.

The next day.

The next day after class, the Storm Squad immediately went home to prepare for their mission.

The task given to them was to go investigate a drug dealing that will about to take place in an abandoned warehouse somewhere in the less populated area of Ago. The time of the deal, according to Marcos, will be somewhere seven or eight pm in the night, but he was not entirely sure.

So the Storm Squad need to get there immediately to set their preparations. They asked Marcos on why they didn't report it to the police, but he said it's a secret.

The Storm Squad will just take pictures of the people involved, get their cars' plate numbers and try to snoop on what the drug is.

Six pm.

The five reached the area. Colleen was tasked to be left beside the road and scout for the incoming vehicles. She will then report it to the others through their earpieces.

The other four entered the warehouse. It is a wide and spacious area with scraps of metal and woods scattered around. It is also a three storey building with many partitions and places that can be used for hiding.

At the center of the warehouse is a wide space, that surely will be used for the drug dealing.

Spencer placed a sound recorder on one of the nearer post so they can hear what the drug dealers will talk talk about.

The four also surveyed the area which they can hide. They noticed that there are light bulbs in the place, which means the possibility of having electricity in the place. They didn't bother turning on the lights though.

The four scattered and each went to find their hiding spot. They are waiting like tigers waiting for their preys for half an hour when Colleen alerted them.

"I can see three cars approaching the warehouse. Those must be the people we are waiting for."

"Roger that. But only three cars?"

"Yeah. Oh wait- there are another four cars coming, they must be the other party involved in the deal. Suit yourselves." As Colleen said that, she brought out her telescope and used it to see the moving cars entering the building.

Vroom...vroooomm.....

The first three cars entered the warehouse. It is dark, but after a few minutes, the lights are on, probably someone from those people did it. Just as the lights are turned on, the other group arrived.

The Storm Squad can now see clearly the people that got out from those expensive-looking cars. They look like the typical people that one can see in movies, men in different types of suits guarding their boss or leader or whoever it is.

One man from the other party went to greet another man from the other side. Then they eventually met in the middle while their bodyguards are just standing near the cars, ready for anything that may happen.

Through the sound recorder that is connected to who knows what it is that was in the ears of the Storm Squad members, they can hear the entire conversation of the two men in black. Good thing they placed it.

"It's a pleasure meeting you, Rodman."

"Heh, I'm more pleasured to meet you Jack."

Then the two men in black did a handshake.

"I'll go straight to the point, I hope you brought it." Jack said.

"Heh, don't worry about it, it's all here." The man called Rodman then motioned one of his men to bring something over.

It was a black plastic suitcase. When it was opened, the man called Jack can see sachets of green pills. Each sachet contains one green pill.

"There are fifty sachets, as you requested. A hundred thousand dollars in all." Rodman said as he handed one sachet of the green pill to Jack for inspection. Jack opened it and tasted the pill, then he smelled it and even brought out an alcohol from his pocket and let a drop of alcohol fall to pill.

Upon smelling the pill that emitted a very strong odor when it made contact with the alcohol, Jack elicited a smile.

"Damn yeah, this is the smell that I've been waiting for, I've finally got my hands on these Hemo Pills. Okay, I'm buying all of those." Then Jack ordered one of his men to bring the money.

In the dark, Carlo is taking pictures using his small high tech camera by zooming the images.

The two sides didn't seem to have any harmful intentions as the deal was a success. Jack got his drugs while Rodman got his money.

They were about to discuss another possible deal when they heard a crashing sound.

It was Ana, who fell from her hiding spot. Apparently, she is hiding on a hidden location but she didn't noticed that the wooden slab that she lied down to was a bit rotten. Her weight and her long time of lying in it possibly caused the wood to break apart which resulted in her falling down.

She regained her balance thanks to her reflex, but now she was exposed to all of the people involved in the drug dealing. They can't see her whole face though since she is using a handkerchief to cover her nose from the dust on her hiding place.

The rest of the Squad was shocked but they didn't let themselves be exposed. They only hope that Ana will escape from the scene soon.

Rodman and Jack looked at each other, clueless.

It too them a few seconds to think of the same thing, they are betrayed. But of course, all of what happened was because of Ana's accident.

Ana quickly ran and blended in the dark. The rest of the Squad are also waiting for opportunities to get out and escape.

But for Jack and Rodman, it is different.

"I see, so you didn't plan on selling these drugs to me in the first place right? As if I'll let you take these back!" Jack then turned around and ran towards his bodyguards.

"Prepare yourselves, we are betrayed." Jack shouted while holding the suitcase.

Rodman was about to answer back but he had no choice but get ready for a fight. Rodman thought that the one that they had seen, which was Ana, is someone from Jack's side who was hired to assassinate him. Jack thought of the same thing. That misunderstanding caused the two parties to become wary of each other as they prepare their guns and take cover using the cars.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
