Chapter 18 - Marseille to Madrid

Janella's saw her parents' dead bodies...

They were brutally killed, stabs on the different part of their bodies, and gunshots on their chest.

Janella hears a sound from the upstairs that is coming down. Those killers came downstairs and saw the doorstep empty. Janella escaped with traumatized Louis.

Janella ran into a train station and caught the train, the reached Marseille... At first 5 years, Janella tried to manage their expenses with different part-time jobs, but how much a teenager would get?

Janella was powerless, and her brother's expenses started to increase...

When Janella was creating the table, she heard a whisper, "Come to Spain... you'll be paid more than you're paid in France." Janella turns around, but there was no one, as if nobody was ever there, but she looks down and finds a letter,

'Come to Wedunus district. In Madrid. In the world of criminals, being kind is no use. People will eventually destroy this innocence. It's their hobby. Yours 'don't expect loyalty from me' Handler.' And Janella finds an envelope with money and visa.

At last, she decided to go to Spain with Louis.

When they landed in Madrid, she walked around clueless before sitting on a bench. A woman in black sits beside her, handing her a fake Spanish passport and saying, "Handler?"

Janella just nodded, and the woman said, "Don't worry, your brother will be safe."

Janella looks around in panic, and Louis isn't beside her, "Where's my brother?" Janella asked desperately.

"I told you. He's safe. Now follow me."

The woman leads her inside the car.

"So... what's your name?" Janella softly asks.

"Eleanor Williams." She turned to Janella and said sternly, "And you're?" And Janella says, "Jane... Janella Winters." Eleanor nods before leading her inside the warehouse of the Wedunus district.

Eleanor pats the chair beside her and hands her a blindfold before blindfolding herself, "Blindfold yourself. We can't talk to the Handler if we don't blindfold ourselves."

After Janella blindfolded herself, the door opens and someone entered, "So... you're here. Welcome to Madrid, Janella. Welcome to our G.G.A. I hope highly of you."

The handler gave Janella her first mission, and she got her first payment after the mission. But Louis later died of Subependymal Giant Cell Astrocytoma.

Janella consoled herself and 2 years passed when she was moving on but she lost her pendant and she was finding it, she sat on a bench and was searching of it in her bag

"Hi..." A man softly greets.

Janella turns around and meets his eyes, "Hi..." Before turning back to her bag.

"Did something happen?" There was a hint of concern in his eyes.

"I... I can't find something..." Janella looks tensed.

"Is it this?" The man asks as he holds out the pendant.

"Yeah... by the way... what's your name?" Janella asked as she took it from Theodore's man's hand.

"Theodore..."

"Ah... Théodore's a nice nom..."

"Are you French?" Theodore asked.

Janella chuckles at Theodore's question before nodding.

"We should meet more often." Theodore grins as he says.

"Okay." Janella replies.

PRESENT

Janella finished the glass of wine, "I'm dating Theodore to never ever be powerless... that's why—"
