I stared ahead of me. I felt the continuous pulsing pain in my arms and legs. I rested my head on the vent, letting out a rasped breath. Everything hurt. Even after a few days of resting, my body was sore. I periodically felt something burn within my abdomen; it was because of the scissors Morro brutally impaled my internals with. But I didn't have time. Whatever Seliel and Morro were planning was about to happen soon. I wanted to know everything I could before it happened.

"Number six to twenty should be surrounding the basement floor." Seliel put her right leg over her left. She wiggled her white toes on the sheets of her bed, resting her head on the pillow. "You're my number one man. It'd be a shame if you end up like 002." She put her hands over her stomach, her white crop top crumpling beneath her fingers.

I watched her rock her legs side to side, admiring the silver chains on her white thigh-high shorts. She had cute clothings. Too cute for an ugly personality.

001 hadn't come today to take me and Cole to the washroom. I looked through the grille at the guard I was familiar with, understanding why 003 had assisted us instead. And since he was new to this job, he didn't know he didn't have to be so violent anymore. He pushed and pulled me beyond what my weakened body could take, making some of my wounds hurt all over again. He even hit the muzzle of the gun on Cole's head twice just to get him out of the cell. Poor Cole. He must have had a horrible time with him. He probably peed his pants even before he reached the washroom.

"Keep only the front two doors open. The emergency one shouldn't be open even if there is an emergency." The blonde haired girl looked at her light blue nails.

"You don't need to worry about the prisoners anymore." Morro rolled his chair side to side, staring at the guard.

I flinched, a sweat drop hitting the metallic floor of the vent as I remembered Morro's breathing on my neck.

I did not want to think about it. I only came here to get intel and my only focus should have been listening to their conversation.

I lowered my head, putting my forehead in my hands as my digits covered my eyes. Waves of shivers trickled down my spine, tickling every piece of bone in my back. The wind blowing from above me wasn't helping to stop the shuddering either.

"I want things to go smoothly, 001."

I wiped the sweat on my forehead, looking back through the grille at Seliel.

She looked back at 001, freezing his heart with her icy cold eyes. She sighed, looking at the ground for a moment while she thought. "Oh, Morro, do you have the guest list prepared?"

"Yeah. Mason just gave it to me a while back." Morro pulled out his phone, opening something which I assumed was the list. "It seems fine." He leaned forward, lifting his hips off of the chair to give Seliel the phone.

"Hmm." She leaned forward too, taking the device.

Whatever they were planning for seemed very important. A guest list, huh? It sounded like those huge mafia parties in movies which the government was completely unaware of.

"Once twelve thirty hits the clock, all floors should be locked except B1, B2 and the first floor." Seliel scrolled through the screen, scanning all the names. "No elevators should be going higher than the ground floor either."

"And the buyers." Morro raised his hand to remind Seliel.

My eyes blinded by the white light shining off of his Fossil watch as he did.
