Dangerous quest

DANGEROUS MISSION

EPISODE 1

As they gathered in the great room, Alpha noticed the uneasiness in all the men...

Except of course,

Max, who looked like he could not be predicted....

More reason he'd shown interest in him the first time they met.

With an air of superiority, Alpha stood and strolled into the room when all men were complete.

"Greetings to you Alpha"

The men greeted in unison ...

Alpha waved and sat on his magnificent chair,

After which the men also sat...

"As you all know, I'm a man of time... So straight to the point!" He said in a matter of fact tone

"One of you would be going in a dangerous mission soon"

Some of the men started murmuring

Alpha calling a mission "dangerous" shows it could be a suicidal attempt.

One of his escorts handed him a picture which he passed to the men.

Every man gawped as the picture came into view...

Going out to kill an ex Assassin and one of the richest man in the city looks like an impossible task.

"Who is willing to go?" Alpha asked after taking in the men's expressions

After what seemed like seconds, someone spoke

"I will!"

Everyone turned to look at Max like he'd suddenly lost his sanity....

"Alright, see me in my chamber" Alpha stated and dispersed the men.

★★★

Pedro paced to and fro the room ..

The thought of how Max had suddenly thrown him off his stride made him angrier every minute.

He had been the boss' favorite before Max joined the

'X men council'

Ever since Alpha brought him to the council, he'd always considered him as a threat

Now he'd taken up what seems like an impossible task and made him look less a man.

He took a long drag from his cigarette

"I know what to do" he said inaudibly

★ ★ ★

Max looked at the mighty mountain above him.

He'd been training himself brutally ever since he'd chosen to go for the Mission.

"I can do this" he whispered to himself and started off with the speed of a lightening

"One, two , three" he groaned as he climbed up the mountain...

He heard a slippery movement and strained his ears...

He looked up and was just in time to see a giant king snake in a cave...

The animal leapt forward on seeing him...

With little or no time to think, Max brought out the pocket knife he'd with him the whole time

It was one thing to kill the snake and another thing to keep himself from falling..

Max threw the knife, aiming at it's eyes

He grinned satisfactorily as the snake slided down the mountain with a mighty force.

Calling on every ounce of strength in him, he redoubled his efforts and climbed higher...

"Just a little more"

He encouraged himself as he was almost at the top.

Soon he could see the rays of sunshine as he pushed himself up the last time, a wave of relief washed over him.

Yeah, he'd done it!

★ ★ ★

Alpha nodded in satisfaction as the boys got the weapons ready for the operation

In less than no time, Max would be there and he'd to be prepared for the Mission

He pulled out the specially made bullet proof outfit he'd purchased for him.

"This would do him a lot of good" he thought to himself..

Soon a bare chested Max walked into the room.

"Greetings to you Alpha" he greeted with a little bow.

Alpha waved at him to come over to his side.

"Are you ready?" He asked as he tried waving the little doubt that clouded his mind.

"Yes boss!" Max answered, his voice deep and rich.

For a moment, Alpha was lost staring at the beautiful figure standing in front of him.

His muscles were well arranged and his extremely tight belly showed he'd been working out endlessly.

His eyes raked over his narrow hips and down to his big manhood.

He would do anything to have this gorgeous man in his bed...

On seeing this,

Max cleared his throat noisily which snapped Alpha out of his thoughts..

"You can go" Alpha stated stiffly.

Max gave him a quick stare, turned around and left his office.

To be continued..

DANGEROUS MISSION

Episode 2

Max scanned the room cannily and noticed some sort of dispute among the men. They stopped talking immediately they sighted him which made him more suspicious...

They'd been talking about him....

He would find out soon

"Are you done?"

Alpha's voice snapped him from his thoughts...

"Yes boss" he answered curtly

"Do not forget the rules and if you get into trouble.... Do not hesitate to press the button"

"Yes boss" Max replied with a quick nod

Somehow, he felt twitchy about the bullet proof outfit and mask.

Although Alpha had assured him about it, still, he felt he was being deceived.

Something is wrong somewhere!

* * *

Max jumped out of the moving van and headed towards the woods which led to his Target's compound. He wouldn't be going through the main gate to avoid suspicions from the cops and security agents.

He would be passing through a tunnel instead. According to the layout, the building has a tunnel which leads directly to the master's bedroom...

Alpha had made necessary arrangements to make sure getting out of the tunnel in the master's bedroom wouldn't be a problem.

As he got closer to the tunnel, he heard some men chattering

He zeroed in on them

They were just four

Max brought out his silent pistol and fired tactically, bringing two of them down.

The two men quickly took cover and fired shots at him, missing him completely. He'd been caught already.

As he peeped from hideout, he could see one of the men trying to make a call.

Max sprung out from where he had been hiding and fired a shot, bringing him down abruptly. The last guy aimed and fired a shot at him. Max felt the cold bullet hit him and cut through some arteries.

What the hell? Hadn't his boss said this outfit was bullet proofed? Without thinking twice, he fired at the last man and brought him down.

With all men down, he marched towards the tunnel and examined it closely. He was obviously angry at Alpha for making him look stupid. He pulled off the fake outfit and mask. He wouldn't be needing them anymore. Not after he was tricked.

With the aid of the knife, he tore one of the men's clothing and used it as a _______ where the bullet had hit him. He observed the environment and noticed some queer things. He brought out his mini phone and took pictures of it. He would be using as evidences in case his real boss would be going on a double.

Lastly be brought out a can from his backpack which contained camouflage paint and used it on his face.

With a gun in each hand, he proceeded into the tunnel slowly.

* * *

"Dad!" Mia squealed as she scurried into his arms. The big broad chested man, her father quickly carried her and hugged her tightly.

"My princess" he cooed as he stroked her hair. He set her down and looked into her eyes. "You look more beautiful everyday" he complimented while she blushed. "I missed you dad!" She whined like a ten year old

"I missed you too pumpkin" he stated and pecked her gently on the forehead.

"And I'm sorry I couldn't wait up until you arrived last night.. I promised myself I would wait for you but I didn't know when I slept off" she said solemnly like she had committed a great atrocity because nature didn't permit her to wait up for her father.

"It's okay princess, you don't have to worry about a thing"

"Really?" She beamed

"Yeah" he assured and earned another hug from her. "Good morning Dad!" A voice broke in. They both turned to see Jaden, Zach's son and Mia's elder brother. "Morning son!, How are you?" Zach asked and hugged himself. "I'm fine dad" he answered curtly

"Dad!!!" Mia squealed as she brought out a diamond necklace with 'MIA' boldly inscribed on it. "Thank you so much!" She whined

"Can you stop acting like a baby please?" Jaden teased

"Mia is always my baby no matter how old she is" Zach defended while brought out her tongue

"Is this where you all have been hiding?"

They all turned to see Charlotte, Zach's lovely wife and Jaden and Mia's mother

"And here comes the boss!" Zach stated and pulled her into a tight embrace, then kissed her on the full lips

"You all should go dress up. Breakfast is ready!" Charlotte announced

"Alright mum" Mia stated while Jaden only a small nod of acknowledgement

* * *

With a pistol in each hand, Max walked cautiously towards the opening of the tunnel. He checked his wristwatch like he was awaiting a sign before advancing. 'tick!'

Gingerly, he lifted the strapdoor and peeped into what looked like a luxurious room. Gently he dropped the strap door, trying as much as possible to make less noise.

As soon as he was in, he did a double sign check and awaited what looks like a signal.

DANGEROUS QUEST

Episode 3

The family all ate in silence, each savoring the meal made by Charlotte and the maids. Mia felt the need to talk but couldn't as she wouldn't want to disobey one of her father's favorite rule.

"Hold your peace while eating"

She cleared her throat noisily and earned a glare from Jaden.

"What?" She mouthed and picked her meal

Suddenly Charlotte felt her throat go tight and drank more water.

"Ahhhhh!" She groaned when her throat started burning. "Honey?" Zach called in amazement. "Mum?" Jaden and Mia called at once... Soon Zach also felt his throat burning and quicky inspected the drink. "The drink has been poisoned"

"What?" They all gasped.

"Get the doctor!" He groaned as he felt the world going upside down.

"Get the telephone Mia!!" Jaden yelled as he tried to keep his mother from falling. Mia could feel the world spinning so fast that she couldn't comprehend what was happening. One minute, they had been dinning peacefully and the next, their parents were in danger. She jerked herself into motion.

"I don't think there's need for that!" A cold voice Interrupted. They all turned to see a handsome young with a pistol in each hand. "Who the hell are you?!" Jaden queried angrily

"Your nightmare!" He snarled. "On your knees!" He snapped. He was already getting irritated by the boy's guts. "Don't try anything funny or you get this into your god-damned skull" he warned.

"Do you understand?" He asked in a dangerous voice. He could see fear boldly written on their faces as they nodded like puppets. That was what he wanted. "Power.... To be in control!"

"To be in control". Alpha had ordered him to wipe out the whole family but he was sure but he was as hell that he wouldn't be following his orders.

"Hey you stand!" He motioned to Mia... She stood up hurriedly. She was obviously shaking

"Take this" he snapped and handed her a duct tape. "Now use it on your brother" he grinned.

As she proceeded to do the job, Max glanced at his wristwatch and knew his window of opportunity was growing short. He knew Alpha might not trust him fully and might not trust him fully. The averagely built bearded man must not be underestimated. When she was done. He ordered her to do the same to herself while he cuffed their hands.

"You've got less than an hour to get that poison out of your parents' system" he stated coldly to Jaden and motioned to Mia to move.

As they hurried down the stairs, Mia felt the urge to scream. All their maids and guards were lying lifelessly and she was being abducted against her own will. In the same breath, she knew disobedience could bring her life to an abrupt end.

"Get into the damned car now!" He snapped with rage. She found herself entering the car like she was being controlled with a remote.

Suddenly Max covered her nose with something she couldn't fathom. As she made her way into darkness, she had only one question.... "WHY?"

***

"Mission successful!" Mia stated to his boss and disabled the tracker he had with him the whole time. He knew Alpha would be furious when he finds out he had been tricked by another gang Lord. But he cared less. What mattered most was that he had accomplished what looked like an impossible task. His boss, the master planner had planned it perfectly and he'd helped him achieve it.

As he drove speedily into the mansion, all the men gathered to welcome him except of course, the boss himself. Soon they all moved into the dark room where he found the boss waiting for him.

"Greetings supreme" Max greeted curtly

"Welcome home son!" Supreme beamed showing his stained teeth proudly. "Well done!" Supreme commended while Max bowed a little.

"There's more to discuss" he stated and looked at the men. "I'm sure you all know this is just the beginning, so I want you to prepare for the task that awaits us"

"Yes supreme" they all chorused.

He stood up gracefully and each man knew what it meant.

Time to disperse!

* * *

"Boss" I think the tracker has been deactivated " Ray stated trying as much as possible to choose his words. "What?" Alpha yelled.

"That motherfucking godforsaken swine had the guts to betray me!!!!"

Whoever that was behind this got him real good. And this time around he would never let this slide.

"Get out!" He bellowed when he noticed Ray was still there watching him closely. "Okay boss" Ray stated calmly and moved towards the exit. When Ray was finally out, Alpha moved towards the balcony. He needed time to think alone

* * *

Mia woke to the sound of strange voices. As she opened her eyes, she wondered where she was and why she was there. She looked around and found out she was spread-eagled on the bed and both hands and legs were cuffed to the bed post.

"This wasn't her room" she thought

"What's going on?" She asked no one in particular and everything came rushing back at her.

Her parents had been poisoned and they were helpless

"Oh dad!" She sobbed pathetically when she remembered how a hero like him had fallen so easily.

"Mum!" She cried when she remembered how vunerable she looked when she was being taken away by her captor.

They had planned it so well that there wasn't a mistake!

One thing she knew was that she needed to be brave. She would definitely show her captors the other side of Mia

At least she hoped so.
