Mr. Cain pov

Twirling and playing. That's what I'm doing while my captain and his people are out there. I wanted to capture the girl myself but my captain warned me that it could be too dangerous so I stayed. One of my soldiers enters the office all of a sudden and I look at him suddenly annoyed he didn't knock as I say
"Yes? Thank you for knocking!"
He says terrified
"Forgive me sir but we just received an urgent phone call from one of the soldiers. He was about to call for backup before he got shot because,I......."
I get frustrated at his hesitation and yell
"TELL ME DAMNIT!"
"Everyone is dead"
I look at him as my eyes widen and I feel my palms start to sweat. I fall back into my chair in complete shock as I repeat a small whisper to myself
"Dead?"
My captain is dead?! He was the only imbecile I liked in this business well other then David but that bastard betrayed me. I ended realizing that he was good friends with the guy who was helping Hiraeth. Fuck him! He betrayed me and I don't care if he dies but my captain was always loyal to me, I loved him like a brother and now, he's dead. I get up as I feel my veins pop out of my neck.
I whisper to the soldier deadly quiet
"I want you to figure out where those bastards are going."
He stays on the floor looking up at me like a terrier strayed dog.
"NOW!"
He jumps up and leaves the room bowing his head, completely terrified. If only their fear of me was effective, if only it got the fucking work done. I sit down and start twirling my pencil while I whisper to my myself
"I'm going to avenge you"
