Jones' eyes widened when he saw Jason unleashing a gun, with his hand on the trigger guard already. And in a split second, a whip-crack sound exploded out of the barrel.“Jones!!!!!!” Kenny yelled at the top of his voice when he saw Jones pacing towards Jason, immediately the gun was fired.Coming to the realization that the gun shot he heard was fired towards Kenny. He quickly lunged at Jason.They both crashed to the ground together, rolled together through the wet, dirt, and the thorns and the broken branches, tearing and punching and growling at each other. A large tree root hit Jones in the head, making his ears to ring. Jones got more advantageous with the punches as they rolled down the broken branches.Jason was looking rashly for his pocket gun but couldn't remember where it had fallen. Another resounding punch came from Jones and he couldn't block it.Jason held him as he rolled, making Jones to roll on alongside. They rolled down the hill, the world flipping and flipping

J-kill and Paul ran into an unknown direction, paving through the dense forest. As they stormed through the forest, it morphed into a large open space, cluttered with rocks of different sizes. Paul had no idea about where they were headed, he just had to follow J-kill like a puppet.“Com'on, we're getting close.” J-kill beckoned and started running towards an unpaved road surfaced with gravel. The more they get closer, the more a noticeable grin masked Paul's face. For more than three years, he had never felt such a tender joy.“Is that it?” Paul asked when they stopped running.“Yes! That's our way out. We're out of this forest. Woah,” J-kill yelled.With Paul's eyebrows scrunched up, he asked, “you know about this escape route all these while?”“I think I do, I just don't remember the way. I had to think.” He answered and walked briskly towards the gravel road. They wandered through the road, though J-kill wasn't feeling hopeful, Paul was consumed with zestfulness, that he was fina

“This is FBI, you're completely surrounded, Surrender now!” Came a voice from a megaphone as they close on Jones and the rest of the prisoners, who were still alive. They didn't expect everything to turn out this way, the deaths and everything happening was never close to what Jones planned.Jones and the escaped prisoners were taking cover with the stolen car, while the FBI agents were closing on them from both side. If they should keep running at the open space that lead to the forest, there's a high chance they won't make it there without getting shot.And there is no other option better than surrendering, and Jones wasn't ready to go back to prison. If they are caught as it seems like, they might not get thrown into Atlad prison again. What fate awaits them?“Does that mean, I will be thrown into the same prison as my brother? Is he even in any prison? Why is it not known to public! Dammit,” Jones doesn't know what to believe anymore. He was having mixed feelings and feeling bad w

A Boeing 747 flew over and landed safely on the helipad. The cool mist splashed Melvin Otani's face as he walked out through the door of the jumbo jet.The roaring sound of the jet engine rushed through his ear as the door to the plane shoved open.Hundreds of men in suits fell into a line immediately the door of the jet was open, they had a badge attached to their suit.The badge on their suit was an indication of loyalty to Melvin Otani. Once the loyalty of a recruit is perceived to be without pretense and remorse, they are accepted to serve.While they were anticipating his presence, Joan and five burly men, stepped out. Melvin was behind them, walking in a lordly manner as usual.The whole building, attached to the helipad, was owned by Melvin Otani and no intruder has been able to invade the location. Even the government still doesn't have any idea about Melvin's movement. He comes into the country and leave like the ghost he was. The walking living ghost as known by everyone.“W

Melody briskly walked out of the brick building. It was an old building that had an undeniable serenity. The fusty nosegay of age and quietness embraced her as she walked through the environment.There were drawings imprinted on the walls of the building, but they all seemed to have faded away along the design layers.Despite its deteriorated state, the whole building and the environment had the peace the other world craved.“Hey Melody,” Ramon waved at her and walked towards her.“How's your man, uhm…Chris?” She asked without staring at him. She felt bad and didn't like how she was feeling despite being in a safe place. She tried comforting herself that all seemed to be fine, but she was merely betraying her true feelings.“Oh, Yeah, he's getting better.” He exhaled heavily, before throwing the question he had always wanted to ask since they got the news about Jones escaping. “Why did Jones hire you as his lawyer?”She hiked her head up and stared in surprised at him. She never expec

Jones and the other escaped prisoners were still running at a fast pace through the woods. They are tired, sweaty and breathing heavily. “I knew it. I knew it will get to this. Everything is just fucked up.” Kenny said, slowing down his pace.“I never wanted to join the escape. I—I… I really don't want any of this.” Kenny stammered, trying to catch his breath. He was clearly close to despair. With that, Jones and the other prisoners stopped running.“How long are we going to keep running?” Paul asked out of frustration.Everyone was tired and frustrated. They trusted Jones' plan, but it seemed like everything was going south. They got found before, and they believe the police will find them again if they don't get out of the woods now.Jones had to deploy a new escape plan the very moment he found out that his brother was not in Atlad prison. So his former plan had a means of getting them out of the woods with ease, but since they weren't using his initial plan, it was going to be d

Dylan stood and quietly stepped away from the bed, leaving Rachel in the bedroom area before walking into the small foyer just beyond the suite's main door.It was quieter there and more importantly, it gave him some privacy without having to leave the suite completely.Dylan leaned against the wall a few feet from the entrance and answered the call."Hello?""Are you busy?" Betty's voice came through the phone.Dylan glanced briefly toward the bedroom before looking back at the door."Not really. What's up?""I wanted to ask you something.""Go ahead."There was a brief pause before Betty interrupted it."About our race.""Our race?""Yeah."Betty sounded unusually casual and it bothered Dylan to an extent."I was thinking... are you available tomorrow?""Tomorrow?""Yeah. We made a deal, remember? Let's just get it over with."After everything that had happened today, that was what Betty wanted to talk about? “You're serious?”“Of course.” She chuckled.“You're not backing out now,

Suddenly, Rachel stirred and she sat up slowly, rubbing her temples with her eyes fluttering open.She looked around the room with confusion, then her gaze finally landed on Dylan."Where... where am I?" she whispered with an incredibly soft voice."You're in a hotel suite," Dylan said, keeping his distance. "You're drunk. Becky had to leave for an emergency, so I'm watching you.""Oh..." Rachel slid off the bed. Her legs seemed to wobble, and with a soft cry, she stumbled forward.Dylan instinctively caught her again. But this time, Rachel didn't just hold on. She slid her hands up his chest with a warm and deliberate touch.She even had to lean her body entirely against his, looking up at him with parted lips."I'm so dizzy," she whispered with her breath brushing against his lips. "And so lonely... please, don't leave. Just stay here....With me."She slowly began to pull him toward the bed. Dylan carried her back, intending to just lay her down, but the moment her back hit the matt

Dylan gently tried to pull his hand free, but Rachel only tightened her grip, clinging to him as though letting go would make him disappear.Becky immediately walked over."Rachel..." She carefully pried Rachel's fingers away one by one until Dylan's hand was finally free."There..." Becky forced an awkward smile. "I think she's just... scared of being alone."She glanced at Dylan apologetically. "I'll stay here with her while you head back. I'm really sorry our lunch ended like this.""It's fine. Take good care of her." Dylan smiled lightly.With that, Dylan turned and was about to leave when a knock came from outside the presidential suite."Come in...."The door opened and one of the receptionists entered respectfully. It was the same receptionist Dylan had noticed earlier. The one he had suspected was throwing uncomfortable glances at him.She walked directly toward Becky."Excuse me, Miss....I believe this belongs to you." She handed over Becky's phone."My phone?" She instinctiv

Becky forced another smile before gently trying to pull Rachel away."Rachel... come on."Rachel shook her head stubbornly, tightening her arms around Dylan's neck. "No....I'm comfortable here..."She mumbled so softly that it almost sounded like sleep talking.Now Dylan was fully convinced that she's drunk. Coupled with the fact that she's a friend of Becky. Everything was now convincing.'Maybe there was no threat... That's why my system didn't detect anything. I was just being paranoid thinking the Berg's family will strike immediately...After all, they are always keen on protecting their name.' Dylan could only sigh helplessly."She really is drunk." He voiced out."I know." Becky looked equally troubled. "I've never seen her this wasted before."Rachel suddenly looked up at Dylan again and her watery eyes met his. "You smell nice..."She smiled dreamily before resting her head on his shoulder again. "And you're... so warm..."Dylan awkwardly looked away while Becky coughed lightl

THUD!!!For a split second, Dylan's muscles were tensed and every instinct in his body screamed that something had just entered his space.The impact wasn't as powerful as expected, but it was too sudden.Dylan's eyes sharpened instinctively as countless possibilities raced through his mind. With his hand clenched into a fist ready to react at the slightest sign of danger.But the System remained silent and no warning or threat was detected.The figure stumbled backward instead and instantly misstep. A soft figure had crashed straight into his chest and before the girl could fall, Dylan instinctively caught her by the waist.Staring directly into her eyes, Dylan noticed she wasn't one of the girls stalking him before. Coupled with the scent of alcohol immediately reaching his nose, he was now convinced that she wasn't the girl.She looked up with half-open eyes and her cheeks were flushed.Her long, wavy hair spilled over her shoulders, slightly messy but somehow making her even more

Dylan casually picked up his glass and took a sip of water, his expression remaining as calm as ever.Outwardly, nothing had changed,but inside, his mind had already become alert as he slowly glanced around the restaurant again.The elegant woman was still seated in the same spot, quietly stirring her coffee without looking in his direction anymore.The lady who had just entered had also found a seat, though she wasn't eating. She simply crossed one leg over the other and occasionally looked around the restaurant with her black glasses like she was waiting for someone.Then there was the receptionist.Every now and then, she would steal a glance toward Dylan before quickly looking away.One person could have been a coincidence... Two perhaps, but three? That wasn't something Dylan believed in.Becky noticed him looking around."What is it?""Nothing." Dylan smiled faintly.She tilted her head suspiciously. "You've looked around three times already.""Have I?""You have.""Maybe I'm ju
