The communicators were down. Thoughts raced through Benji's head as the gunshots grew louder, they were getting close. Why wasn't anyone answering? Had they been wiped out? There was only one thing he could do. He grabbed the half-empty gun lying next to him and jumped over the cover that he was sheltering behind. Bang. He killed one of them, but there would be more. He ran through the building, the hallways were either empty or filled with bodies. The blood-stained corridors seemed to go on forever without any signs of life, where was everyone? What had happened? "Connor? Are you there? Can anyone here me?" Benji desperately screamed into the earpiece. He knew that if there were any survivors wouldn't have chosen to stick around to die. Benji decided to do the same. He would have to go back to camp a loser. He lost the deal. He lost the package. He lost his friends.
      Benjamin Fitzgerald had been working for the M16 for fifthteen years now, he was trusted by allies and feared by enemies. He was a tall, skinny man with dark brown hair and shimmering green eyes. He was often sharply dressed in a suit, which was surprisingly good at concealing weapons. He was intelligent, as all spies should be, yet he lacked the common sense. He trusted people probably far too easily, and that would be his downfall. He was a part of a squadron known only as Lilac, it had a team of five people; Benji, Ollie, May, Harry and Connor. Benji's team always succeeded, until they got a job to take down a dangerous villain who goes by the name of Wolf. Their mission was to capture a weapon capable of killing millions of people at one push of a button. They had to locate him, find out his real identity and take him down before he has chance to put his weapon into action. Although, a week before the attack was supposed to take place, one of Benji's teammates were kidnapped and interrogated for information on the rest of the team's info and whereabouts, and also when the attack would take place. They had been informed about the attack and the team's personnel had been revealed. They had been betrayed, but by who?
    Benji would have to go home and live the rest of his life undercover, it wouldn't be much of a life, but he would be safe. Or, he could try and track down wolf, and find out who they is and what they want with the weapon. This would be illegal, braking several laws and if he was caught, he would be handed over to authorities and taken into custody. This was a chance he was willing to take. He dialed up his best friend and co-worker's number and shouted at the phone "Connor, tell the team that we're going in for another try."
