L shook her head. She didn''t know how to react. In fact, her emotion was in turmoil ''As I thought. He''s not as simple as he looks. His background won''t be simple… I need to be his friend.'' She bit the edge of her lip. "What do you want me to do with him?" She pouted. "You''ve done everything I nned to do."


    Emma shrugged. He approached Smoke. Smoke knelt, looking at the four men with hidden fury. ''Our group wille when we don''t return in two minutes. Then, I''ll see how you react….'' He snickered in his mind. Smoke turned his head and saw the devil standing in front of him.


    What!


    Bam!


    Emma gave Smoke an uppercut. Smoke flew, hitting the roof of the train. Bam! He hit the floor, blood rushing to his brain. His brain ceased to function for a few seconds. Blood gushing out from his mouth, teeth escaping from his mouth, flying everywhere on the coach. Everything clouded. After a minute, his brain resumes its function. Smoke looked at Emma shivering.


    Now, he understands what Rage felt. This is no joke.


    "Call your boss"


    ….


    Smoke didn''t have any second thought. The fear he had from the punches had been ingrained in his mind. He tapped thems in his ear. "Boss, we have a situation here. We need your attention. ASAP." Smoke disconnects thems.


    "That''s good…" Emma nodded, turning his head.


    Smoke wanted to breathe a sigh when he saw the devil leave. However, Emma turned back.


    Bam!


    Ah!!!


    Smoke cried in agony. The pain came from the depth of his soul. While silence filled the train. Everyone held their breath.


    Emma punched Smoke''s nose, sending him crashing at the door at the far end. Witnessing this, L''s four security men shivered. Smoke''s cry resounded in their soul. All the passengers trembled, looking at the wriggling Smoke on the floor. Smoke groaned in pain. His nose broke from the punchbined with the previous uppercut. His head turned hazy. Tears dropped from the edge of my eyes.


    "Please… don''t punch me… anymore." Smoke sobbed. "…I''ll do everything…. youmand."


    "Of course, you are going to do what Imand." Emma retorted, walking toward L.


    The passengers were scared of Emma. However, not the type of scared they have toward their attackers. But the ingrained fear that every human has toward things beyond theirprehension. Now, smiles blossom on their faces when they look at the miserable conditions of the two attackers.


    "You know there are more of them. Calling their boss may not be a good decision…." L raised his brow with concern. "Though, I don''t know how strong you are. But caution must be taken…" She looked straight into Emma''s eyes.


    "Don''t worry. I''m not some hot-blooded youth that wants to impress a damsel in distress…." Emma shrugged. "I asked for their boss after so many considerations…. If we take care of their boss. Then everything will be easy…" He pointed to Smoke and Rage. "They are just pawns. If we want to escape from their ws. We need to take care of their leader… Don''t you agree?"


    Hearing this, L had nothing to say. She only nodded. ''Revengeful and cunning.''


    "Besides, we need to reach the train control system in less than 5 minutes to put the train back online," Emma added.


    "Oh!" L gasped. ''I forget he''s an AI engineer. There might be a way for us to continue our journey. I hope everything goes ording to his n."


    "Return to your position. Let''s wait for their boss." Emma dered. However, instead of him sitting beside L. He walked to the door, and stood there, waiting patiently.


    >>Do you think your n is feasible …


    ''Are you doubting me?'' Emma asked with carefreeness.


    >>This is not doubting. But consideration. However, I won''t meddle in your n. Let''s see how the master nner deals with this.


    Emma pursues his lips. He thought for a few seconds and said. "Two of you take those idiots hostage as well as their weapons." He pointed at two of L''s guards named Lee and Jenkins.


    At once, Lee and Jenkins dragged Rage and Smokes to the other side across the door, holding the rifle in their hand professionally. Seeing this, a slight frown appeared on Smoke''s eyes but it disappeared instantly. No one caught the slight frown or else they would have found something was amiss.


    The tension in the coach raised to another level. Without telling, everyone knew that what was about to happen next won''t be easy. The calm L wrinkled her brow, fidgeting, and having a hard time sitting still.


    Emma brought his 9mm pistol, controlling his breathing and waiting for the target. ''I hope everything goes as nned. If not for these people. I won''t be stressed like this. Fuck! We are racing against time on top of this shit.''


    Creak


    A footsteps echoed in the silent coach. Another footstep echoed, getting closer. Everyone in the coach held their breath, face turning ashen, white, pallid. The only sound on the coach came from the air condition, humming.


    Creak!


    The coach door slides open, and the nose of a rifle enters the coach, and a man peeps inside the coach. But when he saw two men holding hisrades hostage, his gaze turned grim. He took a step inside the coach with wariness. The man''s name was Jude


    ''That step is what I need.''


    Before Jude could understand what was happening. Emma left his position, gripping Jude''s rifle, and dragged him inside the coach. Everything happened in a matter of seconds. But as a professional marksman. Jude regained hisposure immediately. However, the strength in Emma''s force threw him off guard.


    Emma threw inside the coach. However, still in the air , shoot in the forehead. Killing instantly. Emma didn''t wait a second. He rushed out of the coach. Outside, a man hid by the wall, waiting for a signal. But he saw something shed in his eyes.


    Bam!


    Ah!


    Emma sends a heavy kick to the man''s chest, sending crashing to the wall. Before the man could understand what''s happening. A bullet hole appeared on his forehead. Emma didn''t stop his movement. He entered the next coach but was greeted with torrential bullets. Quickly, Emma hides behind a chair.


    ''I know you will wee your Grandpa with bullets. But your grandpa is prepared. '' He brought out two circr devices and threw them at the location of the bullets.


    At once, a piercing sound came resounded everywhere while smokes filled the coach. Emma dashed from his hidden spot. His speed is twice the fastest man on earth. He covered the short distance in a jiffy.


    Two armed men were covering their ears, failing to notice the presence of Emma. They opened their eyes wide when they finally noticed Emma''s presence. Scrambling to raise their guns.


    "Hasta…… vista"


    Thud!


    The two men lifelessly fall on the floor. Emma took a deep breath, preparing to continue his assault. ''I have less than three minutes.''


    At the train control room. A man with a menacing gaze watched as a man took care of his subordinate. He gripped the device in hand tightly, clenching his teeth, helplessly.


    "Fuck!" He yelled, leaving the control room.


    ….


    L and all the passengers had yet to process what they just witnessed. Most of them had their mouths ckening. Rage and smoke gasped at the same time. while Lee and Jenkins looked at each other nking out. L shook her head rubbing her eyebrow.


    Is this for real?!


    No! This can''t be real!


    We are probably hallucinating.


    Everyone looked at each other, trying to confirm what they saw was real. But seeing the expression on each other''s faces. No one needed to be told that what they witnessed wasn''t hallucinating. A full minute passes before they starting from the stupor. Smiles blossom on their faces. Now, their hope raised another bar. With Emma''s disy of strength. They were confident that they would escape from their nightmare.


    Meanwhile, nobody noticed Rage and smoke. They withered like a tree. Their legs turned to jelly. They would have fallen if not for the support of Lee and Jenkins. However, their nightmare was yet to finish. Lee and Jenkins felt a sudden extreme weight. Both of them looked at their hostages resting on their bodies. They snickered.


    Bam!


    Ah!!!!


    Rage and Smoke knockout by the sudden hit. Thud! They slum on the floor. Lee and Jenkins looked at each other and smiled. While the passenger discovered andughed. The tense atmosphere diffused a bit. Nevertheless, there exists hidden panic at the bottom of their heart. We hope he seeds. They prayed in their hearts.


    ''Can he take care of all the attackers…'' L raised her brow. She pursed her lips. ''I can''t rx not knowing what happened.''


    "Lee and Jenkins. Follow him and make sure nothing happens to him." Lmanded.


    ''How are you going to make sure nothing happens to him? He''s three times stronger than both of us.''


    Lee and Jenkins reluctantly leave their coach with a slight frown on their face. Seeing their expression, L understood what they were feeling and sighed. ''I can''t let him face everything alone. I know you''re nothing in front of his power.. But, no one can say….''
