章 39: 39. The Easy Task
Jay, Mark, and Natalie are in front of a two-storey house located in Mahat.
Mahat is a district of the city of Rubando located about five kilometers west of Rubando. East of Rubando there are also three districts and past it, is San Diego city, a larger territory than Rubando, where the San Diego University is.
If in a map, the San Francisco University is at the very center of Rubando. Around the University is the Hospital and the Police Station east of it, the marketplace west of it, the government offices in the far north of it, and south of the University is the plaza and many houses.
The Rubando High School is located south of the San Francisco University, about two to three kilometers. The place where Jay is living can be said to be at the middle of these two schools, a place where population is lesser. The city of Ago, although the capital of San Francisco, had already a college in it so they had the San Francisco University situated in Rubando.
The dark zones are the places located in a wide area between Rubando and Mahat. Although the place has houses and people, it is naturally different. The buildings in the dark zones are buildings abandoned by the community a long time ago and now, the place was inhabited by freaks and monsters. The government made a safe road for people to travel between Mahat and Rubando, enabling them to avoid the dark zone. The safe road is also filled with plenty of policemen, keeping watch of any troubles that happens.

Right now, Jay and the other two are frowning while they entered the house. There are houses surrounding it, but one look at the house and one can tell that the house is empty. Plant vines are noticeable on the walls of the house as well as the walls enclosing the house.
They opened the gate using the key that Xander gave them, and Mark took a long time to open it, die to the padlock filled with rusts.
They forced themselves to come here early in the morning just for their task.
Hearing that the task was from Red Eye, they are excited, but the so-called easy mission for them is cleaning a house!
Red Eye is a member of the Scar group, and also the childhood friend of their leader. One can say they are very close like real brothers.
Few years ago, Red Eye earned his nickname from being famed as the greatest sniper and Gunner of the dark zones of the whole city of San Francisco. Not only that, but they sometimes went on adventures together with the other core members all over the country.
After his fame, he, together with the others, disappeared like they did not exist as even the big gangs and groups did know where they are. Even the government and the Extraordinaires group cannot trace them. What's more, only the real identity of the leader and Xander are known by everyone, while the other core members' and the outer members' identities are unknown even to the government. This made the group to be more mysterious.
Even the Jay and the other two didn't know where these people are, and Xander can't tell them either.
Red Eye tasked them to clean his house situated in the district of Mahat. The reason?
Of course the house has been empty for a few years now and no one has been living in it. Unless Red Eye comes home. Even though he will come back, no one will know also that he is Red Eye. He can just say he worked overseas or he went to work in a far place and no one will question him. And actually, he really went to work, together with the others.
Although Jay and the other two took the task as an easy one, it will surely take them the whole day to finish cleaning the house.
The trio entered the house.
The house still looks clean but when they observe clearly, the dust on the floor and on the furnitures are thick.
"Geez, that guy. We should ask him to give us something in return when he comes back", Mark said while covering his nose. The dusts flew up whenever they walk.
Glancing the wooden wall, they saw a picture of him, together with Xander and two other people.
"I wonder where they are now", Jay still remember the past when the three of them became a member of the group.
"Yeah. I also miss them. They helped us a lot. I wish to have another spar with one of them", Natalie said while looking at the picture hanged.
"Yeah? You wish to spar with them. I'm sure you will not last even a breath."
"That's better. For you, you will not even breath when you realize you are knocked down."
The three banter with each other for a while and then began their work.
They gathered all the necessary materials and tools and started cleaning outside the house. After eating in a nearby eatery, they continued cleaning the inside.
"Whew. it is much harder to clean inside than outside", Natalie is mopping the floor while Mark is cleaning the cobwebs. Jay is wiping the tables, chairs, and other things with dusts in it.
They even washed all utensils and materials in the house since they are not used for a long time. After that, they covered them with clean cloth.
Even the master bedroom was cleaned.
They completely finished their task when it is 5:30 pm.
Covered in sweats, they want to go home quickly and take a bath.
"I guess we go home now?"
"Yeah. Our task is done."
They headed outside and gave one last look at the house before locking the gate.
"Wait, Red Eye tasked us to clean his house. Don't you feel that something's gonna happen?" Jay voiced out his sudden thoughts.
"Hmm?" The couple looked at him questioningly.
"What I mean is, maybe Red Eye will come back soon? That's why we cleaned his house?"
When the two heard him, they also considered the idea to be possible.
"If he will come back, then let us visit him then", Mark said.
The three laughed and went home. Jay told Randy of his thoughts. His dad doesn't even know where they are, so he also thought that maybe that Red Eye will come back soon. Even he is an outer member, since the leader took interest of him because of his skill.
Randy even thought that maybe some of the core members will come back? It's possible since they can go and stay at Xander's base.
The day ended and night started. Jay fell asleep immediately.
