Did you miss me?
Lilith smiled sweetly, her eyes gleaming with a sinister light. "Hello, Stormy. It's been a while."
"You betrayer, how dare you do this to me!” Stormy yelled.
"Oh come on, drop the act, Stormy" Lilith yelled back. “l am no betrayer, but you are. Just because of your stupid obsession over a man who doesn't like you, let alone love you. Look at where you've landed yourself!” Lilith yelled.
"And l even warned you,but you didn't listen, so it's not my fault,” Lilith continued.
"So, you mean you've been working with Falcon and pretending to me all this while?" Stormy asked, raising her eyebrow.
"You guessed correctly, Stormy. And come to think of it, Lilith is perfect in acting,” Falcon replied, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Start!” He ordered.
Stormy's eyes widened in horror as Lilith approached her.
“You can't be serious, Falcon. You're going to let her torture me?"
Falcon shrugged. "Desperate times call for desperate measures, Stormy. And Lilith here has a... unique set of skills."
Lilith chuckled, her voice dripping with malice. "Oh, I'm going to enjoy this."
Stormy struggled against her restraints, but they were too tight. She was at Lilith's mercy.
"So, Stormy," Lilith said, her voice dripping with sweetness. "Tell me, where is Ari?"
Stormy spat in her face. "I'll never tell you."
Lilith's smile never wavered. "We'll see about that."
And with that, the torture began.
Back in the tech room, Landon and Genny were still trying to find Dragon's location, They had used every method they knew in finding it, but all to no avail, just as they were about to give up Genny spoke.
“Found it!" Genny exclaimed happily.
“Really?" Landon asked standing up from his seat to check Genny's computer.
“Wow! You really found it!” Landon exclaimed.
“Yep! Let's call the boss," Suggested Genny and Landon nodded.
Back in the torture room, Falcon's phone rang. He answered, listening intently before his eyes locked onto Stormy.
"It's done," he said, his voice cold. "Dragon's location has been found"
Stormy's eyes widened in shock.
"But don't think this saves you, Stormy," Falcon continued. "You're still going to pay for what you've done." Falcon said and left the torture room leaving Stormy and Lilith alone.
Lilith's smile grew wider. "Oh, I'm just getting started.”
Stormy's eyes darted around the room, desperate for an escape. But she was trapped, at Lilith's mercy.
"You're enjoying this, aren't you?" Stormy spat, trying to hide her fear.
Lilith chuckled. " You see, Stormy, I've been waiting for this moment for a long time. And now, I get to make you pay for all the pain you've caused me."
Stormy's eyes narrowed. "You're just jealous, Lilith. Jealous of my relationship with Falcon."
Lilith's smile faltered for a moment, before she regained her composure. "Jealous? Of you? Don't make me laugh, Stormy. I'm just trying to protect Falcon from people like you."
Stormy snorted. "Protect him? You're just using him for your own gain."
Lilith's eyes flashed with anger. "How dare you," she hissed, before striking Stormy across the face.
Stormy's head snapped back, pain exploding through her cheek. She glared at Lilith, defiance burning in her eyes.
"You'll never break me, Lilith," Stormy spat. "I'll never tell you what you want to know."
Lilith's smile grew wider. "We'll see about that."
And with that, the torture continued.
After Falcon left the torture room, he called Venom to meet him in his room. Minutes later Venom entered his room.
Falcon turned to Venom, a determined look on his face. "It's time to put an end to this. Let's gear up and get moving."
Venom nodded, a fierce grin spreading across his face. "About time, boss. I'm sick of playing games with Dragon."
Falcon's eyes locked onto Blaze and Lina, who were standing by the door, ready to move. "You two, come with us. We're going to take down Dragon and get Ari back."
Blaze nodded, his hand on the grip of his gun. "Let's do this."
Lina's eyes flashed with determination. "I'm ready."
The four of them set out, moving swiftly and silently through the night. They arrived at Dragon's location, a heavily fortified warehouse on the outskirts of town.
Falcon's eyes scanned the perimeter, his mind racing with strategy. "Venom, take point. Blaze, cover our six. Lina, you're with me."
Venom nodded, moving forward with a deadly precision. Blaze covered their rear, his eyes scanning the shadows for any sign of danger. Falcon and Lina moved forward, their guns drawn.
As they entered the warehouse, they were met with a hail of gunfire. Dragon's men were waiting for them, and they were not going down without a fight.
Falcon's eyes locked onto Dragon, who was standing at the far end of the warehouse, a sneer on his face. "It's over," Falcon called out, his voice ringing through the warehouse. "Let Ari go, and we might let you live."
Dragon laughed, a cold, mirthless sound. "You'll never leave this place alive.”The warehouse erupted into chaos as Falcon's team charged forward, guns blazing. Venom took down multiple targets with swift precision, his movements a blur. Blaze laid down a withering field of fire, pinning down Dragon's men and giving Lina and Falcon cover to advance.
Falcon and Lina moved in tandem, their guns firing in sync as they cleared a path through the warehouse. Lina took down a target with a swift kick, while Falcon dispatched another with a precise shot to the shoulder.
Dragon's men returned fire, but Falcon's team was well-trained and well-coordinated. They dodged and weaved, avoiding the hail of bullets as they pushed deeper into the warehouse.
Venom took a hit to the arm, but he didn't flinch, keeping his gun trained on the enemy as he fired back. Blaze laid down a smokescreen, providing cover for the team to regroup and recharge.
Falcon and Lina pushed forward, their eyes locked on Dragon. He sneered at them, his gun trained on Ari, who was bound and gagged on the floor.
"Let her go, Dragon," Falcon growled, his gun trained on the villain.
Dragon just laughed, his finger tightening on the trigger. But before he could fire, Lina took him down with a swift kick, sending his gun flying.
The warehouse fell silent, the only sound was the heavy breathing of Falcon's team. They have defeated Dragon, even though he was still alive Falcon didn't want to kill him now, because he wanted Dragon to watch how he will become greater than him in the future.
Venom's arm was bleeding, and Blaze was favoring one leg because of the fight.
Falcon rushed to my side, freeing me from my bonds. I gasped, my eyes wide with fear, but otherwise unharmed.
“Falcon" l called out, my voice barely a whisper.
“Did you miss me?" Falcon asked, his eyes searching mine.
Ari smiled weakly at his words before she fainted into his arms.
