I am Going In
Outside, Jason's car was parked at the shoulder of the road. With him was just two guards. He had all the guards watching the house to ensure no one attacked his son
"That road to the location you mentioned looks like a dead end," Henry pointed out.
"It is a dead end," Jason said.
"How do you figure?" Henry asked.
"The road ends in front of a warehouse. When my stepfather was alive, he worked closely with the man who owned this warehouse. I am not entirely sure what happened to that man. We woke up one day and he was nowhere to be found. Dead or alive no one knows. He sold the company overnight. My stepfather visited the place saying he had a home inside this warehouse. He thought he could find him here but the place was empty. We checked all the rooms except for one room that was locked with a huge padlock from the outside. It was the first and last time I visited this place," Jason narrated.
"Wow, you rich and powerful people have hidden stories," Henry commented.
"Hmm," Jason said. "Now listen carefully. I have already alerted the police. I need you to stay in touch with them and get this place surrounded," he said and Henry frowned.
"Are you going to do what I think you are going to do?" Henry said.
"Just do as I say. I am going in," Jason said ignoring Henry's question.
"Mr Haward, you have no idea, how many people are in there, let alone what weapons there are carrying. It's just you, and two guards. You are outnumbered. I say we wait for the police to get here," Henry advised.
"That sick twisted psycho of a man took advantage of Julia before, and he will do it again. He has a strong desire to have Julia. I can't allow that to happen again," Jason said and held the car door handle.
"Mr Haward, please. This looks like a suicide mission. I am sure he knows you are coming and he will be waiting for you. You two grew up together and I am sure, he had already anticipated you would come alone. Please let's wait for the police. Think about your son," Henry said and Jason frowned.
"So I should sit here and tuck my tail in between my legs while he molester my wife? Hell no," Jason growled and opened the car door.
Henry just watched him exit the car knowing he could not pull him back in.
"Give me your gun," Jason said to one of his guards and he quickly handed Jason his gun.
Jason tucked the gun to his back and covered it with his jacket. Henry watched Jason walk down the road. He left the tracker with him to lead the police to the place once they arrived.
Jason after walking for a while took a detour lane. He ran on that road as fast as his legs could take him and soon the warehouse was in view. He was approaching the warehouse from behind. He kept his head lowered as he took slow steps towards the warehouse. He was soon behind the wall. He walked under the wall till he reached the back gate which was locked with a huge padlock. He peeped inside the compound behind the warehouse and realized there was no one in the backyard. There were some big containers on trailers which appeared not to have been touched in years. He climbed the gate, landed inside the compound and quickly hid behind one of the containers as he kept his gaze on the warehouse and occasionally scanned around to ensure looking out for anyone who would show his face. He moved to the next container and he saw someone enter the backyard. He quickly went under one of the parked trailers. He watched the person toss something into the bin and he went back inside. Jason came out from under the trailer only for a gun to be pointed to his head.
"Slowly," came the voice of the person.
Jason slowly stood up to his feet looking at the person from the corner of his ears. He raised his hand in surrender.
"Now move," the person said and Jason took a step.
In his second step, he grabbed the hand of the man moving his head swiftly to the side. Jason quickly disarmed the man, punched him in the jaw with his elbow and landed a dangerous blow to his chest. The man lost two of his teeth immediately and coughed out blood collapsing to the ground in front of the trailer. Jason pulled him to the back of the trailer.
"Now, if you want to live, tell me, how many people are in there?" Jason questioned and the man smiled as blood trickled down his lip.
Jason realizing the man was not going to say anything to him, delivered a deadly punch to the man's neck and he coughed out another blood and fell on his side with his eyes opened. Jason stood up and slowly walked towards the warehouse. He leaned against the wall when he got close and started walking towards the gate.
"Stop right there," came a masked man.
The man had a gun in his hand and he aimed it at Jason whose back was turned to him. Jason turned around to face the man but in the move, he kicked the gun from the man's hand and quickly grabbed him. Without wasting time, he broke his neck. He pulled him to the back of the trailer and added him to the other guy. He took the clothes of the man and put them on. He took the man's mask off and he put it on. He boldly walked towards the warehouse with his disguise. He opened the back door and entered. There were shelves with boxes packed on them. The shelves with boxes were everywhere lined up in multiple files. He walked in between them towards the front. He could hear voices and one of them was James.
"He is going to come with probably two or three of his guards. Kill the guards and bring him to me, wounded," James said.
"Yes, sir. Two people have gone to the back and the rest have secured the front and the sides," the guard reported.
"Good," James said. "Once Jason arrives, we will get to business," he said.
Jason walked through the shelves and went to the front. He picked up the bar and gently placed it behind the closed door. He walked through the shelves heading for the place where he had heard the voices.
Jason entered the open space and one of the guards glanced at him but said nothing. There were just four guards inside there with James. Hearing what James had said, Jason knew most of the guards were outside. Jason's eyes fell on Julia who was tied up to a chair with her eyes covered. She was sitting on a chair just in her underwear. James who was sitting down on a chair got up and walked towards Julia. He rested his hands on Julia's shoulder and Jason's eyes widened. James ran his hand on Julia's shoulder and Julia shifted her body trying to avoid James's touch.
"Take your filthy hands off me," Julia yelled and James chuckled, his hand movement stopped.
James moved from behind Julia and stood in front of her. He landed a slap across her face causing her to fall with the chair. Jason moved, pulling the gun from behind him. He first shot James in the shoulder and quickly dropped to the floor shooting the four guards down. They all received a bullet in their forehead.
"You move and I will end you," Jason said but he froze in place when he saw James holding a gun to Julia despite the wound on his shoulder.
"I knew you would come. Except I didn't know you were already here," James chuckled and rested one hand on the leg of Julia's chair which was lying on the side.
"Now if you don't want me sending a bullet up Julia's butt, drop that gun and let's talk," James said and Jason dropped the gun on the floor staring at James.
