As Neil watched his brother run, he kept attacking the people before him using the marbles in his pocket. Though the method was not strong enough to overpower them, he could at least gain some time for his brother to call for help.First, he knocked the gang leader's gun, forcing him to drop it before he attacked the other men. His attacks were precise and perfect and at one point, one of the marbles hit his opponent's eye, rendering him howling in anguish.Neil cheered at his small victory and continued to attack the men while he kept moving back, following his brother, glancing at him every few seconds. However, his plan completely backfired when he ran out of his marbles. All the seven marbles he had were used and now he had nothing but the slingshot.A frown marred his face and Neil, too, started running. The men were momentarily down and it was the perfect time to get away from them. But he had miscalculated his luck and had barely turned around to follow his brother when a punch

Meanwhile, in a faraway land, a woman with grey hair kept walking hurriedly. Excitement was dancing on her face and her brown eyes twinkled in joy. She had been waiting for this day for a long time and finally, after fourteen years, she had found the people she was looking for. A smile lingered on her lips as she carried a letter with her.As moments passed, her pace increased and in the end, she was almost sprinting. By the time she reached the room she had in mind, she was gasping lightly and droplets of sweat covered her forehead."Oh, my poor legs." She mumbled in dismay and her face scrunched up. But when she recalled the good news she had with her, a blissful smile blossomed on her face and she stood straight, forgetting about everything else.Adjusting her glasses, she knocked on the door and waited for some time. But she did not get any response from the other side. Blinking her eyes in confusion, she knocked again, only to meet the same result."Where did he go at this time o

Neil was startled to see his brother awake and even more so when he saw how Alan looked at him. His gaze was filled with suspicion and something in it made him unsettled. It was as though Alan was trying to delve deep into his soul and uncover the secrets he had ever hidden from him."Alan, when did you wake up?" He cleared his throat and enquired gently, trying to ease the awkwardness. However, all he got in return was silence.Alan was unbelievably quiet as he kept staring at him. Even though his face was pale, his profound gaze made Niel fidget in his place."What happened to you back then, Neil?" Alan did not reply to him. Instead, he voiced out the thoughts he had since the time he had seen his peculiar behavior.Neil stopped squirming and a frown creased his forehead. He had no idea what Alan was speaking about and his eyes conveyed his confusion, rendering Alan perplexed too."Do you not remember what happened before Dad arrived?" Although Alan had just woken up and his throat

"Dad.""Alan."Emily and Neil shouted at the same time. But they were some distance away from the two to prevent them from kissing the ground. So they could only stare in concern as they watched the father and the son collapse suddenly. Then, however, their expressions changed into that of horror when they saw the man who had been standing near the door appearing beside Jarett and holding him and Alan with ease and stopping them from suffering a nasty fall.Emily and Neil were appalled by what had happened. But, even though they were aghast by what had transpired, their thoughts were completely different.'How the heck was he able to reach Dad and Alan? What the hell happened just now?' Neil wondered, his eyes not leaving the older man who supported Jarett and Alan till the bed. Instead, his eyes conveyed his feelings openly and Trinity chuckled to herself, finding his thoughts and expressions adorable. In her eyes, he was just like a cute child.Sean sighed when he heard her thoughts

A brilliant bolt of lightning lit the room briefly before ending in a deafening clap of thunder. The weather worsened as time passed and the rain picked up speed until it was impossible to view anything from the window. The sky had turned dark, the black clouds hovering above like grim reapers.While to the world, the change in weather was a nuisance, to the people, inside the ward, it indicated the grave change in their lives, especially the Wright family.Alan and Neil stared at the older man before them as though they were looking at the clown. Their expressions mimicked each other as they blinked in perplexity."I understand your confusion and it might seem to you two that I am joking. But I am not." Sean smiled faintly, not at all infuriated by the two boys and their thoughts. Of course, any sane person without an idea about their world would react the same way."I can prove it to you if you want." The man continued and snapped his fingers and a white light emerged from his palm
