Chapter 30
“Actually it is, and I'll help you two.” She said, surprising both of them.
“How, are you sure?” Daniel asked immediately, and Tanya nudged him to stop talking.
“We are not escaping, and we don't need your help.” Tanya said.
“Oh really? Then maybe I'll just tell my brother, that he's got a bunch of traitors.” Lucia threatened.
“Don't! If you can help us escape, then we're willing.” Daniel said, while fidgeted with her fingers.
“What about you Tanya? Are you going to co-operate?” Lucia asked Tanya who nodded slowly, for fear of being reported to Lucas.
But somehow, she felt like staying, deep within her.
“Good, by tomorrow night, you both would be out of here.” Lucia said, before turning around to walk away, her arms folded, and a sly smirk on her lips.
“Good night then.” Tanya said, as she got up from where they both sat.
“So quick?” He asked her.
“Yes.” She replied.
Tanya walked back to the room, she shared with Maria.
“Hey, Tanya, what's up?” Maria asked, and Tanya just shook her head.
“Nothing, I'm just stressed out.” Tanya replied and Maria sighed.
“I understand, work here, is hectic!” Maria said, and Tanya nodded.

A figure was seen holding a knife, while also dressed in black, with a thorough stare, you would discover it was a female.
She crept her way into El's room, before removing the hoodie that covered her face, revealing Cat's face.
“You think you can steak my man? You must be joking El, I'll kill you personally!” Cat said, as she took out the knife, wanting to stab it into El's chest, but another knife was fast enough, to dive into her own chest, making her pause, as he chest began to bleed.
El suddenly woke up, shocked to see the scene before her, Crusher shoving a knife into Cat's chest.
“What are you doing, Crusher?” She asked, her palm placed over her mouth in fright.
“She tried to kill you.” Crusher said, as she brought the knife out, making Cat fall to the ground, dead.
“She was what?”
“Trying to kill you El, I saved you” Crusher said, a lot of emotions in his eyes.
“What are we going to do with her body then?” El asked in fear.
“You just have to testify tomorrow, that you did it, out of self defense.”
Crusher said plainly, before dropping the knife and then made to go out of the room when El held his hands.
“I'm scared please, I can't sleep alone.” She told him.
“And what do you want me to do?”
“Can I sleep with you?” She asked, “I mean in your room”
”Fine let's go.” Crusher said, and she got up clinging unto his body, wild staring at Cat's lifeless body as they left the room.
“What were you doing that you were able to Save me?” El asked, as they got to his room.
“She had threatened earlier, so I decided to keep watch.” Crusher said, laying down while facing the other side.
His eyes widened when her arms wrapped around his waist ,”Thankyou” She whispered from behind, before shutting her eyes while Crusher's eyes, remained open for a while before he finally fell asleep.
*NEXT MORNING*
The previous recruiters gathered together, their eyes staring at the two figures, on the podium, Lucas and Tanya.
Josie frowned at this, 'Why we're they standing together?' She wondered, Jealousy, 'I thought she was just a maid?'
“Now, you all were put on watch the previous day, so not all of you would be staying on Earth.” Lucas said, and they all threw him questioning gaze.
Soon, about thirty of them fell down dead, due to gunshots, and the rest became scared.
“They are traitors, sent in disguise.” He clarified the reason for killing them,”And as for the rest of you, still alive, as long as you don't betray us, you're safe. Now the mobsters would you your various uniforms so that you can know where you all belong.”
They all nodded, some still in shock, as they made their way to the mobsters.
Lucas held Tanya's hands, as they walked out of the hall, and Daniel, Josie and Laura, glaring gazes followed them out.
'What's he doing to her??' Daniel thought to himself.
<><>
“Are you sure, you did it out of self defense?” Lucas asked, Cat who had her head bowed down.
“Yes Boss, It was out out of self defense.” El replied Lucas.
“Any eye witnesses?” Lucas asked, and Crusher stepped forward immediately.
“Yes boss, I was there?” Crusher said.
“Doing what?” Lucas asked.
Just as Crusher was about to reply, Lucas waved it dismissively, “I don't care, everyone is dismissed.”
They all bowed, as they walked out of the hall.
“Let's go train, Ladrocinta.” Lucas said and Tanya paused.
“Train? Please master, training is too hard.” She pouted.
“Master?”
“I'm sorry. I mean Lucas.” She said, looking away.
“Common, look at me.” He said, as he turned her face to his.
“We are going to train and that's final.” Lucas said, to her and she frowned.
Lucia suddenly walked in, faking a smile.
“I'm I interrupting anything, brother?” She asked.
“What do you want Lucia?” He asked her.
“Nothing, just passing by, and decided to say hi, since you didn't come to see me, after I was released from the cell.”
“You're obviously okay, and we are about to train, are you coming?”
“Nope, I'm going to school, remember? Bye.” She said, and walked out immediately.
