Mahmat sighed deeply as he thought of the things he had to do, again, in order to make sure that justice would be served.
The law was so easy to be manipulated and played with.
Evidence tampering. Witnesses disappearing. Years of it dragging on and making the evidence and witnesses become less valid. All the while, he would be free. Even if he was jailed, it was undeniable that he would be treated well - unlike normal inmates.
Added to the fact that if the file of his deeds got exposed, chaos could ensue within the country.
The Minister of Defence doing such things?
What about other Ministers?
It would cause more people to start pointing fingers. They wouldn't be able to do their job properly as they would then be also busy with keeping people happy. Riots can happen. So many possibilities.
With the file exposing all the deeds, Mahmat felt his hands were tied. Despite what he had, he could not do what he needed to do to get Xavier the end he deserved. Thus, what the mysterious figure was going to do, was something he that needed to be done.

Sayuri practically jumped upon Kyle when he returned.
"Hey, I told you it would be okay," he said softly, smiling as the welcome.
"I know," Sayuri said, "But even though you said it, and I know you're skilled, it doesn't mean I wouldn't still be worried."
It was only natural, right? Only those who didn't care would feel nothing.
Kyle hugged her to him, and kissed her, "I gotta bathe now."
"So it all went smoothly?" Sayuri asked, following behind him into the bedroom, "He was everything you thought he was?"
"And more," Kyle said, "Poor guy. It wasn't an easy decision to make, but one he did anyway."
Sayuri watched as Kyle started taking off his clothes, revealing that body that she loved so much. No matter how many times she has seen it, and touched it, it never seemed to be enough.
Kyle was so comfortable with her around that he stripped completely naked, throwing the dirty clothes into the laundry basket before he turned towards the bathroom. He jerked a bit when Sayuri slapped his *ss.
He turned his head slowly towards the girl that was sitting on the edge of the bed, smiling at him while unbuttoning her blouse.
Okay, so the shower could wait.

Xavier couldn't believe what was happening.
Being told to voluntarily step down was within his expectations, but not the 'request' to go and take a long break. The official news was that he stepped down to spend more time with his family, to heal the rift. Thus, he would be going off on an extended holiday.
But he knew the truth.
After this, there wouldn't be any position for him to hang on to.
Although he was seething over having lost such a good position, he eventually felt that it was, perhaps, a good thing. Over the past few weeks while his private life was in turmoil, there had been more attacks on the base of operations.
Since he is no longer in any position, he could escape this Hell Hole.
He made plans to leave the Country.
He had more than enough to live a life of luxury until he died. Just go, and once abroad, no one could force him to return so long as he didn't break the law in that country. He was practically humming as he started packing his luggage.
Walking into his closet, he took out the basics only. He didn't want any heavy luggage as he could easily buy what he needed elsewhere. What was important was speed. He couldn't wait to get out.
He had heard about Donnie being the target of assassination.
Who knows? He could be next.
When the sh*t hit the fan, where was Donnie? Or others?
Nowhere.
He had been abandoned by those higher-ups, probably seen as useless right now. Fine by him. He could get out and get on with his life.
His wife was out, still giving him the cold shoulder - which was fine with him. It made him leaving even easier.
"Ya know, leaving like this isn't good," came a voice nearby.
Xavier whirled, his gun out to point at the direction of the voice. However, there was no one there.
He twirled about frantically in the bedroom, trying to find the source of the voice.
"Nite-nite," came a voice right by his ear. Before he could react, everything went dark.
That night, the news exploded.
Syed Xavier, having said he was quitting to spend time with his family, had disappeared. Records showed him leaving the country and no one knew where he went. All that hype about him wanting to be together with his family was just fake.
Mahmat, who was the one behind the scenes to ensure this news was spread as such, wondered idly where Xavier was. The mysterious guy didn't look old but one could never tell.
Those dark brown eyes had been so cold and emotionless.
He had seen such eyes before.
On his assassination team members.
Despite what Xavier had done, Mahmat still sent a prayer over to him. Wherever he may be, whatever he is experiencing, may he repent before it's too late.

Xavier slowly opened his eyes, his head pounding.
Where was he?
"It's nice that you are awake," came the same voice he heard before he passed out.
He blinked his eyes, trying to get them to focus as he looked up. This time, he could barely make out a figure standing there. He blinked again and finally, his vision came back.
"You?!" he gasped.
"Whoa," Kyle said, genuinely surprised, "You do know me. How very interesting."
So, Xavier, had him monitored?
