Zeri was wearing a hooded jacket. She was walking in a fast pace as if someone was chasing her. This was what she did every night. She was fired from her previous part time jobs because of her fear of males. So she was very thankful when she found this job. She also learned an effective way to avoid getting any attention from males.

Of course, she knew that it was still dangerous for her to walk alone at night like this but she had no choice. Gladly, she had her unrivalled speed as some sort of protection. As long as she wasn't overtaken by fear first, Zeri could always get away by running as fast as she could and no one would be able to catch her. This was why she was always on alert, always expecting some sort of trouble to come so she learned to be prepared at all times. This seemed like quite an effective strategy since trouble hadn't come looking for her yet since the day she started doing this.

However, Zeri could somehow feel that something was unusual tonight. She felt like she was being watched so she kept on looking back and was puzzled since she couldn't see anyone and strangely, she didn't sense any danger despite it feeling like someone was following her.

Looking confused, she suddenly halted and turned around when she was under a street light. But she saw no one. Instead, she saw a blue eyed stray cat behind her.

"Meow." As the cat made a sound, Zeri's stiff shoulders dropped and she sighed. She then slipped her hand inside her bag. Luckily, she found a piece of snack she forgot to eat because of sleeping at school for half a day. She then tore the bread into pieces before she squatted down and fed the brown cat with a smile on her face.

Meanwhile, inside a certain car a few meters away from her…

"I think she now thinks that the one following her was a cat. Haha, she's cute." When those words left Ken's mouth, Kira suddenly glared at him, surprising the young man. "What. I'm just saying the truth. She's kinda cute. Just look at her. She-"

"Shut up." Kira seemed to suddenly be in a bad mood that the clueless Ken just circled his eyes as he looked at Rei with words 'what did I do now?' flashing across his eyes. But Rei simply smiled and uttered the word 'idiot' silently.

At that moment, the car went quiet again until Kira saw some men, who all looked drunk, approach Zeri.

As he hastily walked towards her, the girl, who was busy feeding a cat seemed to finally notice the men approaching and she flinched. She quickly rose and was about to begin running away when she suddenly collided with someone.

The impact was strong and her stance was not in a favorable position so she fell on the ground.

Kira, who was taken by surprised, was pushed a few steps back but as soon as he saw her fall to the ground, he quickly moved to help her up.

"Are you okay?" he asked as he reached out his hand, while the girl's eyes widened when she saw him.

"A-android?" she uttered and the very word she said caused a vein on Kira's forehead to pop as he held her hand.

"Who are you calling an android? Huh?" he replied as he pulled her up.

"What are you doing here?" As Zeri was speaking, she heard the voice of men coming closer and she suddenly gripped Kira's hand.

However, just when Kira thought that he could finally act as her hero and tell her not to be afraid because he was now here to protect her, the girl suddenly let go of his hand and dashed away, leaving him.

His eyes turned wide as his hand was left hanging on air. Speechless, Kira's veins were about to pop again but to his surprise, the girl suddenly returned.

The corner of Kira's lips curved up, thinking that she came back to take shelter under the hero's arm but…

The first thing she did was… grab his wrist and pull him. "Come with me or you'll be beaten up here! Run! Faster!!"
