The Spock relayed the message but deep down a blanket of sadness was spread over him. He tried to show that he was all cheery and enthusiastic while relaying the message but he was continually cursing his fate, for no matter what options he tried, that group of three was able to still achieve the unbelievable. They were like the Invincibles.

A deferred version of the game and event status was being updated on the GCG web-page for people all over the world to have a glimpse of and all the team members of Delphie were glued to their screens in the war room.

Every time the opponent made a snatch, the mood of the entire team would dip to negative and the moment Delphie members made a snatch, they would swell with pride and joy. The entire team was hooked, with no one having any care about water or food.

The fourth snatch was like a life saver which happened quickly and made the entire team exalt with happiness as if they had already won the battle.

The moment Akira saw the update on the screen, she ran back to her seat leaving the war room. Bryan looked at her in surprise as to why would she leave at such a crucial point of time when it was the time for the last snatch.

But she didn't bother to reply to the eyes of people filled with questions and just rushed out.

Upon reaching near her seat, she knelt on the floor and started praying for him. She wanted all her God's to listen to her prayers. She wanted to conjure all the good wishes that she could from the almighty for his sake. She needed him to win it, but more than that she just wanted him to come back all unharmed.

Sitting there on her knees, right now her biggest concern was his safety. Somehow it was difficult for her to digest that Vikram would let him off the hook so easy. She had a gut feeling that he would still try to do something to harm him.

She could not share her fears with anyone but God and so she surrendered herself completely. She had faith in God and in her prayers. She knew that he wouldn't disappoint her.

She had no idea what and how, but a couple of minutes later she could hear loud cheers coming out from the direction of the war room. And she knew that God had listened to her prayers.

Tears of joy started rolling down her eyes and all that she could do was to count her blessings and be grateful for everything in life that she had.

Before she could get up, Kirk came running to Akira's desk and hugged her.

"They have done it Akira !!!"

She was surprised. She never knew Kirk to be an emotional hugger, but today he was. But she didn't mind. She hugged him back and said,

"We have all done it, Kirk. We have all, together".

The whole floor went into celebration mode and David started ordering food and drinks for the entire team. It was time to party.

A smile spread on her face seeing all the happy faces, but now she felt like making a particular face sad.

"WE WON" - [Akira]

She wrote and then she immediately sent the text to Vikram.

He read the text like it was a summon from the hell. His face turned all contorted as if he had been under exorcism. He threw away the phone on to the floor trying to vent out his frustration. Right now he didn't care, who won or who lost. He just needed one thing and for that, he had to wait.

He waited for his plan B to work patiently in his cabin.

The Spocks who had been sent by Richard reached near the waterfall area almost at the same time when the final snatch happened.

After Spock3 relayed the victory information, one of the Spocks went inside the waters to help Raymond come outside as he was waist deep in water and was holding his laptop in his hand as well.

"You can give me your laptop and walk ahead", the Spock said and extended his hand to hold the laptop.

Raymond readily gave the laptop to him and said,

"Thanks for the help. Although it wasn't needed here",

Saying that he took a step forward, but his leg tumbled against the leg of the Spock who was also standing in the water next to him and he lost his balance.

The stones underneath the water were all covered with moss since ages and were slippery as hell.

He slipped and before the Spock could hold his hand and restore his balance, he fell.

It was more than a hundred feet dead-drop.
