The next day, Ali's day goes as usual. Wake up in the morning, see that his father has gone to work, get ready to go to school, the session of getting beaten before going to class, get yelled by Madam Munah, rest has get beaten again, get glared by Alicia, return home, go to the academy.

At the academy, Rudy is glaring daggers at him. The other agents didn't pay attention to him. And Ali spent most of his time in his room at the academy.

He is deleting all the hate messages on his phone sent by.....everyone.

Suddenly, he got a message.

From: Elemental_Boi

Hi Ali! Sorry if I didn't text you earlier! I just done with my missions and I accidentally left my phone at the bade. Hehehe... Sorry! I forgot to give you the holo-communicator. We could video chat if you had that thing! Hehe.. Sorry!

Btw, I'm going back to Earth soon! I can't wait to see you! I want to see if you're a little taller. Hehehe... The others can't wait to meet you for the first time too!

Alrighty,Commander has been giving me side eyes now. Hehe, because when  I'm typing this, I'm smiling like an idiot. I can't wait to see you later! Take care, Ali! Bye!

(P/S: I brought Cattus this time so he can play with Comot! OwO)

Ali smiled. Yes, that's his only friend now.

The only reason why he is still around.

Then,his phone rang, indicating a mission. He put on IRIS and went straight to the main hangar.

***********

So, the mission is to obtain confidential information in a secret underground base. The syndicate conducts illegal arms trading activities.

This mission involves Ali, Alicia, Bakar and Rudy. While the others distract the guards, Ali will enter and hack the computer system to get the intel.

"Can't you do the job a little faster? There are more guards incoming!" Rudy yelled through the communication device. Ali rolled his eyes before taking the intel after it was downloaded.

But as soon as he stepped out, an emergency siren sounded.

"Ali! What happened!" asked Bakar.

"The security system is beeping! Wargh!! There are more  people are coming!" said Ali before running away and meeting the others.

"Ish! Can't you do anything right?!" Alicia took the intel from Ali and they all ran away.

"Catch them!"

"Don't! This building is about to explode! Just let them explode inside!"

Ali heard everything and tried to warn the others but then there was an explosion.

Due to the explosion, the ceiling above collapsed, causing Ali to be separated from his group.

"Damn! You guys! I'm stuck! Hello!?" the line went static but he could still hear what the others were saying.

"Where's Ali?" -Bakar-

"Maybe he was over there when the ceiling fell!"

"Turn back! We have to save him! -Bakar-

"He has IRIS! He's big enough to get out by his own! Our mission is to get that intel!"-Rudy-

"But...."-Bakar-Alicia-

"We have to implement the GEGAS Protocol."

Ali could feel his whole body getting cold.

They wants to leave me?...

There was no reply from Alicia and Bakar. But he knew that the three of them had left.

Leave him to die here.

'Argh! I can't give up! I'll see him later! I can't let him wait for me!'

Ali continues to look for a way out. The base is collapsing more and more and if he doesn't get out now say goodbye happy place.

Ali saw an air passage and without wasting time he starts to crawl up. Little by little the air chimney collapsed.

"Just a bit more!"

Ali managed to jump out as soon as the last explosion was activated, causing him to be thrown far and crash into a large tree that was around the forest.

"A-Argh....It hurts..."Ali held his head. The gloves he was wearing were dripping with thick red blood.

"I-It's fine...if I take a break for a while.....Huh..."

After that, everything was dark.

°************°

When Ali opened his eyes, he was still in the same position as when he passed out. The difference is, now it's bright.

'There is no one looking for me?'

Ali slowly move from his place. And pry his way to find a way out from the forest.

'No one looking for me?

'Did they think that I'm... dead?'

'They can still find me through IRIS right?'

He was thinking about many things. He was trying to think positively but...

How can he be positive, if they were positively wants him dead?

°************°

Ali doesn't know how long it tooks, but he managed to arrive at the academy. No one saw him enter because there was no one around.

'Are they training?'

Ali went into his room to take off his dirty mission suit. He took the spare hoodie he had in the closet and went out.

"Where are they?" said Ali alone. His head still hurts. Fortunately, there is no concussion. He decided to use IRIS to find where all the agents are.

'The main hangar? Why?'

Ali decided to go to the main hangar door. But, he couldn't get it open so he went into the air ventilation. There is a barrier there, but he could still see and hear all the agents nearby.

"Is it true that Ali died in the mission!?" -Moon-

"Heh, of course. The place got blown up badly. He won't be able to get out!" -Rudy-

"Humm.. I don't think he will come out either. Even if he do have IRIS to help him find a way out, just you look at how he is! Weak!"-Jet-

"Do you think I can use his Techno room to put my other weapons?" -Roza-

"Nah,you can't! He's remodeled his room! You can't enter without IRIS."-Khai-

"Unfortunately, the IRIS is also gone. If Ali is not here then, I want to try to use it!"-Mika-

Zass didn't say anything but he nodded when everyone spoke.

"At least....if he is not there, new agent can try to replicate IRIS if it is still there." -Iman-

"The important thing is that now he is gone! How MATA will do to tell his father?" -Alicia-

"Meh, his father won't even notice it that he was gone. Less burden for him I guess. Just like us. No more Mr.Mission Spoiler" -Rudy-

Every word they said is like daggers stabbing into Ali's heart which is already hurting.

'They doesn't care...'

'They really want me to die...'

Out of anger, Ali kick the barrier, surprising all the agents.

"What's that sound?!"

"An intruder?!"

Ali quickly left the place and took all his things in the room, before running out of the academy.

'They were right.'

'I shouldn't be here, I don't even deserve it!'

'I have to...go far...'

'Dad won't have to worry about me...'

'He doesn't even know I already..'

"After all, I'm dead"

'No one would ever find me....ever again..'

'Never.'
