\'No. Not now. I can\'t leave just yet…\' Abigail thought to herself when she felt her pounding heart and throbbing head. It was the same signs and symptoms that she was going to leave Abigail\'s body.

She never imagined receiving a love confession from Nathan today. Furthermore, they were facing a life-threatening situation because of a certain sniper.

Their parachute got hit and Nathan lost control of its movement. They were falling very fast! Nathan was now aware of the great danger they were facing.

Nathan tried to remain calm. There was no way they could land properly without getting hurt. He prepared himself to protect Abigail. He hugged her body to shield her. But sooner or later, both of them would hit the ground.

\'Damn it!\' Nathan cursed inwardly. For the second time around, he was afraid… afraid of losing someone. The only thing on his mind right now was how he would protect Abigail.

"Abi… don\'t be scared. I got you." Nathan whispered in her ears as he tightened his grip on her body. He didn\'t hear any response from her.

Thud!

Thud! 

Thud!

The next thing that happened was both of them hitting several trees before they hit the ground. Nathan winced in pain and he felt the impact.

Break!

Crush!

Not only the branches, but he heard the breaking of bones. He got hurt as their bodies hit the rock. He was still hugging Abigail when their bodies continued rolling down from the cliff.

Nathan\'s heart sank when he saw Abigail\'s bleeding head and her unconscious figure.

"Abi… wake up…" Nathan tapped her face tenderly.

But Abigail was no longer responding. Nathan panicked. The memories of him holding Monica\'s lifeless body came flashing to his mind.

\'Abi… no! NO! Please wake up…\'

Nathan was also losing consciousness. He was badly injured as well. He couldn\'t move his leg as a sharp branch pierced his flesh. Nathan was also bleeding so hard, making him so weak.

With his remaining strength, Nathan just hugged Abigail in his arms. Before he knew it, he collapsed and fainted. The two lay unconscious on the ground. Both were injured and bleeding. If they couldn\'t be found quickly, both of them might die.

From a distance, the sniper watched Abigail and Nathan through his telescope. He picked up his phone and dialed someone\'s number.

"It\'s all done." The sniper reported to his Boss. The sniper immediately left his post after reporting his mission accomplished.

\'There is no way they can survive that fall. Furthermore, no one will think that there are people who need to be rescued in this place. By the time their family members realize that they are missing, the two will be cold corpses.\' The sniper was confident that no one would save Abigail and Nathan.

[ At Stephen\'s Place… ]

In the Phantomflake\'s ward, the miraculous thing happened once more. The patient who had been lying in a coma for a very long time finally woke up. And this time, this was for real!

Gasp!

Phantomflake gasped as she snapped her eyes open. Her hand removed the oxygen mask and she tried to get up. But her body was so weak! She could feel the numbness of her muscles. She had difficulties moving around.

Breathing heavily, Phantomflake looked at her hands and shifted her gaze to her surroundings.

\'No! This can\'t be…\' The realization scared her to the core. She was back to her original body!

"N-Nathan… Abigail… they are in danger!" Phantomflake mumbled in her hoarse voice.

In her panicking mode, she tried to move, removing the IV drip in her hand. No one was around! She needed to ask for their help.

Thud!

Phantomflake tried to get up but her feet were still so weak. She ended up falling to the floor. She couldn\'t stand as her legs were still adjusting. She was immobilized for two years. This was a natural body reaction for the patient who was in a coma for a long time.

"Help! Help! Stephen! Cherry!" Phantomflake shouted for help, hoping that Cherry and Stephen were just nearby.

She needed their help. Her heart was about to burst from too much worrying about Nathan and Abigail.

"Bam-Bam! Are you here?!! Help me!" Phantomflake felt so desperate.

"Damn it! Where are the people here?" She tried to stand up but failed. Her legs were very weak.

She clenched her fists tightly, her eyes getting misty. She punched her legs several times. "You need to stand! Stand!" she said through her gritted teeth.

For the first time, Phantomflake felt so helpless. But her desire to save Nathan and Abigail was strong.

With all her strength, She crawled toward the door. She had to tell someone that Nathan and Abigail were in danger.

Just when she reached the door, someone finally entered the ward. Cherry was surprised when she saw Phantomflake on the floor. She immediately bent over to help her.

"Sissss! You\'re awake!" Cherry was so happy. She hugged Phantomflake as if there was no tomorrow. But there was no time to rejoice.

"Sis, don\'t be afraid. You are safe here. No one will try to hurt you." Cherry comforted her, thinking that Phantomflake was trying to escape.

But Phantomflake shook her head. "Black Rose… where is Stephen? Call him now. ASAP!"

Cherry was taken aback for a moment when Phantomflake mentioned Stephen. How did she know she was in Stephen\'s place? She could remember Stephen now?

"Go, Black Rose. Find him now!" Phantomflake pushed her away from her. Cherry could feel the sense of urgency in her voice.

Cherry set aside her confusion. She had to follow Phantomflake\'s order. She was about to leave when Phantomflake held her elbow thus stopping her.

"Sis?"

"Inform Stephen that Nathan and Abigail are in danger. He needs to conduct a search and rescue mission in Caceres Hill and the surrounding forest." Phantomflake didn\'t want to waste any more time. Cherry should tell Stephen right away about Nathan\'s and Abigail\'s situation.

Cherry: "..."

"Go, Black Rose. We are running out of time. The two might die!" Phantomflake commanded her with her authoritative voice.

"O-Okay… Sis!" Cherry immediately left the room, looking for Stephen.

When Cherry left, Phantomflake leaned on the wall, closing her eyes. She was silently praying that Nathan and Abigail were safe.

\'I swear… once I regain my strength, I\'ll catch that sniper… and the person behind him!\'
