I saw as he took out the gun and shot.Before i had time to react,he shot a clear shot at me.I had no time to check for my injuries before the street erupted into chaos.

"Zuo hang..get to the company fast..i'll stay with Zeyu.I need you to get in and stay there.Call the authorities and make sure you are protected."i began to order.

"But-"he was cut off as i let go of him and he was dragged by the crowd.

"What now."Zeyu said with a serious face.

I looked at him with a look of pity before i snapped back to seriousness.A kid his age shouldnt have to deal with this but then again..i am his age.

"Zeyu..stay close."I said as i twisted corners.I immediately wore my glasses that had China mapped out.

Right turn in the different corners..step one..lose him.

I bit on my pen,transforming it into a anesthetic dart shooter.

"One shot,Zeyu.Tell me when he's close."

I proceeded to lead him past alleyways.

"He's behind."

I turned around.We were close to the company but we were also way too close to the shooter for comfort.He was taking aim at Zeyu.

"Zeyu i need you to run into the company and stay with Zuo Hang.Run in a random motion..dont let him take aim.I'll join you."

With that i let go of his hand,stopping as he ran on.I turned around to face the guy.He didnt stop and i had to tackle him.

Quickly disarming him,i was trying to pin him to the ground.Unfortunately,he was stronger than me and easily broke free.I immediately stabbed the anesthetic pen into his rib but it took so long to work.He was a rather large man in all honesty and it would take a while for the anesthetic to travel.

"Who are you?Who do you work for?Why are you here?"I yelled.

He suddenly flipped me over and my head hit some crates and bled.

"What the-"i could barely finish before the first punch was delivered to my gut.I clenched my stomach in pain.He tried to reach out for his gun but i grabbed his leg and pulled him back.

He finally collapsed as the anesthetic finally worked its way.

My breath was ragged as i saw black dots.

The last i saw was a figure who came to pick me up before i passed out.

"Get lost."i mumbled off before passing out.

"Is she okay?"a voice said.

"Why didnt you take her to the hospital?"Another one asked.

"She looks dead."

"I'm not dead..thank you very much."I said as i sat up.The lights blinding my vision.

"Where am i?"i asked

"TF entertainment."Zeyu said.He was the closest one to me.

"What happened to the man?"i asked.

"The authorities took him."Zuo Hang said.

"Who on earth was that?!"He asked madly."You could've gotten hurt."

"I am hurt."i replied.

"We wanted to check but you are a girl.."one of them meekly replied.

"You are?"

"Mu Zhicheng."

"Thanks..but in life or death crisis,gender no longer matters..anyways,there's a bullet lodged somewhere and i think it's probably in my arm.My head is pounding and probably has a cut..and i got beaten up pretty badly."

"Tsk..you shouldn't have just let me go like that..i could've helped and you wouldn't be like that."Zuo Hang said angrily as he stormed over.

Though he was mad,he still showed concern and checked out the injuries,helping me to wrap and stitch them up because i couldn't go to the hospital and blow my cover.

The trainees had slowly trickled out to continue with their schedules and soon it was just me,Zuo Hang and Zeyu left in silence

"Why?"Zuo Hang asked suddenly.

"Why what?"i replied.

"Why'd you let me go?"

"You could've gotten hurt..those people are not ordinary..they're train to kill and only to kill and you aren't trained."

"Well neither are you.Even if you've been trained,you're still our age.Someone who's meant to have a childhood and not one train to kill and protect."he said with a look of disgust.

I carefully got up from lying down.

"What are you-"Zuo Hang said.

I cut him off."Look i chose this path.I chose it myself because there are people out there in the world who can't protect themselves.I am okay with risking my life but i am not okay with others risking it for me..it's not worth it.Don't even try to talk me out of it because i won't."I said getting up angrily as i dragged myself out of the room and signalling Zeyu to go.

Zeyu could only give a shrug to Zuo Hang as he followed me out.

The butterflies in my stomach appeared.
