"I have a job for you." The employer says over the phone.

"Yeah, what is it?" Jeth asked seriously.

"A gang faction was occupying this warehouse that contains huge cache of crystals being transferred illegally across the globe and I want you to eliminate the gang so that the authorities could get inside and retrieve the stash without any trouble."

"Right, we'll be ready for that one but you have to tell us first who we are facing."

"Silver Surfer Gang, headed by Antonio Gomez."

"Antonio Gomez? You mean the most wanted fugitive of the FBI?"

"Yes. I believe that you and your team could finish the job effectively. I am counting on you. Make me proud." The employer says as he cut off the conversation.

Jeth glanced at Jem and Eric as they work on with the console in front of them.

"You heard the guy." Jeth says. "Let's move."

"Antonio Gomez?! You guys seriously think we could defeat that guy I mean he's got an army!" Jem says.

"Yeah so what? We could take them down effectively."

"Yeah you know what? I'm gonna call Blackshot."

"Don't call him. Stop bringing up the guy in our conversation. We can't waste another second. Let's move." Jeth says, finishing the conversation.

"Right." Jem says as he got in to the driver's seat.

Blackshot was deployed once again in the corporate city of Makati. The whole city was occupied by a Megacorp which was under the RSID's surveillance.

Blackshot was standing in front of Sohiko Corp's building. He watched every person around him, memorizing all the faces who were entering the building, the security guards, and the employees.

He could easily identify the employees just by looking at them. The IDs hanging around their necks which displays the corps' names makes it look obvious.

Blackshot walked inside the building. He immediately avoided the security guard who was inspecting each visitors by stepping away from the crowd.

Blackshot glided through the crowd undetected. He walked further inside the building and approached an elevator situated deeper inside the building.

He passes by the corporate dogs around him. Slaves of power hungry gluttons. He thought.

As soon as he reached the elevator, he pressed the Up button on the side of the closed elevator.

The elevator opened wide. Six people were waiting behind Blackshot. He raced inside and pressed the close button, letting no one inside. He shook his head at them, motioning them to stay away.

Blackshot pressed the 26th floor and waited for the elevator to ascend to the chosen floor.

"Alright, we're here." Jem says. "We better dodge the blade of the guillotine, if you get my meaning." He added.

The team dropped off a few feet away from the warehouse where the crystals were being hidden. Jeth led the team, rifle-first.

The team carefully walked inside the open gates of the warehouse. Jeth spied four men guarding the front lawn.
