325 325. Victor doesn't have any backup
“What now?” Victor asked.
“We can sense movements from their side. They are preparing to finish all of us right here.” The man replied while catching his breath.
“Take me to the control room now!” Victor ordered before leaving the room, not turning back again.
*MARKUS’s TEAM*
Markus, who was still surviving after the first attack from poisonous blades, instantly ordered the injured to tend their wounds. After all they were poisonous and the extent of harm they could cause was not known.
“We can move ahead now. Remember to stay alert and not get injured. It’s okay if we enter a little late, but let’s not weaken ourselves by being poisoned.” Markus instructed in a stiff voice before resuming ahead.
With that, the team started moving ahead, slow and alert.
“Boss, we have news from Master Victor.” A man informed Markus in a low voice.
“Speak.” Markus said, pausing in tracks to hear from Victor.
“Miss Nicole’s condition has been stabilised, her bleeding has stopped, the bullet was removed and the doctors will finish closing the wound soon. But…” the man said, looking at Markus with horrified eyes after knowing the information.
“Speak up.” Markus said, not having a good feeling about this.
“Their ship is being attacked right now. Seven ships are approaching them from behind, attacking them and he won’t be able to stop them for much time. He has asked you all to remain alert.” The man finished it in one breath, knowing this wasn’t something he could delay speaking.
Markus’s heartbeat raced, understanding the professor’s trap immediately.
“F@#k him!!” Markus cursed.
“Ask them to leave immediately. Victor doesn’t have any backup over there. If something happens, he won’t be able to escape on time.” Markus asked to convey the message.
“Yess boss.” The man replied before instantly passing the message to Victor’s team, hoping no more losses would be faced by their side.
“Who are all on board?” Markus asked while simultaneously starting calculations inside his brain.
“Master Victor, Miss Nicole, their teams, a few doctors and Master Joel.” The man informed Markus.
“Ask men to help him in shifting Joel and Nicole. Both of them are unconscious. Ask them to hurry!” Markus ordered, angry at himself for leaving themselves exposed to the enemies from behind.
But what he regretted the most was letting Victor face this on his own. He should have predicted that the Professor was not the one to play by book rules. In fact he was the one who was likely to cheat and destroy the set of rules, and if needed, maybe kill the referee himself for his own win.
*JASON’s TEAM*
“We can not leave the first brother alone!” Rose said, as all of them had paused after hearing news from Victor’s side.
“Yes. He alone can not escape all of this. Plus we already know about Nicole’s situation.” Harry said, after watching that Jason was not responding.
There was complete silence for another thirty seconds before Rose spoke up.
“Look Jason, I know you are worried about Second sister. But we all know that no matter what, that psycho won’t harm her at any cost. In fact she is the reason why he is going to such great lengths! Why do you have to think so much? We should have already started returning by now!” Rose said, getting all riled up by now.
She understood that she couldn’t abandon Kizy halfway like this. But at least Kizy was guaranteed to remain safe till the end.
But as for Victor, he alone was standing against seven ships loaded with enemies.
No matter how she had to think about this situation, she couldn’t help but choose to go back and help Victor.
And what was irritating her the most was lack of response or any movement from Jason. She knew how important Kizy was for him, but how could he not understand the gravity of the situation after hearing from Victor’s side? No matter what, Victor was his soul brother. So how could he not know what he was supposed to do?
“I totally messed up this time.” Jason murmured, his hands in his head, pulling out his hairs.
“What?” Harry and Rose asked at the same time while looking at the team of men, wanting to know if they heard or understood what Jason said.
But all of them were as blank as they both, not knowing why their leaders were stuck in this conversation instead of taking firm decisions.
Though there was one thing they were sure about. Jason was definitely regretting his entire life right at this moment.
“I thought I was a step ahead, but no. I was walking, walking right into his trap.” Jason said, knowing he had totally fucked up the entire plan this time.
“What do you mean by that?” Rose asked while placing a hand on his shoulder, knowing something was off about Jason.
“Professor already knows about our plan. He is waiting patiently for us. He knows we are heading for Kizy, which means he has already prepared our surprise over there.
Plus he purposefully attacked from behind now, knowing we are deep inside, and not matter how hard we try, we won’t be able to reach near Victor at any cost.

Rose and Harry looked at each other, knowing that they were totally stuck. Even if they were to go for Kizy, they were in for almost an impossible battle to fight. And even if they were to return, they were only to face regret and nothing else.
