"What the hell?" Leo cursed as he stepped back from the car. It had been years since he last felt another member off his clan and he was feeling a bit overwhelmed by all the different sensations. He had a shocked look on his face and her even as he was terrified all he could think about was, 'I'm not the last any longer, I'm not the last' He repeated those words in his head as the person in the car stepped out. It was a young woman who couldn't have been more than the years older than him. She had blonde hair which was plaited in locks, she was average height and had big blue eyes which were here most defining feature.He was a few steps away from her ready to bolt if necessary. He was a few days in without food or water and even a rat could beat him in single combat in that state. He was fighting to remain on his feet and his eyes were feeling very heavy."Good day sir" the lady called out to him and approached but he retreated all the same. 'Never assume to know anyone's intention
"Who's this?" Helen asked into the phone as she frowned."Hi, are you friends with the owner of this phone?" The lady asked without responding to her question."Yes, and who are you?" Helen asked again with acid in her tone."All in due time Helen" the lady replied. Helen's name was on the caller ID just as Leo saved it."Where is he?" Helen asked making sure not to call Leo by name. From her earlier words she could tell that the speaker knew nothing about Leo."He's fine, in fact he's right here with me although he is unconscious" the lady replied."Unconscious?" Helen asked in surprise. "Yeah, he looked like he was running from something or someone. He was probably exhausted and from the look of things he hadn't eaten in at least a few days" the lady said again and Helen was even more confused now."Running from something? What?" She asked in her confusion."I don't know, only he can answer that and he's still unconscious for now" the lady said."Tell me where he is, I need to see
"Damn" Leo said as the dining room went grave yard silent upon his clumsy descent down the stairs. He struggled to get himself back on his feet and gave the six occupants of the seat a weak smile. "Good morning" he greeted them as he hobbled over to the dining table and took the seat with an empty chair beside it. They were all like him, he could feel it. He was surprised and happy to find more of his people but at that moment he wanted to eat and didn't really pay any mind to the others at the table. He grabbed a plate from the stack and stuffed some cakes from the table unto it. 'Mmmm, good' he thought to himself as he dug into the cakes. The others at the table simply watched in shock as he giggled down the cakes in seconds and moved over to the vegetable soup, he poured himself half of the entire pot and put his plates to his mouth and didn't take it out until every last drop off the vegetable soup was gone from the plate. He poured himself a glass of the fresh orange
"Let all be ware. A new dawn is coming. A beast shall walk the grounds of this town and when the sun shines anew, it shall burn away all that is old and the beast shall build itself a fortress from the bones of its enemies and all that defies it"The whole room went silent as they all recognized the words. Every member of the the Divine Clan knew those words and were all taught to know the implications."Yes, your parents and clan members were not killed for no reason. The false god is coming and they refused to be a part of his evil plans and that's why Terry Dubois killed them" Leo said to the shocked group."What about you? Did he spare you because you were his son?" Ross asked him in a suspicious tone that almost made Leo laugh. "Spare me because I was his son? You didn't hear what I said earlier? I met him in the Red Fruit Mangrove and he tried to kill me" Leo replied to the absurd suggestion. "I heard that but I want to know why you survived that night and not all the others"
"Who was the lady that brought you"Leo looked back at Helen in shock as he heard the words. She had not spoken a single word to him throughout their entire flight back home to the city. He kept on trying to ask what he did to make her angry but she ignored him and took a seat far away from his in the plane. Even in the taxi on the way home she still gave him the cold shoulder and it was not until they were back at the Jones family mansion that she finally confronted him about why she was mad. "Oh, is that why you were giving me all those wicked looks?" He answered her with a slight chuckle and she gave him a death glare to let him know that she was serious. "I told you I loved you and then you told me that you would tell me back when you got back but you never got back and Kyrian told me you were dead--""Wait Kyrian said I was dead?" Leo asked while cutting her sentence off. An action which she did not appreciate and she glared at him until he kept quiet."You then text me that yo
72Leo sat in front of the furnace in the living room holding a bottle of whiskey in his hands. The drink was untouched and he brought it to his lips a couple times as he sat there but he still didn't down it and he wasn't even sure why. He suddenly got up and threw the glass into the furnace and felt a little bit relieved to hear the glass break and the flames roar up as he fed it the alcohol. 'Fuck you Terry' he thought to himself as he refused to acknowledge Terry Dubois as his father in his head. He was worried about what the implications of it all meant and he knew his father wouldn't hesitate to strike him down if given the chance but he wanted to convince himself that he would do anything necessary to stop his father from achieving his malevolent goals.'Of course if it comes down to it I'd gladly give him the killing blow to pay him back for all the hurt his actions have caused me in my a life' he thought to himself as he walked over to the bar and poured himself another dr
Leo sat in front of the fireplace for a long time without even realizing it. By the time he came to his senses it was way too late to go home. He sighed and decided to go sleep in the guest room.He had reached the top of the stairs when he heard a single gunshot and he immediately became alert to any possible danger. He looked around and peered through the dark halls to see if anyone was with him in the room. He rushed over to the intercom and began buzzing each and every guard in the building but there was no response. That was when he knew something was wrong. He ran into the guest room closet and grabbed the bat he saw there the last time he slept in the room and waited at the top of the stairs for whoever was attacking the building. He felt around his belt and was satisfied to find his little knives still safe in their compartments on his belt. 'Assasins from Damon Fisher? Or Johnson Ax? Helen did kill his son so he has more reason for revenge now' Leo thought to himself as he
"What the hell just happened?" Johnson asked in rage. He was tired of having his plans foiled by Leonardo Dubois."I thought you said he was dead?" Arthur Columbus asked Damon in a confused tone?"I know, Terry told me that he killed him himself. I'm just as surprised as you to see him still at Helen's side. He's always been a thorn in our side and had always affected or plans negatively. Before we are ever truly going to be able to do anything to Helen Jones, we will have to take down Leonardo Dubois" Damon said to the group as he saw the anger and mistrust in all their eyes. "I'm beginning to doubt the fact that our god even speaks to you at all. How would he tell you that Leonardo was dead and then less than four whole days later we see Leo foiling or plans to take out Helen Jones" Johnson replied with a hard tone. "Mind the way you speak Johnson. There's a reason our god chose me as his voice. There's a reason I'm the only one able to go into the Red Fruit Mangrove and come out
