CH-4 LEORIO

After two days John woke up in the hospital and saw someone with a shock. It was 'him'!

Leorio Hans had come to the hospital.

John didn't know how to react to such an unforeseen event. He did expect the Agency to know about the situation and dispatch a team for overall assessment of the event, but sending Mr. Leorio to paris, was something out of possibility.

John: Good Morning Sir! I.. umm.. You.. here??

Leorio: So you woke up Johny. It's been a while. How long has it been?

John: Five.

Leorio: Five. that's right you've grown. You have made progress in the Agency. It makes me proud.

John: I'm a long long way away from that, still making errors after being one of the seniors. Like this one, when I ran into such an obvious trap. It's humiliating. I'm an embarrassment to the Agency. A failure nothing more. Yet they send their best agent here.

Leorio: quiet fantasy you've been running in your mind. You're not as big a failure as I felt I was in my early days. Well there's no problem in the best visiting the third in agent ranking. Right?

John: What do you mean third? I am 21st in agent ranking in france.

Leorio: Oh right! I haven't told you yet about your promotion. From today you're third after me and that douchebag,Hebby. Everyone from rank three to twenty died two days ago.

John: what?? What do you mean all died? That's impossible!

John couldn't be more struck by the situation. His body was trembling. He could not believe the word just conveyed to him.

Leorio: Well it is all true. It's as shocking for me as it is for you. I came here on such a short notice to ensure no further loss than which has already befallen upon the Agency.

John: wait a minute! What about Mia, she ranks seven right?

Leorio: Everyone from three to twenty is dead, no exceptions. I told Sean yesterday. He's completely broken. At first he went berserk, stabbed one attendant and a doctor. Both of them are admitted in this same hospital. He kind of blames you for what happened. He was nearly going to kill you yesterday, but I couldn't let that happen so I had to subdue him.

John: How did this happen? She wasn't even with us.

Leorio: Apparently Mia was killed in her room. There was a broken window, Things left after breaking all the furniture in the room, another corpse of  one of the workers at the hotel and bullet holes in and around the bodies. So that's all. It seems it's my time to leave. John, heal up and then you can submit a report of this incident.

John: Yes sir.

Leorio turned to move out of the room and then a nurse entered with a tray. There was a syringe and two bottles of medicine. The nurse started to fill the syringe and then rubbed John's arm with alcohol. Just as she was going to put the syringe's needle in John's arm, Leorio grabbed the nurse's hand and pushed her back, taking the syringe from her hand. The nurse plunged back at Leorio with a small knife, she pulled out of her skirt and attacked Leorio. Leorio took her by her hand, threw her to the ground, pulled out his gun and shot three bullets, on her leg, chest and head. Listening to the gunshot two more uninvited guests entered the room, armed with knives. Dodging the first one Leorio put the syringe, he took it from the nurse into the person in the back and then kicked him down, then pushed the table near him towards the second one, as he was coming to stab him. The man fell over the table, just then Leorio kicked him in the face. The man fell on the ground next John. Leorio moved up to him and placed his feet on his cheek.

Leorio: Wrong Choice!

Leorio shot the man in the head. After that both John and Leorio looked toward the one with a syringe hanging from his throat. He seemed in immense pain, he took out the syringe and threw it but it seemed to have no effect on pain. Suddenly the area where the syringe was, started to glow, as if burning and suddenly there was a burst and the man's headless body only remained.

Leorio: Oh! A eruptor. It's been a while seeing those. I will surely be taking my leave this time. Don't worry John, I will be leaving some people on guard till you both heal up.

Saying that Leorio left the room. John on the other hand was still trembling from the fact that he was so close to die such a horrible death. John lay in bed with three corpses in the room thinking how he would face Sean after what had happened.
