Breaking The Code: Bounty Hunter (Carnations Series #3)

♠140♣

Pilit kong pinakalma ang sarili, who wouldn't be scared? A sniper is currently pointing a gun at me!

Tumikhim ako para maitago ang takot at kaba ko "Are you a bounty hunter?" tanong ko at pinag-aralan ang suot niya "You look like a rich kid to me" sabi ko at tiningnan siya sa mata

"Why would I tell you?" sabi niya and his sniper and eyes followed me habang naglalakad para sumandal sa gilid ng rooftop

"Will you really kill them?" tanong ko at tiningnan ang metal steel bracelet na suot niya "Yes, kaya bumaba ka na and don't tell anyone or I'll shoot you" pagbabanta niya

"Funny. If I were a sniper, I would have shot the person who saw me" sabi ko "Well guess what princess? I'm the sniper here" sabi niya

"You are really doing this? Your being a paid assassin and murderer if you do this" Sabi ko and he seems taken aback

"How would you know, huh?" sabi niya at tinutok sakin ang cellphone kaya kita ko ang panlalaki ng mata niya "Your Agatha Ward" sabi niya kaya tumango ako

"So your still doing it?" tanong ko kaya ngumiti siya "Sayang ang $300,000,000" sabi niya and was about to pull the trigger ng mabilis kong tinabig ang sniper niya para lumipad ito palayo samin sabay suntok sa tsyan niya

"I'm getting that $300,000,000 and my mother back" sabi niya kaya kumunot ang noo ko pero nanlaki ang mata ko ng nagpalabas siya ng kutsilyo.

Ilag lang ako ng ilag habang umaatake siya and I got to make him unconcious by touching the vein on his neck kaya mahahabang hininga ang ginawa ko habang nakatingin sa nakahiga niyang katawan, I got my phone and dialed a familiar number

"Hello?" sabi niya "Nathan I found a sniper on your rooftop" sabi ko "What? What did you do this time?" sabi niya kaya kumunot ang noo ko, his saying it like I did something abnormal again

"See it for yourself" sabi ko bago binaba ang tawag, tiningnan ko ulit ang bracelet niya "Theodore Black" pagsambit ko sa pangalan niya na nakasulat sa bracelet.

[Dale's Point of View]

"What the heck do you think your doing?" tanong ko "I am trying to get access inside the game and this is the tenth time I failed" sabi niya na halata mong na stre-stress na sa ginagawa

"Even I can't handle it" sabi ni Aaron na nasa katabi niya at kaharap din ang computer

"Do you know someone who can help us?" tanong ko at mukhang nagiisip pa siya kaya binato ko siya ng unan "Wag mo kong lolokohin Aaron, your a retired FBI agent for pete's sake" sabi ko kaya tumawa siya

"Chill bro" sabi niya ng biglang may tumawag kaya sinagot niya ito sabay ng pag-ring din ng akin.

[Christine's Point of View]

I was busy hacking into the game ng biglang nag-ring ng sabay ang cellphone nila "Hello?" sabay nilang sabi kaya napailing ako, the first to speak was Aaron.

"What did he do this time?-"

"A sniper? They are really serious about this?-"

"Why did you even accept such mission? Your being a paid assassin for christ's sake!-"

"A retired Navy seal? He was targetting Trinity?-"

"Why would you even target a goddamn intern? Ano ba ang ginawa nun sayo?-"

"She was being assassinated? Wait, Agatha made the guy unconcious?-"

"What do you mean all of you are hostage?"

Palipat-lipat ang tingin ko sa kanila hanggang sa magkatinginan silang dalawa "I'm on the way" sabi nilang dalawa bago binaba ang tawag

"You don't perhaps know an Agatha Ward?" tanong ni Aaron "Yes I do, so are you going there?" tanong ni Dale "Yeah" sabi ni Aaron at tumayo kaya kumunot ang noo ko

"Wait, where are you going?" tanong ko "Isle Corporation" sabay nilang sabi bago lumabas ng pinto kaya mabilis ko silang hinabol, what are they going to do in a billionaire's company? And who the heck is Agatha Ward?

[Agatha's Point of View]

"Do we really need to call a friend of theirs?" tanong ni Trinity ng ilayo ni Gabriel ang cellphone sa tenga ng lalaki

"Yes and this is the part where we'll meet one of their comrade" sabi ni Gabriel at ngumisi pa "Your crazy" sabi ni Trinity and gave him a weird look

"Papunta na dito sa kuya" sabi ni Drake kaya tumango kami "So ganito pala ang itsura ng mga bounty hunters that wants us dead" sabi ni Trinity habang nakatingin sa limang kalalakihan na nakatali

"They are lucky though, if they kill all of us, they have a big sum of money" sabi ko habang umiiling "Then bounty hunters are really that powerful to have a sniper for one of their player" sabi ni Nathan kaya tumango ako bilang sangayon

"What is the name of the guy you called?" tanong ni Gabriel pero hindi siya pinansin ng lalaki kaya laking gulat ko ng sinapak siya ni Gabriel

"What the hell? Do you even need to slap him?" tanong ni Trinity na halata mong nagulat sa ginawa niya "What? I'm playing good cop, bad cop here" sabi ni Gabriel kaya hinila na siya palayo ni Drake

"I'm so sorry, kakatakas lang niya sa mental" sabi ni Drake sa lalaki at linagyan ng ducktape ang bunganga ni Gabriel at tinali sa upuan

"That will make you shut up" sabi ni Drake ng matapos ang ginagawa niya kay Gabriel "Who's the name of the guy you called?" tanong ni Drake pero agad ko siyang linayo

"I'm sorry but I suggest you answer because you don't want to see a billionaire's wrath, don't you?" sabi ko at tiningnan si Nathan na nakasandal sa desk niya habang naka-krus ang braso at mukhang natakot ang lalaki

"Aaron, Aaron Stanford" sabi niya "Aaron Stanford?" napalingon ako kay Drake ng magsalita siya at kita mo ang pagkagulat sa mukha niya kaya kumunot ang noo ko

"You know him?" tanong ko "Of course I know him, he's my brother's-" napatigil sa pagsasalita si Drake ng biglang may bumukas ng pinto and they walked in like in a runway but what caught my attention more is the man beside him.
