“15! Are you still there?” tugon ni Masahi habang kinakausap siya mula sa kanyang lapel. Ng mga oras na iyon, marami ng nawawalang dugo sa kanya’t malapit na siyang mawalan ng malay.
“Damn! What am I suppose to do when her tracking point is going nuts?” paiyamot na dagdag ni Masahi habang nililibot ang buong siyudad.
“Masahi, do you read me?” sagot bigla ni Kakuichi habang naki-intercept siya sa locator ni Masahi.
“Wide and clear sir.”
“Any sign of 15?”
“Negative. Don’t worry sir, I can handle this alone. I’ve spotted #11 and #12 around. Tell them I’m doing this solo.”
“Are you insane? The Black Spider is a large criminal group! And once..” bago pa man makaimik si Kakuichi, pinutol na ni Masahi ang kanyang interception sa kanya.
“It seems that I have no choice but to hold both #11 and #12 off this one.”
Habang nagdedeliryo na ang mga paningin ni 15, nagkameron na ng malay si Marauji. Nagitla siya ng makitang duguan ang dalaga na nagmumula sa kanyang mukha.
“15! Are you alright! Speak to me!” bulong ni Marauji habang napansin ang pauli-uling lalake na nagmamatyag sa kanila.
“I’m fine, don’t worry. I’ve got a favor for you to do.”
“Don’t speak! Save your breath.”
“No, I’m serious. I want you to pay attention.”
“Ok, ok.”
“I want you to promise me, that whatever happens.. I want you.” Natigilan bigla si 15 ng makita niya ang dalawang lalalking may hawak na kadenang kinakalawang na tila ba ipangtotorture nila sa kanya.
“Promise what?”
“Whatever happens, I want you to stay the same- as a special friend of mine that I always knew for whatsoever you are about to see. That I..”
“I swear.”
