HUNTER

Two days have passed since Dylan and Seiko saved me from Gideon's hand. I am lying in bed while reminiscing about what happened to my body. Time flies fast, and I still couldn't believe that many of my colleagues chose to stab my back.

"Hunter, consider limiting your movement because your wound is still quite fresh. Just lay down and let us help you. Hunter, please. You're making us worried. You will get your energy back eventually, but for now, you need to stop pushing yourself so hard," Seiko begged me to listen to him.

When I did some searching, I found that the person I was looking for wasn't at this place, and I couldn't help but feel anxious about it. I stood in my bed and approached Seiko, who had a look of slight worry at that moment.

"Where exactly is my sister, Seiko? Please let me know where Mariel is because I will never be able to forgive myself if something terrible happens to her. Seiko, answer me! Where can I find her? Is she safe? Have you rescued her from the hands of Gideon? Fuck!" I yelled at him.

He grabbed my shoulder and tried to calm me down. He looked directly into my eyes, and I couldn't explain why I was beginning to feel more at ease in reacting to how he was looking at me. My body felt a momentary sense of peace.

"Hunter, you don't have to worry because Mariel is safe. Dylan took him to the hospital to make sure she was in good condition. Calm down, please. Everything is settled. Just rest," Seiko assured me.

Because of what he said, for a split second, every nerve and muscle in my body was completely relaxed. Even though I am aware of how terrible Dylan is, I am thankful to him for the fact that he is looking out for my sister. That maniac!

"Where is Gideon? They must prepare for me because by the time I regained my strength, I wouldn't think twice about killing them. Fuck those sex addicts! I will kill them!" I yelled out while clenching my fist as tightly as I could.

My plans were temporarily cut off when we suddenly heard a loud sound outside. While Seiko and I were looking at the door, Dylan suddenly slammed it in our faces. I couldn't help but wonder what had gotten to him because he struggled to gather his breath.

"Seiko, I've received bad news! We must move quickly to prevent them from taking her life at any moment. Leave Hunter first because his body is not in the right condition. We need to hurry!" Dylan worriedly said.

Because of what he said, all of a sudden, I had the feeling that someone was gripping my heart. Although they wanted me to stay in bed and recover, I got up and approached Dylan right away. But all of a sudden, I had pain in my ankle, even though I hadn't fully stood up. Fuck!

"Hunter, you shouldn't put more pressure on yourself because you simply can't. Dylan and I were going to handle this problem. Just relax there. We will update you as quickly as possible," Seiko assured me.

Seiko quickly pushed my body down onto the bed while standing up. As a result, I had no choice but to lie down there. He gave me a hard look, but it didn't frighten me, so Dylan broke the silence with a remark.

"Do you seriously want me to discuss what I know with you? Hunter, we're going to save Trinity because her life is in danger. She needs help, so stop what you are doing. Every second is important, so just rest in that fucking bed, and we will handle this," Dylan exclaimed, leaving me in awe.

The passing of time slowed down for me, and Trinity was the only thing going through my head. She had become less prominent in my thoughts earlier because my anxiety for Mariel had dominated more. Fuck! How can I forget the woman I love? Shit!

"Maybe what you've heard is enough. Stay here because you are going to be a distraction in our mission. If you want Trinity to be saved, let us do it," Seiko explained one last time.
