Broken Bonds

Chapter 5 - The Rescue

Word gets back to Dogun academy as newspaper begins to fly in and show on the front cover the deduction an mayhem that occurred in Mubai. Victor put the school on lockdown as it prepares for any counterattack . Neo, Zaria and Tien rushes to the chairman's office and wishes to speak to him.

Neo: Mr. Chairman? What happened to our comrade?

Victor: I assure you that everything is under control. Just calm down and let me handle it.

Neo: calm down? How am I suppose to calm down when my friend could be dead.

Victor: You don't think I'm pissed a student of mines snuck out and basically causes a war.

Neo: Is she allowed back

Victor: I'm sorry Neo, but her coming back her could put the rest of the country in danger. You don't seem to grasp the essence of what Sophia just caused.

Zaria: Uncle, why don't you tell us so we can understand?

*Victor sighs and closes his office door for privacy*

Victor: Well, Mubai was a known place for a place called the black Market. It known for buy, selling, and training goods such as: clothes, drugs, weapons, humans, organs, etc, etc. Your friend Sophia just disrupted and destroy one of the largest black markets in the world; pissing off so many people in the process. Military, mobs, gangs, syndicates and many more people have place a bounty on Sophia's head and will stop at nothing until she is dead. Add that to the fact that she has killed at least tow of the red dragon syndicate members, they will stop at nothing to see her in a body bag.

Zaria: So, you knew about the red Drago syndicate?

Victor: Yes

Neo: So why not tell Sophia about where they were.

Victor: because she was blank canvas that could be die any color. She was too unstable. I knew the girl had power, and if she snapped then she would put many people in danger, she has become a murder.

Neo: I see nothing she did wrong. She's just wiping the stump off the earth, that doesn't deserve to be here. She exposed a corrupt system and now she looked at as the bad guy in this.

Victor: If she was patient she could've been united with her family in more peaceful way, instead she started a war.

Neo: So you expected her to negotiate with the same people that killed her family?

Victor: I would've avoided so much trouble.

Neo: Mr. Chairman, with all due respect, you're sounding like a coward right now.

Victor: excuse me?

Zaria: you better watch your tongue Neo

Neo: Oh I'm sorry but, isn't this what we've trained us for.

Victor: and Clearly you aren't mature enough for what's out there.

Neo: How do you know when you're too busy sheltering people away from the world. Now you chose us to be student in this academy whenever something like this arises. We've been training our asses off while people are out there suffering. What happened in Mubai maybe happening in may other places as well. Now if we are going to fight, it time we know the truth of whats really out there.

Zaria: Uncle, while this boy is stubborn. I have to agree, I'm not some little kid anymore. We're growing up and it time we take responsibility for something. If we are going to do that we ought to know the truth. Now I want to step into my destiny but I can't when there's someone holding my hand all the time. Uncle please lets us go and fight.
