Chapter 11 - The Subway Attack

The days continued as usual for Ginger. In the morning, he woke up and prepared for college, enjoying breakfast with his family before heading off. He met up with Sean and they chatted for a while until their classes began. They studied diligently until noon. Ginger also had a private session with his teacher to catch up on any missed material, which he managed to do in just one week. Not only that, but he had already regained his position at the top of the rankings.

On the weekends, Ginger visited his brother's internet cafe to stay updated. A month passed without any major issues, not even a base problem like the one they encountered at the mall. The most interesting incident was a car chase, which Remy skillfully handled within minutes of receiving the order.

One morning, Ginger woke up with a sense of unease. Despite this feeling, he tried to continue his regular routine. Before leaving for college, he informed his brother about his unsettling premonition and urged him to be cautious. Remy took Ginger's warning seriously, recognizing that there was more to discover about their abilities and that they should not underestimate them.

As Ginger went about his day, he received a phone call from his brother during class. Answering the call discreetly, Ginger listened intently to Remy's urgent request.

"We need you. Can you come?" Remy asked, sounding hurried.

"Yes, where do you need me?" Ginger replied.

"I'll email you the address," Remy said.

"Okay, I'm on my way," Ginger confirmed. Without hesitation, he requested leave from his class, which was granted. He hurriedly retrieved his motorcycle and headed to the location his brother had emailed him. Spotting a light from a van nearby, Ginger entered to find Remy and two other team members, making a total of five including himself.

"Thanks for coming," Remy said. "I wouldn't ask if it wasn't urgent. Sorry to disturb you."

"It's okay. I've already learned the lesson material beforehand anyway," Ginger reassured his brother. "So, what happened?" he asked, curious to know the reason for their urgent summons.

"The police received a report that an attack is planned for today," Remy explained.

"What's the target?" Ginger inquired.

"That's what worries us. There's no specific location mentioned. They mentioned a code that the police are trying to crack, but there aren't many clues at the moment," Remy said, concern evident in his voice. "However, it seems they're planning to target a public transportation system," he added.

"So, you need my help to pinpoint the exact location of their attack," Ginger deduced.

"Yes, exactly. I need you to find the potential target," Remy confirmed.

"Understood. Take me to the possible locations," Ginger instructed.

"Got it," the driver replied.

They immediately set off, searching the potential target areas. Suddenly, Ginger felt the same sense of unease he had experienced earlier that morning. He asked the driver to stop the van, deciding to proceed alone. It was a crowded subway station, unusual for a weekday afternoon when it would typically be empty. Sensing something amiss, Ginger contacted his brother to inform him of the situation.

Upon receiving the report, Remy divided the team into three groups. One member remained in the van to monitor the overall condition of the subway, while the other two teams searched for any irregularities. Remy stayed behind in the van, utilizing his abilities to oversee the situation from a distance. Ginger was paired with Will, a person known as "an absolute average joe." Will was of average height, with black hair and wore a blue sweater and jeans. He was one of the individuals Remy had rescued from the slums—an orphan with no name. Despite his humble background, Will had proven to be a remarkable individual, excelling in his training and earning the respect of his peers through his encouraging nature.

As Ginger and Will explored the subway station, Remy noticed something peculiar. There were no workers present at the station. He immediately contacted the other teams, informing them of his discovery. The team that was closer to the staff office proceeded to investigate but found the room empty, with only vacant tables and chairs. They attempted to establish communication with the other teams but were met with silence. They also discovered that the door leading to the outside wouldn't budge, as if it had been locked from the other side.

Sensing the gravity of the situation, Ginger shared the updates with Will, and together they decided to explore further. Ginger used his heightened senses to scan the surroundings, searching for any signs of danger or abnormalities. As they delved deeper into the station, the absence of people became even more apparent. It felt eerily quiet and deserted.

Suddenly, they heard a faint noise echoing through the empty corridors—a muffled sound, like distant footsteps. Ginger and Will exchanged glances, their instincts telling them that trouble was approaching. They cautiously followed the sound, moving stealthily through the labyrinthine subway tunnels.

After navigating a maze of passages, they arrived at a dimly lit section where the noise grew louder. They peeked around a corner and witnessed a group of individuals dressed in dark attire, their faces obscured by masks. They were carrying suspicious-looking bags and appeared to be handling some sort of explosive devices.

Ginger's heart raced as he realized they had stumbled upon the group planning the attack. Without delay, he relayed the information to Remy, providing the precise location and details of the perpetrators. The urgency in his voice prompted Remy to take immediate action.

Meanwhile, Ginger and Will observed the situation, staying hidden and planning their next move. They devised a strategy to neutralize the threat and minimize the potential harm to innocent lives. They positioned themselves strategically, ready to spring into action.

Remy, receiving Ginger's message, swiftly coordinated the remaining team members. Their precise timing and coordinated effort were crucial in ensuring the safety of everyone involved. As Remy monitored the situation from the van, he provided tactical instructions to his team, guiding their movements.

In the depths of the dimension, the air grew thick with an eerie silence, broken only by the faint echoes of distant whispers. The team pressed forward, their senses heightened, and their hearts pounding with anticipation. Shadows danced menacingly, concealing the horrors that awaited them.

Ginger, leading the charge, navigated through the labyrinthine passages with a mix of caution and conviction. The path twisted and turned, testing their mettle at every step. The dim light cast eerie shadows on the grimy walls, revealing glimpses of grotesque graffiti and symbols of the criminal underworld.

As they ventured deeper, they encountered the deranged enforcers of the hidden dimension. Ruthless and remorseless, these henchmen embodied the darkest aspects of humanity.
