"SECURE THE ENTIRE AREA!!" Daniel roared to his mean. He had been like this the whole week. Tensed.

"Daniel."

"Any reports about where Martin is?" He asked his partner, Quen, who was standing next to him.

"No. The President sent their SWAT to track them down." Quen answered.

"Fck! I'm gonna kill that sht!" He cussed. Not untill then did he turn to find Julia standing behind Quen.

"What are you doing here? You should be in your room." Daniel tried to calm himself.

"Daniel, I'm scared." Julia whimpered. He quickly stood next to her and held her close.

"Don't be. I'm not letting him near you." He said soothingly. "Come, we must go." He held Julia's hand and they walked out of the room. "Quen, take over!"

"Daniel..." Julia called out from her bed.

"Yeah?" Daniel walked closer to hear her.

"I'm sorry you all have to go through this because of me..." She cried. She had been crying a lot lately. She was scared and all the emotions she tried to bottle up had been spilled.

Wanna know why? Because the demon had just escaped hell. Paul Martin escaped while the police were taking him back to the camp from the court. PAul's men stopped them and shot the police escorts. None died, luckly. But not without a bad price, they took PAul Martin with them.

"Hey.. hey.. sshhh." He sat down next to her on her bed and cupped her face. "Don't say that. It's our duty to protect people. To protect you."

"Sometimes I just really wish I died there you know. Because if I did, none of this would have happened."

"Stop. Stop it, now!" DJ yelled. "Don't do this to yourself. None of these men blames you for what is happening today."

"But---"

"STOP IT! You're ot the only who has matters with Paul Martin, Julia! He killed so many people! It's not your fault that we're here today and chasing after him."

"You are not chasing after him! We're all here just waiting for him to strike. To die!"

"WHAT'S UP WITH YOU?!" Daniel asked, shocked. "You're talking non sense. Those people out there? They are all fighting for the souls that man had cost. You? You're giving up! These people had not given up because they still believe in justice!"

"Fck it! Justice?! It has been three years and where is the justice now?! Out there" she pointed outside her window. "Just waiting in the shadows to have his final blow!"

"You're right. Maybe we cannot give them justice. But GOD will. Trust me, I know."

SILEEEENNNNCEEEEEEEE

"Agent Ford, you have been called to the office." Said a lady on his walkie.

"Copy that." He turned to Julia. "You stopped believing in Him, didn't you?"

She did not answer.

"My Dad was killed iin front of me Julia! And not once did I question GOD!" He roared. "You're not the one who suffered from great lost and sorrow." With that he left her room.

And Julia bursted into tears.

"WHAT?! WOAAHH. With alldue respect, sir. May I ask why?"

"You're assignment is done. I asked our SWAT to assign someone else. This is not your fight." The President answered.

"No! Paul Martin is on the lose and you want us to go?!"

"Tone, Agent." One of the Presidential guards warned.

"I'm afraid this case has been too personal for you..."

"That man killed my Father!! And there's no way in hell that I would just sit around and let him hurt the girl I love!"

The President was shocked, and so was he.

"I- I'm sorry Agent. It is not that I don't like you for my daughter. As I matter of fact, I do. But...." The President walked towards him and patted his shoulder. "You have served my family well, Agent."

Without another word the president left.

A Guard tried to stop DJ but he could not.

"Let me in!"

"But the PResident ordered..."

"WE ARE AT A FCKING WAR AND THERE ARE NO FRICKING ORDERS!" DJ roared as he pushed the man otut of his way. "I need to talk to that brat!!"

The guard cowered, intimidated by DJ's ferocious aura.

He stood a side and DJ pushed the door open.

"What are doing here? You're supposed to be..." Julia started.

"Gone?! Sht." He cussed. "I knew it! It was you!"

"DJ, you must go! LEave and spare your life! Quen will come with you, KAth already talked to Dad."

"That's the point Julia! We are not leaving!!" Quen suddenly bursted through the doors with Kath behind him.

"How did you even come up with this?!" Daniel demanded.

"THERE IS NO FCKING WAY THAT I'M LETTING YOU TWO DIE HERE WITH ME! IF YOU COULD TAKE MY SISTER, TAKE HERE WITH YOU!!"

"What? NO! I'm not leaving you!" KAth cried and ran to her.

"Nobody's leaving!" Quen announced.

"We're all in this together! We're not leaving you, especially when need us the most!" DJ added.

"So stubborn..." Julia muttered.

"Look who's talking." DJ shot back.

"Well, doesn't matter now. They're kicking you out of the palace in a minute." Julia smirked. Ever the devilish grin. -.-

"We may not be serving you as bodyguards anymore, but you are still our friends. And that's what friends do, protect each other." Quen smiled.

"And that's exactly what we're doing..." Kath shot and not a moment later, Carter came with his men. They held Daniel and Quen.

"What the fck?!"

"Agents, our duty is done. The Philippine Army is taking over now, time to go back home." Said Carter and with that they forced the two out of the room.

Daniel and Quen tried to fight but were taken over.

"Was that wise?" Kath could not help to ask her sister.

"I don't know..." Julia admitted.
