《Phantom Year one》Family Ties
Advertisement
Naa after checking on the hostages an making sure everyone was alright decided to interview some witnesses but she failed to get useful information except for the genders of the robbers. "how are we on the security cameras?" Naa went up to their tech guy, "all cameras went down during the robbery, there is a code running through the Bank system"
"can you crack it, or at least find out who is responsible for it" Naa asked the important question but the answer from the tech guy was a shake from his head which caused Naa to walk away disappointed.
The next day;
Hank on the other hand had left the bunker returning back above to be with his cousin, “Hank” Michelle called as she saw Hank appear in the kitchen. “cousin” Hank answered with a smile on his face, “how the hell do you keep doing that?” “Doing what?”
“I swear I searched this whole place for you yesterday and this morning the maids were certain you didn’t come in, in the night” Michelle spoke up still staring at Hank with her brows quirked in anticipation of an explanation.
“I’ve been here the entire time” Hank spoke with a straight face which seemed to piss Michelle off even more. Hank who the saw the look on her face continued, “I just went to bed early is all” “early? You left the party around five what are you a grandad and second I checked your room and you were nowhere to be found”
“It’s a big house there are a lot of rooms some you don’t know about” Hank continued, “so even the maids in this house know nothing of these rooms”
“I grew up here, they did not. Mm this is good” Hank spoke the last sentence with a mouth full of cereal. “hey, get your own” Michelle grabbed back her bowl of cereal which Hank attempted to take another spoon from, with that done Hank managed to draw Michelle’s attention from where exactly he was last night.

Truth be told Hank had not spent the entire night hidden away in his bunker, after being unable to gain information from the files he had he went searching for various gangs hoping to get some leads as he had managed to before but they seemed to have learnt from before leaving him with no information and turning the night to nothing more than him venting his frustrations on the unlucky criminals he met.
Deciding to forget about the failure that was last night Hank spent the remaining morning with his cousin.
Hank was not the only one feeling stressed about his lack of success as Naa was venting her frustrations on any of her supplies that were unlucky to come into her line of sight. “Urgh!” Naa let out a cry of frustration before falling into her chair ad covering her face with her hand.
“Well, you look terrible” Jarred spoke up as he saw his partners state, “I have a series of robberies which involve a murder of one of our own which I am no closer to solving and just last night I was sent round the city trying to catch the Phantom! So you tell me just how am I supposed to feel right now” with the mention of the Phantom Jarred could sense her anger which was slowly transforming into hate.
“You have start looking at things positively, maybe… I’m saying maybe, he could be hunting down the criminals too” Naa narrowed her eyes at him hearing that, “since when were you on his side?”
“I’m not on his side, was just trying to help you calm down”
“Well, that is doing the opposite of calming me down”
“I see that now, so why don’t I offer you an apology… lunch?”
“Yeah, but I am picking the place. Prepare to lose this month’s paycheck” Jarred broke out laughing hearing what Naa said before moving back out to continue working.

In a coffee shop not far from Thompson enterprises Ferdinand was seated with his laptop before him. His fingers were moving all over the keyboard as code after code kept appearing on his screen after a few more seconds of furiously typing a window appeared on his screen causing him to break out into a grin.
Immediately after he picked up his phone and placed a call to Hank,” hello” “Hank I got something big it’s about…” Ferdinand trailed off as he noticed two people walking into the coffee shop seemingly looking for someone. When he saw them, he gained an inexplicable feeling like they were after him.
Deep in his thoughts Ferdinand was unaware of Hank who was getting worried as each second passed. At this moment Ferdinand made eye contact with one of them, he immediately got a feeling from his spine that told him to run and so he did.
Grabbing his pc, he made a run for it with the two of them following after him just like he expected. They run into an alley and into another street but the two were persistent. The run continued for a few more minutes before finally Ferdinand was trapped as he came before a wall.
Turning around the two men where before him with caps casting shadows over their eyes . “Okay that was a fun game of chase, how about we schedule for next week?” Ferdinand nervously tried to diffuse the situation but his attempts was met with a gun, his eyes widened as this moment but before they could pull the trigger a knife flew at them knocking the gun out of his hand,
All three men turned to the source to see the Phantom jumping down and landing between the three. The two men shared a look before charging at him, the phantom grabbed an arm that came straight for his face before sending a hit to his gut that left the guy wheezing, The other one tried to attack as well but the Phantom dropped the guy he was holding and avoided the hit moving behind the guy slamming his elbow into the back of the man’s head he knocked him out, the hit also knocked of the cap revealing the guy’s face.
The Phantom attempted to interrogate one guy but heard something jumped away just in time as gunshots started blazing with the cover of gunfire people came over and the two on the ground were rescued leaving a shaken Ferdinand and the Phantom who walked up to him “you have five seconds, what the hell is going on?”
