It was hard to see Niha screaming with pain. She didn't deserve all this!

6:20 a.m.

Niha finally got up. Me and Avi got no sleep, as two hours of sleep last night at his place while April and Nick waited for their location, was the best one! Also, Avi went crazy over Niha's shot. Actually, we all did!

"We'll wake April and Nick up and then you start." said August, looking at the Shadow Guy.

"Why did you shoot her?" I asked.

"We didn't. We were saving them from those people and took them to that building to stay undercover for some time and also to remove that bullet off her knee."

"Okay. But why were they behind you and what made them shoot Niha?"

"They thought she's an undercover for us. They want stuffs from us and that's kind of difficult as it's only two of us and we would rather die than tell them anything. They know that. So, they thought maybe you could tell them something seeing the way you were eyeing at us and all of a sudden made a guest appearance in a late night elderly strip club!"

"Oh! So you mean, it is our fault for have eyed you?" August spoke up.

"Definitely. Kid, when you do undercover, you don't make it obvious. Italian accent? What, in Mangalore? Stupid! And that little girl just went along. Look who's suffering now!" Swaroop Uncle pointed at Niha.

That kind of offended and at the same time made August sad. The last thing he wanted to know was that they were in that state because of him! Niha was in that state because of him! Avi went near Niha who still couldn't believe we all were with her. She thought it was the last day of her life when she was shot. She seemed much better in a state than I would ever be if I was shot for wearing more makeup and a good dress! She is a strong girl. And she nodded with a smile at August, 'It wasn't your fault' smile!

"Who are you anyways? I've never known you as Dad's friend or whatever!" suddenly Avi turned from consoling Niha to the Shadow Guy. He badly wanted answers. We all did. He just came directly to the point!

"Oooo! It's finally come. I was expecting better faces and situations when I said this one!" He turned towards Avi's Dad. "Want to do the honors?"

"Sure! Kids, this is Mr. Rami Lone, another survivor of the KRI blast."

He was supposed to be the bad guy! Right? Oh God!

"What? That happened years ago and he seems too young to be even be a part of KRI!"

"Well, that's where everyone went wrong! Kanishk wasn't the only guy who was in his twenties while he was recruited! He was in the main Research team, while Rami was in the Technology team. That's the story we have to explain. But, can we peace out for now until they wake up and have some nice breakfast?" Swaroop Uncle seemed more than excited to tell us the story.

Everyone nodded. That's the best thing we could do! Another survivor! What..? It was like every survivor of that goddamn blast is around us! Coincidence? Nah! This was planned, by God. God knows how many more survivors will we discover! UGHHH!
