Chapter 4 Strangers

The vroom sound of a truck could be heard as its expedited down the quiet street of the city of Australia.

At the back of the truck, two girls were being tied with twisted ropes, one with blonde hair and the other girl with Black hair. The girl on blonde hair was sobbing, as the truck keeps driving them to unknown destination, while the other girl with black hair, had no tears in her eyes, neither was she scared.

"Can you stop crying?" The girl with black hair said. "I can't help it Megan, Where're they taking us to? She asked with tears - Megan was the name of the girl with black hair, skinny and have a very slender waist. Megan sighs and patted her friend.

"I don't know Sophia, but I guess is not somewhere bad". And Sophia looks at her.

"How do you know that? You don't even know where we're going, why did you insist we steal from them? We got caught and now we're being taking to a place we don't know" Sophia said with a crying voice.

Sophia and Megan are friends. They met two years ago in Australia and they became friends after Megan saved Sophia from some thugs who tried to rape her.

Sophia is the weakling kind of girl, she cries over little things while Megan was so different from Sophia. She's not a weakling and she's good at Taekwondo and Judo, she knows how to defend herself from anyone that tries to mess with her. And having a weak friend like Sophia, she was always there for her.

They're being captured by the men driving the truck, because they tried to steal from them, and it was all Megan's idea that they should steal from the truck. Being an orphan, Megan use stealing as a means of living, she steals anything that comes her way, and she also dragged Sophia to her world of stealing. Megan has always been good when it comes to stealing.

She's an expert in it, but unfortunately for her, today wasn't her lucky day, she was caught and now being taken to a place she has no idea of. "I'm sorry Sophia" Megan apologize to Sophia.

She was feeling guilty, since she was the one who suggested they should steal from the truck, despite Sophia's warnings not to. Sophia didn't say a word to her, she was just crying. Megan sighs as her eyes scans the cartons that was tied up with them, but she couldn't figure out what was in these cartons.

*Are these cocaines? silver... Or probably money?* Her subconscious mind asked. Being a curious person, she was trying so hard to figure out what was really in these cartons, but she couldn't move, since she was tied up. She gave up after few attempt of trying, and looks at Sophia. She really felt bad for dragging innocent Sophia into this mess. If she'd knew they were going to be caught, she won't have suggested they should steal from the truck. Where the truck was taking them to, was what Megan couldn't pinpoint.

"I'm sorry Sophia" Megan apologize again, but Sophia glared at her.

"If something happens to me, it's going to be your fault Megan" Sophia said still crying again. And her tears made Megan feel more guilty, and she'd wish she knew where the truck was going.

Actually the trunk was heading back to Russia and to the clan that belongs to Axton. The drivers were sent by Axton to go to Australia for a criminal business. And the cartons Megan was trying to check contained cocaines.

The drivers were about heading back to Russia after their business in Australia was done, and that was when they caught both Megan and Sophia trying to steal from them. Not knowing what to do with both Megan and Sophia, they decided to take the girls with them back to Russia, so the heartless Mafia can give a final verdict of what they were going to do with both Megan and Sophia. The truck successfully arrived in the clan, and the drivers of the truck brought Megan and Sophia out from it, holding them tightly.

"Let go off me. I'm not going to run away, I don't even know where I am" Megan said trying to break free from the grip of the man holding her. One thing about Megan is that she's very stubborn - a fearless girl, who's a hard nut to crack. And no doubt very small. And her small stature often make people think she's a teenager, not knowing she's already in her late 20's. As for Sophia, she was just too scared to say a word, so she willing followed, although she was crying silently. "I thought cocaines were suppose to be delivered, so why're two girls here?" Ace asked looking at Megan who was reluctantly following the men that brought them to Russia.

"Maybe they were brought as sex slaves" Gatsby said. He was with Ace, watching what was going on. "I doubt that Gatsby. The boss hates woman" Came Tornado voice. Actually the three of them were in charge of watching the premises of the clan tonight, and the were on their duties, when they saw Megan and Sophia being brought out from the truck.

"So why did the truck drivers bring them here?" Gatsby asked curiously. "I'm sure they won't last a day here, the Boss will definitely kill them" Tornado said. And Ace didn't uttered a word, he just sighed.

Fallon's heels made clattering sounds as she enters Axton's suites. She's a lover of heels, most especially the thin sharp heels, she can fights on heels without staggering.

"What do you want?" Axton's deep voice asked. Fallon mustered up courage before speaking.

"The truck containing the cocaines have arrived in the clan" Fallon said.

"You already know what to do with it, right? So what's the point of coming here?" Axton asked, now looking at her.

Fallon almost lost balance when her eyes came in contact with his scary cold eyes. She quickly bowed her head.

"Strangers were brought by the truck drivers" She rushly said, due to fear.

"Strangers?" Axton asked, furrowing his eyebrows
