“Carl Gerald, This is my game now. You move, and I detonate.”

“I’m not kidding—I’ll blow up your precious Debra Zachs and this little boy, Martinez, to smithereens!”

Her voice had been laced with desperation, her hand trembling as it hovered over the detonator.

The warehouse had fallen silent, the tension was now suffocating, if not too suffocating.

Victor Tyler had shifted, his voice cutting through the already established tension.

“You’re out of moves, Lara Peterson. You think you’re in control, but you’re not!” His voice was laced with anger and venom as he continued.

“We’ve got eyes on every inch of this place. You press that button, and you’re the first one we take out.”

Lara Peterson's eyes had darted between General Carl Gerald and Victor Tyler, her chest heaving.

“You think you scare me? I’ve got nothing left to lose. You took my father, my family, my life.”

“This bomb is my way out. You want Debra Zachs and the kid, Mr Eliot's little brother? Come and get them. But you’ll b

    “Zaia Scott.” General Carl Gerald immediately called out, his voice was a bit above whispers as he called out to Zaia Scott who was still standing there with the fully loaded pistol still in her hand at the moment.The situation was intense and palpable as General Carl Gerald immediately took a deep breath and stared at Captain Luke who was still in shock and bewilderment.Actually everyone at the moment was shocked, no one had really expected that General Carl Gerald would actually be the ones to step out of his vehicle and come to the last All Terrain Vehicle (ATV) which was the All Terrain Vehicle (ATV) that Captain Luke was driving with Mrs Juliet Marcus, Debra Zachs and Zaia Scott inside.“General Carl Gerald, I was the one who suggested that we hand over the fully loaded pistol to Zaia Scott, I mean look at her, she is already scared from this whole thing that is happening here at the moment.”“I don't actually blame her, if I were to be the one in this situation, I would still

    “I need to get out of here now.” Zaia Scott immediately muttered to herself as she stared at everything happening around her in shock and bewilderment.Zaia Scott was still in shock, she was now pretty much on self guard, much more than she was some moments ago.Her gaze was now sharp and completely fixed on Mrs Juliet Marcus, Captain Luke and ultimately Debra Zachs.The air feels thick, like syrup, and every second we sit here is another second for them to close in…Zaia Scott immediately shook her head, trying to dislodge the spiral, but the thoughts clung like burrs. ‘They’re arming up, calm as you please, and I’m the one without a gun. Debra Zach’s smiling—smiling!—like this is a training exercise.’‘What if she’s in on it? No, that’s insane. But Mrs. Juliet Marcus keeps glancing at me like I’m a bomb about to go off.'‘Captain Luke’s sweating, but is it fear or guilt? What if the radio static is fake, a looped recording to isolate us?’‘What if the real convoy is miles away by n

    “What if this whole mission was a trap from the beginning?” Zaia Scott immediately asked, her voice was laced with curiosity and bewilderment.The whole situation was intense and palpable as Captain Luke, Mrs Juliet Marcus and Debra Zachs tried to access the whole situation and answer her question almost immediately.Captain Luke who was still trying to salvage the whole situation by reaching out to General Carl Gerald, Detective Steve, Jason and Lieutenant Alex on his internal high military grade radio transmitter immediately turned and stared at Zaia Scott.He took a deep breath and decided to answer the question which Zaia Scott had just asked.“Zaia Scott, I think it’s better if we all take a breath and not jump straight to worst-case scenarios,” Captain Luke said, his voice steady and completely laced with a mix of determination and curiosity.He set the radio down on the dashboard, the static still hissing like a trapped snake, and twisted in his seat to face the back. “A trap?

    The situation was intense and palpable as all the All Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) which were currently on a mission to take Sara Gerald, General Carl Gerald's sister to the new secret Elite Divisions Military units secret service health facility hidden deep within the mountains.“What's going on at the moment?” Mrs Juliet Marcus immediately asked right after Debra Zachs had just asked the question.“I'm really not sure at the moment.” Captain Luke immediately answered from where he was. He was actually on the driver's seat of the All Terrain Vehicle which he was currently driving.The whole situation was intense and palpable as Debra Zachs, Mrs Juliet Marcus immediately armed themselves with their fully loaded desert eagle, they were ever ready for battle as expected of anyone who was actually going to be in the military team of General Carl Gerald, the renowned leader of the Elite Divisions Military units secret service agency.“What the heck, am I the only one who isn't going to get a g

    Mrs Juliet Marcus's thoughts raced vehemently as she stared at Captain Luke.“But if I had to pinpoint changes... well, I'd start with internal communication.”“The agency operates on a need-to-know basis, which is vital for security, but it sometimes breeds silos.”“Elite Division Military units secret service agents in the field, like during the Justice Raids, could benefit from more cross-departmental briefings to avoid overlaps or missed intel.”“I'd love to see mandatory forums where lower ranks voice ideas without fear—think town halls inspired by the Unity Marches, but internal.” Mrs Juliet Marcus immediately said as she stared at Captain Luke through the rearview mirror.“Another thing, Captain Luke, is actually resource allocation. The focus on high-tech like Tech for Tranquility is brilliant, but grassroots efforts, such as expanding the Youth Reinforcement Programs, need more funding.”“We've diverted too much to border ops, leaving urban kids vulnerable to recruitment.

    Captain Luke slowly listened intently, his expression softening. After a moment, he turned his attention to Mrs. Juliet Marcus. "Mrs. Marcus, what's your take on General Carl Gerald initially blacklisting Jasmine and declaring her a public enemy of the Elite Divisions Military Units Secret Service Agency? It was a bold move, especially so quickly after the incident." His voice was laced with a mix of determination and curiosity as he asked and stared at Mrs Juliet Marcus.Mrs. Juliet Marcus sighed, folding her hands in her lap as she gathered her thoughts. "Captain Luke, it's a complex decision, but I understand where General Gerald was coming from. In the heat of the moment, with his sister—Sara—gunned down at such a public event, the priority was containment and protection.”“Blacklisting Jasmine was about sending a clear message: No one, not even someone close, gets a pass if evidence points their way. It prevented potential copycats, rallied our allies, and allowed for a swift i
