MINEFIELD

It took less than an hour before the car that Edward was driving finally arrived at their destination. Erika looked out of the window and found a building heavily guarded by men in military uniforms with large guns in their arms.

Electric wires were used to surround the building like a fence in case someone wanted to escape. Because of the sun that seemed to want to blind them, Erika wasn't able to look to the top of the building since it was enormously tall.

Noticing their arrival, two military men walked over to them, their heavy black boots making a thud whenever they took a step closer to them and Erika could only wonder just how heavy it was.

When they got to the car, they saluted immediately to show their respect, abruptly bringing their left hands to their forehead while their expressions remained as stoic as ever.

Erika observed them intently and for a second, she thought they held their breath to make their chests puff up like a fish.
