Inspector Lui and Dr. Sun sat together, hands intertwined. It was like the time should just stand still and never end. They shared another beautiful kiss, enveloped by the romantic atmosphere surrounding them. They went further to talk about Serpens and how he was dealing with the fact that his powers were no longer with him.“I hope he is handling it well?” Dr. Sun said, her voice gentle and filled with genuine concern.“Serpens is a strong kid. He'll pull through. I know his powers will return.” Inspector Lui replied.“You think so?”“I know so,”After another couple of minutes, it was time for Inspector Lui to return home.He took Dr. Sun's hands in his, staring into her beautiful eyes. It was completely Magic. He felt lost in them.“We'll see again, maybe weekend.” Inspector Lui said, his eyes filled with warmth and affection.Dr. Sun nodded, “Yes we will.”She hugged him the tightly, her head resting on his well built masculine frame, as she listened to his heart beat with the r
Inspector Lui arrived at the water fountain in Brookville where inspector Chan had summoned him to. From where he parked his car, how could tell that all was not well.The scene was chaotic , with the flashing light of police cars casting eerie shadow over the gathered crowd. Panic was written in the faces of the few people who were around.Yellow crime scene tape cardoned off the area, and the murmur of concerned voices filled the air. “This is terrible!” A concerned passerby exclaimed.Pushing his way through the throng of onlookers, inspector Lui's heart sank as he approached the centre of the commotion. There, lying on the ground, was a young man was a young man, his lifeless body splayed out in a gruesome display.“Oh my God!” He exclaimed, as he beheld the lifeless form on the ground. His heart had been ripped to pieces, a whole left there to let everyone know what had been done.A knot tightened up in his stomach as he noticed a distinctive mark on the man's chest - a skull cru
Winter stood in the shadowed alley, his impatience evident as he waited for Yul who had called him requesting that they meet up. Yul had been fed up with Winter's recent behaviour. He doesn't return calls, replies messages or even attend meetings. If there was something Yul hated so much, it was being taken for granted and that was Winter was doing with his recent conduct.Yul approached with a determined look on his face. He was ready to bash Winter and to tell him that he was no longer part of the group since his loyalty was no longer to the group but to himself."Winter," Yul began, his voice steady but laced with frustration, "we need to talk. You've been ignoring our mission, abandoning the group. What happened to our plan to take down the Serpens? This wasn't the initial plan. You've become insensitive and disloyal to us."Winter's eyes narrowed, a dangerous glint appearing in their depths. He remained silent, letting Yul's words hang in the air. The tension grew palpable, and
Xin who had always been plagued by her nightmares, started having them once again. The nightmares had actually started when she was a kid but old man Xue, decided to suppress them using a powerful serum which he stumbled upon during his days of adventures.It was during those adventures that he met a strange lady who told him that his only daughter would give birth to a child, a powerful daughter who will play a major role in restoring peace and balance to the world.On the day that Xin was born, it had rained heavily with flashes of lighting and ferocious roaring thunder. It was a time that Old man Xue would never forget in a hurry. Not because, a new member was added to his family, but because it was the day he lost his only daughter Nana.When Xin began to grow up and the nightmares began to come, he went back to the woman who had told him the prophecy about his granddaughter to help him put an end to it. The woman gave him a special serum but told him a time will come when the ser
Professor Layton's hands trembled slightly as he picked up the phone and dialed Serpens's number. After finding out that there was still a way to help Serpens in fulfilling his mission, a wave of relief had washed over him.He couldn't afford to waste any more time. As the phone rang, he anxiously tapped his fingers on the edge of his desk, glancing at the ancient book now lying open before him.Finally, the call connected. "Hello?" Serpens's voice came through, tired but alert."Serpens, it's Professor Layton," Professor Layton began, his voice filled with urgency. "I’ve found something—something incredibly important. It could be our way of finding the draconic gem before the solstice even without the map and the compass."Serpens's tone shifted immediately, sensing the gravity of the call. "What is it, Professor?""I've been going through my old books, searching for anything that might help us," Professor Layton explained, his words coming out in a rush. "I found an ancient text tha
The sky was overcast, reflecting the somber mood of the small gathering at the cemetery. Friends and family of Yul had come to mourn. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves of the nearby trees, adding a soft, mournful sound to the quiet scene.It was a very sad sight to behold as everyone came dressed in black, a reflection of the sadness that the moment had cast upon everyone.Jack, Yul's father, wore a somber expression. Even if he made it appear to everyone that Yul had been a coward and had taken his own life, he still felt the pain of having lost a son.Among the mourners was Tiara. She stood by the freshly dug grave, her eyes red from crying, a deep sorrow etched across her face. Beside her was Cheong, who tried to comfort her, though he himself was clearly struggling with the weight of the loss.As the ceremony continued, Serpens quietly stood quietly at a spot where no one could see him. He felt a knot of guilt and sadness in his chest, knowing that Yul's death was a tragedy that
Serpens arrived home, feeling the weight of the day’s events pressing down on him. The words of Cheong still echoed in his ears - "You were a part of the chaos." He just couldn't understand why Cheong would say such a thing to him. Stepping down from his bike, he made his way towards the door.As he opened the door, he was greeted by the sight of Lan who had been waiting for him for almost an hour. However, he was surprised to see her and his sister pulling along very well like they've always known each other.“Hey,” Lan said softly, standing up from the couch. “Hey,” Serpens replied, walking over to her and greeting her with a warm kiss. "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long," He went further to apologize.“Its okay," Lan said, wearing a warm smile. "How have you been?" She asked."I'm good," Serpens replied. "And you? How have you been?" "Good too. Just that, I’ve missed you,” she admitted, her eyes full of affection as they settled back onto the couch.“Same here,” Serp
As Serpens lay in bed that night, he couldn't shake off the question which Serena had asked him. Their parents had died when they were still kids. He was just six years old at that time and Serena was just three years old.Though he couldn't really remember everything that had happened, he could still remember some police officers coming to their house to break the news to Grandma Suki.Someone had assassinated his parents. Someone who had always envied his father but that was all he could remember. While he was still in deep thoughts, his phone buzzed and it was a call from Lan. He had forgotten to call her after promising he'd do so."I've been waiting for your call," Lan began, after he picked up the phone to answer the call."Sorry, I forgot." Serpens apologized. "I was talking to Serena and I lost track of time. I'm really sorry.""It's fine. I just thought of reminding you that I'm home. I got home about thirty minutes ago." Lan said. "Extend my warmest regards to Serena. I rea
