"What is Lana's greatest desire in the future ?" Charlotte asked softly, looking down to look at the sweet face of her little princess who was lying on her thigh
The mother and daughter are now enjoying time together under a shady tree on a vast expanse of grass
The pretty round eyes that were exactly like her were now staring at Charlotte, then a thoughtful face was seen there
"Lana ? Lana wants to grow up and make mom and dad proud of Lana, Lana wants to be a strong kid to take care of you, Lana who will always take care of mother if mother's hair is gray and mother is old, Lana just wants to live full of happiness with father and mother"
Charlotte fell silent, listening to all the words of the child, who answered the question with those sparkling eyes, making the beautiful woman thin her lips, slightly bent down to kiss lovingly Lana's forehead
"Is that so ? But sorry, I can't accompany Lana to grow up, and see Lana living well with Lana's partner someday"
Lana blinked her eyes, staring in confusion because of the mother's words, but Charlotte just stared at her gently, as well as the affection that emanated clearly from the mother's gaze
"There are a lot of people who love Lana, Lana has to live happily huh ? Lana also has to take good care of me, I only have Lana"
Little Lana chose to sit on her, staring at the mother really did not understand
"What does mother mean.... ?"
But not the answer she got, Charlotte now actually stood up, slightly lowered to cupper the cheek of her daughter's kingpin, and gave a kiss full of affection on Lana's forehead long enough.
Swiping her cheeks for a moment, before Charlotte turned her back slowly, away from Lana who was now staring pushyly and confused at her mother, and trying to reach Charlotte's slowly almost lost body behind the shining white light that had appeared out of nowhere
"Lana's dear mother, remember that well".

The white room smelled of drugs and it was silent, only the sound of a heart-rate detector there
Leonard, who had just placed a plastic parcel containing apples on the nightstand, was immediately distracted, when he saw a movement from the bed, how the beautiful round bead seemed to start opening from its closed
the young man immediately approached, staring with relief at the moment he made sure was right, Lana had woken up, and now seemed to be focusing her gaze.
"You're conscious ?"
Leonard's heavy voice rang out, making the sweet girl immediately turn her gaze away, looking at Leonard with a furrowed forehead, then trying to sit up, Leonard swiftly helped Lana sit comfortably with a pillow
"sister Leo ? This where's ?"
"The hospital..."
"The hospital ?" Lana rolled her gaze around, sure enough, she was in that all-white room, with an infusion hose attached to her wrist "why am I here?" Looking back at Leonard, he asked the young man to answer all his confusion
"you, don't remember ?"
"Snuggle!"
Lana was shocked, when Leonard had pulled her into a hug, and immediately ducked down near a table blocked by a pillar, which had been placed in her arms, the young man's hand deftly pulled out a weapon from behind his suit pocket
"A - what's going on ?"
The noisy sounds of the guests scattering in panic made the atmosphere even more chaotic, the people in black robes, with masks covering part of their faces seemed to be in the large hall, firing in any direction, causing some innocent people to be injured by the hot lead.
Leonard looked at Lana who looked frightened, the little fingers in his grasp felt trembling, he rubbed gently to give calmness, with his left hand still holding the weapon and vigilance that he fixed
"Stay with me, don't be afraid of Lana"
with Leonard expertly aiming and starting to return fire, with himself still protecting Lana in his arms, the girl could only be bowed with both hands covering her ears, she trembled really, really, which commoner is not frightened when in the midst of a terrible shootout
Chris now joined, he immediately took a position behind a large pillar, and immediately pulled out his weapon to return the shots
"Claire send Aland, we need help !"
Said to the figure of Claire who was connected to the earpiece, but from the connection where Claire was also heard some bullet shots
"Damn it, I can't, Aland and I are in the sport taking care of the ones out here, David and Eric will be here soon, hang on and keep protecting Lana"
Chris growled in annoyance, quickly replacing his depleted bullets, he rolled, and re-launched a shot at the opponent, leaping swiftly towards Leonard being, he rolled over, glanced for a moment at Lana who was on the cover of Leonard
"Where's Mr Jeffrey and his wife ?"
Leonard asked in between his focus still shooting at the opponent, Chris was the same as his eyes peeked into all the halls, a bit difficult because people were busy running around blocking the vision.
"There !"
Leonard turned to the direction where Chris was looking, Jeffrey and Charlotte who seemed cornered by someone who was pointing a gun at the two
"Leo, Chris we're in. "
it was David, through the earpiece he said, and before long the figure of David and Eric appeared nimble and soon joined with Leonard and Chris
"David protect me, I'll protect Mr. Jeffrey and his wife"
"Dear Lord Jeffrey, the great, very successful businessman, wouldn't your name and your wife be even more famous if your article of death had gotten into the news ?"
The stranger spoke with a laugh of sarcasm, moving forward towards the couple, Jeffrey stared in anger at the stranger, he had expected that at this event there would be something surprising
"What if even your beloved daughter's life, I also destroy "
"Don't you dare touch Lana !" Charlotte said, Charlotte will never forgive anyone who dares to tease her beloved daughter, a belittling laugh resounded, saying, the masked foreign face was very dear to Jeffrey because he could not see the face directly
Dor !
the man dodged well, when Chris arrived and immediately shot a shot right at the vase on his side, making the stranger step back, looking at Chris in annoyance
"Stay away from those bastards !"
Chris went forward, re-directed the shot that was successfully avoided, and now gave a reply to a shot that was also well avoided Chris.
"Don't bother !"
"Of course I'd be happy to interrupt if you dare touch Mr. Jeffrey's family"
Chris intended to re-attach the shot, but he was slightly distracted, because two shots at once were in the direction of him, making him immediately roll backwards with a distance away from Jeffrey and Charlotte
"Akh !"
"Jeffrey ! "
"Dad !"
His eyes fester, he cursed, seeing how Jeffrey who fell down due to a bullet that managed to nest in his chest was slumped, just when Lana who is now looking for the whereabouts of his parents, who are now looking for the whereabouts of his parents, and saw it right in front of his eyes
the stranger screeched cynically, aiming right at Lana who was running hastily towards Jeffrey who was drenched in blood, without knowing that the hot lead slide was heading towards him
"Lana !"
"Lana get away !"
time was silent, both Leonard and Chris froze in their place, and David who was immediately pensive to see it
"I - mom ?"
Lana even felt her throat dry just to make a sound, staring at the mother who was now hugging her tightly like a protector, Lana turned her gaze towards her own hands where it felt wet, soaking, sure enough there was blood there, not blood but property
Charlotte was shot right in the back, and unfortunately the bullet penetrated deeply
"Lana it's okay ?"
Charlotte was even still worried about her daughter's condition, despite the pain she felt today, not missing the blood that also flowed from the corner of her lips
"Mother.no h - hiks mother"
Charlotte gave her smile, rubbed lovingly on her daughter's cheeks with trembling hands and cooling down, her eyes wetly staring at Lana who was now crying while hugging her, it felt his energy to stand was getting thin
Just as Jeffrey has been shot and sees Lana running towards them, Charlotte sees the stranger aiming a shot at her daughter, leaving Charlotte without a second thought to immediately run and grab Lana in a hug, allowing herself to be the shield from the hot lead so as not to hurt her beloved daughter, enough Charlotte saw Jeffrey who was now groaning in pain due to being shot, not for Lana
Dor !
Leonard gave several shots, two of which he successfully aimed at the shoulder and leg of the stranger, who was now groaning in pain, but still be able to escape quickly because of the help of someone who came out of nowhere, brought him nimble through the window, never had time for Leonard and Chris also David to pursue, he said, charlotte and Jeffrey are worried right now
Leonard immediately draws closer to Lana who is still hugging Charlotte's weakened body, trying to calm Lana down and give her some distance to take over Charlotte's body, but the sweet one rebelled, she hugged Charlotte's body
While David and Chris immediately approached Jeffrey, giving first aid so that the blood flowing to stop slowly
eric is busy telling the current situation to someone who needs to know
"Claire quickly call an ambulance, Mr. Jeffrey and Miss Charlotte are hurt !"
Leonard speaks quickly to Claire through her earpiece, with a hand trying to stop the bleeding on Charlotte
"the bullet's shit hit his arterial tissue, deserved so much blood" he said when he realized that the bullet hit Charlotte's fatal spot, but Lana's mother actually held Leonard's hand and stopped his movements, shook his head weakly and stared alternately at Leonard and Lana
"Leonards... Take good care of my daughter.. Also please make sure my husband is safe, ak - I'm not hhh—!"
Lana shook her head, her face looked very messed up
"Mom don't leave Lana, I'm holding the torch soon the ambulance is coming, mauu "
But unfortunately Charlotte is not that strong to withstand the pain that gnaws at her, due to a bullet that penetrates so deeply.
"Mother.... "
the tears were dripping down without a cue, the painful memory of it actually took her a hit, coinciding with David and Eric coming into Lana's room, Leonard immediately pulled softly Lana into the embrace, and then pulled Lana in, letting Lana cry out in between her conscious self after falling unconscious for a full day after the events that claimed her mother's life
As well as making the father is now in a coma and in a critical time.
