The Four Mafia Men and Their Prize

Chapter 83

83 – Time to Play

Jason POV

We are standing at the base of a vast mountain range. We walked 10 miles from the main road. We

drove about two hours after a three–hour plane ride on our superjet. That baby is like a Concord, built

for speed. We chose an airport further away from our destination to hopefully not alert the scum to our

arrival. This is his turf. No telling how many spies he has or what pockets be has lined.

Waiting at the coordinates given, we let out an exasperated huff. “Where the fuck is this person?”

Charlie asks.

“I don’t know!” I exclaim. I checked my Apple Watch that Ben programmed again. We are where we are

supposed to be.

The men are all taking a break. Many are sitting on the ground, leaning against the many trees lining

the base of the giant mountains in front of us. The air is thinner and much colder. The sun is almost set.

The blueish glow before the black sky appears against the thick tree line casts an eerie feeling and yet

still seems tranquil

We continue to catch our breath and rest our bodies until the sun tas set fully and the blackness of right

now covers the land. We all perk up when we hear a thick rumble sound. There are light vibrations

under my feet. I look at the rocks in front of me only to watch them move. A large cutout of stone

swings out toward us. A fucking wall! A real secret fucking wall in the side of a mountain! The tiny sliver

of a nerd in me is all giddy inside, but I mask it with my stoic face. 1 hear Ben say in my earpiece “I

don’t care how we do it, but I want one.” Thy guys and I all chuckled lowly and I silently agreed.

We see a dark tall figure emerge, cast in a shadow, and all our guns are instantly pulled and pointed at

this lone dark figure. Those men that were on the ground, are all now standing in position, their

weapons trained for the kill shot.

“Woah, gentlemen!” The deep voice proclaims. We can see his hands up by his head in a form of

surrender. “I come in peace!” He exclaims and chuckles lightly to himself.

Charlie barks out an order and a few of our men in the Delta team go to this man and pat him down

before bringing him to us. The cover of the night makes it difficult for us to see him properly until he is

right in front of us. The glow of the moon helps illuminate the surrounding space.

He looks oddly familiar, but I can’t place him.

“You know, if you look closely, you can see the Orion star system just above us” the man calmly says.

This is the guy. That is the code we were given. I say back “And over there is the Sagittarius

constellation, but I prefer to gaze at the Big Dipper.” Finishing my words with a smirk on my face.

The guy smiles and extends his hand for me to shake it. “Im Jason,” I sternly say to him. This is Charlie

and Kal” 1 point to my best friends. The guys also shake his hand.

“Glad you could make it. I wish we could stay and chat, but we have to hurry though. Aurora is in

trouble.” he says quickly and instructs us to follow him. That sets my insides into an inferno of rage

while we enter silently into the cave, our weapons drawn at our sides. “By the way, I’m Stephen.”

In the early mist of the moming, still covered in darkness about 7 hours later….

We are about 10000 meters from the main house. You can see the top of the massive concrete castle

building peeking through the dense forest canopy, lights blazing in the distance, letting us know it is

surely occupied.

Once we reached the “safe zone, our teams split into three groups. I have the Alpha team and we are

situated on the northeast side. Charlie took the Delta team to the northwest. These teams are the

sweepers, our brute strength force. Kai took the Omega Team to the south. Kai has just 6 men with

him, but they are by far the deadliest mercenary SOBS we have ever seen. They are part of his team. If

he’s not with us or Aurora, he is with that lot. They are just as sick and twisted as he is, but they do

incredible work. Kai calls them his ninjas and it fits.

We have been waiting for about an hour now under the canopy of trees, while Kai’s team recons and

sets the various distractions. One of Kai’s men is charged with getting into the main house’s electrical

grid system and setting a virus for Ben. Oscar is the scariest sneakiest bastard. If anyone could do it, it

would be Oscar. Kai found Oscar during a small stint in a Russian Black Site about ten years ago.

Oscar has pure muscle and average height, but he has incredible strength and exceptional fighting

skills. He is the only one who has ever been able to beat Kai in hand–to–hand

combat.

We made sure to drill into all of our men that if they get a chance to rescue Aurora, to do it and get her

out and get her home. No stopping, no looking back, no matter the circumstances. We are all

expendable, including Charlie, Kai, and L. We will either be leaving with Aurora in our arms or our

bodies will be lying on the ground, riddled with bullets. There is no alternative.

When Stephen ushered us into the tunnel a few hours ago, there was a fucking train track and open

box cars that silently took all of us through the mountain. Took about two hours, going at full speed to

take us through the man- made tunnels under the mountain. It was designed for special transport. A

great hiding spot too. Stephen was noticeably quiet for most of the trek. We all were.

We were all suspicious at first, but something in my gut told me he could be trusted. I always trust my

gut. He was the one who sent us the detailed blueprints of the Marco compound. It was in that letter we

received a few weeks ago. He included the map of traps and he agreed to get us to the safe zone.

He had said in his letter he wanted out of his contract and to live far away from the life he had. We

would help him with that new life when we get out of here. It was an easy exchange. We of course did

our investigations and found what little information we could come up with was indeed correct.

We still kept our eyes open, and our weapons were always ready h by our side just in case

After we exited the mountain, there were going to be 12 sectors that we had to pass by, each with its

own security system and traps. Charlie released a few of Ben’s black drones in the air once we cleared

the base of the mountain. These drones have a special reflector on them that helps them be

camouflaged even in the daytime. These drones will give a boost to our systems and allow Ben and his

team to access the security systems. If we didn’t have these bots, it would fry all of our gear once we

set foot in the first ring of traps.

We went through three EMP field grids, two actual mine traps, and four inferred sensor fields that held

guns, poisoned. arrows and toxic gas. There was a man–made stream that reminded me of a lazy river

at a resort and it went around the whole compound. Stephen had noted that it was laced with a special

knockout drug and two other levels of traps with a variety of cages and pits that were almost primal. If

any trap was set off, an alarm would sound.

There was a special path that wouldn’t set off any of the traps but it was very specific to avoid the

cameras and so we had to follow in a single file life.

Ben was able to hack into the alarm system and outlier security feeds once the drones were released.

We planned to expose the traps so it would no longer work and then move on. Even though the traps

were sophisticated, they had to be manually reset every time. If we needed to flee into the woods, we Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

didn’t need to worry about more obstacles. If there was a manual switch, Kai’s team took care of it

before we moved on. Once we went through the last EMP field, we were considered safe. The next

section about five thousand meters ahead was his armed patrol or zone two and then the warehouses

and his castle where Aurora was being held were in zone one.

He left almost two hours ago now.

I hear a static coming through my earpiece. Kai’s deadly voice on the other end says proudly “Alpha,

Omega is set. Ready or not, here we come!”

Excellent! Time to play.
