Harry waited for the Browning machine guns to stop , before slowly rising himself up from behind the car . He looked around him as everyone were busy with their own problems ; police and paramedics were taking care of the people who were shot , Liam was giving orders to his squad members , and reporters were trying to explain what was happening at the scene .

He started walking away from the scene down the road , making sure he was pulling as less attention as he could .

When he first started working for Frank , he did his research ; went through maps of the close area , made sure he knew about every room in the house top to bottom , knew who the neighbours were . One of the things he found interesting , was that there was a sewer that lead into the mansion - all the way to the pool's control room in the backyard .

He found the lid of the sewer on the road , just halfway under a hood of a parked car . He kneeled down and lifted it open , struggling to lift such heavy metal piece , but managed to do so enough to fit himself through it , and crawled in . He closed the lid over his head and put the crook of his elbow to his nose at the smell , starting to make his way towards the mansion .

"Seventeen feet , to the right ." He mumbled to himself , quickly finding the turn . "Thirty three feet to the left ."

It took him almost ten minutes , but when he finally reached the pool's control room he sighed in relief . He stayed quiet to make sure there was no one around , before lifting the lid over his head and making a quick and quiet move out of the sewer , shutting the lid quietly . He stood up and took a deep breath , before going to the window . He pressed himself to the wall , slowly peeking outside to see if there was anyone nearby .

Luckily there wasn't , but he could see a figure at the living room window , dressed in black and holding an m-16 gun . He sighed and went to the corner of the room , where the vent was . He unscrewed the lid off the wall and reached his arm in , finding the small bag he hid there over a year ago .

He pulled out an ear piece and put it in his ear , pressing the side button ; it was a speed dial to emergency calls . As he waited for someone to answer he geared himself up with what was in the bag .

"Nine one one , how can I help you ?"

"My name is Harry Styles , I'm talking from the Tomlinson mansion . Pass me over to the negotiators ."

"Hold please ."

He sighed , lifting the pant of his left leg and strapping a knife to his calf , before loading another gun and putting it in his belt , with a second catridge .

"Officer Brown speaking ."

"Harry Styles , six four one eight nine one seven ." Harry repeated his name and army number . "I work for Frank Tomlinson , Louis' body guard . Who else can hear me ?"

"Police negotiators . Mr and Mrs Tomlinson can hear you aswell . Where are you at currently ?"

"Pool's control room . Have you spoken to the kidnappers ?"

"We did ."

It was silent for a few seconds as Harry waited for more information . "Well , tell me , will you ?"

"We cannot discuss this with you ." He heard Frank saying . "What the fuck are you even doing there ?"

"Louis is inside of the mansion , held hostage by several armed men , and you're asking me what I'm doing here ?" Harry asked in disbelief , "I'm going to fucking get him out of there , alive and well ."

"You don't know what you're going into , boy ."

"Well , you don't either . But I might get an idea of it if you fucking tell me what's going on inside ."

"Their ransom is a hundred and fifty million dollars . He's most likely held in the security room in the second floor basement ." Harry heard an officer explaining . "We don't know how many are there , nor do we know how much armary they have . The power is cut off , they cut the chords when they walked in , so we have no security footage to tell either ."

Harry rubbed his eyes , nodding . "Okay . I'm signing off for now , I'll call back in an hour ." He said and pressed the button on the earpiece , ending the call . He took a deep breath , before quietly opening the door of the small room , which thankfully wasn't in front of the house but on the other side .

He pressed his back to the wall and moved to the corner , looking both sides to make sure it was clear , before rounding the room and making a run for the mansion . He pressed himself to the wall once at the mansion , gun held tightly in his hands as he pulled the safety off .

Frank kept his arm comfortingly around Martha , rubbing her back as they watched police officers and high-ranked people sitting around the table .

"Call them ." The head officer , Dan James , ordered as he sat down in his chair .

The room fell silent as everyone waited for the kidnappers to answer their call .

"Hello , welcome to my crib ." The guy who answered the call sounded amused ; you could almost hear the smirk in his voice .

"Cut the nonsense ." Dan rolled his eyes , "How is Louis ?"

"Our little Louis is doing alright , he's alive and well ." The guy on the other line said , "Just a bit shaken up , aren't we ?"

"And the ransom ?"

"Still the same price ."

"We will never give you that much money ." Martha bit back , "Never ."

"Oh , how unfortunate ." The guy chuckled , "Well see , I don't have all day . This is what's going to happen , -"

"You don't make the rules here -" Dan tried .

"I'm going to call back in thirty minutes , and hopefully you'll change your mind . You see , you have a very nice kid . Very quiet . I would hate to make him cry while having you listen to it all . So , thirty minutes starting ... now ." 

The line went dead .

Dan tightened his jaw . "Tell Payne's team to start getting ready to enter ."

~~

Louis sat on the floor in the corner of the room , his wrists tied together in front of him , his ankles tied aswell . His tears stopped a short while ago , now he was just staring blankly ahead of him with a lump in his throat .

A guy kneeled in front of him , head tilted a bit to the side . "Hi Louis . My name is Ceid . I'm in charge here ."

Louis looked away from him , Ceid leaned his chin on his hand , "Sit tight , it's going to be a long day ." He said and stood up , "Next call you're going to tell them to pay the ransom ."

~~

"These savages want a hundred and fifty million dollars ! This is fucking ridiculous ." Frank shook his head , officer Brown nodded along , "It is , we know it is . But we're going to do anything we can possibly do to make sure you don't give them the money , and we get Louis out of there . You have my word ."

"Frank , I want to talk to you ." Martha grabbed his shoulder , the two stood up and left the room .

Officer Brown walked up to Dan . "Sir , what do we know about Harry Styles ?"

Dan opened his file and went through a few papers , before pulling one out . "Harry Styles , twenty four years old , veteran . Served for three years , finished eighteen months ago and started working for Frank fifteen months ago . Been Louis' personal body guard these past fifteen months ."

Officer Brown nodded . "Do you reckon we can trust him ?"

"I'm trying to grab a hold of his commanders at the moment to talk to anyone who would give me answers on him . Personally I think he has a high chance of either getting Louis out of there , or getting them both killed ."

"Let's hope for the best , then ."

Harry moved close to the wall , stopping before the glass doors to the living room . The curtains were pulled shut , apart from a small gap between two curtains . He made his way slowly and carefully to the gap , kneeling down before peeking into the living room . He took a few seconds to make sure there was no one there , and stood up to reach for the handle .

Just as he was about to twist down the handle and open the glass door , he saw two guys patrolling the living room . He pulled back quickly and moved to the wall , so his shadow wouldn't be seen against the curtains . He made a quick move to screw a soundproof roll on his gun as he heard footsteps nearing the glass doors .

He hid behind the corner of the wall , with his gun raised , keeping himself still as the glass doors opened . He saw a guy with a gun held up stepping out with his back to him , and without thinking much he shot the back of his head , watching him falling to the floor .

He heard the second guy's footsteps nearing aswell , so he kneeled to the ground with his gun raised upwards . 

The second guy stepped out of the living room , this time facing where Harry was , not seeing him yet .

"Fucking show yourself , coward ." The guy tried provoking Harry , but Harry stayed hidden . He heard him walking closer , and with a quick move he peeked from the lower corner of the wall , shooting the guy in the chest , making him stumble backwards , then shooting him again , the bullet going under his chin and out the top of his head , as the guy fell to the floor .

Harry sighed quietly and stood up with his gun still raised , stepping over the two guys and entering the living room , closing the glass doors behind him . He moved the curtains open to show the backyard , then stayed quiet to make sure there was no one nearby .

Once he was sure it was safe , he started making his way carefully out of the living room to the dining area and the kitchen . He peeked into the dining area , swallowing thickly when he saw Diego laying on the floor in a pool of blood under him . He walked in and kneeled next to him , putting two fingers to his neck under his jaw to check for pulse . He couldn't find it .

He took a deep breath through his nose , then he heard voices from the kitchen .

"Look at all this food , lad , it's like an entire fucking store ."

"Such greedy pigs , I'm telling you . Once we get the money and we're out of here I'm going to have Ceid hire us a chef to cook us food twenty four seven ."

Harry slowly made his way to the kitchen entrace , peeking inside . He saw two guys munching away on anything they could get their hands on , making him scrunch his nose .

"Do you reckon he'll pay us ?"

"Well he has to , that was the deal ."

"But what if the police does anything ?"

"They can fucking try ."

Harry shot one guy in the head , and the other one in the thigh twice .

The two fell to the floor , the one who was shot in the thigh wailed in pain . Harry made a quick move over to him and grabbed a towel from the counter , shoving it in his mouth to silence him .

"Shut the fuck up ." Harry mumbled as he grabbed another towel , making a quick move to tie the guy's wrists together . He took a deep breath , "I'm going to take the towel out of your mouth , and you're going to give me some answers ."

The guy tried hitting Harry with his tied hands , Harry moved away and grabbed a cloth , pressing it down harshly into his bullet wounds , making the guy cry out in pain into the towel .

"Listen to me ." Harry grabbed his jaw , "Let's do some yes or no questions . Is Louis okay ?"

The guy nodded quickly .

"Is he in the basement security room ?"

Another nod .

"How many men are you in here ?" Harry asked , removing the towel from his mouth .

"T-twenty seven . We're twenty seven . Twenty s-six now , Brian is dead , you just killed him ."

"Twenty four , then ." Harry nodded to himself . "Deadline ?"

"Dawn ."

"Ransom ?"

"One hundred and fifty million ."

"Your boss ?"

"Ceid ."

"Ceid what ?"

"I don't know ."

"Ceid what ?"

"I don't know ! He never said !"

"How many people are in the security room ?"

"Six ."

"Including Ceid ?"

"Yes ."

"Thank you ." Harry said before shoving the towel back in his mouth . He took the guy's gun , along with the other guy's gun , patting the two down for more weapons . He found two hand grenades and catridges , taking them with him as he left the guy in the kitchen . He couldn't bring himself to shoot him again , the guy was shot twice in the leg and he was unarmed .

As he left the kitchen , he realized he made a mistake .

"Intruder ! Intruder !!"

Harry ran back to the kitchen as the guy kept yelling , his voice carrying throughout the quiet mansion . 

"Intruder ! Intruder ! Int --"

The guy was cut off by Harry shooting him in the head , hearing several footsteps running towards the kitchen . He ran to the other side of the kitchen away from the door , hiding behind the counter against the cabinets .

"Show yourself !"

"Fucking shit , they killed Brian and Sean ."

One of the guys shot all around the kitchen to lure Harry out of his hiding spot , but Harry didn't move . He looked down at his belt , seeing the two grenades tucked in . He grabbed a grenade in one hand , his other hand reaching for a teapot on a shelf in front of him .

He tossed the teapot to the other side , the teapot shattered all over the floor , pulling all the guys' attention as two of them shot the area a few times , thinking it might be the intruder - Harry .

Just then , Harry pulled the pin off the grenade , throwing it over the counter towards the five men standing in the entrace . He quickly lowered himself and covered his ears .

"Grenade !!"

There was a loud explosion , Harry coughed a bit at the smoke around the kitchen . He grabbed his gun in his hands and listened carefully to the sounds around him , as he crawled on his knees to the end of the counter . He peeked over the corner , seeing two bodies motionless on the floor .

"Shit ! Fucking shit ! Son of a bitch !"

Harry slowly stood up with his gun pointed at the men , three were dead and two were injured .

One of the guys held his gun up at Harry but wasn't quick enough , Harry shot him twice . The second guy managed to shoot at Harry , yet the bullet only grazed his arm without hitting him , and Harry shot him aswell .

"Augh , fuck ." Harry sighed , opening a drawer and grabbing a cloth . He pressed it to his arm , face scrunching at the burning feeling . He checked the pulse on every guy in the kitchen , sighing out when they were all dead .

Eighteen more to go .
