Chapter 7 Secondary protocol

Jack's POV

Deciding that enough time had passed, I opened my eyes and glanced around. Getting up I looked around before exiting out of one of the doors.

"Hello, this is Papa Bear, my birthday has been canceled." I whispered into my earpiece. It was a code that translated to 'Hello, this is Jack Bristow, my plans have been changed.'

" Ok, we'll cancel the invitation." someone answered from the other end. Which translated into, "Ok, we'll inform the others."

I shifted around my shirt to reveal my bulletproof vest as I pulled out the bullet. Quickly hiding it once again, I continued to make my way around the building.

Sydney's POV

My eyes grew wide as I saw the kids. They looked scared, cold, confused and hungry. I started unloading the kids, what surprised me where that they ranged from babies to teenagers.

"I'm not here to hurt you." I wished, tears welling up in my eyes as I wondered what was going to happen to the kids if I did not get them out. "You'll be ok, I promise."

Vaughn's POV

"Vaughn here, you found a match? Lauren's, no it can't be. Check it again, maybe someone's framing her." I told them.

"Agent Vaughn, please calm down, we ran the tests multiple times, the results are correct. I'm sorry." the man told me.

"Calm down? You're accusing my wife of-" I started yelled.

"Agent Vaughn, calm down!" the man yelled from the other end of the phone.

"I am, calm!" I yelled, slamming down the phone.

Glory's POV

I helped Sydney unload the children with almost no hassle from them. They seemed to act as if they had been trained to do as they were told or at least beaten into that mode.

"Ok, I need you guys to do me a favor. We're gonna save your lives, but we need your help, ok? We need you to search these boxes for a suitcase. If you find any, please bring them to us, ok? It is necessary for our survival." I told them before getting jabbed in the ribs from Sydney.

"Oh, wat'd I say?" I complained.

"At least use a euphemism." she whispered.

Lauren's POV

I drove 2 cars behind them truck and kept an eye out for suspicious activity. Popping in a Brittany Spears CD, I kept on hand on the steering wheel. I turned up the volume as the song, "Every time" sounded through the speakers.

Irina's POV

"What's going on back there?" I asked getting up off the seat.

"Change of plans." Sydney called back.

I headed towards the back of the truck to find myself surrounded by children.

"What are they doing here?" I asked, noting their ripped and dirtied clothes.

"We found them, they were in the boxes." Glory told me, searching a box.

"Found it, Marshall, talk to me." Sydney spoke through her com link, walking towards the back of the truck, describing it to him.

After a few minutes Sydney suddenly yelled, "Turn left!"

Sark veered the truck to her command and asked what the hell was going on.

"The codes are codes to a virus." Sydney explained.

Lauren's POV

The song "Every time" had finished and now another song was playing when my cell phone rang.

"Lauren, something's seriously wrong. I wanna know, who the fuck screwed us up, those codes aren't the codes for the virus, those are the codes to our system." Izzabell yelled.

"is that a bad thing?" I asked.

"Yes, I don't trust our informant that much and I defiantly don't trust new recruits with that much information, you must at whatever cost, terminate the truck and the people inside of it!" she demanded.

"but, what about the package inside of it? We'll be losing a lot of money." I told Izzabell.

"I don't care, just d it damn it!" Izzabell screamed hanging up the phone.

I pressed down on the gas as I swerved in and out of lanes to catch up with the truck.

Sark's POV

"We've got a tailgater." I informed everyone. "I say, we drop off the children with one of you guys and then we deal with this person."

I slowed down by a 7 eleven to let off Irina and the kids, or actually they jumped off. I actually stopped the truck inside some warehouse. I jumped out of the truck and helped Sydney and Glory get out.

Sydney still held the device in her hand as she got out.

It didn't take too long for Lauren to pull up in her black Altima. She got out of the car, with her gun pointed towards Sydney, before aiming it to me, and then finally Glory.

"Where's Irina? Where's the package? Get down on the ground! Do what I say damn it!" Lauren yelled.

"Easy, one question at a time, your majesty." Sydney cried mockingly.

"I wouldn't be attempting to make jokes seeing as how there actually is a weapon in that truck." Lauren laughed.

Sydney stared at the object in question and ripped off it's top layer. Underneath it, she realized what Lauren was getting at. There was a timer on it clicking off how long that had to defuse it, and there was only 20 seconds left.

"Secondary protocol, you understand." Lauren sneered.
