2 Chapter 2: Imprisoned

'drip. drop drip'

It was dark. The only light inside the prison comes from the moonlight. The prison is not too big but big enough to have ten cells. It has five cells located on the left side of the prison and another five on the right and in the middle is the hallway. It was humid inside and filthy, full of dust and cobwebs. The prison is made up of bricks and the door of the cell is made up of steel. Every cell has a small window which is barred with steel bars.

The man residing in one of the cell opened his eyes. The first thing he observed is his hands were tied and he is laid down in a filthy bed.

"That scum lied to us! I can't believe he betrayed us. If I'll ever see him again I will tear him limbs from limbs!". The man thought inside his heart. The man named Nicolas Adrianno. He is one of the commanding officer in their base. You might be asking why he came inside the enemies territory, the reason is that, a few days ago they received a message from one of their spies named Judas. He said he found out the base of their enemies territory which they were looking for a month already since its first attack on the civilians but, they lost contact to Judas so Nicolas decided to look for his friend and also to gather data on where the commanding officer of this terrorist group resided. But, never did he thought that the whole thing is only a sham and now, here he is a prisoner of this vicious terrorist group.

The man observerved his surroundings and look for leila, which is his partner in this mission. Leila Cara is one of their elite although this is the first time that they were partnered in a mission but as the commanding officer he cared for his subordinates wholeheartedly.

He saw her inside a cell which is beside his and she's unconcious and also her hands are tied just like him. He also saw that beside them there also people residing in other cells. He deduced that they are the civilians which became the terrorist's hostages. It seems there are 20 persons, there are men and woman. Some are young and some are old.

"Leila!". Nicolas called Leila. Leila slowly opened her eyes and get up from her bed. "Leila! are you alright?". Nicolas asked knowing that before they were become captive she got shot on her legs.

"Yes sir, I'm right and they also bandage my wound it seems they are planning to keep us alive". Leila responded to her superior.

"Its a good thing you're fine. I think they held us to gather infos about our base". Nicolas said while nitting his brows and think what are their enemies plan.

"Sir, I think our spy betrayed us". Leila said although she knows that Judas is Nicolas' childhood friend.

"I also think so. I never doubt him and trusted him wholeheartedy but I didn't think he will do this to us". Nicolas said then sigh and think why his best friend would betray them.

"So, what should we do now sir?". Leila asked.

"For now we'll observe our enemies and what for our rescuers since you had send them the signal earlier."

" Roger that sir!"

The door in the prison opened and five men in arms came in and walk towards Nicolas and Leila's cell. They opened it and dragged Nicolas and Leila.

"Where are you taking us?". Leila asked while they are being dragged. But, the terrorist paid no heed to her. They take them out of the prison and dragged them towards another room which they presumed to be their interrogation room. They put them in a chair. The interrogation room has a table which is full of torturing tools. It als has a bed and two chairs which they are seated.

"What do you want from us?". Nicolas asked but they were still ignored. They seems to be waiting for someone before they will respond.

After a few moments the door inside the interrogation room opened and a man came in. The man has a scar in his left eye and has a full beard. This man is called connard, the leader of this terrorist group and base from their intel is a psychopath and loves to torture his enemies sometimes in a queer and obscene way or sometimes in a gory sight depending on his mood.

"Well, well, well who do we have here haha!. Nicolas Adrianno a commanding officer of alpha base haha! I thought you are great but still falls in my hands haha!". Connard said while smirking.
