Christain was sitting in front of his computer. His golden hair was messy. His eyes held dark circles around them as he stared at the screen with strained look and forced wide eyes.

Even then there was a strange charm in him that one could not overlook and fell helplessly attracted to his well-defined features.

"Man how long has it been since you last slept?", Noah, his cousin, who had the same blond hair but was definitely matchless in front of Christain in terms of beauty and grace, suddenly said.

"Probably 49 hours", Christain replied nonchalantly in a raspy voice without looking away from his screen.

"49 hours? That's makes two days", Noah mused, "What! You haven't slept for two days?"

Christain didn't say anything as he felt queer. The lack of sleep was sure messing with his brain.

"You wouldn't have slept if you were in my place", he mumbled.

"Who is the unlucky fella getting his untold being unfolded by you this time?"

"Someone who can shake the heavens and subdue the demons"

"Woah!", Noah was dumbstruck, "Christain you remember what happened last time you used this sentence for the person you were prying? At the end of the day you got whacked by your father and even you dragged me into the blame with you"

Christain knew what he was doing was not right and very immoral. To probe into others personal things using illegal means. But blast it! He couldn't control himself.

Curiosity killed the cat. Well it would not have killed it if the cat was a little bit more careful. And of course cat is an animal with low IQ. Sure it had to die. And as for him, he was a human and far superior to that careless cat.

That's how he justified himself.

And that wolf in sheep clothing. He had to to it. If not him who would solve the mystery behind her?

"That won't happen this time", he replied to Noah while still checking out something on his

PC.

"That what did you mean by that fella can shake the heavens and subdue the demons. Isn't he an important person to earn such a praise from you?"

"She has the ability shake the heavens and subdue the demons but she hasn't done it yet"

"She?", Noah was even more confused, "Count me out I don't wanna get my ass whipped by uncle because of you once again"

"As you wish" , Christain mumbled.

As Noah tried to leave the leave, a reluctance revealed in his gait.

"Though I don't have inherited as inquisitive character as yours from grandfather, I'm genuinely curious about what could be it this time that made you this excited. So I'll just have a peek", as Noah said he bent down to look at the screen.

He had a puzzled look on his face once he saw what Christain had been staring for two days.

"In this all?", his voice held a hint of dubiety.

"Yes!", Christain had a crazy look in his eyes that was amplified with his dark circles and messy hair, "Don't you feel it when you see this red circle on the map?"

"Looks like a normal map of the mainroad to me where someone put a circle to find a location to do something perfectly normal"

"NO!", Christain literally screamed and grabbed Naoh collar like a psycho, "You don't get it. Something fishy must have happened there!"

"Hold on man! You alright?"

Christain was acting way to crazy.

"Look at this red circle!", still grabbing Noah collar in his one hand he pointed at the screen, "I found from her tablet that she was picking up some signals from that point and predicted that the signal must have ended at this point!'

"Christain you need sleep badly"

"What does that can possibly mean?", Christain ignored Noah, "She was tracking someone and the signal ended up on main road surrounded by those important buildings"

Noah felt like Christain words carried some weight so he looked back again at the screen.

"Are you sure this 'she' is not an important person who would get our asses whipped"

"No, she sure wouldn't get our asses whipped", Christain said.

Noah was excited. It meant he could join Christain in his expedition.

"Because she can whip our asses herself"

That ended Noah joy. Following his policy of 'nothing dangerous', he held up his hands "I didn't hear anything", saying he left in a furtive manner.

Christain shrugged as he continued to stare at his screen. This was what he gathered from her tablet. And to understand the truth behind all this, he must have more means.

But this was much more exciting than the virus on Noah tablet.

Her tablet wouldn't have been used much by her . She must did the real deal on her PC.

Now he'll have to put something in her PC.

"You're Angelize?", a voice said.

"Yes"

"You've been called to Principal office"

Angelize nodded and the girl left after conveying the message.

"Are we in trouble?", Sarah asked feebly. She knew that both of them were thinking of the same possibility.

"That depends", Angelize gave a brief response.

Angelize stood up to head outside.

"Isn't it about Caroline? What are you going to do now?", Sarah couldn't help asking out of curiosity.

"It'll depend on the severity of the situation"

"You've the video. Don't you?", Sarah had a sanguine look, "Just show them that and it'll be fine"

If not for the video, Sarah would have been in cold sweat.

"I'm afraid its far more complicated than that"', Angelize replied in dull tune.

Angelize knew it would be happening in future. Caroline was but a stupid person. She didn't take Angelize warning seriously. But Angelize didn't expect Caroline to strike back so soon. Now she had to deal with both Zayden and Caroline at the same time.

"Let me come with you", Sarah purposed, "Two is better than one"

"You'll be get dragged into it for no reason. They had called only for me means that Caroline had not mentioned you. It would be difficult for you to go on if she targets you",

"But..."

"I'm leaving"

Once she entered the office with the calm look in her eyes, she saw Caroline and Ashley there. Caroline was sniffing and sobbing in a manner anyone would feel bad for her and Ashley was comforting her.

However when her eyes met Angelize, she couldn't hide an evil glint and a faint sneer from emerging on her face.
