Meanwhile…..
It’s been three good days since Diana arrived at Delta City, and her battalion of over five hundred soldiers were just a call away. She decided to appear ordinary and now she didn’t want to anymore.
For the past three days, she had come here morning and night to Oliver’s tech cooperative and booking an appointment to meet with their CEO, Felicity: She was no longer working as a nurse. Five years ago, they said she rose to power from nowhere.
Now, Diana was coming to Oliver’s tech cooperative with a fleet of over a hundred military Hilux, all loaded with soldiers. Since, booking an appointment is not working. She has to cease power! She had tried Felicity’s number but it kept getting declined or forwarded or always busied; she probably blocked her number.
Felicity kept on purposely rejecting the appointment booked by Diana, since she returned. She knew instinctively she was back to Delta City with a sole purpose that is closely related to the Silver Ring, she had sold for half a billion dollar, five years ago.
She took the silver ring and she left a cloned faked version of the silver ring for Diana. It had been her ulterior motive and plan all through the years. She had selfish motives of helping Diana with recuperating from the accident she had, and also helping and keeping her company until she gave birth to triplets. She offered Diana a home. She assumed the precision of accuracy of a big sister or possible a real family, but all that was so that she could get hold of the silver ring and sell it, and perhaps establish her companies.
Now, she was a very wealthy woman. Stopped practicing medicine immediately she garnered wealth and now the most wealthiest CEO of the most reputable Oliver’s tech cooperative that deals on all kinds of Megatron’s and robots that could make life easier for all humans.
It was exactly 9 pm in this going to be cold night…. Felicity was in her office this night. She got held back due to a major success, the company encountered as of recent. Then, her personal secretary, burst into her office with a panic stricken face.
“Ma’am…. There are fleets of army Hilux cars approaching Oliver techs, they wouldn’t stop at the premises gate. Few minutes from now, they’d be here”… Her secretary, Wakins, a nerdy dude said hastily and pantingly.
“Why??????…. Soldiers? How is that possible? Who sent them?”, Felicity said angrily and then grabbed for her cellphone. Obviously placing a call over to the active commander of Delta City military. As a wealthy woman, she had good relationship with the Delta Army and politics so that she can curry monopoly and immunity in her business. Currently, something bad was going to ensue. Why would men from the military be coming to Oliver’s tech without her prior consent? What were they coming there for? Who sent them?Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Felicity’s mind got troubled and more restless when the first and second set of rings died down, without a response from the other end. Wakins who was with her was scared already, his hands clenched at his sides, his hair pasted to his forehead with sweat. Felicity then dialed again and after another two sets of ring, the acting commander finally picked up..
“Hello… General!”, She said, “There are military men in their trucks and Hilux plying at high speed to Oliver’s tech.. who sent them? Why?” She immediately explained after the voice at the other end responded with, “Hello!”.
On a norm, when about a battalion of soldiers are coming to one place, it’s not for peace negotiation, it’s probably for “VAWULENCE!”.
“It’s a direct order from the president general!, I can’t disobey him!”, With that said, Delta city active commander ended the call abruptly.
“Hello…. hell… he…. Hello… – call ended.. damn!”, Diana groaning in anger hit her hand on the desk forcefully causing a loud thud.
“The president general was not someone to joke with. When he is set out to do something, he does it. He is ruthless and cold and violent powerful man. No one wants to get into his trouble! But this one, he gave the order. I know all is not well!”
“Com’on think think think…”, She started to murmur as she paced the spacious room back and forth.
“What ma’am? Please dial again. I don’t want to get into any soldiers net!”, Wakins blurted truthfully with his legs already jelly.
“We face them! …, Follow me!”, Felicity responded then commanded. She had to know why they were coming to her company by this time.
Felicity and Wakins reached the service elevator and with press on a button in the wall, the elevator lurched into action with a vibrating groan that Wakins’ felt all through the bones in his feet.
The elevator came to a hissing stop, and they were now in the large spacious companies entryway, only to behold the sight of armed officers with different arsenals in their possession, behind them are hiluxs just outside the companies entrance.
The companies security were all made to lie down on the floor. They were like ants to the military indeed.
Among the fleets of the Hilux parked outside is a military G-Wagon car in the centre. All it’s window were tinted black and dark and definitely deterred Felicity’s effort of peaking in. Terrified, she still gathered the guts and stepped outside. Military officers surrounding her already. By this time, Wakins’ was lying on the floor, shaking with utter fear just like any other employees.
Diana, inside the Military G-Wagon shrugged off her jacket, threw it over the back and then she wore her military face cap and attached her badge, indicating her rank and then the door opened from the outside. An officer was the one who opened it.
She then stepped down from car, Felicity looking utterly confused as she couldn’t yet deduce who it’s that hide under the face cap. She exuded authority and power with the way the officers treated her and it’s best wise she treats her with all the respect she could harness.
As Diana approached Felicity standing rooted to a particular spot and military officers escorting Diana. Felicity felt an uneasy familiarity with this approaching figure. She thought he would definitely be a male soldier but turns out she is a female soldier. And seeing her badge, Felicity’s heart skipped. A sergeant general? But the company did nothing to trouble the military!
Once, Diana was face to face with Felicity . Both almost at same height. Diana then removed her face cap and they both locked gaze for a moment.
“Diana?! I should have known!..” Felicity thought in extreme surprise.
“Surprised? Don’t be… I’m only here to talk to you. I have been coming here for the past three days and, continually I don’t get allowed to see you. Probably because I appeared ordinary and now that I’m what I’m, it forced you out. Power is power indeed!”, Diana quickly stated with a smile.
For a moment Felicity didn’t say anything. “Hello, don’t blank out already. I missed you! Now let’s go in!” Diana added.
