Chapter 6;
{A few hours after the fight}
"Hello!? Hello?! Is anyone there!? Answer me, danm it!!"
"Ah! Y-Yes."
"This is an INTERPOL headquarters; how may I help you?"
"Finally!! Hello! This Worden Luke tail speaking of Valshiri prison! Code-#009927!"
"We confirmed your code, so what can we do for you, Worden Luke?"
"Emergency! Emergeny! Prisoner Name: Cale Valtia Stark! H-He's free!"
"HUH!?"
"Freed by two intruders, two males in their twenties. Not only that! They also managed to defeat Lieutenant Lester! All three of them are now on run!"
"Based on threat-level and gravity of their crimes, I deemed them, to be enemies of the world government."
"Please send us the full report on the situation and the picture of the intruders."
"I'm sending it now…"
"We got it! "
"After a quick verification, I will submit it for approval."
"Don't forget, now!! "
"These three are dangerous criminals; I request that their names to be published immediately in tomorrow's paper."
"We are on it!!"
{INTERPOL Headquarters}
"So, in short, our branch forces were unable to dealt with this particular group of two invaders, and not only did they manage to break free Cale Valtia. They also defeated Lester!?"
"Ah! Y-Yes!! "
"These two disguised themselves as ordinary soldier to break into the prison."
"What else? "
"Were there any casualties?"
"Not particularly, sir. Four of our soldiers were just knocked out cold. Worden Luke, on the other hand, suffered major bone fractures on his face, and so did Lieutenant Lester. But he's having some serious injuries, including a shattered vertebral column and femur in both of his legs.
"Currently, he is not currently in any life-threatening situation due to his vitality and willpower, and two renown doctors have been assigned to him, 24/7"
"Phew! At least he's safe, so what do we know about these invaders!?"
"Well, sir, we did find some leads, but they're not that very relevant;"
"It's up to me to decide, Sargent! Speak!"
"Y-Yes sir! Sorry, sir! We did a background check on these two intruders. What we know is that the guy you see on the screen is named Ray Falcon; a military veteran, who served under the world government's third regiment for two years but is now retired from his duties for 9 months. Due to a fatal injury suffered by him during the Gray war;"
"According to our sources, he was dispatched to Kings' Landing, where he was discharged from the city hospital and met Leon Winter after a few days;"
"Then he met with this guy! The guy you are currently seeing is the same guy who defeated Lieutenant Lester, all by himself."
" His name, Ashu L. Stark; his age is unknown; he is a professional dungeon raider; very little is known about him; all we know is that he was a guild member in King's Landing, for two years. He had recently rented a brand-new apartment, and was looking for tenants; that's when Sir Leon came across him.
He introduced Ray Falcon and Ashu L. Stark to each other, and the next day both of them started sharing the apartment;"
"What about their families or relatives?"
"No, sir, according to army records, Ray Falcon was an orphan with no living relatives or families ok speak of, he was brought up in an orphanage, and Ashu L. Stark, well, everything about him except his name is fake; he forged his ID and all the papers about him."
"Sigh… So, what is their connection to Cale Valtia?"
"Did they know each other from before?"
"No, sir, we have nothing else on them."
"…"
"There aren't many hiding places with Cale Valtia's notoriety, but I'm more surprised to hear Lester being defeated by a no-name kid;"
"Valtia is one thing; I understand he's a strong guy, brought by one of the strong families, but he's too young and hasn't had much of an experience, so him beating Lester has a slim chance, but to think a guy this Ashu guy, with no background what so ever can defeat Lester, all by himself!"
"This means that this Ashu fellow is much stronger than Cale Valtia and may pose a future threat to us, with them combining;"
"Sargent! Inform every major news organisation and media outlet that, this information will be printed in tomorrow's newspaper. And distribute three wanted posters around the world, as well as huge bounties on their heads, especially on this guy. "
"Don't let them escape, we must weed out buds of evil from this world before they can spread out;"
"As you command, sir!! "
"I'm on it!"
{One day after the prison break}
{Ashu's POV:}
'Where am I? Oh, now I remember! I believe it is time for me to wake up, and I hope we were able to succeed in our escape.' I thought to myself, as I slowly, opened my eyes. The darkness around me began to be replaced by a blurry white light;
After a few seconds, my eyes adjust themselves and the blurriness got fade away, the view of a white cloud started to drift in, like tufts of cotton candy floating across the blue ocean. They looked so soft and fluffy that it seemed as if you could reach up and touch them. With birds flying around made me think what a beautiful day it is. The sun shone brightly, and a cool breeze hit my face, and I sat up, looking around to see Ray sitting across a bonfire, roasting three skewers of meat in the yellow flames. He glanced my way and looked surprised. With his face lit up, he came running at me and asked,
"So, you finally decided to wake up, huh?" asked Ray, joyfully.
"Sorry for making you worry."
"So... we managed to escape."
"Yep! After you passed out, Cale and I took your unconscious body and drove our way out of that place; we drove for a whole day then stopped here for some supplies," said Ray;
"Had anyone followed us?" I asked.
"Nope, Cale made sure of that; He drove us through the jungles and mountains to avoid any other confrontation;"
"Phew! "By the way, where is he?" I said, as I stood up and stretched my body a little, losing some muscle tension; I still felt my body sore due to the fatigue and overexertion.
"He went hunting, he said that he wanted something nutritional to eat, and protein bars are useless;" My stomach growled, and I felt a pang of hunger all over my body just thinking about the food;
"Do we have some bars left?"
"Yeah, you want some?"
"Yes please, I'm so hungry!" Ray walked over to our luggage and rifled through it, looking for some bars, while I sat down, my back supported by a tree behind me.
"Here, and take some water first;" Ray handed me three protein bars and a bottle of water; I drank some of the water and ate all the bars he got for me in just a few minutes.
A wave of relief washed over me as my stomach reacted to certain foods.
"Woah! "Easy there, avoid overeating; you don't want to make yourself sick, now do you;"
"GULP!"
"Ray…"
"Hmm"
"I'm sorry…"
"For what!?"
"Now that you're one of the criminals as a result of my actions, I'm sure Interpol heard about us and may have already plastered our photos all over the newspaper;"
"May!? I think you've got something wrong there. "
"They already issued wanted posters for all of us, look at the front page," Cale said as he emerged from the woods; he threw a bundle of newspaper in our direction, then put a dead boar on the ground, and sat down in front of the fire with his long blond hair tied in a ponytail.
His wounds were now all bandaged; his once-dirty face is now clear and smooth, and a slight scar on his right eye made him so attractive that any girl would shy away. His toned body and the old scars covering all over his whole body, got me thinking about, what kind of life he was living.
Ray and I looked through the newspaper, and upon flipping through the pages, we arrived on the first page, Our eyes bulged out of shock; all three of our photos were on the front page, and out of all three, mine is the biggest. All our posters covered up half of the front page.
"Wanted… Ashu L Stark and Ray Falcon forced their way into the Valshiri prison on May 3, 2022."
"They disguised themselves as one of the soldiers and managed to free a heinous criminal named Cale Valtia Stark; together, these three injured four military soldiers and severely injured Warden Luke Tail of Valshiri Prison and the captain of the base town, Lieutenant Lester. " Ironically, Ray read out loud, the lines from the newspaper.
"These three are now on the run; due to the severity of their crimes, the government decided to place three bounties on these three and issue rewards on their heads; if you see any of them, please notify your local authorities." Our bounties were quite high: I was a five-star criminal with a $20 million bounty, Ray was two stars with a $9 million reward, and Cale was three stars with a $10 million bounty.
"What the?! ", we both exclaimed, looking at the massive amount on our respective heads.
