"Excuse me sir!" the man called out and immediately stood up trying to gain the attention of the officer who just entered the cabin after his lunch.

"Ah, Aaron right!?" The officer acknowledged his presence by sighing a little as he was really getting annoyed by the guy approaching him daily. The officer purposely stayed at the canteen thinking that Aaron would leave him but his plan didn't work out.

"Yes sir!, Did you get any information or clue about her? I mean it's been-"

"We didn't get anything. And I think the case will be closed soon!"

Aaron's heart just dropped into gut when he heard those words.

Closed!? How can they do that?

"How could you do that? She's been missing for more than a week now! Still there are no signs of her, not even a clue. Her phone is switched off and-"

"Listen boy! I am not saying this to hurt you but still, it's not new for us to get missing cases of young girls. Maybe she left by herself to get something done." The officer spoke interrupting Aaron's words.

"What do you mean?"

"Hmm, I have seen many cases like these. Many girls just leave their house for so called love or boyfriend and when we trace them they will be found in hospital going for an abortion and maybe the girl jus-"

A loud bang echoed through the cabin making the officer flinch with the sudden impact.

Aaron's fist got collided with the hard wooden table in front of him and the blood rushing out of the cuts on his knuckles didn't bother him at all.

The red blood is similar to his fiery red eyes as he tried hard to control his anger within himself.

"If you can't do it, I will do it by myself. I advise you not to talk bad about my friend." he gritted through his teeth which made the officer to go silent witnessing the scene.

Closing the door behind him with a thud Aaron stepped out of the office and a shaky breath left his throat.

The blazing sun hit his face and he hissed when the hot sun rays hit his wounded hand gaining his attention.

His eyes flickered over to his bloody knuckles and it reminded him of the past events.

"Excuse me! You dropped it!" The girl tried to get the attention of the young boy with pale skin and stoic face.

The boy's eyes immediately flickered over to the small pendant necklace in her hands and he snatched it from her thrusting it into his pocket.

He was about to turn around to leave but got stopped by her again.

"Umm, actually I'm new here. Can you tell me the directions for the near grocery store?" she asked with a cute little smile on her face which he ignored totally.

He rolled his eyes flashing an uninterested cold glare towards her and walked past her gesturing for her to follow.

Taking a few steps he got bumped into other boy who purposely stood there to block his way.

"Oh, what is our little Aaron doing here? Huh? Did your father finally kicked you out this time?" the boy spoke with an intention to anger Aaron, but Aaron didn't even try to show a little bit reaction on his comment. He just kept his usual poker face which made the boy more angry.

"Give it what you have! I need to go. Quick!" the boy demanded making the girl to flinch but not Aaron.

"I don't have mone-"

*punch*

The guy just gave a punch right on Aaron's face to which his face turned to the side due to the impact.

Grabbing his collar he landed a few more punches on his face but halted his actions hearing a loud yell from the girl.

"Stop! I will give you the money, leave him." She hastily took out the money she had and gave it to the boy which brought a satisfactory smirk on his face.

He began to count the money he had received successfully but halted in his actions when a deep voice spoke.

"You got what you need right! Now it's my turn!"

The boy yelped in pain when Aaron grabbed him by his collar and punched him continuously which made his knuckles to bleed and the boy's face to get smashed like a potato.

The girl shrieked in horror watching the horrific scene and her desperate tries to stop the fight went in vain and finally after what it felt like hours Aaron released the boy from his grip harshly and took hold of the money before sparing the boy to save his life.

Turning to face the girl who is still in shock of the horrible scene, he handed her the money with the same poker face.

"I don't like when others help me. Mind your own business!" it was not an advice it was more like a warning.

The girl just stared at him dumbfounded by his words while he turned around to leave.

Taking a few steps forward he halted getting annoyed again.

"Why are you following me?"

He asked being irritated by her following him.

"You still didn't tell me the directions for the grocery store." she shrugged slightly making him to scoff in disbelief. And he guided her all the way.

"I'm Amara!" she introduced herself by stretching her hand out along with a small smile.

He scoffed and mumbled the word "I don't care" but still took her hand into his and shook it slightly.

"Walker! Aaron Walker!" he said dryly with the same poker face. A small threatened to appear on his face when she bandaged his hand with her handkerchief.

"Take care of yourself, I need to go now. Let's meet again if possible Aaron! Bye!" she said while disappearing from his sight.

They met daily, she called him friend and he added Best. They became best friends since then. He was touched when he heard "Take care of yourself" from her. It was his mother who said it to him before she left him alone with his father.

He wouldn't just let anyone to get close to him. But once he allows someone into his heart, he will protect them and love them till his death.

And Amara, she made into his heart as his best friend.

A tear threatened to escape his eyes but he harshly wiped it off while fishing out his phone hastily. It became his habit, whenever he gets a call he answers thinking that it might be Amara!

He answered it thinking that it might be her, but alas it wasn't her.

"Hel-"

"Aaron! Amara's mom, she fainted. Come fast I'm sending you the location." he hung up immediately as soon as he heard Skyler's voice.

"Damn!" he cursed under his breath while leaving the place in hurry but the man who kept his gaze upon Aaron till now dailed a number as he was told to do.

"They are finding for her Boss! It's been more than a weak and she's still missing." The man informed to his boss right on the time.

The man on the other side just let out a chuckle which didn't fail to give chills to the people beside him. It was scary, his laugh! It was more scary than a viper. No wonder they call him HADES!, The Devil. 

"Hmm, she's missing? Right when I'm finding her, Interesting! Very interesting!" his smirk widened as he leaned against his chair majestically after hanging up the phone.

"Please, Spare me. I'm sorry I wouldn't try to spy on you again. I wouldn't even live in this country anymore. Please I beg you."

His eyes shifted to the man who knelt in front of him and begged desperately while joining his hands.

"You know what!? I like the thing in your eyes, fear. I would like see that more." He said chuckling at the sight of the man getting more pale then before.

"please Mr. Damian, Ple-"

"It's Hades, Just Hades." Damian growled as he stood up from his seat and within a fraction of seconds he pointed his gun to the man's head while eyeing him with rage.

"You did a grave mistake by calling me by my name. I will let you know what will happen if you anger me." A wicked chuckle left his lips as Damian gestured his men to grab the man who's already begging him to spare.

"Need to get ready. It's time for the show! " He smirked as he made his way to his room.
