" Princess, mom has an important work she has to finish, She will be back soon to celebrate your birthday with you Vida calmly explain trying to calm the anxious Roxanne.
Roxanne waited for her mother but she never came till dawn she felt someone calling in her sleep to wake up.
Wake up dear, Wake up we don't have time. Roxanne opened her eyes and saw her mother sitting beside her bed. She quickly hugged her mother and her mom hug her back. Behind her mother was a girl of her age but what caught her attention was the mask the girl was wearing.
" Mom who's she ?
" Baby we don't have time we have to leave now Victoria said anxiously without answering Roxanne's question. Vida entered the room in a hurry and handed a gun to Victoria, which Roxanne was very shocked seeing a real gun for the first time but the girl in the the mask didn't panick like her. It seems she's familiar with this side of the world.
We have to get going Vic. Victoria nodded and they headed for the back door of the house. Before they could get to the car some assassins dress in black began shooting at them.
Shit Vida hissed they're on to us. Fear engulfed Roxanne and she began trembling with teary eyes as she hid behind her mother for protection.
Vida and Victoria shot back at them and safely getting the girls to the car and started the engine with full speed drove away from there. Along the way they spotted a van trailing behind and shooting at them, Victoria drove the car left to right inorder to avoid the bullet aim but their car crashed into another car on the way. Vida fell unconscious whiles the trio was hurt. They went out of the car but was surrounded by the henchmen following them.
" Hahaha doll impressive I like the wild once " said the leader evilly with a gun pointed at them. Victoria with the girls on left, The mask girl had a cut on her forehead and arm due to the crashed whiles Roxanne could barely stand straight with tear streaming down her face. P please... don't hurt my mommy " Roxanne pleaded as she continues to do. But Victoria expression turn icy from cold. The mask girl clenched her hands into a fist with blood oozing from her wounded arm even with the mask on one can see how scary the girls expression was.
" Is me you want right ? the mask girl who has been quite all these while asked with an icy tone making the leader flinched.
She's so scary Roxanne thought.
" No boss don't give to them " said Victoria I will....

" Take your daughter and leave from here " said the mask girl
she wanted to continue but was stopped by her boss.
" It's an order Victoria she added making Victoria quite.
The man aim his gun at the mask girl and pulled the trigger everywhere went silent but before the bullet could hit her a body cover her like a shield. The girl eyes grew wider as she stares at the person who saved her.
