Chapter 3B: An intruder

"Yes, boss." All the guards said in unison as they thumped their feet loudly on the floor. Then they all rushed outside at once.

"How can someone enter our territory?" Jane asked, and the other two boys were standing beside her, had the same question in their minds.

"Someone who's not common." Amy said, and they got suspicious.

"You mean a spy?" Theo said a little loudly as he made a guess; the other two had come to the same conclusion.

"Most likely." Amy said and looked outside.

She didn't have a good feeling about this. But they could not bear any risks at that point cause they still had a lot to do. So, that person needed to be killed as soon as discovered.

"Where's Aaron?" She asked out of the blue.

"He's almost here." Levi said as he looked at the location of his tracker.

"Tell him to prepare the interrogation room." She said as she took out her gun and loaded it.

"Mam..." Jane asked in a confused tone; they all were shocked.

"Protect them." She ordered them and walked outside.

Theo, being her bodyguard, followed her, leaving Jane, Levi, and a few bodyguards to protect Chris and the Elder master.

"That person made a mistake," Jane said as they both watched her leave the mansion.

"I've only seen her this angry one...he's dead for sure..." Levi said, and they both felt kinda bad for him. They were also curious about who dared to enter the restricted area.

The groups of guards spread across the forest- searching for just one person. The sensors didn't work underground, and neither were there any traps there, so it was pretty difficult to search for him.

A few guards entered the tunnels, and some of them waited at the ends of the tunnels.

Amy was looking at the route from where he had entered the forest. There were a few tools thrown there which he had used to cut the wires. Those tools were pretty commonly used, but the way the wires were cut was not. It made her suspicion increase, and she started feeling a little anxious.

"Mam!" Theo said and came running towards her. She didn't say anything but was all ears to him.

"One of the trackers is moving and it's away from all the guards. I think it's him?" He said as he handed her the tablet.

She looked at the tablet but didn't say anything yet. She didn't seem angry, as if she was expecting this to happen.

It was a tracker of one of their guards, but the location didn't seem too clear; it only happened if the person the underground.

"Where is the guard?" She asked calmly.

"I double-checked, the guard is with one of the groups, it seems like his tracker was lost... and most likely that intruder stole it..." He went quieter as he saw her eyes boil with anger and her fists clench tight.

"He wants us to find him..." She said and smiled the next second, which left Theo quite shocked.

"But won't that led him to death?" Theo asked and was left confused. Amy shook her head as she looked in the direction that the tracker showed.

"He has a mission and for that, he needs to meet me..." She explained to him; his eyes widened as he understood her words.

"You mean he's..." She glared at him, and he stopped talking at once. That anger in her eyes was his answer; he was most likely a spy.

"Send the guards to find him..." She said and turned around.

"Aren't you going now?" Theo asked, and as usual, couldn't understand the sudden changes in her mood.

"The fish wants to get trapped so there's no need to put any extra efforts." She said as she walked towards the car to go back to the mansion, and Theo smiled. He could never understand her intelligence, and that's why she was his boss.

The guards started going in the direction that the tracker showed. Unexpectedly it was an open area with no traps, which made them get suspicious about his next move. He wasn't in the underground holes anymore, and thus they could see his location clearly.

The guards walked slowly, careful about not to warn him of their presence. The trees weren't much high at that place, which could be a red sign for them.

The guards spread around that area, covering him from all sides. They slowly approached that point.

One of the guards looked behind that tree with a gun in his hand, pointed to the front. He was shocked to see that there was no one there, and the small tracker was thrown on the ground. That intruder had misled them.

"He's running loose!" He shouted on top of his lungs.
