It is 12:30 am they all were ready to go inside. Tim said, “What’s the plan?” Simon said, “I don’t know this place very well. So we cannot understand where we are going; our aim is only to go and save Max and not others. Just follow me, and I will take you to get the parts of your machine.”

Tim and Tom follow Simon to the camp. Barbed wires and big walls surrounded the camp. From the outside, the camp looked like a peaceful place filled with flowers, and it beautiful, but it was on the one side of the wall. The other side was filled with horror and terror. It was a kill house. A lot of people are killed daily.

When they enter the camp, they hear many screams; even the children are not shown mercy. Things have not gone as planned. The guards were filled around, and their security was not weakened. Simon said, “I am only afraid of one thing when we enter to find Max the people would scream and it will attract the guards, and that is not easy so we need to get 3 disguise clothes of the guard so we can enter without getting noticed.” Tim saw some guards were outside their guard zone taking a piss. Tim said, “Let’s take out of those three.” Simon took the one in the center, and Tim and Tom took on the right and left ones.

They wore the dress, and Tom said, “You look good in this dress.” Simon said, “I told you I was in the army and my wife always wanted me to see in green and even in her funeral I wore this dress. And thanks for telling the truth, you look well too.” Tom said, “You know I lost my mother killed by the same man who killed his father. She also liked me when I wore this dress, and I really miss her. At least we have something in common. I have never seen my father before. All I have is his belongings, not him. My mom told me that he was a soldier and always fighting with my mum, but he always loved me. And he sounds just like you, a soldier but only one difference you love your whole family.” Simon said, “Yeah, hope you will see your father soon.”
