Chapter 8 - Claudius is in trouble!

The line cuts off when Claudius was speaking. The three girls panicked a bit as it showed on their faces.

Equinox tries to call him as more than enough for the man to know something bad happened.

It's just ringing Equinox and now he knows something went wrong because Claudius would never do this prank on him. He always makes sure that Claudius knows the boundary of Joking

He knows there is a limit on jokes Nox muttered without being conscious about it.

He texted and called Aquila thrice as well and with a really worried voice.

Young Master what is the matter is there something bad happens?.

I am currently sleeping when you call. I thought it was the alarm that said sorry I didn't pick up your call.

Aquila, Can you check Claudius' location and track his car. Please make it fast! The authoritative voice of Equinox.

Okay, I'll just put my phone on the loudspeaker and open my laptop.

With fast movements Aquila works his way to track Claudius' device and car.

Young Master, The last location the car was in was on Highway 69 near the covered passageway or tunnel which is not the route he usually used. It's far from our office and his home. His phone location was also stopped in this location.

His plan was to go directly to the office based on the GPS that was turned on inside the car.

Can you tell me what he was doing before the signal stopped, said Nox.

(All of them here how fast Aquila was typing on his laptop).

Cloud was sending files to your email, it was stopped and intercepted.

Wait Boss they are trying to delete the files on his cellphone. I Will try to make sure that it was copied on my device.

I have Installed a layer of protection on his device without him knowing.

Equinox looked at him with a serious face.

Young master, Cloud loves to save things on his phone. I already warned him before that the files he has that's important should be stored properly so it won't be hacked.

Eula and her friends are puzzled how this man works.

I will hack down a few government websites for this Boss, "Do I have your support on this?" Aquila said.

Yes, you have full permission . As Aquila received permission and support he just breathed and stretched his arms and started working.

He works typing so fast with the codes and there are a lot of pop-up windows appearing in the monitor of his laptop even the three girls were amazed on how he is working his way on hacking to track where Claudius is.

Every minute counts and everyone is focused on how they are gonna help.

Louise and Nathalie text the girls and ask their friend Brielle she is a Deputy Chief of the police which is really helpful since this connection will help them to locate Claudius much faster.

I hope Brie will answer said Nathalie

Hello, Brie. This is Nathalie, I have Louise and Eula with me who were in trouble. We have a friend who was kidnapped. Can you help us Brie?

Can you tell me the last location so we can set a perimeter checkpoint? Brie asked

The last location the car was in was on Highway 69 near the covered passageway or tunnel

I will call the unit right away just wait a second, Brie called someone on the telephone and get in touch with them

Hello Nathy can you tell me the time of last conversation and the car that your friend was using?.

Were here at my resto but our friend was not with us he's in the coffee shop and was driving to go back in the office and that's it the line got cut out and his not responding any more we got worried he's phone is fully charge his car was Porsche Cayenne the color was dark blue color. I remember the plate number JCG-1027-N. This is Eula, sorry we are in contact with an emergency and I miss you so much Brie.

Euls, We're totally worried about you. Do you want me to punish Declan? In secret can we do that?. I just pull strings for you, we have your back, I'm sorry I cannot go to Nathalie's restaurant since I have tons of paperwork and meetings. I got promoted to this new position.

Eula awkwardly smiled since she and Nox had their eyes met for a second and they tried to look in a different direction afterwards.

I will make sure to give a party after this and make it up to all of you gals! I already set up a checkpoint to a 4 mile radius.

Hope you'll see your friend soon. May I know the name of the person we are looking for, His name is Claudius Blues.

Thank you Brie! Said Eula

Equinox was stunned how many connections Eula had; he was curious about knowing her other friends and they can be trusted as well.

Meanwhile, Claudius was in a deep sleeping state since he was drugged and he was just dropped in a Government Package Delivery Van. Four men with an unknown origin speak to one another.

We will be paid Handsomely for this man said the man in the black hooded jacket

Hey! you should focus on decrypting his phone. We also need to delete and clean the files, said the man on the driver seat.

Bro you should just chill for a while, he's working on it, says the man who has a gun in his hand.

The phone has a tight security system. Whoever hacked this phone is really a genius or not a master, said the man wearing eyeglasses.

Every time I try to bypass it another layer of protection pops out. The files here must be more important than the owner of the phone. We can get more money from it. I highly doubt that he didn't install the protection on his phone. He looked like the guy who doesn't know how dangerous hackers are.

The files that we are trying to delete are uploaded to the hackers device.

Then just destroy the phone completely. Give it to me! ordered by the man on the driver seat.

We just can't throw it out said the man in black hooded jacket

You think that will help us! said the man who holds the gun.

They continue bickering to one another and and they slowly drive now they currently see a checkpoint signage even though there are 5 or so cars in front of them . The cars fall in line while they check the vehicles on the road. There are more than 15 or so officers they are seeing and they are all holding a flashlight.

Why is there a checkpoint here said the man in the driver seat.

Shit! It must be the hacker who contacted the police by using the phone. Damn we're in trouble, said the man wearing eyeglasses with a worried expression.

We should just throw the phone out in the car earlier, said the man in the black hooded jacket.

We can't get caught. I will try to pull back and go on a different road said the man in the driver seat.

Man! I trust your driving skills but can you think you can still pull over said the man with a gun who's now tightening his grip on the gun.

The guy on the driver tried to pull over but didn't get successful.

Let's try another option by breaking in "Hold on to anything!"

The car moved to another lane and drove pass-through the police officers and the barriers caused multiple injuries on the police officers and damages to the cars.

The Package Delivery Van moved fast enough to escape but did not see the tank truck full of fuel and crash directly to the tanker truck that had 5,500 to 11,600 gallons of fuel the impact and collision damage is imminent at both sides the tanker driver was still inside but get out right away to safety.

So the police tried to talk to them using a megaphone to surrender and warn them to not do anything stupid.

Slowly, the three people get out of the van, one in the black hooded jacket, the one in the driver seat and the unconscious Claudius that the two men carried and suddenly a man with a gun points the gun directly in Claudius' head.

The other two were shocked by the man with the gun they're still holding unconscious Claudius.

Hey! Man don't be crazy were already surrounded, put the gun down whispered by the man on the driver seat.

Don't move or I will kill this man here he looked at the police still pointing the gun unmoved on Claudius head.

Meanwhile, the man in eyeglasses try to escape and the man with the gun got surprised and shut the man with glasses but what he did not expect was that the bullet ricochet to the wall and struck or hit the vessel of the tanker truck little they know that there is short circuit below the van started due to the crash.

The fuel already going out of the vessel and within a minute or two a loud

(BOOM)

The whole area was completely obliterated and the police officers were all down. It looked like a movie scene but it's not scripted but it's reality.

Many people heard the ear piercing sound and it really can destroy eardrums. There is fire everywhere and it's really a huge destruction that leaves a massive trauma on the human body.

You will hear gasping sounds all over many rescuer arrived fast due to the call they received from one of the police officer

Firefighter arrived at the scene and extinguished the fire quickly. The smoke and gas vapors and fumes is dangerous so the firefighters were all wearing Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA).

The police screamed at the firefighters that there were five men that needed attention. The blast was huge so they did not think anyone survived.

Luckily, They saw a man raise his hand and his back received third degree burns. He flew a lot of distance so there might be damage to his spinal cord.

But the man tried to speak but closed his eyes.

They also found other 4 people who severely burned some lost limbs and (2) two people who died before arriving at the hospital.

Brie called back with bad news to Nathalie's phone. Here is the conversation.

Hello, Nathalie Is everyone with you? after 5 hours of wait

Yes, we're all still in the restaurant, Nathalie said. Everyone looked at Nathalie as she put the phone on video and loudspeaker.

They are all feeling worried and exhausted, especially Equinox and Aquila still on his computer typing and working on codes.

Eula, I want you to know we found your friend and the kidnappers but there is an accident that happens and you all needed to go to the St. Michaels Hospital immediately said Brie

I don't know if he's alive or not since their reports are not yet polished. The doctors are already working on saving the victims and suspects. Please go as fast as you could to the hospital to help on Recognizing or Identifying the victim Brie's voice is shaking too as she speaks.

Equinox's face turned pale and blank even Aquila stopped tapping the keys of the keyboard for a minute or two trying to process what's happening and it's visible that he is shaking but he continues to work on the laptop.

All of them were shocked, only Louise tried to speak for a moment.

Eula and Equinox you now need to go!. We will be alright here said Louise

Yes, I already closed the shop for today so don't worry I will stay with Louise.

They got back to their feet and moved fast to get into St. Michaels Hospital.

Nox, Drive fast as he could. They see a lot of ambulances dropping victims as fast as possible so they can seek immediate medical care.

There are a lot of police officers in the Emergency Room. It's total chaos. They try to look for Claudius but at the moment the only thing they can do is wait and check.

Claudius might be in one of the Operating Room, said Eula.

Nox just did not move; he's also shocked. He just talked to Claudius this morning and now he doesn't know if he is alive or not.

Is there always a light after the dark tunnel?
