Chapter 45 - PREYS VS PREYS — ACT 14 : TRAPPED

The same day as the previous chapter at the Abandoned Hospital...

Flashback a few minutes before the explosion from the previous chapter...

Donovan, Shinji and Angeline gets off of the car, the search team is already there patiently waiting for them.

Great, seems like they have some brains in their skulls after all. They've obeyed me, good... because, I have no use on people who can't even obey a simple command. Angeline said arrogantly.

Angeline takes the center of attention.

Listen up! Madame Angeline have something to say! Donovan said authoritatively.

Alright, let's have a clear view of our plan first before we put it into action. Why? Because, I hate failures. And whoever fails in their respective task here will be disposed off on the spot! Angeline said authoritatively Donovan, how many agents have you picked for this search team? Angeline asks expectantly.

I've picked 25 people, Madame. Donovan said coldly.

20, huh... Angeline said sarcastically, observing the layout of the Abandoned Hospital It just have 1 building with 5 floors. Clearly, there is a lot of rooms to explore there...It will be a little too hard to find them. But luckily, since we have an even number, we can easily track them down! Angeline said confidently And we have a full proof plan to succeed in this operation either, the only way that can jeopardize everything is if someone here dares to act with stupidity. And whoever tries to do so...will suffer consequences. Angeline said coldly.

We are running out of time, Angeline! Please explain to them the final plan already! Shinji said hesitantly.

Shut up, bastard! I know. In case you forgot, you've agreed that I will be the one who will take charge in this temporary alliance...So, you have no right to dictate me. Angeline said authoritatively.

"It might be the right decision for saving Arata but sometimes I just regretted seeking help with her our enemy." Shinji taught to himself.

Alright, this is the details of the plan, so you better listen well! Angeline said authoritatively.

The agents salutes in unison.

The first phase of the plan is to set Shinji's explosives in the perimeter of this Area that we are standing right now! The purpose is to create a diversion and potentially drawing them out of the room they are in right now. This is a significant mive because we can potentially find the room where they are holding Arata and Lori as captives! Angeline said authoritatively The second phase, we have two potential scenarios for this that's why the first phase is important! The two scenarios likely being this two. First, we failed to draw them out of the room... If we failed to do so, then we will separately going to look for them! We will built a 5 people team out of you all 20 agents here, 5 will look in the first floor, 5 in the second, so on and so forth! The three of us Me, This moron here and Donovan will take the fifth floor. Whoever found them first, you will have to update using the walkie talkie! So,we can condict another surprise attack of cornering them and outnumbering them! Even so,we can't underestimate them even if we have the advantage on numbers and element of surprise, I know Granger pretty well! She'll either use force or she have already anticipated this and come up with countermeasures, so be careful along the way! Second scenario, that will be the fact that we successfully lure them out of the room. If that happens this will be our course of action, 10 agents will take the staircase on east wing and 10 on the west, the three of us will take the one in the center! That's it! Angeline said authoritatively The final phase, well the confrontation...god only knows what we'll do or what will happen there...I haven't planned out about that. That's why we need to be cautious! That's all about the plan, let's commence it immediately! Angeline said coldly.

Understood! Everyone said in unison.

"I am glad that she considered adding the bombing plan that I have proposed into her strategy." Shinji taught to himself, with a smile.

Alright, get ready! Plant the bombs, we'll start the first phase! Angeline said authoritatively.

I'll lead the charge here, can I? Shinji asks warily I am always with Arata from the planning of our bombings up until the executions, that also includes the phase where we plant the bombs. Shinji said hesitantly.

Fine, you have a point go on! Angeline said arrogantly.

They've started planting the provided bombs from Shinji into the said parameters by Angeline that has been led by Shinji.

After a few minutes of setting up, they've finally finished.

We're done, Angeline! Shinji said confidently.

Good, 10 go to the east wing and prepare to go upstairs already same goes for another 10 for the west wing! Go upstairs slowly but surely, once I signalled. Angeline said authoritatively.

Angeline throws a binoculars on Donovan, he catches it swiftly.

Donovan, we'll be responsible for observing the floors! I'll take the fourth and fifth floor, you take the second and third. Obviously, the first floor or the ground area won't be an odeal choice for holding people captive. Angeline said coldly.

Understood, Madame! Donovan said calmly.

Shinji, you'll detonate the bombs once I signalled you to do so. Angeline said coldly.

I got it, I am prepared! Shinji said confidently.

Good. Angeline said arrogantly Let me tell the both of you something first, the reason why I already positioned them there even if it's not on the plan is because I can already anticipate that the second scenario will likely open, I am sure that Granger will send Tatsuhiro and Spinner to locate the source of it, Anticipating that it was an attack from us. Spinner and Tatsuhiro in turn will definitely split up to find the source of the noise...that is where this strategy will go. Angeline said coldly.

You've really taught about this, one step ahead. Shinji said enthusiastically.

Of course, I won't let this mission to fail. Angeline said enthusiastically.

"Madame Angeline has changed into this kind of person because of her loss against Arata, she finally learned now how to not underestimate her opponents too much, create contingency plans, and further developing her skills. I am glad that you have finally realized that you are flawed despite your brilliance and learned from it." Donovan taught to himself.

Now, SHINJI! Angeline said arrogantly, a menacing grin forming in her face.

Right away! Shinii said enthusiastically, immediately pressing the detonator.

After a few moments...

There! That's them! Angeline said coldly.

She immediately signalled her team to go upstairs in their respective places.

It's time! Let's run into our space too! Tatsuhiro and Spinner came out in a room in the fifth floor that means that the likelihood that they are in one of the rooms in the fifth floor is high, what even more accurate is that when they are really inside that room where they came out! Let's go! Angeline said authoritatively.

Going back to present...

What floor are we now? Angeline asks coldly.

Currently at third floor, Madame! Donovan said confidently.

Hurry up! Let's run faster! Angeline said with urgency.

"Just wait Arataz we're almost there! I am coming for you, you'll definitely be free soon enough." Shinji taught to himself.
