Pov-Elysa
*bang* *bang* *bang*
"Hey, call some backups," said the man to his comrade while firing his gun at a window.
"I'm trying, how did they track this place down anyways?" Said the other guy while dialling someone.
Looking at them panicking makes me smile a bit. That's what you get from disturbing me.
I am right now on the second floor of the building with the last two guys just hiding behind the pillars. The SF can kill those two with no difficulty but if they manage to call for back up things might change for a bit.
I planned to let them call and then ambush their reinforcements.
The SF that was raining the building with bullets and bombs stopped for a moment which meant that they are ready to infiltrate. It's a pretty reckless plan but there are only two people here excluding me so it doesn't matter that much.
Raining the building with bullets is also not good because you may never know if there are any hostages around it.
"They- they're not responding," said the guy with no more hope.
"Shit, they abandoned us. Let's go to the bac-"
*bang*
Someone fired the gun from the stairs aiming at the guy's heart making him dead in an instant.
"Chris!"
"Don't you dare move, you might see him on the other side," The man spoke while releasing a murderous aura making the enemy freeze on spot.
The man is bald and has an SF uniform that is only for the commanders. If I remember correctly, his name should be Gerald Chrome.
"Yo Gerald, long time no see!" I said to him as I reveal myself while also cancelling my aura and talent.
"How did you got abducted by these people?" Said Gerald with genuine confusion.
"I let them do it. I thought I could destroy their place in one single sweep. It was a bit disappointing though."
"That's a bit reckless of you." He said with a monotonous voice.
"I don't think it was that bad. By the way, how did y'all find me?" Finding me this fast is a bit suspicious as if someone put a tracker...
"A specific someone said that he wanted to put a tracker on you In case something might happen."
Okay, that's something my big brother would do. His relationship with me is a Lil bit complicated. Sometimes he acts overprotective and there are also times when he would even forgets about my existence.
I guess the latter can be excused mainly because of his condition where he forgets random things and remembers random things.
"Are there any other hostages," he said as he looks around the building while frowning.
"I only sensed four people around this building and those people are criminals and dead. There is that one guy though that said something along the lines of a <prison>."
Gerald went into deep thinking while I was just waiting for him to say something.
"Captain! It seems like there are no people in the building anymore. There are also no valuable things here and there are also no signs of reinforcements from the enemies coming." Said a random SF member after coming from the stairs.
"All of you dismissed. Try to hurry back to the city, something might happen." He said with a commanding voice.
"Yes sir!"
He rushed out of this room as if he was not there at all.
"Where are we by the way?" I asked simply because I didn't manage to use aura when I was asleep.
"We are 436km away from st Louise city and are right now on the outskirts of the forest of Quirra." Huh?

"How long I have been out?"
"6 hours. Something is definitely going on. We should also hurry back, This is might be a distraction!" What? 6 hours?!! That's not normal.
I looked at him with a confused expression. Distraction? What do you mean by that?
"I'll explain while we are in the car."
He then rushed outside of the building running hurriedly.
I then also rushed outside just to see abandoned buildings and trees. There were also armoured cars and vehicles surrounding the whole place while some are already going to the city.
"Everyone, move out! Don't you all dare idle around here, something might happen in st Louise!" He shouted orders like a fierce lion that people don't want to mess with.
I also moved to a nearby armoured car where Gerald went.
"All things ready sir! We will approach the city in about 5 hours." Said the driver.
"Make it four," Gerald said threateningly.
"Yes sir!" He said as he started the engine.
"Now tell me what's going on?" I said with confusion.
"I think someone will try to do something in the city," he said as he went into a thinking position again. I still don't get it though.
"The whole fiasco of you being kidnapped is just a distraction for the enemy to infiltrate the city. There was probably no reason for you to be kidnapped other than your fake persona of a rich girl which is highly unlikely because they were too under-equipped to do it. They either have to be very desperate or this whole thing is connected to something bigger," he said while his eyes are closed seemingly just thinking.
"The conclusion?" I asked mainly because I still don't get it.
"The group behind your kidnapping knows your real identity and relationships with people. They only kidnapped you because of your twisted personality and your obsession with having a normal life while trying to be a mercenary making it easier to lure you outside the city."
"What if all of that is just a weird conclusion you just jumped in?" I said with a serious voice. I still don't know what the fuck he is saying but let's go with the flow.
"Then nothing could be done. I'm just assuming the worst-case scenario that might happen. You were also knocked out for six hours which is highly unlikely due to your training meaning that they prepared a strong poison which can kill a normal human which also means that they know how strong you are." I'm getting dizzy at this point.
"Well, sorry for the whole explanation. All you need to know is that they might do something in the city while we are out of it." So that means I was dancing in the palm of the enemy huh? An unpleasant feeling as usual.
*bump*
The armoured car is right now going through a whole forest because there are no roads. Maybe this is also why the car is moving so slow at 90km per hour.
*bump*
"Hey Gerald, do you know someone named Frater?" I said with curiosity because whenever I think about it, I never heard of that name or nickname before.
Gerald stared at me with a scary expression as if his seeing through my soul. Did I say something wrong?
"I... Never heard of that name before. Was it connected to this event?" He said with the same expression.
"I guess you could say so. The guys who kidnapped me were saying that they were going to sell me to the Frater guy."
He only nods and went back to his deep thinking.
Gerald is the kind of guy that can be easily misunderstood as a scary monster. Knowing him for about 10 years, that wasn't the case at all. He is just a serious guy who will take everything seriously.
Everything should still be under control if we could reach the city in time and save it from any possible tragedies.
...
Wait a minute, why did I go from stalking my brother to this situation again? Wasn't my next mission should be next month or so? I have gotten so into this that I forgot that this wasn't my responsibility at all.
"*sigh* whatever," I murmured. Hopefully, this all ends by tomorrow.
