A/N: This chapter is short. Anyway, please read and review.

Chapter 8: XIII Data

Annette's POV

"Tonight I'll stay at Fay's apartment." Eve's voice was heard from my cell-phone.

"Ok. Make sure that you've locked all the doors and windows before you go. Check the stove too," I uttered.

"Yes."

"Sven asked me to take care of you. So call me if you need anything."

"Okay. Thank you, Annette. Bye."

"Bye."

After closing my café, I checked my email with my laptop, chatting with others informants about latest sweeper targets. Usually, I would give this information to Sven at the weekend.

"We're closed," I said, seeing a group of people entered my café. I knew one of them. He was Eve's senior in Avedici, Troy Wolff. "Eve's not here, Troy."

"I'm here not for meeting her, but you."

I stared at him suspiciously. "What do you want?"

"As I know, you're a great informant. Now give me Black Cat's data."

"I don't know."

He chuckled. "I've anticipated this."

He gave signal to his people, asking them to surround me.

"What is this, Troy?" I questioned coldly, feeling edgy.

He glanced at his people. "Guys, silence her. I don't need her anymore."

They attacked me, having no mercy to hit a woman. I felt my body hurt, having no extra energy to attack or defend. Before I lost my consciousness, I saw their little master looked at me with disgust.

"Thanks, Annette," he said to me before going out from my café, carrying my laptop and cell-phone.

Troy POV

I sat on the passenger seat, letting one of my people drove my car.

"What's the destination, Sir?" asked the driver.

"Eve Volfied's house."

He nodded.

While my car was reaching her house, I opened Annette's laptop. Her laptop was still turned on and unlocked. So I didn't need any password or other hard efforts to open and check the data.

I was interested with her desktop. It was a picture of Eve, her father, Annette, a biker guy that I met yesterday, and purple haired woman with sexy dress, sitting in the café. Just one clear sentence that I could comment from the picture: What a complicated group!

Finally, I found the list of sweeper names alphabetically.

I chose the letter 'B', searching name of 'Black Cat'.

I frowned. There was no name of it. I guessed Annette put his real name instead of the alias. But I didn't know his real name. Should I check them one by one? But this list contained hundreds of names. Damn it!

I saw the name of Eve's father in the list. I opened the document. Sven's picture appeared together with his identity.

Sven Volfied

Born date: June 23

Age: 33

Blood type: A (A/N: I saw these from manga. I made his age 3 years older after Eden)

Other details explained about his address, contact number, email address, and his former job as an ex-IBI agent.

I felt my curiosity kicked in when seeing the name of Train Heartnet as his partner. From the last meeting with that biker, I remembered he said something about Sven's partner. Hm, I wanted to know about him.

I clicked his name, and then the annoying biker's face appeared in the screen, together with his identity. Truly, I wanted to close this page, feeling that it was useless to check his. I read it lazily.

Train Heartnet

Born date: April 13

Age: 26

Blood type: O (A/N: I saw these from manga too. I made his age 3 years older after Eden)

Other details explained about his address, contact number, email address, and Sven as his partner. Not important things, like himself.

Suddenly my eyes widened when I read the red font color of his aliases: Black Cat, the Deliverer of Bad Luck, and Number XIII from Chronos.

I couldn't believe what I had just read. I was shocked with mouth agape.

Train Heartnet is Black Cat?!
