Now, outside the ward, General Carl Gerald, Sara Gerald, Debra Zachs, Mrs Juliet, Lieutenant Alex, and Detective Steve gathered in the hallway, the hospital’s sterile sound was just a stark contrast to the tension between them all of them at the very moment.The Elite Divisions soldiers stood watch, their eyes scanning every passing nurse and visitor as they all walked past them.Sara Gerald leaned against the wall, her voice was kind of a little bit soft but now laced with curiosity and bewilderment.“Okay, someone spilled. How did you guys even know I was in trouble at Venus Hills? I didn’t call for backup.” She finally asked and broke the silence that was almost covering them up.General Carl Gerald slowly smirked a little bit, exchanging a glance with Lieutenant Alex and Detective Steve. “You didn’t need to, sis. That button on your shirt? It’s not just a button.”“I promised mom that I was going to really take care of you and I had no intentions of breaking my promise to mom…not

General Carl Gerald took and nailed a super shot that shattered a goon’s knee, dropping him to the floor almost immediately he took the shot.“Doesn’t matter. We hold the line no matter what Detective Steve. Jason, cover the right flank—don’t let them circle!”“Don't let them circle us from your own end.” General Carl Gerald said, his voice was laced with a mix of determination and curiosity as he continued taking out more goons from Lord Denver, Lord Wilson, the Black Triangle Syndicate and White Lotus group.Jason, the newly joined military soldier, immediately nodded, moving to a better position which was still near where General Carl Gerald, Detective Steve, Lieutenant Alex were at that very exact moment.“On it, General Carl Gerald! These bastards are relentless—look, they’re using smoke grenades now!” Jason immediately said as he spotted one of the goons from Lord Wilson, Lord Denver, the black triangle syndicate and white lotus group holding a smoke grenade launcher.Smoke imme

The situation was intense and palpable as Jason knelt by a fallen soldier, closing his eyes.From his own eyes welled tears and anger…like literally you could see, taste and feel the anger from his eyes as he stared at Private Ramirez.“Private Ramirez… he had a kid on the way. These bastards took him from his family.” His voice was laced with a mixture of anger and frustration General Carl Gerald's eyes welled with tears, but he held it together almost immediately.“They all had families, dreams. Ramirez, Thompson, Lee—they stood tall when it counted.”“I promised them we’d win this war, and now they’re gone.” General Carl Gerald immediately said as he took a deep breath and stared at the sky, a very big drop of tears immediately escaped his without him knowing and immediately fell to the floor without him even realizing it at the moment.Lieutenant Alex immediately placed a hand on General Carl Gerald's shoulder. “General Carl Gerald, they didn’t die for nothing. Every one of thos

General Carl Gerald immediately agreed. “Deal Jason. Tie ‘em tight—hands, feet. No chances.” His voice was laced with a mixture of authority and regulated precision.They all worked quickly, binding the groaning goons as quickly as possible.The air around them was tense, the group silent at first, then talk flowed as they processed towards the other side of the hospital…Andrews Hospital.General Carl Gerald paced forward. “This attack—it’s proof we’re close. They wouldn’t risk this unless Zaia Scott and Jasmine know something big.”“We really need to find that out too, we need all the information we can get at the moment.” He said, as he walked.Lieutenant Alex leaned against a car. “Portside meeting tomorrow night. Bet these goons were sent to stop us from getting there.”Detective Steve checked the bindings to make sure it's solid and well tied up.“Yeah, but who tipped ‘em off? Someone inside?”Jason immediately tightened a knot. “Could be. The Black Triangle Syndicates and Whit

Jason said angrily as he swung his hand hard, slapping her across the face with a crack that completely resounded in the night air. Lara Peterson's head immediately moved and snapped to the side, a red mark now appeared on her cheek.“Jason!” General Carl Gerald immediately said, grabbing the young soldier’s arm. .“Stand down! We don’t do that…at least not yet, there will definitely come a time for violence but not at this point.” General Carl Gerald's voice was a bit above whispers as he called out to Jason almost immediately.But Jason wasn’t backing off, his chest was actually still heaving. “She deserves it, General Carl Gerald! After what her kind did to our guys? Ramirez, Thompson—they’re dead because of people like her!”“This lady is a scumbag and deserves to die as one!” His voice was laced with a mix of determination and anger.Lara Peterson slowly turned her head back slowly, wiping blood from her lip with her shoulder, her eyes locked on Jason like a predator of some s
