Chapter 7

New recruitees were being brought in but no one, not even the guards on Major Andrews suspected the fact that the new assistant Major had decided to escort them to the camp alone.

The next day, after the recruitees were settled in was a memorable one for all who had been in the F.M.F.T.A.O for 6 years though the sixth year had only started. It seemed the new recruitees weren't as they (the newly acclaimed soldiers) thought they were.

It all happened in the blink of an eye, in a flash, the entire place was torn up, it was all an ambush. The soldiers recollected the plan of a year ago and joined in the battle, they killed all the guards and set the entire camp ablaze.
Major Andrews didn't have time to think about what was happening to the empire he had built after 7 years, he ran up to his office in the main building.

He put the entire room on lockdown mode and calmed himself down, telling himself not to panic. How the hell had he not seen this coming? He had always bee careful but recently his head had been filled with thoughts of Celine's child, no, she was his Celine. His actions had  become sloppy of her, she was to blame.

He tugged at his hair as he thrashed his desk, breathing heavily in rage.
There was a knock on the door and he turned staring at it intensely before asking

  "Who is it?"
 
"Justin sir"The person replied
    
"Password?"Major Andrews asked
   
  "Celine" came the reply

He turned off the lockdown mode and waited as the guard opened the door. He took one step inside then fell to the ground, a flick knife sticking out the back of his neck.

Major Andrews widened his eyes as he stared at the person standing then the guard on the floor. She bent down to retrieve the knife before straightening up again.
Her eyes held no emotion as she looked at him, he took a step back as she took one step into the room, her eyes unwavering, staying focused on him, her grip on her knives tightening
 
"What are you doing here?"He asked
 
  "I could ask you the same thing"she said
  
"Shouldn't you be out there defending this institution?!"he shouted

  "Then why aren't you out there?"she asked

He stumbled a little
 
   "What?"
 
"Why aren't you there fighting, defending your great institution instead you're here, hiding because you're a coward, you act all high and mighty but inside you're a deranged man who has completely lost his sanity"she said calmly

"This is all your fault, i own you and you have no right to talk back at me, i control you. You are mine, only mine"He.screamed as he moved forward when she threw one of  her knives at his right eye and like always she made her target.

He staggered backwards as he screamed in agony before falling to the floor. She stared at him as he writhed in pain, her face, a mask of no emotion, she stood still as flames licked their way up the building, climbing to the top floor.

The recruitees were all part of the SWAT team in the US force and some others were in the army. The assistant Major had been sent in as a spy for the American government and daily, he sent reports about his discoveries in the camp. He had gone about it so secretly that not a single soul knew about it. He was patient seeing as Major Andrews was very good at being discreet but in the end, he had finally succeeded in concocting a plan that had led to the rescue of all members of the F.M.F.T.A.O excluding the guards of course and to think he had spent a lot of time with them before he was appointed Assistant Major after he had earned Major Andrews' trust.

He had made sure his plan was foolproof making sure that no one suspected a thing.

The entire camp had been set on fire as the soldiers were transported out of the place when he caught sight of someone on the top floor. One of the SWAT team members was already bursting through trying to get to the top floor to save the person up there.
  
Gwen stood as still as a statue not minding the heat or the flames that were closing in on her. She closed her eyes, ready for her demise, as she fell backwards expecting to feel the hard floor and burning pain but instead she felt a pair of arms wrap around her body and lift her up.

Maybe this was how the dead was carried to the afterlife, soon she would be silenced for eternity. Drowning in soft soothing silence that numbed all pain and feelings. She was going to a place where there were no 'Walters' and there was no Major Andrews.

Maybe she would have the home she wished for, maybe she would meet her mother, she would finally have peace and be able to smile. She would reunite with her innocent soul and regain her lost childhood.

She would find happiness and be loved for who she was, she would be overjoyed in a world of no corruption. She would not be tied down to her demons, the Walters, the haunting eyes, her lost maidenhead, she would be free, finally free forever
   
   "Hang on, we'll save you, i promise"
 
Her eyes opened then closed as a peaceful smile settled on her features
  
"You're a little late, don't you think?" She whispered before she closed her eyes again.
