116 The Distraction
–
Kai POV
I watched as my lovely wife and Jason entered the car and then drove away with the assigned escort.
Ben, Charlie, and
I start making our way to the main warehouse next door.
My wife. I love the sound of that title. But my poor baby looks so tired even after six hours of sleep.
“Do you think we should call the doctor for Aurora? She’s been sleeping a lot more and seems a little
spaced out.” I asked the guys as we entered the side of the building using Ben’s keycard.
“Hmm. Yeah, you’re right. I don’t think it would hurt to make sure everything is okay. Dimitry coming
back is hard on
all of us, but I can only imagine what she is going through right now. We need to finish this once and for
all.” Charlie
said with a sad smile on his face.
“I agree. Aurora will be safe at home. Jason has already ordered triple reinforcement. The first plane
will arrive within the hour and two convoys have arrived and already checked in and on assignment. I
am going to go to check in with the Nerds and see if I can track that bastard down.” Ben said and
walked off.
“See you at home later?” Charlie asked and I hummed and nodded, still thinking about Aurora.
Something doesn’t feel right and I can’t put my finger on it, almost like she is hiding something. But that
can’t be right. She is always with us. It’s not like she can keep a secret from us.
“I think Ben put the new sharpshooter guns in your lair. Try not to have too much fun, okay?” Charlie
smiled and started walking towards his office.
“Who? Me? Never.” I replied sarcastically with a shit–eating grin on my face. I love new toys! I happily
increased my pace and headed downstairs and through the labyrinth of corridors until I got to the
Omega headquarters. I scanned my handprint, retina, and embedded wrist chip and the door clicked
open.
I walked in and saw the best and brightest hanging out at the tables and sofas, all of them laughing and
talking while sharpening or cleaning their weapons. “Honey! I’m home!” I sang, with my arms
outstretched. The guys stopped their chatter and immediately stood at attention.
“At ease soldiers,” I commanded and they relaxed but still stood, ready for orders. I began to slowly
walk around the space, addressing my men. “Marco has gone too far. He attacked us on our
honeymoon and could have hurt Aurora. We are going to find him and kill him, for real this time. No
mistakes gentlemen. We will not stop until his head
room for hangs on the traitor’s post outside.” A chorus of “ho–rahs‘ rang out in the hall. “Get back to
work. I want all our weapons and go–packs ready to go in two hours. Stay armed and ready.” I ordered
and headed to the weapons room. Oscar and another one of my favorites, Patrick, came with me.
We spent the next hour inspecting the new guns and another half hour having fun in the range, testing
them out. These bad boys were military–grade rifles with a fifty–round magazine with bullets that could
pierce an armored car; they were light as a feather and as durable as steel. They had an invisible heat
sensor and a thousand–foot shooting
range.
We were packing up when the building started to shake dramatically and then the breech alarm began
to bläre. The lights turned red and the sirens started to sound off. I went straight to my office, gun in
hand. My men were geared up

for orders.
Oscar pulled up the CCTV footage of the warehouse. Several cameras are out black and several
others are covered in smoke. I see many men running around and in two cameras there is a shootout
happening near the main dungeon
entrance. There is rubble and steel everywhere.
“Can you pull up another angle? See if we can get a better look at their faces.” I command Oscar while
pointing to covered men in the corner of the screen. “On it!” he responded and began clicking away like
a madman. The video switched instantly and we have an angle behind them.
There are six men, clad in black, but there are two dead men behind them. Oscar zooms into one of
the dead men’s
faces. “Look boss!” he exclaimed and he pointed to the neck. There is a visible tattoo and it’s the
insignia of the Marco mafia. These are Marco’s men. “Fuck!” I shout.
Turning around to see my soldiers, my mind goes military immediately. “Omega One and Three–secure

and cock my gun and head down the corridor to our secret door. “No
door. I shout for Team Four as I
survivors!” I shout to the rest of the teams as they gear up and head to their respective secret doors.
We have secret tunnels and doors all over the facility. Only the Omega Team, lason, Charlic, and Ben
know about these
tunnels. It’s one of the reasons we are called
We can pop up out of nowhere. We have a tunnel system even
back to the house as a way for emergenc
pom and an escape route.
I open the secret panel and my tve–man team stealthily enters, guns up and ready. They pull down
their night vision glasses and begin checking every nook and cranny of the blacked–out cemented
corridors. There is another violent shake of the building. We hasten our pace and m our way through
the halls and come to a steal door with many
nobs like a bank vault. I am in the middle of the
gan also at the ready. The lead men wait for my signal and I silently give it by tapping my guard on the
right three times on the shoulder.
These tunnels run on manual locks. Each door is a different combination of levers and moving pieces
on the door like a puzzle. If you get the combination wrong, it releases booby traps that will render you
incapacitated for hours. Part of Omega training is receiving the wrong combination on purpose to
experience what happens when you don’t pay attention. We are the best for a reason.
The guard puts in the combination and we hear the beautifull sound of the three locks clicking open.
The door cracks open and we waste no time rushing in. The door is hidden in a fake cell. We head to
the bars and open the door with ease. The entire dungeon is laced with a dark red light, casting a very
eene glow on the iron bars. The smell of blood and decay would be revolting to most. We make our
way through the cell Boot, hearing the moans and pleas of our
prisoners as we pass
The two men stop before we reach the next turn, halting all of our silent steps. The one on my left holds
up his hand nd signals silently that there is a disturbance up ahead and to wait. He creeps up the end
of the wall and removes a small camera from his vest. He clicks a few buttons and a small screen
enters my glasses so we can all see what is going on. Three men are trying to open one of our prison
doors. It’s Alex’s cell and they are talking quietly while wiring the door frame.

breaths, all five of my men took their positions in a pyramid formation in the open hall and trained their
guns on the men who were too busy arguing with each other.
With a simple snap of fingers: POP, POP, POP, POP, POP. Three thuds echoed softly and a small “not”
could be heard down the hall. The men made their way still in formation to the bodies. I followed behind
them lazily. They come up to the men and two of them put their guns away and removed the zip ties
from their pockets, securing the dead bodies With another simple snap, the three remaining guards
with guns fired another few rounds at the corpses just in case they twitched.
I turned my attention to Alexi who was slumped by the bars. He looked up at me in defeat and said
“This was distraction. Dimitry will not stop until he has Aurora. He is convinced she belongs to him. He
was supposed to rescue me two months ago. It was all a trap. I have a chip in me and the kid named
Wes in your tech group works for us. He put a virus in the system with the key I snuck in for him. I was
never supposed to stay here but everyone betrayed me He has no loyalty so I will show more loyalty to
him. Find Aurora. Kill him. Now please, kill me.” Alexu said, his breathing labored and weak.
I raised my loaded gun and said “Thank you for your cooperation. You are free.” And I pulled the
trigger. A nice perfect hole now rested in the center of his forehead.
