The Art & Design building

 

During the busy young woman's life of, Killa, mostly her love life and freedom of choices. There was still the college part that she had chosen. She did a good job with her part-time job and also did quite amazing work in school. She was very terminated in her assignments. It was difficult to maintain good work while finding creative and fresh ideas in each and every art piece to meet her professor's expectations as well as to satisfy Killa's internal emotions. Killa didn't have the unsolved way out of her imagination. She had plenty of ideas to provide to her mentors, who decided on her artwork. Maybe because of the new present life that she had been living and the feeling that she would like to express, but she couldn't. Those were probably why her assignmentsprised her classmates, including the judges.

"Should we go back to my place?" Maki asked Killa while walking.

"Sure, I already sent all my assignments," Killa said,

"Cool! I'll order pizza...and beer, too. Liah isn't free today, so it's just you and me." Maki was speaking when Killa noticed a similar guy in her memory that she had forgotten for a long time. "Killa...are you listening?" Maki called her.

Killa was still standing and staring at a shining white hair who was leaning back at his clean white sports car.

"Who are you looking at?" Maki wondered, noticing Killa's shocking expression on her cute face.

"I'm sorry, Maki. I don't think I can go back to your place." Killa said without looking at her,

Maki was worried and curious about the situation. "Okay." she didn't make any fuss.

Killa left Maki and went straight to the unusual guy before her with a curious and upset feeling,

"Hi, sister. " He had White hair and was taller and more masculine than his old body, which was lean and slender, but his eyes were still the same way he used to look at her.

"Ree," Killa greeted back.

"Get in," he said, but she stood still, "please," he said,

Killa got into his car without the driver, which was Ree's unusual habit of driving on his own.

"What a surprise?" Ree broke the air. "You look different," Ree said,

"You too," Killa said,

"You're prettier," he said, "I mean, you look happier."

"What is it?" Killa cut it to the point.

"I just miss my sister."

She stared at him, "There's something." Ree tried to speak his intention.

"No," Killa cut him again.

"You don't even know what I'm going to say," Ree said,

"I don't want to be involved in your family anymore," Killa said,

"My family? Killa...you're so cold. You are always cold...to us," Ree said, "But I know you're not that frozen," He kept saying. Killa turned to look at Ree, and Ree stopped beside the road. "Zad," Killa seemed to be interested, "Yeah, your Zad was captured at The Capone,"

She was shocked and totally frozen. "He was tamed."

Killa's eyes opened wide.

The young pretty woman with long winter hair, covered with a black cap and big black hood, was walking around at the construction site.

"Hey man, some girl is asking for you," a guy covered with dust over his body said to a tall, tan guy. He turned to look at the girl, and a smile showed on his face.

"Killa, you come to see me?" he asked with a happy face.

"Joonwoo," Killa said his name.

He saw her face, so he knew immediately something was happening. "Did something happen?"

"Back then, when you said you wanted to work for me---wanted to be my man, is it true?" She asked.

"Yes, it's true," He answered without hesitation.

"Do you still want to work with me?" she asked,

He was confused, "If you don't want--"

"Yes," He replied right away.

"Yes?" Killa raised her voice a little.

"Yes, Killa," He said with a happy face.

Southland

Killa was back in her hometown with Ree and Joonwoo. During the return trip, Ree told her the details about what was going on.

Zadkiel was given the order to negotiate the contract between Lysander and The Capone. Little Ree knew about the agreement between them but not as much as the one who gave the order, who was not the old man that everyone was afraid of but was Yeongho, the second child of the Lysander.

Killa didn't know about YeongHo's double plan inside his order, or maybe she did. Is the double plan even there? At the moment, she didn't even care who gave the order or why Ree bothered to care about him. She was more upset that no one helped him get out of this place. Zadkiel was still the man of the Lysander family, and because Zadkiel and Killa had a strong relationship back then, yes, she still cared for her men.

Ree found a place for Killa and her men not too far from the Capone but not too close to Lysander. And then he left the secret plan in her hand.

"I found their blueprint for you, Master," Ero said.

"Let's study and remember," Killa said as she observed carefully,

"Any plan Master?" Ero asked,

"Just find weapons...a lot of them," Killa said steadily. She was back to her old cold-blooded, to her old self. The merciless on her face and intimidating aura around her body,

"Men?" Ero asked,

"No,"

"Then we get in without no one knowing, right?" Joonwoo assumed.

"No,"

Ero and Joonwoo were confused. "We study the map only for Zad place," she said,

"Then Big Boss...will know that you're here. Are you planning to see your family? or telling them," Ero asked,

"No"

"What exactly are you going to do, Killa?" Joonwoo asked.

'Is he just called the master by her name?' Ero thought.

"I'm gonna blow that place up. After that, they will know I've arrived." Killa said with a serious face.

They had studied the map and found the weapons for themselves and also for their master. They wondered how they could follow the plan with a lot of weapons but only three of them with six hands. Even though a thousand weapons were lying down for them, how could they manage to use them all in time? 

"Hey..." Joonwoo called the red-haired guy who minded his own business at that time. "Are we going to that place when no one is around?" Joonwoo asked. Ero didn't answer. "That's impossible. There will be someone watching over him security for sure, and it's Mafia, not just a couple 10 or 20." Joonwoo assumed.

"Why are you scared?" Ero asked back.

"Not at all, just 3 people against.."

"100 up," Ero knew the number of the Capone's men. "Now you're scared?" Ero wasn't fond of Joonwoo.

"That is not the meaning of what my face looks like," Joonwoo explained himself.

"So what is it?" Ero smirked at him.

"It's kind of impossible," Joonwoo said,

"You underestimate my master...if the number of enemies was a problem for her, she couldn't stand in this place alive. How do you think she would be able to do it?" Ero stopped his action and turned to talk to him properly.

"Her people," Joonwoo assumed, said

"Just 2," Ero said, Joonwoo was shocked. "Me and Zad," Ero repeated it. "You'll see...if you don't believe in her, you can back out. Just me and my master, that's enough," he said,

"I believe in Killa no matter who she is, the Lysander or just a girl who works at the cafe," Joonwoo said with a confident face, and then he walked away. He wasn't scared for himself but for her. But the words of the red-haired guy who worked with her for a long time reminded him how much he trusted her. Joonwoo had never backed out since that day after asking her.

The night came the silent night as the quiet approached to make the loud arrival after.

"Master, you don't have to be worried. You go to Zad, and I'll take care of this," Ero said to his master outside Capone's place.

"Joonwoo, if there's something..." Killa was worried about him because he had never worked with her before, and she didn't know how well he was or what skills he had. Was he going to be able to take care of himself? Unlike Ero, he was amazing at his skills and mad like her.

"Just see each other after helping him." Joonwoo said and paused, "Then you'll see my skills, which you really want to see so badly." Joowoo smirked.

"Ahem, show off," Ero was being sarcastic.

"Aren't you already rusted? Be careful. You might shoot your own head." Joonwoo said,

"We'll see Dickhead," Ero mumbled,

"Stop, just...don't die. Both of you," Killa cut them off. "If you die, I won't forgive you." She said with a dead-eye glare.
