Skyler had just finished cleaning Chris wounds on his body. She wiped the blood with a wet cloth, there were red marks on almost all parts of Chris body.
Skyler's eyes trailed to Chris shoulder were he was shot twice. She had checked if the bullets were still inside his shoulder but it has been removed leaving only the holes on his skin.
" What happened to you " she whispered.
" Who did this you "
Just then Chris phone rang, thankfully whosoever tortured him hadn't taken his phone. Skyler reached for the phone which was on his pocket.
The caller was Kendricks, she picked up the call and answered the phone.
" Hello Mr Ken, this is Skyler " she said.
" Skyler ? What are.... What are you doing with Chris phone, where is him I've been.... "
" Chris is badly wounded, he's here in my house right now as we speak "
" What happened "
" He got shot and by the looks of it, I think he was tortured "
" Shot ? Where ? "
" Twice on his shoulder, the mission you sent him didn't go well as... "
" Mission ? What mission ? I didn't send Chris on any mission " Kendrick said.
" I thought you did, how come he's been shot "
" I don't know, maybe someone is behind this "
" They have been spying on him "
" I think so, how is he holding up "
" He's not good, his breathing is faint "
" I'm going to send someone to come pick him up so we can get him to the hospital ASAP "
" Oh my God..... " Skyler gasped.
" What happened "
" He is bleeding on his shoulder "
" Try to stop him from bleeding , someone will come to pick him up now "
" O...okay " Skyler said with shaky breath.
" Sky ? " Kendricks called.
" Y... Yes "
" Are you okay "
" Yes... I'm fine "
" He's gonna be okay "
" I know, please send them quickly "
" Sure....take care " and the call ended.
Skyler dropped the phone on the table and use the wet cloth to press on the wound on Chris neck so he won't bleed much.
His face was pale and his lips were jabbed, beads of sweat were on his forehead as he struggled to breathe.
" Just hold on a little help is on the way okay " she said to Chris.

IN A WAREHOUSE
A man sat on a chair with his legs crossed, he had his fingers entwined together. He had his eyes closed, his name was Reed Shane.
The boss of SS ( Secret Society ) Just like the SA ( Secret Agents. Unlike Kendricks who helped take down the bad guys.
Reed instead do some dirty deeds just like Williams Jones. For years he had been doing such acts and hadn't been caught.
No one knows about them but Kendricks Easton knows about them and their dirty deeds they did in secrets. Their a swift knock on the door.
" Come in " Reed said.
A tall man got in and came to stand before him " Sir, we have found out his location "
Reed opened his eyes which were two colours, his right eye were brown while his left eye was dark brown with a scar which ran across his eye to his thick brow.
Whatsoever that had happened to him on his left eye had changed the color of his eye to dark brown.
" Hmm " Reed hummed for the man to continue.
The man then told Reed where Chris location was ".... also the girl we are looking for is with him but ... " the man said.
" But what ? "
" She is surrounded with people, according to what I searched for, she stays in the sixth floor of the building but she lives alone "
" Then we wait till she is alone and then you know what to do "
" Yes sir "
" You can leave " Reed said to see the man leave and close the door behind him.
" Just you wait girl, you'll pay for what you did " he said with an evil smirk on his face which gave him a dangerous look added with the scar on his left eye.
EVERGREEN HOSPITAL
Chris was taken to the hospital as Kendricks had sent some of his SA people to take him to the hospital and Skyler had followed them.
Skyler now sat outside the VVIP ward as she wasn't allowed to be in the ward where Chris was been treated. She sat on a chair provided to her with the men who had brought Chris to the hospital.
They sat at her left side, each lost in their own thoughts. They had known Chris for a very long time so if they loose him it will leave a big hole in their hearts.
Skyler as well didn't say anything as she rested her head at the wall behind her with her eyes closed, her clothes were stained with Chris blood as she had tried to stop him from bleeding to death.
" Skyler " someone called her.
She opened her eyes to see Kendricks coming towards her, he was in his usual shirt and trouser.
" Mr Ken, what are you doing here " she said.
" How is Chris doing "
" He's been treated, he lost so much blood "
" What did the doctor says "
" He said he had broken a few bones in his body but he will be fine " Skyler answered as the tears she had been holding dropped from her eyes
" Hey don't cry, he's going to be alright " Kendricks sat on the chair and hugged her patting her back.
" He has gone through a lot "
" Yeah, he will be fine "
At the same time one of the nurse came to meet them where they sat.
" Can I see him now " Skyler said as she saw the nurse approaching them.
" Yes ma'am, you can go in now " the nurse said and Skyler Immediately got up from the chair she sat as she and Kendricks went inside the ward Chris was in.
They saw Chris laying on the hospital bed with so many devices fixed on his body. He had an oxygen tube on his face.
The only sound heard was the beeping sound coming from the machine.
Skyler wiped the tears from her eyes as she stared at Chris in silence. Kendricks held her shoulder as he too stared at Chris.
" See, he's going to be fine " he said to her and at the same time Skyler's stomach growled angrily.
She hadn't eaten anything since morning as Chris had showed up at her doorstep, she was feeling hungry but she tried to ignore it.
" You should eat " Kendrick said.
" I'll eat later "
" No, eat now "
" Okay " Skyler said as she knew Kendricks won't like it if she disobeyed him.
Skyler left the hospital and went to buy what to eat as she wasn't home to cook for herself. It was already late in the evening.
She saw a shop nearby and bought some snacks and drink. After she finished eating, she decided to stroll a little to free her mind and not to think of Chris.
Her phone vibrated in her pocket, she took it out and saw that Maya was calling her.
" Hello "
" Hey Sky, I'm at the front of your door can you open up please "
" Oh, I'm not home actually "
" Uh, where are you "
" I'm at the hospital "
" Huh.... What happened, are you hurt "
" No, not me it's Chris "
" What happened to him "
" He... He got shot "
" What ???? How ? Is he alright, hope it isn't that serious "
" He's alright, but the doctor says he got few broken bones in his body "
" Oh my God "
" Yeah "
" Which hospital is that "
" Are you coming "
" Yes "
" Evergreen....Evergreen hospital "
" Alright, I'm on my way "
" Okay "
When the call ended, Skyler walked back to the hospital so Maya won't come looking for her.
Just as she got back to the hospital, not long after she saw Maya coming out of a taxi and running towards her after she finished paying.
When Maya got to where Skyler was waiting for her at the entrance, she gave her a tight hug.
" Where is he " she asked and Skyler took her to the ward Chris was in. They got inside to see Kendricks just finished talking to the doctor.
Maya rushed over to where Chris was with Skyler following her behind " This is not good, someone planned on him "
" Yes, uhmm this is Mr Ken " Skyler introduced Maya.
" Oh, sorry sir I didn't see you there " Maya said apologetically.
" It's alright "
" Kendricks Easton " Kendricks said.
" I'm Maya, nice to meet you sir "
" Me too, you must be friends with Chris "
" Yes, I just got to know about what happened to him and I rushed over to see him "
" That's nice of you "

LUCIFER'S MANSION
Lucifer and Jared as usual sat at the dinning table to have their dinner. Lucifer didn't say anything and ate his food silently.
Jared as usual always had something to say " I thought you said she texted you while you were at the meeting ".
" She did "
" Then why are you moody "
" She didn't reply my text "
" Maybe she was busy or something "
" Hmm " Lucifer hummed.
" Just give her some time "
" Haven't I given her enough "
" Maybe she needs more time "
" Jared "
" Yes "
" What do you think I should do "
Jared was surprised that Lucifer was asking him such question.
" I...well..... I " Jared wanting to saying something with a proud face stopped talking when Lucifer's phone rang.
" She is calling me " Lucifer said as his face lit up.
