“He did it all of a sudden. Is there any security camera footage there?” Derric asked as he brushed his philtrum.
“There was never a CCTV camera on Jen Marrie Street. Pablo didn’t allow it because he didn’t want to take the risk that the police would check his place one day.” Juan answered.
“Was he joking? Didn’t he pay the police a lot?” Derric shook his head in disbelief.
“He’s that careful, indeed,” RD replied, considering that he had always been dealing with Dragger’s subordinates, he was quite familiar with the mindset of the leader of such a large group.
“So it’s certain that Black did it? Turns out they dared to nudge us in the end,” Derric said.
“Rather than that, I’m more concerned about the reason they did that. Didn’t we ever bother Black?” Juan asked.
“Let alone bothering them. I’ve never seen them in person. But they were the ones who helped RJC beat the Creepers.” RD shrugged his shoulders.
“Could it be because Dragger nudged RJC?” Derric guessed.
“No way. Black eventually helped Jita Kyoei to defeat RJC, making them close the Underground Cave.” Juan replied.
.....
“Dammit! Seriously, what kind of group is Black? What do they want?” Derric growled.
“To be sure, they have the same mission as Calvin Lee,” Juan answered.
“Calvin Lee? The sewer rat that often bothers people’s business?”
Juan nodded. “It’s clear that they want to destroy all the gangsters in Handway City. They are people who act like heroes.”
“To be sure, Black is holding two of my assets right now. They stole them and I have to get them back. They f*cking insulted me by doing that,” Derric said.

Dream Moves was a ballet dance course located on Ater Street which was on the western and southern border of Handway City. Even though it was still a new business, it only took a month for the place to have a large number of students.
Every day, many girls were seen in and out of the pretty-classic-styled building.
However, that was what people see from outside the ballet studio. The fact was, they didn’t know what was really going on in there.
“One! Two! One! Two!” Rachel exclaimed, pacing back and forth with a slender wooden stick in her hand. In front of her were about fifteen girls who were doing muscle training.
Dream Moves ballet studio was not just a place to learn ballet, but on the third and fourth floors were the headquarters for a group called The Black Swan.
The Black Swan was a group of about sixty girls. They were Handway City’s girls who had the same mission: Become strong and eradicate crimes. They were led by a powerful girl named Emma Hilland.
While Poppy and two other instructors were teaching ballet on the first and second floors, directly above them, the girls were being forged by Rachel and Emma to become warriors who were not only strong, but intelligent.
The third floor, which was the headquarters for the girls to gather, had turned into a girl’s dream house. It was a second house of The Black Swan’s girls. Therefore, almost every member contributed a variety of pretty furniture and knick-knacks to fill the very spacious room.
When night came and the ballet studio was closed. The girls would use their time to practice martial arts using all the practice rooms on every floor.
Emma did not expect that the girls had such great enthusiasm. Even though she had to teach many people at once, Emma never felt tired because the enthusiasm of the girls seemed to be her fuel.
“War is at hand,” Kathy said with both eyes, staring at the computer screen through the glasses perched on the bridge of her slender nose.
With her abilities, Kathy managed to hack a short message application belonging to a member of the Beast Empire named Rude Boy (RD). Incidentally, he was the only man who Kathy found had a social media account. It seemed that the members of the Beast Empire did have closed private lives.
From there, Kathy continued to monitor the activity on RD’s short message. She found several numbers that discussed the search for two girls who were kidnapped by the Black group.
“They started looking for Britney and Ava. From now on, it’s best if the two of them stay here and don’t hang around just yet.” Emma said. She was standing next to Kathy’s chair while staring at the same computer screen.
“What are they planning next, Kathy?” Linda asked.
Kathy shrugged. “As it should be: Watching those girls’ house,”
“We’ve stolen what they think is theirs. That means we’re declaring war,” Rachel said.
“Is this funny? We are the ones declaring war but we are the ones hiding.” Emma chuckled.
Kathy smiled amusedly. “Fortunately, we didn’t care about that stupid ‘Group Self-Esteem’ term. Who cares what they will say,” She shrugged as she grabbed a cup of cold yoghurt from the table and scoops it into her mouth.
“Anyways, Rachel. Are all the masks ready?” Emma asked the long-legged girl who was sitting cross-legged on the turquoise sofa near the large window.
“Otsuka said; next week everything could be done,” Rachel answered.
“Um, Emma..” Poppy called the group leader.
“Yes?” Emma turned around.
“Our expenses are huge, Emma. I’m not sure you can cover all of this with your personal money.” Poppy said while looking at her laptop screen.
After the Black Swan became a large group, Poppy suggesting to be a manager for the group. She was in charge of all financial and member management. It happened that Poppy was a meticulous, neat and organized person.
“The more people, the more needs. Of course, we need money,” Linda said as she sat beside Rachel.
“We can’t always rely on your money, Emma. I can even guess how much money you’ve spent on this group. Even though you’re the leader, that doesn’t mean you have to pay for everything.” Rachel said.
“We have to do something if we want this group to continue to grow. Well.. Looks like what Marcel said was true. Everything costs money,” Kathy let out a long sigh before taking a spoonful of her yoghurt.
The computer she was using now even had just been bought using her and Emma’s money. Of course it was too expensive for Emma to pay just with her money.
“I have an idea,” Poppy said suddenly, attracting attention from other friends. She smiled broadly. “How about we make a Y**tube channel?”
“Y**tube channel?” Emma repeated with both eyebrows rose.
“Well.. It’s a pretty good idea, actually. Y**tube can indeed make a lot of money if your channel has a lot of subscribers.” Kathy said enthusiastically. “Should I create a game channel? It’s a good idea, isn’t it?”
“It can be done, Kathy. I was thinking about starting a ballet channel.” Poppy said.
“Because you said that, I got inspired to create a cooking channel,” Emma said thoughtfully. Then she took a deep breath with enthusiasm. “Then, we’d better make it soon!”
It seemed that The Black Swan quickly found a way out of their new problem. The girls took advantage of their ability to make money using the internet. It was not just the core team, but the members also racked their brains to be able to raise money.
The Black Swan was a group filled with pretty girls. Those who were into the world of entertainment take the initiative to do live streaming on several applications.
Despite being a fugitive, The Black Swan didn’t seem to care about what was happening out there. They found out that the gangsters were looking for them. However, what they cared about was continuing to hone themselves to become stronger before actually jumping into the battlefield.
Meanwhile, Dragger and Beast Empire continued to do their business without knowing that there were two groups of heroes were preparing for their group’s collapse. They were Black Swan and Jita Kyoei.
**
Managing her new group took much of Emma’s time. She had a lot of activities. Lecture, study, practice self-defence and teach self-defence. Those all made Emma forget that she actually had a love story.
A message that entered Emma’s cellphone when she was on her way from home to Poppy’s studio location seemed to make her heart beat again.
‘Hey. Long time no see. Have you forgotten me?’ – Levi.
The short message from the person who had caused Emma’s feelings to fall apart made her sigh heavily. She pulled the car over to reply to the message.
‘Hey. Seems like I’ve actually kind of forgotten you. Maybe it’s because we both have nothing to talk about?’ – Emma
‘Did something happen?’ – Levi.
Emma pursed her lips, and then took a deep breath before her fingers danced on the phone screen.
‘There isn’t anything. I’m just telling the truth. We really only meet when there’s a problem, aren’t we? Don’t we have any reason to meet other than trouble? (LOL emote)’ -Emma.
Emma was still staring at her phone screen, waiting for the reply from the grey-eyed man. However, after two minutes of waiting, no more replies came.
Emma shook her head slowly as she put her hands on the gears and steering wheel to get back on the road. However, before her foot hit the gas pedal, her cell phone made a sound again. The difference was; it was an incoming call ringtone.
Emma stared at the phone screen. It had the name Levi Wargos on it. The girl let out a long sigh before picking up the call.
