Chapter:14 |Behind the bushes |

"I am a human from planet Earth, I and my team were searching for a new planet which we discovered by our latest James Webb Telescope, but unfortunately we lost it ."

" A James what ?". I asked when I couldn't understand those strange words.

"Oh god, not again ".

" Tell me ! ".

"A Telescope, have you heard of it ?".

" No!".

"Um ... in simple words, it gathers light emanating from celestial bodies and reflects it on a mirror through which we can view pretty much a lot and discover beyond our planet ".

" If you are trying to lie here then don't, I am not a fool for sure", I crushed my eyebrows and pointed my finger at him while sternly denying his nonsense.

" Alright ! don't believe me, because I don't get paid by proving myself, have a good day", he said dragging me out of that place, he then went inside," have a good day !", he said before closing the door or may I say the ground.

" Huh? What. A . Babbler!", I hollered getting cross by his behavior.

I turned around to walk away but my breath hitched when I saw someone a few yards away, it was Oliver with his men. I turned around and started jumping over the ground, I was panicking, I eventually sat down on the ground and started looking for some handle, but there was no handle, I saw a thick stick under some bushes and got it out of there. I placed the top of the stick on the ground and pressed it hard on the edge of the door and tried to move it away, but it moved just a little, I tried several more times, but now my hands turning white due to the pressure I exerted on the stick, but it felt like the door was locked, I was sweating badly, I kept looking back at them from time to time.

The man saw something moving in the bushes but ignored it as he thought that it was natural because of the wind.

" Let's check in the front areas "

" Why not here sir?", the same man interrupted.

" Do you find any place to hide over here, it's just some plain land with some bushes, was that enough to answer your question?"

" Sorry, Mr. Oliver ".

Before taking steps ahead, he heard faint noises from the bushes again, he immediately turned around and took lengthened steps towards the bushes, as he pushed himself between the bushes he widened his eyes.

" Thanks for your help".

" You forced yourself inside, but I will consider it a help".

I glared at him but then again moved my gaze at the gate, " do you think that he will know that I am inside?

"Not, I mean, first of all, this place is surrounded by thick bushes, so it is quite dark for your stalker to find it out, other than that I blended the edges of the door pretty well".

"Thanks a lot, babbler "

" What Happened, Brian? found something ?"

" No sir !"

" Huh! already told you !", He shouted rubbing his temples, " so stop wasting my time, will you please?".

" Sorry, sir ".

_____________________________________________________________________________________

" Ahh!", Mrs. Lewis groaned in pain.

" What happened?", Mr. Lewis looked at her with concern.

" Pain in my back is increasing, I can't control it ".

" Let me have a look", said Mr. Lewis.

" Like this ? ", Mrs. Lewis questioned looking at him and then the men who were sitting in the car.

Hearing her, they all went out and locked the car.

" Foolish, right ?", Mrs. Lewis said while laughing lightly.

" What do you mean?".

" did you forget, I can heal myself, I am an Ameliorate.

" Ha haha ha ... ha ... ha ... um then what ?", he looked at her with an answer.

" Call Agatha "

" Why?"

" She is a Droid wight and runs a news channel. Tell her about Hannah! Tell her about Oliver and whatever is happening to us since the sun aroused. Tell her to release this information to the world, it seems like Oliver is keeping it a secret, otherwise, he might have had an army of more men, he keeps with him only those who work at COD".

" Clever ".

He dialed Agatha's number several times but she didn't pick up after a few more tries she received the call.

ON THE PHONE CALL

" Yes ?"

" Why does it take you so long ?"

" Sorry, my mobile was on mute"

" See Agatha, I have to tell you something "

_____________________________________________________________________________________

While walking, Brian got a call, Oliver turned around and saw that it was his phone so he asked, " who is it ?".

Brian took a look at the caller ID and replied, " It is Mr, Robert from the hacking room.

Oliver took his phone and immediately received the call.

" Mr. Oliver ? where are you?".

" in the forest?".

" I think you should surround the forest with some guards and come back".

" Why?"

" Hannah's parents, where are they?"

" caught them looking for her and sent them in the truck "

" who is guarding them?".

" My men"

" They have released the information about her, I heard it "

" Oh god ! they have no skills! ", Oliver shouted before slapping his forehead. " Let me just ask the situation from those dump heads."

A few minutes ago :

A man entered the car,

" Agatha, I want to tell you that Hannah is being chase-".

" Hey ! what are you doing?", the men interrupted Lewis.

" Uh nothing, he is just talking to his grandma, she is sick ", Mrs. Lewis acted.

The men judged them for a while and then snatched the phone from him.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

" No need for that, your men snatched the phone on time ", he assured.

" Oh thank god ".

" I think you should brainwash her parents, make some excuses with proofs, and return so that they won't suspect you".

" Proof? how ?".

" Fake it".
