"Too bad I am not the one who going to end your life. You should be grateful" said Gin with a smirk plaster on his face to the betrayer of the organization. The betrayer- he just stands in the middle of the room as he knows that he can't run from them anymore. The betrayer is totally stuck there as he stands there without making any move. Sherry who currently next to Gin, look at the betrayer.

The woman finds the statement that Gin said is weird. She wonders what does he mean by that. She thought that maybe Gin wanted Vodka to end his life. Instead, what Gin said next make her shock.

"This woman is going to end your life" Gin said as he hand his gun to her. Sherry looks at him with disbelieve. As for her, she doesn't afraid if someone got killed in front of her. Yet, when she got asked by someone to kill a person- she needs time for her to prepare.

She never takes someone life in her whole life. She doesn't feel like she's ready yet to do such task. She actually didn't expect that Gin will ask her to do such thing. As for her, she did think that Gin knew that she wasn't ready to kill someone. She doesn't want to stain her own hand with blood yet.

She thought that the assassination task is not suit for her. Her eyes find its way to look at Gin. She needs to confirm whether is she really the one who going to kill the betrayer. Gin's eyes are clear for her to understand that time. He's not joking about his remark earlier. Without a doubt- he really did mean that she's the one who going to kill the betrayer of the organization. The woman takes a deep breath. She still feels that she's not ready.

"What? Hesitate?" Gin said to her with a mocking look. She hates it when Gin did that. She feels that Gin underestimate her. Sherry looks right at his face as she slowly smirks.

"Ridiculous, with pleasure, Gin" the woman said as she take the gun from his hand. She makes up her mind. This going to be the first person that she kills. Sherry eyed the betrayer of the organization. She lifts her arm as she aims at the betrayer's head. Somehow, her hand did tremble as she getting ready to take someone's life. She's not ready to do that.

"Well, goodbye" she said as she pulls the trigger. She wanted to look cold- to make Gin not underestimate her.

"Let's go" Gin said as he walk out of the room. Sherry looks at the body. It's the day- the day that she killed someone. Her hands already stain with blood. Even if she washes it away, she can't remove her dirty hand- it's the only permanent thing that she can't remove. She has a hand of a killer. Somehow, she really did feel guilty and regretful. As always, she knows she can do nothing about it. Slowly, she turns around and leaves the body alone in the room.

As she finally arrives at the car, she sits in the back passenger seat. Gin enters the car, beside the driver seat. Vodka starts the engine as they leave the spot.

"Sherry" the silver-haired man said.

"What is it, Gin?" The woman finds her courage to talk to him.

"You did hesitate to kill him. I can see you well" Gin said to her.

"It was my first time taking people life. I'm not like you who killed countless people before. I'm not an assassin either" She said to him with honesty.

"Well, you did great for your first time" He said. The woman doesn't know if he truly means that statement to her.

"I will make you a heartless woman soon" He said to her as she is sure that he will make her kill countless people soon in the future. She's not sure if she is actually ready for that.

But, she already got her hand tainted with blood- the hand of her's is a hand of a killer. Stop murdering people doesn't change her tainted hand. Guess she just follow his order.

••••••••••

Haibara awake from her unconsciousness- with her eyes still close. The dream- she hated the dream which was also her past. She found herself in a sitting position and she can feel that her hand at her back- her hand got tied at a pole. As soon as she recovered what just happening, her eyes quickly flick open. As her eyes adjust itself to focus on the surrounding, she feels that she want quickly to disappear from the place.

She feels shocked and she can feel her body tremble as soon as she sees who's in front of her. It is Gin- who just realized the girl that he waited the most finally open her eyes. Gin slowly stand up and walk in her direction. Gin squat down to make their eyes are on the same level. Haibara tries to avoid his very own dangerous eyes to her but she knows she can't do it. Instead, she keeps her gaze on his eyes- the eyes, it's just the same as the dream that she had.

"I don't want to play around any more little kid. What's your relation with Sherry?" Gin said to her face. Guess the man never change the slightest bit since their last meeting.

"I- I don't know what are you talking about" Haibara find her strength to answer his question. Gin smirks as he lifts her chin to make better access for him to look at her eyes.

"Don't play dumb you little one. Tell me or I'll kill you as well as your friends" Gin said again to her with a smirk on his face. The shrunken woman just wants to tell him that she is Sherry- but she can't just reveal her identity just like that.

"I- I don't know who is Sherry. You might have found the wrong person. Don't kill us" Haibara said again to the man with pleading eyes.

"Very well, try to hide while you can. Vodka kill them" Gin said as he stared at the girl's eyes with a smirk.

Haibara start to panic. When Gin said that, she knows it's going to happen- they are going to kill them. The kids still don't wake up yet. She can't let them kill the kids. They have nothing to do with their problems- her problems. As Vodka aims his guns at Ayumi's head, Haibara opens her mouth.

"W-wait!--"
