Gromel woke up with a huge headache. And he notices he can't move his arms and legs. Shaking his head he tried to open his eyes despite the terrible headache and a bright light welcomes him he tried to move, but he can't he continue to look around and a few seconds later his eyes adjusted to the bright lights that have been focus on him like a spotlight.
He notices that he was tied to a steel chair. Both his arms and legs are tightly secured to a chair.
Adjusting his eyes he notices there another person in front of him also tied to a chair. And he notices that he knows the person.
But as soon as he saw the person sweat began to pour in his body despite the place is fully air-conditioned...
"Shit… shit.." Gromel began to panic but no matter how much he tried he can't free his arms and legs...
"Kijo... Shit... Kijo... Gromel began to call the man seated in front of him. And even though he knows it futile he didn't know what else to do. Because Kijo the man in front of him is already dead. And looking closer Gromel can see the condition of Kijo. Both eyes missing all fingers broken burns all over the body... One look and he knows what happens...
And as he was panicking he didn't notice that there another person in the room. And it is seating right beside him a few meters away.
The other person didn't say anything he just continues to observe Gromel...
And after a few minutes... He finally spoke...
"What do you think about my work?"
Gromel was so surprised he almost jumps up... But because he was bound to a chair all he can do is scream...
"This one is so stubborn he keeps lying until the end and look at what has got him, I hope you don't follow his footsteps... He kept saying he doesn't know anything.. How's that possible? Right?" The man said in a calm and friendly tone like talking to a friend.
Gromel who was about to say he doesn't know anything. Immediately shut his mouth.
"Gromel right im Jack... Well, let us be friends and just be civil what do you say to that?"
Gromel nodded vigorously...
"Good... Well, that makes it simple. What I want is actually very simple. I actually don't want to hurt anyone but I hate it when someone lies to my face... Thinking they are so smart and I'm so stupid to believe them don't you hate that kind of person?"
Gromel who was already shaking from fear and despite the friendly and casual tone knows there's a monster next to him. And Kijo is the proof of that...
So the only thing Gromel can do is Nod.
"Good... Looks like we understand each other.. Haha, and I was afraid you are like this guy.." Jack pointed at Kijo.
"Alright then lets start, lets not make this a long session as there's a tv series I'm looking forward to seeing and I don't want to miss the episode..." Jack then stand up kick Kijo who flew across the room still tied to a chair then he picks his chair and put it in front of Gromel, now them shall we start?" Said Jack as he sat in front of Gromel with a friendly smile on his face...
Jack was an interrogation specialist system clone.. he flew straight to Liberty to meet Gromel and Kijo...

Dianna was in her office talking to Tifa... When Aya and Brutus come to her office.
As soon as Dianna saw Brutus and Aya she asks how it is going...
"The two don't know anything... Jack confirms it..."
"Well if Jack says do then it must be so." Said, Dianna.
Aya and Brutus nodded everyone knows what Jack is capable of Any shadow unit can torture anyone for information but no one does it better than Jack. And even the toughest Beast Lord all broke down in front of Jack's method.
"But we also don't come empty-handed, Jack manage to dig this up. Brutus presents a mobile phone. This phone belongs to Gromel and here a phone number of the one who ordered the attack. Ash was already looking at it with the help of Gaia we might be able to find something no matter how small it is, it still better than nothing." Said Aya.
"Another thing there's a rumor circulating in outer liberty about a group of extremists called Purple Heart. Apparently, this group is responsible for many killing and robbery in outer Liberty."
Dianna looks at Aya in confusion. "And this connects to us how?"
Because according to rumors members of the Purple Heart like to dress in all grey with a Purple Heart logo on their chest.
"Greyman…"
"Its a possibility only the Greyman we know don't have a purple heart emblem in their outfit."
"I see.. Still its worth looking into.. As they might be the one behind the attack on us." Said, Dianna.
Brutus and Aya nodded. "We're going to need more Shadow unit here. Five teams are not enough" said Aya.
"I'm way ahead of you I've already made a request to Commander Oda. Ten teams are scheduled to arrive here in the next few weeks." Said, Dianna.
"We'll take our leave then." Said Aya.
Dianna nodded.

"Report!"
"The attack on GT warehouse on outer Liberty failed both contractors were captured."
"The attack on their transport also failed no survivor on the pirates we hired."
I see it was as expected... GT needs to be eliminated if we want our lord to successfully take over this galaxy.
A group of men in Grey clothes sat on a circular table and each of every one of them has different symbols on their chest.
"What about Earth?" Said the man with the skull symbol on his chest..
"Difficult the hold of GT on Earth is strong and unshakable atleast for now..."
"Forget Earth focus on Liberty they have total control on Earth but on Liberty its another matter. Allow me to take action..."
"Vulture… we know about your grudge but don't take your personal feelings into our business..." Said the man with the Golden hand on his chest.
"Che.. It's not about my personal feelings what I say is have merit and also I'm not stupid to take GT head-on. We all know the result of that. But my grudge keeps me focus and I'm willing to do what must be done.. Unlike the rest of you!"
"Its true Grand Trading (GT) have limited power on Liberty but also the same for everyone. But I admit we have a better chance of going against GT on liberty than on Earth."
"Lets vote… those in favor of Vulture to make a move on GT on liberty raise your hand" more than half raise their hands..
"Then it decided.. Go do what must be done. As long as it doesn't jeopardize the plan of our Lord. Remember Vulture you're no longer part of Humanity you belong to our Lord now never forget it." Said the man with golden hands on his chest.
Vulture trembles when he saw the eyes of Golden Hands..
"I know... For our Lord."
"FOR OUR LORD!!!"
