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.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAKlnJKvmTY1
I feel sick.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAPTwsj8tyOg
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,
380Please respect copyright.PENANAtOtNLdkwZn
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?
380Please respect copyright.PENANAvKVyGqcrh7
The other two were left behind in the previous vehicle. I alone occupied the whole backseat.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAs3KxLRnB1E
Finally I had guts to look out the window,
380Please respect copyright.PENANA3ByZouXh4j
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.
380Please respect copyright.PENANArjxPco9S6x
A garage, it is.
380Please respect copyright.PENANA7UaUxWbK4X
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.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAvSd4CYSlnk
Everywhere armed men dressed in similar uniforms, expressionless faces at every corner of the hallway lined in alert.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAYLJRcbziro
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.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAfKwoMsK1Ry
He swiped his card. The door clicked open revealing couch on the edge of the opposite wall, I stepped inside the threshold,
380Please respect copyright.PENANAF5baiNsDTg
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,
380Please respect copyright.PENANABvXFLoNqlF
I waited, there were many,
380Please respect copyright.PENANAG167SzNvNj
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,
380Please respect copyright.PENANA9idxIFgOcW
From inside one shouted. "Clear.",
380Please respect copyright.PENANATb52FltGkv
They had dispersed into each room, and hallway,
380Please respect copyright.PENANAJv05ktju2k
From every corner one after other each one of them reported from their respective locations, "clear, here."
380Please respect copyright.PENANAK4itbp2uc5
Closed the door "Clear."
380Please respect copyright.PENANABtKbCqC1kN
"Clear."
380Please respect copyright.PENANASxCrk3D4ZL
From upstairs too, "clear, here."
Which meant there's another floor here.
380Please respect copyright.PENANABCHloC4DRQ
Nothing was left for surprise or shock.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAsA8aAQ7JV7
The boys left just as they came.
380Please respect copyright.PENANA00vBYenfkN
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.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAeUCejIQKAv
I entered the bedroom. It was basic, not luxurious, just for staying a night or two,
380Please respect copyright.PENANAgLH9isjQdi
It is meant for hiding purpose, and survival. That's why the housing mirrors basic apartment.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAt20QInbeTr
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.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAhCFimlf2vw
So cowardly of me!
380Please respect copyright.PENANAi1EgRi7g95
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.
380Please respect copyright.PENANApdu9fuIsu2
Callen!
380Please respect copyright.PENANANR9PsXiuDA
I left him alone too!
380Please respect copyright.PENANAEdy1cmP0dq
Though I saw him fight back fiercely. It still doesn't verify he will be back alive.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAkUI4ryBMVr
My knees collapsed and I stifled a frustrated scream.
I hadn’t noticed the goose bumps creeping on my arms until now,
380Please respect copyright.PENANADuyvVvtXAV
Water! I need water..My throat burnt of tortured thirst.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAvvc2xzTIwD
I felt too weak to walk up to the fridge and instead rolled and rocked myself from side to side.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAtN32SzwURx
I laid there for what felt like hours.
380Please respect copyright.PENANATiDOL6PsRF
Weak...
380Please respect copyright.PENANAoATpAzfGhn
Powerless...
380Please respect copyright.PENANATr0mIots4v
Unwanted...
380Please respect copyright.PENANAUTr90h7K8c
Nuisance...
380Please respect copyright.PENANAWm6Cux6Kon
I had decreased to a sobbing mess for I had no more energy or water left to shed.
380Please respect copyright.PENANAlI3LsdapaG
I was suffocating. I searched the walls to find only one small window at the ceiling, just like a cell. Rest was packed stuffed.
380Please respect copyright.PENANANE1kLC6D7c
Now that I analyse closely,
380Please respect copyright.PENANA7jwftS0naa
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.
