"Boss! We have him!" Three men in black walked in, dragging Mac whose head had been covered up with a black bag. He seemed lifeless. They walked into an abandoned garage and the door shut tightly. Everywhere turned dark with only a dim lighting above Durk's head. "Well, well, well! Look who we have here! The poor boy." Durk said with his eyes shining like lights. His hatred for Robin would finally be satisfied that night. He had ordered Robin to be killed but at the last minute, he changed his mind. He ordered for Robin to be kidnapped and it would give him more room to torture Robin. As soon as Durk stood up to his feet, he ran with speed and his hand tightened. Getting to 'Robin', he sent a punch toward the fake Robin. With glee in his eyes, Durk watched his nemesis fall to the ground, so weakly."What? So, he is not so strong, huh?" He said with a mocking tone. He knew how Robin had tackled him and he knew his enemy wasn't a weak catch. But then he didn't find anything wrong w
"Mac!!" Robin yelled as he rushed toward the shut door of the garage. The gunshots continued again and in anger, he dashed to the door and kicked it. A big dent appeared in the door and without thinking twice, he continued to hit it. With so much force, the door flew open, bursting out from its hinges. Dust rose up in the air, covering Robin's face and for a moment, he couldn't see anything.A few seconds later, light shone into the garage and he saw Mac tied limply to a wooden stand. "Oh, look who is here!" Durk called out with so much glee with a gun in hand. Robin looked from him to Mac and he could see blood spilling from his friend's body."What have you done?" Robin yelled as he rushed into the garage but Durk suddenly raised the gun at him. "If you move, I'll shoot!" Durk threatened and Robin had to halt. If he got shot, he wouldn't be able to survive at all. The whole point of saving Mac would be baseless. "Don't you dare pull the trigger! Else, I'll pull your tongue out!"
With groans of pain and several attempts to get up on his feet, Robin still couldn't. However, his heart was beating in fear and he could still hear the system's voice resounding in his head. QUITTING IS TANTAMOUNT TO FAILURE!The thought of failing and losing everything he owned now, including his friend, Mac was terrifying. "I will not die!" He whispered with red eyes. "What did you say?" Durk asked, mockingly. He looked down at Robin with a smirk and the way he writhed in pain enticed him so much. He had longed so much to have Robin below him and now was the time. He decided to record this moment for keeps sake. As soon as he took out his phone, to take pictures of Robin, he felt a force. Suddenly, the phone went flying a few distances away and Durk could only look on in shock. Before he knew what was happening, he was sent a punch across the face. Blood spurted out of his mouth and when he finally registered what was happening, Robin was already standing up on his feet. He
Robin opened his eyes with a sharp intake of breath and jolted up from the hospital bed. His head whipped around to see himself in a hospital but in the next second, a sudden wave of dizziness hit him. In the next second, he fell back on the bed with a slump. The machines connected to his body started to blare in alarm so much that he felt like he could hear the sound in his brain. "He is awake!" The doctor and nurses rushed into his hospital room with worried looks on their faces. They saw Robin with his eyes open but he was unmoving. His heart rate has spiked up so much and they rushed to bring him back to normal. Robin had suffered a hit in the head, twice and it was a miracle that he didn't get brain damage after everything. "Everything is set, doctor!" One of the nurses said and quickly the doctor started to perform his routine on Robin. He tried to bring his heart rate back to normal. All this while, his hands were tightened around him while the system's screen was display
Days had passed and Robin had been in the hospital with Mac. He had gotten his bandage off but his friend wasn't awake yet. During this time, Angie had been coming around and he was already fed up with her antics. "Hi, Robin." She greeted him as soon as she walked into his hospital room. Her eyes blinked at him as he waved at her, nonchalantly. "Why are you here?" Robin asked, with his head in his hands. He felt a bit nauseous due to the heavy perfume she had on. "I'm here to give you food. I know the hospital's food wouldn't be so tasty." She said and he chuckled. "I never complained, did I?" Robin said, with a nonchalant tone. Seeing the way Angie was acting, he was a bit wary as he never wanted any attachment with her or any other woman."Yeah! But I want you to get well." She replied and Robin went quiet. Soon, she set the food on the table but he didn't move an inch. He never knew if the food was poisoned or not. Though it smelt really nice, he couldn't trust just anyone an
For a moment, Robin was taken aback by her words and he couldn't even say anything. He then spoke up, "Aren't you mistaken?" He asked. He frowned, wondering if this was how people were rude to people whom they did not even know. "Of course, I'm not mistaken!" The salesperson said as she eyed him, condescendingly. "I should not even waste my time with you. If you want a house, you can do some window shopping and get lost!" She thundered and then turned around to walk away. Her hips swayed seductively as she walked away but Robin wasn't one bit moved. For a few minutes, Robin stood in the same place as he watched other salespeople attend to other customers in the real estate company. "Hello, sir. I think you should come back some other time. My colleagues are vehemently against attending to you." One of the salespeople walked up to Robin and said, politely. She looked timid and it was as if she was having a difficult time. He didn't want to make things more difficult for her, so
"Swipe that card and let's get it over with, Yilena. You should also prepare to Pack your things and leave." The arrogant salesperson said with a devious look. People like her would always seek for a person's downfall and Robin was not surprised to see such a vicious look in her eyes.On the other hand, Yilena shook due to the threat thrown at her. She looked at Robin who assured her with a nod. Slowly, she went over to the counter and pressed a few buttons, she then swiped the card. They all waited with bathed breaths but there was no sound of the card going through. "You see what I told you all? He is a pauper!" The arrogant salesperson yelled, in happiness. "Kowtow at my feet now!" She yelled.Robin was confused about what was happening. He looked at Yilena but she was obviously fiddling with the machine in her hand. He knew that there was more than enough money to pay for the dark mansion, in his card. "Didn't you hear what I said? Bow before me, now!" The salesperson conti
As the taxi pulled over in front of the school's building, Robin got down confused and bewildered that he didn't get any reward from the system. "Why do I not have a reward?" He asked the system, with a frown.[Robin Claire, as stated earlier, you will get another mission and your reward will be given to you, later on. However, failure to fulfill this mission, you are going to lose your just-acquired hacking skills.]"What?" Robin asked in shock as he stood before the school building. His eyes bulged, knowing the hacking skills he acquired, were related to the last mission he did, of saving Mac. But now, he stood a chance to lose his skills if he failed the next mission. It would only mean he was not worthy of the skill. He took a deep breath, to calm himself and he spoke up. "What then is my next mission?" He asked with a sigh. He could see that students around were looking at him, weirdly. They had seen the news and they knew how he had saved Mac like a hero. But then Robin di
