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.
