The Decision He Had to Make
126Please respect copyright.PENANAQm524lPkSB
After an hour of bloody gunfight, Lieutenant Benjamin Allen finally woke up from his unconscious state. As he opened his eyes, he saw armed men standing around him. He knew he was in for a beating and torture, as the enemy would try to extract information from him. But Benjamin was not afraid of torture; he had been trained for years to withstand it. His instructors had told him that enemies would stop at nothing to get what they wanted, and that he had to be prepared to face the worst.

Benjamin looked around, expecting to be beaten and tortured, but instead, he saw the men waiting for someone. Then, he saw a figure walking towards him - this had to be their leader, the one who had sacrificed so many of his men to get to them.

"Demarion Walker," Benjamin said to himself.

Demarion Walker approached Benjamin and said, "I have to give you credit, Lieutenant. You killed many of my men, and I respect that. But I'm not here to chat; I need to know where the princess is."
126Please respect copyright.PENANAgARn5pY5LB
Benjamin looked up at Demarion and said, "Why should I tell you?"
126Please respect copyright.PENANA3NuHFPxSua
Demarion smiled and said, "Because, Lieutenant, you have a lot to lose in this situation. I can see it in your eyes; you're ready to retire and go back to your family. Take this opportunity to save yourself. If I were in your shoes, I would take it. Why sacrifice your life for a spoiled rich girl who has everything?"
126Please respect copyright.PENANAXWUZINBXhy
Benjamin looked at Demarion with anger in his eyes and said, "You want to talk about opportunity? You took an opportunity to betray the Republic military and your country for your own personal goals. Because of you, the drug trade is getting worse, and you're responsible for the attack on the police stations that killed many good cops, most of whom had families."
126Please respect copyright.PENANAImdNndl6OT
Demarion shrugged and said, "Yes, I did it to show that your government is not safe for me, and I want to put fear into your country. I can attack anytime with my own army. Now, let's make a deal. Tell me where the princess is, and I'll make sure you live to see your grandchildren again."
126Please respect copyright.PENANAatdfbXLbDp
Demarion pulled out a picture from Benjamin's pocket, showing his seven grandchildren. Benjamin's eyes widened, and he felt a pang of fear. He wanted to see his grandchildren again, and Demarion was offering him a way out.

Benjamin looked up at Demarion and said, "Okay, last moment, I saw the princess with another team. They went somewhere south. If you don't believe me, look at the footprints on the ground. That's all I can tell you."
126Please respect copyright.PENANA32TONj9aRP
Demarion smiled and said, "Thank you, Lieutenant. That's all I needed to know. But don't think that this means the other two can go free. The deal was between you and me, not them."

Demarion pulled out his pistol and shot the last two hostages, killing them both. Then, he pointed the gun at Benjamin and shot him in the side. Benjamin fell to the ground, and Demarion kicked him to make sure he was not moving.

Demarion stood up and said, "It's time to go hunting for the princess. I need her alive, no matter the cost. She's my future plan, and nothing else matters. Battalion squad, company, go to the south district, avenue, and search every house, building, and street. I want the princess now. Dismissed."
126Please respect copyright.PENANAZwzhkRlJMO
The battalion troops responded with a "yes, sir," and Demarion turned to Zalen Daronte, one of his men, and said, "Let's go back to the command center. We have a princess to hunt down."
126Please respect copyright.PENANAyESmDhDayG
Zalen asked, "Why did you shoot Benjamin Allen? You always make deals with him. Why kill him now?"
126Please respect copyright.PENANAfIZNGerY3h
Demarion smiled and said, "He's not dead, Zalen. I just shot him in the body armor. He might feel a lot of pain, but he's not dead. I don't want to look suspicious in front of him, and I want to keep him alive for now. He sold out his own team, and now it's time to hunt down the princess."
