James continued to watch the safe, and when he turned it over. He saw it, the timer. The bomb had really been ticking."Shit!" He cursed and got up"Hey! Stop there! Don't move!" Claps shouted out. He pointed the gun at him along with two other men.Dark clouds got off the floor, pressing his hand to his head.He took a gun from one of his guys and pointed it at James."You really think you can outsmart me and play the role of some kind of sick hero, huh??" Dark Clouds asked him."You know that I know, right? How long do you think you can stay under false pretense?" James asked him. He had his gun pointed at them."Lost in your own understanding, I see." Dark Clouds said. "Well, whatever it is you know, is completely insignificant right now. You will get me that bioweapon and you will disable that bomb. " Dark Clouds said."Well, I hate to disappoint you but that is impossible. That safe is rigged and what you hear ticking right now, is currently counting down at the behinds of that s

William's eyes roamed Sarah's body. From her messy hair to her knee-length t-shirt which was not decent at all."What are you doing here, Williams?" She asked him. She had lost her ability to be scared. She did not owe Williams anything. This whole engagement was set up by her family and not her."What- what do you mean by what am I doing here? I am here to see if you are okay. You are my fiancee for goodness sake." He said to her."Who is in there?" He said pushing past her."Williams! Williams, this is not appropriate! What gives you the right to just barge into my house like this? I wasn't expecting you, and frankly, I do not owe you any explanation!" Sarah yelled at him."Really?? Really Sarah? Don't you? Who is in there??" He yelled at her."You will not yell or make certain accusations in my house. I do not want to fight with you, Williams. Quietly get the hell out of my apartment right now." She yelled at him."I do not want to fight with you either, but you need to get your he

"The inauguration ceremony will be taking place in a few weeks. It would be more than amazing if you did not have any other engagements that day. The commander-in-chief would be there, and by that, you know who I mean. The President himself would be there, Johnson." The General said to James, while they sat in his office back at the Military Base.The office was well furnished. It was a navy blue painted cool looking, spacious setting. There was a fur carpet spread across the floor, a huge black, swivelling chair on which the General sat and two other comfortable black chairs for guests.There was one long nude-coloured sofa and beautiful artwork decorated the walls."This will be your office soon enough. You are free to head to the company and do the needful for your business, but you have to show up at the office for at least a couple hours a day. How's your arm healing?" He asked James.James seemed a bit distracted. His mood had already turned sour after his argument with Sarah th

Antonio Rizzo strode angrily into the room where his daughter and Peter Causey sat. His expression was one of maddened fury.Causey knew that the meeting would not be a friendly one.Rizzo had a cigarette in his mouth which had not been lit. His missing eye seemed to glare at everything along with his other eye."One job... You had one job!" Rizzo yelled out. " All the men died in that explosion. Every single one of them." Rizzo queried."You did not listen to my advice when I suggested that we hold back the Operation until a later date. Anything that involves that bastard, James Johnson always ends up in disaster. We needed to ensure that those codes were secured." Causey said."Are you by any chance trying to blame my Father for this?" Viola asked him. She sat in a chair opposite Causey, dressed in a green shirt, black pants, and a green hat."I never said that, young lady. I am just saying that it pays to listen to advice sometimes, even when it comes from subordinates." Causey rep

The nurse took her time to remove the needle from James' arm. The door to his hospital room opened up and Anna walked in with a bag of clothes in her hands. She placed them gently on the table which was available in the room."You are set to leave now, Mr. Johnson. But do not forget to take your medications as prescribed by the Doctor." The nurse instructed him and picked up the metal tray whic she had placed on the bed to throw in the needles and bloodied cotton swabs."Thank you, Nurse." Anna said as the nurse walked out of the room."What happened?" She asked James. He turned and look at her furtively. He was not ready to get into it at the moment."What makes you think there is something wrong?" He asked her coldly."More than seventeen years of friendship and you think that a certain camouflage can deflect me from seeing the truth." She said to him."Are you certain you aren't just reading into my sick look?" James asked her evasively."I think the question is are you certain? Wh
