Chapter Seven

Chapter Seven

"Hello, this is agent 45, over. " I slightly moved in my airpods to my ear. Agent 66 is on my side since he's my apprentice here.

"Are you still fine, Agent 44? " 66 asked.

"Of course! I'm not an agent if I'm weak! "

"I'm just asking! You're too arrogant! " He said.

"I just answered your question. "

"I said this is Agent 45, over! " Our eardrums almost broke when we heard 45 shouted through the line.

"Damn it! We know! " 66 shouted too.

"What's happening there? " I asked

"As usual, the famous business mens and womens are here. Now, the one ancient sculpture from China is in our front. Since it's illegal, they propably stole it, " saad ni 45.

"Seriously? What's with that anyway? " I grimaced.

"They believe that this will help them to get lucky on their business. "

I shooked my head.

They're crazy... "

"Agent 44, be ready. The painting is on the way. " We nodded.

We immediately walked towards the restricted area where the painting is placed. The walls are covered with modern designs. In the middle, we saw the two staff holding the painting. It is covered.

"Sorry but you'll not able to sell that. " After saying that, we did our job. But in the middle of our mission, I stopped when I smell someone's aroma and it is familiar. I look at 66.

"What? Did you just realized that I'm handsome even though I'm wearing a mask? " He asked.

"Did you think what I think? " I asked.

We both landed our eyes in the painting.

"I like that... "

Third Person's Point of View

"Anyone? Higher than 10 million? " The guy in the front with creepy masked said. Someone raised his hand.

"1 billion. " They all gasped.

Someone took a place again.

"20 trillion. " They all gasped again. No one could ever beat that kind of amount.

"This is agent 44, over! We've got the painting! Proceed to the plan! " The two agents got alarmed.

"Agent, now! " Agent 38 said. She pulled her long gown up and picked something. It is cylinder shape with just a size of a thumb. She throw it in the middle and Agent 45 do the same. After that, they covered they're nose with something. Once they inhaled that seductive smell, they will passed out.

"This is agent 38, over! Can you hear us?! " She said. They started escaping the area. Since she's wearing a high-heels, she took it and throw somewhere. Now, she's running with her bare foot.

"This is Agent 44, over! Yes, we can hear you! "

"We are now escaping the area! Where are you?! " Freyia asked.

"We're here— AHHHHH! AGENT 66! D*MN! " The connection got choppy. Freyia got scared for her sister.

"Xeena— 44! What's happening?! " Agent 44 nervously asked.

"I- We're —" The line ended. Freyia and Klein looked at each other.

What could be happening to the other agents?

"Agent 45, they need some help, " Freyia said, gasping.

"We can't go back there, Agent 38. It's too dangerous. We need to wait for them, " Agent 45 said too.

"No way! How can I supposed to wait when my sister is there?! The police will come in any moment! " She hissed.

She's now hysterical.

"Calm down, Freyia. Xeenalah will be safe. "

Freyia's tear suddenly flowed within her cheeks. She can't stop thinking and worrying about her sister. Even though she treats her a rival, she still loves her and after all, she's her dearest sister.

"You're sister will be fine. "

Xeenalah's POV

"This is agent 44, over! We've got the painting! Proceed to the plan! " I said on the other line. I took a glance at Agent 66. He's making a rest. I made a face. We didn't even reach a minute of walk because of him. But, I still admire how good his combat skills. He's also leaning on the wall.

I made a hum.

"Agent, now! " I heard from the other line. I guess they started to do their plan. We're just waiting for them to leave their place so we can move too. We can't leave each other here specially where out of nowhere. There's a high possibility that one or two of us will lost. And we can't be so sure of the place since something illegal is in here. There's a lot of enemy and we were lucky if we will got a fight for one.

A moment later, I can smell the scent of the sleeping gas. And since I'm a good agent, I know how to prevent myself from the sleeping gas. And I know, Agent 66 knew it too. I took a glance on him again. He's playing a smile with his lips.

"Wear your mask. Someone might see us, " I ordered him.

"Hmmm. You know what, Agent. May kakaiba akong naaamoy, " he said. I blinked. I creased my forehead.

"It's the smell of the gas? I guess... " I sighed.

"Your guess is wrong. It's the smell of- "

"Sh*t! Agent 66, move! " When a guy came out of nowhere and tried to steal the painting from him. I got nervous quickly. Now, the puzzles in my mind got solved. Aren't they the one Freyia's talking to on the phone?

Maybe.

A moment later, many guys came too and start fighting us. And of course, we have no choice but to turned them down. I madly bit my lip when I saw a little scratch on my waist. Tsk. They're too many.

"This is agent 38, over! Can you hear us?! " Someone said. Thankfully, that time, our enemies all done that is why I signal Agent 66 to come near me. And to follow me, also.

"This is Agent 44, over! Yes, we can hear you! " I answered.

"We are now escaping the area! Where are you?! " I'm sure, it's Freyia's voice. I blinked in the midst of the darkness when I saw someone's standing a bit far from us. Another enemy? Come on! This is the worst mission ever! Why there's a lot of enemy?

"We're here- AHHHHH! AGENT 66! DAMN! " I shouted in pain when he throwed me some bladed card just like the one I have. I've got a scratch on my knees. Who are they?! And when I blinked once, I just saw Agent 66 is lying on the floor, unconscious. The heck! I was able to reach him when I saw the guy took the painting. Geez! I can't let him steal that!

"Xeena- 44! What's happening?! " Agent 45's voice. I smallened my eyes.

"I- We're -" I have no time to talk to them. This is not included in my plans! This guy ruined our mission! I can't control my anger so I picked my airpod and throwed it somewhere. Gosh! I followed the guy and gave him a full-force kick in the back. When he landed on the floor, he kick the painting too. He immediately got up.

Wow! I'm a bit impressed!

"D*mn it! " He cursed.

I take a look on the painting. It's not that far and I can totally get it. So, I picked up my bladed card and throwed it at him too. I immediately ran through the painting. I was able to reach it when someone grabbed my feet. I got alarmed and armed my chest. This is a very sensitive part for us! I can't let it landed directly. I tried to manage the pain but I can't. Goodness.

When we both stood up, I faced him. I started giving him a hard punch with my own fist. And I'm really impressed on how he avoid all of it. I guess, he's not that simple enemy. He is a very well-trained one. Maybe, he's a kind of apprentice of their leader. I was too impressed on him that's why he gota chance to catch my punches. He hold my fist closely. But that's only in the right one so I moved my fist onto his face causing his mask to fall.

Now, I have a chance to see his face.

But, I guess the destiny doesn't want that to happen. We're in the midst of darkness and only the light from the moom gives us a fine eye-sight in there. And when he finally faced me, I saw the paired of purple eyes.

That eyes...

My heart began to pound.
