*Knock! Knock! *
-Yes!
- Pardon my intrusion! Master Daniel, I found what you asked me to.
- Go wait for me in my office!
- Yes, sir!
- So, mister Jang, have you made your mind?
- Yes, I'll buy all of them.
- Very well. Sign this papers and I'll let my mans know you're buying them. Do you want them delivered?
- No. I'll come tomorrow to take them.
- Very well.
- Daniel, this aside, I heared James is moving. I heared he made some bad things and he's coming after you. Better watch your back! We don't know what he can do.
- Mister Jang, this is my problem. Now, if you'll excuse me...
- Sure!

-So, what did you found?
-After he vanished with the money, he went to America. He invested the money in some illegal businesses. Of course, he put a part of them at a bank. Also, he is known for killing some important figures of the dark market. He is currently using an abandoned building as his base and he is not really hiding. In fact, it seems like he is showing off.
- And the girl?
-Yes. She is always with him.. There are rumors saying that their relationship is deeper than it seems. Her family is known for the dirty things they did. I couldn't find her true name, because she used many names until now, and she never gaved her surname. Also, the nickname "Shadow" was given by James.
- What names did she used until now?
- Anna, with the nickname "Black cat" , Nicole, with the nickname "Black angel" , Dianne, wi-
-Did you just said "Black angel" ?

- Yes, sir.
- Find the period when she used that name!
-Yes, sir!
' "Black angel" , huh? ' he mumbled, lighting another cigarette.
Daniel took a seat in his chair, when he heared a gunshot in the yard. He jumped up from his chair.
A tall man slamed the door and said, almost shouting:
-Sir, somebody is attacking us!
Daniel went out with the man. Another two man followed them. As soon as they came out from the house, they heared another gun- shot. A new bullet went through the air, bypassing Daniel at a very small distance.
-A snipper. he said, looking at the trees.
Indeed, something that looked like the shadow of a person got away from a tree, almost running.
-Should we go after him?
-No. Luka, come with me!
-Yes!
They entered the home, then went into Daniel's office.
-Take a seat. Daniel said, then seated on his chair, lighting himself a cigarette. Take one if you want! he told him, placing the pack of cigarettes and the lighter on the table, in front of Luka.
Luka took one and lit it.
- We should put more guards around the house and, also, we should check the forest. Maybe we'll find something.
-Yes, sir!
-.... Luka, that Shadow's last nickname was Black angel...
-Don't tell me...he said, his eyes widened
-I asked Alex to find when she used that nickname.
- Sir, do you think that she is the same person who...
-I just have a feeling. That aside, I think that this was a warning.
- I think so, too. What shoul we do?
- Let's wait. First, we have to know all that is to be known about him. Then, we'll see.
- Yes, sir! ... But, sir, what will you do if Shadow really is the same person from 10 year ago?
-I don't know. I don't even know what I'll do when I'll find James. Do something! Daniel said, with an expression that almost begged on his face, then stood up.
- Luka lighted off his cigarette and stood up. He approached Daniel, then took his head in his hands and looked him in the eyes.
-It will be fine! I'm with you! Even if they'll break you up and make you the most miserable person in the world, I'll be with you!
- Daniel rested his head on Luka's right shoulder.
It would be difficult to define their relationship. Though Luka speaks formally to Daniel and obeys him, he would sometimes forget about the boss- subordinate relation and speak informally to him. But only when he feels he can afford this. On the other side, though Daniel is a very strong person, he depends on Luka in many ways. But, still, there's something more about their relationship, something deeper than this...
