Dylan and KATS explained in his head to the others about KATS and how to use their new powers while monitoring the driver and the road ahead toward the villa. After that was finished, Dylan imdiately spoke to KATS.
"Hey KATS... you’re called KATS now, right?" Dylan asked in his head.
[That is correct, sir.]
"Okay... also, I have sothing to ask. Ellie, Maya, Lena, and Amy are pregnant. You gave them skills and involved them in combat, what’s up with that? If anything happens to the babies, I won’t forgive you," Dylan said in his head, feeling anxious.
[There is no need to worry, master. I am protecting their pregnancies.]
"Next ti, please explain it to first. Don’t just go ahead and upgrade," Dylan replied.
[Understood. I will explain next ti.]
"Wait, can it still be upgraded again?" Dylan asked.
[.....there is no need to discuss that, sir... we will arrive in about 30 minutes.]
"Grrr... you’re lying to , aren’t you... you secretive one," Dylan muttered.
[Thank you for the complint.]
"I was not complinting you," Dylan replied.
anwhile, in the basent cage at the villa, Ellie, Maya, Lena, Amy, Aaron, and Clara sat in a circle on the floor. Ellie held Fiona, and Clara held Iris. They looked thoughtful, trying to process what had just happened to them. They opened the holographic screens in front of their faces, still looking half-believing. "Tap," Maya stood up and walked toward the bars.
"Hey... what are you going to do?" Lena asked.
"Trying sothing," Maya replied.
She imdiately grabbed the cage door with both hands and "ugh," "clang," she tore the cage door off, opening the cell. Ellie imdiately picked up Fiona and stood up, as did Clara holding Iris. Lena, Amy, and Aaron did the sa; they all stood, looking at Maya, who was still holding the cage door.
"We’re free, hehe," Maya said.
"Wow... big sister Maya really is strong... just like the status screen said," Aaron said.
"Yeah... amazing," Clara replied.
"Does that an all of us can be like Dylan, too... vanish and stuff?" Lena asked.
"We can... but we can’t leave Fiona and Iris. We need to make a plan. [turns to look at Maya] Please close it again for a mont, don’t make them suspicious," Ellie said.
"I have an idea," Amy replied.
Everyone imdiately turned to look at Amy, and then Amy started to pitch her idea to all of them. A short while later, upstairs, two guards in black soldier uniforms and carrying weapons were sitting at a dining table, relaxed and watching the basent door.
"Ugh, I hate this... why won’t the boss let us touch them? They’re so hot," said the first guard.
"I don’t know, man. It’s a waste to just kill them. I wanted to enjoy them first, but it’s the boss’s orders, so we have to follow them," the second guard replied.
"Click," suddenly the basent door was opened by soone. Both guards imdiately aid their weapons at the door. But they were instantly stunned when they saw Ellie standing in the doorway wearing only her underwear.
"Hello... I need to use the restroom... my clothes downstairs got wet, so I’m naked," Ellie said, swaying her body and using her charm skill.
"O-of course, let take you," said the first guard, already lusting after Ellie.
"I want both of you to take ," Ellie replied, teasingly.
"G-great, co with us," the second guard added.
Ellie imdiately walked between the two and linked her arms through theirs. The two guards kept looking Ellie up and down, and their breathing beca labored, but suddenly "crep... crep," Ellie stabbed the knives she had taken from their own waists into the back of their necks and covered both of their mouths so they couldn’t make a sound. Slowly, she supported their bodies and lowered the two guards to the floor.
"Ugh... disgusting n," Ellie said, staring sharply at the two guards.
A short while later, Maya and Lena ca up and went outside. They took the guards’ weapons and vanished, heading out. Ellie returned to the basent below. Maya and Lena imdiately went upstairs. Lena went up to the third floor, then to the fourth floor—the roof—and Maya swept the second floor. She was looking for Karl, who was in the study. When she found him, Maya slightly opened the door. She peeked inside and saw Karl standing in front of the window, looking out.
Maya aid her weapon at Karl, but suddenly "swooosh," Karl imdiately stood right in front of Maya. "Clatter," Maya’s weapon dropped because she was instantly grabbed by the throat and lifted by Karl.
"Hoo... CATS has awakened, I see," Karl said with a terrifying, dual voice.
Maya appeared and struggled. "Huuuff," Maya tried to calm herself, and her two hands grabbed Karl’s arm that was choking her.
"Aaaah," Karl let go of Maya, who imdiately jumped back and took her stance.
"Huh... how did you know I was going to shoot you?" Maya asked.
"I am CROWS. I have taken control of this man’s body. You won’t win against alone," Karl replied, his voice rging with CROWS’s.
"Hmm, is that so," Maya said, smiling.
"But too bad, she’s not alone."
Suddenly, Aaron appeared behind Karl and thrust a long sword, which he’d pulled from the arsenal, into Karl’s back until it pierced through to the front.
"Aaaah... you bastard!"
Karl spun around and hit Aaron with the back of his hand. Aaron parried it, but he was thrown back, and "thud," he crashed into the desk. "Grip," Maya imdiately grabbed Karl’s arm and "hiyaaaah," she spun, pulling Karl’s arm, then slamd Karl backward. "BLAM," Karl’s bloodied body crashed onto the floor. "Ahaak," Karl coughed up fresh blood, and his eyes bulged as his body hit the floor, which cracked because Maya used her full strength.
Before Karl, who was possessed by CROWS, could move again, Maya was already sitting on top of him, raining punches down on him while yelling. Aaron, seeing this, slowly stood up and walked over to Maya.
"Big sister Maya... that’s enough... he’s already dead," Aaron said, holding Maya’s arm.
"Huf... huf... huf," Maya looked at Karl’s face, which was already bloody and crushed into the floor from her punching him with all her might.
Maya’s tears imdiately stread down her face. Finally, she was truly free from her adoptive father’s grip. She stood up, then hugged Aaron tightly. Aaron led Maya to the window. They watched several soldiers scattered around the villa and patrolling, dropping one by one with their heads cracked open, as if shot by a sniper.
"Big sister Lena has killed all the guards. We’re free and just waiting for big brother Dylan," Aaron said.
"Yeah... you’re right. Thanks, Aaron. Good thing you followed , not Lena," Maya replied.
"You’re welco, big sister Maya. Co on, let’s go back downstairs. Big sister Ellie, big sister Amy, and Clara are waiting with Fiona and Iris," Aaron replied.
They left the study and ran downstairs. When they reached the bottom, they t Ellie and Amy, who were carrying SMGs and were covered in blood.
"All the troops inside the house are wiped out," Amy said.
"Yep, turns out it was easy to finish them off," Ellie added.
"Good then," Maya said, her fists still covered in blood.
"Your adoptive father?" Amy asked.
"He’s dead," Maya answered, clenching her fist.
"Good," Amy replied.
"Where are Clara, Fiona, and Iris, big sister Ellie?" Aaron asked.
"They’re still in the basent. We don’t want Fiona and Iris to see all of this," Ellie answered.
"Oh, okay. That ans I need to change too, huh? I got splattered with blood," Aaron said, looking at his shirt.
"Okay... we all need to change clothes before Dylan gets here and tells Clara, Fiona, and Iris to co up... Is Lena still upstairs?" Amy asked.
"Yeah, she’s still sweeping the outside of the villa," Aaron answered.
"Okay, let’s go. We’ve won," Ellie replied.
Finally, they all went up to the second floor and checked room after room to find a change of clothes and take a shower. anwhile, in the second-floor study:
[CROWS: This isn’t over. I will definitely get revenge on you, KATS.]
