Hi Guys, Elindithas Darksbane here with chapter 21 of The Rise of OCAWD. In the last chapter, Eddie and a swat team stormed the destroyed M.I.9 building. They saved Mike but Eddie was wounded. Also, Eddie was recruited into the operation to stop Colonel Briot and his onto the story...

Eddie woke up on the sofa, Keri was still asleep leaning onto his chest. He stroked her hair slightly as he slowly slid out from under hair. He gently moved her head to a pillow and left the room. He got ready and got dressed for the day. Suddenly, his phone rang and he looked at the caller I.D: Logan. He accepted the call and put the phone to his ear.

"Hey Logan!" he said,

"Good morning Eddie." Logan replied, "Could you get over to our HQ?"

"Sure, I'll be their in 10 minutes!" Eddie answered walking downstairs where Keri was waiting.

"Who was that?" she asked.

"That was Logan, he wants me to get over to HQ, I'll be back in a few hours!" he replied kissing her softly.

"Good luck Eddie, I hope you find where the OCAWD leaders are hiding!" she exclaimed smiling as he left the door.

HQ

The lift doors opened and Eddie walked out, the 3 commanders were sat at their desks. Also, a lady was typing on a computer in the corner.

"Good Morning Martyn!" Eddie called shaking hands with his colleague.

"Morning Eddie, Logan told us you were coming, how's Keri, Dan, Zoe, Tom and Jasmine?"

"They're good thanks, how is the team?"

"Well, Logan, Wayne and I you met yesterday, but there is also, Bethany and Brian, who are techies. They survey cameras and contact us with information about the enemy." Martyn explained. Suddenly, a german shepherd bounded in almost knocking Martyn over. "And this here is Nixon."

"Logan!" Bethany called from her desk.

"What's up Beth?" Logan replied turning her computer screen to see what was going on. "Eddie, you need to see this!"

Eddie ran up to them and took a look at the screen, his eyes widened at what he saw. An OCAWD team had broken into the M.I.9 vaults and the artefact that the M. team had recovered was gone! "That artefact needs to be get back!" Eddie said walking towards the elevator and pulling out his phone.

"Keri?" he said

"Eddie, what is going on?" Keri asked

"OCAWD have taken the artefact and we need to retrieve it!" he spoke to her. "Meet me at the M.I.9 vaults in 10 minutes, bring the others."

Logan,Eddie, Wayne and Logan got out of the janitors closet and ran down the corridors towards the exit. Eddie grabbed his Ferrari keys and opened it. The four entered the car and Eddie drove off towards the direction of the M.I.9.

M.I.9 Vaults

Eddie pulled up at the M.I.9 vaults to see smoke pouring out the huge hole in the wall.

"Well, I think we know how they got in!" Logan said moving to inspect the scene.

Suddenly, Eddie felt a hand slip into his and he turned to see Keri, Dan, Zoe, Tom and Jasmine standing there.

"What are you going to do?" Keri asked looking at him.

"I need you and Tom to wait here and keep us filled in on anything that happens out here. Me, Dan, Jasmine and Zoe will take separate routes to find where they have taken the artefact." Eddie told her moving with the others towards the hole. "Logan! Are we going in?"

"Yes we are, Nixon has been given the scent and will lead us to the OCAWD soldiers!" He explained passing out balaclavas. "It won't be long until the press turn up and start filming."

Nixon was the first to enter sniffing the floor and the walls. Crouching, Eddie entered coughing at the smoke lingering around.

"It's clear!" he called and Logan entered behind him followed by Dan, Zoe and Jasmine. Suddenly, Nixon lifted his head up and ran down the corridor past the vaults; the agents took off behind him trying to catch up. Logan grabbed Nixon as they turned a corner, three OCAWD agents were stood at a table fiddling with a device of some sort.

"Eddie, use these." Logan whispered passing a small dart to Eddie followed by a launcher. Eddie aimed one at what looked like the leader and fired. He fell to the floor unconscious. The othr two turned holding a metal object which they threw in the direction of the agents.

"Bomb!" Logan shouted pulling the tennagers back. There was a deafening bang and the ceiling fell in front of them.

Outside

There was a deafening bang and the onlookers gasped as the building crumbled slightly.

"No!" shouted Keri moving towards the vaults. Frank stopped her, pulling her back.

"Keri, we can't let pregnant agents into the field!" he told her, "It's protocol!"

"I don't fucking care!" she shouted and ran in to find the agents.

The Vaults

Eddie opened his eyes slightly to see Logan standing next to him. He grabbed his hand and helped him up. He looked over and saw Dan and Zoe laying next to each other.

"Where's Jasmine?" he asked.

"I sent her back to get help, if I am correct, Dan and Zoe have both broken some of their ribs. It is impossible without x-rays to tell how many."

"Eddie!" Keri exclaimed moving to him. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, it's Dan and Zoe we need to worry about. Logan believes that Dan and Zoe have suffered severe injuries to their ribs." he explained.

Soon, jasmine returned accompanied by some paramedics.

"What happened to the two OCAWD agents?" Keri asked.

"I got a report that they have got away, to a helicopter near hear. The last update was that they are going towards Russia." Logan told them.

"Wait, why Russia?" Eddie asked.

"They don't have the best relations with the EU so maybe, OCAWD believes they can get an Alliance with them." Logan suggested.

"We'll need to take them to hospital." the paramedic announced taking them out on a stretcher. Eddie left with Keri and headed back to the house with her. HE will need to do more research on OCAWD and Russia.
