Ilya sighed as he looked around the wreck club. It wasn't good at all. He lost lots of money with this. And it's a good thing that no one gets hurt. But he didn't care about that shit. He cared about his business.
"How long are we going to fix this shit?" Ilya asked Jacob as he turned to him.
"It'll take six months," Jacob said. "By the way, I think I found the hacker. She's Moira Mondragon-Wilson. Alanis's wife."
"I knew it." Ilya gritted his teeth. "Are you sure that she's the only one?"
"No." Jacob sighed. "I think she's the Shadow. And there are the kids as hackers. I'm sure that Freya's twins are one of them. They are the one that uploaded the file about Francisco as their stocks plummeted. And now, the Gomez's are falling. Martin is so stupid."
"Kill them," Ilya said. "I have no use to them anymore." He left the entrance of the club. Jacob followed him to the car.
"Are you sure about that?" Jacob asked.
"Yes," Ilya nodded. "I think, I need to go to with someone powerful than the Gomez. Someone that has clean records." Their bodyguard opened the back door of the sedan as Ilya hopped in. Then, Jacob followed him inside.
Jacob showed Ilya the messages that Moira sent. Ilya scoffed.
"I'll put them down," Ilya said.
"Sure, you will," Jacob smirked.

Casey continued sketching on her sketchbook. Her visions are getting real each day. She had no choice but to just take it. It's exhausting and it's making her nauseous.
Zendaya sat down beside her. Casey didn't join the hide and seek and Zendaya choose to hide in her room. She looked down at her sketchbook.
"Can I also use your other sketchbook?" Zendaya asked.
Casey nodded and Zendaya took a canvas and started sketching the vision that she saw a while ago. The two kept on scribbling on the canvas with the charcoal pencil and they didn't notice the time until they are done.
They exchange and they looked at their works.
"Damn!" Zendaya said. "You are so detailed."
"I know." Casey shrugged.
"What is this?" Zendaya asked and pointed a coffin-like capsule.
"That's the future," Casey said. "Cyra's invention. Someone will betray her."
"Shit," Zendaya mumbled. "Should we tell her?"
Casey shrugged.
"This will get out of the hand. Eagle Empire won't attack until they are strong enough." Casey lay down and massaged her forehead. "And what's with your vision?" Casey asked.
"It's someone powerful that would try to bring us down," Zendy mumbled. Zendaya lay down with her. "I think the Eagle Empire has contact with people who worked in the government."
"They surely do." Casey sighed. "I think we should deal with another shitty problem."
Zendaya laughed.
"Yup."
"Zen, I think Cyra's invention is too risky."
"How risky?"
"Her invention is perfect. She had trial and error and everything, but once that this leaked—it will be more chaotic."
"How chaotic?" Zendaya turned her head to her.
"Well, our enemies will deliberately use it for their good."
"Then, we should warn Cyra about it. She might've made something about it." Zendaya had decided. "And," Zendaya sat up. "I think Martin Gomez will die anytime."
Zendaya thought about the pros and cons. If Martin Gomez dies, then, people would point to the Dragon Empire. So, Zendaya immediately left the room and saw Timothy searching around. She hides and then, waited until Timothy passed by. She's not wearing any shoes so, she ran without making any sound downstairs to the patio.
"Mom," Zendaya said in a low voice. "This is a red flag. I need to talk to you."
"Okay," Andy unwrapped herself from her husband as she stood and followed Zendaya to the corner. "What is it?"
"Mom, I think Martin Gomez is working with Ilya. Now, that he's useless, he's going to kill Martin inside the cell. They might point to us. This is bad, mom."
Andy thought about it and nodded. Andy called Moira and Andel as they approached them.
"Let's put Joey Gomez and Martin Gomez into security," Andy said. Zendaya left like a wind when Timothy is coming.
Andy looked around for Zendaya and she massaged her forehead.
"I think we won't have a good sleep tonight," Andy told.
"Yeah," Moira groaned. "I just want to have a good s.e.x tonight. Damn those assholes." Moira mumbled. She approached Alanis. "Al-babe take care of our Princess. I have some work to do."
"Sure." Alanis reached her lips, and Moira left.
"Baby girl, me too." Andel kissed Ellen's lips. "Please look after Lizzi. I'll just do some work." Ellen nodded.

Laurence stayed in the rooftop feeling down as he reached his phone to check few chatmates in secret messaging. They are sending nudes and whatever it was. He smiled and looked at a few videos that the girls and boys sent.
He felt someone tiptoeing and probably going to scare him. He turned around and she shrieks. She reached her chest and she frowned at him. He laughed.
"Are you trying to scare me?"
"I am." She sighed and approached him. She leaned on the par.a.p.et and admired at the beautiful wide garden of the old mansion.
"So, you plan to go to Julliard, we should make a record." Laurence stood beside her. He put his hand over her head.
"Okay,"
"You also need to join further contests. What instrument that you wanted to use with you?"
"I can play any." She told.
"I know you could. You are gifted."
"I like this hide-and-seek game." She smiled up at her. "There's Timothy who is probably searching for Zendaya. She's just close to him a few meters away but he still couldn't find her. They are adorable. I hope that I'll find a man like Timothy or Christian."
"Sure, you will."
"To be the truth, this family is the best."
Laurence grinned.
"I am happy that I was part of it." She leaned to him. "You, as my big brother." She wrapped her arms around his waist. "I write songs for each of them."
"I want to hear it."
"Nah, not a single word." She teased.
"Why not?"
"It's not done yet."
Laurence patted her head.
"I'm sleepy." She mumbled.
"Then, go to sleep."
"But they are still looking for us. I don't want to be their slave."
Laurence chuckled.
"Don't worry. Let's go. Before they find us here."

Kale scratched his head. Where in the hell did Laurence hide? He knew that Laurence would hide in the rooftop, but it seemed like it's too late. He's not there anymore. Kale went back to the third floor and checked the rooms again. It's already one in the morning and they haven't found them yet. Thirty-minutes left last chance for the seekers to find the hiders.
He went to the game room and relaxed there. Somehow, he felt how to nearly die. It was nothing at all not until he wakes up feeling like he's been stabbed and hit again and again. Maybe he'll choose to be dead than being paralyzed. It's hard to be paralyzed and it means that you have no future at all when you can't move.
But thank the lord for Cyra's micro-bots. Those nanomites repaired his cells easily. It's still in his body and maybe, he should stay it there forever. He's just afraid to get into an accident again and feel paralyzed.
"I need to have s.e.x." Kale suddenly realized. His phone chimes and he checked it. Cyra?
Cyra: You can't have s.e.x. It's not tested.
"Seriously? I can't have s.e.x?"
Kale typed to reply to Cyra.
Kale: Why can't I have s.e.x?
Cyra: I don't want to lead to any accidents to people. If your s.p.e.r.m dive to the egg, then create a living thing. It'll be a very dangerous thing if the nanomites are with your s.p.e.r.ms and the baby will be mutated.
Kale: I will use a condom.
Cyra: Not for two months. Wait for two months.
"Two months?!" Kale scoffed and put his phone away. He stopped when he felt a presence. He walked toward the curtain. Laurence pushed Kale down. Laurence came out, and he hauls Esme to his arm and left quickly. "They are here!" Kale screamed, and then, they run to out of the game room.
<><><><>
They met Kade on the way, but Laurence pushed Kade and run off like a ninja. Some started running, and Laurence is taking Esme away. So they won't get caught.
The timer starts, and Laurence put down Esme. Someone grabbed them and pushed them to the secret room. Zendaya!
"I don't plan to become their servant," Zendaya mumbled to them. Esme covered her mouth, and Laurence covered his mouth.
Zendaya turned on the light from her smartwatch and she led the way down to the bas.e.m.e.nt. But they didn't go there further.
"How long are we going to hide?" Laurence asked.
"Someone is protecting the base," Zendaya said. She set a timer. "Only ten minutes left, and they are doomed," Zendaya said.
"How about the little girls?" Esme asked.
"They are on our side. They had fallen asleep to one of the secret rooms." Zendaya mumbled. "I'm going to check them later."
