Traitor

He exhaled and focused. "System, can you hack into any phone in the vicinity and recover suspicious data regarding any involved party?"

[System Notification]Initiating wide-area signal breach...Scanning for active devices within a 50 km radius...Identified 342 active devices. Filtering relevant data...

Filtering complete. Three flagged communications retrieved:

Encrypted call logs between an unidentified Mossad agent and an unknown Pakistani number.

Text messages between an ISI informant and a suspected LeT operative referencing 'foreign guests.'

A deleted email from a private server, mentioning the name 'Asim Nazir' alongside coordinates for a planned convoy route.

Surya narrowed his eyes. The pieces were coming together, but the picture wasn't clear yet. He accessed the decrypted files and began analyzing the contents.

The encrypted call logs were brief but concerning:

Mossad Agent: "We're compromised. We need extraction."Unknown Contact: "Hold position. Counter-surveillance is in play. Do not engage."

Someone was watching Mossad just as closely as Surya was.

The text messages painted an even grimmer picture:

ISI Informant: "They're moving soon. Foreign guests might be in danger. Orders?"LeT Operative: "Observe. If they interfere, eliminate."

Surya clenched his fists. This wasn't just an intelligence exchange—this was a battlefield in the making. Mossad's presence had already drawn attention, and if the ISI was willing to use LeT operatives, then things were spiraling fast.

But it was the deleted email that sealed it. The coordinates matched the Pakistani General's planned convoy route to China. If someone was planning an attack, it wasn't RAW or Mossad. This was an entirely different player.

"System, scan the number of LeT operatives and Mossad agents in the area," Surya commanded in his mind.

[System Notification]Scanning intelligence grid...LeT operatives detected: 12 confirmed, 4 suspected.Mossad agents detected: 3 confirmed, 2 suspected.

Surya frowned. The numbers were worse than expected. Mossad was outnumbered and at a severe disadvantage if an ambush was already in play.

Shadow, who had been focused on the road, suddenly spoke. "How do you know this much?"

Surya glanced at him. "What do you mean?"

Shadow kept his eyes on the road. "You're a fresh recruit. Yet, you're reading intelligence like a senior analyst. That's not normal."

Surya maintained his neutral expression. "I study. I adapt."

Shadow didn't press further, but his silence carried suspicion. Surya knew his skills were drawing attention, but he couldn't afford doubt from his allies.

After a moment of silence, Surya subtly guided the jeep toward an empty house on the outskirts of the town. "Park here," he instructed.

Shadow raised an eyebrow but complied. "Why here?"

Surya scanned the surroundings before answering. "Safer spot to observe. If anything goes wrong, we have cover and multiple exit points."

Shadow gave him another long look, clearly still assessing him, before nodding. "Smart thinking."

The desert wind howled around them as they settled in, waiting for their meeting. But Surya's mind was already deep into his next move.

Surya turned his focus inward. "System, mark the locations of all detected LeT operatives and Mossad agents on a map."

[System Notification]Generating tactical map...Marking confirmed and suspected hostile positions...Data synced to personal interface.

A digital map appeared before Surya's eyes, glowing faintly as red and blue markers indicated enemy and allied positions. He studied the terrain, noting choke points and possible ambush zones.

"System, can I manipulate signals to block the traitor's communication and guide Mossad to a safe position?" Surya asked mentally.

[System Notification]Signal manipulation in progress...ISI informant's device blocked.Mossad secure line established.

Surya swiftly dialed the Mossad agents. "Your location is compromised. Head to the safe house marked on this map immediately. Avoid main roads."

There was a brief pause before a voice responded. "Understood. Moving now."

With the Mossad agents now heading to safety and the traitor's signal jammed, Surya exhaled, knowing he had bought them time.

An hour later, at the designated safe house, the Mossad agents finally arrived. Surya watched as they stepped inside, their cautious eyes scanning the surroundings. One of them, a tall man with sharp features, immediately raised his weapon, eyeing Surya suspiciously. "Identify yourself."

Surya raised his hands calmly. "RAW. I ensured your escape."

Another agent, a woman with short black hair, narrowed her eyes. "We were not expecting outside help. Who sent you?"

Shadow, standing beside Surya, remained silent, waiting for him to respond.

Surya met their gaze evenly. "Same side, same goal. You were walking into an ambush. I blocked the traitor's communications and led you here."

The Mossad agents exchanged glances before the first man slowly lowered his weapon. "Alright. But we don't trust easily. We'll need proof you're not leading us into another trap."

Surya smirked. "Then stick around. You'll see soon enough."

The tension in the air lingered, but the foundation of trust had been laid.

To confirm the traitor, Surya asked, "Let me see the your phone, dont worry I am on gunpoint here."

Jack hesitated before handing it over. Surya quickly connected it to his laptop and then linked his system.
