Maisie knew things were about to turn bad. She swung her leg at the person rushing at her, then pulled back the

fist coming at her with a strong hit.

At the stime, Maisie got a punch to her shoulder. She spun around and threw her attacker to the ground

with a quick over-the-shoulder toss.

‘Damn, she is tough,’ Zinnia thought as she watched Maisie get caught up in the fight. Maisie fought so hard that

she made everyone mad. No one paid attention to Zinnia.

“Maisie, just thirty more seconds!” Zinnia yelled, throwing powder into the air.

Police sirens blared from downstairs. Maisie was still fighting. She didn’t understand Zinnia’s plan, but she

trusted her. “Thirty seconds? No problem,’ Maisie thought.

Maisie saw her attackers wobbling and stumbling. As they swung punches at her, they fell down like dominoes

before she even raised her hand. Left standing alone among the fallen, Maisie was noticeable.

Zinnia looked at Neo. He had just sucker-punched Maisie. Zinnia kicked him hard twice, then poured a lot of

powder onto his face. Instantly, red rashes broke out all over his skin.

The police officers stood frozen, watching as people fell one after another like bowling pins. Maisie and Zinnia

were caught red-handed.

At the police station, an officer said, “So, Maisie, what happened? How did things get so crazy? You've got some

real skills-fighting all those people all by yourself.”

The officer looked at Zinnia and said, “That powder of yours really hits hard-knocked out so many in one shot.

Did you have a problem with Neo? You gave him a face full of rashes. He looks really scary now.”

After they gave their statements, the officers made small talk with the girls.

The police had checked the unconscious people. They were okay, just knocked out for a while. The only serious

injury was Neo, who had a bruised face and was beaten black and blue.

Since a big fight broke out, someone was sure to call the cops. So everyone involved was brought in to give their

side.

“If I wasn’t protecting Zinnia, | could've taken them all on myself,” Maisie said with a smug grin.

‘Wow, Zinnia is amazing. She just threw spowder, and bam. They all fell down like bowling pins,‘ she

thought.

“Just ssleeping powder. Want some? It's great for keeping creeps away,” Zinnia said, batting her big, doe-

like eyes at the female officer who asked her.

The female officer couldn’t help but smile. “Oh, sweetheart, | don’t need it. | can protect myself. You're just too

pretty. It’s only right for you to carry this for safety.” She felt her heart melt.

The female officer thought. ‘Thank goodness she was so quick-thinking. If not, they’d be in real trouble. That

powder worked perfectly, everyone else was still out cold.

Toby ran in, looking worried. “Are you both okay? Nothing bad happened, right?”

He thought to himself, ‘Please let these two little firecrackers be alright-otherwise, Yannis is going to be really

mad. But Yannis was already in a bad mood.

“Toby, you're here,” Zinnia said.

“Don’t worry, Toby. It’s nothing serious,” Maisie said as she fixed her wrinkled clothes and shook off the whole

thing like it was nothing.

Zinnia angrily said, “They kicked Maisie in the shoulder and even tried to hit her face!”

Toby said, “Please sit here for now. I'll go inside and talk with them. Mr. Perkins will be here soon.”

“Zinnia, go sit. | need to talk to Toby,” Maisie said. She was still mad about Neo's insults. If he wasn’t already

knocked out, she'd beat him up.

“Okay,” Zinnia said obediently and sat down.

Maisie and Toby went off to talk alone. Zinnia could only see Toby's face suddenly turn grim, and she couldn't

help but wonder what Maisie had said to make him look that way.

“You didn’t need to cin person,” Niles, the police chief, said nervously as he crushing over after getting

the call.

“Where are my girls?” Yannis asked loudly. He had been working late when suddenly he was told Maisie and

Zinnia were at the police station.

He called Toby and told him to go

first.

“Where are they?” Charlie asked nervously, holding a first aid kit.

Charlie and Yannis bumped into each other at a traffic light on their way hfrom work. When Charlie heard

the girls were in trouble, he decided to calong.

“They're inside giving their statements,” Niles said, wiping sweat from his face. “Someone kicked Maisie in the

shoulder. Then Zinnia threw spowder that knocked out a whole group of people. Neo still hasn't woken up.”

Since the initial report said Neo was attacking two girls, the officers knew Maisie and Zinnia were the victims.

and just took their statements normally.

Niles thought, ‘The guys who fell are still out cold, with bruised and beaten faces. Big, strong men-yet they

couldn’t handle two little girls. Honestly, it is a relief they didn’t win.

‘If anything happened to the two girls, they would be in serious trouble. But now that Maisie is hurt, Yannis won't

let this go easily. Neo is really an idiot. He just cback from abroad and already caused such a mess.

When Yannis heard Maisie got punched, his face turned icy. But when he learned Zinnia knocked out the whole

group with her powder, he relaxed a little.

Yannis looked toward the lounge where Zinnia sat safely, taking care of Maisie and not noticing them. He studied

her for a moment, making sure she was okay, then looked away.

“Yannis, I'll check on the girls,” Charlie said, his handsface dark when he heard Maisie was hurt.

Yannis nodded briefly.

Niles asked a subordinate to take Charlie to see Maisic.

“Mr. Perkins, everything's taken care of,” Toby said as he stepped out.

“About Neo-" Toby leaned in close, whispering to Yannis.

Niles stepped back, feeling like he'd fallen into a cold abyss. He saw Yannis’s face turn dark and cold, his deep

eyes sending a chill through everyone.

“Taketo see Neo,” Yannis said, in a calm but icy voice. Though he kept his tone flat, everyone understood:

the calmer he seemed, the worse it was for anyone who upset him.

Niles ordered, “Take Mr. Perkins to see Neo.”
