Chapter 545: The Sound Of Freedom

He already knew that this would not end well for any of them. They had to respond fast before they were too late. He could already see that the trio was trapped and had nowhere to go. 

Once the guards caught them, it would be harder for his team to get them back. There was a high chance that the couple might get hurt in the process if that ever happened. He had to think and act fast.

"Men, we need a diversion, quick." He spoke to his mouthpiece, making sure Tim was also aware of his plan. "Be ready because we are going in hot." It was a signal that they were about to go to battle. 

They had no more choice but to make their presence known to their enemies. Either he started the fight, or his team would be on the defense. 

However, he regarded that being offensive would seem to be a better choice at this point. He preferred the element of surprise to be on their side. 

Two of his men carefully worked their way to the next building. Once in position, they gave the signal that they were ready. The team leader did not wait for Tim this time. 

He was calling the shot, and everybody knew it, even Tim, as he had remained silent. The other group was about to intercept the trio. It was the time to strike. 

He raised his fist in the air and started counting with his fingers. At the last count, everybody moved into position, ready to intercept the enemies. 

"Take the shot." He ordered on his mouthpiece while the rest of the team moved to a better position.

The two who hid at the side of the building made the first shots. Two men in the opposing group abruptly dropped dead to the ground with bullets on their heads and blood gushing on the pavement. 

The incident surprised the other group. Some immediately scrambled for cover, then the rest raised their guns in the direction of the shot, looking for the gunman.

Then, one by one, they opened fire on his men who were hiding behind the building. He was sure his men were secured in their hiding place, so he was not worried about them.

"Are you boys ok?" He asked his men, and they responded affirmatively.

He was glad he had accomplished his first objective without losing his men. He had diverted their attention away from the three, who were now safely hiding behind the bushes. 

The three must have heard the gunshots and alerted them to keep themselves away from the patrol guards. At least that was one problem averted, for now, he thought. 

"Men, prepare yourself because more are coming." He instructed as he took charge of their next attack. "We have to keep the attention to us so that the prince and the princess can safely escape."

He had to change the plan again. Instead of going after the couple, he would have to protect them. He would provide them a clear path to escape while they kept the enemies busy.

He just had to trust the big man to help them find a safe hiding place in the meantime. They would just have to look for them when this was all over.

"Sir, more are coming on our left." One of his men informed him.

He started shooting at the enemies firing at his men and got one of them, but there was more to go. 

He noticed that the commotion had alerted more of the men inside the building as they hurriedly joined the battle. He had no choice now but for his team to face them head-on.

As expected, they were outnumbered, but he was not afraid because he knew that he had capable men at his side. They would fight honorably and with courage. Even fear of death would not stop them.

At the same time, he believed that they were better skilled in fighting than these common criminals. He was confident that they could tackle the task despite their slight disadvantage in numbers.

He, once again, glanced at the trio who had safely moved towards the fence. He only hoped that the big man knew what he was doing.

"Men, let us pick up the pace and wrap this up quick. I need a long bath soon." He said confidently on his mouthpiece, encouraging his men to fight without fear.

He could hear some of them laugh at what he said. But he knew that it helped them boost their morals somehow. In situations like this, it was one of the things that could help them win the battle. It was knowing that they had each other's back.

On the fence, while the place was in chaos. The three walked closer to the barricade that hindered them from escaping. It was a high barbed wire fence with spikes on the top portion.

"What happened?" Dani asked Samson, referring to the gunfire. Samson only shrugged his shoulder, having no idea if the fighting was about them or something else.

"Maybe they had discovered that we had escaped, but then again, why would they be shooting at each other." Dani again voiced her speculation as they continued to walk along the fence.

"Where are we going anyway?" Alex finally spoke up after conserving her energy on the task of limping to their freedom. Luckily, his feet were not damaged by the beating. He was still able to walk using his two feet.

However, his chest was hurting every time he forced it, causing him a hard time moving around without help. He had to rely on Dani's support so he could move a little faster, or he would not be moving at all.

"I have a car on the other side, waiting for us. I also arranged a small cottage where we can hide for the night or two until we can arrange for your rescue." Samson informed them as he continued to guide them away from the fighting.

"How do you intend for me to climb this fence?" Alex asked, still skeptical of his plans as he scanned the high wires and considered his condition.

"I guess you just have to fly," Samson answered him sarcastically, getting slightly irritated that the man was still doubting his help.

But before Alex could respond again, Samson stopped abruptly and showed them an opening in the corner of the fence. He had cut them earlier, creating an exit. 

When Samson pushed the wire, it created a small space where they could squeeze their body out. It was big enough for each one of them to fit. 

"Will this do?" Samson asked, hoping that he had proven his point.

"Thank you so much for doing this for us." Dani once again told him for probably the hundredth time.

It would have to be a tight squeeze for Samson due to his bulky body. While for Alex, it would be a difficult one. But it was better than climbing the fence. Dani had no problem since he was petite and was still in good shape.

As they got through the barrier, they quickly moved out of the open area and walked toward the car that Samson talked about. Once inside, the three finally had felt a lot better.

The sound of the engine was music to their ears. It was an old car that probably had seen its better days.. But the loud engine only signified one thing, the sound of freedom.
