Chapter 63

The police and the staff of the Gray and Oligario families carefully entered Ythan Marcus' hideout. They are all alert and observant around. Set, Hulyo and Jacob joined the operation while Don Vandolf was left behind in the armored SUV.
 "Sir Jacob!" Set called.
 "Set!" Jacob responded quickly. He looked at the person next to him. "Hulyo, why did you come? Who is with Diana and Yael in the mansion?" he asked.
 "Don't worry. There are a lot of police and Don...papa's staff guarding the mansion," answered Hulyo. Jacob patted him on the shoulder.
 "Don't bother me. You are now part of our family. Actually, we have been family for a long time," said Jacob.
 "What are you planning, Sir Jacob? Are you going inside?" Set asked.
 Jacob nodded. "Uno will accompany me. Some of my staff and some of the police inside have gone ahead. This area is too wide. We need to disperse to speed up the search for Freya and Kuya Jackson. It's going to be difficult. Ythan might still escape, " he said.
 "Be careful, kuya," Hulyo said shyly.
 Jacob smiled. "You too. Remember my sister and your future child. Don't be hasty with Set and don't ever separate. We don't know what awaits us inside. I have a strong hunch that Ythan has prepared something before he executed his plan. Let's do it." Jacob walked to his car. He took something from its compartment.
 "I don't have a good hunch," Set said.
 "You also?" asked Hulyo. "I haven't been feeling well for a while now. It seems like something is wrong. I just can't figure out what it is," he added.
 "Here!" Jacob throws two ballistic vests at Set and Hulyo. "Wear this Fortis Overt Ballistic Vest. It can protect you against handgun fire, knife, and slash attacks, as well as spike damage. Let's see each other again. Don't die," he said in a serious tone.
 "Thank you very much, Sir Jacob," said Set as he put on the Fortis Overt Ballistic Vest he had given.
 "Thank you very much, Kuya Jacob," said Hulyo. He immediately put on the ballistic vest. He needs to protect himself for his wife and son.
 "Remember our goal... to save Freya and Jackson and get out of that building... ALIVE. We all have family members who are patiently waiting for our return. See you later," Jacob stated as he bid goodbye.
 Hulyo and Setyembre nodded. After Jacob entered inside, they immediately followed. Don Vandolf could see them clearly from the armored SUV.
 "Lord, guide my son Jacob, Set, Hulyo, Uno and Dos...my staff and the police. May they save Freya and Jackson. Give me a chance to be good and to do good for my whole family before I disappear from this world," said Don Vandolf with closed eyes. His tears flowed as he prayed.

 Not far away, Ramon and Tamahome were standing on top of their car. They are holding professional long range night vision binoculars. They scanned the area to look for possible snipers and gunmen.
 "It's surprising," said Tamahome.
 "You still don't see an enemy?" asked Ramon.
 "No majesty yet. Apart from the police, I only saw the Gray family and their staff. It looks like I have to go inside as well. It would be better for you if you stay inside the armored car," replied Tamahome.
 Ramon shook his head. "I will go with you. I want Jacob to be ahead of us in the pursuit of Ythan," he said seriously.
 Tamahome and Ramon started to act. Instead of going through the front gate, they chose to go through the back.
 "Your majesty," Tamahome called. Ramon looked at him. "Use this!" He threw a belt at him.
 Tamahome brought two duty belts carrying a Glock firearm, pepper spray, a Taser, radio, a baton, and handcuffs. He also wore a body camera, which is activated and turned on when he responds to a call.
 "Thank you for this! I forgot my gun inside the car," Ramon said.
 Ramon and Tamahome continued walking. They were both holding their guns.
 "Didn't Ythan hear that we're going to raid him tonight?" Ramon said suddenly. Tamahome turned to him. It leads to walking.
 "That's impos—-"
 BANG! BANG! BANG!
 Tamahome and Ramon fired a series of gunshots that suddenly headed in their direction. Tamahome quickly pulled Ramon down. Both of their faces almost sank to the floor. They quickly crawled behind the big buckets for cover and to have a chance to find out who the bullets came from.
 "Shit! Where did it come from?" Ythan murmured as he checked the area with his professional long range night vision binoculars. It was very dark around because of the sudden power outage that happened.
 Tamahome fumbled for his radio on his belt and began to report to his colleagues about what had happened. After he narrated, Ramon spoke.
 "So, Ythan's here," Ramon said, smiling.
 "Good thing, we wore ballistic vests. Your majesty, please be extra careful. Never separate from me," instructed Tamahome.
 "Don't you trust me, Tamahome? I'm your student and you're my teacher. You taught me what to do in this kind of situation." Ramon tapped Tamahome's shoulder.
 "We need to act fast. It will not do us any good if we remain hidden behind these buckets," said Tamahome. He led the walk again while looking around.
 "Do you think it was only one person who fired a gun at us earlier?" asked Ramon.
 "Based on the direction where the shots came from, I think...a ta—"
 The two of them stopped walking again when they were suddenly showered with bullets. This time, it came from a different direction.
 "Damn it!" Tamahome hastily got his radio. "We need back up! I repeat, we need back up!" he yelled. He was shocked when he heard gunshots from his boss' gun.
 "We need to fight them, Tamahome. We can't just run and run!" Ramon said while continuing to fire the gun.
 "Your majesty, you need to stop! They will only find out where we are again! We need to plan and calm down. We must not give in to the gusts of our emotions!" said Tamahome. In the end, he couldn't do anything but fight back.
 One two three four five! Five people wrapped in black clothing fell from the second floor of the building. Tamahome and Ramon have already killed five but it seems that they are not affected!
 Tamahome and Ramon leaned against a large pole panting.
 "Where are your colleagues?" asked Ramon.
 "They're on their way here. The case...Ythan's men blocked them as well," Tamahome quickly responded.
 Tamahome and Ramon loaded their weapons with a new set of gun ammunition.
 "My people," Ramon said.
 Tamahome frowned.
 "They are here," Ramon whispered as he caught his breath. He thought everything will align in their favor not until…
 "Shít! Run, Tamahome! Run!" he exclaimed as his eyes widened when he noticed a grenade heading towards their direction.
