"If you follow me I will spare your life but if you don't follow me you got the same fate as your father" Cobra aimed his rifle at Romeo.

"5...4...3...2..."

"Sure, I will follow you. I've nowhere to go to after this"

"Wow, splendid! I got many things to do to you"

Romeo and Cobra left the room without a trace and left the port. Second mission accompolished. Now moving to the second phase, The Dragneel.

Macbeth went to his house late at that night. He always came home late but not this late, it was already 1:00 a.m He parked his car inside the garage of his house. As soon as that, he went inside ohis house. He didn't open the light as it will disturb the ones who he deared the most in the house. He went into the kitchen and open the refrigerator and grabbed a carton of milk. He grabbed a glass in the sink and poured the liquid into the glass. He drank the milk. Then, he put the glass on the table and stared at both of his hands. He went to the drawer and opened it. Inside the drawer tastored a gun suited with a silencer. He just stared at the gun but as he tried to grab it...

"Dear, you just went home? You need something to eat. I could make some" His wife asked while leaning on the wall as he stared at Macbeth. Hearing his wife's voice, Macbeth closed the drawer and went to his wife. He held his wife's hand and shook his head.

"You don't have to make anything for me. I'm not hungry. I just want..." Macbeth stood arrive behind his wife and hugged her waist. He put his head on his wife's shoulder and sniffed her. The odor of his wife always gave him the relaxation that he wanted. He didn't need anything as long as he had this. His family, his wife, his son and daughter, and a precious person who is in the carriage of his wife.

Cobra arrived at Magnolia with Romeo on 6:00 p.m. As soon as they arrived, they went to the nearest hotel that they could find.

As soon as they arrived to their room, Cobra took the chance to take a quick bath and went to sleep. He told to Romeo to not go anywhere. Just stay inside the room and practically do nothing.

Romeo just sighed in disappointment. He just looked at Cobra who was in dreamland right about now. And he didn't know what to do. He thought for a moment. Why he took the decision to follow him? And why he didn't take the chance to die and meet his father? What still he want to do in life after his father's death. What could he do? He practically going to die anytime soon. He sighed again, this time even heavier. He looked at Cobra, what you want with me?

Cobra just went to dreamland. But this time not back to incident that killed the Reptile family but this time he is in a house. As he recall, this is not his house. He looked to his surrounding, the wall was coloured black, the ceiling is white and he wore nothing but his pants. And even his pants had shred everywhere. He was clueless, and only one question that he got in mind, where is he?

Suddenly a light entered his eyes. He followed the light. He saw himself who was being scolded by someone. But how come he can looked at himself if he himself is the person he looking.

He looked at the one who scolded him. Father? His father is scolding him in front of a barn. What's happening right now. His father is wearing a singlet and a pair of pants. Beside a wooden house. What?

The man slapped Cobra. As if they are sharing the same pain, the boy and Cobra also feel the same pain. The boy fell on the ground. His body was covered with dirt. What on earth is happening? The man asked the boy again. But Cobra didn't quite understand what the man was trying to say. The boy just shook his head. But that reaction just made the boy got a kick from his father on the stomach. The man just leave him and entered the wooden house and shut the door.

After the scene over, Cobra came to get closer to the boy but he can't touch him nor that the boy see him. But still the boy's face reminded him of himself. The face, the hair, the canine teeth. But how on Earth, is he doing here and even if this is real? Why don't he remember a thing? What is going on?

Cobra woke up from his dream. Sweat running down his face. His chest went upwards and downwards indicating that he is breathing heavily. What kind of dream is that? Suddenly he got that weird dream playing through his mind. Cobra wiped his face with a hand towel.

He looked through the room. He was searching for a boy. He looked everywhere and Romeo is nowhere to be found. He jumped off from his bed. He looked through the room. Suddenly he caught a bowl of warm water was placed on a small table beside his bed. And the hand towel that he used to wipe his face was wet. A question mark appeared on top of his head. He looked inside the bathroom and saw Romeo came out with a new hand towel.

"Where have you been?" Cobra asked the boy seriously.

"Well, you got some sweat on your face when you were sleeping and you said some words like 'I don't know?' and 'Don't hurt me'. And then I came closer and touched your forehead. Your temperature is rising. I lowered down the air conditioner temperature and search some towel to..."

"So I get it. You don't have to do that to me. I'm fine on my own"

"But, Sir..."

"Don't need to take concern about me! Fine?"

"Fine but one last thing, someone call you"

"Huh?"

"Yeah, a man just call you! He said 'Keyword;Dragneel and 0915'. I don't understand much what he said. Maybe it is a code for something. Oh and he sent a text message using the same number 'RFL; Y or N?' and just pressed Y"

"What did you just did? So who is this man? Did he addressed himself?"

Romeo shook his head and Cobra sighed a relief. Cobra took out his suitcase and opened it. All the weapons inside was refilled perfectly.

"Tonight I'm going to gain some information on the Dragneel so you better stay here and go nowhere, just stay here"

"Could I come?"

"Are you bluffing? You could get yourself killed?"

"I played with the weapons for a while, I could get use to it!"

"Again, huh?"

"Well when you were busy sleeping I took a look at the suitcase and looked through all the weapons and examined each one. But the Hawk Mk3 is my favourite. It is light and could shoot through 2 yards in an incredible speed. Perfect, accurate and consistent"

"How do you know to open my suitcase. It is locked?"

"Well, not to brag but I'm a talented hacker"

"You hacked through my system and you hacked through the SpA phone, that's why you can reply the text message and called through my phone"

"Exactly correct"

Cobra just stared on the floor, he crept closer to Romeo. Romeo went to the back, probably afraid of Cobra. Each steps Cobra went close to him, he went to the back until he leaned on the wall. Two hands crept closer to him and pinched the cheeks of Romeo.

"Heh? What you're doing?"

"I never met someone special like you. We make a great team you know?"

The police of Shellby Land quarantined the place where Wakaba died. From what the forensics examined, the victim was killed because of a bullet that went through his head and instantly died after that. He was killed inside his own room before he will be getting the achievement to become the mayor of this land. None of his fortune was stolen but his son, Romeo was kidnapped - probably will be a hostage. That's what the chief said.

All of the visitors of the party was put on hold for further information and assistance on the case. Right now, all of them are suspects.

The Butler came in and met the chief.

"Sir, I don't know what to say but Sir isn't this incident that burdened my Lord have anything to do with Wakaba from the Mine Company because they die the exact way. A bullet that run through the head"

"Hmm?" Chief Racer agreed. And smiled while looking at the newspaper.
