Episode 5

It's dark. Faint blue lamps are the only light sources, and the blue lamps are two meters away from each other, making the path look so dark.

I must be very cautious. One wrong step, then I may break my ankle, because of the medium-size but super sharp rocks. Time is 6:25pm.

As I'm two meters away from the main compound, I heard a serious conversation through whispers.

"We have no right to punish her at this moment. We're not yet sure if she's really studying."

"But, we can just make her admit it. And if she does, we can send her to the jail of our compound for two years to stop her from studying."

I gasped. I know they're talking about me, and they're gon'na stop me from studying? No way! But, I can't quit this gang either. My dad advised me to join here before he died. So I can't just disobey him. Besides, gang leaders will kill me if I quit the gang.

"And what if she doesn't admit it?"

"Yeah, you have a point. She's good at lying."

"Hmmm... I guess we still have to continue searching her at Three Myhtical Crowns Academy."

What!? So they already know where I'm studying? And continue searching? So that means they're already searching for me!?

Oh no. This is bad.

"I guess she's in a disguise so none of us will know her instantly."

And they even had an idea that I'm in a disguise.

I shuddered when I felt a cold hand on my back. My heart's beating fast.

"Hey bestfriend. Long time, no see."

I turned, smiling at Jessa. She's my bestfriend, but she's not studying. She owns a famous company of fashionable dresses. I own companies too, but no one knows, except you guys. I'm always in a disguise. From school, from my gang, from myself. I've never been true to myself. How can I? If my current surname isn't my real one in the first place.

"Go inside. You're going to be late."

I checked my watch and it's one minute before 6:30..

*creek* I looked inside to see the other 3 leaders\, who ranked higher than I did. Their faces are covered with exquisite mask. I never saw their faces. Their identities are complete mysteries\, except their names. They're using their real names. Me\, on the other hand\, don't have any face-cover. I don't like it. It's hot and can cause discomfort. But I use a screen name\, which is Kylie.

"Welcome Kylie." Says Dwight, the number one leader with a white mask on. He looks so manly, though the white color does contrast that.

White signifies being number one. I'm guessing he's a gentleman in the inside.

The second leader wears a black mask. His has specks of gold in it, intricately designed to utmost perfection. The gold seems real. He's looks hot... erm. He's the most mysterious among the three of them. I guess he's arrogant. I just guessed.

The third leader wears blue. I guess he's not a gentle man. And I think there's a funny guy behind that mask.
