Under the growing threat from Bugu town, I realise that we need a unified front to protect not just one shelter, but potentially the entire community. My first call is to Yong's shelter, where Yong and his trusted second-in-command, Han, have been instrumental in previous operations. Their experience and leadership will be crucial in the coming battle.
"Yong, it's urgent," I begin as soon as the line connects, my voice filled with a sense of urgency. "We've received a credible threat from Bugu town. They're planning a coordinated attack on the City Hall shelter. We need to bolster our defences there immediately. Can I count on you and your team?"
Without a moment's hesitation, Yong replies, his voice steady and reassuring, "Of course, my friend. You don't even have to ask. Han and I will gather our best fighters. How many do you need?"
"Whatever you can spare," I answer gratefully, relief washing over me. "Every capable hand will help in this fight."
