Chapter 11: The sniper guy
Turning around, Tamim spotted a girl with short black hair".
"Did you ask me?" Tamim inquired, slightly surprised.
"Yes, I did," the girl confirmed.
< The girl is Faria >
"Another fan, perhaps," Tamim pondered, mentally preparing to decline. "I don't have time to talk," he curtly replied.
"It's important for you," the girl persisted.
"Important? Alright, please make it quick," Tamim agreed, his curiosity piqued.
"You're in danger," the girl declared.
"Danger? What do you mean? What kind?" Tamim questioned, intrigued.
"It's because of your power," the girl continued.
"I don't have any powers," Tamim retorted, and thought " How the hell does this girl know about this? ".
"That's a lie. I can prove it right now. However, I won't say more here. If you really want to know, meet me at the park where you fought that monster, 4:00 PM," she asserted, boarding a bus abruptly.
At Nextera E-sports, Fahim noticed Tamim's unease. "What's wrong? You don't look okay," Fahim inquired.
"I'm not feeling well. I think I need to go home," Tamim excused himself.
"It's okay. Take care, Tamim," Samia reassured him.
"Thanks," Tamim acknowledged before leaving the room.

As Tamim arrived at the park, his focus on unraveling the mystery grew stronger.
"I expected you here," the girl calmly stated as Tamim approached her.
"Alright, first things first. How did you know about me? Who are you? And what's this danger you're talking about?" Tamim inquired urgently, a mix of curiosity and concern in his voice.
"Those are a lot of questions, and I'm not the best at conversation. But I'll try to answer properly," she began. "I saw you fighting that transformed monster. I'm the one who saved you from that situation, but I can't reveal much about myself. As for the danger, it's complicated, and it'll take time to explain. That's why I called you here."
While they conversed, a sniper's bullet aimed at the girl was effortlessly intercepted by her hand. Another bullet headed towards Tamim was deftly dodged by his quick reflexes. Identifying the sniper, he tried to locate the attacker, but the girl swiftly used her portal abilities to reach the assailant.
Demanding information, she confronted the sniper pressing him for details about his motives and affiliations.
"What's your purpose? Who do you work for?" the girl interrogated Kabila, a note of urgency in her voice.
That sniper guy, visibly hesitant, seemed torn. "I am Kabila, I work for Doctor Shohan," he finally divulged, his voice fraught with tension. "He aims to create a superhuman drug, a formula using enhanced DNA."
"That's common knowledge. Tell me something new," the girl pressed further.
Before Kabila could reveal anything more, a sudden burst shook the area, resulting in his abrupt demise, his head exploding before their eyes.
"Unexpected," Tamim uttered, taken aback by the shocking turn of events.
"Don't misjudge me. None of this was my doing," the girl clarified, sensing Tamim's confusion.
"Wait, just tell me what's happening," Tamim urged, feeling a sense of urgency.
"It's not the time to explain. People from this building are coming to the roof. We need to escape quickly with the body, she instructed, including the body, and they vanished, leaving Tamim bewildered in the park.
"What in the world just happened? And where did she go?" Tamim questioned aloud, trying to piece together the unexpected sequence of events.
