"Sorry, what?" I blinked.

"Your parents. Created the deadly Thana disease," Evan repeated.

"My parents? Creating the disease? You must be mistaken, my parents are just normal scientists,"

"Very smart scientists, who are against the country," Lil' Ghost corrected.

"What? Ag-Against the country?"

"I guess she doesn't know anything. Let her go," August said.

"Hey hey hey, she might be faking it," Austin protested.

"Exactly. Anyways, we'll discuss more about this later. Let's go August, we have a mission,"

"Wait. Who are you guys, you haven't answered it?" I questioned again.

"Answer her, Azora," Adam said before storming off. Ignoring him, I faced the said man.

"We work for officials of the country. So basically, the officials has the highest teirs of the country, and we have the second teir. We never actually wanted to do it, nor do what they commanded us to, but we got voted by the citizens,"

"Why did I not know about this voting?"

"People who is in the fifth teir and below weren't notified about this,"

"Ahh, makes sense. I'm in the fifth tier. But all of you didn't actually want to kidnap me ?"

"Well... about that, all but Adam," Justin said.

"What's so special about him?"

"He's fucked up, he's so devoted to his job. He would do anything to for the officials to respect him. In fact, he's so determined, that even some of the officials are scared of him. He treats himself like the fucking king. He wants to be in power, to be feared. To be feared even more than the officials," Austin explained.

"Has he always been like that?"

"Not ti-" Leo started, but was jabbed in the ribs by Justin.

"Hey, uh, it's getting late. Go rest, it's been a long day," Boogie said.

"Where?"

"August's room. Up the stairs, down the hall, to the right, then to the left. The one that writes '1' on it,"

"Holy shit- she's going to stay in August's room?" Leo said in amazement.

"Why?" I questioned.

"August is totally different behind those walls. A totally different person. He leaves his dangerous self behind when he passes the door to his door,"

"August is nearly as fucked up as Adam, in their own different ways,"

"So, August and Adam are the most dangerous ones?"

"Adam is the most dangerous, though ranked 3 by the citizens. Him being our leader, he takes everything seriously and doesn't joke around. Don't do your work right? He kills you with his words. August would be second, he was voted first in the competition of ours for the top 9 after all. His mind is just all messed up. He hides all his dirty secrets of his behind his grey eyes, all his doings. Leo is probably the third, he may look innocent but when he gets to work, oh, he's scary. Justin would be fourth, then Evan, Austin, Boogie, Lil' Ghost, and finally me. But Adam is our leader, and Boogie is our vice-leader," Azora explained. (A/N I know that Cheng Cheng isn't the leader but just take it as he is lmao for the plot)

My mind was getting messed up hearing all these.

"Uh, I'm going to rest, I'm kinda tired,"

"Get some rest, all these are new to you, you must be confused and scared," Boogie said.

"I'll bring her there," Evan offered.

"Thanks. This place is sorta big," I thanked as we walked towards August's room.

"Do you have a thing for August?"

"No!" I protested.

"He seems interested in you though. He hasn't felt that way since 4 years ago, don't crush his hopes" Evan smirked.

"But if you don't like me, I'm always available," he winked as he stopped in front of a room with the number '1' on it.

"Uhh, I'm not interested in you sweetie," I laughed as I entered August's room.

His room was as big as the my kitchen and living room of my own house put together. That thought made me have a pang in my heart.

Ruibin.

I missed him so much.

I could imagine each and every movement he was doing.

I could imagine him pacing up and down the corridor of our house.

I could imagine him calling my handphone, which I lost at the place me and August first met.

I could imagine him calling every single of our friends to ask them where I was.

Our friends.

Quanzhe.

Wenjun.

Zeren.

Xinchun.

I could imagine all of them running to my house, questioning my brother about me.

I could imagine them, including my brother, anxiously glancing at the door, clinging on to that little hope that...

I would come barging in.

But I had a feeling, I wouldn't ever see that door again, let alone go in it.
