We were all already infront of Toman's headquarters. We were walking really quickly,clearly in a hurry. I didn't even know if Reino had done his job with the hacking thing,we were all just trying to get the message across to Rose.

We entered the building and I went to the security.

"Excuse me,can you tell where Rose's room is?" I asked him.

"Family name?" He asked.

Suddenly I was dumbfounded.

"I-uh...I don't-"

"Messenger." Sokolo replied. Me and Chifuyu looked at him confused.

They must've been really close to her to know her family name. My head shot back at the security.

"Room 1015." He replied and looked at us with a smile.

"Thanks!" I replied and walked towards the elevator.

I pressed the 10th floor and we all waited awkwardly as the music played.

Soon we exited the elevator and the three of us,one after another,followed Chifuyu who was leading. I was just hoping the assassins hadn't found her already. My heart began beating really quickly as we neared the door and finally Chifuyu opened the door loudly as he bursted into the room. I followed right behind him only to see her laying in bed and looking at her phone. Her head snaped at us.

"What the hell are you-" her voice died when her eyes landed somewhere behind us.

I looked at Sokolo and Reino who closed the door behind them and went inside the room and stood next to us. I looked back at her and quickly realised that something wasn't right.

"Hi,Rose." Reino said.

Suddenly she got up from her bed and charged towards the table on the other side of the room.

Towards her gun.

Sokolo quickly pointed his gun at her,followed by Reino. Rose stopped in her steps.

What on earth was going on?!

My heart began beating super quickly as I tried to think.

"Sokolo,what are you doing?" I asked him.

He looked at me.

"Trust me,we don't want to hurt anybody,we just want to talk to her,but we know her better. She wouldn't listen." He replied like a know-it-all.

"I think I've heard that before." Rose said in a dark voice as she was staring at them.

Suddenly it clicked.

Were they the ones who killed someone she loved?

But they seemed close.

Am I forgetting something?

"Put the guns down." I demanded as I stepped closer to them looking at them with deadpan serious expression on my face.

Sokolo looked at me and then fully faced me.

Before the gun was pointed at my head.

My breath hitched.

"Rose,just sit down on the bed." Sokolo said to her,not taking his eyes off of me.

Rose looked at me and Chifuyu and then slowly she walked towards the bed and sat down.

Sokolo didn't take his gun off of me,nor did Reino take his gun off of Rose as he moved past her. His gun being pointed in the same point all the time. Not at her head,but somewhere around the area her shoulders.
