Jasim: Chapter 3 - Unknown Dangers

The Farewell...

(Meanwhile at the Destaani Headquarters)
The Arrendale mission commences within 2 days, Jasim and Raisa meet everyone before leaving for the mission. Coincidentally, an old commander of the Destaani returns from a long-standing mission that was given to him about 5 years ago. His name is Faiz Ihsan and was one of the members who played a significant role during the founding of the Destaani clan. He also happens to meet Jasim and Raisa while he is on his way to the attendance room.

Faiz: Jasim! Raisa! How have you both been?!
Jasim: Faiz sir? It's been a long time! I am doing good sir!
Raisa: Sir am doing great! How about you sir?
Faiz: I've been alright, and am alright now... I've heard about the incidents that happened while I was away, and they are saddening indeed...
Raisa: Yeah... Indeed...
Faiz: Alright, I have to head to the attendance room... I'll be on my way... With your permission...
Jasim: Sure sir!

Jasim and Raisa proceed to meet Saeed and Akira...

Saeed: Brother, you are going to a mission without me?! How come?!
Jasim: Calm down brother, I'd like you to also join in the mission, but in the current scheme of things, it's actually better if you stayed here... I'll complete my mission peacefully, knowing that my brave and smart comrade brother will protect the Destaani from any unexpected dangers...
Saeed: Hmm... Alright, but do you think the Destaani is under any threat right now? Like we've eliminated Aaron, who was a real pain... So, what else awaits us?
Jasim: Aaron, while yes, he was annoying, was far from the last enemy we would be encountering. There is very good reason to believe his dim-wit younger brother Simon Liu would come here to take revenge of his elder brother... And besides, it'd seem like a good opportunity for our enemies to attack the headquarters while myself and Raisa are away...
Akira: Well said Jasim, and in view of this threat, let me bring in more of my soldiers, so that we can better protect this place...
Jasim: That's a good thought, we'll definitely need more soldiers now more than ever. As the Destaani clan's name and fame grows, so does its enemies...
Saeed: (sighs) Alright then brother, have a safe trip to Arrendale, and stay safe while you're there...
Jasim: Thank you so much brother!
Akira: May your mission go smoothly, Raisa. All the best!
Raisa: Thanks Akira! The headquarters is entrusted to you and Saeed!
Akira: We'll do our best and protect the trust!

Two days later, Jasim and Raisa fly to Arrendale via a supersonic jet, while Saeed and Akira increase the number of soldiers patrolling the headquarters...
