At Darwin's Residence...

Darwin paced back and forth anxiously waiting at the entrance door, checking his watch every now and then.

Samantha who was playing gulf at the Darwin's mansion field could see from afar that his dad was anxious. Desperate to live again and right his wrongs. She lost his mother to a rival regiment when she was eight and as such was trained by Darwin,her father and that cemented a bond between them.

Samantha too was scared, she couldn't imagine her dad kicking the bucket,thus she hope Drake comes very soon that's if he dad didn't die from being overly anxious.

She walked briskly through the narrow part and met her dad with his hands on his head expressing the grief of being dead while still alive. He just had a glimmer of hope,maybe the young boy could save him.

"Dad.....are you feeling alright? I think that boy was just bullshitting and spouting what he doesn't know. I have a friend in Ninbe city,she said they have good doctors who practiced the soul resurrection technique, they could have a cure for you" Samantha said those words while she caressed her dad's back to calm him down.

"My daughter, I'm still suffering, your mother died all because of me and the young man didn't spout nonsense. During the fight against the lion regiment, a punch at my chest severed my sino atrial node,I have always inclined to secrecy this information. No doctor had been able to diagnose it. How come he knew by just mere scrutinization. He surely does know a way to save me"

Darwin sighed grimly and continued 'i have kept this with me for over twelve years,I didn't want you to panic or worry I may just fall down and die someday.

Stupefied by the revelation. Samantha fondled her father's hand, consumed in panic. "Dad nothing will happen......I have already invited a team of doctors and they'll arrive very soon!"

" Let's wait for the young boy!, I'll be alright" as the words came out, he looked at his watch again and looked up at the entrance hoping to see the figure coming in.

What he saw was different, he couldn't take cognizance of the approaching figure but he had same physique as the young boy from the other day.

He looked at him closely as he approached and was filled with delight,he ran towards him and held his hands.

"Thanks for honouring my invitation please.. this way sir.." Darwin heaved a sigh of relief and motioned at the direction.

Drake knew Darwin was worried even before he showed up.

When samantha saw the figure, she was quite taken aback and stood still for a few second. The tenderness in her eyes she realized wasn't there had grown. Her eyes lit up at once. She looked him up and down before commenting 'i didn't expect you to have such potential, you're handsome!. Why did you have to let your beards grew so much?'

With the admiration in her gaze,she could feel she was sweating out already, something about the figure seemed to arousing her emotionally and sexually. His eyes and hair all well trimmed.

"So, ho....hot!" She exclaimed and when she noticed that she just covered her mouth immediately wanting whine back time and not say what she had just said. But it was late, she just hoped nobody heard her.

But true to Drake''s supersensitivity,he heard her perfectly,upon noticing the admiration still in her gaze and sudden change in body language Drake couldn't resist looking at himself and was amused he was more strikingly handsome than before.

'Eeich!!!!' Samantha flipped her finger like she touched something hot or something bit her. 'it is hot!' she said at loud when it alarmed Drake and Darwin. That was pretence, she felt awkward knowing Drake might have heard her thus she wanted to cover what she said "so hot!."

Watching Drake smiled,she walked up to him and blocked his path. She fumed, "What the hell is wrong with you?,my father had waited like forever for you to arrive. And didn't you notice that his condition is deteriorating? Do you even have any medical skills? Or you're a scammer?"

Samantha had felt indignant about Drake from the very beginning. However, she gave him the benefit of the doubt considering that he had been able to minimize her father's condition from getting worse or being dead.

"Samantha,stop making a fuss and apologize immediately!" Darwin barked with an exacting look.

" Young man,don't worry about my daughter. I can apologize on her behalf" he added.

" No Dad,I wouldn't do that. This dude can't obviously be a miracle doctor. He doesn't even have a license!. I think he wants to curry a favour or something"

Drake sighed turned and faced Darwin who gestured at him not to feel angry.

In a blink of an eye, they were at Darwin's niche in the Darwin's mansion.

"Cough! Coughs!!" Darwin coughed out intensely as he was about to speak.

Darwin's cheek was loosing colours again, Samantha got alarmed and dashed forward to render her father support. Despite anything to the contrary, she was affright upon noticing the coughing wouldn't stop and the black coloured blood that were being coughed out.

At the sight of scene, Drake furrowed his brows as he realized that Darwin's injury had deteriorated so badly, he even wondered how he survived for so long.

"Quick,lay him on the bed! And bring me a first aid box with stylostixis needles!" With the state of preparedness of Drake he ordered Samantha who was already overwhelmed with the feelings of fear.

Unfortunately,she didn't move at all, "How can a doctor not be with his medical kits? This dude is obviously a scammer!, My Dad would die if I let this man treat my Dad".

Frowning at Samantha's intransigence and inaction Drake snapped and barked. "Do you want to watch him die?"

After she was shouted at, out of panic she did as she was told.

Samantha felt there were no silver of hope,as Drake felt Darwin's pulse, the way he reacted, his expression turned grim upon knowing the condition was worse than he had originally thought. "But he had to save him" so he said to himself.

Samantha picked up her phone in an attempt to reach out to their family doctor but the network coverage was bad. Feeling so apprehensive,she didn't know when she started urging Drake to ensure her father gets treated.

"My Dads life is in your hands now, please save him for me!"

Darwin was Gradually loosing consciousness as his breathing got seriously labored. He jerked up as if trying to catch his breath and fell back.

As Drake was opening the first aid medical bag to practicalize one of the techniques that he had learnt form Shinigami at the island, A team of doctors each with a medical bag, Three of which were bespectacled and the other with a stethoscope around her neck.

"Move away!" Samantha pushed Drake aside,the team of doctors were opening their medical bags and the one with a stethoscope around her neck was placing the stethoscope on Darwin's chest to percept the heartbeat.

"Beating is getting slower!, Double compression" She ordered her collegues who incidentally were all males. She seemed like the head.

Samantha could see light at the other end of the tunnel upon seeing the medical skills the team of doctors were displaying. She felt maybe they could save her father. However, she was still unsettled upon noticing that the double compression two of the doctors had been doing was doing nothing to revive Darwin.

The doctors turned Darwin sideways horizontally. One was compressing his chest while the other was compressing so from Darwin's back,thus Double compression. The other two doctors were arranging some silver needles into pairs after sterilizing them with some greenish yellow fluid.

Samantha felt so distraught that she was on the brink of tears.
