Ashgard: Ambition and Purpose
Explosive #75

Seconds by second kept going, and local time showed seven past ten minutes.

A helicopter landed several black-clad officers with their long guns on top of several buildings close to the Bank Central Metro building. Not only that, police helicopters were also seen dropping some people right above the bank building. While the units on the ground are ready at several exit points from the bank, including the emergency exit at the back of the building.

Now the directives from Prawira will determine the movement of the next authorities. By utilizing helicopters that continue to air around the building, Prawira so know when he must give orders or directions for the movement of its members.

"Sniper teams are in position, sir." The officers deployed above the building gave their report to Prawira by radio.

"We're also ready to ambush through the top, sir." The team that was taken down by the helicopter just above from the bank building also reported their position.

Prawira received the reports, and prepared to make an ambush into the building with the right time. He looked at his watch, which showed at seven and fourteen minutes.

"You guys get ready! We will move in a moment" Prawira said with low speech intonation to her colleagues beside her. His position is now in an alley close to the building's emergency exit. He along with his tactical unit planned to enter through the emergency exit or the back door.

"We're always ready, sir." The assault rifles carried by his comrades were instantly prepared. They removed the guards on the trigger of the rifles they were carrying, and with the ammunition full.

Prawira let out a long sigh with a gaze gazing towards the night sky that was so bright. Calmness mixed with tension, such is the atmosphere tonight felt by Prawira.

A moment later he looked back at his watch, before giving an order using his communications radio, saying, "now!"

BOOM ..!!!

"Damn!"

"From behind!"

"From the front too?!"

Explosions again occurred in the interior of the building, and a moment later all the officers involved were thrust into the building. A shootout ensued and was inevitable. The perpetrators in there blindly opened fire on every apparatus they saw.

The previously calm atmosphere instantly turned chaotic. Because the perpetrators in there really can not be cooperative and continue to fight against the members. As a result the party from Prawira has no other choice but to paralyze the perpetrators on the spot, because otherwise his life and his colleagues are at stake.

"Come on! Coming in!"

"The team at the front entrance has already made it inside!"

"We're authorized to join, sir!" said one of the officers from the squad that was lowered by the helicopter through the roof of the building. They went down the stairs and immediately joined Prawira's squad.

"You help join the incoming team from the front door! The rest follow me to the safe!" After the room that Prawira and his team are currently in has been secured. He immediately pointed some of his fellow officers to accompany him to the safe.

The safe is located underground. They had to go down the stairs that coiled down to reach the safe, and the place was very high risk because there was only one way out and in.

"Beware of the corners of the room, and the mines they could have placed on these stairs!" said Prawira when he and his team arrived in front of the stairs down.

One of the members picked up an explosive grenade from his pocket, and then threw the grenade down the stairs until it exploded. A moment later, simultaneously Prawira and his colleagues rushed down the stairs while continuing to take shots of his firearm.

But unfortunately, when it arrived right in front of the safe that was already open. Prawira and his team did not encounter any of the perpetrators who were there. Even the contents of the safe in the form of a pile of cash that was up in the mountains were still there.

"empty!"

"No one at all, sir."

Some of its members who checked into the vast safe and could be loaded more than five people back to Prawira and reported zero results. There are no criminals hiding in it.

The sound of a sudden explosion was heard for the third time coming from the top floor. Hearing this, Prawira and his team took swift steps and immediately moved back up.

"Fire?!"

"Bring out the wounded comrade!"

"Eject them!"

How surprised Prawira when he saw the fire that raged so large filled the teller area and the bank lobby. His gaze then turned toward some police officers lying there, probably due to the explosion. Together with his team, he immediately evacuated his colleagues and brought the injured out of the building.

Not only that, Prawira and his colleagues who survived also evacuated some of the perpetrators who were still alive despite being full of gunshot wounds.

"Is there still something inside?" prawira asked when he was right in front of the building entrance.

"Still, sir. Three members were injured and several of the perpetrators were successfully paralysed. They were caught right in the middle of that fire" replied one of his colleagues.

"We have to get them out!" cetus Prawira and then about to go back inside. But unfortunately his steps were stopped by the clutches of the hands of his members who prevented him from entering.

"The fire in there is already too fierce, we cannot enter without having to extinguish it first! The fire department has been called and is hurtling here, we better wait for them first."

"But if we wait, they'll -"

DUAR ...!!!

A large enough explosion occurred for the fourth time, and the explosion came from a fire that devoured the first floor of the building. As a result of the explosion, some of the particles were burned by the fire until they scattered out.

Prawira and some of his colleagues could only be silent with the sight of no flickering at all looking towards the blazing flames so large from inside there.

A pitch-black, six-wheeled car drove up to a warehouse located on top of the hills of Shandy Shell Lake.

"Fortunately you're not grilled in there, Farres." With a slightly giggling tone, Doma said so to his partner who was now sitting right next to him who was driving the car.

"You really are," Farres turned her head and looked sharply at Doma then continued her words, "you're really late!"

"Come on, just a few seconds late. Most importantly I managed to pull you out of there, didn't I?" sahut Doma slightly glanced towards his companion beside him.

"It's over, it's over, too" said Farres, then sighing and leaning on the chair.

"By the way, Tokyo will be coming in a while longer," Doma chirped and managed to make Farres a little surprised.

"When?! Isn't it too soon?" sahut Farres's.

Doma briefly glanced sharply at Farres beside him and then said, "tomorrow."
