"Arm's POV"

"What are you doing here, Arm?"

"I brought a document to Khun Vegas."

"He went after you at the main family mansion."

"Are you serious?!Damn...my phone is dead...Is it Pete home?"

"Pete?!"

"Yeah...I want to say hi to him...We haven't seen each other for a while."

"Well..."

"Something wrong, Nop?"

"No...nothing...he's already sleeping with Venice. Come another day. I'll text Khun Vegas that you're heading back to the main family mansion."

Something is fishy...Nop rushes to push me toward the exit, but I dodge him and run for the stairs.

"PETE! PETE!"

I call out for Pete as I climb the flights of stairs. Nop runs after me threatening to shoot.

I know he won't.

Suddenly I stop at the top of the stairs and motion for Nop to be quiet.

"Don't you have bodyguards up here?" I whisper to him

"Yes, we have..."

" So why didn't anyone come to hold me?!"

"..."

Nops speaks softly through the eavesdropper and makes a worried expression.

"So..."

"Nobody answers me...not even from the control room."

We both draw our guns.

"Where's Pete, Nop? What is happening?"

"Khun Vegas ordered Pete to stay locked in his room until further notice."

"But...why??"

"So that he doesn't run away and can be protected here."

"Protected? Why? Can Pete defend himself in that room?"

I notice Nop's look of shame and concern.

"He's in chains, Arm."

"FUCK! What direction?"

"Go straight the hall, Arm! I must call Khun Vegas."

Before Nop can deal to Vegas, a bullet goes through the device.

A shower of bullets greets us in the hall and gas bombs turn everything white.

"To the floor!" I yell, pulling Nop down.
