to take us.

“No, you stay here.” He told Alex then pointed at Iris, “and you make sure she stays here.”

Before I left Alex reached for me and kissed me, “I love you.”

“I love you too.” I replied before heading to my death.

The uncles exchanged looks, but after seeing everyone else wasn’t as surprised as they recovered quickly.

“Let’s go.”

They led Rebecca and me to the entrance where we met Alex father and several other people they were working with, some of who I never saw before.

“My team is going to make sure the ground floor is clear after that is up to you.” Alex father instructed,

So we headed inside and the warehouse was big and the light wasn’t enough and weren’t working properly so most part was dark.

“Wait,” I shouted.

“What?” he asked,

“There is still people in here.” Soon after I finished the sentence some people we couldn’t see started shooting at us. Instinctively I stopped the bullets with my telekinesis. Then Rebecca did her thing and we heard some groaning and whining and within seconds she was by my side again.

“I think the ground floor is clear.” She said,

“Well then, I think we are done here. God speed kids.” He said,

Rebecca didn’t like the kids’ part so her face wrinkled a little. Then he left with his crew. Rebecca and I were the only people left and several bodies on the floor which weren’t bleeding which means the guards weren’t humans but Keplexins.

We went up the stairs and the two guards that were there didn’t shoot at us but instead they backed up while pointing their guns at us until we reached the top.

“You are right on time. I have been waiting for you, I have to admit that was a dramatic entrance.” The tall man said who I assumed was Profillius.

At the end of the room Ashley was tied on a chair and mom was bending next to her crying.

“Mom, Ashley. Don’t you dare hurt them?” I snarled.

“Oh, I am not. How can I? Eliza have done a marvelous job. She deserves a reward.”

“What are you talking about?” I was confused.

“She did tell you.” He turned and looked at mom, “I’m not surprised she didn’t tell you.”

“She didn’t tell me what?” I yelled at him.

“I’ll leave that opportunity to her.” He moved to the side as if leaving the stage for another contestant.

 

 

 

 

CHAPTER 63;

 

Mom looked at him with pleading eyes as if she was begging for something. I never saw that look on her before.

“Come on Eliza. When did you become this pathetic? I liked you netter when you were ruthless, but now you are just useless.” He told her.

“Well, if you can’t tell I will.” He said, “You see, Eliza there killed your parents and I hired her to take care of you so that I can harness the energy from your body when you become mature.” He said with a smile.

“No, you are lying.” I looked at mom but she was looking down on the floor, “mom, tell me it’s not true, please.”

She didn’t say a word, but surprised me when she moved just as fast as Rebecca did and tried to attack Profillius but he caught her by the neck and started choking her. I didn’t know what to do. A part of me wanted to help her but another wanted to let her die for killing my parents. The conflict disappeared when he pulled out a knife from inside his big jacket and stabbed her with it in the stomach.

“No,” I yelled and I rushed towards him.

He threw mom on the side and slapped me one mighty slap which sent me flying on the other side of the room. When I hit the floor my heard was spinning and felt like I got hit by a train.

When I was attempting to get up Rebecca tried to fight him as well. But she didn’t seem to get anywhere, he blocked every punch she threw and every punch he threw at her hit her. The last attempt she tried was using her knife the one she said could kill him. She throttled it towards him but he threw her and her knife on the side that Ashley was tied up on a chair unconscious and the knife fell close to it.

He turned and seemed like he was going to finish Rebecca off. Suddenly I got an idea, there was one table in the room so I used my powers and threw the table at him and it broke into pieces.

Good thing is he left Rebecca alone but he seemed annoyed and coming for me. I got myself steady and tried to find his weak point but he had none. I threw him pieces of the table with my telekinesis which didn’t seem to bring much effect on him.

And finally he was like face to face with me. He had bluish gray eyes which means he was royalty as well. He had good looks if he wasn’t so bad. I pounced him fast and moved quickly so that he won’t catch me. But that didn’t take him down it rather made him angrier.

“You’ll never be able to defeat me. I have lived for centuries. You are just a little boy.” He said while coming towards me as I was trying to catch my breath. Man! Fighting him was like fighting a huge brick wall.

“You know, I thought killing your friends will turn your soul dark and you can become my partner. With powers like yours we could take over the world together. But you are stubborn. Anyways, that changes nothing, now I’m just going to take those powers from you. Can you imagine take life and give life at will. Do you know how nice it will be if I could find anyone whenever I wanted. You can’t understand, you are still too young. I have been waiting a long time for someone with powers like yours.”

I was angry and tired so I decided to try one more time, so I gathered all the powers I had inside of me and try to control his body. But somehow by using his hand could resist my powers.

“You are strong, but not enough to take me.” Then he moved so fast it felt like he moved in a blink of an eye. He grabbed my neck and lifted me to his level, since he was taller by several inches my legs were dangling, “how long I have waited and now finally. Don’t resist it won’t hurt.” Then he opened his mouth wide and I started to feel weird like my body was being drained. I felt dry yet sweaty and his face had bluish glow. I couldn’t breathe, I couldn’t move, every part of me was stiff.

I was feeling my life being sucked out of my body and I could think was damn, what a shitty way to die. Then a picture of Ashley smiling face popped up in my head then mom’s even though now I knew she killed my parents for this monster, but she also took good care of me. Then I remembered Alex with her mischievous attitude and stubbornness. These were the images which helped me to hold on even though I knew at the end of the day I will give up and die. My vision was becoming blurry and my body was getting super cold, ‘this is it, huh!’ I thought. Then I closed my eyes since there was no any strength left inside of me.

But all over sudden the suffocation stopped and in a slightest way I felt my body again and started breathing again. Then I was dropped on the floor since my legs didn’t have any communication with body for a second.

I looked behind him and Ashley was standing with her eyes totally black. Now I understood why her eyes could turn black like that, I always wondered even though I never asked. She wasn’t a normal human like me. This was the Ashley you never mess with. He turned around and Rebecca knife was stuck in his back. He tried to reach for it but he couldn’t, he reached for Ashley who was looking at him like a wild animal but he could move also.

Weirdly, he was there one minute and another he was gone and the knife fell on the floor. And just like that he was gone.

Ashley ran towards me and hugged me so tightly I felt like she was checking me, but I didn’t mind.

“Thank you.” I pleaded.

“I’ll never let anything bad happen to you, ever.” She said proudly and also her eyes were back to normal.

“Mom!” Ashley called out and kneeled down on the floor where mom was lying.

I went to Rebecca and she was alive but just passed out, I woke her up. She was on her feet again within seconds.

“Is he dead?” she asked,

“I don’t know but he isn’t here now.” I said,

“Steven,” mom called with a low voice.

Quickly I rushed to her, somehow I couldn’t help caring about her and wanting to hear what she had to say. She grabbed my hand tightly and gave me something.

“I’m sorry I killed you parents, even though I know these words doesn’t change anything. I want you to know there wasn’t a day I didn’t regret doing what I did. You healed me you returned my soul back because you are the healer. You saved me from the person I was. You will achieve a lot in your life and save lots of lives as well. The keys are for the house your parents left for you. May be there’s some documents there to help you know them and your origin. Don’t punish your sister for what I did. Take care of each other. That is my only request. I know there is no excuse for what I did, but I tried to do everything a parent could do for her children. I hope that is enough for you to forgive me.” She coughed, “I’m really sorry.” She took her other hand joined our hands Ashley’s and mine with hers,

“I love you both, the years I raised you two were the best years I could ever wish for. I finally experienced what feels like being alive. My time has come, I have been in this world for far too long anyway. It’s time I rest as well.” She dropped her hands and just like that she was gone.

Ashley sobbed and I joined her. There was no way I could manage to stay angry at her after what she said. Ashley leaned on me and I held her until she stopped crying. Somehow mom’s body turned to ash and evaporated in the air. I looked at Rebecca who wasn’t surprised,

“Our bodies decompose quicker here.” She said.

We got up afterward and the body guards too were gone. So there was only three of us.

“I’m really sorry Steven. I didn’t know, if you decide to hate me now I will understand.” Ashley sadly said and guilt displaying all over her face.

“What are you talking about? You are my sister no matter what. Besides, you just saved my life so that compensate for whatever happened to our parents.” I grabbed her and hugged her. At first she
