One day later...

"Astonishing," the warden murmured to himself.

Looking at all these security tapes...

All my men... All greatly trained professionals to guard this prison...

Yet she made them all look like amateurs.

What is her secret ?

What is she hiding ?

He threw Koroshi's file on the wall in a fit of rage.

The ringing of his cellphone broke the silence.

"You better have some good news right now. Because I'm definitely not in the mood for bad ones !"

"A-about that... sir..." the police officer on the receiver end whimpered.

"I-I found the four officers chasing after Koroshi. But they all seem... They seem off."

"What the hell do you mean by OFF ?" the warden shouted.

"S-sir... They've been driven mad. W-we don't know the reason..."

"Please... I need you to calm down," the warden heard a doctor saying on the other side.

"L-lightning ! So much lightning !" A traumatised officer cried. "He took her !"

He suddenly shouted at the doctor, "You're with him !"

"What ? Please, my friend. I need you to calm down." the doctor pleaded.

"E-evil ! He-" the police couldn't even finish his sentence before bursting into a sob.

"I'm sorry, I can't do more." the doctor sighed.

"Sir..." the police officer on the receiver end said. "They're going to need some...help."

The warden picked up a vase and smashed it against the wall.

"Did one of them mention lightning ?"

"Um yes. How did you-" The warden put down his phone and pinched his eyebrows.

Koroshi...

All that strength...

All those cunning and sly ways to slip right out of our grasp...

It all makes sense now...

"Sir ?"

"Find Koroshi ! NOW !" he barked.

In a dark factory, a tall man with black hair stood in the centre of the room.

"You seven. Make sure no one sees you when you kill James. If you see a witness, kill them without hesitation. His younger brother, Pat, is a coward. He should spit out some useful information about his father. Kill him afterwards."

He turned to his right, "You four. Make sure the shipment is in place. You. The group with seventeen people. Guard the doors. Don't let anyone in."

His phone rang in his hand and he pressed the object to his ear.

"Hello ?"

"Hey...friend," the warden stammered.

"So, um... Koroshi escaped from prison. And I need you to make something... Something that can help me from..." he took a deep breath.

"It's too hard to explain. I'll text you the details."

The dark hair man took one look at his phone and roared in laughter, "Oh, well that sucks ! You finally found out she's a supernatural ! And right after she escaped ! Horrible timing, don't you think, Henry ?"

The warden rolled his eyes, "Are you gonna help me or not ?"

"Oh you know how dangerous it is for me to just send you things. Police- Well other than you and your brother, will be all over me and arrest me and my gang. And you know how important she is to me."

"You're one of the country's most wanted criminal, next to Koroshi, and I didn't rat you out ! You owe me. Make this for me, and I promise I won't bother you again." the warden snapped.

"Very well." the dark haired man sighed.

"Under one condition."

"Name it."

"I can make this for you, but you can't use it on Koroshi."

"WHAT ? I THOUGHT OF THIS BECAUSE -"

"Trust me, warden. She's not a threat as a supernatural. I doubt she even knows about her powers. Even if she did, she wouldn't be able to control it."

"Fine. Send me to my office when you're done. But... If you're lying..."

"Oh, Henry. I know what I'm saying. You gotta trust me for once, man !"

"If anything happens to me..." the warden uttered, "Send it to Georgia State Prison. My brother is the warden there. He'll understand the situation human race is going through. " The warden hung up.

"Oh, I assure you, something will definitely happen to you soon." the dark haired man chuckled.

"Alright, the rest of you," he faced his gang.

"You guys deserve a break. You've been on duty for more than 12 hours, right ? Sleep, have a good night."

His followers nodded and existed the room.

"Being the boss sucks, huh ?" a voice rang in the dark room.

"Ah, Bryson. What are you doing here ? Shouldn't you be in prison ?"

"The prison sucks. I escaped." he emerged from the shadows.

"I saw Koroshi, by the way. I thought it was impossible for her to get hotter- But when I saw her yesterday, it took all my willpower not to take her right there."

"Please don't talk about her like that in front of me. Very disturbing."

"Sorry sorry." Bryson laughed.

"Why didn't she recognise me, though ? I had to play dumb and terrified when she threatened me !"

"I mean, you look...different nowadays. After being marked by your Alpha, you've changed a lot. Is it called a 'grow up' ?"

"G-grow up ?" Bryson scoffed.

"Dude, this just proves you're spending way too much time down here. It's called a glow up."

"Well, I can't exactly go walking around the streets without cops jumping on me, yeah ?"

"Fair point. So, she's a supernatural huh ?"

"How do you know ?"

"Come on. You should know that by now ! Supernatural have no problem sensing other super naturals."

"Right. I keep forgetting you're a werewolf."

"Anyway-" Bryson stated.

"How about you let me back in the gang ? i'm getting a but tired of running around and staying with my Alpha. I want some action !"

"Hmm."

"I know that look ! You're planning something." Bryson crossed his arms.

"Of course I'm planning something. I always am. If you want to be back in, kill the warden."

"Well, give me a gun."

The dark haired man smirked, "Oh, no, my friend. I think you should use those claws of yours. Don't want the police to find a bullet in his dead body and trace it back to me."

"Fine."

Meanwhile in Hell...

"She wakes."

"M-master !" Abaddon gasped and bowed.

"You've awakened ! Master had awakened !"

All the devils kneeled and bowed to their master.

"They have cast me away. They have put me to an eternal sleep, hoping I would never awake. And without me, you fools have been imprisoned... faded away from existence. But the most powerful of our kind wakes. And soon, so shall I. Almost. Almost."

An evil laugh erupted.

"Hail, our master, our Lord ! He has awakened !" the devils chanted.

"Wake, our Lord ! Wake !"

"We have breaking news ! All of the criminals, around 50 people, have escaped Arizona Prison.

And to make things worse, one of the criminals is Koroshi, also known as the silent killer.

Sadly, we only have have the mugshot of her from two years ago.

Everyone who knows what she looks like today are either killed or missing.

Also, Henry Kade, the warden of the same prison Koroshi was imprisoned in, has been killed yesterday.

He was found lying dead in the middle of a field, with large scratch marks across his chest.

The police believed he was attacked by an wild animal. That is for today..."
