JACE's POV

I took a deep breath as I stared at the building in front of me. It has been three years since the last time I last stepped foot inside it and it kinda felt weird to be back. I'm currently at the headquarters of ET VINDEX which was located on top of the mountains.

It was a four-story building covered by tall trees. Not just that. The whole mountain was restricted one so people aren't allowed to even close.

I eyed the symbol of ET VINDEX which was carved on the top part of the entrance of the building. When I left the organization three years ago, I didn't have any plans of coming back because I was determined to start anew without their meddling.

In my mind back then, my priority was my family. I thought, I made the right decision but it costed the life of our son which prompted my wife to leave me. But now that Christine and I finally got back together, the circumstances were unexpected which left me with no choice but to seek the help of the organization.

Now, I'm one of them again.

I huffed before finally entering inside. Some of our agents saw me and the surprise look on their faces was clear, but quickly became formal. They greeted me and I nodded my head as a response.

The number of special agents in the organization reaches around 20 only because choosing agents is not an easy task. They're personally handpicked by the bosses of the organization because of their skills and knowledge not to mention connection.

These agents are one of a kind and underwent dangerous and special kinds of training just to be qualified to such kind of work.

Aside form being one of the bosses, I chose to participate on the job too so I became an agent. It wasn't full time though because I had a lot of work that I needed to do at my company.

"Welcome back, Slate. Jinn is expecting you in his office." I looked at my right side and saw Red. A tight smile speared on my face. She was wearing a red hoodie. She really is boyish most of the time. Until now, I still can't believe that she would be one of the agents of the organization.

"I can't believe that I'm actually here again." I answered and then released a breath. She chuckled and then walked towards.

"I knew you'd come back. Anyway, this is my welcome gift for you." I raised my eyebrows at her as I eyed what she was holding out. It was a Glock 19. The corner of my lips twitched and then accepted the gift. I looked at every detail of it.

"Thanks. It's been a while since I last held a gun."

"Well, I have a lot of guns in my collection. If you want, I can give you another one." She offered. I chuckled. She really loves collecting different kinds of guns. She even has grenades and bombs. Well, she's not a defense contractor for nothing.

"Why do I feel like I'm going to a war right away on my first day here?" I couldn't help but to get amused. She crossed her arms across her chest.

"Well, you will definitely use that later for sure. Knowing you, patience is not in your vocabulary." She even tsked a couple of times.

"What do you mean?"

"My tongue is itching to tell you everything but I'm sure, Jinn won't like that. Just go inside his office. He's waiting for you. Anyway, the other bosses are not here right now so it's just you and Jinn."
