*THIS CHAPTER INCLUDES VIOLENCE WHICH MAY BE DISTURBING TO SOME READERS.*

Ella ran her eyes around her surroundings, and her eyes met Isla’s who had a questioning look. Ella blinked her eyes multiple times simultaneously and Isla nodded her head in reply.

She looked back at them. Marcus, Tyler, Austin and their members were in the bus. The girls were at the back.
'Probably like refreshment for them.'

Ella frowned and took her eyes away from them. She looked down at Gab who was kinda unconscious. Ella gave a sneaky look at Tyler and when she noticed that none of them were looking at them, she stretched her hand towards Gab and tapped him.

“Are you okay?” She whispered.

Gab looked at her, his eyes were drowsy and tired. He gave a smirk, “I've gone through worse. I'm okay.”

“WHAT THE HELL?!”

Tyler’s loud voice made them flinch away from each other. Tyler strode towards them, he bent down and stared at Ella, “no f**king talking in the bus.”

Ella kept quiet but her eyes were sharp as she glared back at him. Tyler hissed and walked away after giving Gab a glare. Gab turned to her and raised his hand, he thumbed up and smirked. Ella smiled in return.

Vons frowned at the look on Alarick’s face but he remained silent and entered the room where Minister Curtis was. “I hope it was okay, Sir.” He hesitated as Curtis looked at him.

“Yes.” Curtis stood up on his feet and smiled, “Comrade Vons, please make sure this mission will be successful. Take care, I will leave now.”

“Okay, sir,” Vons raised his hand to his forehead as he saluted.

‘It's been almost like 20 minutes since the bus stopped and we were moved inside the building. It looks like an airport but I've never seen one like this. We are actually in a room just doing nothing but sitting down on the floor and probably waiting... Waiting for what thou? Although, I want to do something. I can't wait anymore.’

“I want to use the bathroom.”

Marcus, Tyler and Austin turned back and stared at Ella. Tyler hissed with an annoyed look on his face, he strode towards her, “just shut your f**king mouth up.”

“Let her go use the bathroom. That’s the least you can do here!” Isla bickered with annoyance on her face.

“Shut the f**k up,” Tyler hissed at Isla. He strode to her with anger on his face and he raised his hand to hit her.

“Actually.” Marcus started making Tyler to pause on his actions and he glanced at Marcus instead. “That’s the least we can do. Let the ladies do their thing, one after the other,” he paused and the smile on his face fell off, “Because after now, there is no more using the bathroom.”

“Alexa and Tara, take her to the bathroom.” Austin replied. He threw a sharp look at the ladies that stood up. They nodded in reply and walked to Ella, they pulled her up and dragged her away.

Ella glanced at Isla and nodded her head.

Vons walked back to the room, he pierced his eyes on Alarick who was standing beside Steve, and Vons frowned.

‘I'm not a curious person but that similar look on their face was too suspicious for me to look away.’

Emilio jumped from his chair, “gosh, I'm hungry,” he walked past Vons and out of the room.

Vons took a breath and walked towards Alarick, “what about the Tyler guy, Chase? What's he doing?”

Alarick looked away from the paper in his hand and back to Vons, “he is at the custody for a while. We need him to sit still,” Alarick frowned and eyed Vons, “I already told you.”

Vons gave an awkward smile, “oh, really? These days I've been forgetting easily because we’ve been so busy,” he laughed awkwardly.

Alarick remained quiet and he bobbled his head.

“WE HAVE EYES ON HER, SIR!”

= = =

‘They are behind me now.’

Ella looked behind her from her side eye.

“Get in.”

Ella looked back at them and nodded. She entered the restroom and closed the door behind her. She walked into one of the bathroom and closed the door.

‘What do I do now? I need to find something that can alert someone... Even though it's not him.’

She looked up and frowned. “I need to find a CCTV.” She mumbled.

Tara hissed with annoyance and slapped her hand on the door, “Ain't you done?”

Alexa stopped her with a hiss, “don’t do anything to cause attention. Go in instead.”

Tara glared at her and walked inside the bathroom. The tap on the sink was switched on. She closed the door behind her and with a frown on her face, she said, “time to go, girl.”

Tara frowned as no one replied, she hissed with anger and a mix of anxiousness and she walked to the bathrooms, she pushed the door opened, one by one. Then it was remaining the last, she smirked and took a step; she pushed the door open. But something came flying to her face. A stainless toilet brush was slammed to her face. She lost her balance and fell down. Ella jumped on her and stuffed the brush into her mouth to silence her. Tara yelled although, her scream was muffled. Tara tried to push her away but she was stronger. Then, Tara pushed her away and Ella fell down letting go of the brush.

“You b*tch!!” Tara hissed with anger and lunged at her. Ella rolled over, and picked up the stainless toilet brush and threw it at her and she fell over again. Ella pushed her into the bathroom and she fell down on the space between the water closet and the wall. Ella closed the door and locked it. She picked a mop and stuffed it under the door handle to prevent her from opening the door.

She let out a huff as Tara couldn’t open the door. She picked up the toilet brush and strode to the door. She glanced at the sink, the water was overflowing and now pouring on the floor. She let out a breath and opened the door.

“What is taking you so long-” Alexa looked back only to be hit by the brush. She screamed with disgust and fell back. Ella didn’t care less, she sprinted away.

= = =

“We have eyes on her, Sir!”

Alarick’s eyes widened and he looked away from Vons with panic in his eyes, he sprinted away from Vons and to the comrade. “Where is she?”

The comrade glanced at Vons first and Vons replied with a nod, and then, he replied, “she is at the under-port.”

“Is she the only one there? Not even Gab or her sister?” Alarick asked again.

“Marcus too?” And Emilio added.

“Erm. From the scene here, we can only see the Ella Jones and not anybody else,” the comrade replied as he stared from the desktop to them.

“They won't be too far,” Vons added and he looked down at the monitor and pointed, “It looks like she is being followed by those ladies. And that means that they are not far away.”

“Let's start going then,” Emilio picked up his bag, “that’s the opportunity to catch all of them at once.”

Vons looked back at Alarick and nodded, “let's go.”
