On The Run [On Hold]

P R O L O G U E

Aerin's POV

"Shit, we need to run!" pasigaw na bulong ni Danielle sa amin nang makarinig ng footsteps na papalapit kung nasaan kami.

"I can't stand." halos maiyak na sabi ko habang nakahawak sa bandang hita ko kung saan ako nadaplisan ng bala. It freaking hurts.

"Dom, help me here!" inalalayan akong makatayo ni Dani at Dominique.

"I'll get the car." paalam ni Thea bago tumakbo papunta sa direksyon kung saan nakapark ang kotse namin.

"You're so slow, seriously. Come on, on my back!" Heavy breathings can be heard as Cyan carried me on her back and run as fast she could with Dom and Dani on our sides.

"What the hell?!" We heard a man's loud voice not far from here.

He must have seen it.

"Hop in!" pumasok agad kami sa kotse as soon as we saw our car in front of us.

"Find them!" we heard the same voice again for the last time as we close the car door.

Agad na pinatakbo ni Thea ang kotse at umalis sa area. All of us sighed in relief nang makalayo na kami sa lugar na 'yon at makitang walang nakasunod sa amin.

"Sino 'yon?" Dani was the first one to spoke up among us. Lahat kami napatingin sa isa't isa.

Looks like we all have that same question.

"We don't know. It's not like we saw who that is. We only heard the voice." nakakunot ang noong sabi ni Cyan.

"Cyan's right. Hindi kaya't kabilang sa mga alipores nung target natin?" saad ko. It's not impossible, is it?

"No way. Didn't we get rid of them at first?" sagot ni Dom habang ginagamot ang parte kung saan ako tinamaan. If they're not the target's bodyguards or whatever, then who are they?

"Guys, change up. We're near the school and we still need to go to class." sabi ni Thea na nakatutok ang tingin sa kalsada habang nagmamaneho.

"Rin, kaya mo pa bang pumasok?" Nag-aalalang tanong ni Dominique sakin as she finishes treating my wound.

"Of course, it's just a minor wound." I answered at nagkibit balikat na lamang si Dom pabalik. I admit it still hurts somehow, but I think I can endure the pain.

I started to change into my uniform just like the others. We're already at the parking space of the university.

"Kailangan muna natin magreport sa agency before we came to class. We need to inform them na nakatakas ang target." sabi ko sa kanila at hinanap ang badge ng uniform ko.

Nakapagtataka. Where did it go?

"Guys, have you seen my badge?" all of them shook their heads. Inisip kong mabuti kung saan ko nilagay yung badge ko. Nasa bulsa ko lang yon kanina ah.

Wait. Hindi kaya't...

Biglang nagring ang phone ko at dali dali ko naman itong kinuha.

"It's the agency." I informed the girls bago ko sagutin ang tawag.

"Yes?"

"Where are you?"

"I-I'm with the girls, at the university."

"And your tracker?" Napalunok ako ng sarili kong laway bago sumagot, I have no choice but to tell the truth.

"I-I think I dropped it. But I will find it! It can't be far from that area-"

"Then how come that your tracker is moving away in the opposite direction just a few minutes ago? And now we can't even locate where is it!"
