Spy Mage System

181 The Search

“Wrong answer,” I said, as I shot near his body-trying to drill fear into his heart, but also make sure he wasn’t going to tell anyone what had happened here. But then I noticed that I’d been shot myself, right in my left shoulder. It was only a flesh wound though, so I ignored it and kept on pressing him for information.

“Where is Masaru Kin?!!” I screamed, as I kept pointing the gun right at him. He stammered again as he tried to answer me. But then suddenly there was a crash upstairs as someone strong enough to knock it right off its hinges kicked the door in.

Then two agents walked through it, each with their guns drawn and aimed at me as they walked slowly towards me, with a look of anger and rage on their face.

“Drop your weapon!” one of them commanded me.

I was stuck, but I wasn’t sure what to do. I grabbed the guy off the floor and put the gun to his head and shouted, “Tell me where Masaru Kin is!”

“I don’t know who that is!” he yelled back as he struggled to get free from my grip, but he was unable to do so because I was squeezing him with all my might. “I’m telling you, I don’t know who that is!”

“Yes, you do. You kidnapped him back in Japan! He’s here. Tell me now!” I shouted. “Or this man’s brains will be all over the floor.”

“Okay, okay,” the agent said. “I’ll tell you where Masaru Kin is. When you leave this room, move two lefts and two rights, okay?”

“Alright thank you,” I said, letting the captive go. Then he fell on the ground and tried to crawl out of sight as quickly as possible.

.....

“Alright, let’s go!” I said, as I turned around and walked towards the door, where the agents had kicked it off of its hinges. As I walked out of that room and down the hallway.

I kept moving towards the stairway that would lead me to Masaru’s location. Two lefts and two rights, I think he said, so I turned left, and then left again at the first hallway before turning right into a long hallway with no doors on either side of it except for one at the far end of it.

When I got there, there was a small metal door.

There was only one thing I needed to do, but hopefully it doesn’t make too much noise. I took a deep breath and charged up my Perk, which caused my adrenaline to rush through my body like crazy. Then I shot my hands out to push against the metal door as hard as I could-and it began to bend under my force before breaking in half as it swung open inwards.

Perfect.

Immediately I rushed through, seeing a long hall of blue that was almost just mesmerizing. It was sort of scary, and all dizzy looking sort of. I walked down the hall, looking around to see this-weird place. “Masaru!” I shouted, hoping he could hear me from here, but all I heard was a groan from behind me.

“Masaru!” I shouted again, as I continued to walk down the hallway until I finally saw him.

It was hard to tell from where I was standing whether he was actually conscious or not. He looked very pale and sickly-like they had not fed him anything in days or something like that. His black hair was super messy and damp, and his skin looked pale as well-maybe from being locked up in that warehouse for too long without any sunlight. He was chained up to a metal chair that had some sort of straps and clamps attached to it, so he wouldn’t be able to escape easily.

“Connor...” he muttered, and I smiled. “Hey, it’s me,” I said, walking over to him, before grabbing his face with my left hand and bringing his face close to mine as I looked him straight in the eye.

“Hey,” I said softly as I took my left hand away and brought it up to his neck, trying to feel for a pulse or something like that. “I’m gonna get you out of here.”

Masaru nodded, and I looked at the chains. I grabbed a hold of it and charged my Perk up, then grabbed one of the chains with all my might and yanked it towards me.

Then it began to bend before snapping right in half as I pulled it towards me. The other chains came undone as well as Masaru’s hands were freed. “Okay, you’re free now-” I said, before Masaru came in with a hug. His hands felt cold and dead, like they were barely even there anymore.

“Thank you,” he whispered as we held on to one another tightly for a moment before separating ourselves. He looked so pale and sickly, and his eyes looked so sad. “Do you have an idea where Tisiah and Nikki could be?” I asked Masaru, and he nodded. “I think I do,” Masaru said, taking a deep breath, before walking towards the other end of the hallway where there were stairs leading downwards. He grabbed me by my shoulders as he pulled me along with him, and we went down into a dark room below.

“They’re down here,” Masaru said, and I gasped in relief when I saw Tisiah and Nikki in the same disgusting chair Masaru was in.

But the sight of the dark room was terrifying. Chain-infected chairs that are in rows and rows, and the smell or rotting flesh that stung my throat, but at least Tisiah and Nikki didn’t look that bad. “Connor!” Tisiah shouted, shaking the chains on his chair, which was why Masaru had told me to get them out of there.

I walked up to them and began to help them both get out of their chairs. Tisiah’s eyes were wide with fear, and Nikki looked more exhausted than anything else. “This place smells worse than that warehouse,” Nikki said in between heavy breaths.

“Yeah, yeah it does,” I said as I helped Nikki stand up, before grabbing her hand and pulling her along. “Don’t worry,” I said, as I looked down at Tisiah in her chair, “we’ll get out of here. The YMPA is already outside of the warehouse. We just need to find a way to get out of here sneakily-”

“Hands in the air!” someone shouted.

I turned around, seeing three BMO agents with their guns pointed at us, ready to shoot at any second, and I couldn’t say anything in return because there were too many of them. Then I heard the click-clacks, the loud ones that made their presence known. “So you escaped,” Maddie Cone said, revealing herself as she walked down the stairs. “Surprising.”

“What do you mean by that?” I hissed.

“Self-explanatory, to be honest,” Maddie Cone said with a chuckle, before walking closer to us. “But now that you’re all here together, it makes things so much easier.”

“You think you’re just gonna capture us that easily?” Nikki said, but Maddie Cone nodded, making Nikki take a step back with a gasp.

“That’s right,” Maddie said with a smile. “It would’ve been so much easier to capture all of you if you had only come alone.” She then looked at me and narrowed her eyes. “Oh, well, take them into custody. But follow me.”

“Yes, ma’am,” the agents responded, as they began to pull us along by our arms while pushing us through the darkroom to get outside. There were many chains around this room that were attached to all sorts of things, and I could hear the sounds of chains breaking and things being moved around before the chain was freed and it fell down onto the ground.

We walked up the stairs, and through the hall, where we returned to the lobby of the warehouse where there was a small crowd of people waiting for us-all of them were BMO agents. But outside of the warehouse was like a whole army of YMPA agents.
