BROTHERS TOGETHER: US AGAINST DOOM

Waking Up To Doomsday 3

As soon as the Asian girl walked into Constantine's room, she immediately frowned...

For some reason, as soon as she entered, the girl felt that something was wrong. A bad feeling was creeping through her heart, and it was as if some evil presence was looking at her through the shadows.

Warning bells rang continuously in the girl's head and she quickly looked around to locate where the danger was.

Immediately, the girl's sharp gaze swept through the room and he immediately caught sight of the open window...

Making a beeline to the window without any thought to her safety, the girl quickly looked outside, hoping to catch anything suspicious afoot. But what greeted the girl's eyes were the empty streets of the city that were as quiet as a graveyard.

There was nothing outside the window that caused the girl to be greatly surprised.

After taking a few more looks outside the window, the girl finally retreated inside the room. She firmly locked the windows shut tightly to make sure that nothing could enter the room before once more sweeping the entire room with her gaze again.

After looking around and making sure there was nothing out of the ordinary in the room, the girl finally calmed down.

"Maybe I am just overreacting." the girl thought to herself.

This explanation seemed to calm her down slightly, and the uneasy feeling in her heart gradually subsided. But it did not completely go away. But then again, this uneasiness was already a familiar feeling to the girl.

Ever since Constantine got struck by lightning and fell into a coma a year ago and Baron had gone missing as well as everything that had been going wrong with the world, there had never been a time when the girl was never uneasy.

Thinking about Constantine, the girl was also reminded of his friend Baron, who had gone missing on the same day that Constantine had fallen into a coma after being struck by lightning.

Till now, Baron had never been found, and there wasn't even a trace of him anywhere on earth. The things that had been happening on earth for the past year made it even harder to locate Baron's whereabouts. The only thing that people knew was that on the day he disappeared, he had been together with Constantine and it was very possible that the two of them had both been struck by lightning at the same time. How he was able to disappear after that was a mystery!

Thinking of all this, the girl quickly shook her head and turned to look at Constantine, who was sleeping peacefully on the bed. Her face suddenly twisted in an expression of pain as she looked at the peaceful expression on Constantine's face.

It was as if looking at Constantine being so peaceful but unable to wake up was so hurtful. It was almost as if the girl would suddenly burst into tears right then and there. But that didn't happen. The girl remained strong, and she refused to cry.

Very soon, the girl's expression became cold and frosty and she no longer looked like she would cry anymore.

After taking a few more looks at Constantine, the girl immediately shifted her gaze to somewhere else. This time, she was looking at the window once more, but not exactly at it. Instead, the girl was looking at the vase of peonies that were seated on the windowsill.

Looking at the pink peonies that were neatly arranged in the vase, the girl had a look of disgust on her face and she spat out venomously in the air.

"How many times will I tell her that Constantine doesn't like peonies... they are too sickly sweet for his liking!"

The girl cursed under her breath before moving to take the offending flowers from the vase and throw them away into the trash. Then she went into the bathroom to refill the vase with water and replace the peonies with a bunch of lilies.

"There, better!"

Satisfied with her work, the girl appreciated the flowers for a moment before moving to stand by the bed and looking down at Constantine's handsome face.

"You always did like lilies better, didn't you? If only you could wake up to see them!"

The girl look down at Constantine and her expression became very lonely.

Raising her hand, the girl stroked Constantine's hair and removed a strand of hair that covered his eyelids. With a lonely expression, the girls said soulfully, "When are you going to wake up jerk?"

"You're such a jerk for sleeping so peacefully here and refusing to wake up and making me worry about you all this time."

"Idiot, jerk, loser... wake up soon, will you? If you do, I will let you bully me for a month. But only for a month. Any more than that and I will get angry and won't be able to forgive you again!"

The girl spoke so gently, and her expression softened while she stroked Constantine's hair. Unfortunately, Constantine did not respond to her and, because of that, she became even sadder.

Gradually, the room fell into a lull of silence and the girl did not speak for a long time until eventually; she stopped stroking Constantine's hair and said to him.

"I don't know why I come here all the time to see you and torture myself. You're such a jerk who doesn't listen to anybody, so why will you listen to me and wake up?"

"This is the last time I will be coming to see you, so if you're not waking up now and then, I won't bother with you anymore. Anyway, it's your loss."

Saying that the girl looked deeply at Constantine once more before making her way to the door.

She was about to leave and although the girl said she wouldn't be coming back to see him again; she knew for a fact that she would still be here tomorrow morning just like she always was. This was not the first time she said she would no longer come, but like always, she would constantly go back on her word.

When the girl reached the door of the room, she paused for a moment before turning back and saying to Constantine.

"Goodbye brother, see you tomorrow... and I hope you wake up soon. Your little sister misses you!"

With that, the Asian girl opened the door and left.

Bang!

With a bang, Constantine's door was shut close, and the room became empty once more. Except for Constantine, there was no other entity present in the room.

Bang!

Ten minutes after the Asian girl left, the window that she had previously shut closed suddenly exploded as shards of glass sprayed everywhere in the room. Following that, like a dark bolt of lightning, a dark shadow shot toward Constantine lying on the bed.

As this shadow flew like a bullet to the bed, its form quickly expended as if large gusts of air were furiously being pumped into it. In just a second, the sinister visage of the doom from before appeared, and it flew towards Constantine, attacking him without any warning.

Hum!

Boom!!!

In the next moment, there was a hum of electricity followed by a flash of white light. Then a massive explosion went off in Constantine's room that caused the entire building to shake and tremble.

The loud explosion affected not only the hospital building that Constantine was inside. It also affected the surrounding buildings with the shock waves from the explosion spreading for more than a hundred meters, causing windows and glass to break and fuse lines to rupture.

Below, there was pure chaos on the ground, and everybody in the hospital was affected. Dozens of windows had broken and countless machines shorted out and got fried. Moans and wailings could be heard both inside and outside the hospital and very soon, the wails of sirens could be heard coming from the distance.

Somewhere on the lower levels of the hospital, the Asian girl that had just exited Constantine's room picked herself up from the ground and she immediately looked at her surroundings. Everywhere she could see there were people trying to pick themselves up and others also trying to help other people get up.

Doctors and nurses also ran around trying to check if anybody was injured so they could give immediate treatment.

A nurse tried to approach the girl to ask her if she was okay, but the girl was not interested in answering her. Her mind was currently somewhere else and a bad feeling crept into her heart once again.

"Miss, you're hurt. Come with me so we can get you treated."

Quickly pushing the nurse away from her, the girl quickly sprinted away to the emergency stairs and started making her way to Constantine's room on the upper floors of the hospital.

The girl was very worried about Constantine, and something in her told her that he was in danger. Her feelings and always been sharp, so the girl trusted in them very much. Not caring for her own injuries, she shot upwards like a rocket, quickly making her way to Constantine's room.

It only took her one minute to make her way to Constantine's room from the bottom of the building. It was very clear that she was running at an inhuman speed. But nothing else was on the girl's mind right now.

As soon as she reached Constantine's floor, she ran to his room only to see that the door had been blown off its hinges, and the room was in a mess. There was wreckage all over the place, with black soot staining the walls as if a fire had happened in the room.

In the center of the room where Constantine's bed, the bed, was completely wrecked and unrecognizable.

Seeing this, a feeling of dread overcame the girl as she feared the worst, but before she could think any further, she suddenly noticed something in the original place where the window was.

Right now, the wall of the ward was completely blown away and there was nothing there save for a lone figure that stood there quietly with a vase of lilies in his hands.

Looking at that lonely figure, the girl's eyes that she had desperately tried to keep dry immediately became wet and large beads of tears dripped down her cheeks.

Staring deeply at the lonely figure who was tightly grasping the vase of lilies in his hand, which was the only thing that was still intact in the entire room, the girl called out softly, as if fearing that her eyes were deceiving her.

"Brother... is that you?"

"Are you finally awake?"

Hearing the girl's words, the figure slowly started to turn around. The girl held her breath until she finally saw the face that she was very familiar with looking back at her with lively eyes.

Constantine turned around and saw the girl crying and he immediately smiled and said to her, "What did I say about crying Fan?"

"It will ruin your pretty face!"

Hearing these familiar words after a long time, the girl could no longer control herself and she immediately pounced on Constantine while crying and wailing.

"Brother!!!"
