In gears of 'pacifism' : Lightè-zero

Chapter 8 - A responsibility (Special chapter)

Grace – And then you got used to it making you an introvert?

Me – Kind of......yeah. Yes. Even in the army, I didn't used to talk much in casual.....and it got a effect when one of guy in our squad tried to mess with me......I was keeping my patience until I knocked him down in a single punch on the face. And from then, everyone was kind of avoiding me. So....i am not sure how good my social skills really were. Just minding my own works and going ahead.

Grace – How about I say that you were once lied in a misinformation and that one small issue continued ahead affecting you?

Me – Sorry?

Grace – If I say that you were lied about your rough voice which is actually normal. Yet you kept on keeping the caution without a necessity and its consequences were your issues with socialization.

Me – Kind of yes. Well, I am not sure what I could do knowing this.

Grace – That's a point too. Anyways, you choose the dinner! I'll be paying this time.

Me – Alright. Well then....

Same moment my phone was vibrating. I had kept it on silent....soon enough as I just saw the alert notification from the department. There was only one line I had for Grace.....

Me – I have to go. Truly sorry for today, but I have to go now.

Grace – What happened? Is there any kind of emergency?

Me – Calling up. Duty's call. Really sorry for today. I have to go now.

Grace – Alright just take......

Before Grace completed her words, I was already out from my seat near the door. An alert dispatch from Elite Police Department. There's some kind of emergency here for this alert. Rushing to my car, calling Reece who had received the same alert. I just told her to be ready to move out as now we had to reach the department office fast now. To have an emergency just few hours after a marriage, sure life's real hectic. Meanwhile I was driving I was receiving calls from 1st Lieutenant Eliana. I am not sure how much of a good conduct is to pick up a highly important phone call when you are driving. No options.....i have to break the rules.

1st Lieutenant Eliana – Jason, we need you and Reece here right now. Our intels have detected a dispatch. You got to be quick here, you copy?

Me – On my way. Driving at now. Any briefing available?

1st Lieutenant Eliana – GET HERE RIGHT NOW! THIS IS THE BRIEFING!

I was trying to cut the call until the phone fell down while I was driving. And I kind of felt that sound was going to be expensive....screen got few cracks and I feel so. Sure to feel so. Damn...this is going to be a problem now until I get the screen repaired.

Reaching up the point, picking up Reece as she was here in worries about this new briefing. We both were going all the way back to the department building as we saw everyone was ready in gears....even the newly married couple. One point sure to respect to them that even after their marriage just few hours ago they are still here for service. Well, what's the briefing though?

1st Lieutenant Eliana – Intels squads have brought us a threatening signal. Korean Mafia has entered into this conflict now, making it a critical point for expectations.

Lt. Colonel Knity – Clear to the briefing. My intel squad had captured variant signals of a high-ground damage planned in this state, and for a much daring point.....right into this city. A Chinese Mafia assisted with the Korean Mafia "Jeunguon" couldn't bring a more dangerous collaboration in reigns of terror. And this time it's a revenge raid as we suspect. Similar intelligences were recorded within other states by Intel squads of Lightè-zero Department. We need to brace ourselves for the hit.
