Chapter 325: Its a trap

"Keep following him. I am sure he is heading back to the base" Tristan instructed and Ace quickly followed his orders. He made sure Gabriel wouldn’t find anything suspicious and he maintained a distance.

"I never thought Gabriel would turn out to be Alphonse’s son. But, how did you find this?" Noah mumbled in disbelief sitting in the backseat along with Karl. He was still trying to grasp the detail they found out about their best friend.

"I did a background check on his mother’s family background and came to find out about her being Alphonse’s mistress. It didn’t take me long o connect all the dots"

Tristan leaned his back on the passenger seat and closed his eyes. His mind was in a mess when he found out Gabriel’s identity and what turned out to be the worst was him being the one behind Dante’s abduction.

He had been searching for him everywhere, but when he couldn’t find him, Tristan used another way. He looked for his mother whose name he attached to his name in every document he submitted to the faculty and the details he found turned shook his whole self.

"What should we do now? Are we going to fight against him?" Karl asked. He couldn’t bring himself to fight against the boy who was their closest friend.

"I don’t know, but if he tries to go against us then we need to defend ourselves" they heard Tristan and agreed with him.

Tristan never wanted to hurt him but if they had to get Dante out they had to fight against their enemies.

They kept following the car until Gabriel took a turn that lead them to the shipyard.

At first, they didn’t understand why he would bring them this way, but when they carefully looked around, they found it was one of the places where Alphonse exported all the illegal weapons overseas.

"Stop here, we can’t follow him anymore," Tristan said and Ace quickly put on the brakes stopping the car right away.

This hideout wasn’t like the previous one. He had his men everywhere and it wouldn’t be easy for them to sneak in as they did earlier.

"This place is vast Tristan. I don’t think we will be able to get in" Karl eyed outside the windows.

They were just the four of them and here Alphonse had a huge army guiding his empire. It wouldn’t be easy for them to fight against so many people alone.

"What should we do know? Grandpa is still inside. We can’t delay for so long. What if Alphonse tries to harm him" Noah was bombarded with fearful thoughts that kept disturbing him.

Two hours had passed since Dante’s abduction and they had no clue how he was been kept. Every passing second was like a reminder for them to quicken their action. The longer they delayed, the more the chances of Dante being okay slimmer.

They had to come up with a solid plan to get Dante out of this place without getting caught and the rest can be handled by the cops.

"Noah, do you still have the software you were working on for the final year’s project," Tristan asked eyeing Noah through the rare view mirror.

"Yes I do" he answered.

"Good, now quickly install it on our device," he said passing his cell phone and then glanced at Ace meaningfully.

"We both will enter the place and you will guide us in using your application" Tristan tuck his head and watch Noah bob his head.

"And you Karl, inform officer Jacob to send his team here in the Peak shipping yard" Tristan went on discussing a few more things until Noah installed the software in their cellphone before the two stepped out of the car.

Tristan didn’t want to make any mistakes since they didn’t have a backup yet. Until the police team arrives they had to be cautious about their every step.

Noah quickly login to the application and the two devices that had the same software opened. He could locate Tristan and Ace as they stood in the same spot. They were waiting for his orders since the entire blueprint of the Peak shipping yard was monitored by Noah along with the people available at every spot.

An animated human figure along with their clothes and the weapon they carried could also be seen on the screen.

Noah searched every corner of the yard, and he was finally able to locate the place Dante was held captive.

"I found grandpa but-" he spoke on the earphones that were connected to both Ace and Tristan. Listening to the hesitation in his voice Tristan asked," But what Noah? Is he okay?"

"He is but security around is tight" Noah answered biting his lower lip. He feared for them and wanted them to be cautious about their surrounding.

Ace had already injured himself and Tristan, he was the one reckless who wouldn’t stop at anything until he gets what he wants.

Both Tristan and Ace heaved out a sigh of relief. They were content that Dante was still doing fine but that didn’t mean he would be good the entire time.

"Don’t worry about that just lead us to where he is the rest we will handle" Tristan assured.

"Okay"

Meanwhile, Alphonse breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Gabriel returning to the base without causing any suspicious activity. He wanted to question him for his reckless move but the boy simply ignored him and walked to his room.

Sitting on the couch, Alphonse kept thinking about how no one has tried to contact him to release Dante. He remembered Max saying that Ace had seen them taking Dante away and there was no way he couldn’t recognize them.

They had purposely kept their identity open because they wanted to get Tristan here. He was quite impressed with how Tristan efficiently carry his plan. If not for his skills, they wouldn’t have ended up getting trapped in their plan.

Alphonse looked at the surveillance screen ahead. He was wondering why wasn’t there any sneaky act being carried yet.

He by now was sure, the news about Dante’s abduction must have reached Tristan’s ear, yet he wasn’t here to negotiate.

"Boss you have to see this" Max barged into the room and showed Alphonse a footage.

"So he is here" an evil smirk appeared on Alphonse’s face when he saw Tristan stepping out of the car outside the yard.

"He had been following young master" Max further stated catching Alphonse’s attention on him.

"So he found out that Gabriel is my son," he said with a scoff.

Cracking his fingers Alphonse stood up and smirked," Let’s welcome them"

*****

Tristan and Ace managed to get into the base with Noah’s help. They used a secret way without many guards patrolling around while Noah kept them updated about the threats.

There weren’t any surveillance cameras installed where they currently stood, so it was easy for them to enter without any hurdle as for now.

It had been a while since they stepped into Alphonse’s territory, yet they didn’t stumble with any guard. How is that possible? Tristan thought.

Stopping midway, Tristan asked," Noah don’t you find something strange? How can it be possible that we didn’t stumble with any guards here?

Noah who had his eyes fixed on the screen held the mick of his earphone and frowned," You are right. I don’t see any security getting your way. How is this possible?"

Now that he saw carefully, Noah too agreed to Tristan’s doubt. Even if the place was a secret passageway still the place would be guarded, knowing the high chances of intruders.

Tristan turned at Ace. The man also seems to agree with him. Clenching his jaw, Tristan cursed mentally.

’What if it’s a trap’ he thought.

Thinking for a minute he then asked," Noah check the place where Grandpa is kept and inform me about the security"

"Okay" agreeing Noah quickly checked the surrounding Dante’s location and to his surprise, the guards protecting the place declined to two.

"It’s weird. Earlier the place was heavily secured but now there are only two guards.

"Damn, it’s a trap. Our movements are monitored" Tristan concluded after assuming everything.

"But how, the secret passage doesn’t have a camera installed" Noah stated. He had checked everything and there wasn’t any surveillance presence.

"Because they know there is only one way to get in here if not the main entrance and just like every intruder we used the secret way" Tristan was now mentally scolding himself. He should have thought about this before getting in.

"What should we do now?" he heard Ace whisper from behind and for a second he thought everything was sliding down his palm.

"We only have one choice and that is to continue our plan. We need to face them until the cops arrive" they heard Tristan say.

"They are on their way" Karl who was sitting next to Noah assure.

"And so is our team" he further declared.
