Chronicles of Revenge

Chapter 3

Matt and Abhay did the washing up which in this area was unheard of and as they came out Yema spoke to Sue. “So you’re having Matt’s baby, it’s about time a man should have lots of children” Sue’s head spun around to Matt as did Abhay’s both expecting the worst.

Yema did have a way of speaking that could upset people. Matt knew she was a straight talking woman and pulled no punches plus she meant no ill will by her comment. “I mean no disrespect Sue but Matt are you sure the baby’s yours?” he looked at Sue for a moment his senses had told him she was not lying and the baby was his, although he could not pass up this opportunity to have a bit of fun.

Sue stood in front of Matt and replied sharply “Yes it is” Matt with all the sincerity he could muster replied. “Well there were seven men” Sue grabbed him by the collars and pulled him close.

“I swear if you ever mention that again, I’ll find what part of that bloody brain has that memory and I’ll cut it out you see if I don’t SOLDIER BOY” Matt put up his arms like he was surrendering

“What memory” then he laughed and so did they all.

“I like this woman Abhay yes I like her a lot” he was grinning away. Yema brought tea and they all sat outside the air was humid but much cooler now, Sue listened to the insects chattering away somewhere in the foliage then Yema began to recall the incident.

Abhay and I were at an army function and my mother was watching the girls for us everything seemed to be going well until my mother came running in screaming it took a moment to calm her so she could talk.

“The girls Yema the girls they’ve been taken I tried to stop them but I could not, there gone, gone”

“What do mean there gone mother where have they gone?”

“I don’t know men came and took them” Abhay pushed his way forward and spoke in very military way asking the same question as Yema had. “When” was the next thing he asked she didn’t exactly know but guessed about three hours before?

Abhay ordered two land rovers to be made ready to move out straight away, only to be stopped by high ranking official. “You must alert the police this is their work not the army’s” Abhay fired back.

“These are my children and I will go after them with or without your consent” the official stood his ground so Abhay punched him to the ground; he was arrested and was being taken to the guard house.

Matt had been watching the entire thing he was there as an advisory to help train some of the Indian Special Forces. Now unseen he moved outside the function room and quickly made his way to a point where he knew the guards escorting Abhay would pass. He and Abhay had struck up quite a good friendship and as a father he was not going to let some jumped up official come between a man and his children. Suddenly out of now where two rocks soared across the hallway striking two of the four guards escorting Abhay, the other two were too stunned to move as fast as Matt did in a blur they were on the ground laid out cold.

“Let’s go I’ve got a Land Rover ready to move out” said Matt Abhay never hesitated and followed in the front of car was a driver and Yema was in the back with Wolf.

“Where to Boss she’s juiced, loaded and ready, bit like one of me birds” then the driver burst out laughing. Yema could not understand a word he’d said she knew English but not his English, he spoke so fast and his laugh was even faster like a motorbike engine running at full speed. Compared to Abhay and Matt the driver looked like a child small and muscular he never stopped talking and laughing.

The Land Rover had stopped outside Abhay’s house, it had been over five hours since the two girls had been taken and Yema was in pieces while Abhay was fired up swearing he’d get them back and kill the men who have done this, they would pay dearly.

“We will never find them Abhay, it’s been hours they could be anywhere” Yema cried he tried to calm her “I will find them Yema I promise no matter how long it takes or how far I have to go”

“It’s too late you know this”

While this was happening Matt and Wolf had walked around both were sniffing the air then he stated. “This way lets go” now the Rover was hurling down the road Matt stood up with pair of dessert goggles on and a cloth wrapped around the bottom half of his face.

The race was now on Atom was driving flat out following Matt’s directions, all the time talking to himself. “Warp factor eight Mr Scot” and then he’d answer himself “She canny take it sir she’ll break up.”

Abhay had been out with Atom a few times and was used to his ways Yema was not, looking at her he just shook his head and raised his eye brows.

Hurtling through a village Atom skidded to a halt at a small run down garage, “We need more juice Boss I’m saving what’s in cans for last” Abhay spoke to the owner who seemed reluctant to let them have some of his petrol, Atom jumped out and spoke to the owner.

“Listen pal we need that jungle juice so either you cough it up or that big hairy mutt over there is goner have a word with yer savvy” on queue Wolf snarled and the owner could not get the jerry cans out quick enough. Atom was filling the tanks from the jerry cans as the others waited; the garage owner was sweating profusely and took a piece of cloth out from behind the door and wiped his brow.

Abhay watched the man and as soon as he saw the cloth he reacted instantly grabbing the man around the throat and smashing his head against the wall. “WHERE DID YOU GET THIS” he shouted the man could not answer due to the grip Abhay had on him.

“ANSWER YOU DOG” he shouted again. Yema helped release him and watched as he gasped for breath. “Our two daughters were kidnapped a few hours ago and this is part of one of their tops, where did you get it from?” it took a moment for him to control his breathing and then answer. “There was three Lorries packed with men and children they left here about two hours ago”

“Is that all you know...answer me” Abhay was about to strike the man when Atom called. “Wolf see if he’s telling the truth will yer” Wolf leapt down lips back fangs dripping, the man’s eyes were now the size of saucers and with his back against the wall had nowhere to go, a small puddle now appeared around his feet.

“No sir that’s all I know sir” it was Atom who spoke next “Abhay let’s go we’re wasting time” Matt stared at the man for a moment while the others boarded the Rover.

“Wolf he’s lying” he leapt and brought the garage owner down with his throat clamped between his powerful jaws. Abhay was out of the Rover in an instant with his pistol drawn it was Matt who stopped him firing.

“We need him to talk and” suddenly he stopped mid sentence and walked into the back of the garage stopping next to an old canvas sheet. Matt removed the sheet underneath was small cage inside was two young girls.

Matt guessed around seven or eight he spoke gently to them in their own language. “It’s okay you can come out no one will hurt you here” Yema came over and reassured them some more slowly they came out. Yema had seen animals treated better. Then suddenly one of the girls bolted for the door Abhay shouted at her to stop, the sound of his powerful voice had its affect the girl stopped dead in her tracks what she did next shocked even Matt.

The young girl who’d ran dropped to the floor on all fours pulled her dress up spat on her fingers and then rubbed the spit over and in her rectum, she was now ready for s*x.

Matt’s face changed into instant rage slowly his head turned towards the garage owner. “Has he told you anymore Atom?”

“Nah not a sausage Boss” Matt moved towards the man as did Abhay while Yema took the girls to the Rover while Atom stood guard. The two of them approached and the owner who now could not stop talking, the gang stole young girls to sell as brides or s*x slaves and the two girls in there were nothing to do with him they’d left them and he out of the kindness of his heart had feed them and took care of them.

“Yeah I know how you took care of em f*****g kiddie fiddler” said Atom. Abhay kicked him hard in the balls he screamed but no one came to help. “Sir sir I swear I had nothing to do with this” Matt looked at Wolf, he now moved within inches of the owners face snarling all the time.

“Two hours or so outside of town heading west they camp there sir, I’m not lying sir, not lying” Abhay looked at Matt he nodded the owner was telling the truth. Matt check the two girls were in the Rover and out of sight before turning away towards Atom Abhay was by his side.

“Wait up Boss we aint leaving him are we, the f*****g nonce” Matt shoved Atom out and pulled the old door across the opening leaving only a small gap big enough for Wolf to get out. Leaving Wolf inside with the owner in, Wolf attacked tearing the man’s face and throat to shreds he then appeared moments later his face covered in blood.

“What are we to do with the girls?” asked Yema

“They come with us if we cannot find their parents then we will find a home for them” Yema agreed comforting the girls took her mind off her own two girls. Not Abhay though he was more determined to find and kill the men who took his girls. Matt spoke to Abhay “There must be more people in the village that knew about this”

“I agree and I will deal with them later first my girls”

Atom drove for over an hour when Matt called a stop; again he and Wolf got out and sniffed the air. The night was closing in and darkness would now be there friend. There may be many men ahead of them still they had the element of surprise on their side along with a serious amount of rage.

Matt got out a map and laid it on the bonnet then he gave out his orders “Atom you and Yema take the Rover around this way, Abhay Wolf and me will go over land and attack there camp. Whatever happens Atom you are to protect the Yema and the girls bug out if you have to under stood?”

“Boss”

Matt took only weapons ammo and water so did Abhay “Atom hand me Eva” putting the leather case over his back. Matt and Abhay set off on foot across the rough terrain both stripped to the waist carrying a rifle in one hand and water in the other.

The run took over an hour both men were sweating and drank the last of their water, walking slowly to regain their breath Matt and Abhay stopped on the edge of a rocky out crop. Five hundred meters ahead was there camp, now both men moved silently forward keeping low and having to crawl the last hundred meters. Matt told Abhay to circle around from the left and he would do the same from the right they would meet back here in fifteen minutes.

Wolf took point as normal Matt moved around the edge of the camp until he stopped by an old truck there was two men guarding it, Matt and Wolf waited underneath. Matt could hear the children breathing above some were sobbing his rage was rising but he had it under control for now when the fighting started it would be let out and there would be no mercy.

A few minutes past then the guard was changed Matt learnt that they changed every hour, more than enough time. He and Wolf finished their reccy and returned to Abhay. Matt drew a quick map of the camp as he saw it Abhay agreed after he changed one detail.
