[22 HOURS AFTER THE INCIDENT!]

It's almost a day and Mara is nowhere to be found, she is not traceable. Kervyn's men had searched the whole city and the town close by. He doesn't plan on calling the cops or any external team for their help, every hour that passes by it's like a terror to Kervyn, he wondered if Xiomara is ok. He is seated in the middle of a garage, staring at the dusty road. He was absent-minded that he didn't realise when Gedeon walked up to him.

"Kervyn!" Gedeon called three times but kervyn didn't turn. He touched kervyn's shoulders giving them a slight squeeze before pulling out a chair to seat beside him.

"[SIGHS] How long am I to wait?" He asked Gedeon. Gedeon smiled comfortably.

"I don't know, man"
~ " What does the time say?" Kervyn asked, pulling out a lighter from his pocket.

'It's 5,..." Gedeon tsked, drawing out cigarettes for kervyn. Kervyn's eyes widen in dismay.
~ "Cinco ? Por el amor de Dios, ella esta ahi afuera sola... tal vez muerta o amenazada y yo sentado aqui fumando...joder!" ("Five? For God's sake, she's out there alone...maybe dead or threatened and I'm sitting here smoking...Fuck!") Kervyn dropped the lighter to the floor and walked to the wall, looked at it and gave it a fierce punch. He groaned at the sting.

[GEDEON SIGHS] He takes out a cigarette and lit it, staring at his friend feebly. After a couple of outbursts, Kervyn sat back on his sit and snatched the cigarette from Gedeon and smoked it in annoyance.  They sat there quietly, listening to the quiet roads and rustling sounds of trees. The sound of footsteps approaching them made Gedeon turn, kervyn kept his gaze on the roads, and Dima rushed in with his track device.

"Boss! I think I have found where Mara is." Dima exclaimed. Kervyn didn't move, he just pulled out his hand for Dima to give him the tracker.

"There was a report from a salesman that he had seen two men with tattoos, dressed in suits and two ladies, one dressed in fine linens and the other bruised by the face..." Kervyn stood up immediately and stared at Dima. 

"Mara! That's Mara,...Xiomara!" He screeched happily. He told Dima to carry on with his research.
~ "And they are about to fly to Columbia... in three hours." Dima smiled.

"Joder, dos horas!" ("The fuck, two hours!") Let's go! Gedeon, send my men before me and Dima I need you to call for my Jet." Kervyn walked out of the room, dragging the pack of cigarettes.

[BUFFALO, NEWYORK CITY.]

[CHUGGING SOUND OF THE CAR ENGINE STOP.]

The car stopped in front of a gas station. Minato came down from the car and went to the back of the building away from the car and went behind the building away from the station for a smoke. Jiro fueled the car while Kei and Mara sat quietly in the car. Kei was so wrapped up in her make-up that while Mara thought of ways to escape, she looked around for anything she could use as her escape but her eyes fell on the shop by the gas station, she thought of an idea and smiled. 

"I would like to use the bathroom!" Mara said, staring at Kei through the rearview mirror. Kei blinked and continued with her painting. 

"I said I want to use the washroom!" She repeated but this time with a forced smile and patience. Kei dropped her blush brush and turned to face Mara with an irritated look.

"And what should I do about it?... Uh!" Mara tried opening the door then Kei punched her hard in the face. She laughed at her and jumped down the car waiting for Mara to do the same. Mara walked behind Kei as they entered the shop. The doorbell rang when they walked in, the shop belonged to an old man in his assumed late sixties. He smiled when he saw them approach him.
