I gritted my teeth as I wrap my shoulder with a cloth. Si Marshan na muna ang nagdrive dahil hindi ko mahahawakan ng mabuti ang manibela. I opened my compartment and took some injectable narcotics and injected it to my arm. 

"What's the plan?" Marshan asked me. 

"You stay here inside the car, matagal ka ng hindi nakapagtraining and I don't want to risk your life lalo't buntis ka." I said. She glanced at me sharply na para bang hindi siya payag sa sinabi ko. 

"Buntis ka rin naman!" 

"I can protect my womb and besides, having June, July, August is enough." I said. 

"Are you seriously gonna kill her?" 

Napabuntong hininga ako as I loaded my hand gun with bullets. No one can lay even just a finger on my children. Hindi ko sila patatawarin, hindi ko sila palalagpasin. Hindi niya dapat idinamay ang mga anak ko.

"I will..." I felt Marshan's hand on mine. Pinakalma ko ang sarili ko, knowing Leanna, she will not hurt my children. Pero yung takot na nararamdaman ng mga anak ko lalo na si Gretel ay hindi ko palalagpasin. They shouldn't feel threatened because I promised them I would protect them. 

We tracked their location base na rin sa update na pinadala ni June. They have been such faithful butlers. Wala pa kami noon sa McNeils ay kasa-kasama na sila ni Lolo. They've always watched over us from afar and the twins are very fond of them, ginawa pa nga namin silang mga ninong nung dalawa. 

I took my katana from my car's trunk. 

"S-Sigurado ka bang hindi na kita sasamahan?" Marshan asked me. 

"Hindi ako mapapatawad ni Raven kapag may nangyaring masama sayo." I told her. She bit her lower lip at naiiyak na tumingin sakin. 

"Then, stay safe." She hugged me. Napangiti na lang ako ng tipid as I tapped her back. Nakarinig na kami ng putukan sa loob ng isang abandonadong gusali. I pushed Marshan inside my car dahil bullet proof naman ito. 

Mabilis akong pumasok sa loob and prepared my gun and katana. Nagpapalitan na ng putukan sa loob habang buhat-buhat na nina July at August sina Hansel at Gretel. They are already fast asleep. 

I deflected all the bullets coming towards my direction habang diretso lang akong naglalakad papunta sa pwesto ni Leanna who is cowering. Nanlalaki ang mga mata nitong umiiyak dahil halos ubos na ang mga tauhan niya. 

My head went blank when I lowered my sword. Naramdaman ko ang pagbaon ng ilang bala sa katawan ko but I didn't feel any pain. Nakatayo ako sa harapan ni Leanna na nanginginig sa takot na nakatingin sakin. 

"H-How? T-They shot you! How can you walk like you are not in pain?!" She shouted at me. I stared at her coldly kasabay ng pagtahimik ng paligid.
