Chapter 63 Blue Fire Gang

After few moments, the door opened and revealed... the two!? Claire is in her usual composition but Zoey is smiling widely. "That was awesome!" She cheered sitting on her couch.

"What happened?" Cassy asked while I'm still processing everything...

"Nothing," Zoey answered smiling.

"Are they dead?" She asked again... probably Cassy. We might have been thinking the same. But again they ignored her.

"What should we do with them?" Zoey asked Claire.

"Burn them. Leave nothing." Claire answered.

Suddenly, I felt fear, fear more than before... she's not the Claire I know, she's too cold. She's... ruthless.

"Of course!" Zoey answered smiling widely.

They seem so ruthless... I know whose 'them' they mean. Those 12 people who just came inside minutes ago... that they killed... It's so hard to believe but it's what I know...

"Who are you two?" I didn't realize I said it out loud.

Zoey looked at me grinning, when she motioned to talk, my phone started ringing. My heartbeat is pounding so fast as I answered it.

"Dren, how are you!? How are the others!?" Adrian asked before I started talking.

"We're fine. Definitely fine. How about you?" I heard him take a deep breath calming himself, it seems like he was holding it before, I also heard the others did the same.

"Never go out and remember to lock the doors. Okay? Tell the others." He lectured.

"Yes sir." Well, the enemies were already dead. "But, how are you?" I asked worriedly.

I sensed the girls' curiosity too. Except for Zoey who doesn't care, as usual.

"We're fine, the mission was already finished. But, did Xenon got there?" I got curious and I can sense Claire made a sudden movement, sensing that something is wrong. I suddenly felt nervous.

"He's not here yet. Did you separated!?" I asked in concern.

"Damn it!" I heard Lucas cursed.

"They lured us! They're into Xenon!" Coby exclaimed. My nervousness got higher.

When I looked again at Claire. She's not here!! "Oh my gosh!" I exclaimed.

"Why!? What happened!?" I did not realize Adrian is still on the line.

"Claire disappeared..." I stated.

"Damn it!" "Oh shi*!" "Fuc*!" They cursed in chorus.

Venice Claire's POV

The moment I sensed something's off. I did not think twice but jump from the window and run towards the wall of the campus but on my way, I sensed some people from the distance.

From days of watching Mr. Baron's men, I already know each of them but this time. It's not his men. They're someone else...

So I immediately hide before they sense me. "Are you sure he has a girlfriend?" A man with red hair asked his friends. They are still young seem to be in their 20s too.

"Yeah, the boss said and he saw them with his own eyes." The man beside him wearing a headband answered they are walking towards the mansion of the Insigma Fighters and I counted 4 of them.

Suddenly, even on this darkest night, I saw a glimpse of Tarre's tattoo on the back of the hand of one of them. They are a gang working from us!

"We must get the girl for boss." Stated by the guy with a headband.

"Tch. What do you think he'll do with Xenon?" The guy with an eyeglass asked with... worry?

"Probably kill him!" The man with an ash hair color exclaimed smiling widely.

They are holding a gun meaning they're here for a fight or a mission. That is to get a girl, I'm not assuming but maybe it was me... Earlier I was outside with Xenon and one of the people we sensed earlier must be their boss...

So I got out. "Are you looking for someone?" I asked.

"Ow, what do we have here. A pretty girl at night?" The ash-haired guy laughed.

"Careful dude. This school is full of the best fighters. We don't know anyone..." the guy with an eyeglass said staring at me.

I tried hiding my smirk. Well, this guy with an eyeglass is not bad to be part of Tarre. They are walking closer to me...

"Tch. I don't care. We are members of Tarre, what are you afraid of?" The guy with a headband answered. Tch.

What a lousy man we have here.

"I'm sorry for my friends' behaviors. I just wanted to ask, do you know someone named Claire Tan?" The red-haired guy asked politely.

I sensed the ash-haired man at my back, they are slowly circling at me...

"Yes," I answered.

"Can you tell us where we can find her?" The guy with an eyeglass asked.

"I'm Claire Tan." I stated not even hesitating.

Suddenly, a handkerchief blocked my nose. I did not smell it but I pretended to collapse. One thing I know, they will bring me to him...

********

"Do you think we're doing it right?" I remember that voice coming from the guy with eyeglasses. He's at my right. We are in a car and I'm in the middle of two guys right at the backseat.

"It is the order of our leader or we'll face consequences if we'll not follow him." This guy in my left I recognized as the red-haired guy.

"Whoooo! This is life!!!" I recognized this voice from the ash-haired guy.

"We can have what we want as a member of a Tarre." The guy with a headband smirked.

"She's pretty! Haha after the boss uses her. I can have a taste of her." The ash-haired guy laughed.

"Watch your mouth, Grey. We didn't become part of a Tarre to do such thing." The guy with an eyeglass argued.

The guy with a headband laughed "Don't be naive Blue. All Tarre is brutal and we're part of it. They are the strongest Mafias and we can shout to everyone that we are members of Tarre Mafia."

Tch. I might not hold myself any longer if I'll continue listening to them.

They're just a bunch of idiots. Tarre Mafia might be brutal but killing someone innocent and using Tarre's name in vain are also commitments in Tarre Family that one should never do. Unless those innocents are part of the mission, but they were never killed...

Anyone who disobeyed those rules will face consequences...

When the car stopped, I opened my eyes. "Oh good, you're awake!" The guy with a headband exclaimed.

"Well baby, we'll have much fun tonight." The grey guy smirked looking at me with lust.

I ignored them. Eager to see Xenon...

If something happened to him, is the end of this gang.

"Which gang do you belong to?" I asked lowly to these two guys beside me named blue and the other one is the red-haired guy.

They seem shocked by my sudden question, it did not hold fear but it held nothing, mirrored by my actions.

"Who are you?" Blue whispered at me with curiosity.

"I asked first." We are talking while walking towards a warehouse. They are holding me side to side.

"We're the Blue Fire Gang." The red-haired guy answered. "Now answer us, who are you?"
