Dylan Danger’s phone buzzed loudly on the wooden kitchen table, breaking the serene atmosphere of the early morning. He glanced at the caller ID: ‘Blocked.’ Against his instincts, he picked up the phone.
“This is Dylan.”
“Is this how you usually answer your phone, Dad?” The voice on the other end was laced with youthful sarcasm, but also an undercurrent of seriousness that didn’t escape him.
“Ellie?” Dylan’s tone shifted, a mix of relief and curiosity. “You rarely call from a blocked number.”
“I had to. My CIA training starts in a week, remember? Some things are about to change, and one is the level of our communication security.”
“Fair enough,” Dylan said, as he poured himself a cup of coffee. “So, what brings you to call your old man this early?”
Just as Ellie was about to reply, the line crackled with static. A muffled commotion erupted on the other end. For a chilling second, Dylan heard his daughter scream.
“Ellie? Ellie!” His grip tightened around the phone as his instincts kicked into high gear. He tracked the call’s origin using an encryption-breaking software he had kept since his special forces days. The software found the approximate location—just as the call abruptly ended.
Within minutes, Dylan was en route, pushing his car to its speed limits. His mind raced through the list of enemies he’d made over the years. Who would be audacious enough to kidnap a soon-to-be CIA trainee, especially when she was the daughter of Dylan Danger?
He arrived at the traced location, a dilapidated warehouse. His eyes caught the glint of shattered glass on the ground—the remnants of Ellie’s phone. Next to it lay a military-grade stun grenade pin. This was no ordinary kidnapping.
He picked up his phone and dialled Detective Lisa Daniels. “Daniels, it’s Dylan. Ellie’s been kidnapped. I need your help.”
“Where are you?” Daniels was instantly alert.
Dylan shared his location. “I’m sending you coordinates. This is Black Ops-level stuff. I think she’s been taken by professionals.”
Daniels sighed. “I’m on my way. But remember, this is more than police work now. If she’s CIA, then it’s federal jurisdiction. You sure you want to go rogue on this?”
Dylan pocketed his phone and clenched his fists. “They went rogue the moment they took my daughter. Now they’re going to reap the whirlwind.”
As he waited for Daniels, Dylan stared at the warehouse, each second stretching unbearably long. But one thing was crystal clear: the abductors had just initiated a dangerous game. And it was a game Dylan Danger was hell-bent on winning.
