"Yes… I won the Olympiad and the Hendricksons have organized it so they asked me to take the Prize from them Personally as they wanted to congratulate me personally," I said, "That's why they called me here and that's why I was feeling hesitant to tell you." 

"Allen, do you take me for a fool…?" mother's voice felt different.

Why, what's the matter with her? 

Wasn't that convincing enough? 

"Mom, what happened…?" I asked. 

"?" Lily was also pretty confused but I didn't take her reaction as the real reaction as she has already fooled me once. 

"You kept this a secret from me and now after winning this you still tried to hide it from me…? Do you take me for a fool or did you expect me to not be pleased by your accomplishment?" mother said. 

Ah, so that's how it is. 

"'Oh, I just didn't know how to tell you this so I had difficulty telling you," I said, "I am sorry." 

"I guess it's my fault for not raising you properly," mother said in a low voice. 

"Pft…" 

What's that? I think I heard something from the other side, and the other side is where Lily is sitting. 

Also, I was feeling it was weird but mother has been covering her face since the beginning. I thought she was just feeling down but that doesn't seem to be the case. 

"Mom, look at me," I said. 

"Why?" Mother asked me, "Is there something on your face?" 

"Mom," I raised my voice a bit. 

"Pft…!" 

"Hahahaha…" 

Both the ladies burst out laughing. 

"..." I stared at both of them, eyes filled with a suspicion. 

"Oh…! Lily it's really true," mother said as she tried controlling her laugh, "Allen really isn't much different even when outside." 

What are they talking about? 

Also Lily, what's going on here? You have bonded with my mother to this level that you are playing pranks on me. What's your real intention? 

Getting close to me is one thing but that changes the whole thing if you try to get close to my family. 

Here, I am trying to keep trouble away as much as possible, and she is getting close to her. Does she not know her brother's work? 

His brother is working in a field that isn't considered safe so I specially told him to come and pick me up from school and not home. 

What if someone knows about that and to lure me in they might target my family. That's the sole thing that I wish not to happen. 

"S-See… I told you…" Lily said as she was also in the similar situation as my mother. 

"Care to tell me what's going on here…?" I asked. 

"... Nothing much," mother said, "It's something that is related to you but it's not something that we can tell you…" 

"Alright then," I said, "Let's go." 

"Okay," she said as she dragged her chair behind and stood up on the spot, "See you later Lily." 

"Yes…!" she was brimming with excitement. 

"Mother leave first I have a few words to say to Lily," I said. 

"But don't take too long," she said with a smile on her face.

See, that's the smile that I wish to protect. 

*Step*

*Step*

*Step*

Soon mother disappeared behind those flower bed. 

"What is it Allen…?" Lily asked me. 

"What is it? What are you trying to do here…?" I asked her. 

"What do you mean?" She seemed confused. 

"You are trying to get close to my mother but I want to know why," I said. 

"What…?"

"If you have any ulterior motive then stop," I said, "And if not then just ignore it." 

"I didn't mean anything, I was just trying to get along with her," she said. 

"That's why I said," I said, "If that was not your motive then just ignore it, I might have read the room wrongly."

"..." she fell silent. 

"You know my situation right?" I continued, "I have difficulty trusting someone, that's why I am having difficulty trusting you. I don't want you to understand it completely but try thinking about it from my point of view."

"... I understand that," she said in a low voice. 

"If you get it," I said, "I guess I should leave now otherwise my mother might cause a tantrum." 

"Yeah you should," she said. 



I left her behind and reached out to where mother was. 

I reached the entrance and saw multiple men wearing black suits but I also noticed that one of them was a woman. 

She wasn't there the last time. 

But if she is with them all then there's nothing to worry about. 

*Step* 

Mother was standing still near the gate so I approached her, slowly walking. But something felt odd. 

What is it? 

I waved to acknowledge that I was coming to her but she didn't wave back. 

What is it? 

Now that I was only about 10 feet away I noticed her eyes are almost closed and she wasn't just standing still but rather she was leaning onto the entrance gate while someone's hand was around her shoulders. 

Wait, what? 

*Stop* 

I stopped but I guess I was too late. 

*Bam* 

I was right at the back of my head. I couldn't even protect myself since I was ambushed and whoever was that, he was too fast for me to react on time. 

Soon I lost strength and my vision was getting blurry. 

I still tried to hold my ground and turned around and just flung my arm 360 degrees but that was futile. 

"Too late boy," he said.

He was wearing the exact same dress as the rest of them, and my vision was getting blacker as time passed by and with nothing to do I fell on the ground and with the last ounce of strength left I spoke. 

"Mother…" 

This shouldn't have happened. Never. 

The only thing that I feared is coming true right in front of me and I can't do anything about it. 

Why is this happening? Isn't Harry's house supposed to be safe? 

Did he betray me? 

But does it matter now? The only thing I could do is just to wait for the revelation. 



*Flash* 

As I started to feel my fingers I felt a bright light flashing against my eyes but it wasn't directly, my whole face was covered with some kind of bag. 

I tried to move my legs but they were too numb while my hands tied up behind me and it felt like I was partially tied around a chair. 

I am getting deja vu. 

But how come I was kidnapped this soon? Also why? 

*Throw* 

What the hell was that? 

My whole body froze up for a second, the lingering things that I was able to feel are again numb. 

"What's going on…?" I asked as I was trembling. 

"Oh… so you woke up…?" It wasn't a human voice, rather it was more like a mechanic's voice. 

Are they trying to hide their real voice? If so, then they must be someone I know. It's possible since I could recognize them so it's good to assume that the person is someone I know. 

And it's most likely they are a different group of people since that MR. X didn't use something like this. But again there is a possibility he is using it now. 

"..." 

"Are you cold…?" the person asked me. 

"You think?" 

"So you aren't even scared," the person said, "You really are a piece of work."

"What do you want? What happened to my mother?" I asked. 

*Punch* 

I don't know if it was him or someone else but I was punched in my gut pretty hard. And with this cool, it felt even more harder. 

"You can't ask questions. That was your warning," the person stated. 

"..." I stayed silent. 

"That's right just do as I say," the person ordered, "Tell me what is your relation with the HYDRAs?" 

"..." I stayed silent. 

*Punch* 

"This was your second warning," the person said, "Answer it." 

"I don't have any relation with the HYDRAs," I said. 

Also, after feeling those two punches my body was slightly getting warmer around the abdomen region. 

"Really? Then why are you being targeted by them? If you haven't done anything wrong or don't have any relation to them then why are they after you? I think it's very suspicious," the person said as the voice felt closer.

"I don't know why they are after me…" I said as I tried to suppress my scream. 

Those punches are really starting to take effect now. 

"Really? Are you really telling the truth?" that person said. 

*Click* 

I heard something click. What was that? 

*Shoot* 

All the pain till now was nothing compared to it, something was shot at it. 

Was it a gunshot? 

I can't possibly know since the pain was so immense that I couldn't make the difference now. 

But this is weird, my sense of pain seemed to be heightened. 

Have I been drugged? I have read a few papers on my father's work desk. 



(Time when Allen was at Home with his Father) 

"Allen, can you get me some of the papers on my desk? They are in the red folder," Father called out to me as he was sitting on the couch whereas I was lazing around the house. 

Going from one spot to another so when father called out to me I was given something to do. 

So, I took this opportunity to get out of my lazy period. 

*Step*

"Wait a minute," I said. 

*Step*

*Step*

*Click* 

I opened the door, it was dark as usual and the only source of light was that lamp that I have seen ever since I have been here. 

"Why don't he just use a brighter lamp," I mumbled to myself. 

"Hmm…?" While I was looking for a red folder I noticed another file just behind it but the only difference wasn't just the color but it was kind of sealed.
