A tear escaped as I trembled. It was my second mission in the agency. It was a case of child trafficking. According to a witness pinapapunta ng mga mokong na yun ang mga buyer nila dun sa lokasyon at dun pinapapili kung sinong bata ang bibilhin o gagahasain. My mission was to track and report. But I went beyond.

Because of my selfishness and cowardness, when we came back ,Teresa was already lying on the floor, naliligo sa sarili niyang dugo. Because of that incident, I nearly quit the agency. The guilt was always following me. It's like I killed Teresa myself. Kung sinama ko lang siya, kung di lang ako nagpadala sa takot ligtas sana siya ngayon.

So from then on, I promised, I won't let anyone die because of me. Mamamatay muna ako bago may mangyari pa sa kanila. But this doesn't make my guilt to be totally erased. Nightmares always follow me. And I deserved it.

"Aw, poor brat you remember her after all do you?" Humahalakhak pa siya while I tremble on my seat.

"Well, the truth is. I killed that stupid girl myself"

Agad na napaangat ang ulo ko. Napangisi siya nang makita ang ekspresyon ng mukha ko.

"You know, in the start I was the best. But you came. You were the apple of the eye, because you're Mr. Chitoge's daughter. And I was left out" Dumilim ang mukha niya.

"How crazy right? How after a new doll arrived, the most favorite doll was now discarded, thrown in a corner, only used if needed" She smiled bitterly.

"So I have to do something. Nalaman ko ang misyon mo at sinundan kita without anyone noticing. Nang makita kong pumasok ka sa isang kwarto. Sinabihan ko ang isang bantay"

My eyes widened.

"Yes, Misaki. I helped them! They discovered you pero ang bobobo nila hindi ka nila nahuli. Kaya binalikan ko yung kwarto na pinasok mo at nakitang may bata don. Nakakarindi yung iyak niya tapos sabi pa niya 'Babalikan ako ni Miss Pretty Cool spy!'" She rolled her eyes in disgust.

My eyes began to water.

"So what did I do? I killed her Misaki. I shot her!" Tumawa siya habang umiyak ako sa upuan. How could she? Teresa was too young and innocent to die!

Di ko mapigilan ang mga luha na dumadaloy sa mata ko. She didn't deserve to die.

Yinuko ko ang ulo ko at nagpatuloy sa pagiyak. Tumutulo ang luha ko sa jeans pero balewala lang yun sakin. Biglang bumukas ang pinto at nakita ko si Raku na may tulak tulak na lamesa. May mga torture devices dun, and my mind seemed to be alert.

"So where should we start?" Raku's voice boomed in.

Nakita kong nagpumiglas na si Cross at Daniel sa mga puwesto nila. I have to do something. I have to calm down. Teresa wouldn't want this. She would want me to kill this bitch than to see me weak.

I heaved a sigh and looked behind Ivy na patuloy parin sa pagtawa. I gritted my teeth to stop myself from pouncing at her.

I hate this bitch.

Sa likod niya, nakita kong nakapatong sa lamesa ang bag ko, payong ni Cross at ang mga devices ni Dr. Utotino. I closed my eyes as I formulate my plan.

Kumuha si Ivy ng isang whip sa lamesa ni Raku.

"Now, this would do it" She says slowly. Bago pa siya nakalapit ay naputol ko na ang tali at tumalon na ako sa silya patayo. Dahil sa gulat di siya naka react kaagad at di ko na sinayang panahon as I ran and slipped stealthily to the table

"No!" sigaw ni Ivy na nakakuha ng atensyon ni Raku. Aatakihin na nila sana ako but I already retrieved my gun and shot it on Cross' and Daniels' chains as they were set free. Doon naman sa kanila napatuon ang atensyon ni Raku.

Yumuko muna ako para makaiwas sa whiplash ni Ivy bago inahagis ang payong kay Cross. Hinugot ko ang samurai swords ko nang makitang wala na ring bala ang baril ko.
Inihagis ko ang isa kay Daniel na hindi naman sinalo.

"Misaki naman! Puputulin mo ba ang kamay ko?" reklamo niya pa and I stopped myself from rolling my eyes.

Busy naman si Cross sa pag depensa sa sarili niya at di siya makainitiate ng command dahil sa patuloy na pag atake ni Raku sa kaniya.

"Aw, you can't bring me down Misaki" Ismid naman ni Ivy na di ko namalayang nakakuha na rin nang espada niya habang ang whip ay nasa sahig na. I got on my fighting stance and smirked.

"Oh I can't bring somebody down"I paused. "Who's already low"

Para naman siyang na trigger doon as she charged at me. I didn't mean it but the look on her face was worth saying it.

I ducked and used my sword to defend myself. She charged again but I still blocked her without even using much energy.

I twirled her sword using mine with force upwards at nabitawan niya ito. Her sword went to a corner na malayo sa kaniya. At sa Barbie and the Three Musketeers ko lang yun natutunan, mind you.

Kinuha niya ang baril niya mula sa gilid at tinutukan niya ako.

"Die bitch!" pinaputukan niya ako but I quickly rolled on the side. I jumped on the table as a flipped towards her. I aimed at her hand and swished my sword suddenly feeling my anger towards her at what she'd done to Teresa.

"AH! SHIT!" Sigaw niya nang makita ang putol na na kamay niya. Nahulog na ang baril niya sa sahig kasama ang kamay niya. Umagos ang dugo mula sa putol na kamay niya as I pointed my sword at her neck.

Napaiyak siya sa sakit habang umaatras sakin.

"You know, I could just easily kill you" I smiled at her. And this time, she was the one who trembled. "Cut your throat with this blade"

Napasinghap siya nang sa pag atras niya dingding na ang sumalo sa kaniya. I traced my blade on her throat slightly drawing blood making her whimper.

"Or..." I trail off, sliding the blade sidewards. "I could cut your head off" She trembled and cried.

"No, no, please, Misaki, I'm sorry" Pagmamakaawa niya. I raised my blade. But as soon as I took a swing and nearly hit her I redirected it to my side and it pierced through the stomach of my attacker. So he tried to sneak on me. Bastard. Doon ko lang nalaman na nakapasok na pala ang ibang mga tauhan ng gang.

Binalikan ko nang tingin si Ivy as I withdrew my blade from the man's stomach. He slumped on the ground coughing blood. But I didn't mind him. Based on my trajectory I didn't hit a major organ or vessel so he should be fine.

Pinahid ko ang madugong blade ko sa dress ni Ivy habang nangangatog parin siya habang akay-akay ang kamay niya.

"But I'm not like you" I finished.

I left her and she slumped on the ground as I took another member out.
