I'm currently behind Ruby and Cross to protect me from the vampires. I couldn't use the power I had because I didn't know how to use and control it yet, so I just stood there while they fought them. Suddenly, Mr. White approached me, and then he grabbed my hand and pulled me out of that place. But we were immediately stopped when they surrounded us and pointed a sword at our necks so that we could not move where we were. Even Ruby and Cross were stunned when they saw the situation of the two of us, so they too were surrounded and held in their two arms. Their superior came down from the throne, and then he approached us. It was only then that I got a glimpse of his true appearance where and realized he was just a boy of fifteen years old, and I thought he was an old vampire. But it's also possible that maybe he drank a lot of human blood that made him look like that, or he did some magic on himself to make him look younger like that.

I was shocked when he brought his face closer to me, and he looked at me closely while staring into my eyes. He was about to touch his face but Mr. White immediately stopped him and grabbed his hand which shocked him, and he immediately backed away with a shocked expression on his face.

“Don't ever touch him if you don't want me to show your future too.” Mr. White threatened him, and I was shocked when I realized that he also can read the future of an immortal and that's why this vampire wanted to touch me because he wanted to know my future but fortunately Mr. White stopped him before he discovered that I am not the real Axel.

The vampire didn't speak right away, but he was still staring at Mr. White, so I couldn't help but wonder at the two of them and why they suddenly became silent. I noticed that Mr. White was also looking at him, and it was as if the two of them were talking only through their minds.

I have no idea what they are talking about, but I can't help but be suspicious of Mr. White why does he seem to be the only one with such vampire-like abilities as if he's one of them?

Until their superior raised his right hand and all of a sudden, his servants retreated away from us and simultaneously lowered their weapons. Besides that, they opened

the doors out of that place, so we were able to get out, and we leave with a look of wonder on our faces.

“What did you two talk about and how did you convince him to let us go?” I asked Mr. White as we walked away from there and I looked back for a moment where I noticed all the vampires were looking at us, so I turned my gaze to him again, and I watched him from head to toe. I don't know what it is that I feel now, but it seems that there is something different in the way he acts and as if he is hiding something from us.

Even Ruby and Cross were curious about him, but they were afraid to ask him, so they chose to keep their mouths shut. But I'm not them and I can't stay silent without knowing the truth, so I stop walking, and I run back to the superior of the vampires. They were surprised by what I did so they immediately chased after me but before they could get close to me, I got close to him first, and I stopped in front of him where I stared at him.

I tried to do what they did earlier, and I also tried to talk to him using our minds. But no matter how hard I look into his eyes, I don't hear a voice or anything unusual happens between the two of us.

“What are you doing?” only then did I come to my senses when I heard Mr. White's voice, and because of that, I turned to him.

“Is that all? Are you not going to even tell me what you two talked about?” When I said that, he shook his head and came closer to me.

“What do you mean? What are you saying we talked about?” he said as if he had no idea what I meant. I looked closely at his face and noticed that his facial expression had changed as if he had returned to being Mr. White. But his eyes were strange when he looked at him earlier, and it was as if he were being possessed by another creature inside his body.

It's impossible that he doesn't know what happened earlier because only they know what they talked about and how he convinced him to release us all.

“I don't know what you're talking about, Axel. We didn't discuss anything together and who would I talk to if it was just the two of us here today?” after he said that my eyes widened in shock as I looked around my entire surroundings where I realized we were inside the house where they live. Besides that, I noticed Ruby was in the kitchen while she was cooking pancakes and Cross was inside his room playing computer games.

Because of the quick event, I immediately looked at Mr. White who was just smiling at me, then he patted my shoulder and left.

I'm stunned from where I am now, and I'm confused by what happened.

How did all that happen, and how was he able to change everything as if nothing had happened?

I turned again in the direction of Mr. White, who just kept walking into his room. I just scratched the back of my head and felt like I was dizzy with so much confusion. Therefore, I thought of approaching Ruby to ask her about Mr. White and the vampires who captured me, but she didn't seem to remember what happened and thought that it was all just a dream of mine. But I'm sure it wasn't all just my dream, and I'm sure there's something different about that old grim reaper. He must be keeping a secret from us, and he may have been doing it to them for a long time, but they have no idea that he has been deceiving them for a long time.

Who is Mr. White really, and what is the mystery surrounding his personality? Why do I feel like he's just pretending to be a grim reaper?

I thought of going to his room and asking him about the things that were troubling my mind. But when I peeked at his door I noticed something strange about him where he was taking off his polo shirt and behind him, I saw big marks on his back which surprised me and I covered my mouth at the same time and left me immediately before he even turned to me.

I entered Axel's room and immediately closed the door. I could hardly believe what I discovered from him, and I felt my whole body shaking with fear. Furthermore, I know what the black marks on his back mean and I read about it in a book.

Furthermore, I discover that he was not a grim reaper but a fallen angel who was expelled and punished from the kingdom of heaven, and if I am not mistaken that only one angel was rejected by the deities because of the magnitude of his sins, and it was without apart from Lucifer.

Maybe, Mr. White, is the Lucifer referred to in the book I read, and he is not the grim reaper but a demon.

While I was thinking of a way to get out of that place, I suddenly heard a loud knock on the door where he was trying to open it. Therefore, I immediately locked the door and entered Axel's secret room, where I also took some of his weapons and took the key to his favorite car. I immediately opened his basement before he destroyed the bedroom door and even though I don't have much experience driving cars I still used Axel's car. I pressed the start button where it started immediately, but I immediately hit the wall and my forehead hit the steering wheel causing me to get injured and blood dripping from my forehead. When I raised my head, I was shocked to realize that he was now in front of me, and he was standing on top of the car. My eyes almost widened in shock, but I immediately got out of the car and ran away from him as I was terrified and didn't know what to do.

Until I stopped when he was suddenly in front of me. He slowly looked up, and I saw his black eyes and his black wings also came out from behind. I slowly stepped back from him, but he came closer to me, and then he choked me by my neck. I tried to free myself from him but with the tightness of his stranglehold on me, he even managed to lift me so that I could hardly breathe. Until I felt like my vision was slowly fading, and for a few moments, I lost consciousness. He threw me on the floor and then left immediately. The last time I saw him was when I was looking at his shoes while he was walking away from me because, after that, my vision became dark.

I feel like I'm lying in a dark room now with no one around me but me.

What is happening to me now? Am I already dead now? Why can't I move my body, and why can't I open my eyes?

I thought that was the end of me, but I heard a familiar voice as he called me again and again but with a different name.

“Axel!” because of her voice, I suddenly back to my senses, and I was very surprised to realize that I was holding Mr. White tightly by the neck while we were inside the cave where the vampires had taken us before. I immediately released him and he fell to the ground while catching his breath.

I looked around where we were still surrounded by vampires and not far away I noticed their superior smiling at me. Furthermore, I don't know what happened, but it seems like it was just my illusion, and it was because of a bowl of blood that the vampire girl handed me earlier. But the poison was not in the drink or the blood, but on the tip of the container where my lips touched the bowl, she had smeared with poison. Therefore, blood suddenly came out of my mouth and Ruby and Cross immediately approached me, but it was too late when we discover they had poisoned me. I couldn't stop the blood coming out of my mouth until I just collapsed, and suddenly, my whole body went numb where I was unable to move it and I couldn't feel it.

“Axel, don't give up, and don't close your eyes,” Ruby said to me crying while I lay on her legs while Cross wiped the blood coming out of my mouth, and it was obvious from his face that he didn't know what to do. Until I looked up when Mr. White came to us, and he was just standing there looking at me, where for a few moments my breathing stopped and the entire area around us became silent.

When I woke up, I found myself in a quiet and dark place where I was alone. But I know it's just my dream. Until I heard footsteps of shoes that seemed to be heading towards where I was. I looked at him carefully until I caught a glimpse of his appearance when he stopped in front of me. He slowly looked up at me, and I realized that I was seeing myself now, but in a different persona.

“You're Axel, am I right?” I was curious, but he didn't respond, just staring at me. “Tell me, am I dead? Is that why you are here in front of me now?” I added, then he drew a smile on the side of his lips.

“You are me.” He taught me. “When you die, I will die too. Do you understand what I mean?” He added while I looked at him in wonder. I couldn't fully understand what he meant to me, but suddenly, he brought his face closer to me, and then he spoke again. “You can't die, Neil. Go back to where you belong.” He said at the same time he pushed me hard on my shoulder causing me to throw away from him and when I opened my eyes I came back to my life again while panting.

They immediately approached me and helped me get up. “You're alive, Axel,” Ruby said to me as she touched my face, and there was a trace of happiness on their faces. But I was still puzzled if it was Axel that I saw in my dream, or was he the one who saved my life from the brink of death?
