A rescue to be made.

You don't know how much something means to you until you are on the edge of losing it.

Dread, sorrow, despair, sadness, terrified. That is how I feel, as I run from the cab and into the pouring rain. The cab driver calling frantically after me.

"Hey, where are you going? There is no one on these streets, and it isn't safe for a girl like you to be out here at these hours at night. Hey!" But I didn't pay him any mind. 'Crazy girl, probably out her to get wasted.' He thought as he drives away.

I run into the alley, my clothes extra drench by the rain. I look around and stopped Robyn lying in a corner out of the street's view, her form is still and her katana beside her. Shining bright in the dimly lit alley.

"Robyn!" I shout her name, runing over to her. I kneel down beside her and turn her over on her back. "Robyn." I call her name again, but she didn't answer. I scan her body, and my heart clench. Her face is swollen and blood leak from her nose, I look down on her hand that she has clutch to her chest. And saw that it's also bruise and have a sickening black and blue colour to it. My tears mix in with the rain as i cry. It was my duty to protect them and now I have let them down. I shouldn't have agreed for them to go out protrolling, especially after dad prohibited us not to. Oh God, dad. What am I going to tell him? He is going to be so angry, he is going to hate me if anything ever happen to Dai. Poor Dai, I wonder where he is. A sob rocked through my body, and I weakly put Robyn's body down. My hands in the murky water on the ground as I use them to balance myself up and onto my feet. I move away from Robyn and walk aimless over to the other side of the alley, as I bawl my eyes out. My chest tightening, and it feels like I can't breathe. I cry out in fustration, hurt, guilt and anger, as I punch the hard cold wet brick wall. The pain numb, but it was there. But it is overshadowed by those three emotions, and let me tell you- it is worst then pain. I am frustrated by the fact that I don't have a clue of where Dai could be, and the fact that Robyn isn't responding to me. I am hurt because they are hurt and I am quite alright, when it is my fault that the League knew that dad's offsprings had inherited his abilities. If I hadn't wanted to save this city, they wouldn't have found out. Guilt, I am feeling guilty right now because while they were out getting hurt, I was snuggled up eating popcorn and watching t.v.. When I should have stop them before I left. I don't regret babysitting, but I should have tried harder to stop them. I let them talk me down. And anger, I can't wait to find those sumbags that did that to Robyn and also took Dai. I can't wait to unleash all this rage that I have right now onto them, I can't wait to see them hurt. I yelled out in anger, nursing my ingured hand to my chest. My wet hair clinging to my face and back, the rain pouring down harder now.

"M-Miayana?" I hear Rob' s weak voice, barely audible over the heavy pouring of the rain.

"Yeah, yes I am right here." I hurry over to her, and carefully pull her upper body to rest against me.

She wince in pain, and I immediately regretted my action.

"Dai...." She mutter, her teeth chattering from the cold night rain air. I need to get her somewhere warm and where she can get some medical help. But where, I can't take her to a hospital-no they will find out that she is Onna. And Dai isn't here to help, he was the one that treated me when I got badly injured in the criminal riot.

"We are going to find him, but right now I need to get you out of the rain and get you some medical attention." I told her, brushing the rain soak hair out of her face.

"You....you s-s-shouldn't blame y-yourself for what h-happen, even if we didn't go on patrol they would of find us anyway." I felt her cold wet hand in my own wet clammy hand. I smile down at her, and she tried to smile but it turn in a painful grimace. "Could you please g-get m-me that h-h-help now, i-i am cold and i-i f-f-feel like....i a-am going to p-passss o-out now." She said shivering, and her eyes slowly fluttering close.

"No Robyn, please stay with me." I gently shake her shoulder, tears in my eyes ready to fall.

"No, no. Don't cry, I am not going anywhere because I will always be at your side. No matter what." She slightly touch my right cheek, wiping away tears that I didn't know that is falling. I smile down at her, and her eyes slowly close.

The tears came again, and I swallow deeply. I suck in a deep breath and then exhale slowly, pull my phone out of my pants pocket which is really wet. I will probably need a new phone tomorrow, and call my dad.

"Hello?" He pick up after two rings. What should I tell him, I am suddenly feeling nervous.

"H-hi dad..it's me." I take another deep breath.

"How are you doing Mia? you don't sound ok." He started sounding worried.

I should just get to the point.

"To tell you the truth dad, I am not ok." I started crying again.

"Mia calm down and tell me what's wrong." I hear shuffling and a chair being push back.

"Dai and Robyn went out on patrol and now Dai is missing and Robyn is seriously hurt, and I don't know what to do." I sob into the phone.

"What did you just say, Dai is missing?!" He yell over the phone, panic rising in his voice.

"Yea, they took him. And Robyn is really hurt, and she is not responding t-"

"Where are you right now!" He ask, and I here keys jingling and a door open and then closing.

"Ah, we are at Fourth Street....um in an alley way across from the tax office." I tell him.

"Ok, keep out of sight and I will be there soon." he said before hanging up.

I safely tuck my phone inside my bra to try and keep it out of much of the rain as I can, then I look down at Robyn. She looks a bit pale, and her face has a nasty black and blue colour to it now.

"Hold on Rob, help will be here soon.

Fifteen minutes has passed before my dad pull up in a black BMW. He quickly ran from the car and came over to me, a Asian looking guy following behind him.

"Dad." I said when he got close to me, I Shriver from the cold, my body dripping wet and muddy.

"We need to get her out of this rain right now before she develop pneumonia, Hase help me get her up." He said to the guy.

They left Robyn out of my arms and Hase brought her to the car.

"Miayana, are you hurt?" He look down at my hand that I used to punch the wall earlier.

I look down on it, and the knuckles are black and blue, swollen and bleeding.

"I am fine, we just need to help Robyn right now." I said, I am so numb by the cold right now. I can't even moved.

"Come on, let me help you up." He put his hands under my feet and lift me up, carrying me bridal style to the car.

We drive in silence for awhile, with only the heavy rain drops falling onto the car can be heard. Until dad decided to break it.

"So what the hell happened?" He turn from the passenger seat to look at me. "Didn't I tell you guys not to go out patrolling tonight or not to go if it is not the three of you going out."

He sounds pretty angry.

"I told them not to go, but they convince me that they would be alright because it is the two of them." I look down at Robyn who's head is resting on my lap.

"So, where were you in all of this?"

"After you left, mom called and ask if I could babysit my sister's kids. I told her yes and that is where I was when Robyn called me." I hang my head low, feeling like I am being interrogated.

He turn back around to face the road and I glance up in the rearview mirror just in time to see the tears slip from his eyes.

"Dad, we are going to find Dai, and we are going to get him back before they start to do anything to him." I said, and I see him nod

"Can you get her in those regular clothes that is in that bag." The guy, Hase, pointed to a black duffel bag on the seat under Robyn's feet.

I nodded to him and lift her feet and took up the bag.

I change her out of her wet suit and put on the grey t-shirt, black sweatpants, and a black hoodie on her that i took from the bag. I even put on some grey socks I found in the bag on her cold feet.

Two minutes later, we pull up at the entrance in front of the Highland City hospital.

"What are we doing here?" I ask confusingly. "We can't take Robyn here, they will question us about her injury."

"She needs medical attention and we aren't equipped to do it ourselves." Dad turn and said to me. "But no need to worry, Hase is a well known doctor here, and he will take care of Robyn."

I look at Hase skeptically, taking in his features. His dark eyes shines from the light illuminating the entrance of the hospital, his black hair is cut short and the two sides slightly shaved. He is the same height as dad, but dad is more built in body mass.

"Are you sure that we can trust him?" I whisper to dad.

"I heard that, and of course you can totally trust me." Hase smile at me. "I have known about your father's condition for years."

I turn to dad and he nodded.

"He and I are friends, his wife and Aprinya are close to. But Dai and his son doesn't get along too well. Some who is better than who thing they have got going on."

"Oh, ok. So are you Thai too?" I ask, my teeth chattering even though the heater is on in the car.

"No, I am Korean actually. My wife is from a Thai family, never been to the country and she never learn the language either." Hase laugh.

"So she is straight up American, what about you?" I ask, blowing in my palms to keep them warm. I don't know if it is the cold, but I can't feel the pain from my hurt hand.

"I am America, I have been to Korea once. But my parents taught me the language when I was little." He answer my question.

I open my mouth to say something else but he interrupted me. "Um enough about me right now, I believe that your friend needs more attention right? And we need to warm you up so you don't catch hypothermia."

I nodded with a blush and Hase and dad got out of the car, and came around to the back where I have Robyn.

"I will take her." Hase said, taking her out of the car and carrying her bridal style into the busy Emergency room.

"I have got a serious case right here, and in need of a x-ray scan STAT!" Hase said, as three nurse and two resident doctors run up to him.

"What are we dealing with Dr. Kim?" One of the doctor, a female, ask Hase.

"

"She has been involve in a bike

accident, I tell you wet road and she still decided to go motorcycle riding." Hase answer her, as he place Robyn on a Gurney and push her away. "Dr Mason." He stop and call to the other doctor. The male doctor look up from the clipboard he has in his hands and look to Hase.

"Yes Dr.Kim?" He answer politely.

"Can you please take a look at her hand and also give her a warm blanket and test her temperature to see if she is ok." Hase then continue down the hall to the elevator after the Gurney Robyn is on.

"Hello, I am Dr Mason. Can you follow me this way, you too sir." He said to me and dad. We follow him over to a vacant bed and he pull the curtain on both sides to give us some privacy. May I see your injured hand please." I held out my hand, and he hold it with his glove hands and look at it. "Can you please straighten your fingers out please." I did as I am told, and wince. Ah yes, there is the pain now. "There is no real threat, your hand is just burise and swollen. I will bandage it up and give you some medication for the pain." I nodded to him and he went to get the supplies that he needs.

Two hours after my hand is all bandage up and my temperature check, I am sitting in the waiting room with dad. A cup of hot chocolate in my hand and a warm blanket wrap around me. Without any news about how Robyn is doing. I look up at dad who is pacing in front of me, a stoic look on his face.

"Dad, I know that you are worried about Dai. But can you please stop pacing, it is making me anxious." I mutter to him, enjoying the warmth coming from the side of the cup.

"My pacing is making you anxious, what about how I am feeling huh. What about how Dai might be going through a series of pain and suffering, what about Robyn? We haven't heard anything about her progress as yet, and you are going to sit there and tell me that my pacing is making you anxious." He humorlessly laugh, then went back to his pacing.

I hang my head low to avoid his pacing which is getting me dizzy. Some seconds has pass, and now he is pacing and sighing. Getting some strange and sympathy looks from other people in the waiting room.

"Dad," I got up and touch his arm lightly, startling him. "I know that you are worried about Dai, I am too. But I know that we are going to find him and bring him home safely."

He grimace at me, then he cast his head down to look at the hospital floor. "We have got to find him, I don't know what I would have told Apinya if anything ever happens to Dai. She would never forgive me." He rake his hands through his hair.

"You might think that she won't, but I have met your wife. And she is the most selfless, kind hearted woman I have ever met. Yea she might be angry with you for a time, but she will forgive you. Because she loves you." I said to him, even offer a smile. But he just frown.

"You don't get it Mia, Apinya have this connection with Dai that no other mother have with her son."

"Seriously Dad, all mother's have a special bond with their children." I chuckle.

"No, Dai is her one and only child because-"

"So you feel guilty that if anything happens to Dai, which it won't, you will have me and Apinya won't-"

"No, that is not what I am saying." He said, grinding his teeth in annoyance.

"Then what are you saying, you need to explain because I am-"

"SHE CAN'T HAVE ANYMORE CHILDREN!" He yelled, startling me and everyone else.

All eyes are on him, and he huff a sigh and went over to the corner of the waiting room and sat down in one of the vacant chairs. I follow him and sat down as well.

"I am sorry, I didn't know th-"

"How could you have, when she haven't told anyone either." He take a hold of my hand and squeeze it lovingly. "That is why I can't even tell her that he is missing, promise me that you won't say anything to her."

He want me to lie to his wife, I am not a good lier. Sometimes i wonder to myself how I have kept my secret for so long now, and haven't spill the beans yet.

"Miayana, you have got to promise me that you won't say anything to Apinya." He turn me around to face him.

I have to promise him, so that we can also keep Apinya safe as well. I have to remember that in a life of a hero, you have to lie sometimes to protect those around you that you love.

"I promise that I won't say anything." I hold out my pinky and link his pinky to mine. "Pinky swear, and don't worry Dai. We will find Dai." He pull me into a side hug just as Hase came up to us.

We got up and met him half way, anxiety take hold of my body.

"So, is Robyn going to be ok?" I ask him, my whole body shaking.

"Yes, she will be fine." Hase Said, and I release a breath that I never knew that I was holding. "She just has a sprain wrist and four of her fingers are fractured, and her right jaw is isn't broken. Thank God, but it is swollen but apart from that. She is a-ok."

"That is good to hear." Dad Said, some of the worry gone from his face. But the worry for Dai is still there, why wouldn't it be.

"Can we go and see her?" I ask.

"You can, but she is sedated so she isn't awake." Hase reply, leading us through a double door and into an elevator where he press the level four button.

"So, did you get any news about Dai?" He ask my dad, and I don't know why but I tense up and watch my father from the corner of my eyes.

"No, I was hoping that Robyn would be awake and we could ask her some questions." Dad said in a robotic like voice, he just stand there staring in front of him and not even blinking.

The elevator dings and the door open and we step out, right down the hall is room 204, that is where Robyn is. I have something to do, just call me if you need me." Hase pointed down the hall and I nodded.

Opening that room door, and seeing my best friend laying on that hospital bed with her hand in a cast and her face all swollen, discolored and puffy. My heart breaks in two, hands clench at my side as angry tears run down my cheek, those bastards are going to pay when i get my hands on them.

I went and sat down on the bed beside her feet, and I tears fell rapidly from my eyes. "I am so super sorry Rob, this is all my fault." The steady beeping of the heart monitor and my sobbing is the only noise you can hear in the quiet room. "If I had just answer my phone when you called, you wouldn't be lying in a hospital bed right now." I sniff, wiping away my tears. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I look up to see dad staring down at me.

"This isn't your fault." He said to me.

"Yes it is, if I hadnt-"

"No, it is my fault. If anyone should be blame is me, if I had just been honest from the start none of this wouldn't be happening." Dad sat in a chair that is in front of me. "Now stop the crying, tears won't help us find Dai."

"B-but his s-suit will."We hear a quiet mumble. I turn my head and look up at Robyn who's eyes are staring into mine.

"Robyn, thank God that you are ok." I jump up off of the bed, and pull her in a hug. Totally forgetting that she is hurt.

"Ow, easy on the weak patient please." She said, a weak laugh followed.

"Oh gosh, I am so sorry." I said easing off of her.

"It is totally fine." She tried to sit up.

"Hey no no, you have got to take it easy." I said to her, but she wouldn't listen.

"I am." She wince as she ease herself up on the pillows. "See, I am ok. It is Dai that we need to worry about."

"That is ok Robyn, you should rest." Dad said to her.

"No, Dai helped me to escape. Now it is my turn to return the favor." Robyn said with a frown, her eyes has a far away look in them.

"You said something about his suit." Dad said confusingly.

"Oh yes, you can track him through his suit. Dai had implanted micro chip cameras in our suits to track our where about when out on a mission."

"Really? I thought we just communicate through our earpiece." I stunningly said.

"Nope." She said popping the p."We have trackers, and all we have to do is go back to our base and track him on the computer." Robyn explains.

I open mouth to say something but I am cut off by my phone ringing. I took it out of my bra and see my mom's name flashing across the screen. Oh shoot, I forgot that i left the kids with Marco. She is probably angry with me and want an explanation.

"Hello." I answer the phone shyly.

"Why did I came home to the kids all by themselves?" She ask, and just as I guess. She is angry.

"I had an emergency that I needed to take care of, didn't Marco tell you what I have said?" I ask her.

"I don't want an explanation from Marco, I want it from you."

"Robyn got in an motorcycle accident and I had to come see her at the hospital." I lied through my teeth.

There is a gasp and then my mother's voice fill the line again, but this time she sounds worried. "Is she alright? Is it serious?"

"She is fine, she just has a sprained wrist, her fingers are fractured and she has some bruise where she fell on her face" I look to Robyn and confusion is clearly written all over her face.

"Honey give my best to her- oh Marco was saying something about Dai, is he alright?" I can't tell mom that Dai is missing, she would freak out and then call Apinya and tell her. And I promise dad that I wouldn't let Apinya know, and knowing mom. She would let her mommy sense take over and she would definitely called Apinya and tell her. They have become great friends after they met, and people would find it weird that the ex-girlfriend and wife of a man are friends. But the two women have one thing in common, and that is that they both have a child for the man. So as always, I am going to lie to my mom.

"Dai is fine, he was just there when Robyn got into the accident. He is a little shaken up, but he is ok."

"That is good to hear, ok honey I will see you soo-"

"Oh mom, one more thing before you go."

"What is it honey?"

"Can you promise me that you won't tell Apinya about this, dad is actually here at the hospital with me and Robyn. So please don't tell her, he doesn't want her to worry too much." My eyes met my dad's and he nodded at me.

"Ok sure honey, I will talk to you tomorrow and also check up on Robyn. Love you sweetheart."

"Love you to mom." And then she hang up the phone.

I tuck my phone into my almost dry pants pocket and turn to look at Robyn, and sure enough she has a questionable expression on her face.

"What?" I mock innocence.

"Don't what me, why did you tell her that I was in a motorcycle accident?"

"Because we can't go around telling people that you are Onna, we have to come up with a cover story for your injuries." Hase beat me to it. "It is nice to see that you are awake and lively." He smile at her.

Robyn started to panic which cause the heart monitor to start beeping faster and loudly. "W-who is he, and how d-d-does he kn-ow t-that I am Onna?" She grab on to my hand as she breathe shortly.

"Calm down Robyn, his name is Dr. Hase Kim. And he is a very good friend of mine." Dad said to her.

"Yes I am, now please calm down and breathe slowly." Hase instructed; and Robyn follow. In a few seconds she had her breathing under control. "There you go, and you have no need to worry. You secret is safe with me, scouts honor."

Robyn take another breath and turn to me. "So, are you the one going to track Dai. Because if you are, shouldn't you be getting at it right now. Those people were dangerous, the person that capture Dai. Is the one that gave the orders, and they had these two whips that burns your skin when come in contact. That is what they used on Dai, so if we are going to rescue him, we shouldn't waste anymore time. She push away the covers that she is under and try to get out of bed.

"Oh no no missy, we will handle this and you WILL stay here and rest." Dad said to her sternly. "And I want no if and buts, understood?" Robyn nodded and lay back down, pulling the covers back over herself.

"But I still want to help, Dai saved my life out there. So anything I can do just name it."

"You can help by giving us information about where you and Dai was attacked, and I want you over the communicator and working the tablet giving us information. That is your job for now." Dad instructed and Robyn nodded again. "I also place two security guards outside your room door just in case."

I turn to look at my best friend and she gave me a reassuring smile. "Do you want me to call your parents?" I ask her and she shake her head.

"I can't bother with the commotion that they will bring, just go and find Dai." I give her a thumbs up, and a crocky grin.

"So-hey Rob, where were you and Dai attacked?"I ask her, an idea suddenly popping up in my head.

"We were walking the streets and then we heard a woman screaming bloody murder, we follow her screams to the forest and then we got ambushed."

"Then dad, that is where you and Hase should go and check to see if you guys can find anything that would lead to where they have Dai and I will go and track his suit." I instructed.

"We will do that." Dad said and Hase nodded in agreement. "Come on Miayana if you want us to drop you off."

I give Robyn a quick hug, and she whisper be careful in my ear. I tell her I will and then I left the room.

I quickly booted up the main computer and immediately started searching through the files on it. About five minutes into my searching I found the tracking systems that I link to our suits. I click onto the one that has Dai's superhero name under it and started putting my IT knowledge to work. After two minutes of clicking and entering, the once red dot that was in the middle of the suit is now green and flashing, meaning that he is not unconscious...or dead. Yay. I watch as the computer did it's thing, as it track the green dot through the city until it stop and the green light starts to beep rapidly.

"I found him." I call dad and tell him.

"Where?" He ask quickly sounding happy but worried at the same time

"Um....let me check." I hold the phone in between my right shoulder and ear, ad I type furiously away on the keyboard. "He is at the very highest floor of a skyscraper on Flores Street."

"Stay where you are, I am going to go get my son." Dad said with no emotions detected in his voice.

What, he can't go by himself, what if they are just luring him in to experiment on him again. He needs back up, he needs me.

"Dad, you can't go rescue Dai alone. You need help."

"No, I can-"

"No, you can't. I am the hero, and I can help you rescue him. You might have powers but you don't have the knowledge to go in and fight. So dad, please let me help you do my job." I am not going to let him do this by himself, I won't lose another member of my team.

"Fine, but we need to hurry. It's all most dawn, and I can't have Dai missing school or else the school board will call Apinya and she will start to worry. And I can't have them-"

"I understand dad, and for what it's worth. He is alive, the tracking system is pulsing. And according to Soul Searcher' s manual, whenever a hero is unconscious the light gets dim. But it's bright as ever and active just like Dai, so dad let's go bring our hero back home."

I suited up and went down to the underground garage and hop onto my bike, turbo speeding out of the secret entrance and onto the empty street.

"Where should I meet you and Hase dad?" I ask through the communicator in my ear.

"We are at the Highland City Park, we can take a short cut through it to reach Flores Street instead of taking the long route. So meet us there by the fountain."

"Roger that." I step on the clutch and speed, Dai am I am coming for you.

I reach the park in under five minutes and I skid to a stop in front of the two men.

"Nice bike." Hase compliment my transport.

"Thank you, it's run off on high turbo power. Where Dai got it from, I have no idea."

"Probbaly from the research and science center at his school." Hase said, still admiring the bike.

"Come on guys, we don't have much time to lose." Dad said impatiently.

I look at dad and saw that he change the clothes he was in, instead of his grey plaid buttom down shirt, he is wear a black muscle shirt underneath a zip up front black leather jacket. Top of with a black jeans and black combat boots, he also has a black beanie on his head. Hase, now he is dressed like he is going on a ski trip slash spy mission. He is decked up in full suit of black just like dad, but instead he has on a black ski mask over his eyes and a coil of rope over his shoulder.

"We need a plan, because we can't just go on a blind spot." I said, tapping on the the monitor on my bike control system.

"I don't need a plan-"

"Dad, just listen." I interrupted his rant. "You and Hase will distract anyone unwanted visitors, because I know they will have men gurading the doors and waiting for us to come and rescue Dai. I will go up to where they have Dai and bring him back down, I will give a signal when I have him and the coast is clear, and you guys get the BMW ready." I instructed them.

"No, I will come up with you. These people are dangerous and I won't let them take you too." Dad utter, a nervous look on his face.

"Dad I just need you to listen to me please, you said once that I have one of the greatest abilities and thst is to read minds. I can hear a person thoughts for miles, so I will use that as and advantage. And if that doesn't work, I will just kick their butts. And if I need your help, I will just call you." I said, putting his mind at ease.

"Ok, let's do this." Dad and Hase went inside the car and I hope back onto my bike and ride off.

"Insight don't walk at the entrance of the skyscraper, they have men guarding the doors. But there is an opening at the back, through an air vent. You can crawl through there and hack into the elevator system to get to the level floor, but to warn you. They are using hyperlift elevators." Robyn said over the com in my ear.

"Got it. By the way, how did you find all of that out?" I ask her.

"We are heroes, we need to have an advantage." She laugh which cause me to chuckle.

We reach the skyscraper and I put my bike on silent mood, riding it around the back where I see the air vent that Robyn had mentioned.

"I see the vent." I said in the com.

"Good, now open it and you guys can all fit." I did as she said, and we all crawled in.

"Ok, let us split up now. You go distract the guards and I will go get Dai." Hase and dad nodded and we part ways. I use my scanner on my hologram monitor in my gloves, and find the elevator with ease. I hear shouting and then fighting, meaning that dad and Hase made themselves present. I quickly hack into the elevator system and the door open up and I run inside, hitting the button for the top floor. The elevator speed up into action, and I also brought back up my dinner. Woah, that thing is fast.' I though to myself. I quickly walk out of the elevator and I can hear it rushing back down. I walk around the empty hall, tracking Dai on my built in tracker in my gloves. The floor is quiet, I can hear my own heavy breathing and my footsteps. I tried to walk a little more quietly, as I came closer to where Dai is. The tracker started beeping and I look ahead to see light coming from under a door at the end of the hall. I tap on my wrist to disable the tracker and tiptoe to the door where I can hear talking coming from inside. I push open the door a crack and peek inside, I gasp silently when I saw Dai strap to a chair and a red head woman dress in a black spandex walking around him. They are lock into a serious conversation, and by the looks of it they know each other. I took a closer look at the red headed woman and got a read off of her.

'You mongrel, I can't wait for them to get rid of you. And your mother to die of heartbreak, and I can finally get Daison all to myself.' So they do know each other, and she wants....dad-wait, is she the friend that almost killed Apinya? What is her name again? Irma, Iva, Ivy, Isha-"

"You won't get away with this Isla."

Yes, Isla. Thank you Dai. Why is she working with the League, did they promise her that she could get dad after they are done with him?

I watch as Isha slap Dai across his face and I grit my teeth in anger, why isnt he fighting back? He can use his telekinesis to break free, why is he giving Isla the upper hand. She slap him again and again and again, and I taste blood in my mouth from how hard I am biting my lip from anger. As the last slap connect to his cheek, Dai struggle against his restraint.

"Uh uh uh, remember what I said. Fight back and I will make sure they find that sister of yours." Isla Said, a phone in her hand.

So that is why he isn't doing anything, he is protecting me. I need to let him know that I am here.

"She will never fall for your trap, and you will never get my dad. He would rather die then be with you." Isla let out and angry scream and use a whip that glow orange, and whipped him across his chest. Dai scream out in pain and my heart bleeds for him.

'Dai, I am here. You have to fight back.' I hear my voice in my head, I open my eyes and I saw Dai looking at me through the crack in of the door. What just happened, did he hear me?

"What are you looking at?" Isla ask, looking in the direction at the door where I am hiding behind.

"Nothing, I wasn't looking at anything." Dai quickly said, distracting Isla. But she wouldn't have it his way.

"Do you think I am stupid, it's that sister of your isn't it." She said coming towards the door.

"No it is not, it's just you and me." Dai quickly said, moving his hands against the bondage.

"Insight, come out come out where ever you are." She sings, coming closer to the door. When she almost got to the door, the restrains on Dai snap open and he jump from the chair. He run up to Isla and kick her off of her feet.

"You are going to regret this!" Isla yell angry, pulling out her phone and shouted into it. "Get up here right now!"

"We can't, we are kind of busy down here." A guy said on the other end of the line.

"I don't care, just get up here." She got up and turn to Dai, hand backing him in the jaw.

I kick the door open and grab her by her hair, pulling her away from Dai.

"This is so Good, I have both of Daison' s kids in one place. The League will be so pleased." She gleefully said. "And as for you two, you will be locked in a lab being probed."

I elbow her in the nose hearing a crunch. "You are going to pay for this." She sneered, blood from her nose staining her teeth. She twisted my arm and flip me over, how could someone so thin be so strong. She tighten her grip on my arm and I wince in pain, Dai came up behind her and use his telekinesis to throw her across the room and stuck her there. He painfully drag her slowly down the wall, and then slam her back onto it. A four man army came running into the room and Dai and I get ready for a fight. The first guy charge towards me and I do a spin kick knocking him on to his back. Dai still has Isla pinned to the wall with one hand and the other one pulling one of the other guy to him then through him into the wall next to Isla.

"Soul Searcher, I need some help over here." I call out to him when the two other guy has me cornered.

He look at Isla and the guy and then back to me, he sigh frustratedly and realise the two and came over to me. He came over to where I am, and kick one of the guy in the back and he went forward losing his balance. With him busy with that guy, I look the guy into a defense mode.

'Come on, make a move already.' He thought. I chuckle at him and his face screwed up in confusion. I look to my left and his eyes follow my movement, when he look back to me, he came in contact with the bottom of my boot. He fall back way and hit his head on the iron chair Soul Searcher was strap to. Soul Searcher came up to me and smile.

"We got th-" But he didn't finish what he was going because Isla has that freaky whip wrap around his throat.

"Make any sudden moves, and I tighten this whip." She threaten.

I stayed in place and look from Dai to Isla.

"Ok, I won't move. Just let him go and take me instead." I said to her.

"And why would I do that when I can get paid for bringing in the both of you." She laugh darkly, and the whip tighten around Dai's neck.

"Stop please." I pled to her, when I see Dai's eyes widen and he starts to claw at the whip. "Why are you doing this, I thought that you were Apinya's friend."

"Ha, she wasn't my friend. If she was, Daison would have been my husband and Dai wouldn't be here right now." She wrap the whip around her hand and in result it tightens around Dai's neck.

"I SAID STOP!!!" I yell at her, kicking her in between her legs. She squeal and her grip release on the whip and Dai fell to the floor. He grab his neck and take deep breaths. "Dai run, dad is downstairs." I tell him, standing in between him and Isla.

"But I cant*cough* leave you *cough* here."

"Just go, please." He got up and run out the room, leaving me and Isla and four unconscious men on the ground.

"So the misfit wants to be the hero." She laugh, circling me. But I keep up my guard.

"What do you mean by misfit? I am not a misfit." I said back to her, my fist in front of me.

"Oh sweetheart, you will never fit in. You will always be the forgotten child."

"Shut up." I mumble.

"Oh, did I hit a nerve." She taunt me.

"I am warning you." I said through grit teeth.

"Little Insight wants some daddy love, Daison is only giving you attention because he feel sorry for you. Look at you, I wonder if it was you in trouble if he would have been so adamant to find you. He probably blames you for Dai getting kidnapped, he-"

"I SAID SHUT UP!!" I scream in anger, running up to her and front kick in her abdomen and she stagger a bit. She grab her whip and and try to wrap it around my ankle, but I did a front flip over her and landed perfectly on my feet. She spin around but I yell out in anger and freeze time, punching her in the face then I unfreeze time again and she stagger back confusingly from the pain. All I see is red as anger flows through me , how dare she say all those things. She don't have the right to, I run up back to her confuse form as angry tears run down my cheeks. And I continued freezing and unfreezing time as I punch, jab, upper cut, back and front kicks, spin kicks and last but not least a head butt and then I freeze time one last time and kick her out the glass window. She went down in slow motion, as time flickers to freeze and it's unfreeze stage. And when I thought I would her hear the loud thug as she hits the ground, I see dad flying up with her knocked out body in his hands. He stare at me through the broken window and an unhappy look mask his face as he flew away. I fell to my knees and cry loudly, all of my emotions coming to the surface all at one. I don't know how long I stayed there crying but when I look up I saw Hase kneeling beside me.

"Hey, hey. It is ok, Dai is ok, Robyn is ok, your dad and I are ok, and more importantly you are ok." He put his hands under my feet and left me up bridal style and carried me from the building.

I open my eyes to bright sunlight and whispering, I look around my surrounding and realise that I am in my room at the penthouse. When did I get here? I thought to myself.

"Miayana, you are awake." I hear Robyn's chirpy voice. I follow her voice and saw her, my dad and Hase sitting on the couch in the corner of my room.

"H-how did I get here? Where is Dai?" I panic when i realise that I don't see him.

"Take it easy honey, Dai is at home recovering." Dad said walking up to me.

"Can I go see him?"

"Sure you can." He said happily giving me a hug. "But first thing first, how are you doing? Are you Ok?"

Am I ok? I ask myself. "Yes, I am more thank ok."I smile at him. "And Hase." He look up at me. "Thank you so much for helping us, and....welcome to the team."

He give me a beaming smile and said. "Thank you, I am happy to be apart of it. And you are also welcome."

I am standing in the living room, looking at Dai curl up watching Spongebob on a hug curve smart tv. He look so peacefully as he happily eat popcorn and laugh at the funny parts.

"So are you just going to stand there and stare at me." He said without looking away from the tv.

"So spongebob huh?" I awkwardly said. "I never pegged you for a guy who watches these types of cartoons."

"Well looks can be deceiving." He pass me the popcorn bowl.

I dip my hand in and take out a hand full tasting the butter as i put them one by one in my mouth.

"So, how are you doing?" I ask him.

He tense up for awhile before he relax and then answer. "I am good, just a bit shaken up. But I am glad that I am ok and you, Robyn, dad and Hase are all ok."

I smile at him and turn to look at the tv. "Did you know that dad can fly?"

"Just found out when I saw him flew down with Isla in his arms." Dai laugh.

"Why was she working for the League anyways, did she just do it out of pour jealousy?"

He nodded his head, then said yep, popping the p

"Well we have to be on guard at all times, because the League is not playing around. And we also have to watch out for one another." I wrap my arm around his shoulders.

"Safety in numbers they always say." He mumbles, which makes me look confusingly at him and ask.

"Are you ok?" He nodded and avoided eye contact with me. "Dai, are you sure? You know that you can tell me anything right?" He nodded again. "I won't ever let anything happen to you again." I promise him.

"I know you won't, because there won't be a next time." He said, this time he look at me.

"What?" I ask confusingly.

"There won't be a next time, because I quit the team." With that said he got up from the couch leaving me sitting there in shock with my mouth open staring at the spot he was just sitting.
