54 it's your job, over.

Their initial plan was to wait for the cargo ship to arrive and just go for a killing spree but with the information, Alexander Han laid out — they decided that only one will be in close combat while someone will do the sniping cover --that leads them into a brief argument.

After a momentary quarrel between Riggs and Ace about who should be in charge of close combat and who will be the support, though Riggs left wrist was sprained due to his crashed rescuing Seraphina, he still insisted on doing the close combat.

"C'mon man, you know I'm not good at sniping people… I might accidentally shoot you in the head. Besides, this sprained is nothing." reassuring Ace that he would not screw up in his appointed task, he waved his left hand showing his sprained wrist telling him that it's not a big issue.

"Whatever," separating their ways, Ace muttered apathetically.

Riggs went alone into the said location where the usual shipments occurred while Ace together with Alex went somewhere not far in a high ground location. They found Alexander Han much useful than they expected. His relevant information about this certain mob group --their regular operations and almost everything about them as if he did a great digging to obtain such information.

Also, he is much more familiar in this islands map, thus, they wouldn't have to find their way and just went straight to the said perfect location that can match their plan.

Reaching the higher ground, Ace scan the area and indeed, if Alexander Han is correct about this information --gazing at the open ocean and the seemed coast where the now destroyed members of that certain mob group ships their goods and receive their supplies including women.

As he starts to assemble the 145cm length Barrett M82A1, he glances at Alexander Han who's intently watching him assemble the powerhouse rifle.

"What? Wanna try?" though it came out sarcastic, unlike Riggs who's all out of being indignant towards them --In spite of Seraphina's condition that is indeed disgruntling, he on the other end tried to put everything on the truce for now.

"Are you really sure that he'll be fine? Or this will work? How can you be so sure that they won't be back again after this?" referring to Riggs who came alone to the coast, he inquired followed by other questions.

"You heard the man. He got the plan he said." continuing his work, he replied with lack of interest answering his inquiry.

"So you yourself aren't sure?" disbelief at his response, Alexander tune couldn't conceal his panic.

"Nah, I'm sure they won't, though he won't tell me how either." confident at his words, he responded.

"Hey, where are you?" grabbing the transceiver they looted at the camps they came from, Ace contacted Riggs on the other end.

"What's the rush, over...

Almost there, over" his ludicrous voice can be imagined as he tries to lighten up the mood of Ace who's clearly not enjoying the situation.

"You better not screw up."

"It's your job, over." telling him it's his job to keep him alive, he continues to humor it.

After the short conversation, Ace turned his attention back to Alexander Han not far away from him.

"So, while we wait for them to arrive, why don't we have a talk? I hate it when those old men being your spokesperson." though he briefly put aside all his questions about this island, now that it is just the both of them, the idea of interrogating the dashing man while waiting for the enemy to appear is a great idea to kill time.

"I think you owe us an explanation, yes? You better start talking now and come clean." his unrestrained words and tone are intimidating but Alexander Han is unfazed about the dark aura he is emitting.

"The main producer of the show is now, me. I thought since those people don't meddle in the townspeople since its part of their promise to them --I wanted to make this island known to the world. That maybe, it'll threaten those people to leave this island and get their lives back to what it used to be." though there is not a change in his composed voice, the depths of his hazel green eyes hold so much unspoken words within them.

"Lame." only one word came to Ace as he listens to him.

"I know that now."

"But why do you want to mess with them? Unless you came from another organization."

"NO! No, no. you're wrong." Alexander Han sudden defensiveness, made suspicion rise on Ace quick-witted mind.

"It's just …" Alexander sighs exasperated at Ace remarks.

"As you can see, I'm the second young master of the Han family from Han Corporation. I was naive and thought that our company is one of the best companies in the world but you cannot reach the top without doing some underhanded things. Which I've only known a few years ago. Those people in Isla de Paz are the few family victims from the organization my family is associated with. It means peace so they won't live in fear anymore. So, when elder Meng came to us, I felt so powerless because I know I cannot do anything about it that time and I can't put the people in Isla de Paz in danger… but I just can't just leave them, right? so that is where my stupid plan came." not going through all the details, Alexander Han explained it in a nutshell.

"I see, you're the hero type of guy but… you're no hero and you cannot save everyone." turning solemn, Ace spoke after listening to Alexander Han's explanation.

"I know, but I wanted to do something."

"Well, we're doing something now isn't? You got lucky. Better prepare some good dish after this." Ace adjusted in a prone position as he peeks at the scope of the sniper rifle. Taking the walkie talkie beside him, he spoke.

"They're here." Ace informed

"Yeah, I see them," Riggs responded in a complete change of tone.
