Liam grabbed the man by the neck.
"You've got 2 minutes so start talking" he commanded, face paved with seriousness and his eyes with rage.
"I swear, I don't know who she is". "she grabbed my daughter and told me only to stand right here for 5 minutes and she would return back to me".
"I swear, I don't mean any harm or negative intentions".
Liam stared at him, clenching his fist. "Well the did has been done". "That bitch kidnapped a friend of ours".
"I'm sorry, I really am," he begged. "If only I knew more about her, I swear I would have done anything to help,". "The only thing I remember was her long blond hair and blue eyes. And some sort of a scar on her cheek".
"Wait! Did you just say scar?" I questioned.
"Yes I did".
"Did she have a specifically odd physical character, like an action of some kind?"
"Uhh not that I can remember" he answered.
"Oh! but she did lick her lips weirdly".
My eyes grew wide.
"Shit!" I exclaimed.
"What is it Ethan?," "I feel you're holding out on us again" Liam questioned, letting go of the man's neck.
"It's what I've been trying to tell you guys".
"Come in quick".
immediately I held Mira by the hand, and ran inside.
"Gimme answers dude" Liam yelled puzzled with every move I made.
"It's the same group of people" I yelled. "The same set of organisations going on and on over again". "The Cyclops order" I claimed, researching through my laptop.
"This!" I admitted, showing them a picture profile on the screen.
"Ladies and gents I present to you "Agata Rieome"".
"One of the elite members of the Cyclops order".
They both stared at me confused.
"Dude what the hell is "a Cyclops order?"" Mia murmured.
"No not "a", "The"".
"Well according to my research, think of them as level 10 guardians in a game". "They were originally created during the early years of the apocalypse, or balance law and help the needy".
Liam sat on one of the chairs, gazing at the floor with his hand gently resting below his chin puzzled. "So if they are guardians, what are they guarding?" "And why kidnap a little girl?".
Mia stood up, "I guess we're about to find out". "Do they still exist?"
"Well...they were claimed to be disbanded a long time ago, but there wasn't any official statement". "Their base was at Alibama 3 years ago".
"Alibama? that's like an hour from here" Liam whispered.
"And it's also in the same area of the building we got chased in that other time" I whispered back.
Mia briefly cracked her neck.
"Good thing dad has a car". "I'm leaving right now".
"I'm coming too" Liam supported.
"Woah, dudes don't be crazy". "You seriously think you can walk in a military base?"
"You don't have to come" she commented.
"Are you kidding me, and miss out?"
"No but, think about this for a sec". "What ever may have taken Delina must have a high blood lust".
"What do you mean?" Liam asked.
"I mean if we are doing this, we can't go in blind".
"That's no issue" Mia said picking up her bat. "I've got a bat and an A is my martial arts class ".
"Yeah and I've got no grades, but an A+ in nurse dating".
"Doctor!" Mia corrected.
"I don't think it would be a good idea to go".
"Dude if you're scared just stay" Mia yelled walking outside towards her dad's car.
She then stepped in, igniting the engine.
Alright fine!
We entered droving off.
Distant from us, on top of the house roof was a beast observing, slowly crawled away.
The car zoomed off, arriving an hour later in front of a fence .
"This is a bad idea" I said pulling out a pair of big plier from the trunk.
"We gotta hurry up, it's almost sundown" Liam spoke about his observation.
I cut the wire fence and we crawled through.
Finding a way through the bushes into the building.
The tall 9 story building. Overtaken by grass and mosses. Destroyed in some regions, totally inhabitable by humans. What sort of clue would we find in here?-The obvious clearly stated in my head.
We reached the door front and Mia pushed it open.
A stream of repulsing odour flushed at our faces.
"What the hell" Liam whispered covering his nose.
"That should be the stench of a dead carcass".
"Hush!,"Mia yelled, focusing on her hearing. "do you hear that?"
"Hear what?" Liam whispered back.
"Mia!"
A faint feminine voice echoed from within.
"That Delina!" She yelled running in.
"Hey, wait a minute" I spoke aloud.
"Did you hear anything?".
"No I didn't" Liam answered puzzled. "But we should go after her".
We ran in the dark building. Switching on our phone flash lights.
Seeming we may have entered some sort of reception hall.
"Up there!" She commanded running towards a staircase possibly leading to the 2nd floor.
We immediately followed.
"20 dollars on we walking into a trap" Liam whispered in my ear.
"Dude it's obviously one, but Mia won't listen".
"Bull!" he negated. "Uhm Mia why don't we come back tomorrow, since we are sure she's here".
She stopped.
"What did you just say?" She asked staring at him. "I'm not leaving without my sister, you can feel free to leave".
Then she continued.
A ray of light gently shone across my face.
"Nani?" I whispered trying to shield my face from it.
It seemed to follow me.
"Uhh guys," I spoke out, totally unsettled by this shining light.
A scream blasted through the air.
Immediately we all stood alert, running into the second floor.
"Mia!"
A familiar feminine voice screamed.
We all looked up only to find Delina, tied up.
"Delina!" Mia yelled running to her. Liam instantly held her by the hand. "Stop he whispered".
"Hmmm, 3 little piggies"
A second feminine voice echoed from the shadows. Calm, seductive and soft, it pitched a perfect feeling of trust.
"Who are you?" Mia yelled, filled with rage.
"Now that's no way to talk to strangers my love"
"Oh you are really pretty" she added.
"Agata Rieome" I spoke out loud.
There was a brief silence.
"I haven't heard that name in a pretty long time" she expressed. "Did you actually do a bio on me? I hope you aren't crushing".
She giggled softly.
"She's in here!"
A masculine voice raged from downstairs.
"Visitors?" Agata whispered, her voice alluring and calm.
A small group of people, ran up the stairs. Torches and weapons in their hand. "Kill her" one for them yelled running into the darkness that enveloped Agata.
One by one, their voices grew faint on entry.
"What's going on?" I whispered, walking towards a wall switch I had noticed earlier.
"Ethan!" Liam whispered for my attention.
I immediately stretched forth my hand towards him, signaling to keep calm.
Then pulled up the switch.
The lights immediately came on, leaving us dumbfounded at the scene before us.
