Chapter 2 - Attacked.

The person asked the maid "Is this Walker's Residence?"

"Well, yes it is," Maid answered the man. Then asked, "Why?"

The man took a step inside with a dirty smile on his face.

"Then can you please tell us where Ryan is?"

'This person is calling sir by his name. They must know each other.' The maid thought standing in the doorway, 'But what's with that smile...?'

"Young sir! You have guests! These men are looking for you!" Maid turned around and called Ryan.

Ryan who was sitting inside was not sure if he should get out of his room. He was suspicious about those men. He already smelled gunpowder.

'I should just go and check what's up.' Ryan got up from his bed and walked to the doorknob.

"Young sir is in his room. He will come, please come inside and wait till then." Maid moved away from the doorway and asked those men to come inside.

That man's smile disappeared. He tilted his upper body rearward.

"Hm, Kill her." He commanded the men who were standing behind him.

They took their guns out, shot the Maid dead. They had kept it loaded and ready. Ryan jumped off his bed when he heard the gunshot.

"Go inside and kill Walker's son." The dominant figure ordered those men again. Three men charged inside the house with guns in their hands.

'Shit. Are they coming for me? But why me?! What have I done? Why kill me?'

Ryan utilized his Clairalience Trait to detect the situation going on. He came to know that three men were charging inside his house, with guns in their hands.

Ryan's body shivered after he learned the current situation. 

This was the first time someone was here to kill him, despite being scared, and negative about everything; being weak which makes him unable to fight, he tried to escape.

Thanks to his Trait. Somehow he opened the window and got ready to jump out of his room's window.

A man kicked Ryan's room door. The door went flying inside the room. They noticed Ryan, who was attempting to jump off the window.

Ryan spotted those men who had got inside the room. He hurried and jumped out of the window.

He was on the ground floor so it was not a problem for Ryan to jump off the window.

The men were tardy by seconds. They ran inside the room to get Ryan. They shot at the window but Ryan had already jumped out.

Now, Ryan has another Trait that is kept as a secret from everyone. It is Super speed. Ryan can run at the speed of twenty kilometers per hour!

Thanks to this Trait, Ryan took off running. Two men leaned over the window, they stared at Ryan with surprise, he was too fast.

They shot in Ryan's direction but missed again and again. Another man who was standing behind came forward. He pushed all other men away.

He lifted his right hand up. Turned his palm into a fist. Aimed at running Ryan. With all his power he pulled his arm back.

His plan was to trap Ryan by the utilization of his Trait. But this time again, Ryan ran off.

Ryan ran and ran, he ran into a swamp. He stopped there when he was out of breath.

"W- who are those men? Why are they here? Why do they want to kill me? How do they know who I am?"

Ryan decided to stay outside. He was additionally scared. After several hours of being outside Ryan entered a general store to take a look at the time.

It was already dark. The sun had already pulled down. The time was Eight O'Clock. Ryan felt that the people might have gone by now. He decided to go back.

He was way too far from his house. After a long walk, he reached his place.

He saw an enormous crowd in front of his house. There were police cars present in front of his house. 

Ryan used Clairalience to detect what was going on near his house. Ryan smelled gunpowder again.

But he found this smell to be rather faint and different from the men who came to kill him previously.

"We need to investigate this properly. Have you found him yet?" Ryan recognized a conversation going on right in front of his house's door.

"No sir, we have not found him yet."

"Oh. Then please go and find Ryan Walker as soon as possible. His life is in danger!"

Ryan went near his house. He passed through the crowd of people Ryan determined to reach his house's doorstep.

There were few policemen standing there. Ryan came closer to them.

"Uhh, Sir, officer, I- I am Ryan Walker." He told one officer.

"What? Thank god! Are you hurt, my boy?? Tell me are you hurt?" They started investigating Ryan.

"I ran out of my house through the window, they shot in my direction but I was able to dodge it," Ryan told them.

"Hello Ryan, I am an S-Grade Officer, Greg." Ryan and Greg shook their hands. Ryan greeted him with a smile.

"Who were they, officer? Why were they here? How did they-"

"They were Mafia. The Underworld Mafia. They were here to kill you for some reason. How did they get here? Well, we still lack knowledge about that."

"W- what?" Ryan was totally shocked after hearing the officer say, "M- Mafia-?"

Ryan's body began shivering after hearing this.

"Yes, boy. So for now, please stay inside your house, do not get out of your house for anything. We will provide you with police security."

"T- thank you, officer. I am grateful for this." Ryan bowed his head down a little.

He agreed with the security thing. He saw the maid's body was already shifted for postpartum as her body was not there.

The officers continued shooing away the crowd of people. Ryan stood in the doorway for some time.

"Mum, Dad? Where are they?" He asked himself.

Officer Greg heard him turn towards Ryan. He moved forward and kept his hand on Ryan's shoulder. Ryan turned his head.

"I am sorry for your loss Ryan. Your parents…." Greg dodged Ryan's gaze.

"What? What happened to mum and dad?" Ryan asked him impatiently.

"Actually Ryan…. Your parents passed away in a terrible accident. They lost their lives in an outrageous accident, today at six-thirty PM. I am genuinely sorry for your loss."

"W- what did you just say?!?" The Mafia coming for him was already much of a shock, and now his parents.
