“Why? What’s wrong?” Victor asked, his voice cracking at the end.

It hardly took Victor a moment to realize the gravity of the situation before he himself went ahead to help the doctors shift Nicole to the ship.

“Sir, you can not come inside.” One of the doctors said once they were inside the ship, ready to operate on Nicole.

“I…” Victor wanted to speak up when another doctor spoke up.

“You can stay if you want Sir. But watching someone you care about being incised by blade is not a scene you ever want to see.” Second doctor said politely, one of his hand carrying scalpel, signalling he was about to start the surgery.

Victor knew he couldn’t dare to see whatever was to come next as he was very sensitive about everything which involved Nicole. But he knew it would be even more worse if he was to go outside and wait for the doctors to update him on Nicole’s condition.

“I will leave once the bullet is removed.” Victor said in a monotonous voice, toughening his heart for whatever was to come next.

With that the doctors signalled each other before eventually starting the surgery.

*JASON’s TEAM*

“Is that the psycho’s palace?” Rose asked in a low voice to not alert anyone.

“Hmmm.” Jason simply replied with a hum, planning his next strategy.

“I have heard that the psycho lives on the topmost floor of this palace. Should I try checking the security there?” This time Harry asked.

“No. We will be searching for the base. As much as I know, he would have hidden Diamond at his base which would be the safest place in this palace. So we need to search for that.” Jason replied precisely, his intentions crystal clear.

He was going to rescue Diamond first, and then take care of the Professor.

Rose and Harry nodded, both of them agreeing with Jason’s plan.

Harry instantly took out his laptop, his strongest weapon, checking through the base’s location and its security system.

“They do have underground places, but I can not access them no matter what.” Harry said, his voice though plain, not hiding how much frustrated and disappointed he was in himself.

“Professor himself would have paid extra care towards those areas. You don’t have to feel sad, Harry. Professor’s hacking skill level is no joke, that’s no lie. So let’s just search for it ourselves.” Jason said, his statement making Harry’s mood much better.

With that, the team was once again back in high spirits, ready to break through professor’s palace and finish this battle for once and for all.

*ANDREW’s TEAM*

Andrew was slowly stepping ahead, defending and attacking quiet well. Afterall he had already faced one of the three black markets alone many times.

Thus even though he was attacking the professor for the very first time, he knew what all he was going to face, and was mentally prepared for the same.

“Left.” He said in a low voice before his teammate shot towards the same direction, taking down one more.

“Take shelter.” Andrew this time shouted himself after taking down another member from the enemy side.

And the very next second, a team of more than thirty men launched themselves at Andrew’s team, suddenly turning the whole situation upside down.

“F*ck!!” Andrew cursed at the sudden twist, but still remained focused for the next blows.

With one signal from him, there was thundering of bullets from their side, receiving the same in exchange from their enemies as well.

“Keep firing. We can not let them reach us.” Andrew ordered his team through the bluetooth.

And with that a battlefield was created at that very moment, with bullets being fired from both sides, men getting injured yet not backing down, and instead ferociously getting back on their feet, stronger and braver.

This scene, which would be forever imprinted in their minds, no matter whatever battles they were to fight in future.

*PROFESSOR*

“Andrew has entered from the right side of the palace. Satan cleared the front soldiers and joined hands with their left team, both of them entering together from the left side now.” Lieutenant from the Professor’s side informed him of the latest moves.

“What happened to his sister?” Professor asked monotonously.

“She was shot. Black dragon from the Black command rescued her and took her back to their ship.” Lieutenant replied.

“Not bad.” Professor said while nodding his head, his emotions excellently hidden.

“Any news-” The professor was still asking when the monitor in front of him beeped.

“Someone has hacked through the defences. Good. This is what I was waiting for. Finally my good friend, Black thunder has arrived. Though he, as always, is using his mind games, which once again would fail against me.” Professor said confidently as a merciless smile bloomed on his face.

“Check for CCTVs near the areas opening from the jungle on both the right and left side. They have successfully dodged oir stupid men on both gates. Which means they chose their own death, my lovely poison jungle as their attacking route.” The Professor ordered carelessly.

“Yes Professor.” One of the high ranking soldiers kneeled and left in a hurry.

“Send another team to tighten the security around Hazel. I want zero mistakes. No compromise over her security.” Professor said in a chilled voice, showing how much Kizy’s security mattered to him.

“Yes Professor.” The lieutenant replied before signalling another high ranking soldier who was supposed to stay here and defend the Professor.

The soldier instantly left with a team of men, rushing towards Kizy’s location.

“Inform him now. My ace card.” The professor said before laughing like a maniac, terrorising his own men to the core.
