Chapter 19: Brutality
"Hello, this is the emergency line for the Commissioner of Police, please state your crisis." An automated female voice responded, used to filter out unimportant calls from the truly important ones.
"Password: Falconer!" Franco stated quickly.
The line immediately switched, and a calm, stoic male voice replied. "Tell me your crisis immediately."
"I'm at Summit Hill University, and we are currently under attack by terrorist forces armed with military-grade weaponry!" Franco informed while glancing at Raul, who was peeking through the corner of the door to check the hallway they came from.
"Do not panic. Where are you right now?" the Police Commissioner asked gravely.
"We are within the Sophomore Dormitories near the eastern end of the campus," Franco replied, pausing for a split second and speaking in a slower tone.
"Good. Do not panic or make any rash moves. Remain where you are so my people can find you. Most importantly, do not make any more calls after this as they can give away your position. Do you hear me?"
"Yes, sir," Franco replied calmly.
Franco hung up the call and glanced at a puzzled Raul, who was looking at him with inquiry, and Rina, who was looking at him as if he were an idiot.
