Adrenaline was pumping inside Ares's system. He had never been this excited in his life. At last, he will definitely seize Pendragon's most notorious thief. The predator will finally catch its prey.
Muli niyang tinapakan ang silinyador. His car revved up to one hundred fifty kilometers per hour. He could feel his blood boil in exhilaration. Pinaghandaan talaga nila ito nang husto. Everything was well planned and every bit of detail was properly executed.
He pasted a nasty grin on his face. He was confident that he'll finally subdue Vermilion. Behind him were his own battalion; fifteen police cars, sixty fully armed men, and five special agents. Luck was definitely on his side this time.
Muli niyang tiningnan ang cellphone. It was now attached on the dashboard. For several hours, sinundan nila ang location ni Vermillion. The thief kept jumping from one place to another, marahil sinisuguro nito an walang makakasunod dito. But he was wrong. Because right now, handang-handa na silang sugurin ang kuta nito.
The signal stopped in a harbour located at the outskirts of Camelot. Punong-puno ang lugar na iyon ng mga bodega, a perfect place to stash some of the stolen paintings. Kutob niya'y makikita at mare-recover din nila ang mga nauna nang nanakaw nito.
This will be a sweet victory for him. Another trophy bagged for his collection.
"We're approaching the place. Turn off the sirens," he said as they approach the last ten kilometer stretch.
Agad namang sumunod ang mga tauhan niya.
"We'll go on foot once we hit the 200 meter mark," he said.
Stealth and reconnaissance was his specialty. Sneaking inside unnoticed will never be a problem. They definitely have the element of surprise.
He stopped his car. It was the perfect time to put an end to this.
He pulled one of his pistols from the car's compartment saka lumabas ng sasakyan.
Clad in their Special Weapons And Tactics uniform, his men were all ready for this operation.
"Men the boundaries."
He signalled twenty of his men to move-out.
"Snipers, position!"
Agad namang humanap ng kanilang posisyon ang kanyang mga snipers.
"Superintendent, follow me!"
His fleet immediately dispersed. They covered the perimeter of the large building.
He looked at his phone. The signal indicated that the Vermillion was in there.
He ticked his headset.
"Alpha company, move out," he silently commanded.
Their plan was very simple. The special agents including him will go inside the building. They'll try to analyze the situation from the inside. Then, they'll lock in the target. That's when the real fun shall start. Napaliligiran na rin ng mga tauhan niya ang paligid ng lugar. Several snipers were already in their positions. All of them were ready to kill in case of heavy retaliation.
He climbed on to the nearest window. Dahan-dahan siyang naglakad sa paligid ng lugar. It was dark there, only the brightness of the moon illuminated the place.
The place was vacant as well. Wala siyang makita o maramdaman na naroon.
He waited for an additional half a minute, hoping to take a visual on Vermillion. But almost five minutes have past yet there were still no signs of the thief.
