Immaculate Spirit

Chapter 183

"Nathaniel!?" She said, not even believing the word that came out of her mouth.

She had hypothesised about who could have the power to take someone from the CIA and each time her mind did go to the Army, especially considering that the person who took her away is a Colonel . Never, even in her wildest dream, she could have imagine that. The one who had the power to outrank the CIA and take her away was the same person that she had befriend in Law school, the only one in fact.

"Oh good, you remember my name." He answers with his silly smile of his, bringing back a lot of souvenir from law school.

"Stop it! This is some serious matter!" She chastised him.

"Sir, do you want me to leave the room? You seem to need to talk alone." Scott asked, preparing to leave the office.

"Thank you Scott for being sensible about this but I believe you need to be here and ear what we are going to say." Nathaniel answers to Scott before turning back to NYung. "And I"m being serious. Do you have any idea what I needed to do to get you back?"

"I never asked for anything! You have no idea what you did and how it"s going to impact my life and my family"s life! I needed to enter the CIA to keep my family in the US and protected from the a.s.sa.s.sin that still want to harm them! Now that you took me away, there is no reason for them to uphold their part of the bargain! You just condemn my entire family for egoist reason!" She yell.

"That"s what they told you?" Nathaniel shake his head before sliding a piece of newspaper with a t.i.tle in Korean. "Your family is safe now NYung. Your uncle have been arrested a week ago, conspiracy to commit murder and complicity in the death of all the people who died in the attack against your family that night. He"s not going to get out any time soon."

Taking the piece of paper with trembling hands, she read the article in Korean. She knew that it was possible that it was her uncle behind all this but it still hurt to find out that the same man that was babysitting her when she was little tried to killed her for power.

"It doesn"t mean it"s over! The Dark Hand never relent after being a.s.signed a target, even if my uncle is behind bars, they will stop at nothing until they kill us!" She had read every piece of information on the Dark Hand that the CIA had on hand and memorize everything about them.

"The Dark Hand is all but obliterated right now, the last few of their organization have gone in hiding to avoid being arrested or killed. In fact your parents are not under protective custody anymore, that"s why I made the move to get you back. You deserve to be back with them and not brainwashed into a life of service. In fact, I found them a nice penthouse apartment two blocks away from here."

"You talked to my family?" She asked trouble, mixed feeling could be heard in her voice.


"To your father yes, they miss you very much. Your father asked me to help him get in touch with you even if I would have done it even if he did not ask."

"Thanks Nathaniel for everything you done but I need to go back to the CIA. I don"t know why they hide all of these information from me but I think it was to not disturb my training. I own them too much to just leave like that. Without the intervention of one of their team, my whole family would have died in that hotel, I would have died and maybe you too. "

Hearing that, Nathaniel eyes got wide for a second before exploding in laughter, surprising the both of them.

"Stop laughing! I"m serious!" She shout crossly.

"NYung, the CIA has only fifteen thousand employees, to cover the whole planet in term of infiltration and intelligence. Than you count the civilian job the CIA has like accountant, a.n.a.lyst and the top bra.s.s. Considering that, how likely is it that the CIA had a strike team ready near the Hotel in the US? Think about the fact the organisation did not kept tab on the Dark Hand before because they never leave Asia." Nathaniel said, looking at her.

Frowning, she start to think about it and it was indeed weird. The CIA was not omnipotent and couldn"t be everywhere at once. Moreover, they had no authority to act on US territory, just being there was unlawful and they would never recognize it, especially to someone like her. Unless they stood to gain something, like recruiting her she thought bitterly.

"Do you remember that day? Before the attack when we were walking outside of the campus?" He asked.

"Of course I remember. You had something to do and you leave and then you called me to start working on an a.s.signment that we just had." She smile a little at the memory.

"I did and the moment we arrive in front of your hotel, do you remember what I told you?" He asked seriously.

"Yes, you said that you thought you saw someone following us." She remember, knitting her eyebrows in thought.

"Which made you warn the head or you security to keep his eyes open in case of danger. After that, I was the one who warn you about the internet and cell network going down without any explanation. And the moment when the power died down, you were forced to leave and I was nowhere to be seen?" He said, trying to point her to the right direction, letting her come to her own conclusion.

"Yes, Afterward I was so happy that you had survived that I didn"t even think about what you said. These guys were professional killer, there"s no way that they would not have check under the bed and… and there was your bodyguard that came armed to the teeth to save our people in the lobby. We go out a lot the two of us and I never seen them before but on this night they were here. It was y... you, from the start, it was you who killed them. How did I miss that? You were in front of me the whole time." She realized her eyes seeing a new part of him.

"Very good." He nodded approvingly. "When I leave you at the exit of the campus it was to find out who those a.s.sa.s.sin were after, you or me. When I realized they were after you, I came back to keep you safe after calling the bodyguard of my grandfather to act as back up. After that, I just dropped hint to minimize the damage as I couldn"t tell you right away, you would never have believe me. Moreover, I also have a family I need to protect, I could not appear on the radar of an organization of a.s.sa.s.sin." He explain before taking a sip of his gla.s.s.

"After that, I made sure that the marshall were going to hide and protect you all. following that, I put bread crumbs on the road for the feds to know who it was and where to find them. Because of politic, the operation was rushed and handled badly and a fiasco happen. An operation was launch against the headquarter of the Dark Hand organisation situated in Deaguo, the twenty sixth of October . A joint operation with Korean black ops was put in place to deal with that threat and under the command of a very talented delta force Colonel, Scott McCornaig." Nathaniel said, directing a bitter smile in Scott direction.
