"Where's Agent?" She asked.

"Out back," Kobra answered looking up at her, "I think."

"I think he's talking to someone on the phone, maybe some friends or distant family," Party added.

"Thanks." Diamond smiled. She took a glance at Ghoul's direction, where she noticed he was also looking at her. They exchanged glances for a split second and then, she headed towards the back door. There, she saw Agent yelling into the telephone angrily.

Agent saw Diamond at the corner of his eye, and quickly hung up the phone. She walked towards him with her arms stretched outward for a hug.

"Who was that?" Diamond asked suspiciously.

"No one, just.... No one." He said with a forced smile.

She didn't think much of it, she didn't really care. Diamond was still hypnotized, and enchanted by Agent. She was in love. No doubt. He was her drug. He was her first love. Suddenly, he slipped a kiss on her lips. His lips pressed against hers, and she felt his warmth. She blushed.

"Hey," Diamond smiled as she held Agent's hand, "Do you want to go for a walk?"

"With you? I'd go anywhere." Agent answered. Then, he kissed her cheek.

This was enough to turn Diamond's light porcelain skin turn to a bright red.

As they got ready for their walk, Pony alerted them.

"The dracs, they've found our location!" He yelled at the top of his lungs, "Everyone split!"

"Oh shit!" Party yelled.

"But how could they-" Kobra thought out loud, feeling confused.

They grabbed their ray guns, slipped on their masks, and put on their jackets. Jet took Dr. Death and rolled him up into the van, and Party carried Missile into the Trans Am. Cherri, Pony and the others followed. Diamond and Agent looked at each other still confused. Agent, however, remained calm. Inside and out. In the other hand, Diamond was freaking out, she panicked as she ran towards the Trans Am clutching her gun.

"Well, are you coming?" she called towards Agent.

"Sure." Agent smiled as they got into the Trans Am.

Dr. Death along with the others were already gone. Ghoul, Kobra, Party, Jet, Missile, Diamond and Agent weren't so lucky. If only they moved fast enough.

Dracs, and scarecrows, a whole lot of them surrounded the killjoys.

As the killjoys drew their guns, the draculoids and scarecrows were already shooting at the Trans Am. They popped its tires and managed to break a window.

"There's too many of them!" Rose screamed as she shot vigorously at the upcoming dracs.

"Where the hell is Agent?" Jet asked, searching for him, fearing the worst.

"I was thinking the same thing." Ghoul said suspiciously, catching a glance at Diamond.

Suddenly, they looked up to find Agent holding a gun against Party's fiery red hair. At that moment, Rose knew Ghoul's suspicions were right. She felt stupid. She should have listened to Ghoul.

"I think I have an idea how the Dracs found our base." Kobra said angrily, his eyes were filled with rage and disappointment.

Diamond felt betrayed. She should've listened to Ghoul when he tried to warn her about Agent. She felt hate, and sadness towards the boy she thought she Loved. Her sadness turned into pure rage. Is this what heartbreak was? She was so naïve, so vulnerable, so stupid. This is what happens when she falls too deep, she lets her guard down and becomes a prey exposed to any predator. She felt warm tears fall down her face, and sting her pale cheeks.

She wanted revenge. '

"This is the end," Agent smiled devilishly, "One wrong move and I blow Party's brains out."

"What do you want?" Ghoul asked.

"Oh, you know what I want."

"I thought we could trust you," Diamond cried, "You meant a lot to me. You said-"

"Everyone lies, darling," Agent laughed, "You were too stupid to notice what was happening. You were caught up in your own little fairytale, too enchanted for us to grab a hold of you."

"And all that bullshit lies you fed me..." Diamond added.

"You shouldn't be so quick to trust everyone you see," Agent smirked.

"Who are you, really?" Jet asked.

"Well, if you must know, my name is Jax," He answered, "I was sent here by Korse. He knew that you imbeciles wouldn't let a fellow 'killjoy' die. So he sent me as a spy, to raid your base and terminate all of you."

Suddenly, they heard a shot from a ray gun fire. It had hit Agent, A.K.A. Jax in the arm, which made him loose his grip on Party, and had dropped his own gun onto the sand. Then, another one followed, this time, hitting Agent's back. Which caused him to fall into the sand face-first.

The killjoys were confused, and didn't know where the shot came from. Then, they remembered that Missile was still hidden in the Trans Am.

There she was. Missile. Standing behind the fallen body, holding a ray gun which was pointing at Agent. The very same one that had shot Agent unconscious. Missile stood still, with no expression on her face. Then she dropped the gun, and ran to Party.

"You did good, kid" Ghoul smiled as he patted the little girl's shoulder.

"You really saved our a-" Kobra cut himself off, "uh, skins."

"Good job, kiddo," Party chuckled as he hugged the little girl, "You really saved my life there!"

"Thanks guys," Missile said, "It looked like you guys were in quite a pickle there."

She looked at Agent.

"Did I kill him?" she said worryingly.

"I don't think so, you just grazed his arm. He's unconscious." Jet answered.

The killjoys carried Agent's body into the dracs' van and left towards the Trans Am. Leaving behind Agent, unconscious but breathing. Then, they were off.
