《Luna》The Rebellious Spook, volume demised
Advertisement
Kevi opens her eyes. That man, with familiar grey hair and beard, gives her a warm wink from his silver pupils covered by a protective goggle. For the first time of the night, Kevi feels herself safe and relief eventually now.
"Nemo......"
A drop of tears flows along her face, Kevi wipes her eyes with sleeve.
"Ahh---it's still hurt." she whispers
Nemo looks back around, makes a gesture to other SWAT members.
"Give me some time here, "he takes off the protective goggle and hands to Kevi, "Here, you might want to use it. You guys," he says to them, "block all the entrance and exit, including elevator and the stairway. Do not engage until I arrive."
Wait for the rest of team leave the place, Nemo turns to Kevi again.
"Must be a really hard night for you, Luna."
"One of the craziest, I guess," Kevi takes the goggle and grins, "I thought you have some confidence in me."
"Before the other gunshot takes place, I do. I didn't expect that you two would have a skirmish before our arrival, which is the worst thing I could now imagine. You should've left her alone."
"Agree......now I've learnt that," Kevi sighs, "How do you know that she would she would show up here?"
"There's always darkness exist under a lighthouse," Nemo lifts her up in a tender move, "Also, she probably in urgent need of some first-aid."
They walk toward the exit door. Kevi lays her head on his shoulder, feeling his bread stings her face.
"They'll bring you to my office tonight," Nemo slightly clears his throat, "Have a good rest there. I think tomorrow a VIP is going to visit you."
"Whatever you ask," Kevi says, holds his arm tighter, "But you......are not staying with me, right?"
"If things go well, only for tonight. I need to deal with it on my own."
"But I can't trust them."
"Well," Now they reach the door gate, Nemo says, "I guess Auga would stay there. You two haven't seen each other for long, do you?"
Auga......
Kevi looks at Nemo wide-eyed.
"What the heck......" she taps her pocket, "Where's my cellphone? Shit, I forget......"

"What?"
Before Nemo realizes, Kevi turns back and runs to the storage. Her cellphone lies under a desk with vibrating.
"Auga?" she shouts at the opposite side, "Auga?"
"Where are you, Luna?" Auga's voice is unclear, seems like strong wind is blowing over herside, "Dear god! I keep calling you......"
"I'm fine, totally! Are you still on the way here?"
"On the helicopter, about landing right now! Don't worry Luna, just stay where you are and-----"
"Go back! Back!" Kevi yells almost hysterically, "That attacker is inside the building!"
"What?" On the 10th floor of landing zone, Auga takes one step out the helicopter, "You saw her?"
Soon she watches a woman in shadow shoulders the gate open and totters out.
"Help, help......" she puffs hardly, with one hand covering belly, "They're chasing me......"
"Stop by there!" two agents with Auga raise the pistol, "Kneel down the ground! Now!"
"Please, I was set up......" the woman can't help kneeling as they ordered, still press on her wound.
"Put your hands up! Both hands!" agents step closer, "Up in the air!"
"Save me, please......I'm wounded......"
"I said put your hands up!"
One agent reaches out his hand, tries to lock her hands up. But the woman catches his arm and grabs the weapon. In a flash of time, she shields her body with that agent. The other agent fires front, but all bullets hit his partner. Then he himself is shot thrice: one right eye, one throat, one chest.
Witness two of her colleages die in a second, Auga shocks to blanch, leans beside the helicopter, drop the cellphone without notice. She opens the helicopter gate and ready to leave-----
"One more step and I'll kill you," the woman supports her body up, staggers closer to Auga, "I've seen your face before, Miss. You were with him......"
Meanwhile, at surgery floor. Kevi rushes to the stairway as she hear the gunshot.
"Auga is in danger!" she pulls Nemo's coat, "On the landing floor! That attacker is with her right now, I should've known it!"
"Calm down, Luna!" Nemo says in serious, "Forget what I told you right before? You leave here, and stay in my office tonight."

"I can't leave her like that! Shit, let go of me!"
To her surprise, Nemo blocks the stairway in front of her without any explanation.
"You are not capable yet." he turns to a SWAT police, "Take care of her and leave. Remember, keep it low."
"No! Nemo! You can't-----"
Kevi burst out fierce cursing, but as her arms locked by the SWAT police, she can't move even a finger.
That attacker, has a special bond with Nemo......
In a good way, or bad way?
I would say......both.
Suddenly, a terrified thought comes into her mind. She tries to suppress the idea, but that possible result keeps haunting her: whatever that bond is, Nemo cares the attacker more than Auga.
I cannot let Auga be the deal! Never gonna happen!
Catches a blink of chance, Kevi grabs the pistol from the holster, pushes the SWAT police to an empty room. When he realizes what's going on, Kevi carries a long chair and sticks it against the door handle thus it cannot be opened from inside.
"Nemo......what the hell are you planning for?"
Kevi flashes into the stairway and moves her every muscle stepping up.
"Don't hurt me, please......" pleads Auga in fear, "Helen, I know you didn't do that......"
"No, you have no idea what's happened to me, because you are a ignorant crew member to them," says Helen in low voice, "The only reason you live, is your connection with Nemo. Call him! Maybe I'll let you go if luckily, he responds! Do it as I say!"
"OK, OK......" Auga seems lost her idea entirely, only mechanically obeying Helen's order, "I'm calling him......"
Three short ticking sound, then the music of Bach's G String Aria flows from distance. Helen turns her head, abruptly to the source.
"No need phone call," Nemo stands by the gate, holding the cellphone up, and click the "ring off" button, "Helen......it's me."
He walks to Helen. Helen still holds the pistol, but takes a little step back.
"You trust me, don't you?" her hand with the pistol is trembling, "Nemo, I......I've never......"
Nemo shakes his head, which indicates her to stop.
"Cameras here?" he says.
Helen blinks in suspicion, but soon realizes his meaning. She raises her hand with pistol, target at all three cameras around the landing zone and blind them.
"Nice shot," Nemo looks around the broken machine, "You are as good as usual, Helen. How could you ever possibly miss any target like they said?"
Helen drops the weapon, almost runs to Nemo's embrace.
"I'm sorry, Nemo......" she sobers with tears wetting his chest, "All these things, all these days......"
Nemo taps her head, puts his fingers insie her hair.
"As long as I am here, I won't let them hurt you," he whispers, "Now you must leave. Remember the safehouse of U.S.S.A here?"
"Yes."
"I can't bring you out like a swagger. Hide yourself there, I will block anyone else to enter. It may take times, but I promise you, I will find out the one behind all these incidents, and I'll prove your innocence."
"As long as you need, Nemo! I wish you weren't involved in my trouble!"
"That's the least thing I'd consider," Nemo turns his head back, "Go, they are chasing upstairs."
Just as his voice ends, Kevi breaks the gate out behind them.
"Auga!" she shouts in breathless, "Auga!"
"Be quick," Nemo releases Helen's hand, faces against Kevi, "I'll deal with her. Go."
"What?"
Watches Helen grabs Auga's arm and enters the helicopter, Kevi feels her blood is rising up to his brain, and get choked halfway in the neck.
"YOU BASTARD!"
She runs in big stride toward the helicopter, pushes Nemo aside with all her rage. She aims at the cockpit, but dares not to shoot, as Auga sits with Helen and her eyesight still blurs with the effect of alcohol.
"What did you do!"
Witness the helicopter disappears in the dark night, Kevi kneel on the landing zone, as if she lost her support.
What did you do......
