'Let them do what they want, huh.' Thought the square table mber who asked about the Level One° mbers. 'You've changed.'
"With Burnok leaving, I guess we could form four pairs? Or should we do two groups with four mbers each?" Said Jake.
"If it's my pair, I don't want to team up with you." Said the arrogant woman.
"Sigh! Stop assuming Jade, even I myself don't want to team up with a noisy woman like you." Said Jake in a lazy tone.
"Huh? Who's the noisy woman? Say that again?" Jade raised a fist, threatening to punch Jake, opposite her.
"Alright, stop that you two. Because you two are always fighting then you should team up both, try to get along just once, alright?" The leader said.
"What?" Jake and Jade stood up and spoke in unison.
"Hehehe, that's my final decision. And as Katrina is the weakest of us here, I'll team up with her." The leader continued.
Jake and Jade could only settle back on their seat after hearing the leader's command. At the mont, both of them were thinking the sa thing, but in a different tone. Jake with his lazy tone and Jade with her arrogant tone, 'Shit! I've screwed up.'
anwhile, at the other end of the square table, Katrina was acting rather shy. Her face was red from hotness after hearing that the leader wanted to team up with her.
Suddenly, one of the silent mbers spoke, "Where do we search for the Beheader? Do you have any specific location that we can try?"
"Nope! But the Town Hall is definitely off-limits, try to not get close in that area." Jake said.
After hearing that line, Jade suddenly jabs Jake on the chest without warning. It didn't contain any strength, more like a warning jab. Using her mouth, she then pointed towards the leader beside them.
An expression of anger and grief could be seen on the leader's face. The leader's fist was clenched tightly and everyone around could hear the grinding of the molar inside the leader's mouth.
"Water, get water!" Jake hurriedly stood up and closed in towards the leader. In fact, not only him but all of the mbers of the square table also stood up in unison.
Seeing the state the leader was in, Katrina's face had also lost its color. However, hearing Jake's shout, she imdiately went towards the corner and fetched a glass full of water.
"Let the leader drink it," Jade said as she stroked the back of their leader to make the leader calm down.
"It's your fault, talking about that place." Jade punched Jake's ribs again, this ti it was stronger.
Jake endured the punch and just stood there motionless. He then lowered his head before saying, "Sorry!"
The word Town Hall is taboo for their leader. It was the place where it all started, at least for the leader. It was the place where the leader's parents died an unfortunate death. Every ntion of the town hall, the leader would always do the sa thing, just like what was happening right now.
Rigid breathing, clenched fist, and an angry expression, that is the basic signs. In short, in every ntion of the word town hall, the leader would always have a seizure. It's as if the leader was in trauma and every ti the town hall was ntioned, the traumatic mory would surface again, hence the seizure.
"Haaaaa… haaaa…."
After a few minutes, the leader finally started to calm down.
"I'm alright. I'm alright." The leader said. However, the leader's fist was still clenched in anger. The anger this ti was no longer due to the word town hall triggering the past events, but it was the anger for still getting affected by those feelings of grief.
"That's all for now. Hehehe. Let's start our search tomorrow." The leader said while leaning back to the chair leisurely as if nothing had happened.
All the remaining square table mbers nodded their heads in understanding. One by one, they left the upside-down dump truck, leaving the leader alone.
Jade pinched Jake's ears and dragged him outside as he seed reluctant to leave. Katrina was also hesitant to leave at first, she wanted to give the leader comfort but, after a while of hesitating, she finally decided to go out and leave the leader behind. She knew that the leader's mood was not right this ti, no matter how good the leader treated her ever since he saved her, that treatnt might change in an instant if she makes a wrong move.
As Katrina closed the lid, a slam was heard inside the upside-down dump truck. The leader clenched the fist tightly and wiped the tears forming on the left eye's corner. The leader then gets up from the seat and steps towards the lid. The leader then went back to the pink shipping container to rest.
…
Back at the Blue Waves Faction base, their Level Two° mbers were also undergoing a eting.
Inside a huge shipping container, eight people were encircling around a huge table.
"Where is that emo guy?" Said one of the mbers.
"Who knows he's always late, what did you expect?" Said another man with his hands rested on the back of his head.
"So I heard, there's a new trend? It was the talk around the base. What is it called again? The Beheader? What a la moniker." Said a man with spiky hair and a gangster appearance. He has a lot of tattoos covering his face and body as well as piercings on his nose, mouth, brows, ears, tongue and even the nose bridge has one.
"You're just jealous that soone already got a moniker while you who have been here for almost a month still don't have one, right?" Said a carefree young woman, while blowing the wax she just picked inside her ears.
"The sun is starting to set, let's start our eting," Dotina said after seeing that the last mber was still nowhere to be seen.
However, as she was about to speak about the issue, a sudden slam was heard outside the shipping container.
"Please open the door, whoever is closer," Dotina said.
The mber closest to the door was about to get up and open the door when,
Woosh!
As fast as lightning, a figure arrived in front of the door. The figure was the bulky Bart. And in one swift motion, he instantly opened the door without delay.
