" Are we finally at the right place?" Ben asked.
" I think we are, Sorry, It was my mistake." Yelena chuckled.
They were near a place that looked like an abandoned part of the city of some kind of ruins. They started to walk inside the town, Yelena was alert while Ben put something like a mini car on the ground and the released same insect-like cameras in the sky, he wore his glasses and started to monitor the area.
It started to show the way ahead so they could avoid any kind of ambush on themselves. Yelena didn't ask what it was and just followed alongside Ben. Soon Ben spotted something on his glasses and stopped.
" They have long-range guns, We better be stealthy." He warned as he saw a man keeping watch over a certain place and he had a gun in his hand.
Ben took out what looked like a pistol and put several disks that Yelena had used once on Conan.
" Let's figure out how many there are, we can not let even one of them escape."
Ben sent a mini robot into the place which was being protected by the man, it captured several images of people being there. It didn't take too long for him to figure out everything inside that place.
" There are no hostages or they might be kept somewhere else. These guys are using guns as weapons, almost everyone has one with them. I will first knock out that man who is keeping the watch here, there is a large opening over a wall we can enter from there to initiate an ambush." Ben explained.
" Don't you think there is something wrong with this?" Yelena asked. " Check the other buildings as well before taking action, if the hostages are not here then they might be in another building being protected by thier other group."
The flying mini-robots left the building of that place and entered others. After inspecting some of them Ben finally found a group just as Yelena said somewhere near the border of the ruins.
" We should go from the left, they are not focusing there. All we have to do is first secure the hostages, then this is just a walk in the park for me, they don't look to be that strong."
Just as Yelena had decided, Ben and she moved from the right while trying to not get spotted by the man. They reached the place where the hostages were supposed to be kept.
Ben had already mapped everything and had told Yelena about how to proceed. Soon Yelena left Ben's side and ran towards the direction where the guards were unable to see them.
She soon spotted one of the guards in front of him, Only for it to be distracted by Ben when he threw a flash grenade in an open area. The guard looked through the scope however the next second he was knocked by Yelena with a hit on his head.
[ Now, Go Inside, there are two ways to reach the upper floor, you take the stairs from the front.] Ben said through a communication device.
Yelena was following the instructions carefully, Ben guided her to the place where she could easily spot the people who were kept hostages while being hidden. ' They are keeping a tight watch.' Yelena waited for Ben to come.
[ Now, go and free the hostages, I will distract them.] Suddenly a huge blast occurred which collapsed one of the walls.
" Intruders." Someone among the criminals said.
" Use the hostages! Report to the others." Another said.
Ben successfully diverted everyone's attention towards the blast, just after that, a consecutive blast occurred. Ben sneaked from one of the places he had to determined to be not in the view of the criminals.
He could see Yelena approaching the place where the hostages were. Unfortunately, they still didn't get distracted enough for Yelena to intervene. One wrong move may lead to a death that they didn't want to occur.
[ Do it, Yelena.] Just as Ben said those words some of the criminals started to fall one by one due to electric shock. It was Ben who had fired using his new gun, the guards started to panic they had already called for the backup so Yelena moved as soon as that happened.
" Die!" She said as she beheaded one of them and then moved to attack the other.
" Kill the hostages." A panicked criminal said. However, it was too late there were not many of them and they were getting knocked one by one. Ben finally took down the last one and ended things for them.
" Quickly let's leave the building. Their backup is coming. "
" Hey, you guys, follow us, we will save you," Yelena said as she cut open the chains binding the people.
" Thank you." One of the hostages said
" Keep Moving." She instructed ignoring the thanks and gratitude, " Carry the ones who can not move."
" Please, Please, they took my sister please help. She was with us but they took her." A boy begged.
" How many of you have been taken hostages in other places?" She asked.
" They only took her." Another hostage answered.
" Sorry, but we have to get all of you to safety first." She instructed.
" No, please save her as well." The boy pleaded.
" We can't—."
" I will go save that Girl, You boy move with her." Ben came towards Yelena and told the boy.
" What? There are two many of them." She said, " You are courting death."
" It will cost me a lot but I can save her, I have a plan." He said.
