He swung the rifle to his back
and pulled out his side arm
and kept walking forward but
cautiously. He looked back at
intervals to make sure he was
not been followed as that
could cause trouble for all of
them. he kept ducking and
walking along the walls from
one building to another then
he stopped and gave out an
almost silent whistle. The
whistle was almost inaudible
to the human ears but those
he had called out knew what
the whistle was about. He
whistled again and waited
along the wall as he expected
a reply but still none came and
he waited for a little while.

About thirty seconds later, he
heard a similar call coming
from a little distance away and
hewalked a little into the open
trying to see if hecan make
out anybody. He waited and
then he let out a whistle of his
own into the dark and he
waited there with his gun in
his hand but it was lowered
when a figured appeared in
front of him.

He did not move, did not raise
his gun, instead he let out
another whistle as another
figured appeared behind the
first one and before long, then
they became five with all of
them holding what seemed
like guns with them. The first
one walked to him and when
he was just at hearing
distance, he said;
“What’s the status?”
“It did not really go according
to plan. The target is still alive
and the team is still intact. We
lost three members but the
rest are more or less alive. I
managed to trash up the
radio but I don’t know for
how long”

“But what happened with the
helicopter?”

“Your shooter got a little too
excited and fired too early.
She was not aboard when he
shot”

“Fine. So where does that
leave us and the plan now?”
“We are making our way
through the dark and we have
no radio but do you want to
make a move in the dark or
you will rather wait until
dawn?

“We cannot risk the Tetuans
catching up with you so what
you should do is have John
lead you this way and leave
the rest to us”

“But make sure you leave
them before hell drops or else
there is nothing we can do
about that”

At that, the figure walked back
into the dark leaving Dare
standing alone in the dark
and he turned and made his
way back to the team as
though nothing happened but
he walked faster and hoped
they had not gotten
suspicious of his long
absence. He got back to see
Michael still taking the posture
he took earlier and watching.

Immediately he stepped into
sight, Michael pointed his gun
at him but he realized that he
recognized the figured and he
lowered it. Dare looked the
same but to Michael,
something was amiss. He did
not compose himself like he
has done earlier but Michael
dismissed it as it he was not
too convinced and they
moved together into the dark
with John and Dare taking the
lead this time. The team was
lead more by Dare since he
had scouted out earlier, he
would have had more feel of
the environment.
