Standing on the outside of the room, I could hear three people talking. One of them was Tatsuya. I wanted to barge in that very moment but held myself back. I was even more curious about their plan.
"Finally, I got this bitch in my hands. She had me follow her for years. Who does she think she is, some lost princess of a destroyed kingdom?"
"Hey, Tat dude. What took you so long to capture this one? You captured beauties far beautiful than this one within days?"
"Yeah, I also want to know that. What was the reason?"
"Don't start that topic again. This bitch fell in love with that bastard sis-con Saitou. I did so many thing for her, proposed her, spread false rumors about Saitou being sis-con, forced him to go away from her but she stills keeps talking about him. In fact, she didn't even want to come here. I brought her here saying Saitou called her here. What a humiliation!"
"Let's drop this matter. I can't hold myself anymore"
"You, sex-crazed idiot!"
"So, what if I am! After today, she will became ours. She and her father can't go against us."
"Yeah, we can take her anytime once we get the video clip"
"Yeah, we will also be able to save our friends who were captured by this bitch's dad"
"Anyway, let's start the fun"
"Yep, I will go set the camera up. You guys come help me"
"Will do"
....
Meanwhile, my mind had gone blank after Tatsuya betrayed them. He didn't even look at us like people. But, the most shocked I was when I heard that Ichika loved me. Which means I was the one who got the wrong idea! What the heck had I been doing for the past few years?
Sadness, regret and anger started welling up in my heart. At this point, I had already forgotten all my physical pain long. I was walking back until I reached the wall of the opposite part of the corridor. When I hit the hall on the other side of the corridor, something happened. My mind got very clear. All those emotions which were rampaging in my heart seemed to disappear from my heart. In their place, a new emotion was born, the wish to protect. At this moment, I clearly heard a voice in my head,
"Protect her with everything you have. Run to the door and smash it. Don't worry, you can do it"
I didn't doubt that voice at all. Normally, I should have been scared to my bones. But that voice seemed very dear as if it was so close to my heart. So, I accepted the advice of the voice and started running. Thankfully, the corridor was quite wide so I was getting quite a big runaway. I toke a full breath and focused all my strength at my legs and ran as fast as possible. Just as I am about to collide with the door, I jump and turn my body to be at 90 degree angle with the door. I hit the door. I thought the door would not break. But to my surprise, the door flew away as if it was not attached to the frame.
..................
Meanwhile, inside the room, Tatsuya and those two guys were setting up camera when suddenly the door came flying toward them. Two of them were not in the door trajectory so, they evaded safely but the third one was not so lucky. He was directly in front of the door and got hit with the full speed of the door. He was sent flying and only stopped when he hit the wall and collapsed. The other two were shocked to their cores about what just happened. But when they looked at the big open space where the doors, they saw someone who they never thought they would meet that day, me. Tatsuya was the most shocked. He could not understand how I found that place.
"Saitou, what are you doing here?"
"Taking revenge"
Hearing this, their faces became pale with anger.
"You bastard, you think you can fight against us. You are not worthy of fighting me"
"Yeah, I, tatsuya, is enough to take care of a weakling like you"
"Is that so? Then come at me. I want to see what you can do to me"
"If you have a death-wish, I will fulfill it. Take this."
Then, he dashed towards me. If it was before, It was impossible for me to be so this courageous. But, from the moment I heard that voice, it felt like all physical power had increased a lot. Anyway, I held Tatsuya's charging hand with one hand and use the other to hit him back. He flew away toward the standing gangster, crushes into him and both flew away. They did not stop until they hit the wall and stops moving. I stopped paying attention towards them and walk to the bed where Ichika was sleeping. Seeing that she was sleeping peacefully, I heave a sigh of relief, like a big stone had been taken up from my chest. I cannot explain how relieved I was with only words.
