Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!

"Alert! A missile will arrive in seven minutes."

"Uncle, what should we do? That missile will blow up this house!"

"Don't worry! It won't ever reach this place...", Gulf smirks.

He does something with his tablet. Nunew and Fort totally have no clue. They only watch him with uneasy hearts. Every second matters in this case. That missile will be here soon. However, the older sighs in relief a moment later.

"Everyone back off from the battle area now and go inside the house!", he says before tapping something on the tablet.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Dozens of smoke bombs explode in the middle of the battle area. Visibility in the middle of this smoke is very low. The leaders and bodyguards immediately put on their masks. While all the attackers are having a hard time to breathe. Admist the chaos, everyone rushes into the house. All the injured have also been evacuated.

"North is cleared!"

"East is cleared!"

"West is cleared!"

"South is cleared!"

After all team confirmed, Gulf runs the next plan. He actually wants to save this for the last, but seems like they need to show up sooner than expected. He clicks something on the tablet.

"Alert! Missile successfully returned.", the youngsters are agape.

"What the..."

"Uncle, where is it going?"

"Of course, their place!", he smiles evilly.

"Alert! M1, M2, M3, M4, M5 are ready to launch. Choose continue to execute!", the tablet holder follows the instruction.

"Alert! All missiles will be launched in three... two... one..."

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

Unbeknownst to the two of them, the missile shooters aren't far from where they are. Five missiles are fired simultaneously. Missiles fly quickly in the sky. It spreads in five different directions.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

From the rooftop, they can see how the missiles destroy all enemies on the yard. Because those missiles are fired together, the attackers don't have time to run away. One of it even hits a van that supposed to be the mobile communication center. This is truly amazing.

The leader of Black Eagle is shocked. He doesn't expect his plan to end up this mess. It is almost impossible for one thousand seven hundred people to be defeated by five hundred people. Plus, how the missiles could be fired at the same time. That precision can only be obtained if it's an automated system. He needs to think the next step. But, he suddenly realizes something. His eyes widen. It must be them!

"Sir, our main base is under attack. The missiles we sent out hit back. Our warehouse is destroyed."

"Fuck! My guess is right! What about my son?"

Drtttt! Drttttt!

The leader of Black Eagle frowns. It's an incoming call from unknown number. He answers it. His eyes widen as he hears someone's groaning.

"Looking for someone? Look over here! I know you know where I am now."

"Give me back my son!"

"You took my parents' lives and still dare to ask for your son? How shameless you are!"
