Jack gets out of the car and calls Tony.
Split Screen: Jack speaks with Tony.
"yes?" Says Tony.
"I arrived the house," says Jack. "When will you arrive?"
"In Two minutes"
"Okay, I will wait for you." Jack says and hangs up.
Jack crosses the street and goes to the window by the front door. He bends down and leaned against the wall. He rises a little bit and peeks through the window. He sees a man who looks like a bodyguard. The man is standing next to the living room and has a gun in his holster. After a few seconds Jack bends down again. He pulls out his gun and put on it a silencer.
Presidential Suite
David and Keith are sitting in the sofa and watch TV. There is a knock at the door and David gets up and opens the door. A 42 years old Afro American man is standing at the entrance.
"Hi, how are you Wayne?" Says David and both of them shake hands.
"Good, and you?" Says Wayne and enters the room.
"I'm fine," replies David.
"Hey Keith," says Wayne to Keith.
"Hey," says Keith.
Wayne looks at the TV and says to David: "You see a replay baseball game when in less than four hours you have a speech to the nation. You don't have more important things to do?"
David chuckles and says: "It helps me clear my head and concentrate before going to address the nation." After a few seconds, he asks: "You want to go over my speech now?"

"Yes" answers Wayne.
"Come to my room," says David and he and Wayne are going towards the room.

Tony parks the car and he and the three agents get out of the car. They go to the house in Front of them.
"Hey Jack," says Tony.
"Hey," says Jack approaching them. He turns to Tony and asks: "Have you briefed them?"
"Sort of" says Tony.
Jack turns to everyone and says: "Okay, listen up, we need to catch Lucas Collins alive, he is a businessman who apparently once worked with terrorists."
"You know what he looks like?" Tony asks.
"Yes," says Jack and takes out his phone.
Jack shows them a picture of Lucas and says: "Now, the man that Lucas did business with him today is living in this house and it is important we catch him alive. Is that clear?"
"Yes," replies one of the agents and the other two agree.
"Oh, and before we enter the house you need to know that there is a guard next to the living room." Jack says. "I will enter first and stun him."
Jack, Tony and the agents walk toward the front door of the house. Jack and Tony pull out the pistols and the three agents are holding their rifles. Jack is leaning against the wall near the door on the right, and Tony is leaning on the left side of the door. Jack nods toward Tony and opens the door. Jack sees the back of the guard. Jack approaches a few steps toward the guard and gives him a blow to the neck. The guard faints. Jack looks over the staircase and sees an armed man. The man sees Jack. He pulls out a gun and before he can shoot at Jack, Jack shoots at him twice, knocking him to the floor.

Tony and the three agents enter the house. They move slowly and Jack signals with his hand to two agents to check the floor below. The two agents walk into the living room and Jack, Tony and one of the agents go up the staircase. They come to the second floor. Jack turns to the right and soon Two shots are fired at him. Jack immediately goes back and takes cover in the wall. Jack moves a little to the left, sees another armed man and shot at him three bullets. He again takes cover and the bodyguard shots two bullets at him. Tony passes Jack and fires at bodyguard three bullets. He hits him twice and the bodyguard falls. Tony, Jack and the agent are heading towards the open door located next to the body of the bodyguard. They reach the door and a smoke grenade thrown out to their direction. There is a sound of rifle shoots and Jack and Tony take cover in the right wall of the door and the agent leans on the left wall of the door. The agent gets out of the shelter and shoots several bullets into the room.
"Don't shoot!" Jack says. "You don't know who you will hit."
The agent leans back against the door and the smoke grenade begins to clear. No shot is heard for a few seconds and Jack leaves his shelter and gets into the room. Tony and the agent enter after him and they see that Ryan is lying on the floor, bleeding from the stomach.
"Dammit" says Jack and addresses the agent: "Why did you shoot him?! This man is the house owner who have done business with Lucas. We needs him alive."
"How do you know that the house belongs to him?" Asks the agent.
"It's obvious," says Jack. "There's a picture of him on the table from the army and why do you think the bodyguards was defending this room." Jack says angrily.
Jack bends and checks Ryan's pulse.
"He still has a pulse, but his condition isn't good," says Jack. "I need a towel to stop his bleeding from the stomach."
"I will bring," says Tony and leaves the room.
Jack gets up and calls Chloe.
Split Screen: Chloe stops working on the computer and she answers the phone and Jack talks to her.
"We arrived at the apartment, but the house owner who had done business with Lucas is now badly wounded in the stomach," says Jack. "I need that you will send here an ambulance quickly. I don't know if he will survive it."
"Okay," says Chloe.
Jack notices a decoration from the army that is hanging on the wall. He looks at it and sees that in the end it says: "In recognition to
Ryan McLaine"
"Jack?" Chloe says.
"Chloe, I know this man," says Jack.
"What do you mean?" Asks Chloe.
"I served with him in the army."

Nights of Sambria: And the Wish of Light
“I discovered a secret. One I desperately wish could have stayed hidden. It was locked away, concealed in a fantastical world on the doorstep of 7 billion people who stayed utterly oblivious to it. If they will be spared the terror that is coming, I can’t begin to imagine. Know that a forgotten heritage of a dwindling people whispered, unknowingly sending a call to the ancient mysteries of the world. Something listened. And now events are set in motion that could force the earth on a course of terrible change. I am being hunted and have run out of time. There were no stories about it. No legends. Not even scribbles. Yet, the threat of it is real and that’s why I’m writing this warning with shaking hands. So pay attention those who read this, be careful of what lies waiting cloaked in the darkness. That which made their home the lost places of this world.” She folded the letter with a shuddering breath and stared back in the direction from where the noise reverberated through the halls. It was of stone doors shattering one by one. The chances of getting out safely were all but gone. The letter in her hand was all warning they would have. It dropped into one of the Wells and all that could be done now was hope it was found in time, if at all. -- This was my very first large story. ;) I started writing it years ago. Was fun, was difficult, but in the end, it is a story I hope that will inspire. The prologue is in first person perspective and the rest of the story in 3d. Just a little heads-up :P It is a fantasy epic with a contemporary twist for the start. The first arc of the novel is set inside our modern world, but as the mysterious events around Calin intensifies, the hidden secrets in the world start to become more fantastical. The story follows Calin, a young orphan in search of answers. But, the answers he seeks will change his life and that of his friends forever, for the secrets that caused his situation have far greater ramifications than the small village of Lamb's Crest could have known. Remember to leave ratings and reviews. I'm quite interested in hearing your thoughts on the story. ;) Enjoy reading, Omri Hope
