After validating, and experiencing the drama of meeting the shocking truth about Meliza, Alexis brought Lea to see Andre.

"I'm sorry about earlier," Alexis said to Lea who sat across from her. The small cafe table was a small platform for the two to talk intensely. "You went through something uncomfortable."

Lea smiled, and to Alexis, Lea's smile was the moonlight that lit up the dark night of her life.

"It's okay, I'm happy to be with you."

"That's what I wanted to talk to you about. When I'm in a mess, and I seem to have nothing, you respond to me warmly, and when you know something big about me, you still stick by me. Everything seems to be okay with you. I really appreciate that."

Lea smiled again, but this time her white teeth were visible, indicating that she was very flattered by Alexis' compliment.

"Thank you," she replied.

"How about we start dating?" Alexis signals, now convinced of Lea's feelings for her.

"Why not. You're my first love too, so I haven't completely gotten ov

    Alexis couldn't believe it at first, but when he turned his head and saw the man Andre had pointed out smiling at him, Alexis was stunned.It was Lea who immediately waved and greeted him."Mr. Kingston."Kingston.The name spontaneously came to Alexis' mind, as she muttered a name."Alexis Phoenix Kingston."Alexis' head suddenly felt spinning, then heavy, as the memory he had always thought of as a nightmare was present, but the face of the man in his every fear was clearly the man not far from where he was sitting now.The veil was lifted, the accident of an attempted murder from the nightmare that had haunted his was a reality.The fear Alexis felt was now realized as the fear of losing the man wearing sunglasses, who was his biological father.Alexis only moved to the table where James Kingston was, after Lea and Andre had preceded him."Daddy," Alexis called awkwardly. The memory started to come, as James stepped closer and hugged him."Zero. You're my savior." James couldn't ex

    After doing her bidding and officially re-entering the rigorous training as a Black Dragon special agent, Alexis arrived at the place where his mission had begun. "Are you ready, Alex?" was Andre's final question, before watching Alexis get out of the prison car, which of course was a set-up. "Ready!" Alexis' nod and cold stare made Andre even more certain of his friend's readiness. "Okay." Andre nodded to the police officer who was waiting for his order, and was signaling him to open the door of the prisoner's car to let Alexis out. "Good luck, Lieutenant Alexis. I'm proud of you!" Andre bid farewell to Alexis, who was now taken to the city jail for paperwork and a haircut. Alexis gasped, as a prison guard and two of his colleagues signaled for her to get up and follow. Alexis nodded her head. Her cold, stony face was the next thing to appear. Two metal doors had been opened and then closed again, causing a rather loud banging sound. Alexis' hands were handc

    Without further a do, the man with the bulging muscles raises both hands and thrusts them at Alexis' face.But what he was doing was stopped by one of Alexis' fists."What is this?" asked Alexis angrily."Greetings.""My name is Alexis!" said Alexis loudly. Pushed by the man in front of him with just one blow, he fell backwards, hitting two of his other friends, causing the three men in front of him to fall to the floor simultaneously.The other men spontaneously stepped aside to avoid being hit by the three men's bodies."I'm sleepy. My visiting hours are over. Get out of here!" snapped Alexis with a glare and a cold look.Alexis' two clenched fists were a frightening sight for the men next. One by one, they came out of Alexis' cell, closed it and checked the keyhole. Alexis wondered how they could have opened it when he had clearly seen that the door had been locked by the prison guards.Just as Alexis was about to crouch down to check, someone suddenly appeared in front of h

    Alexis stood up as the lanky man, whose name she did not yet know, looked the other way."What do you want?" asked Alexis bluffly, causing the man to almost tiptoe in surprise. "What's your name?" Alexis tried to make introductions."Ed...Eddy.""Why are you so scared?" probed Alexis, following Eddy's gaze elsewhere.The night was drawing in, and it was quiet, but there were a few sounds of inmates fiddling with the cell bars or talking with each other, or even between cells."Please don't tell him if you see me locking this cell, promise." Eddy told Alexis, not letting go of his gaze in the direction of where the other cells were."Why, who are you afraid of?" probed Alexis. "Is it the guy who hit me earlier? Who is he?" Alexis wanted to know."He's the gang leader here. I don't want to cause trouble with him." After saying this, Eddy ran off and disappeared from Alexis' sight, even before Alexis was about to ask him some questions but it was impossible.Alexis decided to go back to

    Alexis turned his body around. He was worried that what he was doing had been noticed by the police guards inside the main area.But a dark-skinned man of about the same height as his stood up, let go of the hand on his shoulder and frowned."Are you new here?" he asked. "But why are you hanging around?" he added."Who are you?" Alexis asked in turn, but politely, as the man in front of him looked a lot older than he was. "My name is Martin. They call me 'old man' Martin."Just as Alexis was about to answer Martin's previous question, from behind him, came a deafening scream."THERE HE IS...THE WATCHER...I'M NOT CRAZY...I SAW HIM!"Alexis quickly turned around, curious about what Pedro had said, but again and again, Martin tapped him on the shoulder, forcing him to move away."Go back to your detention room. You'll be in big trouble if you're still standing here. Hurry up!" Martin pushed Alexis in the other direction, and then gave Alexis the code with his hand to do as he was told.

    Before getting the treatment to embarrass him again, Alexis puts up a fight.Alexis grabs the man in front of his tighter, twists and slams him to the floor. Alexis does it with just one stroke, without requiring much energy.Previously, the boisterous voices chiming in to condescend to Alexis were now hushed with stunned looks."Alexis!" he said calmly, looking down at the man he had knocked out.Alexis ignored when the man on the floor raised his hand to ask for help standing up, but proceeded to introduce each prisoner in line, who then followed like a line of snakes.The next destination was the outside of the prison building which overlooked a forest, and in fact, as far as the eye could see, tall, dense trees. Alexis looked up, toward the guard posts filled with police and snipers. They stood at each post, at the top of each tower-like structure.Not only that, there were CCTV cameras everywhere. Almost every corner looked, not spared from the surveillance cameras for 24 hours.

    Alexis sighed first, of course this next fight could not rely on dodging like the previous one.Alexis' hands were raised in preparation for a defense, as well as the start of a counter attack.Two men came forward at once, looking for Alexis' weaknesses in the face and abdomen, so Alexis simultaneously caught their fists, twisted them and slammed them to the ground."Next!" challenged Alexis next, staring back and forth as he spun around to the next three challengers."Come forward together!" Alexis challenged, this time pulling his left leg back, his hands back up. Alexis wanted to get this game over with, to avoid being taken for granted for too long.The three men approached Alexis, throwing punches. From all three directions, except the left side.Alexis took advantage of this by shifting his body position to the left, then quickly placed both hands on the arms of the two men on the right and left, pushed and crashed into them simultaneously, then pushed forward, crashing into an

    "Martin. Of course he is. Who else here is more respected than him. If you ask about Jareth...trust me. He's all about his big body and his big mouth.""Clean up the grass and dirt around the area, then you get breakfast!" ordered the warden who had been leading this morning's exercise.Alexis and Eddy's conversation finally came to a halt, although Alexis was still eager to get more information out of him.Eddy, himself, walked away from Alexis and joined the crowd of Jareth's group. Alexis took a quick look at him. He thought he couldn't fully appreciate Eddy the mechanic, because after all, he was a member of Jareth's gang, despite still being nice to him.Alexis turned and looked up at the air vent in the detention room he assumed was where Pedro was. His eagle eyes scanned each side of the building where the window was located.It would not be difficult for Alexis to get Pedro out of there. Since a few years ago, young Alexis had been trained in various skills and abilities to de

    I Need You, Pedro

    Too long for Alexis to wait to be questioned, as soon as the policemen followed him, he went forward and pulled both of them quickly to avoid CCTV surveillance, and then knocked them to the floor together.Unlike what he had done before, this time the policemen still tried to get up and fight back.They were on all fours, trying to get back to their feet albeit with slightly blurred vision, but still trying to fight Alexis.But their efforts were no trouble for Alexis, who delivered a punch to the cheek, then spun around to deliver a kick to the other side, sending both of them crashing to the floor again."Damn it!" cursed Alexis as they both tried to pull out guns, which of course were pointed at him at the same time. Alexis tucked his body between the cleaning tools, and then stepped to the back of the wheeled area where the cleaning tools were stored.Two gunshots from the two policemen were unavoidable, and that meant more consequences for Alexis. The sound of sirens soon echoed,

    Trust Me!

    As usual, Alexis did not respond. His gaze was focused on what they were facing at the moment. Ahead, two policemen entered from a side door. Alexis came out from behind a pillar, and then grabbed both men from behind. Alexis smashed their heads together until they collapsed, then gave Pedro a coded wave to follow him. Once Pedro was close behind him, Alexis opted to find a way out via a fire escape that was rarely used.After reaching the first floor, Alexis held Pedro back to stop first."I need to call someone. You sit down," Alexis ordered and took Pedro by the shoulders to help him sit down. Pedro's labored breathing also made Alexis feel compassionate.Alexis activated the special prisoner bracelet to contact Andre. Having been in the room most of the day, the battery was not completely full, so Alexis tried to speak quickly and effectively."Zero. Report." Andre's voice was on the other end of the call, but was interrupted several times by the lack of signal."Pedro is with m

    Vain

    "My hands are itchy."Alexis' thoughtless reply. He scratched a few times where the prisoner's bracelet was."Are you allergic to sanitizer or something?" asked the medic who turned to look at his with compassion. "Hum...this, is it?" Alexis followed the medic's gaze to the bottle of cleaning fluid he had placed next to the vacuum cleaner."If you have an irritation problem, I can give you some painkillers." "No. I don't think I need it."Alexis' words fell on deaf ears as he was distracted by the moaning of the person in the next room, which Alexis assumed was Pedro."Wait here," the prison medic pleaded with Alexis. But Alexis was going to find out. He pulled the vacuum cleaner a few steps away from its original position, eavesdropping on any conversation that might be going on inside between Pedro and the medic."Calm down!" the medic snapped until he could be heard outside."I don't want to drink it. Why are you always forcing me!" Pedro was clearly rebelling, refusing to comply

    Man With The Hat

    "What do you mean, Martin?"Who wouldn't be surprised, when something related to humanity, turned out to be a terrible thing, even though this was a place where criminals were."I've been close to Pedro since he was brought in here. From the beginning, I've come to the conclusion that he's not actually mentally ill. I don't know what you'd call it, but according to my observations, he's still sane," Martin explained."So you're saying that the therapy for Pedro is an attempt to make him crazy and keep him that way?" Alexis concluded."Yes.""Was it purely on the orders of the warden of this prison or were there outsiders who had power or interests over Pedro?""It seems that Pedro is a key witness to a case.""Did Pedro ever tell you about the case? I noticed that you seem to be close to him."Martin looked right and left, before continuing to answer Alexis."Why are you so scared like that? Are you afraid of who might overhear our conversation?" probed Alexis, suspecting that Martin

    They Wanted To Kill Him

    Alexis' gaze was like that of a hunting dog. Thirsty for a catch, with all his might.Alexis crept along, alternating between the pain in his arms and legs from the residual heat of the newly extinguished fire.Alexis quickly squeezed under the door leaf, right under the muzzle of the rifle Penn was pointing out.Alexis was already certain that Penn was in a weakened state, where he had been wounded, although he had no idea of the type and location of the wound.Alexis tried to grab the door handle, but let go again, just to estimate how hot it would be when he opened it.Alexis then made a warning sign with both hands to the prison guards in front of him."Stay low, until I can get the gun," Alexis said quietly, pointing the muzzle of the gun Penn was holding inside with his index finger.After getting a nod in return, Alexis quickly turned around, pulled the muzzle of the long rifle fast and hard, got it under control, and then threw it forward until it made a loud thumping sound.A

    I'am Crazy

    Alexis quickly rolled to the side. Although he hit his head on the edge of the door leaf, he tried to stay strong enough to stay conscious.The red flash of lightning was followed by gunfire, just as he dodged. From the slowness of the shot's arrival compared to his evasion, Alexis could tell there were two possibilities, either the shooter was an amateur or he was wounded.Alexis tried to take advantage of everyone's poor visibility due to the smoke and the few remaining fires by quickly moving forward, back into the main area of the prison.The only misery slhe had to deal with now was the burning in the soles of his feet. Alexis had to balance his right and left feet so as not to simultaneously feel the heat coming from the floor.Alexis' shoes were so disfigured and unfit for use that he had to walk on tiptoe, all the while keeping his sharp eagle-like eyes as natural binoculars."Come on, we'll have to use the prisoners' belongings to put out the fire." Said the commander of the

    Become A Shooting Target

    What Alexis had sensed when he stepped inside, where there was a thick and slightly sticky liquid on his shoes with every step, turned out to be the liquid Penn used to set the fire.Alexis' expression tightened when, behind them, a prison guard screamed loudly as a fire suddenly ignited next to him. Alexis guessed that a spark had been ignited near the man, creating a new blaze."Damn it!" Alexis cursed for the umpteenth time. He took off both his shoes and Pedro's. The main door was engulfed in flames. There was no other way but to avoid the fire, before controlling it."Wait here!" Alexis ordered Pedro. The focus of the rescue was now not only on himself and Pedro, but also as much as possible on the people who were there.Alexis thrust his right arm, still wrapped in the wet cloth, forward as a shield again, to protect his face from the smoke and heat.Alexis then directed the wet cloth to serve as a shield for his hand, which was trying to reach the metal doorknob."Damn it!" he

    Fire!

    Alexis leaned forward. The light from the sun's rays through the air vents biased his face. Alexis' tall, well-built frame made his the new center of attention, as did Penn, who immediately started staring at him."Who are you?" he asked out loud. He had a surprised look on his face. Alexis was certainly not one of the prison guards.Alexis didn't answer, he stepped forward, taking advantage of Penn's momentary lapse by holding Penn's right hand tightly with his left crossed.Penn, who was caught off guard, reflexively brought his foot forward to kick Alexis' leg.But Alexis was faster. His left hand snatched the flaming paper Penn was carrying, dropped it to the floor and stomped on it to extinguish the flame.Alexis did so with quick movements, and before Penn could make his next move, Alexis had already immobilized him by twisting Penn's arm and then dropping his body to the floor with his hand.But as it turned out, the end of Penn's fight was not quite here, as he suddenly pulle

    Ready To Action

    Bang!"Damn it!" cursed Alexis, as a bullet whizzed by his left leg. Alexis suspected that the sniper had no intention of hurting him, but was merely calling his bluff.Precisely because of this, Alexis moved even faster, bursting into the main kitchen, against the direction of several people who wanted to get out to save themselves, but one Alexis was determined to get inside.Alexis grabbed a cloth on the kitchen table, wet it from the tap water, and wrapped part of it around his right arm to use as a shield.Before entering the prison building, Alexis had been given the floor plan and the names of each room, so he had no trouble finding his way to the stairs leading to the second floor.In this area, the smoke was still thick. Alexis couldn't understand how a man named Penn could burn room after room to the ground like this."Where is that suck a hero?" a voice asked faintly in the distance. Alexis indicated that there were police not far from where he was standing.Alexis quickene
