The interrogation started the next morning and Lucy was ready for whatever they were going to ask. She had spent the night with both Gideon and Brandon, and they did talk a lot. It was not easy, because they asked about all the people she killed and part of it, she sincerely couldn’t even remember. When she was ‘released’ to attack them, she was much more controlled by Krasner and the drug inside her body, along with the device inside her brain, made her put her humanity aside and become a killing machine. “And how did you wake up?” One of the Elders asked and she glanced in the direction where Gideon was sitting along with Brandon. “I saw someone that made me confused. Gideon. Then, Brandon.” She said and the Elders looked at each other. There was denying that she and the twins had a different connection and it would only make sense if she was to wake up to her right mind because of them. As much as people there were warriors, they knew love was strong. It created a bond, a link
Almost a month had passed and Lucy trained every day. Chung-hee sat down with the Clan Leader and they had a talk about the latest developments. “I think, Chung-hee, it's time for you to go home.” He said. “I agree, but we need to take every precaution.” "Don't worry. I already arranged the plane.” The Leader said. “You just need to talk to the boys and the girl who is their wife.” The leader spoke making a strange face. “I will speak to them.” Chung-hee promised, and later that day he went to see those interested in returning home. “Brandon, Gideon, Lucy… it's time we returned home.” He announced and Brandon grinned. He liked the place, but he wanted to see his father, he wanted to know how everything was going. “And Rindley?” Lucy asked. "He will, too, of course. In fact, he is very valuable right now, as he will be able to vouch for everything you say. He was a victim of Krasner himself, so it is imperative that he accompany you." Chung-hee replied. Preparations were made an
As soon as they got off the plane, the police were already waiting for them, obviously. Chung-hee had warned them, as he didn't want to get there illegally. It would worse the whole situation. The police saw Lucy and found that what Chung-hee told them had a chance of being true, after all, the girl who was presumed dead and the cause of Friedrich Ashford's arrest was alive. And then, the convict got off the plane. However, right behind him, an identical man!“Apparently, Mr. Chung-hee Jin did not lie. Men are twins… but who is who?”There was a file with Friedrich's physical characteristics, the problem was that men were the same even in that. They both had the exact same tattoo!Lucy could easily tell the difference, but she kept silent. Even Rindley already had a way of telling them apart: Brandon's scar on the brow bone. Gideon had one around his neck.“Please follow us.”The plane did not go to the common part of the airport. They used the farthest lane, precisely so that the me
Augustina was waiting outside the sheriff's office with Rindley while her husband talked to the officer.She was beyond nervous.'I knew this girl was going to be trouble after all!' she thought irritably. Rindley could see that his mother was worried, as her knees were shaking and Augustina had a bad habit when she was like that: she bit the skin around her fingernails. Something she would certainly reproach her children for, but she did it subconsciously when she was VERY nervous.He wondered why she was like this. The father had mentioned that there was a possibility that they had found Lucy's body, which Rindley knew was not true. Augustina never seemed to have much affection for Lucy, and Rindley found that strange. The girl was always good, sweet, kind, polite. Besides, wouldn't it be more normal for a mother to want to pamper her precious daughter?Simon left the room, pale and Augustina wanted to question him, however, the delegate called her and a policeman went beside her, t
Rindley was sitting across from the deputy, thoughtful. He already expected that, because he wasn't so stupid as to never have suspected."So, you really didn't know about that?"“No, Deputy Sanders. I really didn't know. During my whole life I thought about it, after all, let's say that our mother was not the most affectionate with Lucy and I asked myself why.” Rindley said sadly, but he smiled. “Lucy is not her daughter. And she knows it very well.”The deputy nodded in agreement. He expected this. And he was glad to know that at least one person in the family didn't look rotten. The biological child wasn't as bad as the parents.“What will happen, sir?” Rindley asked. “I never raised the question with Lucy. She suffered a lot from Mom's indifference, and I honestly didn't know if that could be a good thing or not for her to know at this point.”“I'll talk to her. It's my job.” He said. “I will look into the hospital matter.”“Child theft.” Rindley spoke. It wasn't a question."Exac
“Look who's coming down the stairs! Giving us the air of grace!” A man Gideon had no idea who he was speaking to. "It is an honor!"“Ignore him.” Don whispered and Gideon nodded slightly.“Are you going to talk to me, little princess?” The man insisted and rubbed his hand over his own genitals. “He came back stronger. I'm dying to have a taste of you!"Gideon stopped walking and turned, smirking."Are you, now?" He asked and it was possible to see the man's smile falter slightly, but he kept his posture. “Why don't you get down on all fours, then? But only if you promise to swallow everything!”The man's eyes flashed with confusion and then anger. Friedrich had turned the tables, and now the surrounding inmates were laughing at the troublemaker."Go fuck yourself, motherfucker!" he yelled and Gideon laughed, taking a step forward. Next to him, that man was slight.“If you disrespect me again, I will fuck you!”"Fag!" He screamed.Gideon laughed.“It was you who was asking for a cock h
Brandon was stunned by the news that Ellie was pregnant with his father’s baby - or rather, older brother’s. But he was very happy. He couldn't remember seeing his father this happy in a long time.Ellie looked beautiful and radiant. She and William made a beautiful couple.“We are so glad you are here, Bran!” She said, hugging him. "I thought…"“Calm down, Ellie, I'm fine.” He hugged her back.“And your brother… my goodness, he's alive!” She sat down next to William, who was thoughtful.“My two children…” He smiled. “I couldn't be a more accomplished man, could I? Three kids…” He touched Ellie's belly.“I hope Gideon is okay. The police are still sorting out the question about my death and about Lucy. Until then, we need to be quiet.”"I know. Have you had contact with her?” Ellie asked."No." Brandon shook his head from side to side. "They want to make sure we're not talking and making up lies together."Ellie and William nodded their heads.“I hope this gets resolved soon. There is
Gideon wasn't quite sure what exactly he was supposed to say to her. He didn't know her. What if she was with Krasner? He would be lost if he told her everything and she recorded it. She would screw not just him, but Lucy and Brandon.“How can I trust you?” he asked, squinting as he looked at her. “I tell you everything and you are there recording. What happens then?"Wanda raised an eyebrow quickly as she looked at him.“So, you admit that there is a truth that I am not privy to?”"I don't know." He shrugged and pouted at her. "Perhaps."Wanda got up as she glanced once more at the clock.“I cannot continue here. You're not going to talk, are you?" She looked directly into his eyes as she approached, and Gideon felt almost hypnotized. “If you decide to talk, just ask for me. I need to go. I will ask the guard to take you back to your cell.”Gideon caught her wrist as she passed. Wanda looked from his hand and up Gideon's arm, until she reached his eyes.“You are pretty as fuck.” He m
