It's already late at night but it seems like Tala isn't coming back. With my heavy body I pull myself together and get up. Change some clothes and went outside.

I can feel how cold it is, my body is shaking. Damn. I take out my phone and come to realized that I don't have Tala's number because she doesn't have any phone.

Oh no-

This is not good. I can feel my heart aching hoping and praying that she's doing okay. I don't know what to do if I lose her.

I started walking despite of how dark it is outside. I do feel scared but there's nothing much scarier than losing the person you love.

Where could she be?

I tried going to the store the we used to shop but I end up finding nothing. I tried asking the cashier if they found Tala, and I did describe her but no, they didn't saw her.

I keep on walking even though the moon is already bright. I can't even hear anymore person walking.

The last place I visited is the playground. Nobody is around so I take a sit and swing for a bit. I can feel my legs being heavy.

I'm so tired.

I want to see her so bad. I took a deep breath and close my eyes for a bit. All I hear is the sound of the wind. Then there's-

There is a sudden sound of a rustle.

—What the hell ?.

I stood up and slowly walk near the bush. And there I saw something unusual. It's Tala sleeping. Why is she here? I took a glimpse at her body just to see her filthy clothes. There's a lot of bruises and wounds.

What the hell happened to her.

I slowly picked her up so that she won't feel hurt. I made her lay her head through my shoulder and pull Tala up. She's not heavy at all.

“What happened to you?” I asked while I started walking back home.

I can hear her murmuring. And with a surprised Tala grabs my clothes, it was tight enough to almost choke me. It seems like she's having a nightmare.

And as the moon reaches her face, Tala's blonde her turning back to black.

Oh no- this can't be good.

“There she is!” Someone shouted. As I look back there's a man standing, wearing a suit. He flashed the light to us and with a blink of an eye, Tala's injured body attacked the man behind us.

Tala punches the guy's face and he fell down with just one hit. Then there's a loud whistle coming and a lot of flashlights.

Tala came back from her true form. She might be scary but damn! I love her! Tala looks so beautiful.

Tala stared at me for a moment. Her angry red eyes are staring at me but as soon as she recognized me, there's a sudden puppy eyes.

She looks so adorable.

As I continue looking at her, I end up forgetting the people that are hunting her.

Someone shot Tala's neck with a sleeping pills on it. Tala is trying her best to stand still but she immediately fell down in front of me.

Thanks to my fast reflexes I caught her with both of my arms. I started tapping her face gentle but she's not waking up. I even removed the bullet that shot Tala.

Heartless people.

I heard a gun shot for another time but it was about to shoot me but- as I open my eyes, someone's hand is in front of me. Catching the bullet that supposed to hit me.

“Too slow” a female voice said behind a cat's mask.

She moves so fast that I can't even see her moving. All I know is that she finishes those stupid bastard without any sweat.

“And that's 45 second. A new record! ” She shouted while looking at her pocket watch.

Everyone fell down already on the ground. I hold Tala so tight while looking at the girl the might saved us.

She slowly walk near us and slowly removes the mask.

“Long time no see, my hero”

It was her. The girl inside my dream.
