Chapter 13 - Dark Past

The clock shows 8:00 am, the streets are starting to get busy. People have been doing their normal activities, some going to school, some going to the office, some shopping etc.

In the office, Calvin and his friends are still busy sharing the information they get. Commander Edric mentions that he is familiar with one of them, and asks Calvin to investigate further.

"This is weird." Commander Jane said.

"Why sis?"

"Edric is right, this woman named Fay does not feel foreign. But I also can't remember when and where we met." Said Jane's commander.

"One thing I know." Calvin said.

"What's that?"

"He's hot."

"That's right." Parker nodded.

"Stupid!" Viola said.

"If you look closely, your bangs are similar, yes." Calvin said watching Viola's bangs.

"Don't don't!!" Calvin and Parker pulled away from the Viola in unison.

"How is this Parker, we will fight with our own friends." Calvin added.

"Let's get ready." Parker and Calvin put on a horse.

"Kage bushin no jutsu!"

"Katon gokyaku no justu!"

"Ciaaattt."

"Ignore them sis, these idiots always make me dizzy." Viola said.

"Hahaha, you guys are full of surprises, aren't you?" Commander Jane said.

"Quick serious." Viola said while pinching Calvin's ear.

"Very well, princess."

Calvin and Parker quickly sat back down, staring intently at the monitor.

"Calvin, didn't we, you had a little friend named Fay too?" Asked the commander Jane.

"That's right, but he died in a car accident when I was little. My sister used to play with him a lot too, right at home." Reply to Calvin.

"I still have a picture of the four of us." Calvin added while looking for the photo in his database.

Then Calvin showed the photo, it looks like there are 4 people in the photo. Commander Edric, commander Jane, Calvin and Fay as a child, photo taken in the garden in front of the house.

"Who is this man?"

"That's Edric, the commander of the 1st division, he is one year older than me, this is Calvin sitting next to him and Fay. He moved out of town because his father moved assignments, and the news we received at that time was that their family had a car accident and died, no one survived." Commander Jane said.

"But if you look at it, there's nothing like it, just look at Calvin, he used to have cute cheeks but now Calvin is an annoying person." Viola said.

"Hahaha, thank you."

"That's not a stupid compliment."

"Parker tried to scan the faces of the two, what is the percentage?" Calvin said.

"Okay."

The scan starts running to see if it's the same person.

"79% similarity."

"This crazy is impossible."

"If she really is the old Fay, where has she been all this time? Then what did she do to become like this."

"We have to confirm this first, because he's the enemy we're after." Commander Jane said.

Calvin was very surprised by the scan results, if it was true that he was Fay, his little friend, he couldn't accept it. What he knew all this time was that his best friend had died in an accident, it was really unexpected if he was still alive. But the question is why he was able to join the Killer Kraken, isn't he a former member of the military if you look at the historical data he obtained.

The atmosphere in the room began to get a little tense in response to that, Calvin then took his cigarette and started to smoke it to feel a little relaxed.

"How do we make sure of this." Asked Parker.

"Well we have to meet him in person and I also want to hear from him myself."

"We also can't contact anyone from their closest people or family, because they used to be newcomers to this neighborhood." Commander Jane.

"I still hope it's not him."

"Hopefully so."

Calvin went out of the room, his face was not as cheerful as usual. He kept so many childhood memories with him that he couldn't just forget them, and this appearance made him feel uneasy. What if it's all true?

"Do we need to tell this to headquarters?" Asked Parker.

"Not yet, let Calvin make the decision." Hold down commander Jane.

"Okay."

***

30 minutes Calvin had left the room Parker, Viola and commander Jane were still there to dig up more information and also received all the information from other divisions and then analyzed it.

"I'm worried about him, I'll accompany him first."

Then Viola got up from her seat and left the room in search of Calvin. Viola went to the kitchen first to make coffee for Calvin, she casually walked over with a worried expression on Calvin.

Viola searched all corners of the room, but she still couldn't find Calvin. He panicked a little and rushed back to the study intending to take his cellphone to contact Calvin. Arriving in the room he tried to contact Calvin, but unfortunately Calvin's cellphone was left in the room.

"What is it?"

"I can't find Calvin."

"How could that be."

"I don't know, I've searched all the rooms in this house but can't find it."

"Was Calvin often like that, sis?"

"Well that's how it is if he's feeling restless or has something on his mind he'll go somewhere, he'll come back when he's a little better." Obviously commander Jane.

"I've never seen Calvin with that expression before." Viola said.

"Fay and Calvin grew up together since they were babies, our family and Fay are very close like brothers. Until finally when at the age of 10 Fay's family moved to another city, but they still often visited us to bring gifts. said to be closer than me, who is Calvin's older brother. When the news came, Calvin was so shocked that he fainted, we all rushed to Fay's house which is quite a distance away. Until we got there we couldn't see her one last time, the info we received can if all the bodies have been brought by their extended families and at that time we all really didn't know at all what had happened."

Commander Jane sighed, she remembered the very bad things in her past. But according to Jane's commander, they both deserve to know what really happened to make Calvin like that.

Viola and Parker really listened to what Jane's commander had to say, because so far Calvin had never said anything about it. He is very good at hiding his sadness.

"One year has passed after Fay's departure, Calvin has started to get used to it but he will be very sensitive when someone talks about it. Then a worse tragedy happened that made Calvin worse off, our parents experienced the same thing they had an accident on their way home from their office and their lives were not saved. Calvin was so devastated by the incident that it made him depressed, how such a small child could deal with it all. Calvin was really messed up at the time, he was such a spoiled man that he couldn't take all that."

Viola herself couldn't hold back her tears when she heard Calvin's past, nor did she think that she had such a dark past. Commander Jane also had tears in her eyes, they hugged each other to comfort each other.

Meanwhile, Parker was silent, he didn't know what to say, because he himself just found out about it. So far, Calvin has never told anyone about his past.
