None of them can understand what had happened.
Marin was sitting in her chair when Paigne aimed her gun at her. She noticed a spherical sized thing marching in by giving a hissing sound and it released white smoke. Soon the room turned misty and Marin couldn't see anyone. Fatan barked out some words. But after a minute of time, there were no shouts and sounds.
Marin sensed that her legs were being undone. She didn't know who was rescuing her. She didn't even know that she was being rescued. The person had undone her legs and took hold of her hands and forced her to go with him. Marin refused at first and her common sense told her to move. Finally she moved.
The entire room was misty and it was impossible for Marin to breathe normally. Moreover she couldn't see anything. Her only hope was the person who was holding her hands and taking her downstairs. When they reached downstairs, there was no white mist. Marin tried to see the guy who had saved her from the gates of death. The person who had saved her was a boy, probably three years older than Marin. He looked fit and his face was covered by a mask. So Marin could hardly recognize the boy.
The boy took Marin to his black Nissan car and said, "Get in."
Marin nodded and went in. She sat near to the boy, who gonna drive the car. Finally the boy removed his mask. He had a white face with a mole in his right cheek. He had black eyes and he looked charming. Something crashed in Marin's mind. She had seen the boy once upon a time and now she could hardly recognize him.
"Who are you?" Marin asked.
"Do you not then remember me?" the boy asked.
"No I can't remember." Marin said.
The boy gave a smile and said" I'm Greyson."
Marin's eyes widened out on hearing that name. She said "You are…"
Greyson said, "Brother of Lavan."

Paigne came back to consciousness after twenty minutes. The time was around 6:15pm. She punched the table in anger as her target had escaped. She found Fatan Khan lying on the floor without any movements. She ran to the kitchen and found a water bottle in the refrigerator. She took it with her and went to see Fatan. She sprayed some water on Fatan's eyes and was relieved to see Fatan coming back to consciousness. Fatan got to his feet and kicked the floor with complete hatred. He shook his head in tension as he was responsible for the escape of Marin.
"Paigne who had done that?" he asked.
"I don't know." Paigne replied.
"What shall we do now?"
"Need to think. Can you locate the location of Marin's phone?"
"Yeah. Give me twenty minutes."
Fatan had done the same help for Paigne to locate the location of Kasper Dravid.
After twenty minutes, Fatan's face had lost its brightness. He said, "Sorry Paigne. It's not possible to track the location of Marin."
Paigne shook her head in disappointment and said, "We have to think."
*********
Everyone was holding their phones in their hands in Franklin's house. They had contacted Marin but there was no response from her.
Marin's mom, Rossy had contacted Marin's friends but their replies were,
"Sorry aunt, I don't know."
Rossy was so worried and frightened. She prayed to God that her daughter should return home safely without any problems. Marin informed her that she was going to meet Alacia for completing an assignment. Rossy also tried Alacia's phone number but there was no reply.
Every inmates of the house assembled in the hall.
"Now what shall we do?" Jake asked.
The time was around 6.00pm. Marin had left the house earlier itself. Marin's father, Milan said, "There is only one way. We have to seek help from the Police."
"But did you see the news today?" Jake asked.
"What news?"
"A police Inspector, named Gajan was killed in a bomb attack."
"What's the relation?"
��There is no security to the police itself. Then how could we believe them?"
Milan thought for a moment and said, "That doesn't matter. I gonna give a complaint. We have to find Marin." Jake nodded.
Already the family members had lost their head and to make matters worse, Marin was missing.
"Alright I alone shall go to the station. Jake take care of others." Milan said as he left the house.
When he went out of the house, he received two text messages.
He opened it. The messages had come from a same unknown number. He read the first message,
DAD! IT'S ME MARIN.I CAN'T XPLAIN EVERYTHING 2 U. DON'T PANIC. I'M SAFE HERE. DON'T GO 2 POLIS! DON'T SEARCH ME!
He was happy on reading the first message. He decided to read the second message. He read it,
SRY 2 TEL TIS. OUR FAMILY IS IN DANGER. DANGER!!! IT'S BCOZ OF U DAD. BCOZ OF U!!! I CAN'T XPLAIN EVERYTHING. TC OF OUR FAMILY.DON'T SHOW TIS 2 OTHERS. READ&DEL IT.....
His face turned pale on reading the second message. 'What did I do?' he thought. He deleted the second message and rushed into the house to show the message which was sent by Marin at first.
He found his family members sitting in the same positions when he went out. Jake was the first to note his entry.
"What had happened?" Jake asked.
"Good news." Milan said and he tried to hide the horror of the second message sent by Marin. Though he deleted it, he couldn't able to believe what Marin had meant.
"What good news?" Jake asked.
Milan extended his phone to Jake and Jake read the message. His face was delighted on reading it. He gave it to Rossy, who was weeping and she too became delighted on reading it. "My daughter is safe" Rossy said in happiness.
"Yeah." Milan replied.
Jake had a terrific doubt and came near to Milan and said "Did you believe it?"
"Yes. What was wrong in it?" Milan protested.
"Why Marin didn't make a phone call to us?" Jake asked.
"Let's believe that Marin had sent it." Milan said confidently as he had received two messages and the second message revealed the truth that Marin had sent him the messages.
He went upstairs and there were two photos hanging on the wall near to the wall clock. He didn't give a look at it and went up. Even if he had seen the first photo, he would not have known what the danger was which was meant by Marin.

Marin had slept only for thirty minutes. She was woken up by Greyson, the Super Man who had rescued her. He was the one who asked Marin to send messages to Milan through his phone before her sleep. She requested to have a talk with her family members but Greyson rejected it. He said that the dangers would have heard their conversation if they spoke. Marin obeyed him. Greyson threw his phone as well as Marin's phone out of the car. He took every step in a safe way so that no one could find their location.
They were travelling nearly for an hour. Either of them barely spoke during the journey. Marin said, "Where are we heading to?"
"Minjur." Greyson replied.
"Where is it?"Marin asked.
"It's in Karnataka."
"Are you living there?"
"Yeah."
"But what's the use of it?"
"You will know it soon."
Marin felt frustrated. Her family is in danger. How could she go to Karnataka? She decided to keep calm and patient.
"You have to explain me everything." Greyson said.
"OK" Marin replied.
