New Life Online 285 Saving His Parents

What is going on? I woke up after that girl in the mask killed me. I still can't believe she stopped those people with Legendary and World Boss monster souls... I stood up and opened my door.

I can hear heavy footsteps and I can tell that everyone is busy. My dad told me that they will come as fast as they can and I can tell that everyone is really doing their best to locate the place.

I went to where people are going and it's like a wide room full of computers and a big monitor which shows a large scale map of some sort. I saw familiar faces like Aurora, Two Teeth, Petula and... is that Zeth?

"Miss Azzie, we finally found the location." It was Glace. It looks like after she died, she went here as fast as she can.

"I'm on it. We'll go there as fast as we can. This is the most important mission we have and everyone we have should do their best to complete this search and rescue operation. The life of both Mr. and Mrs. Kim are of utmost importance." Azzie explained.

"Let's go, Team!" She ordered and the others moved along with her.

"Wait, what am I supposed to do?!" I asked, I want to help and I can't just sit around here doing nothing.

"Get out of our way kiddo. We'll handle this." Zeth said.

"But..." Before I could say anything else.

"No buts. We can't screw around and we need to focus. We can't let someone like you dragging us down. Let's go." Azzie ordered and they walked away. What the h.e.l.l?!

"She's right. We need to stay and hope that everything will be ok." Petula said. Right, Azzie told me before that Chara has some kind of part of this idea father told them. Petula's here to protect her sister with all she's got.

"I understand. It's just that, everything goes so fast that I don't know what to think anymore. It's like events happen from left to right that I'm confused about what to do or what to believe in." I replied.

"I'm sure everything will be alright. They have us on their backs. The enemies hid very well because they know that when we come, they can't stop us. We got the best agents for this kind of missions. Just trust us." Glace explained. I hope that's ok... but somehow... I need to do something.

I decided to stay but I know that I somehow need to go too... It's like, I needed to be there.

"Where are you going?!" Petula asked. I decided to go out and follow them.

"Just going out to clear my mind," I replied while sighing to show that I need some air.

"Ok, just don't go out too far. We need you safe." She replied.

"I'll be alright."

Everyone is so busy and they mostly gathered all their force for the rescue. No one is here but doctors and IT while they're monitoring what's happening to help the Team.

I went out and it looks like they just moved out and somehow I found a small car. Nothing fancy, just a regular one. I haven't driven anything yet so riding a car is a bad idea but that's my only option.

I entered the car and a screen popped out... what the h.e.l.l is this?!

"This is a transport vehicle. Please select a destination and we'll drop the packages at the location." I don't know what this is for but it looks like this thing uses some kind of auto path feature.

"Follow those cars and keep your distance. I have a package to deliver." I replied. I hope the AI works this way.

"Auto-follow feature activated. Please fasten your seatbelt and we'll be there shortly." It looks like it also has auto-follow. Jeez, what happened to the world's technology when I was out.

(Glace's POV)

I hope they will be ok. Sitter is a good agent but he lacks focus. I hope he doesn't die in this mission.

"Miss Glace. One of our transport vehicles is moving. It looks like someone is using it." One of the ITs reported.

"Wait, really? Let me check who's using it." I replied and so I tried to access the vehicle.

A screen popped out showing... wait, Scy?!

"Scy? What is wrong with you? Why are you following them?" I asked.

He looked at me at first but he smashed the camera and the call got disconnected. This is bad... I can't let them know that we let him go... They need to focus on their mission. I'm going to stop him.

(Scy's POV)

Holy c.r.a.p, she surprised me. Woah Woah Woah??

"Why are you stopping? Are you ok?" The AI stopped the car and it looks like the system of this car shut down... d.a.m.n it.

I guess I'll have to drive it manually. I pressed the b.u.t.ton to start the car once again and the engine started working. It looks like this car doesn't need a key at all.

*ENGINE STARTING*

The car started moving after I stepped on the gas. Simple as that. I almost lost them but thankfully the way is straight and I still can see them even after being too far.

***

The drive didn't last long. It looks like they stopped in some kind of abandoned building covered in tall gra.s.ses around it. We've been driving for like an hour and I can tell that they've been hiding quite near our hideout.

They went inside the abandoned building so I stopped as well and waited for them to enter. I heard a faint sound on the road and as I looked at it, I saw a car moving towards where I stopped. I swiftly hid behind the tall gra.s.s.

A girl went out, looking really worried.

"Where the h.e.l.l is that guy? d.a.m.n it." It was Glace and she was looking everywhere to find me but I was already out of her sight. She really wants to stop me. Why doesn't she just say that I was following the others, though?

*BEEPING SOUNDS*

She's using a mobile phone of some sort and she was waving it towards the area. After she looked at it, she suddenly looked at my direction. Oh, sh*t, that's a tracker. I need to go to the building as fast as I can before she can find me!

I moved and ran towards the entrance but she's already behind me. d.a.m.n, she's fast! Before I could enter the building, she grabbed my hand and stopped me.

"Don't make stupid things. We need to get out of here before something happens to us too. Let's go back ." She said really worried.

"I need to go and help. I need to see my parents. Please. Don't stop me." I eagerly said.

"No, don't wait for me to knock you down..."

*GUNSHOTS*

She was surprised and that caught both of us off guard, letting her grip loosen up a bit and I took advantage of that and rushed towards the entrance.

I ran as fast as I could. I see dead bodies all over the place and I heard more gunshots but it became less and less. I heard screams, shouts, and cries but that didn't stop me from running.

After a while, I saw Azzie and the others trying to push their way through.

*GUNSHOT*

What?! Before I could know it, I lost my balance and fell to the ground! What happened? I felt burning sensation on my right arm and as I looked at it, I've... I've been shot! Sh*t, I've been shot!

I looked around and out of nowhere, it's the same feeling I've felt in my dream where I lost my arm trying to hold Akko's arm... out of fear of being shot again, I tried crawling slowly... I tried standing up but I was too scared... I don't know why I'm being this scared as if I'm scared of dying and losing someone...

"I told you I'd kill you the next time we meet, right?" Who...

"You?! Who are you and why are you doing this??" It was the girl in the mask and even in real life, she's still wearing it. She's slowly walking towards my location...

"Your right arm, it brings back memories. Doesn't it?" She asked... what? how did she know about my dream?

"I... I don't know..." I can't think of anything to say... I'm going to die here.

*GUNSHOTS*

Someone tried to shot her! I looked and it was Glace but she missed!

The girl in the mask slowly got back and pointed the gun at me! She's really going to kill me! I closed my eye and accepted my fate.

*GUNSHOT*

I heard a sound of dropping and hitting the floor and as looked what happened... Glace?! Glace is in front of me and got shot in the chest!

"This is all your fault." The girl in the mask run away after seeing that the others showed up to help us...

Glace...

is she going to be alright?
