8 Chapter 7: Having fun in C.A.

" Don't worry your ass, Han Mihai, he will do as he is told." assured Alexander.

" I know that he has always been your puppet, following your every bidding, but you must not forget whose son, he is. Your elder brother was the most stubborn and manipulative person, there was, so be careful," Han Mihai reminded.

Banging the table in front of him out of anger, he looked up at Han Mihai, who had always been his most trusted ally and his second in command, and said with gritted teeth," I. said. I. know. what. I. am. doing.

Using Xander will make us look less suspicious because he is just a young boy going abroad to study. He is also smart enough to know that he can't betray me." Alex finished with eyes burning in rage.

Frightened by instant rage of his master over his simple observation, he bowed in fear because he alone is aware of what evil he was willing to do to get what he wants.

"I understand, master,'' Han Mihai bowed, raising his head, he continued, "Forgive my insolence, but I-I sstill insist, we watch him closely."

"I understand as well, that is why Agent Choi and Agent Bai are following them as my eyes and ears. Now check up our intel over there for any news on his landing, I need to go to the lab immediately." ordered Alexander.

Han Mihai bowed in affirmation and looked surprised, 'why is he going to the lab now, don't tell me...' He looked at the closed door and sighed tiredly. But the ever observant Han Mihai failed to notice the presence at the corner of the wall near the study.

Stepping out of his hidden corner, Tyler looked around him before sneaking out.

On the private jet of X-Lee Conglomerate, in a private room, Xander places the glass of wine in his hand on the center table and turned to the three young men before him with a foreboding look in his eyes.

"So, he is not still going to give up, tsk tsk, and to think that he's gonna use those two to watch us, haa," he said staring out the window.

" I know, right, he should have at least tried something better, but those old geezers, come on, what does he takes us for," scoffed Sam, playfully. Being the chatterbox among them, he continued," Like seriously, he should have used, um, yeah,I know...," he shifted in his seat as he was giving his 'awesome' idea, with excitement in his eyes but was cut off by his elder brother.

" Shhhhhh, shut it already, do you want those two to wake up and find out that we're here together," Henry whispered.

"Oh, sorry, but don't worry, I made sure to use enough sleeping gas till the end of the flight and besides our Einstein here made it," Sam pointing at Tyler before winking at his brother. ' Lame', Henry snotted and rolled his eyes.

"Will the both of you, shut it," Tyler scolded while massaging his head with his fingers as Xander turned to him quizzically.

" I don't just get it,'sighs', am trying to get the hang of something here. What relations does Alex have with the Williams family. I mean he has been here all his life and they have been in Country A for a long time now and just popped into the socialites after ten years, that's after they made a name for themselves,..... it still doesn't add up," concluded Tyler.

Nodding at what he said, Xander said," You're right, but that isn't our business, am sure, it has to do with the fact that he can't leave our country. It must be connected but we'll find out when we get there..... you said that he was headed to the lab, right?," Xander asked to which the Kim brothers looked up with fright in their eyes as it has been buried deep in their hearts.

" Yeah, um,..." Tyler answered hesitantly as he looked at Henry who already abandoned his laptop and was looking paler and Sam who was already biting his nails in fear, an old habit of his whenever he was scared.

"I don't think we should talk about that now, Xander, um, how about later." Tyler persuaded as he didn't like the look on their faces one bit and he still couldn't get what happened to them that they were always scared like shit whenever they spoke of the lab, even Xander but he overcame the fear somehow.

'Exhales', "You two, have to be strong and let it go. I know that it's hard and it's also my fault bu...," Xander said facing the Kim brothers when Sam cut him off.

"No man, it's okay, you can't continue blaming yourself for what happened, arghhh!! like you said we have to be strong and ready for what we're about to face in Country A, right bro." Sam asserted and faced his brother who was already nodding at them.

"Okay, since we're all good, what do you think he is going to the lab for, he hasn't gone there since...," Tyler started but.

" Tyler!! Not now we don't want to talk about the lab please," Henry stressed as he was already vexed with how he kept bringing it up because he didn't get to experience what they did.

"Alright, alright, am sorry." Tyler said raising his hands in surrender.

Being his cheerful self again, Sam stood up and went over to the bed and bouncing on it, "Well, I know, we're on a mission but let's make use of this opportunity to have fun,okay? Not only boring work all the time, like seriously, Country A has a lot of amazing places, babes and so much more guys, com' on guys," he said feeling all excited and pumped up.

"Yeah right and you get to do all those stuff when you aren't even eighteen," Henry scoffed.

"Just because you're older with three years, doesn't give you enough leverage, bro, just one more year, duh!" Sam fired back.

"Alright, you two can stop now," Xander said sipping his wine like an elegant prince with a demeanor of god.Going back to what he was doing, Henry wondered when he started taking wine now before going to bed.

Being the ever worrywart Tyler still said," We can have some fun but we still need to be careful, Han Mihai isn't here and those two will still be like hawks on our every move, so be on alert men."

" Of course, yeah man, that's what am talking about," Sam said jumping in excitement and clinking glasses with the Tyler and Xander who were chuckling softly at the happy puppy but paused when they all saw Henry frowning seriously.

Then he started typing furiously on his laptop. "Oh my gosh, no no no no no!!!! What the hell!!! What is going on."

" What's with the problem, Henry?" asked Xander.

"What's up, bro," asked Sam.

" Are you wearing contacts," exclaimed Tyler.

They asked all at once as they hurried to Henry's back to look at his laptop and know the cause of the alarm but they paused and looked at Tyler like he was nuts.

"What?!! Don't you guys see his new eye colour," Tyler asked because he wasn't liking the look that he was getting.

'Exhales'. "That is not important now," Henry said, holding down his anger at his stupidity, like what the hell!!

"Look, I think I've been hacked and it looks serious," Henry said with a mortified face.

" What? That's impossible..... I mean this is anew model from X-tech and it isn't that can be hacked easily.....haaa this is serious." Xander said looking equally as mortified as Henry was.

" Woah, that means whoever did this is good?" Sam asked as he was clueless on tech stuff.

"But how did this happen," Tyler asked now looking serious. "What exactly were you looking for?" He asked.

Henry looked up at them and answered,"Well, since we don't know much about this Williams family, I was trying to find anything on them, cos this mission, don't you guys find it weird that we don't even know what they look like and Alex didn't give us a lead. I just tried to get hold of a picture but only the Head of the family and the Heir was what I got but their daughter,her face was a blur in the pictures I got from a socialite gathering and for the record, a masquerade ball." He rambled on and paused to catch his breath and continued.

" Well, I check more on them but could only get that they rose up to fame after their successful business that soared high and also their affiliation with the military, their involvement in so many industries but mostly tech gadgets and computers that they make just like X-Lee's subsidiary. And ooh, they also have a bodyguard agency that they had since but it just came into the public eye, that was all I got until this," Henry concluded pointing to his laptop.

"Woah, that's certainly weird and needs investigation," Tyler said as he was as curious like the rest of them.

"Well, I just received a warning to stop looking for what will bite us back and then my computer starting crashing, and then all blank." Henry asserted.

"But that isn't going to stop us from knowing more about them," Xander said not letting go of the chance. Seeing as Henry was getting ready to give up the search he said that firmly.

" Yeah, well, not at the expense of my computer, okay? We are almost there aren't we?"

They all stared hard at it and then it suddenly lit up, to it's normal window page.

" So now it's okay, righhhht?"Sam asked warily shifted away from the side.

"Yeah, I think so," Henry said as he tapped on its keys and worked properly.

"Wait a minute!! Did you say that you received a message and it said ' Stop looking for what will bite us , like 'us' as in you, me, Sam and Xander," Tyler asked looking alarmed and pointing at the laptop.

"That's right, is that what you saw," Xander asked too.

"Yeah, yeah, that's what I saw and it read 'us'..... this doesn't look good guys, not at all,'' Henry said looking up at them in alarm.

"Okaaaaaay, that's definitely creepy, someone is watching us, how? And now?" Sam exclaimed, looking up and around them

"We are definitely in for a ride, in Country A." Xander said looking out the window.
