Chereads / Hitman's Creed / Chapter 2 - Ghosted.

Chapter 2 - Ghosted.

With their house in flames, they are on the run. Chan's family needed to hide their identities to escape the grasp of the Banpai.

By the time members of the Banpai got to their house, they found out that the house was already in flames. They carefully checked if the family was still alive.

They proceeded cautiously with every man moving in a different direction from the other. A man entered what used to be the living room of the house and was shocked to see three bodies burnt to a crisp.

Seeing those bodies made the men discouraged for they wanted to fight the legendary hitman who was Chan.

Another man entered the then burnt kitchen without knowing what transpieed within the living room.

The man saw that the oven in the kitchen was unscathed. He was surprised by the sight then he raised his arm right above his head and said. "Mission command, it seems that the family has escaped. "

Li who had just got a message from the other men saying that the family was burnt was utterly annoyed and thought his soldiers were toying with him.

"You think this is a game! You think I am a fool! I don't think so. I will kill whoever gave me the wrong information! "

The soldier who was in the kitchen said. "Sir, I will send you a live feed of where I am now. I will show you proof. "

Li who was eager to see what this soldier had seen said. "Ok then, show me what you have seen. It better be worth my time. "

The soldier with a scared voice which glitched over the intercom said. "Sir. We can see that the house is on fire but this oven is unscathed. "

Li said with an aggressive tone. "What is that supposedto mean. They worked for us, of course they have high tech equipment that can survive fires. "

The Banpai's chief scientist who was within earshot commented. "Yes, we have made alot of heat resistant items, shoes, clothes, ovens, even toothbrushes. Those did not go well."

Someone in the background started screaming. "My mouth, ow, my mouth! You guys said it was a heat resistant toothbrush, not a heated toothbrush! Ow it burns! "

The chief scientist adjusting her glasses. "Oh just ignore him, he's getting paranoid. It only burnt the left side of his face, not too much not too less. "

The soldier with a stammer said.

"Bu-but sir, the oven might also be a high tech oven that would lead somewhere. "

"Why would we make such a thing? We aren't that stupid to help our soldiers. " Li said from mission command.

As soon as those words came out of his mouth the chief scientist interrupted Li and said. "But sir we did make an oven like that. "

Li, his pride wounded, said. "Well whichever idiot had that idea, should be fired immediatel-"

"It was your idea, sir" She interrupted again.

Li with a broken ego, looked at the commanders in the office and said. "What are you fools looking at? Would you like me to fire you instead? "

Everyone in the room then shouted. "No sir! "

Li spoke to the soldier who was still in the kitchen. "Check if there are any signs of escape or if the oven has been tampered with, but if there is nothing there you will pay the price. "

The soldier then proceeded to check for signs of tampering, but was unable to as Chan had covered all his tracks.

The soldier quietly said with a scared voice. "Sorry sir, there is nothing of the sort here. I was wrong. "

Li smiled. "Oh well, I guess your going to die today, or else you want to challenge me in a fight. Remember, anyone who beats a chief or commander can take his place. "

The soldier who knew he stood no chance against Li said. "Sir I wouldn't dare to fight you, I rather die than to fight family. "

Li spoke full of pride. "Yes my child, those are the words of a true soldier. Come to the organization, we will give you an honourable death ceremony. "

"Ok sir. " The soldier said tearfully while looking at a photo of his family for the last time.

Meanwhile in the jet Chan and his wife were having a conversation, his wife being worried about their impending doom.

"What are we going to do honey? They'll find us eventually. "

Chan boasted pridefully. "Don't worry babe. I removed all the traces of us and added a few fake bodies for extra measure. We have officially ghosted them. "
