MV Agusta F4 1000 R running at 180 KPH. . .

Charm / Ability bearer detected within 100 miles radius . . .

Arriving at the destination in 4 minutes and 37 seconds. . .

Getting closer to the charm / ability bearer. . .

Inertial navigation system enabled. . .

The speed of my motorcycle remain constant after it was activated to autopilot, giving me a little time to prepare my devices to disarm and capture another charm / ability bearer causing trouble here in the human world.

I secure my incapacitator gun with a strap at the side of my right leg, lava melee on the other, and I activated mission mode that will send distress signal to the headquarters once my heartbeat slows down.

"April, are you ready?" Luna said from my earpiece, she sound worried for me already as if it was the first time she's backing me up from the HQ. What a sweet girl.

"Priam taught me to be," I drew out a bittersweet smile.

Every time I'm on a mission, I can't still believe of what I have become. It wasn't even that long when I accepted the offer from UBSL, and a lot already happened. I excelled greatly in a short period of time maybe due to the nature of my charm, but everyone was worried of me thinking I might be overworking myself because of the things I learned months ago. And I must admit that it was not an easy thing to accept but this— I wanted to do this. For Avery, for myself, for Priam and for those who got caught up between different world disputes. Experiencing it firsthand leads me to want it to never happen to anyone else, or at least prevent it to be.

My sister's tragedy will always be a nightmare to me that I could never wake up to. During further investigation of the incident, it completely destroyed me to realize that this nightmare is only a part of a series. They also find out that my sister is also a charm bearer, and she's the cause of Lothaire's silence for the past years. And, it's making me proud, that despite her demise she saved more people from another tragic.

I am currently on my laptop, trying to pin the exact location of my target. I am on far secluded area that's why our data were delayed. On times like this, I still wonder how would it be if I was with Priam, he's always on my side since day one, taking care of me even if it's not his obligation to do so. I'm just forever grateful for that.

My eyes were pinned on the screen, trying to figuring out where our guy was hiding. After a few moments, it started to beep vigorously. Luna's voice boomed in my earpiece.

"April, behind you!"

A hair-like loop was getting in my head and I instinctively reach for my melee and cut it before it went down to my neck and chop it off my body. I successfully get away, but the thread I cut touched my cheek, and now the blood is dripping. I have to drop my laptop, and now it's broken. I will get scolded with this, I heaved a sigh.

Our target jumped from one tree to another, looks like someone wants to play tag.

"You should be extra careful," Luna's soft voice filled my ears.

"I know, I'm sorry."

I hold Priam's dog tag hanging on my neck. I know he's still trying to take care of me from a far, and probably throwing out unnecessary remarks from his annoying confidence.

I activated my boots to enhance my speed, and chase this bastard, tie his hands, and put him behind bars.

This will be my life from now on, I might not know what the future holds— but, I would approached it head on. Maybe, still with fear and doubt but those wouldn't stop me from getting better and bigger than my realities from the past.

This is April, and I will live a beautiful life.
