FLASHBACK

CIA-NIS UNDISCLOSED FACILITY

Lisa opens the door abruptly as she runs and throws up on the ground. She could only hear herself vomiting making herself queasy and to throw up more.

She felt a hand rubbing her back as she stops vomiting. Lisa tries to catch her breath to calm herself.

"It's okay, Manoban. Everyone must go through that to pass the test."

Lisa looks up and saw Bambam with his outstretched arm holding a handkerchief. She silently grabs it and wipes her mouth.

"I killed someone."

Bambam nods, "Just remember, that prisoner supported the terrorists and initiated the killings of women and children in Iraq."

Bambam hands Lisa a bottle of water, she takes it and drank it until the last drop. She calmed down a bit, as she looks at the vast horizon of the desert.

"It still haunts to me to this day."

Lisa glanced at Bambam as the wind blew pass them.

"I was tasked to torture someone to get information about a nuclear weapons deal with ISIS and a arms dealer. I could still hear his screams of pain, but he never told me to stop."

Lisa looked down at the sand and idly draw on the ground.

"After torturing him for seventy-two hours, he finally revealed the location of the deal. Then they told to shoot him."

Lisa could still remember the heavy breathing of Mr. Sayid and the loud gun shot she fired at his head. Everything went slow motion for Lisa when his body limped due to death.

The door opens revealing the CIA Agent, he smiled at them, "Good job, Agent Manoban will be heading to Langley now. The Director of the NIS is currently having a meeting with our Director. Let's head out."

CIA HEADQUARTERS - LANGLEY

CIA DIRECTOR'S OFFICE

Lisa and Bambam were standing still after entering the Director's Office.

"Congratulations, Manoban and Bambam. We were able to capture one of the lieutenant's of the terrorist group and eliminated Mr. Sayid."

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in." The Director said.

The door opens, "Ah, Director Bruschweiler! Welcome to Langley."

Lisa eyes widen as she looked behind her and saw her father smiling proudly at her.

"Pranpiya."

"Dad?"

The CIA Director chuckles, "Family reunion?"

Marco chuckles and nods, "Manoban here is my daughter, she never knew that I worked at the NIS."
