Rogan was terrified when he heard this random young lady's question, he sighed.
Rogan : " To be honest, sometimes I wish I did.
At least then, the last few months
would have made sense.
Serena stared him straight in the eyes, for longer than Rogan would have liked to admit he was comfortable with .
She then started emptying the last of her dried fruit snacks into Rogan's free hand and continued to read her book .
Rogan was slightly taken back at this sudden relaxed behavior she started displaying, which he thought would actually be more dramatic,chaotic or at least something a normal person would do .
He paused.
Then he directly built up the courage to ask ,
" How come you're not calling the authorities ?
I mean unless you believe me which I will let you know is crazy in itself,you should at least have gave me the 'no I don't believe you' look . "
Serena calmly paged the aged paper and proceeded to look up at him before answering "Your eyes were crystal clear with pain instead of regret.
You may be many things Mr.Rogan Kane, but so far yet have you to become a killer in this life."
Rogan truly believed that this girl in front of him escaped from some asylum.
" Well then how did you recognize me as the suspect,they didn't release my headshots of me being the suspect until about a month back . "
Rogan was really curious as to where this undeniably interesting girl came from and how indifferent he would have been a few months when his mother still lived.
"I have a photographic memory and on top of that you have a birth mark on your left hand that was listed as on of the key descriptions about you. If you're wondering why I can believe you so easily, it's because I have a great sense of intuition. In fact it's one of few things I believe I upstage my outstanding namesake on. I have never been led astray when listening to my instincts." Serena looked quite assured with herself as she said every word almost as if she was brimming with confidence as she uttered those words.
Rogan: "..."
" Well seeing as you're lost for words, tell me at least your legs work , you can walk me out the park plus I can at least be a cover for you because as it is you look like you're waiting for the rest of your mafia to arrive to have a secret family meeting . "
Again Rogan was lost for words "..."
He then began to stand up and gesture for her to lead.
Serena swiftly got her things together and proceeded to throw her blanket over her shoulders and walk quickly before turning back to call Rogan to pick up his pace.
As they walked at pace that Rogan was sure would qualify them for marathon racers, he begun to lose his stamina when they only had a third of the way left to go , he stopped and caught his breath before asking Serena if it was okay if they took the short break.
She complained she didn't wanna make her driver wait or something aling those lines because right after she started to proceed at an even faster pace .
Rogan sighed " Hufff...."
As they entered the final stretch towards the exit of the park, Rogan saw this tunnel bridge on their path out,of which he and Serena would have to walk through the tunnel while the bridge above is for cycling enthusiasts,while taking in the sightff
he noticed a young man with about the build of a gymnast and sporting a height around 5 feet . And as if true to his build the man was walking on the railing above them. It just so happen that the raling he was waltzing across was the one facing the direction from which they were coming from .
Rogan wanted to run up to ask the young man if he was into Parkcor and if so why is it necessary for the 15 metre tall tunnel bridge , he was almost about to go forward and ask when he l realized that the mysterious short gymnast looking dude was wearing a simple but terrifying set of Onyx Black colored antique Samurai armour complete with an Oni Mask that was clearly visible hanging on a piece of string off this mystery man's waist.
' I need to stop and get that old Goblin to take me to a real doctor after this, I think I'm seeing things .' thought Rogan.
But right then he heard a magnetic calm and collected voice
" To be honest I thought you would scream and go into a fit of rage when you saw me for the first time off intuition, but I guess you need help. " said the Samurai
Then after he proceed to pull on the shoulder plate of his armor and from the point of contact a flash of light was released after which the plate of started to liquify .
The man then pulled on the liquid metal like it was the handle on a sword or an axe , the liquid started to solidify in to the shape he had only seen once in his life, the Kiriku he had pulled out of his dead mother's chest.
Rogan was too shocked time And he knew what that meant.
First oddly in some way the universe blessed or cursed him to come face to face with his mother's killer .
And secondly her killer was a Hacker.
" You are going to die today. " said the man.
Rogan didn't know it at the time but his destiny changed that day .
