Kizy fearfully turned to look back, only to find her dress stuck in a thorn bush.
She jerked her dress away, resulting in her dress being ripped away, but she couldn't care more about it.
She started running again, her speed still the sa.
'Wish you will never let see you again bastards. I promise I'll kill you.' Kizy thought, completely exhausted after twenty minutes.
She was still running ahead, when she heard a sound behind her.
"CRACK!!" She turned back to look at the sound while running ahead.
And the next mont, she had collided into a wall made of firm muscles, her head bumping straight into a chest.
Before she could understand what was happening, a palm covered her mouth and dragged her behind a huge tree.
Finally Kizy managed to turn her head and look at the person above, only to find a divinely handso face, inches away from her face. Unlike her, his face was not covered by the mask.
"Sshhh!" The man gestured with his long and slender index finger, placing it on his mouth while his other hand was covering Kizy's mouth.
Kizy had this gut feeling that she knew this man but she just couldn't recall eting him anywhere before this.
Kizy was still thinking when she heard sounds of footsteps approaching their direction. She could estimate that there were at least 8-10 people coming their way.
The man who had covered her mouth, kneeled down, making Kizy kneel down as well, while encircling her waist with his other free hand.
He was so close to her face that Kizy could feel his warm breath. She was still trying to rember his face when she saw people coming their way.
The people ran towards them, crossing the tree she and that man was hiding.
anwhile the man was shifting slowly towards the other side with Kizy, so that they wouldn't be caught if those enemies turned behind.
"Where did she go?" She heard a musculine man speak.
"The trail leads that way. I am sure she will be running and we will catch up with her soon." A female voice was heard.
"That bitch will definitely pay with her life." Kizy heard the voices fading away, going in the opposite direction, those people not in her sight anymore.
She turned to look at the man who now was very close to her face.
"Mhmmm." Kizy tried to speak in her muffled voice, signalling that he could remove his hand to let her talk.
But the man seed to be lost, lost in his world which he could see in those cold but sparkling eyes in front of him.
"Mhhmmm!" Kizy tried to speak again, still to no avail.
Finally left with no patience, Kizy directly pinched his hand, succeeding in waking him up from his daze.
The man imdiately removed his hand and moved a little away from her, though his other arm was still encircling her waist.
"Are you all right?" The man asked.
"Hmmm." Kizy nodded, while looking back towards the way where the group of people had gone.
"Hazel." The man said, his eyes twinkling while calling her na.
"You… you are that yesterday's man?" Kizy asked, shock apparent from her wide eyed expression.
"Yeah." The man said with a foolish grin, looking like a man completely imrsed in love.
"Can you guide back towards the female building? I lost my teammates." Kizy said.
"Yes. But on one condition." The man said.
Kizy thought for a minute, thinking whether she should trust this stranger. But except for his weird behaviour, the man never seed to have any ulterior motives for her. Thus she spoke.
"What condition?" Kizy asked.
"Tell the people who were following you?" The man asked.
But Kizy rembered that Gala never allowed people to reveal identities. Plus though the man didn't look dangerous at the mont, it wasn't sure whether he was harmful or not.
"I don't know." Kizy said, thinking this was the best solution at the mont.
"No, you know them. You were not astonished to see that group. It felt as if you knew them or at least their origin." The man said.
"No. I don't know them." Kizy insisted, firm on her statent.
"Since you are not telling, I won't guide you out of this forest." The man said, a little playfulness visible in his voice.
"Sure. I can just go back the way I ca from. Anyways thank you for saving ." Kizy said and got up, removing his hand from her waist.
"Yeah. I am sure that you are definitely not the group leader nor soone who calls the shots in your group." The man replied, standing up as well.
"Why do you think so?" Kizy asked, curious about how the man found out.
Jason always made the plans in the group. Sotis Victor or Rose helped him in making changes or creating backup plans. But he never asked her or Harry for the sa.
"Only a newbie will go back the sa way he or she ca from. Because of course the group chasing them will have so people stationed there, to make sure that they won't escape." The man said casually.
"Then I can just go the opposite way." Kizy said, walking towards the direction where the group had gone.
"Yes of course. So that they can catch you whenever they decide to return via the sa path." The man said, walking in a different direction.
"You are so an. If you know what to do, then why don't you simply help once again?" Kizy said, frustratedly.
It wasn't that she was not clever. In fact she was one of the intelligent mbers from their group who could learn anything after watching it carefully just once.
But yes, when it ca to planning, it wasn't her forte. She would always end up creating troubles instead of solving her problem. Thus Jason never asked her for planning but just execution.
"Then why don't you tell the identity of those people?" The man asked.
"I said I don't know!" Kizy said frustratedly.
"And you are still lying." The man replied, walking ahead while Kizy followed behind subconsciously.
"Fine. Then answer my question first." Kizy said, making the man stop in tracks.
