Wednesday was the first of quite days. Matthew had got his confidence back and come to terms with the fact that Angel and his unborn child were dead. Matthew was always number one in his field. Always completed his jobs and his men looked up to him. He prided himself on never loosing a man. He had had a great lost, but now he had come to terms with it. He was coming back strong. Stronger than before. He was honing his skills and studying how to acquire new ones. Before he was the best but now he wanted to be the best of the best. He talked to his team about plans and what was needed when the time is right. He wanted to do everything correctly. He never lost men and he didn’t want to start, so everything had to be perfect. He talked to several agencies from the CIA, RAW, ISI, MI6 and others. They all wanted ICE gone but when anyone tried they just lost men. Matthew told them he would get back to them at a later date on what they would pay to have the job done. Since he was going to do it his men should get paid.
No one had taken the bait yet. He was still very hopeful in finding the spy in their group. He wanted the person who bugged his Mom’s room and phone. He said patience. Greed will make them show themselves. Tomorrow the sat dish with arrive and it will make a lot of difference in communication and security. Gary and Joey were carefully watching the monitors. They would catch the person when they showed. Matthew was thinking very clearly now and had become very focused. He started to develop a schedule with one hour a day for advance self defense weapons, one hour hand combat training, one hour on himself in emotional intelligence and mental sharpness, time on diet, exercise and stress relievers. He had to have a clear mind. Everything had to be done quickly, smoothly and with clear thinking.
Chloe was down stairs checking things out. She went in a room that Matthew was using. She was warned not to go in his room but curiosity got the best of her. She was looking a everything when Matthew walked in. She turn to look at him when her elbow caught a small jar on the table knocking it off. Matthew flew across the room ending on one knee. His hand came between the jar and the floor just before the jar hit the floor. He never took his eyes off of Chloe. With the jar in the palm of his hand he rose to his feet glaring, said to Chloe, be careful I have things here for a reason. Looking at Matthew, the jar in his hand and the table of items in disbelief she started moving to the door. She was thinking she had never seen any thing like what Matthew just did. He did it in a blink of an eye and didn’t think anything of it. She was just starting to see his abilities. Chloe said, I am sorry it will not happen again. She left the room and returned to her computer area. She told Brack you will not believe what just happened.
Today is Thursday. Matthew woke up on the couch at 4am. Took clothes and hit the showers. When he came back he was very well groomed. He had a new shirt and slacks on. He looked really good. He sat on his labtop until one of the guards told him the sat was here. He went out and got in the helicopter with the other men. They noticed how good he looked. The helicopter flew him to the other side of the fence between fences where truck was sitting. He got out and talked to the two truck drivers and signed the paper work. His men where busy securing straps on it to move it to the roof of security. When he finish the paper work he thanked the truck drivers and got back in the helicopter. All the men got back in but one. He was on the truck. As the helicopter flew over the sat the man on the truck put the hooks on the helicopter and waited to go. He rode the sat to the roof. Once over the roof Carlson was there and waved the pilot which way to move. Setting it on the platform on the roof then the man below the helicopter unhooked the cables and off the copter went. The helicopter landed next to security. Everyone got out and went to security and up to the roof. Carlson and two other men were already securing the sat to the base. Several people had already wired the building and ran the wires up to the roof. The wires were just waiting to be attached. The electricians would have everything finished in no time at all. All the men noticed how great Mathew looked and how smoothly everything had gone this morning.
Mathew went in the building to Digital Security and asked Chloe and Brack if they could come with him until the guys working on the sat were done. He had something to show them. They followed him to his room down stairs. He walked over to two items that were covered and uncovered them. Plugged them in. They were pin ball machines. Chloe looked at them and said, Wow, where did you get these. Matthew said, a friend of mine makes them and wanted me to test these out for him. What do you think? Brack turned one on and was starting to play it. Matthew said, I want to fix up a room down here with a bowling lane, these pin ball machines and a pizza oven. Things like that. Brack said, That’s great. He had the machine going and was really enjoying it. Matthew said, I am going back to my laptop. Close the door when you go out. Brack said, No problem. When Chloe and Brack returned to their desk the sat was just going on line. Matthew asked Chloe if when she had time would she show Gary the pinball machines and give him ideas on how to set up the game room. He also stressed this game room was going to be for all of security to use. Maybe even birthday parties for the kids. Chloe and Brack said this is so great. When Matthew came back that night at midnight Brack and Chloe were still on their computers. They didn’t sleep all night. He saw Brack drinking energy drinks. Brack was so into the new sat internet that I don’t think he slept for two or three days. Chloe didn’t want to sleep because she found a new satellite in space that gave her these really great real time pictures of the ocean. She could see ships, the people on them and even read what was on their shirts. Chloe only decided to take a nap when she kept falling asleep at he desk. They were like kids at Christmas. Brack was so happy with his purchase.
It was Friday night. Everyone was on their computers on their desk. Chloe was standing up with her new desk when she stepped back and said, Oh my god. Then again, louder this time, Oh my God. Brack got up and said, what is it? He was standing next to her as she pointed to her largest monitor. Brack looked at it, Gary and Matthew were looking at it when Brach said, Is that us? There was a clear picture in living color of their pool and the apartments around it. You could clearly see all the chairs and tables. Everything was clear as a bell. Brack said, Hell no. Gary raised his hand up pointing at the monitor and said, Who is that? All four watched as some women went into Matthews apartment. She put her hand on the security lock and the door opened. Matthew grabbed his phone and called Carlson. Matthew said, my apartment stat. The women went in and Matthew grabbed his gun and headed for his apartment. Mathew, Carlson and several men got there at the same time. Mathew sent one around to guard the front. They slowly and quietly entered the apartment through the sliding door. The women was in the bedroom going threw things. Carlson and one of this men grabbed her. Some women in her 40’s. She came out the apartment hand cuffed and gaged. Back at security Matthew told Carlson to put her in the basement. To use another set of handcuffs to handcuff her to the chair so she would have 2 handcuffs on. Matthew said he was going to take a nap and Carlson could question her is he wanted. Matthew said, Tell her she needs to answer your questions if she doesn’t want me to have to come down there. Matthew told Brack to find out how she got in his apartment and fix the security problem. Brack said he was also going to fix the satellites with a program so they couldn’t see our compound. Matthew told Gary to get Joey to take over for him tonight because he had to take a nap. Matthew laid down on the couch, put a wash rag on his eyes and went to sleep. Brach and Chloe wondered what was going to happen to the woman. They had both heard stories about Matthew. They were up all night fixing the problems because they didn’t feel save to go to sleep until it was done.
