Please, Don't!

This is too far. You're going too far!" I shouted at Director Supot.

No words can describe what I'm feeling now. I can feel my tears flowing like a river on my face. This sick bastard should be in jail, no, executed.

He almost killed Korn.

He manipulated Punn.

He damaged my relationship with Wave.

Just for fucking power.

"Chaos is a trap for ordinary people, but it's a ladder for people who are smart enough." Supot started. " Even a senior whom you respect switched sides to help me in the end. Therefore, you should also give up."

No, I can't give up. I promised everyone victory will be ours. I can't let Namtarm's sacrifice go to waste. I can't let Time almost committing suicide for us go to waste. I can't let-

"Pawaret, I'll give you one more chance, join me into creating the world I see." the Director said, as he started walking towards me.

I started moving backward until I heard the door open.

It's Ohm.
And Ohm is the last person I see before I'm knocked out.

When I woke up, I didn't feel any ropes around my body. You would think, if you got kidnapped, the kidnapper would tie you up so you cannot escape. I slowly got on my feet and checked my surroundings. I'm in the warehouse the Director took me to yesterday. What's going on? Why am I here? Is everyone else okay? Is Wave okay? I started panicking. What if he got to them? What if he injects him with NYX-88? I need to get out of here, now.

I start walking quickly to the exit, but then I hear someone call my name behind me.

"Pawaret, did you think you can just wake up and leave like you own this place?" the Director spoke to me.

"What are you going to do to me." I asked, restraining myself from punching him. I don't have time for this.

I need to make sure they're safe.

I need to make sure he's safe.

"It's not what I'm going to do to you, it's what he's going to do." the Director spoke with that satanic smile of his. "Bring him in."

I looked at the exit door, and the realization hit me like a truck. Please, not him. Anyone but him.

I heard Wave's screams of protest as he was brought into the room with two guards carrying him. He looked like he was in horrendous pain, with his puffy cheeks and red eyes. I felt my hands form a fist instantly, whoever did this to him will feel my wrath the second we get out of here.

"Put him down." the Director instructed.

The guards hesitantly put him down, scared he was going to run again. Wave just stood, staring straight at me with a look of fear and guilt in his eyes.

"Why is he here? Your only issue is me, leave him out of this!" I shouted at the Director. I don't care what he does to me. Heck, he can even stab me right now for all I care, but I will not let him hurt Wave. Anyone but him.

"He's not going to be injured Pawaret." the Director replied, walking towards Wave with a sinister smile on him. "How can he be injured, if he himself is doing the injuring?"

Wait. What?

All of a sudden, Supot's hand is on Wave's shoulder, and he's looking at him while Wave is staring right back at him, with tears in his eyes.
