"Well… now, where am I?" Ivana said as she looked around her. she went to gather information about a target. Five years have passed since she went to live with Albert and Robin, after her first mission with Albert she started to go with him and Robin for missions but she never went alone as she didn't finish her training yet. "I followed him to gather information now I'm lost.... Robin will kill me for this, I hope I'm not turning into Al" she said as she walked trying to figure her way out of the town. She tried to find the forest scent but it was nowhere to be found, instead, there was the scent of tanning leather which annoyed her a lot. She felt that she was getting more and more lost but she was afraid to ask any person. "I won't get home like this." She said to herself and started looking at the people around her hoping to find someone that could ask. She kept looking for a while then she saw a boy who seemed 14 years old or so "He's..." She thought and followed him trying to reach him to ask him for help. The street was crowded so she couldn’t reach him but she kept following him, she nearly lost sight of him many times but she managed to avoid that. Finally, she reached him when he entered a side street which was empty she started talking to him "Excuse......." "Why are you following me? Who sent you?" He said as he pointed a gun towards her head "I… I just wanted to ask you about the directions" she said as she took a step backwards "Really... Then why did you ask anyone else you followed me persistently, DO YOU THINK I'M AN IDIOT! SAY WHO SENT YOU OR ELSE YOU'LL HAVE A NICE HOLE IN YOUR HEAD!" he said "No one sent me... I was just afraid to ask anyone else." She said hesitantly "And why me in particular?" He asked sarcastically "You're the only one who's...... like me." She said "Like you?! Don't make me laugh, let's just end this act, goodbye kid." He said as he pulled the trigger. "So, you're still insisting that you only want to ask about directions?" He said as he looked at Ivana who dodged his bullet. "Yes, I want to know how to reach the forest and I'm afraid to ask people." She said. He looked at her for a second then he walked towards the main street again and said "Follow me". She followed him and went through the crowd but this time she was right next to him and he didn't try to lose her. After a short while they began to get far from the smell of tanning leather and she started to smell the forest little by little "Finally!" She said "Annoying smell, right?" He said without looking at her "Yes, thanks for helping me" she said as she smiled "What's your name? Mine is Ivana" she said "Marshall" he said then he took a fast look at her then said "So, you're a wolf?" He said "Yes" she answered "Really? A wolf afraid of humans?" he said sarcastically "Well...." She said with a sad voice " Just forget it … you have the right to do whatever you want ... by the way, how did you know that I am not normal even though you couldn't indicate scents?" He said "I felt it, you didn't look like them… I guess you had a similar aura to someone I know." she said simply "Just that!" "Yes? You too, why did change your mind and decided to believe me?" She asked "If you really meant harm you would've attacked or even took out your weapon, you can move fast so you would have used this against me especially if you use guns." He said "Here we are." He said as he pointed at the forest "Thanks!" She said "What were you doing here alone anyway?" he asked, she smiled and said "See you Marshall." Then she left.
"Where were u?" Asked Robin as Ivana entered the house "Sorry, I got lost." She said "Be more careful, I don't want you to get in trouble because of this" Robin said "I will be more careful, where is Al?" She said "In his room." He said "OK " Ivana said as she went towards Albert's room "Al! I'm back!" She said as she entered Albert's room " Welcome back, how did it go?" Albert said. "Great, I got all information we need, he didn't even realize it" she said as she gave him some papers "Good, Robin was sick worried about you, but at this rate you'll get your own missions soon." He said happily "You really grew up" he said
