Chapter 8 - CHAPTER EIGHT

As the clock struck 10am, Meri's phone started to ring. She looked at the screen and saw that it was an unknown number. She answered the call, her heart racing. "Hello?" she said, her voice trembling. A cold, deep voice responded. "Good morning, Ms. Williams. I have some information that might interest you." Meri felt her stomach drop. She knew that voice. It was Mr. Smith. Okay" she replied" I know what you're looking for." Mr. Smith said, his voice cold and emotionless. "And I know where it is. Meet me at the Grand Park at 12 noon. If you're not there, I'll assume you're not interested." Meri was speechless. She didn't know what to say. She looked at Theo, who was sitting next to her. "What should we do?" she asked, her voice small and scared. Theo took a deep breath. "We have to go." It seems like the time went faster this time and Meri's heart kept pounding even though she was determined on what she wanted to do immediately Tom came in "I have been able to hack into the primal security cameras now we can watch them from. Listen Meri I want you to put this on" gives her a pod and also gave one to Theo " this will help us to be in touch with each other" he concludes and they all puts it pod on and it beeps a green light and they all node to each other. As it was 11:30am, Theo and Tom drives To the Grand park to meet with the secret agents leaving Meri behind to watch their back from the computer from Theo's room. As Meri watched the screens, her heart was pounding. She watched as Theo and Tom approached the Grand Park. They were dressed in all black, and they looked nervous. "Can you see anything?" Meri asked, her voice shaking. Theo's voice came through the pod. "We're almost there. We'll let you know when we see him." Meri's hands were shaking as she watched the screens. "Please be careful." She whispered, but she knew that Theo couldn't hear her. Meri's heart sank as she saw her mother being dragged out of the car. She was bound and gagged, and her eyes were filled with fear. "Mom!" Meri cried out, but she knew her mother couldn't hear her. Mr. Smith turned to face her, a cruel smile on his face. "Now, boys, I believe we have a deal." Meri's breath caught in her throat. She knew she had to do something, but she didn't know what. Then, she had an idea. "Okay on three, one, two, three!" Mr. Smith pushed Mrs. Williams to them and got the flash as well and they tried to leave immediately the agents Drew out their guns on them "not so fast boys, at least we will have to taste the flash and see if we are having a fair deal here. The agent that checked the flash nodes in affirmation "okay boys I think we are done here let move" Mr. Smith says to his men as they all went inside their cars "okay guys you have to move fast! To the primal council meeting" Meri tells them as Meri's mom and Tom enters in front of the truck and Theo climes to the back "what are you guys up to!? You really need to call the cops immediately! And were is my daughter?" She asks and concludes with fear and troubled heart "take this and speak to your daughter just know she is fine and right now you just have to trust us do what ever we ask Ma'am" Tom concludes as he ignites the car engine and drove off with speed "are you already mom? Did they hit you? " Meri asks the mom from the pod "no sweetie, I'm fine and how have you been?" She asks" I'm fine mom everything is going to be fine but I really need you to trust my friends this time please" she concludes as she was already full of tears. The mom nods and went on "okay I trust you honey, please try to keep me updated on whatever you are doing, I love you and your father loves you too." Meri smiles as she says "I love you too mom and everything is going to be fine" she hangs up and she got a text from Theo "I see you know a lot about computers" Theo's text read and Meri replies "hehe! You don't have to be surprised" she concludes. As the agents were about two kilometers away they discovered that the flash drive was fake as the coding all disappeared and immediately they all reverses their cars can went after them and after some few minutes speeding drive, the sighted the truck from after and drove a little bit close and started shooting, Meri's heart stopped as she heard the sound of gunfire. She was terrified, and she could tell that Theo was too. "We have to do something!" she cried, her voice full of panic. "I know!" Theo said, his voice calm but determined. "I'm going to try to lose them." He stepped on the gas, and the truck lurched forward. The agents followed, their cars gaining on them. Meri looked out the window, and her stomach turned. They were driving straight towards a cliff. Theo sets his sniper from the back of the truck and aims a straight shot on the from wheel of the first SUV and it explodes and tumbled immediately The second SUV tried to take a U-turn but that was a big mistake, as Theo had calculated it all. Theo blasted the last SUV and they tumbled down the cliff. Meri let out a sigh of relief. "We did it" she exclaimed, a smile speeding across her face. As the second SUV tumbled down the cliff, he tried to take out the remaining four but this time, he was out of bullets and as the next car approaches them he quickly uncovered the eggs that they stole from the warehouse and started throwing them on the car screen and it started getting really blurry As the car swerves, the driver tried to clear the windshield with his wipers, but it was no use. The eggs had coated the windshield, and he couldn't see a thing he tried stopping the car but the speed was already too much and the car head brake failure and immediately it hits a pole. The impact of the crash was immense. The front of the car crumpled like an accordion, and the airbags deployed with a loud bang. The driver was knocked unconscious, and the car came to a rest against the pole. A few minutes later, another car pulled up. It was an unmarked police car, and two officers got out. They cautiously approached the crashed car, not knowing what to expect. One of the officers radioed for an ambulance, while the other cautiously approached the driver's side window. The officer tapped on the window, and to his relief, the driver stirred. The driver slowly opened his eyes, and the officer asked if he was okay. The driver groaned and said he thought he was okay, but his head was throbbing. The officer asked the driver if he knew what had happened, and the driver slowly nodded his head. "I… I think I fell asleep at the wheel," he said, his voice weak. The officer nodded and asked the driver to stay put while he waited for the ambulance to arrive. Both the SUVs and the truck were now been chased my the police for overspending on the highway "guys I think we have another problem, the police are after us" Meri alerts them immediately and Tom speeds up immediately and all this while, Mrs. Williams has been experiencing a heart pounding like she have never experienced " guys I think you're almost there at the primal council meeting!" Meri alerts them "let move to plan B immediately."

Outside the primal council, there was a huge police patrolling around the soundings as they saw a truck approaching with a very high speed and they all tried to stop it by shooting the tires but the truck continues driver with the wheels and the truck hits a police car and they both crashes and the police carefully came closer, "it's bomb!!!" One the police shouted as he turns around and jumps up and immediately the whole vicinity was on fire "Tom move In immediately" Meri concludes as there was commotion in the vicinity, it didn't disturb the peace of the primal meetings and Tom made his way in to the device control room were he could tamper with the projector and he immediately inputs the flash drive on the laptop that projects and secrets of the crime syndicates played down As the movie started immediately the whole executives were shocked and aghast as they could not believe what they were watching "remove that at once!" One Mr. yang a Chinese American Minister stood up immediately and ordered in anger "allow the video" Mr. President ordered and immediately the video was done playing, the remaining ASA agents arrived inside the Hall "Arrest them!!" Mr. President ordered immediately and all the security officer in the hall draws out their gun on them and they were massively out numbered "Yes!!" Meri shouted in joy from where she was and all of then had a smile on their face on what great task they just accomplished bringing a whole terrorist organization to justice.
