Almighty Father System

Leo loaded his weapon and took a deep breath, and focused on dealing with the trouble in the way. He was aware that it wouldn't be easy, but he had to do it. Kyle said, "Sir, I think it would be better to avoid confrontation."

Leo thought for a bit and said, "You are right, I didn't intend to confront them. Jock, do you see anyone on the Ground floor?"

Jock switched through the cameras and said, "Negative. They are located on the second floor, a few on the second, and the basement."

Leo nodded and said, "There are two elevators in the basement that open up near the auditorium. If we use the elevator shaft to get up, and target them from there, it would be easy, no?"

There were five guards, all equipped with sub-machine guns or assault rifles, they were shocked to see that Leo could come up with something like this. The people looked at each other and nodded quickly.

Leo said, "Let's go then."

He moved first, followed by Kyle and his team. Jock was left behind to man the security room and he locked it from the inside.

Leo and the five men came to the elevator shafts and the young man said, "Three in each shaft, Jock has turned off the electricity and the backup generator. We have three minutes to climb, unlock the first floor gates and take down the enemy before taking cover. However, it would be loud, so four will tackle and two will play back up to cover from anyone who comes down from the first floor."

The people nodded and they used a key Kyle had grabbed from the maintenance box in the security room. That place was used for more than one purpose and there were many important things present.

Kyle opened the door to the shaft and the people went inside. It was not too dark, as the shaft had an emergency lighting system which worked independent of the power system. The guards climbed up using the metal bars on the wall that acted like ladders.

They all gained a footing on the cross beams inside the shafts, and Kyle said slowly, "I will unlock it, and then we can open them together."

On the other side, Leo nodded and watched as Kyle unlocked the safety system which prevented the doors from being pushed open. The young man counted with his fingers and when he reached zero. The men pulled open the doors, Kyle and Leo were the first to leap out of the doors.

Leo had already raised his assault rifle, and he had taken aim as well. Before his feet even touched the ground, he fired the first shot.

Bang!

The terrorists were also so busy shooting and kicking the sides of the shutter that they didn't even realize that some were shooting at them. Leo was clever, he didn't shoot the man at the back, but at the front. The people were so engrossed that they didn't realize as the blood splattered on the shutter.

Then Kyle also joined Leo followed by the rest of the people.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

They fired tactically and within three seconds the party attacking the shutter was neutralized. Leo then waved his hand and everyone took positions in the cover. With the lights coming from outside the ground floor was still dimly illuminated, and Leo said, "Three of you hide here and cover the stairs. If any bastard comes down, shoot them."

The people nodded, and Kyle asked, "What about us, Sir?"

The young man looked at the entrance and said, "We can either play to be the hero, or we can handle the enemy out there to let the soldiers come in. What do you think?"

The guards all looked at Leo and then they nodded, Kyle said, "Sir, let us call those uniforms inside, this way we will save them some face."

Leo chuckled and said, "Good."

He picked up the walkie in his hand and then he said, "This is Dart to Executioner, do you copy? Over?"

"Go for executioner. Over."

Leo replied, "We have taken control of the ground floor, and the basement is still blocked and secure. We will try to open the door, and provide support from the inside. Can you tell us how many men are blocking the main gate? Over."

The other side was shocked and they had no idea, how to answer the question, until a few seconds later, another person said, "Dart, well done, there are fifteen men blocking the main gate, the rest are surrounding the hotel and firing from the cover, you don't have to worry about that just focus on the men outside the main gates. Also, they have set an EID on the main gate, so don't act rashly, we can help you diffuse it from here, confirm status after inspection. Over."

Leo nodded and waved his hand to Kyle, who moved behind him with another man as they covered the distance of seventy meters cautiously looking for any enemy hiding in the shadows ready to jump on them.

Twenty meters away from the door, Kyle knelt on his knee as he took position behind the formation and said, "Delta, be quick about it. I have the back."

Delta replied, "Roger captain."

Delta was the only one next to the door, Leo and Kyle were lying prone on the ground twenty meters away. The two people were very anxious, Leo would be lying if he said that he was fine.

After five minutes, Delta sighed and said, "Its done, Cap."

Kyle and Leo stood up and they moved closer to the door. Delta said, "Bastards had hidden seven relay circuits, that's why it took some time."

Kyle frowned and said, "Seven Circuits? Isn't that exclusive to that asshole Claud?"

Delta nodded and said, "Big chance he is up there on the second floor."

Kyle clicked his tongue and said, "It would have been nice to kill him with my own hands."

Delta coughed and looked at Leo, however, the young man wasn't interested in the conversation of the two people, he was looking outside the door, checking the positions of the terrorists.

There were five three meter thick stone pillars outside the hotel that served as the porch. Across the porch and the driveway lay a big garden which was now empty and the military was at least two hundred meters away from the pillars. There was no cover in the lawn, even if they were to use the tactical shields they won't be able to come closer.

Leo spotted ten terrorists hiding behind the pillars. Two of them occupied one pillar, and then he leaned to the left and the right as he said, "The person outside said there are fifteen of them. I see ten. The other five seem to be a bit troublesome to locate."

The two men nodded, and Leo picked the walkie before he said, "Executioner, do you read? Over?"

"Go, Dart, Over."

Leo said, "We can spot ten assailants, negative on the five others. Can you provide better information? If we attack now, then the other five will overwhelm us and The ones in the surroundings will also gather. Over"

Executioner replied after a few seconds, "The moment you open fire, we will take out the five, we have them under sniper scope."

Leo thought about it and he nodded, just when he was about to push open the door, a loud voice echoed in the surroundings, "Dear citizens of Angkor City, this is Claud Jan Tai. The leader of the Cobra Assault Force. I understand that you all consider me to be a terrorist, but I don't care. So, if you haven't thought about sending out a negotiator, I will start killing people in about the next ten minutes. If you tried to enter the hotel, that would be equal to setting off the twenty kilogram of RDX I have planted over the establishment. One click and the place will become rubble and bones. So, you have ten minutes to decide if you want to negotiate or shall I reduce the number of the oxygen consumers inside the hotel. The time starts now."

The message caused the terrorists outside to chuckle and even celebrate. Leo felt sick in his stomach and he was boiling with rage so much that he wanted to kill them all. However, even he knew that this one message caused the situation to falter so much that even if the military wanted to enter the building, they wouldn't dare.

Right then, his walkie went off, "Dart, do you copy? This is executioner, hold on, and wait for the next instruction before making any move."

Leo frowned and his grip around the gun tightened so much that it was shivering and his hand turned pale. Then he raised the walkie up to his mouth and said, "Roger, Over and Out."

That said, he tossed the walkie to Kyle and said, "You wanted to kill Claud, yeah? Let's go, I also want to kill him, and we have ten minutes to do all that. Call out everyone apart from Axel and Joel. Tell them to shift the guests to different rooms. Get moving. I am pissed off."

Leo was really pissed off, he wanted to kill this man so much right now that he might not even rely on the gun.
