Chapter 1 Damien's Day
Damien’s POV
Twenty one hours ago I was still lying in my bed in New Jersey United States of America. After I got an overseas call from my father and Jack I flew in Philippines without taking any blink of hesitation. General Peyton wanted me to be part of vanishing Al Maktub terrorist. My father has been working in this case long time ago. He wanted me to be the one to handle it but the SEAL has always thrown me away and besides I always avoiding working with My dad. Being under the command of my very own father is always an expectation of bringing the bacon home. But this time I like it or not I will work with him chasing Al maktub to fulfill my goal of building an Institution or organization for secret military operation across the globe. And that is the SENTRIES. My father’s team code name during the operation on stopping the Al Maktub terrorist from rising. I wanted to revive it. My mission is to accomplish every impossible mission in an unidentified moves. Only I needs is the approval of the United States President and the Armed Forces of the Unites States chief of staff. Approval of the President of the republic of the Philippines and Armed Forces of the Philippines chief of staff also as Our second base country. I got all the approval in how many years of proving them I was worth to revive it even General Gabio who was a former member of Quadro Sentries signed my proposal, since my uncle Bob and uncle James is dead only General Peyton signature is what I only need to pursue my goal as he is the higher rank element among the four member. But I need to prove him a lot to get his golden signature and that is working with him.
Another reason why I found himself in the land of the pearl of the orient as they called is the death of my brother in arms Mason Perkins. Though me and Mason was not close unlike Jack, I still owe him a goodbye. Perkins has been my brother in arms as the man serves in US military and save our lives for so many times even though it was just dissimulation, his concealment on his true intention in getting into US military has done some good things specially saving our ass from getting killed in Afghanistan and other pernicious Muslim countries also we have diminish some of the terrorist cell as part of Mason’s pretentions on his true intention. My father rescued Mason in a battle in Tunisia and brought to US. He was adopted by Perkins couple which has been my mom’s relatives as they don’t have their own children. After two years Mason’s custody fell into my parents as his adopted parents died. As eldest I treated him like my own brother like I do to Jack after my father adopted him too. But my brother Darielle, has never been good to him. Though Darielle was a good son and good brother to me and Jack, He has been a bad ass to Mason. No hour of the day my brother never makes Mason’s life as hell. And now I understands my brother’s demeanor towards Mason. I just knew twenty one hour ago that Mason was Al Maktub terrorist leader Yarik Usloon Amraah biological son intently abandoned to battle field to get rescued by US soldier for a purpose and that is to raise in US so he get easily in US forces as a spy. And mason knows his purpose all through the years.
I looked at my watch it was exactly 0830h hours and the conference my Dad conduct will commence at 0900h hours I still have time. I show my Identification Card to the military MP designate in the gate as I approach in Panay Military base gate one. After seeing my ID the two soldiers opened the gate like they were expecting me to come while the others remain as attentive watchers. Well what can I say about my Dad? He is always as alert as an alarm clock. I slowed down my car as I was looking for a good parking when my phone rang. I will going to cut one of my finger if it wasn’t my father calling. “COMGEN” it says in the screen as I checked my phone. It was his twenty fifth times calling me since the plane landed on the Philippine Archipelago an hour ago.
“Finally got you Captain,” father exclaimed as I take his call.
“Easy Dad, just gonna park my car and be right in your front” I shook my head thinking my father’s eyebrow might touches each other of annoyance thinking I might be late.
“The conference will commence at 0900 hours and you only have twenty eight minutes left captain” he said.
“I missed you too Daddy” I just said and turned off my phone. For sure General Peyton will going to cut my limb for answering him foolishly. I slowly back my car to park properly when I suddenly heard a crash from my back sign of collision.
“What the Fuck!!!” I extremely exclaimed and get out of his red velvet Chevrolet Equinox. My father’s newly bought car.
A woman wearing a navy blue pants and bush coat went down from metallic gray toyota vios. She was Wearing a Pershing cap with PNP badge so I easily determined she was a police woman. And base on the color of the lanyard she was wearing I knew she was belongs to investigation field unit and, the insignia in her coat shouts her rank as Senior Inspector. I whistled in my mind of amazement. That rank wasn’t easy to get for a woman. She’s equivalent to my military rank And she’s so fucking hot and I don’t understand why I felt something alive inside me.
“I’m sorry sir but you should have looked at your back first before you move your car, give me your license” she lay her hand open in my front waiting for me to hand her my license.
“What?” I exclaimed out of frustration. Of course I knew what does this means, but what the heck! It wasn’t me who bump her car. It was her who bump mine.
“Are you going to hand me your license sir or I should have to bring you to jail?” her eyebrows touches each other but she still look adorable.
“Look Ma’am I’m in a hurry and____” I hadn’t finish my words when she took my chance to speak.
“I am in hurry too mister because I have a meeting to catch up, so give me your license and were done” her eyebrows now raising up and I find her hot that way. I left no choice but to bring my ID license out and hand to her. After taking the License she took the call she had and when the woman get back to me she handed me a piece of paper with citation of blocking the drive way, failure to give way to police vehicle and imprudence driving. I felt all my blood boils as I read my violations.
“Wait a minute Miss Officer first of all I didn’t block the drive way, I only fix my car parking when all of a sudden you came and bump to my car, second you’re not driving a police vehicle it’s a private car and third it was you who bump into my car” I said but the police officer seems heard nothing and continue walking towards her car.
“Redeem your license at Panay Regional Police Station at Thirteen hundred hours to sixteen hundred hours mister” she said and drove her car away.
“Fucking Shit!” I scorned furiously. I was a drag racer but I never violated any traffic rules. I was so fucked up!
