You will confess while bringing your own evidence

His hands were shaking a bit when Sigret laid his life's secrets bare with just a few words. He looked devastated for a second before quickly pulling out a gun from his pocket and pointed at  Sigret. Fear was the first thing he felt but being the leader of the group and the follower of 'that' person, he had his privileges.

That privilege being the revolver in his hand.

"Zun" (Disarm)

Robin spoke his first words in this tense standoff. The revolver in his hand got thrown off magically to a corner of the room. Robin just used the 'disarm' command to divest the four men of their knives which landed on the revolver in a read pile.

If Omari had any sense of confidence in his victory, he had lost the remaining ounce of it. He was so scared that he started praying as he felt that these three were some kind of shamans or djinns that had come for his life.

These people arrived , seemingly out of nowhere, aired his dirty laundry and disarmed their weapons with only a voice command. This could only be possible by some evil magic. These people weren't exactly literate so they tended to be more superstitious. Actually, even if they were quite educated they would still have believed it to be some form of black magic or voodoo. The remaining guys who were lying on the floor, hurt also got to see this spectacle  and they too started praying under their breaths.

"You see, now you have scared them."

"How is that my fault? He took out a gun and pointed at you. I wouldn't let anyone threaten any of us."

"Well, at least he will fear us for the rest of his life."

"As if I am going to appear in front of him after this."

The cool down period from the previous  command ended and Robin proceeded to use a much stronger command this time to make his life easier here.

"Gol Hah Dov" (Bend will)

This command was the one that Robin had decided long before he came to 'meet' these people here. Since he had decided not to kill people, he would have to make sure that these people were brought to justice. And what better command to use here than 'Bend Will'

This would make several characters listen to his words without question and obey everything he said. Though it was mostly used in the game for riding a dragon instead of affecting NPCs. One couldn't speak their words in game, but it was totally a different ball game here.

His words would be law for these people. And these people were ordinary beings to begin with, hence would be more affected by his words. When Robin spoke those words, all the men stiffened. The men who had been groaning on the floor stood up, not caring about their pain whatsoever.

"Give us all the information about your assignment tomorrow." Robin ordered.

And like a robot being controlled Omari said.

"We have been given the assignment to go to the Pyramids exploration site and destroy each and every piece of equipment of the archaeological team. We have also been paid a little extra to torture some of the men and women. But we have decided to do so in a way so that it looks like we are hate countries like America and Europe. I don't know anything more."

"Does this guy even know that Europe isn't a country? Sigh!"

"Each and everyone of you start fighting each other now." Robin ordered again.

And  the men started assaulting each other. Fists, scratches, kicks, bites, everything. The fight was bloody, purple bruises formed and blood had started to flow freely from their wounds. Even the building rocked a bit due to this mayhem.

Robin allowed it to continue for a full minute before telling them to stop. The faces of these men were all battered and bruised. Blood flowed from some of the bites and scratches. Some even lost their teeth.

But none of these people uttered any scream or groans of pain. The commands overpowered even their pain receptors. They were completely in his thrall.

"Each and everyone of you will go to the police station after collecting all the evidence of your past deeds and confess to the police. The confession will continue even in the court in the future. You all have never seen me nor will you admit being in any form of coercion. You will plead for guilty on all your charges and serve the prison time or death penalty depending on the laws. Omari, you will name your handler too and accuse him of hiring you. Remember one thing, you will not say anything about tomorrow's assignment."

Every single one nodded their heads and started moving downstairs to get to work. Though Robin couldn't speak Arabic, his command affected the soul of these men and that bypassed any language barrier.

"That was quite neat." Sigret commented as she kept the lightsaber hilt back in her pocket.

"You thought I would mess it up and they will end up recognizing me because my suit looks exactly like thae one in the games."

"Not that exactly, but you never had used your suit in the fight and you would only be exposed if you would have used the special features of the suit. Then again, the police and the others would have to believe these men if the word ever got out. But I thought you would kill them? Some of these men were rapists and murderers. They deserved to die."

"I know. This is where you come in. Kill them in the prison itself. I am sure there will be people who will take up that job."

"Still not ready to kill people?"

"I am ready. But just not here. If I kill them here, their confession might be null and void, and the handler might try to steer the case in his favor saying that these men were coerced into confessing. Of course we can kill the handler but I am sure there are more powerful men behind him. I want to catch all of them in one trap, not teleport all around the planet and hunt them like rats."

"Oh.. My master has grown some brains I see."

"Stop with the master thing."

Robin got irritated and started to move upstairs and go back to TARDIS. He had confronted a lot of people in his first rodeo and though he was confident in taking these men down, he also wanted to see if he was mentally strong enough to see others covered in blood.

Seemed like it was quite easy for him and he handled it pretty well. He could now proudly say that he had lost his childhood fear of seeing people in pain. This was a big step for Robin for his own personal growth.

Myrene and Sigret were both happy to see Robin take the first step. Though Sigret would have liked a blood bath with everyone being killed, Robin was right too. Doing that would have served no purpose. This was probably the best result that could be expected in this situation.

After Robin and others returned to TARDIS, Sigret took them back to their house in Hallstatt.

"Sigret, did you record everything?"

"Yes. Of course."

"Good. Send this video after cropping us out to that Dr. .. What was his name again? Ah.. Dr. Samuel Livingstone. Send this video to him. Send another video to the handler after these men confess their crimes to the police."

"You got it boss." Sigret said as she used her computing power to carry out the instructions.

-----

Some thousand miles away in the state of Ohio in a very luxurious apartment a man in his 50s sat drinking a scotch which was almost as old as him. He was wearing pyjamas at home as he lived alone since his wife had divorced long ago.

He cheated on her with one of his colleagues and she found out. Next thing he knew, he was paying child support for his three year old daughter. Now he was an old man and considered himself married to his job. More than a decade ago he got the opportunity  to study the Pyramids and he took that offer without hesitation.

Due to his excellence and friends in the right places he became the head of the exploration team and the local university supported him all the way by making him the head of the middle east excavation and exploration department. He loved the power that came with it and the respect.

But everything changed a month ago when out of nowhere he was told to stop his work and move. And if that wasn't enough, he was humiliated out of the country. He couldn't let this go. He wanted revenge.

And thus he called for the hit. He was now drinking as he already believed that he had won, right untill the moment he got a notification in his mobile.
