Loki walks back and port trying to calm himself, after Asia left he immediately followed her out but he saw no sign of his wife at all, every street near, every corner. His jew clench and palm sweats in fear and anger agad siyang lumingon kay Atlas na natutulog, she's also worried about her mother kaya't nag sinungaling siya na may pinuntahan lang it even though he himself is not sure where Asia is.

"Did you have any news?" Mabilis niyang wika ng makitang pumasok si Pietro sa loob ng silid.

He sighed and shook his head. Lahat yata ng connection at kakilala niya ay nilapitan na niya but there is no sign of Asia.

"I don't have any sources other than a CCTV near that Cafe."

Loki gulped inaya niya itong lumabas ng silid upang doon tignan ang CCTV. His hand sweats as he wait for the CCTV to play, madilim at medyo hindi maganda ang CCTV na nakuha nila but this is the only clue they have so far.

"There, she is walking down the Street in hurry."

Loki nodded and waited, halos masira niya ang laptop sa galit ng makita ang isang itim na Van na huminto sa harap ni Asia then two man from the man stepped out and took her in force.

"Damn it!"

Napasabunot na lang siya sa sariling buhok sinisisi ang sarili sa nangyari, Loki wipe his face with his own hand in frustration.

"What are we gonna do?"

Hindi siya makasagot dahil maski siya ay hindi alam ang sasabihin at gagawin, Asia's life is at risk because of his selfishness kung hindi sana sila lumabas ng sila lang dalawa ay hindi ito mang yayari.

"Who the hell is it this time? Leonardo? That damn organization?! Who?!"

"Don't you think it's time for Agustos to know about this?"

Agustos needs to know that of course, he don't know about that underground organization aside from him. Tatayo na sana siya upang tawagin ito when Agustos barge in there furiously.

"You put her life in danger again!"

Napahiga na lang siya sa sahig sa lakas ng suntok nito sa kanyang mukha.

"I swear to God Loki, if something happens to her I will kill you with my own hand."

"Where is she?"

Agustos chuckled mockingly. Hindi pa siya tapos sa problema niya sa Italy ng tumawag sa kanya ang isang head ng organization sa kanya threatening him that they have Asia and they want an exchange battle and something Loki have for her life.

"Did you know what did you do? You just put her life at risk even more, Yes I'm in a damn Mafia but either me can do anything about that organization. They want life in exchange of her life, they want something from you as well, something Lucille hidden from everyone something that the will be the downfall of the organization."

"W-what?"

Napahawak siya sa pumipintig na ulo dahil sa sinabi nito, he hold his founding head so hard trying to think of what is it.

"Loki they didn't kill you that night because of that, only you could point what that is."

With that word Agustos left leaving Loki. Halos mapiga na niya ang ulo niya sa kakaisip sa bagay na iyon. What exactly they want from him? Ni wala namang nabanggit ang ina niya na bagay bagay sa kanya, how could he knew what they want?

"My Lord are you okay?"

But Loki didn't answered, nakayuko ito hawak ang sariling ulo habang nakapikit ang nga he seems to be in somewhat pain.

"I-I need to leave, take care of Atlas for me."

Hindi na napigilan ni Pietro di Loki na umalis, he immediately went to his car and drove away back to where it all started back to his old mansion.

ASIA holds her chest so tight upon leaving the cafe having that conversation with Loki bring backs everything to her as if it all happened yesterday, hindi na niya namalayan ang pag patak ng luha habang tumatakbo palayo her vision is blurry with tears. Her heart is pounding so fast. she's hurt, betrayed and a broken soul isa lang siyang simpleng tao noon if she could only turn back the time she would just to have that normal life again na ang problemang iniisip lang niya ay makapag bayad ng bill sa tubig at meralco.

"You are not the same Asia anymore." Mariin niyang wika at pinahid ang mga luha. "Diba sabi mo hindi kana iiyak?"

But here she is crying her heart out, a chuckled escape from her lips remembering what Loki said earlier, mahal siya nito? Mag tatalon siguro siya sa tuwa at galak kung sinabi ito ni Loki noon. Ang tanging dahilan na lang niya ngayon para mag patuloy ay si Atlas at wala ng iba pa. Atlas is her everything now eto na lang ang iniisip niya, hindi siya puwedeng maging mahina.

Mabilis na inangat ni Asia ang ulo ng may isang itim na van ang huminto sa kanyang harapan, it was too late to run because the van immediately opened and two men pull her inside.

"Sino kayo?! Let me go!" Wika niya at sinuntok ang isang lalaki na naka mask sa ilong, she was about to reach the exit when one of the man covered her mouth making her feel dizzy.

"W-what did you—"

"Let's go." Huling tinig na kanyang narinig bago tuluyang pumikit ang kanyang mga mata.

ASIA doesn't have any idea on how many hours did she fell asleep, her eyes slowly opened. Agad siyang napahawak sa kumirot na ulo, sa sobrang sakit ng ulo niya ay nais niyang mag suka ngunit pinigilan niya ang sarili. Her eyes wondered around the room or should she say a dungeon it was a dusty looking prison cell with a stinky smell surrounding her. Her heart beats erratically fast as her eyes roam around, it was dark tye only light that she can see is a torch hanging on the wall.

"N-nasaan ako? Tulong! Pakawalan niyo ako dito!"

Kahit na anong sigaw niya ay walang dumarating, all the answer she could get is the echo of her voice.

"Walang makakarinig sayo dito." Wika ng isang babae na nasa kabilang selda.

"S-sino ka?"

The woman chuckled then she sighed tumingin ito sa kisame na tila nangangarap na muling makita ang langit sa labas.

"Matagal na ako dito, napagod na lang akong humingi ng tulong kaya huwag mo nang sayangin ang laway mo."

Tila nawalan si Asia ng pag asa dahan dahan siyang naupo at tumingin sa kawalan.

"Bakit tayo nandito?"

The woman smile, bakit nga ba? She doesn't know.

"Nag mahal ako kaya narito ako."

"A-anong ibig mong sabihin?"

Asia is confused to her answer, hindi niya alam kung paniniwalaan niya ito o hindi.

"Wala, ang tagal din bago ako nag karoon muli ng kasama dito. Ikaw? Bakit ka nadala dito?"

Asia sighed, how she wish she could answer her questions but she couldn't dahil maski siya ay hindi din alam ang sagot.

"Hindi ko alam..." She said in disbelief. "I-ilang araw kana rito?"

Malakas na tumawa ang ginang na tila nasisiraan ng bait sa kanyang tanong.

"Araw? Taon na akong nakakulong dito. Isa, dalawa? Hindi ko na alam. Hindi ko na mabilang, nang magising ako narito na ako."

Mas lalong pinang hinaan ng loob si Asia sa sinabi nito, would she end up like her? Paano si Atlas? Paano ang anak niya? With that she stood up and tried to break the metal lock on the door..

"Hindi ako puwedeng makulong dito!" Mariin niyang wika. "No! I-I can't stay here any longer—Aww!"

Asia burst into tears while looking at her bleeding hands, dahil sa pag pilit na masira ang lock ay nasugat ang kanyang mga kamay.

"Kagaya nga ng sabi ko, huwag mo nang sayangin ang lakas mo."

"I won't just sit here waiting for my time! May anak ako, kailangan ako ng anak ko!"

"Sa tingin mo ba ako walang pamilya? May anak din ako! Pero heto, ilang taon na ako dito at walang magawa! Kung hindi ka makikinig sa'kin bahala ka, but trust me you should stopped nag sasayang ka lang ng lakas."

Wala siyang nagawa kung hindi ang maupo ulit at doon umiyak nananalangin na sana ay makalabas siya doon ng buhay para makita muli ang anak.

----

Nakatayo si Loki sa tapat ng malaking Mansion na iniwan sa kanya ng magulang, he promised himself not to go back here after what happened to Pietro but if this is the only way to save his wife he will go back here just to get Asia back. Malakas niyang tinulak ang pinto at pumasok sa loob, ang dating maganda at maayos na mansion na tinirhan niya ng mahabang panahon ngayon ay sira at wala na sa ayos.

Mabilis niyang tinakbo ang kuwarto ng namayapang ina upang doon unang mag hanap, halos baligtarin na niya ang silid upang makita ang tinago daw ng ina na siya lang ang makakahanap. But what? Where? Saan siya mag sisimula!

"Damn it! Damn it!" Sigaw niya at binato ang lahat ng gamit sa sahig. "Where is it?! Where the fuck is it?!"

Loki sat on the bed in frustration, kahit na anong hanap niya ay wala siyang makita his eyes darted to Lucille's huge picture on the wall. His teeth greeted while looking at it, she has this innocent smile but he better knew what that woman is capable with.

"Patay kana pero hindi mo parin ako pinatatahimik, how could you do this to your own son? How could you do this to your own damn family?!"

Bit the picture won't answer, the smile on Lucille's face makes him mad than he ever is. So he took a piece of broken glass and wreck Lucille's picture, wala siyang pakiaalam sa kamay na dumudugo habang mahigpit na nakahawak sa basag na salamin.

"Loki! Loki!"

Mabilis na umalis si Loki sa silid ng ina at bumaba kung saan na kita niya si Yvo na humahangos, he gasped when he saw Yvo holding his bleeding shoulder.

"What happened? What are you doing here?"

Mahigpit na humawak si Yvo sa kanyang balikat at tumingin sa kanyang mga mata.

"I-Im sorry..."

"Sorry for what?"

Loki's eyes were trace to him not moving.

"Yvo! What the hell are you saying?!"

"T-they took her, they took Atlas."

Halos gumuho ang mundo niya sa sinabi nito, ang kanyang mga tuhod ay nanginginig at dahan dahang bumagsak sa sahig.

"I'm sorry... I-I couldn't save her."

Hindi na niya namalayan ang pag patak ng luha mula sa kanyang mga mata, una si Asia and now? Atlas is gone too.

"We have to go, Atlas needs you."

Ngunit tila bingi siya sa mga sinasabi nito dahil wala na siyang maintindihan pa, why is this happening to him? Bakit sa kanya pa?

"Loki damn it! We have to go!"

Ngunit wala siyang maintindihan, all he could hear is an endless echoes in his ears not until Yvo punch his face.

"Atlas needs you damn it!" Malakas na sigaw nito. "If you won't move your self then Pietro's death would be useless!"

"W-what?"

Yvo's eyes watered in anger and pain while looking at him. Kita sa mata nito ang galit at hinanakit dahil sa nangyari.

"He... He is dead, I-I tried to— I-I tried to save him but it was too late! Damn it I was late again! Wala akong kuwenta! I couldn't save a friend for the second time! I'm fucking useless!"

Tila pinipiga ang puso ni Loki sa sinabi nito, Pietro? His gone?

'I will stay by your side no matter what happened even if it means death.' Pietro's voice echoed to his mind as tears started flowing down his eyes.

"H-he tried to save Atlas for the last time, but he ended up getting killed."

Malakas na sinuntok ni Loki ang sahig ng paulit ulit sa halo halong emosyon na nararamdaman, galit, sakit hinanakit at pag durusa.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

"Stop!" Malakas na sigaw ni Yvo. "It's no use Loki, Pietro is gone! Asia is missing and Atlas has been abducted! Walang magagawa yang pag suntok mo sa sahig, it won't bring Pietro back it won't help us to find Asia and it won't help you to save Atlas! Save your strength, hindi na biro ang mga taong kalaban natin they are monster."

Loki's fist is bleeding, gusto man niyang pigilin ang pag iyak ngunit hindi niya iyon mapigil Yvo is right. It won't help him at all, all he need to do is focus so Pietro's death won't be a waste.
