The den I.

Four hours later.

Laying down with her eyes open, Resa stared at the ceiling of her room with an empty look in her eyes. Shutting her eyes to grab some sleep had proven to be another war on its own again and stupid her forgot her sleeping pills.

Well she literally forgot everything except herself but, " Argghh, I need a painkiller," she groaned out.

Normally, dealing with a hangover and then been hit with a car in a span of an hour will land you in a hospital but Resa was far from normal that even with the slight cut on her head that looked like nothing only she knew the pain that she was going through.

Nothing ever made sense in her life but this is just how she was mean to be, right?

Standing with only her underwear in front of the mirror, Resa stared at her face, her real face without the mask and it felt like forever that she hadn't seen herself. She hardly looked in the mirror so she would know.

She raised her hand to remove the wig cap on her head and her short mop of hair came to view.

"Hhm, it actually grew longer," she said combing it with her fingers. Liking the new shoulder length, she smiled running her fingers through them.

A bitter smile. Why was she blessed with such good hair that even had a weird colour which was actually beautiful since birth and yet she couldn't show off.

She knew that most girls took extra care when it came to their hair and skin. But her just washing and drying was all it took for her hair to shine and she was good to go even though she never showed it off.

Anyways, she tried to remove the contacts but ended up poking her eyes. Just great! She forgot she had grey eyes, what a human!! To actually forget what you look like, ha!

No one could blame her. She had been wearing different disguises for the most part of her life and the past two years were worse considering the missions, and everything that she had been working with the Black Skull 💀 and her past, there wasn't time for herself.

But she was glad she back to this shit hole. Because this shit hole had the only family that she had.

Once when she was ambushed, after being shot in the arm and leg, she left hanging near a cliff. When she closed her eyes feeling that this was it for her, she actually saw their faces before she lost consciousness and was rescued by the townsfolk living nearby.

After having her shower and changing to her normal black shorts and baggy shirt, she remembered the kind of life that she had to be living soon because of her new mission.

"Seems like , am going with the gang on this one."

" Smarty, I need all info I can get on this Korean heir. If that's what he is anyway. Like dude how many names does he have? " She asked.

" I would take that as you talking to yourself but should I still get you the needed information." Smarty stated laying emphasis on the 'information'.

"Yes, I was talking to myself, got a problem with that, wanna take me to a mental asylum now, huh?! Just get me the needed info, okay, " she fired back, laying emphasis on ' info'.

" And ooh! FYI, info is short for information and you should know that as an AI," she huffed.

" Yes, Resa," the virtual assistant answered and it almost felt like it was sulking.

Rolling her eyes at the AI like it could see, she went into her closet, opened a compactment the floor, which was actually a refrigerator that had all the goodies that were banned in the clan and picked up a bag of marshmallows and a bottle of Irish cream and went for the front door.

Before going out, she sighed and said, "Smarty, am sorry and thanks.... you are not useless, just annoying, so just get the fucking information, before I get back, okay?"

Saying that she closed the door and rushed out like she didn't want anyone making her acknowledge that she just expressed her feelings. Nothing good ever comes out of it.

Using the stairs, she went to the training grounds and after passing the guards stealthily, she went over the fence before going towards the restricted forest area.

Going deeper, Resa followed the cleared pathway, she turned to her left and right, left and right again and after making sure that no one was following her, she crossed the stream in front of her that only covered her feet.

In front of her was the famous inconspicuous cave of the gang that was very creepy and scary. It looked like the mouth of a ferocious beast but was just an entrance to a huge cave that the Actrxs used as their den.

Resa entered the cave and on cue she shouted, "BOO!!" right into the face of the curley haired girl with a beautiful brown skin, who was also about to do the same but was now sitting on the floor on her butt and holding her chest because of the shock.

"Dude, not cool, I was supposed to be doing that! Hey! Liz, look at this, this ain't right , no? " she half yelled and whined calling the brown haired Lisa to support her.

" Well, you were about to that to me, so deal with it. It ain't right when I do it right?" Resa asked smugly.
