[b][i][u]Location: Spring Zone - Lilina's House[/u][/i][/b]

[i]The noises made it clear: whatever was happening outside wasn't good. This wasn't also a good time for them to stay here.[/i]

Lilina: W-What's going on?!

Masaru: We're being attacked! We need to run!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/b7F2Hy2.png[/img]
Lilina: B-But to where?! And what about Kail?!

Masaru: I don't know, but here's not a good place to stay, Lilina!
Drake: Hey, you two!!

[i]When they looked at the window from behind them, Drake went in, already armed.[/i]

Lilina: Drake!

Drake: C'mon, let's get out of here! I'll take you all somewhere safe!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/X4C5YDC.png[/img]
Masaru: Wait, we can't leave Sir Kail behind like this!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/sv2VMmY.png[/img]
Lilina: It's all my fault... if it wasn't this curse living inside me...
[img]https://i.imgur.com/L9rqNd6.png[/img]
Drake: Now's not the time for you to lament! We need to hide you and fast!

[i]Lilina gave one last glance at the door, worried about Kail. She didn't want to leave him behind, but she had no choice other than running.[/i]

Lilina: ... It might trap us, but we have no choice other than the basement. It's the only place I can see for me to hide.

Drake: You're worried about that guy, right? I know he's going to be OK.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/M2IDcm7.png[/img]
Lilina: I hope so... he has to be...!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/eA0a4Jh.png[/img]
Masaru: Let's go downstairs then! Hurry!

[i]Lilina, Masaru and Drake went quickly downstairs as the fighting noises seemed to increase. They were surrounded, so the best option was to fake that Lilina could've escaped somewhere, since Drake left the window open.[/i]

[b][i][u]Location: Spring Zone - Sayaka's House[/u][/i][/b]

[i]Sayaka was terribly frightened. The memories from the day where she was almost kidnapped began to torture her again as she trembled in fear.[/i]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/lLZSoyz.png[/img]
Sayaka: N-No... not this again... am I going to be captured, just like this?!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/Q8rprMu.png[/img]
Sayaka: M-Miss Rosa... I'm so worried... and scared... I need to call help!

[i]She picked her cellphone and ran immediately to her room. She locked the doors and the windows and quickly dialed Veronica's number.[/i]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/ZZWiHb7.png[/img]
Sayaka: (Please, Veronica, pick up! Please...! Please!!)

[b][i][u]Location: Spring Zone - Intermezzo Mansion[/u][/i][/b]

[i]As Veronica still watched over Bloo, her phone began to ring. It was Sayaka.[/i]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/FkIKlzW.png[/img]
Veronica: Hi, Sayaka! How's it going-
Sayaka: [i]V-Veronica, I'm being attacked! By the same guys from before!![/i]
[img]https://i.imgur.com/4n6qtfT.png[/img]
Veronica: No way! Sayaka, are you alright?!
Sayaka: [i]I locked myself into my room, but I don't know for how long I'll stay safe!! Veronica, I need help!! I'm scared...!! I don't know what to do!![/i]
[img]https://i.imgur.com/TgBjAZ6.png[/img]
Veronica: D-Don't worry, I'll call for help! Please, hang on tight!
Sayaka: [i]*sob* Please, hurry!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIEEEEEEEEEEEE-[/i] *call turns off*
[img]https://i.imgur.com/UPXcEED.png[/img]
Veronica: Sayaka?! Sayaka!!

[i]She tried to call her, but no response came from Sayaka. Veronica started to get desperate herself.[/i]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/SKiI0AK.png[/img]
Veronica: (I need to call someone! Maybe Big Bro...! Wait, if he gets into this, he'll get caught! There has to be someone else...)

Veronica: (... I hate to do this, but they're my only hope...!!)

[b][i]Location: Spring Zone - Alice's House[/i][/b]

[i]Loud thunders could be heard from the window, which seemed as if the rain would fall even stronger. Alice went to the local market, so only the brothers were at home. Soon, Marina's phone started ringing.[/i]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/3xK7Mbp.png[/img]
Marina: Marina speaking.
Veronica's Voice: [i]Marina!! Marina!![/i]
[img]https://i.imgur.com/4CNGJSh.png[/img]
Marina: Veronica? Is something wrong?
Veronica's Voice: [i]It's Sayaka!! She's being attacked!![/i]
[img]https://i.imgur.com/jqyoftR.png[/img]
Marina: What?! Sayaka is being attacked?!

[i]Upon hearing his sister, Xaizor hurried and took the phone from her hand.[/i]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/ybEVz8e.png[/img]
Xaizor: Veronica?! What the hell happened?!
Veronica's Voice: [i]The terrorists are attacking again!! They got Sayaka!! She just called to me right now and-[/i]
[img]https://i.imgur.com/6qV6ikh.png[/img]
Xaizor: Then the thunder we heard earlier...!!
Veronica's Voice: [i]I don't know what to do!! I don't want to call Big Bro or the others on this! Please, I need you to help Sayaka!![/i]

[i]Her desperate plea made Xaizor throw Marina's phone on the couch and he quickly went to the door.[/i]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/MZy8PIf.png[/img]
Marina: Xaizor, where are you going?!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/ZMWVWGL.png[/img]
Xaizor: I'm going after Sayaka! I'm rescuing her before it's too late!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/vxiyQ0o.png[/img]
Marina: But Miss Rayla just said-
[img]https://i.imgur.com/vBu3sm4.png[/img]
Xaizor: To hell with what Rayla said!! If she wants to pick a fight with me later, I don't give a damn!! I'm saving that girl and you're not stopping me!!

[i]Not even taking an umbrella, Xaizor left to Sayaka's house. Marina looked to the window, only to see a trail of smoke rising from one of the buildings at a short distance.[/i]

Marina: Sayaka...
