The rain poured heavily that night....

The streets were empty.silent.

A lone figure walked under a black umbrella

Nick

His hoodie covered most of his face as he walked past flickering street lights

Then-

Whimper...

He stopped

"did I just hear something?"

The sound came again...weak... painful

Slowly,nick walked towards a trash bin

His heart felt uneasy.

"Hey...is someone there?"

He peeked behind it-

And froze

A dog lying down on the ground.... motionless

it's body covered with brutal rod marks "....what the..."

Nick clenched his fist

"how cruel can people be.."

He stood there for a moment...then quietly walked away

The rain washed everything...but not the feeling in his chest.

When nick reached home ,the warmth felt strange after what he saw.

"you're late,"his mother said from the kitchen

"dinner's ready"

He sat down silently.

"How was college today?"she asked

"normal..."

But his mind wasn't there.

After dinner,he looked around.

"where's lia?"

"in her room" his mother replied.

"she's love on her channel"

Just then-

THUD!

A loud sound echoes from the upstairs

Nick's eyes widened.

"Lia?!"

He rushed upstairs and pushed the door open-

"LIA-!"

He stopped

his sister lay down on the floor... completely still.

Wearing a... Dog costume

"....what are you doing?!"

Lia suddenly got up,annoyed.

"Nick don't disturb!"

"l'm LIVE!'

He blinked in confusion

"live ? acting dead?"

She crossed her arms .

"This is my new case".

"case?"

Lia turned serious.

"in our town....dogs are turning wild."

"They're attacking their own owners."

Nick's expression changed.

The dead dog from earlier flashed in his mind.

"l'm explaining everything to my viewers"

She continued

"so please... leave ".

Then she smirked

"Don't worry,link".

Nick frowned

"it's nick"

"yeah,yeah.whatever.close the door."

He stepped out, shutting it quietly.

Silence filled the hallway.

"....wild dogs..."

His eyes darkened slightly.

Memories of his secret training surfaced.

His real life.

Weekly assignments.

Hidden missions.

"This isn't normal..."

He pulled out his phone.

Sir mark... I found something.

That night as he lay in bed-

His phone buzzed

A message from the group

Sir mark:

"Emergency meeting tomorrow"

Nick stared at the screen.

"...so it begins."

Far away ,on an isolated island near USA, morning arrived quietly.

"Breakfast is ready,"Elsie called gently.

Her brother arron sat across from her.

"what next,Elsie?"he asked calmly.

She paused.

"what do you mean?"

"your college, you wanted to change it,right?'

Her hands trembled slightly.

"...How do you know?"

She had never told him about the bullies.

Arron smiles faintly.

"you don't have to worry anymore ".

"They won't bother you again".

Elsie looked confused.

"what did you do?"

Arron stayed silent.

Some where far away,screams had once echoed...and then disappeared.

Elsie looked down, unaware.

Arron's eyes turned cold.

"Anyone who hurts you..."

"doesn't deserve to live".

Back in the city,a dog howled in the darkness

Its eyes glowed strangely.

Watching.

Waiting.

Something had begun.

To be continued...

It was a bright morning. Phone buzzed 9:30 AM- it was alarm clock

Frowning "aah… What is this sound"

Turn-offs the alarm."oh… No it's already 9:30 AM sir mark is going to kill me this time.

After getting ready "Mom why didn't anyone wake up me?"

"Because you were in deep sleep" said mother

"Seriously mom I am late now"said nick

"late? How? Your college timings are 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM" asked mom

Nick hesitated to answer

"um…uh… Yes but I need to go early to study there"

"Really? You. Study?" she doubted him

"yes mom… Is breakfast ready?"

"Yes come eat it!"

She calls out loud "LIA… Breakfast is ready, come down"

"Coming..." answered LIA

All at the dining table has breakfast.

After the breakfast nick was in rush

"l need to go mom bye"

"Bye bye link" said LIA

Nick gave a frustrated look to her and left.

"I should reach there in time it's already 40 min late "

"Sir mark said that all students should be in time. Sharp 9:00 am, now it's about to turn 9:50"

Nick was very afraid of sir mark.

He stopped before a laundry shop.

"Excuse me sir, what you want?" asked the manager.

"Dry wash, top load with liquid wash" he replied.

"Ok sir then your payment "said the manager.

Nick gave a card. The manager leads him the way to an underground room.

"May I come in sir" said nick

"Welcome nick, this time you're very early than last time.Thank you for showing concern on us"said sir mark angrily.

"Sorry sir, next time it won't repeat. L will be on time" pleaded nick.

All the members in the rest of the group were laughing low.

"Sir mark I am only few minutes late "tried to convince him.

"FEW MINUTES! It's nearly an hour late" said mark.

Nick was his responsibility and he had to train him everything.

"Looks like sir mark is total red with anger"thought nick.

"Down in your seat. Keep silence" said mark.

Nick sat down on the chair.

Sir mark began to explain the emergency situational case.

" This case is different from others"

"in our town many dogs are turning wild"

As he continued that case, Nick's thoughts are running in his head

"This case is that silly one before, Lia said about this"

"This boring case, listening to what I have already known is so boring"thought nick.

Nick felt sleepy because of this and slept there, sir mark continued

"First there were only dogs turning wild, but now there are human cases also reporting now"

"Till now, only in our town 12 cases have been reported"

"These people are also acting wild on others friends, family, everyone"

This news made all the group members panic

"Now these people are kept under observation, in our laboratory"

" We need to investigate this case and solve this problem"

Sir Mark's expression turned very serious

"Or else, it will spread all over the world like a disease"

Sir mark's sight falls on the sleeping Nick

Sir Mark shouted" Nick!"

Nick quickly work up and stood straight.

"Yes sir I will solve this case" said nick

Sir mark surprised by his answer

"First tell me what do you know about the case, you didn't listened to the case though"

Nick confidently says"I will really solve this case sir"

he was thinking of only the dogs turning wild case

Sir mark gave nick the case file to see how hard will Nick try to complete it.

"Take a look at the case file once" he said.

Nick opens the case file and then;

A huge shock expression appears on his face.

"What is this?…." he froze.

The number one spy has entered into his life turning case.

To be continued….

Here at elsie's residence in the island

Breakfast had completed

"Get ready at your hostel I will be there to pick up you Elsie" said Arron.

"Arron please come formally, please, l beg you"

"Really Arron my brother when ever he comes to pick me he will not come alone hey bring say you love me like going for a war"

" Elsie, I was always formal and normal" said Arron with a smirk on his face.

"Ok Arron I believe you" said else.

"Really I don't, I know that smirks" she thinks

Elsie went to her dormitory to pack up things.

"Hey Elsie, is that very necessary to leave?" said her friend Nana

"Nana, we will meet often ok"

She tried to make her feel better.

Elsie happily waved her coming out from the dorm.

And then all started to look at her weird.

"What happened, why does everyone looking at me like that?"

She turned around and -

A variety mix of anger, disability, and embarrassment flashed on her face.

"Arron! What is this I said to be normal!"

Arron brought and helicopter, 4 cars and 19 security guard to pick her.

"Is this not enough security, do you want me to call another group?" said Arron.

Elsie became more flustered hearing this.

"Arron! You should not bring this much security to pick any one person normally"

Elsie burst out in anger.

"Elsie, I wanted you to be safe"said Arron annoyed.

"Is that wrong, that I wish my little cute sister's safety?"

"No... Arron but this is way too much"

Elsie didn't want to waste time there.

She said bye to her friend and climbed in the helicopter.

"Arron, let's leave immediately "she said.

"Ok, let's go" agreed Arron.

They reached the new dormitory.

That was even beautiful than the previous one.

"Arron, this is awesome "said Elsie.

"Yes, cool right"

Giving her sendoff, Arron gave a heart pendant to her.

"Take this, when you miss me touch this pendant" said Arron softly.

" Arron..... Thank you very much my brother" said Elsie.

"This heart pendant has a special feature, it has a portion that can heal any wound or disease"

"Really...this is very good" she said so excited.

"This matches your eye color, bright red" she said.

"Yes, it will remind you of me"

Elsie feels very good that her brother takes much care for her.

"Bye, bye.... Arron, see you again"

Elsie waved him happily.

Arron was full of tears in his eyes and getting very emotional.

"Bye bye my little sister, I will call you every day, or do I come over here to visit you every day?"

Elsie instantly replied.

"No…no, call is enough, please don't come over here to visit every day" she pleaded.

Exploring the new dormitory she entered into her room.

"Ta Dada… Welcome here"

Elsie surprised by this.

There was a girl introducing herself as Bianca.

"Ok Bianca, is this my welcome party going on here?" she said.

"It's normal here"said Bianca.

"We will help you to fit in the room"said the other girls.

"Thank you very much"said Elsie.

"These people are looking very kind and acting good towards me"thought Elsie.

"Arron has a good choice "
