CHAPTER 119 Saving Sebastian

I was
as speeding through the highway like my life depended on it. I didn’t have to change in New Salem, so I sent word to the Blood Disciples in Mandan to have my provisions waiting
for me in Bismarck.
After instructing our men in Mandan, I called Cristos.
“I’m currently on my way to Bismarck. Dom called me for help,” I said.
“What do you need?” Cristos asked. This is what I loved about the guys. We were always in
sync.
“I need you to send me a satellite image as well as a blueprint of the mansion at Huff Hills straight away,” I replied as I drove. Thank G od there wasn’t any traffic.
“Sure thing,” Cristos said. “Sending now.” My phone pinged, notifying me the data I
requested had arrived. “Do you need us to-”
“No. Pete may have someone watching Virtue’s every move,” I said, cutting him off. “He’s somewhere close. I can sense it. Right now, the best thing for you and her is to stay in New Salem and stick together. But I do need Dina. Have Lou pick her up.”
“Dina’s already on the phone with Lou,” Cristos said. “Virtue and I will be at the pub until al
of this is over.”
“Do not leave Virtue’s side, Chip. Whatever you do, guard her with your life,” I instructed. “And make sure Dina has an earpiece. I need to communicate with her.”
“Copy that,” Cristos said before hanging up.
After exiting the highway into Bismarck, I stopped at the nearest gas station. I instructed one of my men to meet me there. I couldn’t bring my car. Someone from New Salem would easily recognize me. Plus, I needed to change.
As always, waiting for me was a white service van. It was a good disguise if ever I needed to stop and install a camera.
I opened the back doors of the van, hopped in, and began undressing. Everything I needed,/7
CHAPTER 119 Saving Sebastian
From the gas station, we sped through the city to the looming hills which housed several of the affluent people of Bismarck. Pete’s mansion was located near the top of the highest hill which was a great vantage point if I were inside, but a huge problem for me outside. I needed to find higher ground.
Adjacent to Pete’s mansion was another sprawling mansion about a quarter of a mile away. If I could just get on top of the roof, I could get a good view.
Time to call Dina.
“Yep?” She greeted me.
“Location?” I asked.
“Sitting behind a speeding white van with all the hardware and software I need.
“Excellent. First, I need you to cut all CCTV footage from the whole area of Huff Hills,” I said. I heard her mumble ‘okay’ followed by the distinct sound of her fingers tapping on her keyboard. “Then, I need you to call the people at the Clark Residence and tell them to leave their house. Check if they use gas to cook. If they do, say your system has detected a leak and they need to evacuate the premises.”
There was a whole lot of clicking and mumbling before she replied.
“Yep, they use gas,” Dina said. “I’ve hacked into their security system and moni
by CCTV. I’ll call you once they’re out.”

“Good and make it quick,” I said. “I need that house. Once I get Sebastian out, I’m
up on top of their roof and see who comes after. Tell them to stay out for at least se hours. And Dina put on your earpiece. No need to call, just speak to me through coms
“Alrighty,” she said and hung up.
“Our men are already at the foot of the hills,” my driver said as I got off the phone with Dina.
“How many?” I said, putting on my earpiece.
“Three groups of five. Chef is leading them,” he said chuckling. I smiled. Chef hated guns, but loved knives. I decided to get in contact with him.
“Chef, come in. This is X,” I said through our coms.

“Have you and our men intercept. We need to draw them outside,” I replied.
“Copy.”
I glanced at my driver. “Speed up.
At the foot of the hills, we sped upward, swerving our way through the slopes. I took out my binoculars and noticed smoke coming from the house. Sebastian rigged the house with explosives which meant the two cars heading towards him must be the cavalry.
As we got closer, I could already hear the gunshots. I switched coms to speak with Dina.
“Dina, divert all 911 calls from this area,” I said.
“Already did,” Dina said. Good girl.
“And has the Clark family left their house yet?” asked while putting my backpack on and placing the strap of my sn iper rifle over my shoulder.

“They’re scrambling gunshots are scaring the sh it out of them.”
“Of course,” I replied. “Now, for your specialty. I need you to cause a black out.” She giggled.
“Power grid will be offline in three… two… one,” she counted down.
All the lights from all the homes and buildings in the area went out including all the st lights. I readied my night vision goggles. It was pitch black outside.
I tapped my driver’s shoulder once I saw the spark of lights from the gunfire. “Stop here. Park the van in the forest and if anyone else comes, inform us.” I opened the back door and jumped out.
I lowered my night-vision goggles over my eyes.
“S, what’s your status?” I asked through coms.
“Alive. But there are several men shooting at us from outside,” he answered. “One is hidden among the bushes at the front porch and there are two at the back.”
I moved my head from side to side and cracked my neck muscles. Time for me to go save Sebastian.

I dashed through the forest heading towards the sound of gunfire until I reached a clearing near the cars of my fellow Blood Disciples. I heard a bullet w hiz by and decided to shield.
behind a huge tree from the ensuing gunfight.

Obviously, Pete’s men came prepared with their night-vision goggles. I could tell because their aim was still pretty good.
It was time to make things interesting.
First, a distraction.
Dina, I need the power back on in this sector and this sector alone,” I said through my communication device while I took out my military gas mask from my backpack. I took off my night vision goggles and placed the mask over my head.
“You never make things easy, do you, be back on

The streetlights fronting the gates of Huff Hills mansion suddenly came back on causing e was stupi
tupid Pete’s men to howl from the glare. I counted seven of them. Luckily for us, one enough to come out of hiding while removing his goggles. The Blood Disciples shot at him from all directions. One down.
His teammates quickly aimed their weapons at us and began shooting like a bunch of cr lu natics trying to hopelessly avenge their comrade’s death. Apparently, they had a lot
ammo…
But did they bring masks?
Time to find out.
I took out a smoke grenade from a side pocket of my bag.
“Units, I’m popping smoke,” I warned. When I called them earlier, I told them to bring a list of provisions, one of the items a gas mask.
Still shielded by the tree, I popped the canister open and threw it underneath one of the cars blocking the gates.
Smoke quickly filled the air. Without masks, the hired guns quickly moved away from the smoke, coughing. A few came out with their hands above their heads, in an act of surrender.

“Approach with caution,” I instructed my team, taking my gun out and walking towards the one who was closest to me. He was on his hands and knees coughing. Using the butt of my gun, I hit him on the back of the head rendering him unconscious. We’ll take this one in for questioning.
From the corner of my eye, I saw one of his buddies desperately trying to aim his gun at me while wiping his eyes on his sleeves. I quickly raised my gun and shot him in the head. Never hesitate. Two down.
“X, we got this,” Chef said. I glanced at his direction and saw the four other hired professionals already lying on the ground.
“Search their pockets and their cars,” I instructed, then pointed to the one I had knocked out. “Keep this one alive for questioning and kill the rest.” I gestured to Chef. “Chef, you’re coming with me.”
The gray smoke was clearing up a bit as we entered the gates.
“S, we’ve entered the compound. Standby for rescue,” I said, yanking Chef to a nearby tree at the sound of sudden gunfire. As we took cover, I pointed to the lone shooter hiding in the bushes surrounding the porch.
He nodded his head, gestured he would be going the other direction and took out a knife. I nodded my head in understanding. He needed a distraction.
“Hurry, X. I’m wounded,” Sebastian said, coughing.
F uck!
“Dina, contact HQ at Mandan and tell the Doc to have the infirmary ready. We’ll be there in ten minutes give or take,” I said through coms. Doc used to have a clinical practice until he was sued for malpractice. Now, he treats us sc umbags instead.
“Got it.”
After removing my mask, I moved to another huge tree which was a bit closer to the porch. I aimed my gun at the flower pot above the shooter’s head and shot a
at it.
Instead of aiming inside the house, his gunfire was now redirected at me. He was using a powerful assault rifle. I could hear the bark of the tree cracking with every shot he made.
While he was busy shooting the tree, I screwed on my silencer. All we needed to do was wait?
CHAPTER 119 Saving Sebastian
until he ran out of ammo.
Suddenly he stopped. I peeked around the trunk of the tree, aiming my gun towards the shooter. However, Chef got to him first. I watched with satisfaction as the a sshole fell to the ground with a knife stuck at the back of his head.
“Chef, there are two more out back, I said through coms.
“I’ll take care of those as sholes,” Chef said. “You tend to Domenico.”
I ran towards the huge gaping hole at the front of the house, crouching low. Aside from the shooter with the knife behind his head, there was another laying on the ground. Before entering the house, I shot him in the head. Just needed to make sure he was dead.
“S, where are you?” I whispered.
“Kitchen,” he replied, then paused as a bullet wh izzed by him. “Hurry.”
I silently prayed Sebastian wasn’t badly wounded.
Boss Domenico would definitely catch the first flight here and kill me himself if anything
bad were to happen to his one and only son.
I quickly crept towards the back of the house, making my way to the black and white marb
kitchen island.
For an old house, the inside was modern with an open floor plan. I was traversing the din area and was just about to reach the kitchen side of the island when the sounds of heavy footsteps on the wooden deck of the backyard made me take cover against the living side.
They were like co ckroaches. There were so many of them.
I could hear Sebastian’s labored breathing and the scuff sounds-from his shoes as he struggled to move away from the owners of those footsteps.
I needed to come up with a plan.
“Who are you?” A man asked. I turned my head to peek around the corner and noticed the night vision goggles over his eyes.
I moved my head back and scanned the dining area for a light switch.

I smiled.
I love it when a plan comes together.
