Chapter 38 - The rescue

Diana body trembled as all the cool looking guys from earlier, had a grim expression on, each loading different types of rifles. They look so serious and bloodthirsty.

Inside the helicopter isn't like the normal one she has boarded, the seats aren't assembled in the normal vertical sets, instead, there is only one long iron bench each at both sides, the space in the middle were filled with some weird bags which contain different types of fighting equipment, as well as lots of bullets.

She was stuck at a corner, feeling useless as she was all wrapped up to prevent the AC triggering her cold, she watched them busied themselves with their stuff, filling almost all the spare space in their outfit with different type of fighting equipment.

Something inside her tells what she just sign up for isn't gonna be funny, she wondered if she's really up to this, but then, her eyes darted toward Aroma's direction. She recalled how one kick from her sexy slim leg knock down a man she couldn't even slap his hand off her.

Yes! she wanted to be like that, she wanted to be strong, brave and cool like her, she wanted to walk with confidence and not get taken advantage of, not that anyone wants to in an abusive way, she has her ugly look to chase them anyway.

But she really wants to get her mother from that man, she wants to give freedom to her foster parents and thank them genuinely for their help, for not losing it despite her bratty attitude, trying to gain equal attention as their biological child.

She owes them that much, she needs to be strong, 'yes Diana, you can do it, within a few months, you will be as cool as this woman and get back your mother, as well as kill that bastard.' Diana assured herself inwardly. She should be glad those guys couldn't read her mind, they will surely curse at her for her confident, 'be like Aroma within few months,' it will be the funniest joke they've ever heard in their whole lives.

Aroma who has been feeling her stare at her, look up to meet her determined gaze and smile, before stuffing few daggers inside her boots and relax on her seat, she's all set.

Nathan remain in the same position, his hands crossed above his chest. He knew he would meet Ethan today, he's not sure if alive or dead, but he knew those guys wouldn't just kill him unless Ethan tried to fight back, which he doubted.

He could already tell Ethan is using this opportunity to lure him out, he's not sure if he could maintain this nonchalant facade if he come face to face with him.

He could avoid meeting him this time, but for once in a very long time, he actually felt the same fear as her family. He's a dangerous man and Ethan is very persistent on finding him, 'what if he really get killed in the process?'

Which is why he decided to meet him and get him off his back once and for all, he couldn't afford to take the risk anymore. He couldn't afford to lose him.

....

At a wide base in a certain area in Sheffield town, Ethan was tied to a chair; looking calm and collected, despite the bruises all over him. Despite the pain he felt all over, his mind is only glued on one thought, 'Nathan will show up.' He refuses to believe that Nathan will not show up.

Before they brought him here, he overheard their conversation about the so called cooperation agreeing to deliver the requested armory and get him from them.

'He will show up right?' He asked in his head and already preparing not to be useless, he wouldn't confidently chase after a dangerous man without making some preparation of his own, he attended different combat training and even went to the army.

Those shackle binds tying his hands behind his back can't hold him down, yes he couldn't fight his way out; as those people are heavily armed, but he's not so useless to get captured easily, he could have avoided the caption if he wishes to in the first place.

"They are here!" One of the axe men said and immediately, five men pointed their guns toward Ethan, the others ready for war as well, which they doubted will happen, course they got their boss anyway.

Ethan was already losing his cuffs from behind, the custom button of his wrist cuff is already in his hand, he pressed the small surface on the button, and the normal round tip of the button transform into a pointy nail like iron.

The big truck was stopped far from where they held Ethan in the open, enough for them to see the guns pointing to his head and make them realize a single wrong move from them, and their boss will be gone.

No one came down from the truck. The leader gesture for some of his men to check if the armories are intact.

Ten men walked closer to the truck, the driver raised his hand in the air with a calm expression, indicating that they are free to check.

Immediately they unlocked the big iron door of the truck, they all stood frozen, their gun falling off their hands. Aroma look at them with a smirk as she retracted her hands to her sides.

"I told you I don't sell my armories to idiots who deal with terrorists, why is that so hard for you to accept?" Nathan mocking tone was heard, as he came down from the truck.

While the axe men were still figuring why the voice sound so familiar, Nathan snipers are already set and had their targets in sight from afar.

Nathan had refused to deal with the axe, after finding out that they resell them to some crazy terrorist who are madly killing the innocent. And one thing about terrorists is that you never know where their next target is, and for someone who has loved ones, they should be smart enough to not aid such people.

Yet, these men are adamant, they even wanted to get it for free by abducting their assumed him, who turns out to be his brother.

Nathan walked in front of the truck with a big grin on his face. "Hello idiot!" He greeted the boss who still couldn't believe his eyes.

"F*ck! We got a doppelganger!" The boss exclaimed, "kill them!" He added, but before his men could do anything, those who are killed by the sniper were killed, while those who tasted Aroma's deadly inventions did.

Nathan smiled mischievously, "you got my brother idiot! Kill them all." He also instructed.

Ethan, who had uncuffed himself, with a fast speed, pushed himself away from the chair and the idiots who wanted to shoot him got showered with some bullets and crashed onto the floor.

It didn't take long before the men were all dead, and Nathan who has paralyzed their leader with his one flick technique snapped his neck, "go to their main base and kill them all!" He instructed.

He walk toward Ethan who was staring at him from where he sat on the floor, "hello brother." He said, reaching out his hand and helping him to his feet.
