Chapter 46 - New Order IV

Everyone on the Shadow Unit receives Eve's report they have at most 15 minutes, to clean the outside of the Spider headquarters, but even with their enhance strength that's going to be impossible unless they all separated and even if they did it will still be cutting it close.

so Ruby made a decision she separate them. she ordered that in 10 minutes everyone need to go meet up in the courtyard.

Arc didn't talk all this time he just watch, there's nothing much he can do it's his decision to take on The Spider, and the Shadow Units is risking their lives to fulfill it, he watches with a clenched fist and Tiffa and Jarvis can feel the tension in the air they can feel the nervousness of their Boss.

suddenly BANG!!

Arc stood up.

what happens? arc ask

Miller is down. enemy target is in... 98% chance its a sniper using Super high caliber rifles got him. said Jem

'it's in a blind spot said' Ruby

BANG! that's a gunshot give me a report! shouted Beru

sir, we didn't see anything on the monitor. no guards reported an enemy...

that's weird send an alarm said Beru

but sir...

-I'll take full responsibility issue a code 1- said. Beru

right away sir..

suddenly all alarm on the headquarters rang up.

-I gathered all of you to talk about the possible war with Morgan Family-. said the Head of Spider

-Head can we communicate with the Morgan Family, we have to be sure before we go war.- said one of the elders

-We have been trying to communicate with them for quite some time but attempt ends in failure and the men we sent never reported back.- said another elder

-that's right I wouldn't gather you here without any reason, if we can avoid a war with the Morgan Family we would have, but as you can see the Morgan Family clearly doesn't want to communicate with us.- said the Head of the spider

-Head how sure are we that all this is really the Morgan Family doing and not a third party,- said one of the leaders

-hmm, explain,- said the Head of Spider.

-United Government is far away from Eastern Emporium where the Morgan Family is located if they are going to war it is more likely they would go for Death Crows or 7th hell than with us because they are much closer to them, another reason is that they will leave themselves open if they send most of their forces to attack us, I feel that we are being set up, of course, Head I don't have any proof of this- explain by one of the Leader

-I can see your point and in some way, I agree, but as I have said before that's only if we assume that the Morgan Family is on the same level of power than us.- said another elder

they began to bicker with each other...

-Enough!- shouted the Head of Spider

-we are getting nowhere our enemy might already be in our backyard it doesn't matter whether its the Morgan Family or another what is clear is someone is targeting us and it might be stronger than us so my question is what can we do about it..- said the Head of Spider

-Head I can pledge 80% of my forces to war the rest will guard our bases- said one of the leaders

-I can send 60% head as we can't leave our base in Jacks city undefended especially since we are still in war with the local force there,- said one of the elders

one by one the pledge the forces they control to war, meaning their forces will under the headquarters in the duration of the war the Head smiles we he heard them...

suddenly alarm sounded.. everyone stops talking

give me a report! shouted the head

a few seconds later a lady dressed in black robe with a white plain mask appeared before the Head and whispered something.

Beru huh... said the head

nobody talks they just waited for the Head to address them again.

connect me to him said the Head of Spider

a huge projection appeared before everyone...

Beru what's going on? ask the Head

Head a gunshot is heard outside but our monitor didn't say anything and no one report any abnormality said Beru respectfully

But you still issue code 1 so you must have a reason for it correct? said the head

I have suspected that all our monitoring equipment is being hacked and my guess is that our enemy is already on our doorstep said Beru

you do know what kind of equipment we have do you really think it's possible to hack it without us knowing? ask the Head calmly

of course boss I understand it more than anyone it might be impossible Head but I still stand in my decision and I'm willing to take full responsibility for it Head. said Beru resolutely

hmm well I didn't choose you as my head of security for nothing but you must know the consequences of reporting a false report and disrupting a meeting in The Web right? ask the Head

I'm fully aware Head, in all honesty, I wish, was wrong head said Beru

hmm, one of the eyebrows of the Head was raised...

so Beru according to you should we cancel the meeting? ask the Head

Not yet Head give me a few minutes to completely verify everything.. said Beru...

Very well.. said the head

now you've heard the reason for the alarm, for now, we will continue said the Head

all target eliminated Eve reported

Eve, how's miller condition? ask Ruby

unconfirmed said, Eve

understood said, Ruby

Ida, Jeremy take care of Miller the rest proceed as plan said Ruby emotionlessly

roger!

Eve what happens? asks Arc.

theres a sniper in one of my blind spot.. replied Eve

then why didn't you send someone to check it? ask Arc

there were 369 blind spots in the surroundings of the Spider headquarters checking one by one would compromise the overall mission increasing the danger by 300% said. Eve

But.

Tiffa intercept him and said

Boss this is part of the mission there's no mission without risk the Shadow Unit all knows that and they accepted it they know the risk, nothing was hidden from them it is nobody fault Boss.. said Tiffa

probably from all of Arc subordinate that comes from the system only Tiffa can talk to him like that because among all of them she's the only one designed to advise and corrects their Master because she's a perfect Secretary her role is not just to help but also to advise their master.

I see.. said Arc

I let my emotion gets the best of me again ..- said Arc in his mind

- relax Boss I'm sure they can handle whatever the enemies got for them- said Tiffa with a smile

Arc he was about to said I'm at fault, but he stops himself as a leader he needs to look strong and reliable even if he blames himself he can't let it shows outside, and he knows that...
