Figli della Notte #1: Codename Havoc

Chapter 4

Natapos ang party at inihatid na niya si Belinda pabalik sa condo nito.

He kissed her goodbye. It would have only been a smack dahil na rin nagmamadali si Cody but Belinda immediately wrapped her arms around his neck to deepen the kiss.

When she parted her lips, Cody immediately charged forward and let his tongue invade her mouth. Experienced na si Cody in 'that' field kaya naman alam na niya kung paano magpaliyo sa isang babae.

Cody heard Belinda moan in his mouth. As soon as he heard that, he bit her lower lip and parted.

"Like that?", he seductively said in his bedroom voice and grinned at her.

"Yes, honey." Belinda moaned, her face filled with obvious lust.

"I'll have to stop here, honey.", he sucked her lower lip again before pushing the woman away. "I have important things to attend to tonight."

"What?", hindi makapaniwalang sambit ni Belinda.

"I need to go.", he replied while wiping off the lipstick smudged on his lips.

"You can't leave me hanging here, honey.", saad pa ni Belinda. She tried to bring back the heat by holding his waist and pulling him closer.

"Goodbye, Belinda.", he kissed her on the cheeks before walking away.

"Come back here, Cody!"

Narinig pa niyang sigaw ni Belinda sa kanya bago tuluyang mag-close ang pinto ng elevator. Napailing na lamang siya. He took out his phone and immediately texted Leo to remove Belinda from his little black book. Sa nakita niya ngayong gabi kay Belinda, nunca na gugustuhin niya uling makasama ito.

Cody immediately drove back home. He only showered and dressed into his comfy pajamas before heading straight to his secret office. Lahat ng may kinalaman sa family ay dito niya itinatago. May passcode and biometric scan ang room kaya hindi madaling makapasok dito. The room will also self-destruct if pwersahang pinasok.

As soon as he sat on his swivel chair, he started drafting the plan for his mission.

Coming up with a plan is pretty easy dahil hindi na bago sa kanya ang misyon kaya naman sisiw na sa kanya ang planuhin ang kanyang susunod na hakbang. More importantly, masyadong spot on ang info na hawak niya kaya naman mas madaling gumawa ng Plan A and Plan B.

Ipinagbigay-alam niya agad kay L ang kanyang plano na gawin ang mission kinabukasan ng gabi. Through the PC in his room, he sent his plan to L. He needs to inform L about what actions he will take dahil ito ang magiging back-up niya when he's on the move. Moreover, L can run a test on the probability of success for his plan.

After waiting for a few seconds, agad nag-pop up sa screen ang reply ni L. He fist pumped when L gave the green signal for the plan.

-*****-

Naka-park sa di kalayuan ang kotse ni Havoc. From where he is, kitang-kita niya ang mataas na pader at roof ng facility na papasukin niya ngayon. He is just waiting for the clock to strike at the right hour for him to make a move.

Through the data he got from L, nakabisa na niya ang mga blind spots ng CCTV. Even if walang blind spots, alam niyang na-hack na ni L ang system. May tiwala siya sa suporta ni L.

Habang naghihintay, nag-image training siya ng ilang beses. Kinakabisa niya sa isip ang mga hakbang na gagawin na para bang ginagawa niya talaga iyon sa totoong mundo. This kind of image training will lower the chances of failure.

When the right hour came, he put on his plain black Venetian half mask na tumatabing lang sa upper portion ng kanyang mukha. Umakyat na rin siya nang hindi inalintana ang height ng pader. One of his trainings as a Figli della Notte agent ay the art of parkour kaya naman hindi na niya kailangan ang gumamit ng lubid para maka-akyat.

He hid behind the bushes and stealthily made his way from the courtyard to inside the house. Alam na alam na rin niya ang ruta ng mga gwardiya kaya naman nakapasok siya ng walang nakakita.

Una niyang pinuntahan ang basement. Nasa basement kasi ang pagawaan ng droga. It wasn't that easy to reach the basement, lalo na at mas dumadami ang bantay habang papalapit siya roon. He even has to slit a few men's throat just to keep them silent. Of course, that also means he has to hid the body somewhere inconspicuous.

Once he reached there, he positioned himself in an area na malaya niyang mapagmamasdan ang kabuuan ng basement na walang nakakakita sa kanya. Napakalawak ng basement and he saw the numerous drums of chemicals scattered around. May mga armed men din ang nakamasid sa paligid while the rest are people wearing white lab coats and facial masks.

Havoc gritted his teeth ng makita niya ang mga sako na nasa isang side ng laboratory. If he isn't mistaken, mga droga din iyon. 

'Ilang toneladang droga na ba ang nagawa ng mga hayop na ito?!', nagngingitngit na tanong ni Havoc sa sarili.

Iginala niya ang tingin sa basement and immediately took note of the entrances and exits. As soon as he confirmed their positions, he changed the settings of his modified gun.

Matagal na siyang bumibilib sa R&D department ng family. Naroon yung modified car niya. Eto naman ngayon ang modified gun.

This gun model is named after the Greek goddess of justice, Themis. It has the shape of a Desert Eagle ngunit may setting changer sa breech nito. Sa grip naman naka-ukit ang insignia ng family.

When he heard the gun click to the right setting, he immediately aimed at one of the exits, specifically at the lower section of the doorframe. He pulled the trigger and a special bullet whizzed through the air and got stuck to where he aimed at. Walang ingay na nagawa niya iyon ng paulit-ulit hanggang sa kahuli-hulihang exit.

'Perfect!'

Mabilis niyang nilisan ang basement ng matapos gawin ang pakay niya. With certainty, binaybay niya ang daan papunta sa huling destinasyon niya sa gabing iyon - ang study room.

According sa report, palaging nasa study room ang don kapag nandito ito sa mansyon. Hindi rin ito pumapayag na kung sinu-sino lang ang pumasok sa kwartong iyon. The last maid who attempted to enter the room without permission went missing. A few weeks later, she reappeared, having lost her sanity due to drug overdose.

Nakita na niya sa labas ang kotse ng don kaya naman sigurado siyang narito sa mansyon ang kanyang target. And going by the report, nasa study room na ito ngayon.

While stealthily going to the study room, nagdidikit ng napakaliit na circular device si Havoc sa mga crucial structures na madaanan niya.

Nang marating ang study room, nagpalinga-linga muna si Havoc to make sure na walang bantay sa paligid. Iniiba niya rin ang settings ng Themis to match with his plan. After confirming that he's currently safe, he tapped the earpiece he is wearing several times. It was Morse code at tinatanong niya kay L kung ang don lang ba ang nasa loob ng kwarto o may iba pa. Knowing L, he should already have tampered with the CCTV by now.

"Clear. Target is sitting on the throne."

As soon as he heard the mechanical voice say that, he worked his magic on the locked doorknob.

Pagkapihit na pagkapihit niya ng pinto papabukas, agad niyang ini-umang ang baril sa matanda at binaril ito. He hit the man with a bullet that injects a very potent tranquilizer.

Hindi pa nakakabawi sa pagkabigla ang don ay agad niyang naramdaman ang pagsigid ng munting kirot sa kanyang kaliwang balikat. Naramdaman din niya ang pamamanhid ng kanyang katawan at panghihina.

"S-sino kang pangahas ka?!", galit ngunit hapong-hapong sigaw ni Don Elizalde.
