"What happened to you?" "I was interrogated for three days." His eyes widen for a second, "What did they want?" "They're trying to find that hacker, same as Peacekeeper." An APC quickly rolls up to us, "That's our cue, in the back with Note." On entry, Note hunches over a laptop with countless wires while Jem flicks his lighter to light a cigarette.

After leaning back into the seat, I exhale as Zack yells back, "Note! Hack the house and check for cameras!" He looks over and back at his monitor. "Fill us in, Tango." "Ok, it's supposedly a mercenary safe house, the same people that nabbed us.

We clear the house and take someone in for questioning." Jem's cigarette smoke finally crawls up to my nose. I cough.

A man blew his smoke into my face and slapped my cheek. "Where is the hacker? Come on already!"

I quickly unzip my duffel and puke in it. "You alright?!" "The fucking cigarette! Put it out!" Jem quickly stamps it out.

"Can't handle smoke?" Zack leans back towards him, "She was tortured, Jem! Damn."

Note glances back at me as I spit into the bag before turning back around. "Shit, I didn't know." After wiping my mouth off, Note tosses a water bottle to me.

"Thanks." We suddenly stop, "We're a block off, Zack." They all look towards Note as he stands up slowly, grabbing his shotgun. He opens the door and nods to the right.

Everyone gets out as Zack comes around, "You coming or not?" "Yeah, is he in charge?" Zack stares off, "Follow his lead." I shrug and get down. We march way behind Note as I whisper,

"Why are we so far back?" "Note is good at scouting. He's also known for his brutality."I gulp as he walks around the house, peeking in where he can.

He raises the gun and everyone moves up. He knocks on the door and waits for an answer. As the door opens he slams the gun's stock in a man's face, sending him to the ground.

He drags him outside as I follow the others into the house. A cock of a shotgun makes Tim raise his gun and fire, sending a woman to the ground. A muffled voice comes from upstairs as Tim's suppressor smokes, "Mom?!" A young girl runs down the stairs, only to run back up.

Note comes in and looks at the woman on the floor. He looks around, he grabs a cloth and takes her shotgun. "Wait, what're you-"

He aims the barrel to her wound. My heart sinks as he turns to the sudden crash upstairs. I run up the stairs and block him. "She's just a girl!" Zack and Tim pull me out the way, "Stop!" "You gave us bad intel!" "This house is owned by Veil LLC!"

Zack yells, "We just killed a family! Peacekeeper would be fucked if this got out." Jem stammers as he peeks out the front window, "Luckily we're in an area with not many cameras."

Tim goes outside, "I'll get the father." Thumping and screams come from above as we all look down, hoping for it to be over. With a loud crash and then a thud, something drops on the floor above.

Zack frowns at me as Tim drags the dad in and onto a chair, "The father was figured out to be a terrorist, so he killed his family in cold blood to save everyone the trouble.

He even wrote a goodbye note, get on it Jem." Jem covers his mouth, "No way." Note comes down the stairs as Zack looks at me, "Fine, Tango'll write the note." I step back, "No I'm not." Note cocks the gun, wipes it off and puts it into the guy's hands as Zack points his gun at me, "Do it or end up in a ditch. I'm not going to prison- I can't!"
