"God dammit," Healy said.
Bennett comes walking into Healy's office wondering why he is yelling and throwing stuff across his office.
"Sir, is everything okay?" Bennett asked.
Healy looks frustrated, angry almost while sitting in his chair.
"Does everything look okay to you son? Hmm?" He snapped.
"Sorry sir, I thought I'd just come by and check in," Bennett replied quietly.
"Son, look I'm sorry okay? I didn't mean to snap on you like that. It's not right,"
Bennett comes in and closes the door behind him. He then walks over to the chairs that are placed in front of Healy's desk. He takes a seat.
"Sir, we have a problem,"
Healy leans forward and rests his head in the palm of his hand. His elbow is resting on the desktop.
"Go on," Healy instructed.
"Two more of the passengers died this morning. A young girl and a woman. In addition, there was a plane crash at Honolulu International Airport yesterday evening. What if it's the girls? James's wife? Why would you send that letter to his wife?" Bennett asked.
"You're now putting this prisons secrecy in jeopardy," Bennett continued.
"Shoot, you're right Bennett. You are right. We must prepare for battle," Healy said.
"What do you mean?" Bennett asked confused.
Healy leans in closer to Bennett and whispers into his ear.
"I mean get every guard that's employed here to work tonight. I have a strange feeling they're coming tonight. We need a diversion. Something that will keep them distracted long enough for us to be prepared. Go get my son. Tell him that I need him here immediately,"
"You mean Marcus?" Bennett asked.
"YES!" Healy said.
Bennett then gets up out of his chair and walks to the door. Before he opens it he mumbles something under his breathe.
"You have something coming for you Healy. You just wait and see," Bennett mumbled.
"What was that boy?" Healy asked.
"Oh nothing. I was just talking to myself, that's all,"
"Uh huh," Healy said.
Then Bennett opens the door and slams the door behind him.
"Where's Marcus? I need to speak to him pronto," Bennett shouted.
Marcus comes out from the men's bathroom and runs into Bennett as he is pacing the hallways.
"Ahh, Marcus there you are. You're dad needs you in his office pronto, but it's urgent. So, I wouldn't keep him waiting if I were you,"
"Aye, but before you go can I have a word with you real quick Marcus?"
Marcus then turns around and Bennett then grabs his arm and pulls him to the side of the hallway.
"Mikayla and her friends are here. They need your help. Well Mikayla doesn't need you help anymore because the U.S Government murdered her and almost killed her friends too,"
Marcus looks suspiciously at Bennett.
"And, how do you know this?"
Bennett rolls his eyes and looks back at Marcus.
