Chapter 26

"No that was gruesome my dear brother". "Some balls you've got my baby brother you've really grown". "You know I keep wondering did you have some kind of grudge with Kent, I mean three shots in one spot that was amazing". "Who was to get the head again". "I'll do that master, the Guardian is waiting for you at the other side". "You'll be going by yourself?" "Yes sir, rest assured the head will be well delivered to the council". "Let's go". Brandon walks away with Damon following after him they get to the master who is waiting for them by the green city. "Such a nice place it looks like a depictions of what an amazing world would look like a world without any terror or pain in the ass like kent". Damon comments as soon as they get there. "Nice decision Damon I have to say I didn't doubt even for a minute that you would execute well even without me or Brandon". "I didn't do nothing but trust in you both and in your capability and experience, although for a minute I wondered if you guys had played a prank on me and if I should play one back on you". "Why didn't you?" Brandon asked " 'Cause the guy in that room for way too cheeky, and was half threatening me cause of a chick he had waiting for him just imagine that". "Well,if you care yo listen thanks for making me proud once again you have proven to me that I made the right choice". "Thanks father". "What's with the sudden change". "I should ask you all of a sudden you're complementing me like you got your death date, did something happen in my absence". "What could possibly happen in your absence, don't ever estimate my boy, it's home time". "What! You're going home with us?" Damon asked bewildered. "No, you're going home with me". "What! No way, I came with the siblings of course we'd have to go home together, you go first master I'll join you". " Really, if you say so then fine". "Dad". Damon called out exasperated. He obviously dare not go home unless the master willingly dismisses him. "It's not going to work, you're returning with me". The Guardian says and begins to walk away. "Tell the kids I had an emergency". "Fine, I'll see you tonight". "You're coming to the world, really, for what". "I'm a vampire, an elder , also master of the Palace, are you joking around". Brandon said giving him a are you kidding look. "Yes, yes, I know, tell the kids I'm sorry I couldn't go home with them I was hijacked by a beauty, see them tomorrow". Damon said and walks away blowing a kiss. "Gross". "Brandon". Aurora called out they had gotten to the jeep and both brothers were nowhere to be found so Aurora had asked Paul and Arianna to wait by the car while she goes to look for them. "Aurora, what are you doing here, the lads?" "They are over at the car we got there and couldn't find you or Damon so I told them to wait while I come to get you guys". "Good, let's go meet them and go home". "Where's second brother?" "Oh, he had an appointment he said to go first, he would meet us at home let's just go". " Okay then, who was that man and what World, what is going on what are you and second brother hiding from us? I saw you standing here with that man from earlier". "Hold on you saw the man before". " Yes I did, he saw us when we just got into the park and said something about an agent's creed and wanted us to follow him but then he found out we were not the agents he was looking for and said we could go then he left and I don't know what happened after that but now I see that man standing here with my two brothers, definitely you guys are hiding something from us". "Aurora". "And you know what, while we were in the ghost house, we heard a gunshot, in fact the shot was fired four times and before then there was chatters, sound of people talking and laughing, it sounded like a bar, what is going on in this place?" " Aurora that is not for you to know this is definitely not for kids". "Well, if it wasn't maybe you guys should have tried everything you could do to hide it properly so that we wouldn't find out, but now that we have, I think you owe us an explanation". " I owe you no explanation Aurora, now let's get going". " I wouldn't take a step from this place if you do not tell me what's going on and I am very sure you wouldn't want me to repeat this in front of Ariana and Paul so why don't we finish talking before going to the car". "Are you threatening me?" "Well if it sounds like a threat to you, then so be it. I made a promise to Ariana to protect her from whatsoever is out there, so you have to tell me what is out there so I know what I'm protecting her from". " You can hardly protect yourself and you want to protect somebody, really?" " Well I promised aunt Fiona that I would protect Arianna I swore on our family name that as long as I am with her nothing is going to happen to Ariana, until aunt Fiona gets back. Are you going to tell me or shall we have this conversation in the car?" "All right, can you tell me what the man said when he saw you guys". "Which man". "The man I saw you with just now?" "Yes". "Well, he said something about it not being time yet and that we should be patient and something about me and some kind of trash he just kept spitting out". "well that man was absolutely right, it is not time yet, when it is time you will find out about everything and I sincerely hope when the time comes you would be able to face the truth".
