I opened the folded paper and I was confused and scared at the same time. All I could see was several numbers, and letters, and "Yuraki" on it.

Kennedy just tilted her head down.

Okay, Lemme tell how the letter like.

_________________________________________

I think. . . Erin could solve this mastermind thinking.

Letters, Numbers etc. What is it?!

Okay, chill Triss. Chill.

I held Kennedy's hand.

"Where did you get this letter?" I asked. "It's from  Yuraki, right?"

"Y-Yes." She replied with a stutter. "S-Sorry I d-din't tell you e-earlier."

"It's okay. Next time, just tell me." I corrected.

"O-Okay."

∆∆∆

After scolding and correcting Kennedy about the letter, I asked what's that about. She told me it's a riddle we need to figure out. Cause that's a warning sign.

So, maybe, the "smarty" can solve it no?

I walked towards Erin, and handed her the letter.

"What's this?"
"Riddle. Solve it."

Erin scanned the letter. Her expression turned firm, her eyes didn't blink;intent.

"Is this suppose to be a word?"

"I think so."

"A B C D. . ." I hear Erin mumble. "E F G. . "

"Uh, Erin, why are you doing your ABC?" Alex asked confusingly.

Meg just chuckled a little.

"Solving."

"I think I know it." She said.

"What is it?" I said, interested and surprised.

"S-O-O-N
I-W-I-L-L
G-E-T
K-E-N-N-E-D-Y
A-N-D

W-I-L-L
S-L-A-U-G-H-T-E-R
Y-O-U
A-L-L
T-O
P-I-E-C-E-S."Erin finally said.

Chills came up to my spine.

" Eh. ." I said, drinking my tea.

"Alert, that guy is here again."

Meg's Point of View.

I saw Yuraki.

I could see. .  . . he was holding that circle-shaped thing again. Except, it was blinking, blue and orange .

"Hello, Kennedy, come to your brother."

"You are not my brother!" She argued back. "You killed him!"

Brother? . .

It's my first time not seeing Kennedy stutter..

"Come to me or else. . . " Yuraki said while he walks towards Triss, holding that control device.

Triss just raised up her shield and protect herself.

"Triss, why are you scared of this little thing? And Kennedy, come to me."

"I will not let Kennedy come to you!" Triss shouted.

I raised up my sniper and aimed for him.

"Shut up, will you?"

He just grinned.

"Kennedy, someone else is gonna die because of you."

He removed the sniper from him, and ended up putting the control device to Triss.

. . . .

"Triss, attack with your shield." He commanded.

She just followed, and attacked me with her shield.

Ouch.

I kept missing my shots to Triss, No, I mean, change the "missing my shots" word. I did aimed it for her, but she blocked it.

That's what you gotta expect from a tank, right?

Erin released her drone and started attacking with her gun.

Alex, in the mean time, attacked Yuraki with her hammer.

I think this is gonna hurt soon.  . . .

Not.

∆∆∆

After minutes of attacking Triss of what we have, we just couldn't graze her. Just a little tho.

As expected from the leader of the Furies.

Yuraki injured us too. Just by using his, uh, Kennedy? He's using Kennedy. Like a puppet.

When she was about to attack me, I heard her say something.

"I'm sorry. . "

Ouch, she bang her hammer at me.

I feel dizzy.

OR NO.

Thanks, Erin, especially Triss, for your loyalness.

"Okay, Triss, attack them now."

But she won't. She just ended up shouting and attacking Yuraki.

"HOW?! YOU ARE STILL WEARING THAT DEVICE!"

Triss winked. "Erin switched it. That's all. And how? That's her secret, since she's an engineer."

Erin smiles. "Haha!"

"Dang that engineer. . . . " He said while he get a sword beside him.

"You'll pay for this!" He said while running to us.

When he was screaming and running towards us with rage, his movement stopped.

And that's when it exploded.

When he was distracted, I put a trap, an exploding one. It's a big one.

Whatever, Triss can protect us anyways.

I removed my heart-shaped lollipop out of my mouth.

"That's why you shouldn't mess with us, Yuraki." I said.

"Say my name again, and I-" As he  paused.

Kennedy put her gun at his forehead, with her fierce eyes looking at him.

"I'm not weak anymore."

Triss' Point of View.

Master plan was a success ~!

God, I'm so surprised that Kennedy didn't stutter. And, her voice was like so firm, and scary, cruud.

"Good work everyone!" I said happily. "You all can take a rest!"

"YES!!"

Meg and Kennedy was quiet.

"Ladies, are you okay?" I asked, concerned. "You tired?"

"Yes, I'm tired. Lub-dub."

Gosh.

"I'm not. . . " Kennedy said.

"Why? I was so proud of you!"
"No objections, okay?"
I agree with a nod.

"I'm not a engineer, sniper, or fighter.

" What are you then?"

"A tank, cause I acknowledged your strength. . "

I laughed. "Aw, your sweet!"

She just hugged me.

"Thank You!"
