Day Thirty…

~~*****~~

The men present in the Orion Port were on high alert. The heavy tension could be felt around them. Both factions were getting ready for the worst-case scenario. A shootout between the two parties might happen at any time.

The snipers were already in position. They could get a clear shot from their hiding spot. Axel and Chantha were exposed to them. They were just waiting for the go-signal of their leader… the Dragon Lord. With just one call from him, they would start shooting the enemies.

"Sister! Are you okay? Did they hurt you? Did they touch you?" Chantha yelled, asking Violet.

"No. I'm fine," Violet responded, smiling faintly. She was glad to hear her twin sister's voice. She could feel her genuine concern for her.

Chantha bobbed her head. She felt relieved now after hearing that. Setting aside Axel's strange action a while ago, Chantha was able to divert her attention back to their mission.

"Let's exchange now!" Chantha uttered impatiently. The stolen kiss made her distracted a while ago. But she returned to her focus as soon as she saw her twin sister, Violet.

Agustav gazed up, sending a secret signal to someone before he turned to Stephen and Violet. "Remove their blindfolds now," he ordered his underlings.

Syphiruz members also removed the blindfolds of Spade and Jack. Spade was overwhelmed to see the two rival factions facing each other in this place. This was a confrontation between the Red Dragon Mafia and the Syphiruz Mafia.

"See, the Dragon Lord will not let us die," Spade whispered to Jack. Spade believed that the Dragon Lord knew how to value his comrades and friends.

"Yeah, I know," Jack replied weakly. Between them, Jack was the one who received torture from Nathan's men. He felt so weak at this moment. Spade had to hold his body, making him stand on his feet.

Kacha!

The cocking sound of the different guns reverberated in the area. Each man cocked their gun and aimed at their enemies. Both factions were ready to shoot. But they were holding their fire as they waited for the hostages to exchange.

"Don't you dare make a sneaky move, or else, I will annihilate everyone here!" Chantha had spoken once more, showing her fierce personality.

"Haha. Have you forgotten that you are in our territory, Miss? We can bury you alive here," Agustav spat back at her.

Chantha just rolled her eyes skyward and glared at him. Axel already stepped in front of Chantha, blocking her view. "Stop that, Chantha. If you will say another thing, I will seal it again."

Chantha scowled at Axel but she immediately pouted her lips, trying to restrain herself from talking further.

"We can exchange now," Agustav also declared.

"If you fire first, we will not hesitate to shoot," Axel sneered at him. He made sure to stand in front of Chantha to serve as her shield whenever a shootout would happen.

"We know. We are just here to take our comrades!" Agustav responded meaningfully.

He raised his hand and waved to the guards who were holding Violet and Stephen. He signaled the guards to let them go. Axel also did the same. The hostages should walk toward their allies.

"I have a bad feeling about this. I can feel like the Red Dragon Mafia is going to sabotage this," Chantha murmured, tugging the hem of Axel's jacket from the back.

"Don't worry. I got you. Just stay focused," Axel mumbled, reassuring her.

Spade, who was assisting Jack, began to walk toward their comrades. Violet and Stephen did the same. The surrounding was engulfed with deafening silence.

Everyone's attention was focused on the four people walking in front of them. The heavy tension grew further when both hostages were inching closer and closer to their comrades.

It looked like the Syphiruz Mafia was obedient and following the rules of this negotiation. Following Nathan's instruction, the members had no plan of shooting the enemies first. They would stick to their Supreme Leader's rules as necessary.

Just when they thought that the situation was under their control and everything was going smoothly, suddenly they heard a gunshot when the four were almost reaching their allies' sides.

Bang!

"What the hell?" 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

"Who fired the shot?"

The place was suddenly put in chaos especially when someone among the four hostages collapsed. Among them, Spade was hit in the back.

"Fire!!! The Syphiruz Mafia fired the first shot!" Agustav shouted, ordering his men.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Violet!"

"Chantha!"

The exchange of hostages became the exchange of gunshots between the two factions. Someone fired the gun and they blamed the Syphiruz Mafia for that since one of the members of the Red Dragon Mafia was hit.

Everyone tried to take cover, avoiding the bullets. Axel made sure to protect Chantha while Violet pulled Stephen, making them drop on the floor.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Kill them all!"

"The Syphiruz Mafia can't leave here alive."

"Protect our Branch Leaders!"

"Target their Supreme Leader!"

Several screams and orders from the commanding officers could be heard. The Red Dragon Mafia thought they already cornered Syphiruz.

There were several shots coming from different directions. Violet was helping Stephen to take shelter as they crawled going to the van.

Chantha kept on shooting the enemies to take cover for her twin sister and Stephen. "Sis! Dr. Zhou, come here! Faster! Get inside the van!"

Their vans were not ordinary vans. Nathan paid so much to get this armored van! Its parts were bulletproof, a good hiding spot, cover, and shelter during the shootout!

Looking after each other, Violet and Stephen were finally able to reach the van. Chantha extended her hand to reach for her twin sister's hand. But snipers were everywhere. Another gunshot was heard.

Bang!

That gun was aimed at the twins– either Chantha or Violet.

"Nooo!"

Violet screamed when she saw the red spotlight coming from the sniper's rifle directed at Chantha.

Bang! Bang!

But before the bullet could hit Chantha's chest, someone stepped forward, hugging her as he used his body as the shield. It was Axel!

"Aah~" Axel groaned when the bullets hit his body.

"Axel…" Chantha mumbled his name.
