Chapter 317 317. What Went Wrong
Kizy and her team were shifting towards a corner, taking shelter while he could spot two men with bleeding injuries.
"What exactly happened?" Markus asked, his voice dropping by an octave, knowing that Kizy would never let his men get injured for this way, that too after being on land for hardly a minute.
"Ladyboss started vomiting as soon as she stepped on the land, and all others were distracted due to that. Four men were shot simultaneously including Joel sir." The man informed exactly what he had seen.
'Joel is injured as well!' Was the first thought that came to his mind, afterall Joel had been his partner through all his life and death situations, so how could he not care about him.
'Plus little lamb is not in her healthy state. This can not get any more worse.' Markus thought as his brain started planning for their strategy.
He was still thinking when he saw snipers from the Imperial nation getting killed one by one in one shot.
'Jesus! I have never prayed nor asked anything from you. But today I beg you to keep my little lamb safe. Let me be her shield and take every blow which is directed at her. Please keep her safe!' And for the first time, the cruel, ruthless, slaughter machine named Satan had to beg for something.
Someone had truly said - love changes a person. No matter how reputed or cold or unbreakable you are, once you have someone you love, you no longer remain the same. The ice cold nature starts melting while ruthlessness is replaced by kindness.
And this was no different for Markus as well. No matter how careless he used to be about his own situation but once Kizy entered his life, he slowly started caring for her, unknowingly.
"Team charlie." Markus called out.
"Yes boss!" The captain instantly stood ramrod straight in front of Markus, ready for any order.
"Ask your team to annihilate anyone who simply aims at any member from Kizy's team. No matter how far away or hidden he is, kill them at any costs." Markus ordered.
"Yes boss." The captain replied and immediately left to follow his order.
"Don't worry, the second sister will be alright. Though she is a little lacking in planning, she will never put your men at risk." Victor came ahead to explain.
"I am not worried about that Victor. I know she will take care of them till the end. I am worried that she will put herself in danger to save others." Markus explained.
"Don't worry, she has a baby to take care of. And I am pretty sure she won't do anything rash because of that." Andrew interjected.
"Let's join her ASAP!" Nicole said from behind.
"Hmmm." Markus said.
"We are descending." Markus announced before getting ready with the rest of the teams, getting ready to be Kizy's shield when the time called for.
And within a minute, his entire troop had landed, only to be stupefied once again.
"Boss, lady boss and others have left already." One of the men from Markus's team informed him.
On the other hand, the man left behind from Kizy's team instantly pressed his bluetooth earpiece.
"Lady boss, Boss and his team have landed." The man informed, going directly to the point without dilly dallying.
"Okay. He will definitely ask you something. Inform him that all his members are safe so don't worry." Kizy informed while signalling the other members to increase their speed even more.
"Yes lady boss." The man replied and ended the conversation after watching Markus head towards him.
"Why are you here?" Markus asked, knowing something was not quite right. Afterall Kizy will not leave a man from her team behind unnecessarily.
"Boss, we are leaving to join ladyboss." Suddenly another group joined Markus's group from behind.
And it was none other than the one which was told to remain behind by Kizy.
Markus looked at them once before turning ahead. The men without delaying anymore left to join Kizy once again.
"Why did you not accompany her?" Markus asked once again.
"Boss, lady boss told me that I have been shot in one of the major arteries. If I remove the bullet, I will lose a lot of blood and risk my life. So I have been asked to wait here for you and your team and get proper treatment. Other members are safe. Lady boss is a great leader." The man explained.
"Get him treated." Markus said as two men came ahead to accompany the man.
"Thank you boss." The man said and bowed a little before limping away with those two men.
"We need to move fast." Markus said in a flat tone.
*KIZY's GROUP*
After knowing that Markus and his group was already on the land, Kizy and Joel along with their team sped up, reaching the vicinity of the professor's headquarters.
"Young madam." Suddenly Joel called out after reaching a safer corner.
"Yes." Kizy replied, her mind already a little disturbed.
"Don't you think that they are too quiet right now? After the killing of those snipers, there is no movement from the other side. I think there is something wrong, just that I can not pinpoint what exactly went wrong." Joel said in an almost inaudible voice, though Kizy was able to clearly hear it.
All of them had been crossing the area at their fastest speeds while looking all around but the calmness in front of them was too unrealistic to happen. No response when their guards were high was definitely not what they were expecting, not from the professor at least.
"I was thinking the same. Let's-" Kizy was still speaking when suddenly they heard rustling sound.
"Retreat now. It's a trap!" Kizy yelled, pointing her gun in direction of the sound and shooting ahead, knowing exactly what they missed out on.
