I woke up in the middle of the night, cause of Hunger so I walk to the food court near the rooms as I passed I heard the guards talking, one of them said " you think they're the ones " the other replied " forget that, they found the girl, the one that could possibly be the cure ", immediately they turn and notice me looking at them, one of them says " what are you looking at? " I just got up from the table I was sitting and walked back to my room and fell asleep again.
I woke later in the afternoon and surprisingly there was no training today, I sat up and saw Ethan entering the room, Ethan came to me and said " what's up bro, you sleep well ", I nodded while rubbing my eyes, leo also entered with Minna, Minna smiled at me and asked if I was OK, I nodded again and got off the bed " so there's no training today " said leo, Ethan replied " yeah and it's awesome just to have fun and be free for once "
Sonya walked in and said " think again, my dad just told me to call all the group leader ", I groaned In annoyance as I got up and took a quick shower and changed, I followed Sonya to the meeting place, but when we got there, there was no one, " where is everyone " I said,  she replied " there's no one, I just needed to talk to you in private ", I replied " OK you could have  just simply said ralph I wanna talk to you ", she just shrugged and continued walking round, then I said " what you wanna talk about ", she replied " last night I overheard a few soliders talking about a cure for this virus " I nodded as she continues "they said someone about Minna, the girl you saved recently ", I replied " yeah I heard the same thing with 2 guys but they saw me as I was eavesdropping on them, so what do we do " she replied " well I'll ask my dad about it, then I'll get info for you, meanwhile go and alert your group while I'll alert mine " after the conversation she left, while I went back to find my teammates and Minna, I found them in the food court and told them, as I was talking I saw the same guards of last night watching my every move, I told them we should go to the room as we were about going, skater bumps into me and says " watch where you're going idiot ", leo asks me " aren't you gonna do something ", I replied " I don't have time for lowlifes like him ", skater hears me and turns back and pushes me, I slowly get angry but I calmed down and said " look I ain't got......." I was cut short by a punch I received from skater, it hit me in my jaw,  that's when I became completely pissed and sprung towards him and continuously punched him in the face, he pushes me off him and stands straight, he looks at me from head to toe and rushes me, he tries to kick me, I moved my body to the other side and kick his other leg, he falls down and scratch his elbow, usually I'll just leave them while they are down but I was so angry, that I lost my cool and and attacked him badly, he yells for help as I continuously punch him in the face, everyone sees me pummeling him on the ground, ethan and Leo start pulling me off him, after I finally calmed down I took my time and I saw what I did to his face and it wasn't pretty, he was bleeding from his mouth and his head, I walked out of the food court with the others and we all went to the room and we talked about it, Minna now scared starts trembling, leo holds her and says " don't be scared we'll protect you ", we all agree, a few minutes later Sonya enters the room and says " my dad denied everything I asked, there's only one way we can found out what's up " we all stare as she continues " we have to infiltrate my dad's office " immediately Ethan says " oh no I'm not gonna hack into someone's room,  the last time I was snooping around I almost got beat up and Ralph had to save my ass and now I owe him " I tap Ethan's shoulder and smile before saying " you owe me and now is the time to pay back ", Ethan groan as Minna says " what will I be doing ", leo volunteers to watch her, Sonya continues " good here's the plan, ralph Ethan and I will do the infiltration while Leo you watch Minna,  ethan you hack the computer and I'll check the files." we all nod, immediately as we finish, a high ranked mercenary calls me and Sonya, we both walk to him, he takes us to where the main meeting room is, " what's going on " said Sonya, from behind the high ranked mercenary, skater walks out, I look confused but after a few seconds I realized what was going on, skater told on me, the mercenary asks " son who did this to you " skater points at me, while they ordered Sonya to leave,  Sonya refused, the Sergeant walks in the room and asks " what's going on here ", the mercenary says " Kaishi's kid beat up my son for no reason ", the sarge looked at me and said " is that true boy ", I raised an eyebrow and looked at skater who was smiling at the back, then I said " he bumped into me and punched me first ", skater replied quickly " no I didn't ", I continued " just calm down, let's check the cameras ", skater replied " wait video cameras " we all walked straight to the video room as we moved on, Sonya tapped me and showed me an air vent leading straight to the office, I nodded as we all entered the room, as the guy wanted to play the video of this afternoon, I stopped him and said " play it right from when I and my brother first entered this place after the sparing fight " he started playing from there, we all saw what he had been doing,  he was always beating up kids for no reason, then I said " see this kid, your "son" attacks guys like us for no reason just to prove that he's  stronger, but he couldn't come after me and Ethan, cause we beat him before " then I looked at him and continued " he should never come after my teammates " with that I and Sonya walked out of the room, I was so frustrated with him that I found the nearest punching dummy and destroyed it, Sonya says " you done?"   I calmed down and walked back to the room.
At night time, we all went with the plan, ethan, Sonya and I went to the Sarge's office while Leo was watching Minna, ethan was ahead while I was the last one, while Sonya was in the middle, I felt uncomfortable cause her butt was touching my face, ethan finally got inside and hacked the computer while Sonya and I were searching the files, Immediately we heard the sound of footsteps, we all hid in separate place in the room only to find out the it was the Sarge that came in, he went straight to the file cabinet where Sonya was hiding, after a few minutes he opened a secret side and brought out a file and on it was a picture of me, ethan, leo, and Minna, Sonya peeped a little and saw me behind the table, she signaled for us to run, she grabbed a tiny stone from the ground and threw at the the window across the room, the Sarge dropped the file and went to check it,  while we all ran through the entrance, we went back to the room and we saw Minna and Leo talking, leo walks towards us and says " any progress " I replied " we have worse issues, turns out she's the not the only one they want, they want us also except Sonya ", " we gotta get outta here " Ethan adds, we all agree.
Sonya devised a plan for us to leave but the only flaw was that Minna wasn't like us, she wasn't skilled in combat or anything, so we improvised and decided Ethan should carry her, meanwhile since Sonya and I are team leaders, we'll draw attention from the others while Sonya and I follow a separate route.
