Menedelia stood rooted on the spot. A bright smile appeared on her lips. "They're coming..." she told the guy silently.
And that was the moment Zero's knife hit Menedelia's stomach.
"Arghhh..." Menedelia groaned at the impact of the stab.
"Double over. Make them believe that you're hit by my knife," he said. "How much time we got?" Zero whispered.
"A few seconds, bring the girl over here," Menedelia said. She bends down pretending that she was hit badly in the stomach and dropped on the floor dead.
Zero looked at the men. "I already killed her!" he informed them. "Nini, come here!" he commanded.
Nini rushed to his side. Zero grabbed her hand.
The leader of the men looked at the emotionless woman on the floor. "Go and check the woman if she's already dead! Two will guard the entrance of the portal!" he barked his orders.
The men moved swiftly to follow their leader's command.
