The cars stopped moving immediately they got to the mouth of the bridge that led to the forest, and everyone came out, staring at the weak bridge.
“Whose money is in the vaults?” Terrius asked.
“Godfather Escobar and late father worked for it, they did the exchange in this same forest, but they were cornered by Enzo, so they had to build the vault with the help of Lave’re, godfather Escobar’s girlfriend, they kept it in and an alien installed the door, it has been there since then” Rosario replied.
“Then Lave’re should be here” Pandora said.
“Here” a female voice replied, and they turned back to see Lave’re walking towards them with a backpack containing arrows.
“Shall we?” She smiled simply, and they all faced the bridge again.
At once, they started walking through it, and it kept shaking on their feets.
Before they could even get to the other side, two floor members fell off immediately they stepped on weak parts of the bridge, they disappeared into the fog below it, forever.
They got to the other side after exactly five minutes, and Lave’re got to work on the door.
She communicated with the lab, and with the help of Pierce and Lush, she was able to open it after three trials.
“Can we go in now?” Hellcat asked.
“Yes, but avoid walking under trees like I said, it’s dangerous, there are traps” Lush replied.
“Split” Rosario commanded, and they started splitting.
Nightingale went with Bullet
Terrius went with Pandora
Rapunzel went with Clyde.
Mary is to go with Rosario.
Hellcat and Lave’re are together.
“Alert the others if you find the vault, and if you don’t, everyone must come back here within the next fifty five minutes” Rosario said.
“Yes boss!”
The numerous floor members distributed themselves in groups too, and each group went their ways.

“Can’t believe we met again like this” Lave’re said as she walked their path with Cat.
“Me neither, but you must be a witch” Hellcat replied, looking around.
“Why?”
“You still remain the same since eighteen years ago, old age is not your thing” Hellcat as, and Lave’re laughed dryly, avoiding a tree in front of her.
“You don’t regret doing that to the boss lady?, I heard about everything” Lave’re asked.
“I lost my friendship with Rosa, and the boss lady h@tës me, of course I regret” Hellcat replied, and Lave’re sighed, jumping over a stunt.
“What about you?, Why did you leave godfather Escobar?” Hellcat asked.
“He committed a great sin, to the twins” Lave’re replied, and Hellcat was about to ask what sin when they heard a silent roar behind.
They stopped and looked at each other, then they turned back slowly to see a lion, looking so hungry and angry.
“Sh|t” Hellcat muttered.
“Run!” Lave’re replied hastily, and they both took to their heels.
The beast did the same, chasing them hotly as they ran, jumping holes and obvious traps.
As the chase got faster, the lion got angrier, and that seems to be boosting it’s energy.
Hellcat’s leg got pulled by a trap and she fell on her face.
Lave’re stopped and looked back.
“Stand the f*ck up!”
“I can’t!, My leg is trapped!” Hellcat shouted back as the lion kept coming at her.
Lave’re got her arrow and set it quickly, sending one to the lion’s body, but it kept running, so she targeted it’s eye this time, but the hungry thing was so determined to get it’s food by all means.
It kept running, and when Lave’re got the third arrow, Hellcat reached for her gun, and they shot at the same time.
The arrow got the lion’s second eye, and the bullet entered it’s mouth when it roared.
It came to a standstill before falling mightily on the ground.
“Sh|t!, That was huge!” Hellcat breathed.
Lave’re took a deep breath too.

40 MINUTES LEFT**
“Clyde what would you do if you meet your little Preet again?” Rapunzel asked Clyde who was behind him.
“I found her already” he replied, and her heart skipped beats immediately.
“Huh?”
“Yeah, in the clan” he replied, and her eyes widened.
“Who?” She asked shockingly.
“Not now, let’s continue our search” he replied and resumed walking.
She started following slowly till they got to a d@mn cold part of the forest, the coldness is suspicious so they both stopped.
“What’s this unusual coldness” Clyde muttered, and a loud turbulent noise made them look at a particular direction in a stupefied manner..
“What the f*ck!!!” Rapunzel shouted as a mighty snake appeared.
This is even bigger than the ones in the valley of snakes at the empire, it’s huge!
“Guns can’t clear this” Clyde said, looking at the terrifying creature awfully.
“Let’s try” Rapunzel replied, getting her gun
She shot at the snake but the skin threw back the bullet, and Clyde had to pull her back so it wouldn’t hit her.
The bullet rammed into a tree, and more snakes started appearing till they became surrounded.
“We’re f*cking dead” Clyde said.
“We broke into their turf, so escaping is almost impossible right now” Rapunzel said fearfully.
“Not completely” Clyde said and brought out a smoke bomb which he threw down.
The smokes covered them, and he held Rapunzel’s hand as they started running out of the place, but Rapunzel’s leg suddenly got stuck in a trap, and she fell.
“Rapunzel!” Clyde shouted, wanting to come back for her.
“No!, No Clyde!, Go!” She shouted.
She was already crying.
“Rapunzel” he muttered as the snakes surrounded her.
The smokes cleared off already.
“I love you” she cried, and when Clyde opened his mouth to talk, the mightiest snake started swallowing her from the legs.
“Rapunzel!!!” He screamed in horror.
“Go!!!!” She shouted, and Clyde felt tears wetting his eyes as the snake swallowed her completely.
The others faced him, but he ran out of the territory while they chased.

30MINUTES LEFT**
“You seriously won’t stop snapping pictures and making videos?” Nightingale complained for the uptenth time since she started journeying with Bullet.
“You know I can’t do without it so shut the f*ck” Bullet replied, continuing his video.
Nightingale shook her head and sighed
“I wonder when we’re gonna find this darn vault, Lave’re built it but she forgot the location?, I can’t believe that woman” she said.
“But seriously this forest is beautiful” Bullet said.
He was so engrossed with his video that he didn’t notice when he started walking under a tree
Nightingale’s eyes widened when she saw him.
“Bullet!” She shouted, and his eyes widened too, he threw down the phone and tried running out but a rope suddenly wrapped on his neck and pulled him up, hanging him automatically.
Nightingale ran out of the place and never stopped racing till she got far, then she rested her palms on her knees, breathing hard.
“Füçk, Knife smelt death on that idiot, he’s gone” she muttered, looking up.
The first thing her eyes caught was THE VAULT!
It’s right in front of her, she saw the door!
“Found it!” She said, tapping her bud to inform others.
****
“Vault found!” Nightingale’s voice filtered through Rosario and Mary’s buds during their walk, and they stopped walking.
“Lush, calculate the location kilometers and give coordinates to everyone” Rosario said, looking at Mary.
“2 kilometers…to the west” Lush said.
“Let’s go” Rosario said, and Mary nodded once, but she could see a bullet coming that way through Rosario’s eyes.
“Ross!” She gasped, jumping on him.
They both went down together, and the bullet hit a tree.
A loud laughter followed from three different voices, and they both stood quickly.
Lucifer, Jeff and Gucci stood in front of them, and Rosario smiled.
“Wow” he smiled, and Lucifer laughed.
“You don’t deserve that smile right now, cos you’re dying soon” he said venomously.
Rosario suddenly heard the the rustling of something behind his ear.
He slowly turned his head to behold the greatest shock of his life.
Mary was pointing her gun directly at his head with a poisonous smile on her face.
“Destroy his f*cking head baby! ” Gucci shouted.
“Our own Preet Marcus” Lucifer smiled, and Rosario’s eyes widened.
“Donna….”
