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.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAxtZu5YfRhl
I feel sick.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAcML9Ih5VWG
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,
412Please respect copyright.PENANAJI8GWXBJyA
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?
412Please respect copyright.PENANA0tYXf8kQP9
The other two were left behind in the previous vehicle. I alone occupied the whole backseat.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAQr3t4pbTPB
Finally I had guts to look out the window,
412Please respect copyright.PENANAj21moJ0cSo
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.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAqPyOGR4LCh
A garage, it is.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAJNzYYSVaZj
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.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAFznx5mc8eW
Everywhere armed men dressed in similar uniforms, expressionless faces at every corner of the hallway lined in alert.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAfRdJ8vEgbc
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.
412Please respect copyright.PENANABskdUc00nw
He swiped his card. The door clicked open revealing couch on the edge of the opposite wall, I stepped inside the threshold,
412Please respect copyright.PENANACjFd9PaBoB
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,
412Please respect copyright.PENANATNh0vOwnOr
I waited, there were many,
412Please respect copyright.PENANAkx7HjA7V0z
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,
412Please respect copyright.PENANA5rhA6ljJtL
From inside one shouted. "Clear.",
412Please respect copyright.PENANAS9LTbE64O5
They had dispersed into each room, and hallway,
412Please respect copyright.PENANAzlMU0XlGoP
From every corner one after other each one of them reported from their respective locations, "clear, here."
412Please respect copyright.PENANAFyu9W5fbFH
Closed the door "Clear."
412Please respect copyright.PENANABXTKY5ULZ3
"Clear."
412Please respect copyright.PENANAeE3JkqUXqx
From upstairs too, "clear, here."
Which meant there's another floor here.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAUAD0xOqJIy
Nothing was left for surprise or shock.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAvkZCxHWDt3
The boys left just as they came.
412Please respect copyright.PENANA54ejleGzlp
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.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAOX57AcVpyN
I entered the bedroom. It was basic, not luxurious, just for staying a night or two,
412Please respect copyright.PENANAzmvuutS5Ft
It is meant for hiding purpose, and survival. That's why the housing mirrors basic apartment.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAUdfvOX3iPw
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.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAKxOX8NZJCD
So cowardly of me!
412Please respect copyright.PENANAJYT41hQCwZ
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.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAV23UMuxumN
Callen!
412Please respect copyright.PENANA8Y43y3QFcc
I left him alone too!
412Please respect copyright.PENANAhLqYbga53D
Though I saw him fight back fiercely. It still doesn't verify he will be back alive.
412Please respect copyright.PENANA0sy3jckF8z
My knees collapsed and I stifled a frustrated scream.
I hadn’t noticed the goose bumps creeping on my arms until now,
412Please respect copyright.PENANA9Q10gNskIM
Water! I need water..My throat burnt of tortured thirst.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAWyCmMv2qlf
I felt too weak to walk up to the fridge and instead rolled and rocked myself from side to side.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAu9vqRdbdaY
I laid there for what felt like hours.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAW7fZPeDD8w
Weak...
412Please respect copyright.PENANArbdcFhn0NB
Powerless...
412Please respect copyright.PENANAjwIyRMP5B3
Unwanted...
412Please respect copyright.PENANAod1B6rhnTa
Nuisance...
412Please respect copyright.PENANAjLNJvy887j
I had decreased to a sobbing mess for I had no more energy or water left to shed.
412Please respect copyright.PENANArtQV23Yq1x
I was suffocating. I searched the walls to find only one small window at the ceiling, just like a cell. Rest was packed stuffed.
412Please respect copyright.PENANAxRlWiYWToi
Now that I analyse closely,
412Please respect copyright.PENANAcyLsXNUyHo
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.
