Snake coiled on the sword

D led Zsadin in their practice room. She began observing the interiors, before sitting directly on the floor. Surprised, D joined her and sat cross-legged opposite her. "I was informed that you people were attacked last week. Could you tell me your turn of events?"

D paused for a while, glanced at Zsadin before speaking. "We were going to the studio. When Ron was about to park the SUV a black Benz stopped before us. And before we could react, gunshots were fired. Luckily, the SUV was bulletproof and we didn't get hurt or else.....", his voice faded.

"Did you note the plate number or noticed anything unusual or anyone in the car?"

"Uhm...no. Actually we were so shocked while Raanz almost fainted. We couldn't do anything like that." replied D, "but there was something on the car's windshield, something like a snake....in black or dark grey colour....I don't remember correctly".

"Was it a snake coiled on a crooked sword?"

"Yes, exactly. A black coloured snake. But wait, how do you know that? Do you know the attacker or something?"

"Not exactly I would say. But yes, I know him", saying this Zsadin forced a smile and turned towards the door. "Thank you for your help. We will now head towards the villa".

D didn't know how to react. She looked so insanely gorgeous yet acted so blunt. He couldn't remove his gaze from her. Mesmerized by those eyes, he felt as if he could look at them for his whole life. While thinking of Zsadin as interesting, D rushed outwards and smiled. This was his first genuine smile which looked so elegant on his handsome face.

When Zsadin headed down, she could see Nancy and the others, chatting with the boys. She just shook her head. 'How can these people talk so much!' The batch stood in alert position as they saw their chief coming down. Zsadin walked towards them. "Have you decided on the team members? If yes, then assist them and report to the villa. If not, do it right now". A shiver ran down through everybody. 'Well, this is not going to be that much fun' thought the boys. Ah, she is scary!

Nancy walked towards Raanz, while Adams got hold of Sean. Rose looked towards Vell and nudged him. Seeing this, Fobi got anxious. "Hey, you are not going to protect me? Officer, atleast pay some attention towards my safety!!"

"Will you stop yelling and listen to me?" said a visibly annoyed Zsadin. Fobi just hmphed and stopped sulking. "Ryan will protect you and will meet you at the villa directly. Each of them has partners which means each would be protected by two people". "What about D? Who is protecting him?" Sean enquired.

"Chief is herself going to be protect him."

"And who is her partner?"

"She doesn't need any partner", proudly claimed Nancy. "Her skills are enough to protect him. She is good enough even if we all go against her". 'Yeahh yeah.. well if she can break bones to prove herself....we are just putty in her hands!' If Nancy could hear the boys' thoughts, she would die laughing.

"Alright just report to the villa and yes, Nancy take D with you. The password is Chief Lee's birth date. I will meet you all in one hour".

"Chief, be careful. Mr. Cooper is a crooked guy". Zsadin nodded and headed outside.

She started her bike and drove towards Jannet's. She parked her bike and strolled towards the outlet. Jannet's was the club she and James had taken membership of in their early years. Those were her golden days when James would treat her like a friend and hang out with her. They enjoyed being in each other's company. That incident drove him so angry that he almost killed her. Snap! Zsadin startled back from the past to see an annoyed James look at her with the most disgusted frown. He nudged her over. Realising the situation she followed him into the club. Immediately a group of four men attacked her with rods, baseball bats and whatever brutal they could find. They seemingly struggled to give her a brutal hit. Jannet, who was the club's owner, could just look at this barbaric human activity. She was toi afraid to help Zsadin. She just cheered her. "You can do it, Zsadin. Just tear them to pieces. That's my girl!" "Can you not yell, she is not listening to you!" yelled an angry James. The memories still intact James thought that he could just not let Zsadin remain alive. She killed his wife, how will he let her live in peace. He could just get her to fight with him till his bloodthirst returns to normal. "James, have you ever considered listening to Zsadin? You should have given her a chance to explain! You are the biggest moron I have ever seen!", exclaimed an angry Jannet.

Zsadin dodged almost every attack when James suddenly appeared and punched her in her face, earning a smirk and a nosebleed as a reward from her. Zsadin hit one of the men with her bare arm on his throat and his rod slipped out of his hands. Grabbing it, Zsadin hit each of the men before turning towards James, smirking. 'Face me head on, jerk!' She dropped the blood covered rod and leapt towards James. Getting dodged, hit and dodging for a few times, Zsadin and James laid on the club's floor panting heavily. Taking advantage of the situation, Zsadin grabbed James' hand and gave him a headlock. Finally, James gave up and glanced at Zsadin who was wiping off her blood from her hands. She looked like she would collapse any moment.

"You...don't dare pull a stunt with me....I....I will cut your balls off the next time you try something like this...!" She stammered while trying to gather her thoughts and herself. Struggling with the bruises, she reached her bike and drove off to the villa.
