The tragedy was uncovering to be beyond the surface, beyond what anyone could anticipate. But when it did unfold eventually, the things in the past which confused and boggled us now turned out to be crystal clear. However... Even after clarifying everything, it was now too late for us to fix it.

"Wing!" Brian exclaimed loudly as he pressed his teeth hard and burst out,"Don't you understand the situation you are in now?"
"……" Wing remained silent for a brief moment before she earnestly replied from the other side of the call,"Brian, I will be really careful, please do not worry about me."
"No, you definitely cannot handle it! I can not emphasize it enough actually, don't you understand what a muddle you have gotten yourself into now?" Brian repeated the statement to drill his concern and anger through to the other side. As he remained connected via call with Wing, he accelerated and sped his way through the route to get there as fast as he could. He also tried to stop Wing on the phone. But he was just like ants on a hot pan, and there was nothing he could do about it.
"I know and I understand everything very well, please just calm down, Brian." Wing consoled him in a calm and composed tone unlike Brian and went on,"I promise you this, I will not get hurt. And you know it too very well that I am capable of handling the matter, and hold everything together until you come. It will be fine."
"Wing! If something, anything unfortunate happens to you, I will never be able to forgive you for the rest of my life! " After saying that, he ended the call abruptly without waiting for a response and focused on driving as fast as he possibly could. His chiseled face had a cold and indifferent expression while his eagle-like and inky eyes seemed like he was prepared to kill people. At that moment, he looked like a devil incarnate just marinating in his anger and helplessness. He pressed down on the accelerator pedal down to the fullest and drove the car at its highest speed, he was still not content, making the vibe cold with tension and anger.

Molly was restrained by two men and dragged out of the factory. She struggled and cried out helplessly,"Just let me go... Please take him to the hospital fast... I beg of you, please, can you please just send him to the hospital... You can not injure and break his hand, I am begging you please, please, please! If you have any mercy you will listen to my plea. For the love of god, please stop this! Brian, you are such a horrible person!"
The two men who were pulling Molly remained calm and indifferent to Molly's constant struggle of begging and crying. Without pausing for a second, they just continued to drag her out of the factory. They were extremely strong and had great power, even as Molly struggled with all her might, she failed to escape from their crutches. The more she struggled and resisted their grip, the stronger and more piercing their grip on Molly got. Even while enduring such firm pressure, Molly was not thinking about the pain being inflicted on her arms. Instead, her mind was clouded by the last sight of Spark lying unconsciously in the pool of his own blood and his hand severely severed.
"Just let me go... Aha, aha.. Let me go..." Molly did not quit struggling. The moment she was being dragged out of the factory's gate, with all her remaining energy she struggled one last time. Maybe it was her sudden surge of powerful energy that let her free and lose from the two men's strong grip, or probably was their reckless moment of believing they were done pulling her out that led to her success in escaping.
The very split second of being free from their grip she ran away in the opposite direction with all her energy to not save her life but Spark. She ran away in haste out of pure instinct. She ran as fast as she possibly could, with only one driving force in her mind—to save Spark. She must find someone to save Spark and with that motivation she was unstoppable. She must rescue Spark at any cost.
