"The memory card is in that necklace. It is what we need." Ida answered softly.

"So we have to get that necklace now. Do you know where it is??" Mia asked.

She sighed and looked back at her. "It's with Kevin." She answered.

Mia's expressions changed. Her facial muscles tensed. "We have to find it." she said firmly.

"But, we don't know what it looks like," Ida replied, "The only thing we know about that necklace is that it was gifted by Charlie."

"I don't want excuses. I want that necklace. You have 1 hour to do that." Mia threatened Ida with her eyes. 

Ida nodded and left her house.

An hour passed by~ 

Ida entered Mia's house and went straight to the bunker. Mia was cleaning her pistols. "I hope you have good news" she eyed her through the rear sight of the pistol.

Ida ducked her head. 

***Gunshot echoes***

Ida opened her eyes which were pressed in the fear of getting hit by the bullet. She turned and saw a hole in wall behind her. 

"I'll find it out myself now." Mia got up from the chair while grabbing her pistol and bullets. 

"Wait. What are you planning to do?" Ida shouted. 

"Come with me." Mia replied and left the bunker. 

   ---------------- 

Mia, along with Ida, sneak into Kevin's house with both of their faces covered with masks and caps. She led her straight to his bedroom where she hoped to find that necklace. It was a considerable room with a huge wall shelf devoted to novels. Without wasting any time, both of them started looking for the necklace.

"Where is the damn thing," Mia clenched her teeth. 

***Main Door opening sound***

Mia swiftly turns to Ida whose eyes were popped out.

***Door closing and locking sound***

"That's bullshit Eric! Who told you that?" Kevin yelled as he closed the door.

"I swear to God Kev. You have got to try it out" Eric's eyes glittered. Kevin and Eric came into the hall while talking. 

Mia bit her lower lip while deliberating. "Ida" she uttered in a low tone.

Ida turned and stepped forward but her feet twisted and she fell on the book-shelf making a number of books to fall down onto the ground with a loud thud.

"What was that?" Eric jumped to his feet.

"I think there is a thief in our house." Kevin mumbled. Both of them got alarmed. 

"I think it's in your room." Eric mumbled. Kevin nodded in agreement. 

"Damn it!" Ida condemned. "What are we supposed to do now?" she whispered. 

Mia breathed out sharply. She eyed Ida angrily. "There" she uttered.

***Footsteps approaching***

Kevin and Eric stood out by the door to Kevin's room. Kevin looked at Eric, "On the count of three", he mouthed. Taking a deep breath Kevin placed his hand on the door's knob. "Three...Two...One-"
