Chapter 645 - The Secret Passage (1/2)
The car stopped in the middle of the dark forest. Then the driver stepped out of the car followed by General Grady.
Senator Rizza tried to open the door on her side but it was still locked. She knocked on the door to catch the attention of the driver that is leaning on the car talking to his phone.
She looked around and General Grady is nowhere to be found. She started to get panic. She clasped her chest as if trying to even her heartbeat that is quickening.
When General Grady told her that they are entering the headquarters of the Robin Hood Society, confusion was her first reaction. When she asked him if he is a member of the Robin Hood Society, his answer made her more confused.
Everything started to become blurry and in slow motion. For a moment she thought she saw light coming from a loghouse but in a blink of an eye it disappeared so she thought she was just hallucinating and the next thing she knew, the car already stopped in the middle of a creepy dark forest.
”Hey! Let me out!” She screamed at the top of her lungs as if no one could hear her when in fact, there is a man standing just outside the car.
Although she knew that the driver cannot hear her, she saw the man walked to her side and opened the door.
In a state of panic, as soon as the door opens, she dashes out of the car and tried to escape but the man's reflex was quicker than her feet.
The man grabbed her by the wrist and she stumbled back. Her back hit the door of the car and she gasped in pain.
”You'll only get hurt if you try to escape. And if you did escape, I doubt if you'll ever get out of this forest.” The driver said then looked around the dark and creepy forest.
Senator Rizza glared at the driver but she cannot see his face clearly because it is too dark. She straightened her body and asked. ”Where is General Grady?”
”I'm here.” She heard a man spoke but sense that something has changed in his voice. She looked around and found the silhouette of the man that she assumed to be General Grady based on his body physique.
He was gone in a blink of an eye then just came out of nowhere. She wondered where did this old man come because when she looked around, she could see nothing but darkness and silhouette of the creepy trees that seem to be moving and playing with her imagination.
”This way, Senator Rizza.”
