Brian called out to her. "Hello, Alexia." Alexia looked back when she heard someone call her name. She scowled upon seeing Brian and hissed. "Here I was thinking it was someone better calling me. What are you doing here? This is a female section." "Shopping for my date if you must know," Brian replied. He faced the sales lady that followed him. "I would like to buy that gown." He pointed at the black gown. "Too bad. I'm about to pay for it." "Well, I want it." "Are you deaf? I said I'm about to pay for it." "But you haven't paid yet. So, I want it." "I asked for it first." She faced the sales lady beside her. "Here is my card." She handed her a black card. The second sales lady's eyes widened at the sight of the card. "I'll pay double the price for the gown," Brian said and brought out his black card. Both sales lady mouths hung open. They knew now that they weren't dealing with ordinary people. "Uhm..." The second sales lady hummed, not knowing what to do. "I'll pay trip

"Are you insane?" Alexia screamed and pushed Raymond away. "Let me have sex with you, then you'll get the money," Raymond growled. He tried to touch her again but Alexia slapped his hand. "I've told you before Raymond. I'm not ready for that yet." "When will you be ready, Alexia? When?" Raymond yelled. "Why do you care about sex so much?" "Because I have needs. Do you want to know what I was doing? I was jerking off because I haven't fucked for weeks. Isn't that your job as my girlfriend? To satisfy my needs?" Alexia scoffed. "What do you think I am? A sex machine? We aren't even married for crying out loud." "Bullshit." Raymond stomped his feet. Alexis sighed. She went closer to him and traced her finger on his forehead. "Ray, I understand you have needs. But I'm not ready yet. When I am ready, you can use me as you like OK?" She tickled the back of his ear. Raymond closed his eyes, enjoying the tickling. "Promise?" "Promise. Now, will you give me that money?" "Of cours

Even from the parking lot, you could immediately hear the music coming from the hall and could see students entering the school in black or purple formal ball dressings – tuxedos for males, ball gowns and tiaras for females – or semi-formal clothes. Several days had passed until the night of the Annual Ball. The students took the path to Dolly Hall where there was a queue at the entrance. To make the ball fair, only students who donated at least sixty dollars were allowed to enter. To prevent unwanted entry, a red velvet rope was attached to both sides of the doorway, creating an obstruction. Once you've checked, the velvet rope would be removed for the student or couple to enter. The hall was decorated beautifully by the committee. Glass tables and seats were arranged orderly around the dance floor. An amphitheater where a DJ blasted music in the air was placed at the front wall, facing everyone. There was joy in the air. Students were seated, talking excitedly among themselve

"Charlene," Dalton called as he drew closer to the parking lot where Charlene stood. Charlene crossed her arms and glared at him. "What took you so long?" Dalton scratched his head, looking guilty. "I was delayed at work, so by the time I got ready, it was late. My motorcycle tyres went flat and I had a hard time finding a taxi so...I'm sorry." "You could have called me or something." "My phone died. Sorry. I'm the worst date ever, right?" "No no. Of course not. Just be careful next time." "Advice taken, madam." Dalton bowed curtly. Charlene laughed. "Wow, you look so beautiful." complimented Dalton. They both decided to wear semi-formal clothes to the ball. Charlene wore a purple sparkly jacket on a white sleeveless shirt and a black pleated skirt with pink sneakers. "Thanks. You look cuter tonight." Dalton's face flushed. He wore a black leather jacket on a blue shirt, with blue jeans and blue sneakers. His hair seemed to have become redder and fluffier. "I like your

Melanie laughed again unable to tell if Alexia was lying or serious. Had she gone stupid and fallen in love with Raymond or was she just pretending? But before she could ask, Brian and Raymond arrived at the table."What's funny?" inquired Brian.Trying to suppress her laughter, Melanie replied. "Alexia was just telling me a joke."Alexia gritted her teeth.Brian and Raymond had the same look of confusion on their faces. Since when did they start bonding?"Anyway, where is my food?" Melanie asked after her laughter died down.Brian's eyes widened. He hit his palm on his forehead. "Dang it. I knew I was forgetting something."The bet he made with Raymond caused him to forget the reason why he was there in the first place. Melanie crossed her arms. "What have you been doing all this while?""Hey, Alexia. Wanna dance?" Raymond asked."Yes." Alexia, who was grateful for the opportunity to leave, got up and took Raymond's hand. Together, they stepped away from the exclusive table.Brian

Gabe tightened his grip and pushed Brian's hand downwards. His biceps popped out his short sleeve.Brian applied the same amount of force in pushing Gabe's hand, resting his hips on the table."Gabe! Gabe!! Gabe!!!" cheered the students around supporting Gabe. But it was obvious they were evenly matched because their arms kept moving back and forth after a minute.Gabe frowned. Since when did Brian become this strong? He thought he would have won under thirty seconds. Turns out he was wrong. But that doesn't mean Brian was stronger. He added more force to his push. "Getting tired, already?" Brian scorned. Gabe grunted and pushed harder. His muscles popped stronger.Brian chuckled. He squeezed his hand around Gabe's knuckles and wriggled his palms, wriggling his knuckles too.Gabe hissed, feeling the joints of his knuckles crack. The distraction was enough for Brian to suddenly apply a large amount of force and pin Gabe's hand on the table."Whooo," the student cheered and clapped.

Brian struggled to keep his arm from moving downward. The way Raymond kept his hand on his made it difficult for him to move. He recognized this technique as the one Melanie always used to defeat him. He had never won when Melanie used this technique. What would be do?Raymond kept pressing harder and harder. "Raymond! Raymond!! Raymond!!!" The whole students cheered when they saw that Raymond was gaining the upper hand. Brian knew he had to do something or he would fail. Then he remembered a technique Charlene thought hi.He dropped his wrist back. This made it harder for Raymond to push his arm down. He frowned and exerted more force. Brian grunted but held his position. The students stopped cheering and watched what was going on.Raymond kept pushing and pushing but the way Brian dropped his wrist made it hard to push. Eventually, Raymond's arm started to ache and tremble. He didn't want Brian to know this so he put on a confident smile like he was winning.The students saw t

"SURPRISE." Brian's heart skipped as applause and cheers filled his ears. He blinked repeatedly and looked. The living room was crowded with a lot of people, at least two dozen and they were all clapping and cheering. Edward and Rosanna stood in front of them with smiles on their face. Conan was behind them, grinning. About two dozen of Nightbirds, Gray Guardians, and Butterflies also filled the room. Brian looks around. There was a line of flag pennants attached to the ceiling, together with flags with letters forming the word, "Happy Coronation." "Welcome home, honey." Rosanna stepped forward and hugged Brian. "I...you guys didn't have to throw a welcome home party for me," Brian said after they separated. "This is not a welcome home party, silly." Rosanna laughed softly. "What is it then?" Edward stepped forward to explain. "Well, it's the tradition of the Addams to celebrate the heir of the family on their eighteenth birthday. Kinda like an heir coronation. But with the gi

Brian became dumbstruck after Lana dropped the bombshell. Charlene's mouth hung open, Melanie covered hers while Dalton was the one who spoke in astonishment. "She's-what now?" "The person that called said she tried to carry out an abortion, but...it..." Tears streamed out of her eyes. Brian didn't need the complete statement to understand. His ex-girlfriend was dead. Alexia Baker was gone from this world forever. Brian exhaled deeply. Perhaps, if he was still dating her he would have burst into tears and rushed to the hospital like an insane person to hug her corpse and cry harder. But he didn't do that. His sadness for her death wasn't overwhelming. She wasn't worth his tears. But that didn't mean he wanted her dead. Alexia, just like Patricia, did horrible things but they didn't deserve death. They could have changed their ways and lived better. "I told her not to do it. This is all my fault." Lana continued crying, refusing to wipe her cheeks which were wet with tears. "

"Nebula news. Just last night, the kidnappers responsible for the disappearances going on in our city were caught and abducted. The victims were unharmed and saved. And sources tell us this was possible only because of a young man called Brian Ashton..."Brian could still remember the news as he was seated in the middle row of seats in the Dolly Hall.Just as he thought, the news about Brian saving the victims spread like wildfire that in three weeks, Brian was like a celebrity in the city.All the victims were returned to their families after being checked on in the hospital. Brian received a lot of thank-you messages from them on social media. Brian couldn't be happier.The children in Richard's mansion were also returned to their families. And what more?Brian snitched on Gabe and his friends about his connection with the kidnaps and his drug dealing. They were now in the police station, preparing for his verdict.These last few days were nice. Students now treated Brian like a cel

"He escaped." Dalton completed. "What? How?" Brian exclaimed. "We tried holding him but some guards came to his rescue. We were outnumbered." Melanie explained. Brian curled his fist. He should have sent some men to help them. But then, he wasn't expecting them to be outnumbered. "Did you see anyone with dreadlock run this way?" Brian asked Arata. Arata shook his head. "We guarded here heavily. No one left or entered." Brian's brows furrowed. How did Raymond escape? Was there some kind of secret passageway or tunnel in the house? Melanie let out a weak gasp and winced. The pain on her side was getting intense. Brian returned his attention to her and stared at her side. She seemed to have been stabbed where she was stabbed previously at Alexia's place. She needed treatment immediately. Just then, a deep voice boomed, causing Brian to jump a bit. "FREEZE." Brian turned. Blood drained from his face at what he saw. Several men barged into the compound. They were all armed

"You are not the only one with a bullet vest here." Miss Claudine cackled and pointed her black pistol at him again. "You are all dead meat."Before she could pull the trigger, Dalton moved and kicked her hand. Her gun skidded from her hand and she yelped."You must have forgotten you are outnumbered," Dalton said. "No one is dead meat except you."Miss Claudine straightened up."It's over." Brian raised his gun at her. A gunshot was heard in the hallway, causing Brian to turn. Two guards lay on the ground meters from them. They were shot by the Nightbirds.Raymond took advantage of the distraction. He grabbed Melanie's hand and twisted it.Melanie winced in pain and left her gun. Then, Raymond delivered a kick on her abdomen which propelled her towards Brian. As Brain caught her, he and Miss Claudine took off in the direction of the stairwell. Dalton raised his hand to shoot but they started moving in a zigzag manner making it difficult for Dalton to target. They entered the stairw

Brian's heartbeat increased its rate as he glanced at the guards pointing their guns at them as if they prepared for this moment their whole life. Melanie and their others stood in the same state of shock as Brian. The guards were about ten in number. Some of the guards stepped forward and took their guns, leaving them with no means to defend themselves. "Awn, sweet Brian thought his plan would work. Haha." Miss Claudine cackled maniacally. "But we were already one step ahead." Brian gritted his teeth at the sight of his Business Law teacher. Nothing had changed about her except that she was wearing a black shirt and black leather jeans, something he thought he would never see her wear. Her dimples, which once gave her a nice look, now made her look sinister with the wicked grin. "Long time no see." Raymond chirped in. Brian glared at him. Raymond also wore black like everyone else and for the first time, Brian saw Raymond without his earrings or chains. His dreadlocks dangled on

Conan tapped a button on the control unit of the kit after Brian's order and sent the command to the transmitter. Instantly, the lights went off and the area was covered in darkness. Brian tapped the button by his glasses and jumped out. He started seeing in radioactive green through the glasses. He moved towards the fence with the others. Just like they planned, the Nightbirds stood on the shoulders of the Gray Guardians. The Guardians stood up, lifting the Nightbirds to touch the electric wire.Since the power supply had been disrupted, they were able to touch the wire without being electrocuted. They snapped the wire quietly with wire cutters. Still on the Guardian's shoulders, they shot all the guards they found in the compound. As if fate was on their side, the cloud had covered the full moon, so the darkness thickened a bit.After they'd shot the guards, they indicated to the guardians that the coast was clear by tapping their feet on their shoulders.The Guardians lifted the

The black Sienna drove through the road in the forest. The headlights were dimmed to avoid easy spotting so Dalton had to drive carefully because of the limited light. Luckily, the full moon helped with some illumination. Some meters behind, two black minivans, in which Richard, Sasha, and the rest of the men and women were in, trailed behind. For some reason unknown to Brian, the cars made little noise as they moved. The laptop stood on the middle of the car dashboard. They were following the dot on the map which was still moving on the water as represented on the map. There was another dot on the map. It was a blue dot that represented them, enabling them to know how far they were from the kidnappers. The two dots were meters apart, the red dot being by the right and ahead of the blue one. Brian's uneasiness came back for a moment but he shoved it aside. He had started this already, so there was no point being negative. "Will our gas be enough for the whole journey?" Brian inq
Chapter Sixty-two
Brian watched in amazement as a Nightbird, whose name was Killian (he was apparently the best voice imitator and actor they had), put on a Mohawk wig that resembled Gabe's hair. His face had already been covered with makeup, giving him Gabe's complexion. His eyes were covered with contact lenses, giving him Gabe's blue eyes color. "Wow, this is impressive work," Brian said to Sasha was just finishing applying the makeup. She bowed and smiled. "Thank you." "Now for the voice part. How's it going?" Killian took out his earpiece with which he had been listening to Gabe's voice. "How's this?" He cleared his throat and changed his facial expression to an angry one. He looked just like Gabe. "Hey, dude. What the hell are you doing?" He spoke in a voice that almost sounded like Gabe's if not for the deepness and pitch. Brian nodded again, impressed with what he witnessed. "Wow. How did you do that?" "Well, I've been listening to his voice since today so I studied his speech tone an
