Monster (Present Day)

They were on the road for another couple of hours before Sophia finally signaled for them to pull over. The landscape around them had grown scarce, lush greenery giving way to stubby, succulent plants. They passed through a couple of small towns, but even those had thinned out to the occasional homestead, until eventually there was nothing to see for miles around except the road and desert scenery.

The two cars stopped on the side of the road about forty minutes from where Sophia said Rodriguez’s property was located. The four people mingled between the two vehicles, planning and preparing themselves for the fight which would come next.

They took time to help Sean build up his strength, making sure he was taking regular sips of water and the pain medication Sophia had mixed in with it. The gunshot wound to his stomach was causing him pain, but he had no fresh bleeding, and he was one of the world’s tough guys. He wasn’t going to let a little something like being shot hold him back.

Monster couldn’t pretend he was comfortable with leaving Sean and Chapman behind, or allowing Sophia to knock him out. In fact, every part of this plan made him uncomfortable, but he couldn’t see any other way around it. Everything Sophia had said was true—they’d never get into the property without being seen as they approached—and no one had a better idea of how to rescue Lily. He refused to allow his fear for his own safety be the thing that held him back, the thing that abandoned Lily with Rodriguez. But he needed to take precautions, and while Sophia was busy getting various medications ready for them, he made sure he had a quiet word with Sean and Chapman, so they understood exactly what needed to be done.

Sophia stood with a map spread across the hood of one of the cars. “You’re going to need to give us enough time for Rodriguez’s men to take us inside before you can approach,” she called out to Chapman. “Hopefully, our arrival will be a big enough distraction that they’ll keep their eyes off the surrounding area long enough for you to both make it in and over the walls, or through the gate if the opportunity arises.”

Monster gave a nod. “Let’s hope so.”

“We’re well armed,” said Chapman. “They won’t be expecting us, so that will be our advantage. They’re never going to suspect this is a set-up. No one in their right mind would have the kind of balls it takes to be knocked out and delivered right to their enemy.”

Monster turned to him. “You’re making me want to shoot you myself.”

“Sorry, sir.”

Sophia opened her bag and removed a small glass vial and a syringe. “This sedative will knock you out for not much longer than an hour. I’ll only give you a small dose, so you will appear completely under, though you might find some awareness coming back pretty quickly. Just make sure you keep your eyes closed until the right moment, and until you feel completely back in control of yourself.
