"Fuck." Fraizer muttered under his breath as he continue to panic. Where could Michelle be? Is she alright? After confessing to her, this is now what happens next. Someone took Michelle away from him, his Michelle.

With everyone panicking he couldn't afford to panic either. Liam already called 911. They doesn't want their parents to get involved but it was bullshit. They now this is getting out of hand. The blood, Michelle, the clues. Everything. They were told to find her before it was too late.

But where exactly?

As frustrated as he can get, Fraizer punched the wall as hard as he could get. Nothing like before has happened like this one. Cali was panicking and balling her eyes out.

Rain suddenly spoke as he went to Fraizer's direction. "Frei, you need to chill out." He told him as calm as he could but with what was happening he couldn't and yet, instead of getting calmed he lashed out at Rain.

"Chill out? You want me to chill when the girl I love is in fucking danger?" He grabbed a handful of Rain's collar making everyone panic more. "Good for you, your girl right there is just crying like a bitch—" With that being said he got a punch coming from Rain and Fraizer himself didn't let him have his own way. They threw each other punches as the guys were trying to hold them down.

"Dude!" Lanz shouted at both of them as he gets Rain away from Fraizer.

"Frei, enough. Both of you, fucking quit it." Shoving the two away as Liam took Fraizer and let him calmed down for a second.

"You don't get to call Cali like that." Rain shot daggers at Fraizer, who on the other hand, narrowed his eyes and harshly took away his shoulders from Liam.

The atmosphere around them got much more thicker. This is bad. Everything that has been happening this day is bad. Fucking bad. They couldn't contact Michelle because her phone was lying down on the floor.

Muttering a curse, Daniel came out of the kitchen with his phone right in his left hand. He was looking for the right moment since he did heard their fight earlier but they need to know. Daniel sighing, "I told my dad." Making everyone's head turn around him. Everyone went panicking more.

"You informed him?!"

"Akala ko ba no parents are to know what's happening right now?"

"Fuck it, Lanz. Of course, our parents needed to know."

"BUT WE'RE FUCKED IF THEY FOUND OUT!"

"Everyone," Rain tried getting their attention but was busy fighting with each other. His grip onto Cali got tighter, losing his control, he ordered. "SHUT IT AND CALM THE FUCK DOWN!"

It was dead silent. Only their breaths and sobbing was the only thing they can hear themselves. Footsteps coming from Fraizer, he walked towards Daniel trying to control himself from a sudden outburts. He asks, "What did he say?" Without looking on the eye, he got a pat from the shoulders.

"He said that they're on their way and he needs everyone to calm down." Calm down. Now that's a word that makes his blood boil in this situation. Before Fraizer could even react. Daniel explained things more stuff. "Everyone in here probably knows that my dad is a General. We already had our plans laid out as soon as something like this happened, after all," He walked towards the table where there was wine pouring it into the wine glass. "Our very motive was to protect her anyways." He said, drinking the wine he poured.

Rain being confused knowing that Daniel have something up on his sleeve he asked him directly. "Get straight to the point. What are you pointing at?"

Daniel stared at Rain's eye, half-dead. Daniel couldn't afford to let Michelle go again. Not in this situation. Since everyone is already here might as well tell them the truth. He grinned at them taking a dart walking past them. "They say a cat have nine lives and while a person have only one. Everyone have their memories intact with them. The world is indeed a small place yet underneath it is a dark place where you don't wanna know. Guess what that is."

He waited for answers while throwing the darts and with him holding the last dart, he threw it, landing perfectly at the center. "It's the hideous truth that everyone runs away from." Looking at his last dart. He spoke. "Michelle and her family isn't someone who you should meddle with."

With the last word being said, Fraizer's phone rang, rushing over it hoping that it was Michelle but his heart dropped to see the name of the Caller ID. It wasn't Michelle rather it was Michelle's brother. Aljon.

Shit. He calmed himself down before answering the phone. Fraizer already expected this and it did came.

"WHERE IN THE FUCK IS MY SISTER, ZACKERMORE?!" The other line on the phone huffed.

"I said where is she?! I entrusted her to you, Zackermore. You had one fucking job. Bullshit." Then a cry came second. Her brother is now crying on the other line. He bit his lip and said.

"I'm sorry."

He didn't get any response, morning was coming and yet, here they are, tired and soulless. He's now starting to blame himself. It's all his fault. All his. The suddenly he heard a familiar voice on the other line.

"Aljon, gimme the phone. Rest, okay?" He heard a sigh and a little of ruffling. "Kuya, this is Eliot speaking. First and foremost, where are you all?"

He wanted to know why his brother was with her brother but it was useless to think about that first. Fraizer sighed and answered his question, "Batanes. In the rest house of the Cavalcante's."

"Got it. We'll be there very soon. Try to stay put and be together with the others."

And the other line hunged up on him. Fraizer sat next beside the couch. He ran his fingers on his black brownish locks while trying to stay calm as much as possible.

In this state, they know that if one parent knew then the other will know. It's an unbreakable chain, after all, their parents know and are friends with each other. They're in deep shit.

Today was too much for them. Everyone was blaming themselves. Everyone was panicking. They didn't know what to do. Even, Daniel himself. Up until now he's just trying to stay calm for the sake of the others. Knowing his dad, he'd get beaten up for losing his temper. Biting on his bottom lip he went to the kitchen to get some cold water followed by Lanz.

"Hey," Lanz started, leaning on the door frame with arms crossed. "Is it her?" Lanz asked Daniel nearing to cry any moment now but he knows he can't. He just fucking can't. Daniel nodded as an answer. Lanz sighed, going near to Daniel pulling him for a hug. Daniel was pretty much average for a height of a guy but they can't dent the fact that Lanz was much more taller than him.

"Cry. I'm here for you. It's okay to lose control even just for awhile." He said, making Daniel cry his heart out. (coz y not? fck toxic masculinity, let guys be ;>)

Back in the living room where there are so much tension. Jillian who suddenly got a phone call went outside of the house. No one cares with them minding their own business and with Jillian also having her own business. She left the innocent Julie inside the house.

Answering the phone, "Lopez." Jillian started.

"4 seconds before you can answer a damn fucking phone call. Still useless as ever I see." Jillian gritted hour teeth as she heard her comment. There was never a time that this bitch noticed something bad about her. She might be immune but she still gets to her nerve sometimes.

"Two jobs and failed. Tsk. Tsk. First, you let Michelle see your face, not like it fucking matters. Second, you didn't answer my call immediately."

Jillian was getting impatient. She wants everything to end already. All of this. The time has finally come, Jillian suppose. "What do you want?" Trying to refrain herself from lashing out.

"Tell Caino to spy. You know the drills and the plans. Do it."

Lopez ended the call and there Jillian stood frustrated. Combing her hair back she went back inside the house to order and do what she has to fucking do.

Daniel and Lanz coming out from the kitchen, the sun was rising up and everytime it rise up, the tension between all of them gets heavier and heavier. They need help. They don't even know if they're all safe. Anytime now they might go fully crazy.

Hinilamos naman ni Fraizer ang kaniyang kamay sa mukha dahil ilang minuto na lang ay mawawalan na ito ng control sa sarili. He badly wants to know if his Michelle is safe. On where in the world is she. If she even is alive. "Ah fuck." What was he thinking just now? She is. She gotta be. Liligawan pa niya ito eh.

With a sudden swift of air. They heard the swinging of a helicopter. Everyone went for the windows to look outside and there three helicopters made it's landing on the ground over the land of the Cavalcante's. Rain knows he's fucking dead. They also spotted cars coming over to the place, the army.

"They're here." Daniel muttered, going over to the front door to salute to his dad. As the door opened, they got intimidated by the aura that the General was emitting. Each parent went to hug their kids. And Daniel stood in front of his dad, saluting.

"Daniel." His father muttered, hugging him tightly as ever as possible. "You're not hurt now, are you?" His dad asked.

"Sir, no, sir." He softly said before hugging his dad back.

Cali's mom went for her and there she broke down. Rain's dad and mom went for him to hug him also and to ask if he was okay. "Ma, si Ate Sophie at Ravi? Nasaan sila?" Rain worriedly asked about his other siblings but his parents reassured that they are now currently in a safe place.

Lanz and Liam mom's were crying. I mean, they are cousins and their mom's are sisters. No doubt in that. Just like the other parents. They were worried sick about them and asked about what's happening and what happened.

As for Fraizer. His parents hugged him tight but instead of crying they smiled and said, "Thank God, you're okay." Fraizer smiled back at them, hugging them both tightly.

But when his eyes landed on Tita Mitch and Aljon. He have let go and went to their direction. He cried and said, "I'm sorry. It was all because of me. I-If I didn't invited her. Michelle, s-she—" His voice cracking with the suddent thought and action, he lost it. It breaks his heart to see what's happening.

But Mitch, on the other hand, held his hand and squeezed it tight. She held the young lad's cheek and wiped away his tears. "Don't cry. It's not your fault. It's no one's fault. This, what happened, we already saw it coming." Mitch said making all the younger ones look at them with pure confusion.

Making an entrance of one of the most known CEO's. It was no other than, CEO Alfred Illion Montegrial. He patted Fraizer's shoulder and said, "I'm very thankful of you for taking care of my daughter this whole time." It made them gaped and gasped but Daniel smiled.

"Tito, don't you think it's time for you guys to stop hiding in the dark?" Daniel asked them. Earning a little giggle which sounded exactly just like Michelle. How could he not noticed this? Michelle's father, who she was longing for the whole time is now standing in front of him, the same guy she bumped in fromt of their company.

"I think so too. Right, Ms. Silva?" He asked his wife. Making everyone much more shocked. "Correction. Mrs. Silva-Montegrial."

With that being said. Rain, the smartest out of them, asked, "You're basically telling us that Michelle is a Silva-Montegrial? Born out of those two powerful families? Companies? Tycoons? Empire?" Confusion was written all over his face and Aljon butted in.

"Yeah. You got a problem with us, Kuya Selvester?" Aljon teasingly asked and Rain shook his head.

"No, not at all."

While everyone was trying to process everything, Fraizer looked down at his brother, Eliot. "And you," Pointing at him. "You knew about this? This whole time?" He asked him but just shrugged.

The adults snickered but it isn't the time for that. General Dani Aguillar took all of their attention and said, "Everyone, gather up. Here's the plan."

With them laying out their plan. In some place in the Philippines. An abadoned and unused building stood and in anytime can collapse. The echoing of the clicking of heels can be hearf throughout the entire facility. Opening a door leading it to where they held Michelle captive who is still sleeping soundly tied on the pole.

There was no light in that room. Only the light bulb which can't even luminate the whole room was there. Lopez looked at her with full hatred. Proud at what's sitting right in front of her. This day had finally came. The day she awaited for a very long time. The long wait is now over for the final show is about to begin.

With Enrike by her side, she ordered him. "Wake her up, use that cold water sitting right beside her. Make sure na mararamdam niya yung lamig."

Labag man sa loob ni Enrike, he did what he was told to do. He was crying inside praying that this would already stop pero that wasn't enough to wake her up, that's why Lopez asked the other guy to punch her in the stomach making her wince in pain.

Michelle looking at her environment carefully with the help of the light coming from the light bulb she looked up where Lopez was sitted with a triumphant smile plastered on her face.

Michelle couldn't care less. She felt pain all over her body plus the coldness running through her body. She feel so tired wanting to sleep it all out. No voice can come out from his mouth anyway. Lopez getting irritated, she used her shoe to lift her head up from her chin then slapped her both left and right.

"Wake up, Princess. Time's up." Lopez spewed on her.

She glared at her but Michelle didn't flinched. Her mind couldn't process everything just yet. Although what she knows is that she is now currently tied to a pole and one of the people she adore is now sitting in front her, looking at her as if she was some piece of a garbage.

When she have finally could muster all the strength she have, Michelle asked her, "W-What do you want?" Coughing from the strong punch she got a little earlier.

Lopez cocked an eyebrow and laughed. "This bitch, can you believe it? She's asking me what I want from her." Then continued laughing like crazy again. Getting her ass off away from the chair. Grabbing a handful of Michelle's hair.

"I think what I want is for you to atone for your sins." Sins? Michelle knows she did a lot of crazy stuff but sins? What sin was she talking about?

After laughing like crazy. Lopez got tired and slapped her back and forth until her own hands hurt. From a distance, Enrike was hurting also, seeing he can't even do anything but just to watch. Hold it in for a bit longer help is coming on it's way, Enrike thought.

Then a loud whip echoed in the room making Michelle scream in pain. "If you can't remember anything then I'll make you remember it. By hook or by crook." Lopez said, whipping it again against her fragile body.

"Do you remember a friend of yours named Enrike?" Enrike flinched upon hearing his name. No. He wants to cry and help her but he knows he can't. He'll die first and if that happens he can't help her anymore. Second, he doesn't even know where they are. Only Lopez know where the fuck are they.

"Just so you know, you're so stupid to trust a guy like him." Lopez laughed at her thought once again but stopped when Michelle cutted her.

"Y-You don't know that. I'm not stupid to trust him. He–He's my friend." Struggling on ending her sentence. Enrike couldn't help but let tears flow from his eyes. Hearing those words coming out from her mouth made him cry more in pain.

Lopez hearing those words sounded so stupid making her cry out of laughter. "Stupid bitch doesn't even know his real name." Lopez said whipping her more.

Enrike wanted to shout and stop her but he can't. He just can't. The beatings continued and the two other bug guys hesistated for a while but also beated her up. "Did the two of you just hesitated back then?" Lopez sneered in absolute disgust and displease. "I can't fucking believe this. OUT NOW!" He ordered the two and did what they were told.

"Fucking mercy." The sound of the whip once again echoed in the room and soon after blood was dripping out of Michelle's body. Marks were seen. Her dress is now torned off.

"You know, Michelle, if you were to trust someone. You should know their names first before you know who they are because if they can't tell you their names, then they're hiding something."

Lopez threw the whip away and grabbed Michelle's face and whispered something before her making her eyes widen and her world shattering upon her. What she heard, it can't be true. No. "Stop lying!"

With how Michelle shouted, Lopez slapped her really hard. "No one dares to raise their voice on me." Acting all angry, Lopez smiled. Calling for Enrike.

"Get that alcohol and come here," With that order he hesitated for a bit but he have to. Shit. When he heard his name, he knows he have to give it to her. "Enrike."

Michelle's eyes widen at the sudden call out. "Oh wait, Enrike who? I forgot, your real name is Eike." Lopez giggled snatching the alcohol from his hands.

Enrike flinched. Wanting to shout, cry and breakdown in front of them. As soon as Enrike made eye contact with Michelle, he knew, he doesn't deserve someone like her. She was smiling. Damn it, she was smiling sweetly at him making him want to melt.

He mouthed, I'm sorry.

And what he got was, Run.

Run. And leave her behind? The idea of escaping had never occured to Enrike, or more of like, Eike. Ever since then, Lopez have already got a grasp of his and he knew if he leave, he'll die. But at this point, he was craving for freedom. Freedom of being happy without a gun pointing at your neck.

Lopez noticed how they were talking to each other letting her look at her back. It was a crying Eike for fuck's sake. "Hugo," Lopez started and he knows he's done for. "I trained you for 19 years and yet here you are crying. What's with the fuss?" She asked, slapping him both side by side.

"Get out." Eike was trembling. His ears were ringing. Not knowing what to do. A shout came for him. "I said get the fuck out!"

He did. Eike threw one last glance at Michelle before going out of the room. He tried stifling his and cry and after breaking down. Eike knows he have to get up, it was way too early for him to this. Like literally way too early. It was nearing afternoon already. He went out of the building, running away from it, but he'll back. He just have to know where they are.

3 hours had already passed by and torturing still continues. The bruises and marks on Michelle's body got much more worse than before Eike left her.

Lopez is now starting to get annoyed ever than before. She took a sit right in front of her, lighting a cigarette in her hand. Inhaling and blowing it on Michelle's face. "Alam mo, Michelle, I actually envy you."

Crossing her legs, she looked up at the dark ceiling reminicising everything. "You get to live your life as a princess. Your parents doesn't blame you, in fact, they love you very dearly." Lopez giggled remembering her childhood. "Akin kasi everytime my mom sees me, she would always cry. Saying that I was a fucking accident. If I weren't born edi sana she'd be with the person she love."

Michelle was starting to feel numb. She was also now hungry. Hindi pa siya nakain simula kaninang umaga. The pain she's currently feeling just hurts so bad, not even feeling it anymore but she knows it's there. It hurts.

"I told you earlier, know their name's first before trusting them. The world has a lot to offer. May it be secrets or the truth itself."

Lopez tapping her left heel on floor was the only thing you can hear. The smoke is now starting to suffocate Michelle.

"The person that my mom loves?" Her tapping of the heel stopped. Inhaling and blowing another smoke into the air before pushing it to the skin of Michelle. "Is your father."

Michelle looked at her with mere confusion and anger. "Leave my father alone." She spoke. How dare her speak ill of her father. Hindi man pa niya ito nakikita pero she loves him dearly. With how her mom tell them stories about their dad is just way too heart melting.

"Oh? No." Lopez stood starting to roam around inside the room. "Say Michelle, what's your name?"

Although Michelle couldn't see Lopez, she was glaring at her. Pin poiting her location where her voice was coming from. "Michelle Adellaine Cruz." It echeod.

Then the heels stopped clicking and what came next was Lopez standing right next to her, eyes bloodshot. As she neared her, she starts to strangle her neck.

"I told you, the world has a lot to offer. Cruz? Engrave this in your mind." Lopez was smiling and Michelle is now starting to lose consciousness. She was trying hard to inhale some air but the strangling was way too hard.

"You're real name is Michelle Adellaine Silva-Montegrial."

Lopez loosen her hands around from her neck. Michelle was gasping for air. Saliva dripping from her mouth. She was panting.

"How I despise those two names, those two families. And you," Lopez pointed at Michelle. "You were the fruit of their love. Along with Michael Aljon Silva-Montegrial."

"Good job at making a low profile this whole time." Clapping as she was circling her. "What do you even know about yourself? Your whole life? It was a lie. Fabricated."

Stopping in front of her. She kicked her hard making her cough blood next. "Your dad? Alfred Illion Montegrial. You met him. Right infront of your family company."

Michelle didn't know how to respond. It fucking can't be. What was she saying? It was far from how her mom described their dad. "L-Lies." She told Lopez making her laugh.

"Dear, I'm not lying. It's the truth. You were the first born daughter of Mitch Leian Silva and Alfred Illion Montegrial. Born out from those two powerful families."

She was glaring at Lopez. What in the world is she talking about? Isang normal na pamilya lang sila. Nakatira sa isang subdivision. Kaya paano.

"Fine. I'll tell you the whole truth as we waste our time."

Roaming around the room once again since he can't stand bearing staring at the face of Michelle. She roamed around this room.

"It was around the 5th of September. You were still a little kid back then. And at that time, my mom met up with your dad trying to get him back. But it was no use kasi kung gumana man edi sana wala ka rito." Balling her fisting while gritting her teeth. Lopez tries to remain calm.

"It was you who took that precious life away from me. I was an accidentm made back then in their college days. My mom who got pregnant and your father, who used to be my mom's lover, who didn't know about anything broke up with my mom knowing what happened."

Lopez snorted at the thought of, "Fuck foolish love."

Getting another cigarette in the pack. The smoke enveloped the whole room once again. "After I was born, nalaman na lang ni mama na Alfred was already married and have two daring siblings."

"Shut up." Michelle muttered under her breath. Pero it wasn't enough for Lopez to hear so she continued blabbering about things.

"That night of September 5, as your family was running away from those people who wants to get their hands on you, a car crashed happened. Somehow by miracle, you guys survived it but you two were in coma for months having some memory lose about your childhood."

Childhood. What was there in her childhood. He used to dream about a dog with two guys in a garden. But that was it, other than that, none. Wala na. She doesn't have any memories on her childhood. She couldn't put a finger on it. If it it was ever true then why, why did they lie?

"Daniel Franz Aguillar. Pinsan mo nga pala. If you want your childhood to be answered, go ask him." Walking in front of the door, the sound of the doorknob twisting. "I gave them 24 hours to look for you and if they fail, I'll kill you right here. I won't dispose your corpse just," Opening the door. "Throw it in front of your company as a gift."

And then left the room where Michelle is trying to hold her sanity.

Back in the rest house in the Cavalcante's. Everyone is still in shock to hear the real story. While stirring the coffee that Cali is making, the exuction of the plan is still on hold. First, they need to know where they hid her.

Cali sat right next Rain, who's now helping Daniel to know their whereabouts. "Any progress?" Fraizer asked but Daniel can only shake his head.

"None."

With it being said. Daniel stretched out his hand high up in the air while groaning. Taking the coffee offered by Cali. He thanked him and watch as people leave the couch leaving Daniel and Fraizer alone.

As he sips on the cup, the rain started pouring harder. Looking at the clock they know they are losing time. Daniel sighed, "Frei, getting jealous with me won't get you nowhere." He started making Fraizer look at him with an arched eyebrow.

"Don't give me that look. I know." He told Fraizer making him sigh.

"Cousins?" Fraizer asked him again and Daniel nodded.

"Yeah." Daniel smiled and placed the cup down. "I saw you guys kissing by the beach last night. Kayo na?"

Fraizer snorted while smiling. "Not really. Soon. Ligawan ko pa eh."

Daniel's mouth formed a letter 'O' upon hearing the words coming out from Fraizer. "She likes chocolates, sweets. Kaso she can't open the wrapper." Daniel giggled. "My childhood became memorable because of those two." Eyeing Aljon who's chatting with Eliot.

"I entrust her to you." Tapping the right shoulder of Fraizer as Daniel looks at his work once again.

Fraizer remembering how he he got jealous because of Daniel seemed ridiculous now. So they were cousins. Didn't know that until now.

Jillian came out of the room where the General was with and Lino along with Casty. They were interrogating her. And just now, something mind blowing came upon us.

Lino and Casty saluted to the General before going to our place. Slouching on the couch right next to Daniel. "Gimme." Lino ordered. Daniel didn't hesitated and gave him the laptop.

Coming forward to their place was Daniel's older brother. Corporal Agent Dein Aguillar. Hovering over the couch he looked at Lino, mostly known as, "Caino, give me an update." And so he did.

Not too long ago. We found out that Lino, known as Caino, was a spy along with Casty whose name is actually Kiff.

"Chill out, Aguillar." Kiff spoke taking off the contact lenses he wore this whole time. Revealing his emerald eyes. "What's up with the suspense?" He asked before laughing as he continues to play with his knife.

Dein and Kiff were never in good terms. Dein is much more organized and Kiff? Kiff was way too playful for the job but he can't dent that he was good at his own job. As for Caino. Caino is much more reserved than those two.

"That Ferrer. How are you so sure that you can trust her?" Grinning like a mad man. He asked Dein, massaging his temples.

"She already confessed, we took the bait. If it is real or not, then fuck it. If we do get a phone call then there's that." Dein said helping Caino do the findings.

"Fuck it, he says. More of like, I'mma fuck Caino 'till he faints." Kiff winked. Laughing at everyone's reaction. Running away from them before he gets killed.

Caino who was blushing and Dein wanting to kill Kiff this instant and Daniel with Fraizer who can't believe what they just heard. Daniel looked back at them. Tapping his kuya's shoulder.

"Mahal kita, kuya." He said. And slung his arms around Caino who was still blushing. "Hey, bayaw." He teased earning a smack from his brother.

Kiff getting bothered. He went to the twins place. Putting the knife on the table as he continues to play with it. "Ferrer, what are you hiding up in your sleeves?" He asked smiling.

"I was with them this whole time. Ikaw? Whose side are you in?" Threatening the girl as she glared at him.

"None. As much as you want, gusto din namin siyang makulong. Worse, die. We want freedom. So fuck off." Jillian told him.

Looking around the room. All of the kids have their parents with them. But them? They doesn't have anyone. Jillian and Julie is now under the care of their aunt. Since Jillian can't rely onto them that much. She sold her soul to Lopez.

"If you want something, ako na lang. Leave Julie alone." Standing up and going to the place where Julie is now sleeping. Julie for Jillian was way too precious for this world. She can't afford to lose her lalo na at siya na lang ang natitirang meron sa kaniya.

As they were doing business. Jillian suddenly got a phone call having a Caller ID under Eike's name. He quickly went for the General and answered the call.

"Eike, asan ka?" Kaagad na bungad ni Jillian rito.

Everyone was frantic to know where are they. Mostly Michelle's parents. The other line panted before answering.

"Cavite. They're in Cavite. There's this abandoned building in Cavite. Inside the forest. Bilisan niyo. Michelle might not take the torturing any longer."

The General took the phone from Jillian's hand. "This is General Aguillar speaking. Is this Eike Hugo? Held hostage once by Lopez?" He asked.

Then a cry came from the other line. "Y-Yes. Please. Save us." Trying to stifle the cry, he continued. "Save her." Then the crying continues.

"We can do that but you must cooperate with us. Tell us where exactly you are." He ordered him and we heard a ruffle from the other line before he agreed.

Caino with Dein and the rest of the team are now tracking their location and in just seconds with the help of the signal that Eike's phone was emitting, they tracked them along with the said building.

"Sir, we've found the location."

Caino told them and showed where they are. Then everyone started packing and doing their jobs. The General was ordering and the plan is now getting executed.

"Opaña." He called for Kiff. Smiling like an idiot. "Sir, yes, sir."

"Get your guns and bring Caino with you." Kiff nodded and went taking all of the needed stuff.

"Rossi." General called for Kyrone. "Villazquez, Alarcon." Symuel and Tyrein going upfront.

"We need you as back up. You three help the kids get Michelle away from Lopez."

"Sir, yes, sir." They said in unison and took the guns.

The rest of the teens gathered up. Looking at the General with full anticipation. "Daniel, I expect you to lead them. As we distract them, go and find Michelle and take her away."

With full confidence he took the order and told the other guys on what to do. Plans are now laid out. Helicopters getting ready for flight.

"Cali, and you twins. Sa likod lang kayo for emergency. We guys, got it." He ordered them.

Before Cali could go, she hugged rain very tight, kissing him on the lips. "Come back in one piece, magpapakasal pa tayo." Rain laughed and agreed. Letting go Cali's hands.

"And as for you, Xerna. I'll signal you when." He said before joining the others.

Doing what they have to do, they took their time as night finally came. Lopez was already getting bored after torturing Michelle for hours now. She called the other two guys in.

"Rape her." Lopez ordered the two.

Michelle keeps on shouting. Calling out for help. Anything but that. She already had enough. Tears are now falling down her cheeks like flood. "No!" Echoing in the whole building.

"Yes, dear. I'll let your family go through the hell I went." She told her laughing as she watch how Michelle continues to fight back.

She was crying. She can't do anything. She was way too tired and worn out already. As they were holding here, so near on getting her. She muttered a cry and door opened throwing out a panting Caino and Kiff. They stopped watching them and Lopez watching them confused.

"Stop." She ordered those two holding Michelle. Lopez went forward but before she can speak Caino and Kiff were already speaking. "I-Intruders. They're here." Caino spoke, hearing gunshots from the outside.

Lopez having enough man to back her plans up was still angered. She told them to follow her. Not letting it to go their way.

Michelle sitting and crying for help in there made Fraizer rush inside the room, hugging her tightly. "Baby, I'm here. Shh." Fraizer comforted her. They might wanna comfort her more further but they can't.

"Michelle, can you walk?" Caino asked her and Michelle tried standing up but her legs gave up on her.

"Fraizer, carry her and bring her out of the building as soon as possible." Caino told him and let Rossi help them to get their way out of the building. Running along outside they knew it wasn't an easy way.

There were more men of Lopez waiting for them. Shooting at every angle. Rossi couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath as Fraizer was hiding with Michelle. Holding her delicately. Looking at the bruises and marks she got made him wanna cry in pain and just do the same thing to that person.

Rossi kept on firing. He was skilled but not as skilled as Kiff. That lad was a madman and this kind of stuff. Firing his gun, he couldn't help but to also get bruises from the out numbered men. The earpiece buzzed.

"Fuck, we need back-up." Rossi told as he went hiding. He can't let those two get in danger.

They heard more gunshots both from the upper and lower floor. Gunshots everywhere. The earpiece buzzed again.

"Need my help, Rossi?" Kiff asked on the other line ad well as some few gunshots.

"Stop talking and get your ass here." There were no response to that. The General was also talking from the earpiece and some more from their team.

As he kept on firing, Caino and Kiff came. Firing like some crazy mad men at every angle. Rossi helped them and told Fraizer to leave.

He took the order and went running. Michelle held tight on Fraizer's shirt with all of the things happening. Reassuring her that everything's gonna be okay. As he can finally see the outside. He ran much more faster seeing the rest of the team.

He went running and running until they finally came back. They told the General that they got out safely and need back-up and to look after Lopez.

But luck wasn't on their side. Behind Fraizer was Lopez pointing a gun at them. Before they could point their gun at her, she spoke. "Move or I'll shoot the gun at her head." They stopped.

The earpiece buzzed hearing the General on the other side. "All of the floors are cleared. Looks like she's on the ground already. Team, stay alert." It was too late. The General was too late. He rushed to the ground and saw Lopez with a gun.

"I know you're behind me, General. I'm repeating it again, move or I'll shoot it." She threatened. Their hearts were thumping like crazy. They were fucked. Parents were crying and their hands are getting wet. Sweating cold.

They might have outnumbered her but the fact she have a gun pointing at her, they must stay put or the worse might come. Lopez eyes wandered around and saw the guy who made his life a living hell.

"If it isn't Alfred Illion Montegrial. Anmeron? Ba't kumpleto pamilya niyo? Family gathering? Unfair naman ata." She took a step forward.

"You. You made my life a living hell. Remember, Xeria, your ex? Ako nga pala yung anak niya." Gasps were heard mostly from the parents.

"Yeah, ako nga, the one and only, Xerna Javier Lopez."

A tear trickled down Mitch's eye. Placing a hand on her mouth. "If it wasn't from you, choosing that girl beside you instead of my mom. I wouldn't be living like this. She cursed me to death!" The emotions that Xerna was containing this whole time has now overflown. She was crying like a lost child.

"She cursed me to death saying I was a fucking accident that shouldn't have been born! I was the cause of her depression! I was a bad luck. My family threw me out." Crying. Tears continuously flowing down. Along with them feeling her pain. "I just wanna be loved but why," Her voice cracked feeling all the pain.

"Why does the world have to be so unfair? I want her to be happy. I never got her to be happy. She was always crying because of me."

Love. How foolish. Love was something that everyone gets before they were born. Mahal ka na agad ng mga magulang mo nasa sinapupunan pa lang. Pero siya. She never got it. Her parents despised her. "If this would make her happy then I." Ready to shoot the gun, someone shielded Michelle.

Then a loud bang deafened them making everyone shocked. It was only a matter of time before they could see that person falling on their own blood.

Michelle cried shouting his name. "Fraizer!" Before another two loud gunshots came and everything went black.
