Cain pov
"It has been weeks now....WHERE ARE THEY?!"
I tell out to my useless employees. I look at my general who looks at me with horror in his face. He replies
"W..w..we don't...."
"Speak clearly!"
I blurt out. He gulps and sits up straight while fixing his vest. Well, if fixing a jacket will get him some balls to speak a clear sentence, so be it. He starts over and says with a shaking voice
"We don't know sir. Dr. Frankovich deleted all proof of his location and helped the others to do the same"
Even hearing his name hurts me. The fool betrayed me in ways I never thought he could. The one guy I treated well amongst these idiots repays me in this way. I look back at the General and command
"Work harder, I want them found and brought to me"
The General nods and I exit the discussion room to go back to my office. Once I finally sit down in my chair, I take out a Whiskey bottle from my desk and start pouring myself a glass. I bring the glass to my lips and drink the Whiskey while I lay back and relax, savouring the taste of it. I am suddenly interrupted by my office phone ringing and pick it up. I put it on speaker and a feminine voice says
"Hello, Mr.Cain."
I look at the phone in a bored look and say
"What is it I can do for you?"
She says
"I have something you want"
I wait in silence and so does she apparently. I start to lose my patience and say in a impatient tone
"Well? I'm listening!"
She says
"Oh, I have the location Hiraeth, alongside her band of friends"
I jump out of my seat and say in a demanding tone
"Where are they?"
She takes a while and says
"42 Caratē dé Palané. Greece, Athens"
I write down the address and laugh. I then remember she is still on the phone and say
"Alright, I'm on my way. With your prize, of course"
She says in a bored tone
"Keep it"
She hands up the phone and I walk out of my office and tell my guard
"Go to the General and tell him I have the address."
The guard says
"Of who sir?"
I look at him and say
"Hiraeth"
