Silhouette

"I'll go upstairs first, I'll try to find a private room there," Flame said weakly as he adjusted his belt.

Athelia helped him put the guns on that belt.

"Pow Pow, where are you?" I asked Chios.

"Don't worry, he's with Third. Third just went up to the room for a while to get the car key. He assigned me and Alpha to take care of the cars. We'll be ready to go when we confirm the suspicion," his long explanation.

I nodded before inserting the hairpin. I also placed two guns on either side of me.

We turned up the stairs when we saw Third while Pow Pow was working. "We need to move fast, the mayor went out for some transactions."

Even in the dark I could see Pow Pow's slightly look up at me.

"Ate?" he calls me.

I approached the two of them and Third while the rest of our group was preparing.

"He keeps on calling your name," Third said softly.

I took Pow Pow from him, and the boy immediately hugged me.

"Are you feeling bad, Pow?" I was worried , I asked.

He shook his head. "I just want to see you and brother Third together."

I got a poker face in no time, accompanied by the laughter of the two of them and Third.

"I'm going to kick you young, eh. You've said a lot before, kiss me!" asar na saad ko.

He immediately kissed me on the cheek before pointing at Third. "She too, kiss."

My eyes widened. Third teasingly raised an eyebrow as if teasing.

"Stop me! We still have work to do!" I answer immediately.

The mixture on his face went up and then Pow Pow took me away. "I'll take care of him."

"What if there's a fight? It'll be hard for you to fight because he's from you, it's just me," I refused.

He looked at me seriously. "I can handle him more than you can, Silhouette."

My eyes rolled, laughing as I scratched my nape.

"Of course, you're the boss. I'm sorry, sometimes I forget you're the boss, there are times when I'm better than you, you know," I boasted.

He patted my forehead before kissing it. "We need to move, baby, zip your smart mouth for an hour."

I frowned and was annoyed to walk away from him. Miraculously, he didn't take me with him now, Perzeus and Thunder were with him.

Athelia and Caspeia walked towards me. "We need to back up Flame, she's the one in charge of finding the secret room here. We'll serve as her guide."

I nodded as they looked at Third. "What will the three men do?"

"To back us up," Caspeia replied smiling.

"Huh? Flame and I backed up and then we backed them up as well? I wish they were just in our place, then we just had coffee in the kitchen," I replied annoyed.

They both laughed. Athelia messed up my hair. "You're really cute! Ofcourse, they'll be watching outside the mansion. Maybe the mayor will come suddenly, and there will be a lot of alarms here. Maybe something more will happen when the other body guards notice what we're doing."

I nodded. "By the way, I thought they used to chutchut trains, eh. What, it's a game."

They nodded so we followed Flame up.

"Third, he told me that this device can detect the direction of a room without too much air entering or exiting. I mean, that room is hidden and only technology can make it work. I'm sure that's the room we're referring to, "Flame explained as he walked.

I looked around to see if anyone else was watching us, it looked like nothing.

We could not gather in one place because it was dangerous, we would not know if anyone was coming or if there was a guard in the security room.

"Caspeia, you just watch over Flame. Athelia, go to the security room. Make sure no one else can enter there. The securities are still awake, they're just roaming around," I whispered.

Athelia and Caspeia saluted in response. Caspeia and Flame walked first while Athelia went in the other direction.

Without a footstep I walked around the hallway to serve as a look out. I immediately hid in a corner with passable security.

It was going in the direction where Flame and I were walking, so when he passed me, I immediately pulled him by the hair.

He was about to make fun of me but I kicked him hard in the face.

I also banged his head on the wall before squeezing him into the farthest corner of this hallway, where no one could see him.

I quickly walked away and still watched. But it seemed strange again because I had yet to meet the beautiful python.

"Why are you still up?" the question raised an eyebrow at me.

"Pake you?" my answer.

"You're suspicious, darling, tell me, are you planning to steal?" His voice rose a bit so I was alarmed.

"If I were just a thief, I would be you are the best thief and you are the worst thief, "I replied.

She couldn't believe she laughed. "I really hate your guts! The thickness of your face!"

"Please let me know if you see someone with a thin face, tell me how I greet him, just favor bitch," I said without emotion.

"What? Me, a bitch?" he asked incredulously.

"Yeah, you look like a dog with an itch," I said directly.

He was stunned. "Of all the animals, I am the most beautiful!"

I remained unresponsive. "Of all the animals, you are the only aƄimal," I sternly promised.

She was about to slap me when suddenly the whole area shook. The woman in front of me fell to the floor but I was able to balance myself so I remained standing.

"I knew it! There's a plan- Ahh!"

I didn't finish this woman, I was teasing her to fall down the stairs. Very noisy.

I immediately ran in the direction where an explosion occurred. I heard flames rushing behind me.

He handed over the files he had retrieved. "Confirmed, they're really doing an underground business."

Napamura ako. "Come on, tangina, we might be bombed here later."
