A rat coming to us bringing a folded paper on the back tied by ribbon to its body, from a little hole below the door.

"Good luck. P.S. They're here." He read. He then looked at it once and smiled. "Let's go."

He pushed the cupboard aside and revealed a passage, he put it back as soon as we got out of the room, there's a small cleavage on the back of it.

"She's smart." He chuckled.

"Yeah." She said as she gazed at the map for a while, understand it.

I took her left arm. "Do you really have amnesia?" I whispered.

He stopped and looked at her suspiciously. "You don't lie to me do you?"

"I got amnesia for my memory part but the educational parts or anything that gotta relate to theories and need a thought to do is untouched, so I know how. At least that's what the doctor said to me."

He paled. "Okay." He shrugged.

This tunnel hasa small mettalic little plate with rounded glass with a small hole on top for candles. She loves antique doesn't she. Her wooden carved doors and furnitures, some rare but oddly beautiful ornaments and chandelier in the house made me gaped, stunned by the appearance.

We climbed the ladders that's carved on the wall of rocks. We're inside a house, a garage. He lit the fire in the living room by the fireplace. He went for cutting it to small logs earlier. We agreed to rest here, for the night.

"Wake up, Annie." Someone rub my arm and rolled me back and forth. "We gotta go now." I squint my eyes at the darkness, it's still early in the morning. "Come on."

I got up and sling the bag on my shoulder. "What time? Now?"

"It's almost 5. Thanks to you we spend 30 minutes on you. Now, let's go." He ordered.

We walk through the broken wooden door, trecking on a forest. "Where are we going?"

"My friend's house, he has a helicopter on top of the mountain, well, he live in a bigger mansion, he's a senior after all."

I nodded. Yeah, we need this, we've been walking for miles and Jenny's still sick, she need to rest. Awe... She's pale. She's holding my hands all the time, it should be hurt, all of her is hurt.

"So... How are you miss Jenny?" He asked, kinda mocking.

"I'm fine, no thanks." She brushed him off nonchalantly.

"Okay then."

Jennifer's POV

I'm glad it'll be over soon. Harry's been messing around a lot, I knew it'll come to this sooner or later, he's such a coward, bringing his friends to help him frame me. What a stupid bro he is? Still I shouldn't have let her involved. Duh... Dang... I've acted as amnesia girl, I even ask doctor to cooperate, but he... He.... IS SUCH A LUNATIC. Fuck.

Who would have called past midnight yelling asking for help? Pranksters. He said he was beaten. Noone can make a call when they passed out. Moron. As soon as I got there, some other brainless jerks beats me and was going to shoot me, I blocked their punches so there barely a scratch or bruise on me, but gun?! I ran to the vehicles and was being hit by a car. Stupid car. Stupid Alex. He purposely crash into me. At least the bullet didn't get to my heart. I smiled.

So... Who's the pranksters? Harry and friends. Who's chasing us? Harry's friends. Why should we run away when the bad guy is with us all the time? Tell me why. Oh shit. Yeah... It was another freaked out moron, she's way too naive, my Annie. Is she on the list? I highly doubt it, she's too clumsy to be one of us. Harry and I might have same last name though we're not related, we're undercover.

Who's Annie anyway? A clingy girl that let me do anything I want. To top it all she was our target, to get her parents money and some information or we'll kill her, but they don't care about her. Now we ended up dating, living happily. So... Why now? What they want? Me? My things? Money? Access my data of people we should be hunting?

Argh... I'm so fuming with anger. I stomp soundlessly.

Annie's POV

"Are you okay?" I brush her rosy cheeks." Got fever?"

She hold my hand and pull it away. "I'm okay."

We got to the entrance of a castle like house, gorgeous. "Hi everyone, I'm Sean."

I nodded and smile. "I'm Annie."

"Jim, let's talk." He said.

A girl come to sight as she smiled. "Hi, I'm Claire, Clara's twin if you met her before. I'll take you to your room, follow me please."

I felt Jenny's hold on me tighter, in a protective way. We walk to second floor by round stairway. We get the last room on the left.

"Please wait a moment till I call you." She closed the door and flee.

Her hand brush my cheek and pinch my nose. "Let's talk."

I nodded. "Tell me the truth, it's been to weird lately."

"The truth is." Someone interrupted us. Claire.

She opened the door and closed it quitly quickly. "Follow me." She lifted the carpet under the bed, a shallow space in there. "You go first, just slide. You remember it right?" Jenny nodded and slide.

I looked at her confused. "Go now, they're heading here." I heard footsteps of several people. "I'll be okay." I nooded and slide down. She quickly close it and covered it once again.

"What are you doing? Come on, faster." She demanded.
