Tiffany hopped down from the taxi and paid the driver. She arrived at her church.

It was big with a touch of colonial style. A big bell elegantly hung on top of its tower. The double door entrance was tall, carved so beautifully. Tiffany

pushed the door and entered. The lobby was quiet. Only a guy bowed to her before he went out the church.

She faced another double door. Less elegant but in exchange it had golden handles. Tiffany opened the door, showing the high roof. The ceiling was

carved with the image of how Eden should be. The tinted glasses were huge on its sides, making the marble floor illuminated with colours. The rows for

congregation to sit down were long and sturdy made of oak wood.

Tiffany sat down on the empty bench in the front row at the church. She looked around. The chapel was empty, only a grandmother was praying across

the room on the second row, she was crying. Tiffany smiled.

"Could she also have someone she wants to protect to?" she whispered.

Tiffany looked to the empty podium where the priest usually gives speech. It looked so lonely without the priest behind it. But it was good, Tiffany

enjoyed moments of silence.

So she closed her eyes and prayed, as hard as she can.

"Please let them come home safely."

Hyoyeon informed Seunghyun that Eeteuk, Yuri and Jessica reached the third basement. Seunghyun wasn't happy, he climbed down from his office at

fifth floor and met with the rest of the squad at the lobby.

"Fill me in," he said.

"Eeteuk made a hole straight from up there to the second basement," said Sunny.

Seunghyun looked at the vertical tunnel Eeteuk had made and he frowned. Under his feet, two floors beneath, four Gifted men were rampaging.

"He passed the second basement already?" he asked.

"Yes," Sunny nodded.

"How many casualties?" Seunghyun looked around.

"None."

"None?"

"They were brutal with their lightnings but they kill no one."

Seunghyun looked around him. The headquarters was a mess, "could we win this war?"

"I'm not sure. We have Taeyeon on our hand though,"

Seunghyun turned to her, "what?"

"Princess had her cornered."

Eeteuk, Yuri and Jessica stood inside a huge containment facility room. Everything was white. In front of them was a corridor with two doors on its side,

at the end, a huge iron door awaited.

"You know, it seems like that door is saying, "Siwon is here, come and get him," don't you think?" Eeteuk asked.

"Yeah, but that means they made it easy for us," Yuri answered, "and they never made it easy for us."

"So you're saying it's a trap?"

"Oppa, ever since we landed our asses here, we already fell into their grasp," Yuri tilted her head.

"True," Eeteuk nodded, "so we have nothing to lose. Charge!"
