The children started to talk. "Pretty sister, will you punish those bad guys?"
"Sister, punish them. I wanted to buy some medicine for my sick mother. But then, I was kidnapped. No one is there to save my mother now."
"Sister, I wanted to play with my friends but I was kidnapped too. I want to play with them but I can't do it anymore. Punish those bad guys, okay?"
Veronica looked at them, feeling overwhelmed.
She shut her eyes and thought, 'I could have saved them. If only I was more powerful …'
As if they could listen to her inner voice. They told her, "No matter how much you regret, it won't bring us back. We don't know what you have done but if you help us now, we will know you as our benefactor."
Veronica hesitated, "…But…"
"You can do this!"
"We have high hopes for you, beautiful sister!"
