Denver stood in the hidden room but in reality it looked like a giant cave. He steps forward. At first he couldn't understand what he was looking at but he was slowly understanding."I am the gatekeeper." The ancient looking man suddenly makes an appearance."Hello..." he said sounding puzzled."I have been waiting for you." the man said. He turned around. " Follow me. You must claim what's by birthright yours.""What are you talking about?" Denver step forward to follow the man. He had to blinked a few times when he realized the ancient man was moving with incredible speed.Denver stood on a platform. He turned to look around back the way he came. He had to blink several times as it appears as though he has walked a long way."What is this place?""Everything is not what it seems sir. Do me the honor and placed your hand on the palmprinter."Denver looked at the man. Each time he placed his hand somewhere trouble jumps out at him."I don't want to." he said shortly."You don't have a
Denver placed his open palm on the palm reader. He watched Raven following him. The twins joined hands placing theirs on the palm reader. The monitors seemed to pulled them into a kind of vortex. They saw each other being pulled into different directions. It was quickly clear tthat no one has a choice. Denver suddenly made his appearance in the house on Rumble's Corner. He found himself standing in front of the door. He knew he just need to step through back into his past. He looked back but the only thing he noticed was the curtains moving from the house just across from his."Why are you just standing there boy?" His father suddenly stood in the now opened door. He looked displeased."I am coming." he looked back. Everything seemed the same but it's not. Taking a deep breath. "Might as well find out what this was all about." he told himself."Where have you been Denver," Daniel Ricardo looked very annoyed. "I am sorry. But why are you angry?""You really dare to ask me that quest
Denver stood looking at the girl he always thought was the most beautiful girl in the world. He briefly looked at his hand. The throbbing was less intense. He quietly wonders if he had worn the ring earlier; might he was noticed what was really gling on. He knows the girl in front of him will also disappear since he had watch her leave this world."Danny..." Lisa stood looking over the lake. The water was calm."Why did you ask me to come here? It's not like we move in the same social circles.""Please...don't judge me with who I am friends with." She still looked away from him.Denver decided to be quiet. He knows he was walking in the footsteps of the past. His reality and her current one was different. He stood beside her waiting until she was ready to talk."You are Denver Ricardo. That's your true name?" she questions sounding uncertain."What a curious way to ask me. You know that's my name.""I am just making sure. I heard a urban myth telling a story about your name." She fina
"Denver; open your eyes." the voice calls beside him. He looked puzzled trying to see who was calling him. It was clear the fool didn't realized his eyes was opened.He tries to get loose from the shackles but it took a moment before he understood his body was in reality motionless."Will you focus." the male voice said behind him."Where are you?" he forced his lips to move."I am behind you.""Why don't you help me?" He asked with growing frustration."I already helped you. This you must do on your own. You don't focus. Look around you.""I am." he said annoyed."No you are not. Look around. You are not tied to that wall.""Danny..." he heard his name.Denver moved his body. He nearly fell flat on his face before he understood he was free with movement. He quickly looked around until he saw her."Lisa..." he kneel beside her naked body. She feels cold and it was clear the sexual damage that was done to her body."I don't want to live anymore. " she whispered brokenly."What do you w
"Six months...six days and six hours." Denver talked into his microphone."I am also in position." answered Raven. " I have eyes on the twins.""That is good. I am going to approach the mansion now.""Be careful. We don't know what trap she might have set. ""I know. That's one devious woman." Denver looked at the estate across from where he stood. He has been keeping a sharp eye on that building. He looked at his outfit. Dressed smartly in the most expensive suit he could find on short noticed. He check his mental state...once he thought himself a loser and a fool. But he had discovered there was more than one type of truth.He walked back towards his car and climbed inside. He discovered his children was smart and just as devious. His son; Leo had told him to blend into the background. He feels proud wearing the suit he had picked and ordered. The black sport car was also his idea.Once he started the car it simmers into visibility. While he was being transported back to his past to
"Leo what's happening? I was cut from the line." Raven asked urgently. They promised to work as a team. She refuse to lost Denver again."We will send you the feed mommy."Raven can feel in her body something swift in the air. She start to circle the upstairs bedroom. She had managed to slip in there when she followed the man that looked like her dead father in law."Leo...""Be careful mommy. We senses an intruder.""Is it here in the mansion or with you?" Raven sounded worried."We are protected mommy." Lea explained.Raven suddenly become quiet. She carefully looked around in the bedroom. It had belonged to Cathy Cole Ricardo when she was a teenager.While looking for a way to protect herself; she had found the girl's crawl space. Without waiting for confirmation about the intruder; she start to move.Aiden Cole slipped from the room. It had taken careful reaching before Vincent managed to stop the order.

"Where is the other man?" Denver repeat his question."He is sleeping permanently." Aiden said gleefully."Okay."Denver carefully avoid looking at Raven."Sit down Aiden. I want to finish. Since the whole structure was drastically change; I want to know my truth. Hopefully we won't be seeing each other ever again." Vincent said icy.Aiden makes sure Raven sits down beside him. He suddenly realized he was learning their truths which will also expose his own dealings. He lookef at the man who he was let to believe was his nephew. This whole story was a mess. Each road only seemed to broken down ahead before starting a new path."Are you all ready?" Vincent has his hand close to the palm reader.Ever one just nods there head.Denver moved to place his hand down first. Raven quickly followed before either Vincent or Aiden could move.Once the final four men joined Denver smiled."Are you ready son?""Yes daddy." "What's going on?" Vincent was alarmed.

Two years...Denver and Raven walked towards the Hotel Ricardo Saint-Claire. They both has a hard look about them. Since the abduction of their children; they had becone the errand boys for one crazy man.Denver hold tightly onto the briefcase. He briefly looked at Raven. They no longer feel the need to talk. Both found a way to connect with each other."Hello sir. I have reserved the room for you." The hotel manager eagerly walked ahead of them.

He looked at the man who can't seem to control his giggling."You have done well. Okay asked that fool just outside the door to bring it to me. It's goin
