MELODY MUSKETEERS (M911 & TTM)
017. THE UNEXPECTED RESCUE

Niko walks with her sister Nausha after coming out of the teacher's room. The teacher calls Niko's parents for reprimanding the young man who often comes late to school. And Nausha represents Niko's parents to face Widia, his homeroom teacher.

"You're embarrassing me so much. You've only been transferring schools here for a month, but you've been fifteen times the twenty-one days of the month." Nausha. "I'm not here for a vacation to take care of a lousy sister like you."

"When are you back in Russia?" Niko asked who was walking side by side in the school corridor with her sister.

"Fastly. I don't like it here. Zdes' ochen' zharko (It's very hot)." Nausha Gumam. "Papa and Mama are coming next month, are you seriously getting engaged to Melody? Now you want to marry young? Too bad, you'll regret it one day."

"Vpervyye ya byl tak ser'yezen (I've never been this serious)." Niko answered with a smile.

"You guys just met." Nausha stopped walking. "Well, I'm going first, my friend's been waiting for me since."

Nausha hugged Niko after which walked quickly away from Niko.

Niko who walked casually saw Anna who had just come out of the OSIS room with her bag because she was about to go home after completing her OSIS task.

"Bonnie, are you just coming home?" Niko asked right in front of the door of the OSIS room where Anna was locking the door. "Being the head of OSIS is busy."

"But it's so fun." Answer Anna. "You must remember, my name is Anna!!"

"You want a ride? I can take you first. You look very pale." Niko.

"I'll stop by the minimarket at the end of the road, no need." Anna said after walking away from Niko.

Anna walked out to the minimarket at the end of the street not far from the school. He intended to stop by to just buy instant noodles and eat them because the girl had to take medicine immediately. His head has been in constant pain since the morning, even when the OSIS meeting he could not concentrate at all.

When Anna was about to reach the minimarket, suddenly a black car stopped nearby. Three men wearing jackets to cover their uniforms got out of the car. Anna knows who they are because she fought with them while helping Aramis.

"What do you want?" Anna exclaimed in confusion as the three men approached her.

Without further ado they push Anna into the car, where someone is ready to stand by in the steering wheel that immediately runs the car when his friends managed to get Anna into the car.

Niko who just passed by his car saw what happened. She is suspicious that Anna is forced into the car.

"Do you want them on Bonnie?" Niko asked confusedly.

Anna is kicked out of the car at an old factory that is already unused. There are already waiting for several other men, and one of them is Ryan, Aramis' enemy. Ryan looks happy with the arrival of Anna who was kidnapped by her friends.

"See who's coming?" Ryan approached Anna. "Gosh, you look so handsome in those sweatpants."

Anna was just quiet because her headache made her not focus too much. He became very upset with Aramis, because he was now in this situation in the midst of the enemies of Aramis. Anna had no idea what they were going to do to her but all she knew was that it must be something bad.

Anna sighed trying to catch her breath to stand up to the fight if only they tried to do something bad to her. Although he knew he would not be able to defeat them all, but he did not want to give up on his condition.

"What do you want?" Anna asked who was in the middle of the man who numbered more than ten people.

"none. We just want to have fun." Ryan replied with a laugh with his friends. "It looks like it would be fun if Ars knew that his women were having fun with us."

"Can I join?" Tanya Niko who suddenly appeared with her left hand that was in the pocket of her coat.

Ryan and his friends are surprised by Niko's presence, even those who originally surrounded Anna become backward and stand behind Ryan and Anna.

"It looks like it's gonna be a lot of fun." Niko continued with a grin.

"Niko, what are you doing here? It seems you don't have to join us." Answer Ryan. "If I knew you had a grudge against Ars, but you had a relationship with his sister. Ars will not just stay silent. Do you know who this woman is?"

Niko laughed, and made Ryan and his friends stare at each other in confusion. While Anna can only be silent in a situation with a body condition that is not good as it is now.

"You're wrong, I didn't ask you." Niko. "Heh Bonnie, can I join you?"

Anna smiled at Niko who was also smiling at her. The girl was a little relieved.

"You mean you want to fight us to save him?" Ask Ryan. "Geez, what are you thinking, Niko? Go, don't interfere. Anyone can challenge Ars regardless of Lion's friendship formula, right?"

"You're right, but unfortunately I think your actions are wrong. Right now what you're doing isn't challenging Ars." Niko Seru. "Just stop all this, if you do bad things to him I'll make sure your fate will be the same as Mario. This girl is also included in the Lion formula."

"really?" Ryan started to look shaky and frightened.

"Do I need to call Lion now?" Tanya Niko pulled out her phone.

Soon Ryan and his gang release Anna and leave the place. Anna did not understand what was happening, but she was relieved to be able to get out of a situation that could have been the worst situation in her life. All thanks to Niko who came to help him.

"Other times if you're in a situation like this, use the name Lion. Just hearing his name they'll run away." Niko. "And I suggest never interfere again when anyone challenges Ars. You don't have to help your girlfriend in a fight. They'll be right after you."

"Is the Lion so much feared by them?" Ask Anna.

"No, they're not afraid of Lion. They were disinclined that Lion's influence had a huge impact if they made him angry. Friends who are loyal to him will not be silent when Lion wants something. They're very numerous and come from all walks of life, and I'm one of them." Niko. "But your position is not good, Lion's friends are mostly your girlfriend's enemies. They'll all definitely be after you because if this happens again it's best to use the name Lion."

Anna laughed at hearing that. He did not understand the complexity made by those men. His head was getting sick from hearing Niko's chatter. He was still trying to endure the pain by holding his head with both hands.

"You won't understand." Niko Muttered. "Hurry up, I'll take you home. Ars has to thank me for everything I've done to you."

Niko turned around and walked about to get out of the place. But his steps stopped when he heard something. He immediately turned his head and saw Anna had already fallen to the ground from fainting.
