Chapter 1"Clang,clang,clang" *Sounds of clashing metals filled the air.The blacksmith halted his hands on his work, directing his attention toward the sound. "She must be awake this time! 'Spoke a voice hoarsely with a creepy smile."Where...where am I?" Muttering, a figure sleeping on the cold floor slowly sat up, as she adjusted her view to the light of her surroundings. Everywhere was dark and it was hard to make out anything. She freaked out and tried to stand up only to see she was caged.She panicked and shook the caged trying to open it but her effort seems fruitless as the door did not even budge "Help!

She turned to her left side and saw someone elseThe person turned on the small kerosine lamp by her side and she could make out where they are now.

Chapter 7Standing on the rooftop opposite BrainHub was a slim figure.She was in black vest and pants,black sneakers with a nose mask.She watched as the police were going to and fro in front of the hospital and smirked"What a waste of time,I was worried for nothing,even till now no one found anything relating to me.it a pity.Jack Mike it is your turn tonight" she turned back and left leaving nothing but a pile of dust.Jay POV"Mr Jack,I need to question you.
