(Sarah)

I got myself out from hiding. I sighed. "whow.. I swear.. that was so close.."

"sorry about that.. hehehhh.." he sat down at Jessica's bed, tired.

I came closer to him. "so what happened??.. any news about Red?.."

"I'm afraid I got none.." he fixed his shoes "those fellows are masters in what they're doing.."

"so I need to hide in here, still, huh.."

He looked at me and made a charming smile. "we'll figure this out.. let's just be patient.."

"I'm almost on my limits, prince.."

He lowered his head and thought of something. He must have been overworking his brain this past few days.. I wonder.. what can I do?... I started this whole thing.. why am I not doing anything now?..

"hey.." I called him "Red is after me.. I got the feeling that he still wanted to take my life.."

He smiled "yeah.. that's why I'm hiding you.."

"what if I show myself to him?" I suggested

He got surprise "w-what?"

I looked serious and explained clearly. "look.. after all the trouble I've cause Red and the whole gang, I'm sure when they gets the chance they'll kill me!.. what if I show myself to them voluntarily.. that way, the whole gang will show up!! That way they'll come out from hiding!! That way, you and all the forces against them can catch them!"

His brows narrowed. "you want yourself to be a bait?!!"

"yeah!"

"and you think I'm gonna let you do it?!" he stood and walked to the window, mad.

"w-what the problem with it? I'm an expert criminal.. I'm skilled, I'm fast. And besides, you and your men are going to attack them after they show themselves.. I see nothing's wrong with that plan.."

"you want to be a bait?" Jessica shockingly showed up...

"Jessica.." how did you get in here without letting us realize.?.

She put down her bag and sat in the bed. "with your condition? Two wounds, weak body?.. you think that's not dangerous?!"

"I'm fine now, princess.. my body's not weak.."

"Oh really?" she raised an eyebrow and then rolled her eyes

Jericho walked to the door. "I'm tired.. please excuse me.." he went outside. What's the matter with him?

"ahh~" Jessica stood and followed his brother in annoyance.

I was left alone.
