##### Chapter 54 Last Mission
Detective Ashe, Eurisa and Khaila are in a dark room where they are arranging their worn clothes and boots. They also wear a bulletproof vest for their protection, then put the weapons and many bullets they will carry in their bags. Because today is the day they will finish the fight, they will go to Great Father's mansion to save Yoko.
Eurisa's voice broke the silence.
" Pagkatapos ba ng lahat ng ito ay makukulong na ang grupo ni Chocolate? Para kasing hindi tama, " her tone was heavy with uncertainty.
Khaila shook her head.
" We know all their stories. Is it really necessary for them to be imprisoned? " her words echoed with empathy, revealing a chasm between duty and morality.
" Huwag n'yo nga akong kino-konsensya, " Ashe snapped, her frustration simmering beneath the surface. " They committed a crime. The law is the law. "
Eurisa scoffed, her eyes blazing with indignation. " A law that can only be bought with money? Look at our situation, our own superiors have made fools of themselves with Great Father's money. We're the ones in danger, and they want to kill us. "
" Wala na tayong ibang pwedeng pagkatiwalaan ngayon kung hindi ang mga sarili lang natin, " Khaila added grimly, adjusting the heavy black backpack that held their tools of the trade. " No one wants to help. They're all afraid. "
Ashe remained silent, wrestling with the weight of their reality, the burden of her position as their leader hanging heavily in the air. She understood the complexity of their situation but felt the enormity of their task ahead.
" Let's go, " she finally said, her voice steady as she took the lead. They trudged forward, driven by purpose, papunta na sila sa bahay ni Yoko upang puntahan ang grupo ni Chocolate pagkatapos ay sabay-sabay na silang susugod sa mansyon ni Great Father.

***Yoko's House***
Travis stood at the door of Yoko's house, heart pounding in rhythm with the urgency coursing through him. Faye's cold glare could slice through tempered glass. " Travis, ano pa bang ginagawa mo rito? I'll make it clear to you, Yoko is my girlfriend! " her irritation punctuated the air, her voice taut as she adjusted the bulletproof vest over her black t-shirt.
" Please, Faye. Gusto kong sumama sa inyo sa pagligtas kay Yoko, " Travis pleaded, desperation lacing his words.
" Hindi ka pwedeng sumama, ano bang magagawa mo? Magiging pabigat ka lang sa 'min. "
" Sasama ako sa inyo sa ayaw at sa gusto n'yo, " he insisted, a spark of rebellion igniting in his chest.
" It's up to you. Basta't tandaan mo, huwag na huwag mo kaming sisisihin kapag namatay ka. "
Travis nodded, the determination hardening his features. " I won't blame any of you if something bad happens to me, " he accepted the weight of choice, the burden of potential sacrifice in this moment.
Faye shook her head, but she couldn't deny the spark of admiration the same fire that drove her in the line of duty now mirrored in her eyes. Just then, Midnight stepped forward, tossing a bulletproof vest at Travis with a grunt.
" Isuot mo 'yan, ewan ko ba naman kasi sa 'yo kung bakit gusto mo pang sumama, " Midnight said, then threw the gun and a handful of bullets at him.
" Do you know how to use that? "
" Y-yeah, " Travis stammered, still fumbling with the vest.
" Just make sure you don't die, " Midnight's flat tone indicated there would be no further discussion on the matter.
