Chapter 118

The group got back into the van and Lenny’s SUV and drove over to the entrance of the medical center.

As soon as they got out of the car, Rayne felt that something was wrong.

The entrance to the medical center showed many signs of looting, with loose bandages and scattered meds on the concrete floor.

"I feel like they were definitely here," she said while looking around.

The rest of the group walked over, feeling the same.

"Okay, let’s go inside," said Kia with a serious expression. Seeing that this was an emergency mission, something must have happened. It was better to proceed with caution.

The group carefully made their way inside, looking out for any lurking danger. Percy was so scared that he decided to slip away and hide in a nearby room.

He quietly tiptoed to the back of the group and opened the door closest to him, deciding to hide there until further notice.

He did his best to quietly open the door and stepped inside. The second he went to close the door behind him, he felt something strike him on the head, and his vision went black.

Rayne and Julian quickly turned around when they heard the noise from the strike. The rest of the group turned around to follow them.

Leading the way, Julian peered into the room and saw a man standing behind the unconscious Percy.

"Reginald?" Julian asked in a surprised voice.

Rayne’s eyes widened when she heard Julian’s voice, and she walked over.

Sure enough, the man standing in front of her was Ella’s father!

"Mr. Soto! What are you doing here?" she asked in a surprised voice.

Reginald was surprised to see the famous CEO of REN Corporation, who had been reported dead months ago, standing in front of him.

He had only just recently regained consciousness and found himself on the floor of a small supply closet. Just as he was about to exit the room, he heard the sound of cars pulling up to the building and decided to stay hidden in case it was an enemy.

Unfortunately for Percy, when Reginald heard the knob to the door of his room open, he thought it was the traitor returning to finish him. He quickly found a small wooden plank and got into position to strike whoever entered.

"Mr. Barclay? Is that really you?" Reginald asked in astonishment.

Julian quickly walked over. "Yes, but please don’t announce it. I’m supposed to be dead," he whispered.

Reginald wasn’t sure why, but he quickly agreed. "Of course, I understand," he nodded, then turned to face Rayne. "Miss Weston, is that you?"

Rayne walked over and smiled. "I’m so happy to see you! Is Ella here? I’ve missed her so much!" Just as the words left her mouth, she noticed the dried blood in his hair.

"Mr. Soto! What happened? You’re injured!" she gasped.

Reginald brought his hand to the injury on the back of his head, feeling the tenderness around the wound.

"Long story short, I came here on a scavenging mission, but once the van got filled with goods, the leader of our group knocked me out and dragged me here. I only just regained consciousness when you guys arrived. I’m not sure about the rest of the group," he explained.

Kia walked over just in time to hear his explanation. "You’re saying that your group leader knocked you out and took off with the van and all of the supplies inside?"

Reginald nodded at the burly woman. "Yes, that’s as much as I know."

Julian turned to face Kia. "I know this man, and I trust his word. He wouldn’t lie about this."

Kia looked at Julian, then sighed. "Very well, I trust you. I’ll have to report this to base. Give me a minute. The rest of you, search the rooms and see if we can find anyone else from the team."

Reginald looked at the unconscious Percy on the floor. "I’m sorry I knocked him out. I’ll apologize to him later."

"Don’t sweat it. I’ve wanted to do the same to him for a while now," said Kia before she walked outside to radio the base.

Rayne walked over to assess Reginald’s injury, while Kenzo, Michael, and Lenny walked around the medical center to look for the others.

"My wife and Ella must be really worried," Reginald sighed, letting Rayne bandage the wound on his head. "I’m not sure I have it in me to go on another base mission after what happened yesterday."

She was finally close to being reunited with her best friend and wished to stay close to the Soto family in the future.

Julian nodded. "Yes, we will go out on supply missions together in the future. I have a few weapons with me, so we can protect ourselves."

Reginald smiled, happy to have met familiar faces.

"Guys! I found the rest of the team! I think one of them is heavily injured!" yelled Lenny from the hallway.

Kia had just returned from giving an update to the base and rushed over to where Lenny was standing.

Inside a small examination room, there were three people unconscious on the ground. One of them looked heavily injured, as though he had gotten into a knife fight. He had many open wounds all over his body, some still bleeding.

"Quick, we need to bandage him and bring him back. Everyone, help me carry the others to the van," ordered Kia. Part of her guard training included basic first aid, so when Rayne handed her a roll of bandages from her backpack, Kia quickly got to work.

While the two ladies were busy doing their best to save the man, the others carefully carried the other unconscious team members to the van.

As Ella finally pulled up to the medical center, what greeted her was the sight of Kenzo and Michael carrying an unconscious man into a van.

"Who are you people? What are you doing with those men?!" she shouted from inside her car.

Kenzo looked over to see a petite woman with black hair glaring at them. He quickly realized that what they were doing could be seen as suspicious and quickly answered, "We were sent by the base to look for a missing team. We found them here unconscious. One of them is badly hurt, so we’re trying to get them back to base quickly."
