Darlene's Point of View "Can you do me a favor?" I asked Fire Queen. "I'm just doing this for our friendship and to thank you for saving me last night. Just tell me when and where," she replied. "Tonight, 7:00 pm at the Bliss Restaurant. We two will meet him, but don't let him know that I'm with you," I said. "Why me?" Fire Queen asked. "I'm not interested in him and you can go there alone. Don't worry, I won't tell him that it's you who will meet up with him," she said. "Not interested? Isn't he the son of the woman who saved your life and the one who gave you a new identity?" I asked. "Lady Black Dragon already died. I don't care about him anymore. He is not my boss," Fire Queen replied. "Lady Black Dragon cares a lot about her son. You cared about Lady Black Dragon and you must care about her loved ones too," I said. "Don't you want to pay back her goodness by helping her son?" I asked. "Why do you suddenly want me to help the new Black Dragon?" Fire Queen asked me. "We don't know if we can trust him. We don't know if he is a good man like his mother," she said. "Well, we will know that if we meet him," I said. "Alright, fine. I have nothing to do, so I'll come with you tonight," she finally agreed. "Good," I replied. "By the way, why don't you join our small organization?" I asked. "It's quite adventurous and you can help a lot of people," I said. "Join you in catching criminals? That's quite risky. Why not kill the criminals?" she asked. "We wanted to give them a chance to change and become good if possible. We only kill if necessary and it depends on the situation," I replied. "I don't like your kind of game. Besides, I want to do what I want and not follow anyone's order anymore. The Black Dragon has already died. I have my freedom and free will now to do anything," Fire Queen said. "That's your choice," I replied. "Just remember this, we are friends and as long as you don't go against us, we won't bother to make things hard for you. But if you become an unreasonable criminal too someday, I can't promise that we will still become friends," I said. "Don't threaten me," she replied and stood up, but she sat down again and tried to calm herself. "I'm not a bad girl, but if necessary, I know how to kill just to defend myself too," she said. "I know that. I'm just reminding you," I said. Then, someone called Fire Queen's phone. "It maybe him," she said to me and answered the call. Fire Queen talked to Black Dragon while I finished my plate. Jack and Danny have already left us. "He said that he had a lot of questions and he agreed to meet with me tonight," Fire Queen said. "That's good news," I replied. "If you're done, follow me to my room. I'll let you borrow some of my clothes so that you can take a bath now," I said. "No need. I will go home now," Fire Queen replied. "If that's what you want, I will let Danny send you home," I said. "That's better. Let's just meet at the Bliss Restaurant tonight," she said and stood up. I stood up too. "Wait, I will just call Danny," I said and immediately went to Danny's room myself. I knocked on the door three times and Danny opened it. "Oh, Claire. What is it?" he asked. "Fire Queen wants to go home now. Can you please send her home?" I asked. "I'm not a driver," he immediately replied and laughed. "Joke, Hahahaha! Sure, besides I have nothing to do now. We had just failed to capture Leon. Jack is surely trying to track him down now using his connections," he said. I rolled my eyes. "Are you sure that it's okay if you drive her home?" I asked because I felt ashamed of his joke. Yes, he is not a driver, but one of my comrades in our nameless organization. "Of course," he replied. "Where is she now?" Danny asked. "Waiting for you in the living room," I replied. "Let's go," he said and we went to the living room. "Fire, Danny is here. He will send you home," I said while walking toward her. "Alright. Let's go, Danny?" Fire Queen asked. "Let's go," Danny said and they made their way out. "Take care. Bye," I said and watched them going out of the main door. I went to Jack's office and found him busy on his computer. "Hey, what are you doing?" I asked while looking around. There are a lot of wires, electrical tapes, parts of computers and other gadgets on a long table here. He may be trying to make something out of it. On the other side, there are three computers, one of it is what Jack is using right now. "I'm waiting for some updates from my spy and connections about what happened last night in the Busko g**g," Jack replied. "Leon had escaped. Someone helped him out when all the cops were unconscious. Only those dead bodies and injured criminals who were shot and didn't manage to escape were overtaken by the back ups of the police. You killed almost all the first batch of cops who raided the rest house. It took so long before the back ups came. That's why a lot of criminals and gangsters had escaped," Jack said. "I'm sorry," I apologized and sat on the chair beside him facing the computer. "We made the wrong move. When I and Danny entered the arena, it seemed like we had put ourselves into a cage. The Arena has only one way out and the police are all waiting out there. We have no choice but to fight against them," I explained. "If only your friend wasn't there. I'm sure you took down Leon and got out of their hideout before the cops came," Jack said. "It's my fault. I couldn't think properly last night and put our lives at risk," I replied. "It has already happened. We are safe and it's a great experience. No need to blame anyone," Jack said. "Leon will surely hide himself in a secure place. When he recovered, he might not be able to walk again, but I'm sure that he will hunt us using his assets," I said. "Hahahaha!" Jack laughed. "Even if he hunts us, he might only find us but won't be able to make his revenge," Jack replied. "I put a threatening letter on his jacket before we left him. If he won't surrender to the police, it means that he will fight against us and we will make sure to kill him," I told Jack. "Great, but I'm sure that he is not the kind of man that will be threatened just like that. Moreover, you shot his legs and he will surely not let it go," Jack replied. "The question is, can we be threatened by him?" Jack asked. "No," he answered his own question. Lol! Well, I might be afraid of such a resourceful and powerful man if I were an ordinary person. Yes, I'm not a monster who just killed anyone, but I'm a ferocious Demon who kills those who deserve death.
