A smile decorated the black haired boy's face. "Hello Master."
Venus' shock slowly changed to anger. "Why are you here?"
"Oh my, after all this years, Master hasn't let his grudge go. Tsk tsk." Virgil clicked his tongue.
Venus clenched his jaw. 'Forgotten?!"
Three years ago, a team of scientists visited Area E with the objective to introduce advanced science to the rundown area. Everyone was excited. The people from Area A were like gods. They had access to many benefits.
Their schools were attended by the cream of the top, taught by the most qualified and experienced teachers. The public were very rich and most of all, they had the chance to come into contact with the Legendary leader, Son Theo José. 'Son' was the title which he assumed as his father was the background ruler of the world.
His father, High Father Jasper Herald was the man who brought the world out of chaos it fell into after an explosion that affected the whole world.
Long before that time, people thought a nuclear explosion could destroy the world, but a nuclear explosion was not even up to a quarter of the explosion.
Han Mo, a Chinese scientist, discovered an unknown substance in a meteor that landed in Huangjing Village. The village had been wiped out from the event.
The substance Han Mo named Fuse Ray was very flammable and dense. Mixing it with a nuclei triggered a butterfly effect which led to mass destruction affecting the world.
High Father Jasper Herald was the only one in the midst of chaos that brought together every person and built their current world.
Gradually, the world was divided once again and Thidas was were he retreated to. He built the five areas, A to E, and and delegated the the work of those living there to his trusted subordinates.
These subordinates, having a huge sense of pride, kept those close to them and the leader in area A, and those with no background in area E. The others were assigned to the other areas depending on their usefulness and power.
Three years ago, there was a major breakthrough in the research of the Son and he needed living humans to experiment on. One of the subordinates suggested those from Area E, the forgotten ones, and therefore, soldiers and scientists were assigned to Area E to lure humans to Area A.
Venus and Xana grew up in the slums of Area E and were smarter than most of their peers. They built their legacy together and became known in the underground world of Area E.
Venus came back to their organization with a six year old child whom he called Virgil. The siblings accepted him and thought him all the ways of survival and trained him on qi cultivation. Virgil was like their disciple, though it was only Venus he addressed as master, though. He grew under the protective shadows of the siblings till he was eleven years old. Then, he was sent on his first mission, to assassinate the head of the underground world. He came back triumphant but Venus felt something about him was different but he did not say anything about it.
When the envoys from Area A arrived, the siblings were very suspicious of their objective and their intuition turned out right. They couldn't do anything at all as they were injected with neurons at birth that monitor their activities. Everyone was.
Virgil was missing that day and Venus felt uneasy about it. He and Xana left the safety of their organization to look for Virgil. Unknowingly, Virgil was just outside the organization, waiting for them with a group of area A envoys.
Venus realized instantly what was happening and tried to push Xana into the protective cover of the organization, but in a way, she avoided it and pushed her brother instead delivering herself to their grasps.
"They were born extraordinarily special, they would be the best experimental subjects." Virgil's voice sounded with Venus' scream in the background.
"Xanaaaaaaa!" he looked horrified as she was chained and dragged by the envoys.
Venus charged at them but was immediately subdued and his left hand broken. He glared hatefully at Virgil as they took his sister away.
Virgil smirked and disappeared from position.
"Virgil" Venus muttered with rage as he left.
.....
Looking at his so called disciple in front of him, Virgil's eyes saw red but he calmed down.
"Leave immediately." he said very quietly .
Virgil shivered inwardly. 'Shit! Master has still got this chilling voice of his and it still affects me as years ago.'
"Master, you've got to listen to me, okay?" he said.
Venus smiled. "You still know the way here, right?" Virgil shivered again. His eyes narrowed.
"Leave." the word was repeated. Virgil immediately disappeared from the organization.
Venus shook his head. 'You were lucky leaving with your life. You think my sister is dead. She lives. And she lives to destroy your lives.'
.....
"Am I the only one or is Deanna becoming way prettier everyday?" Max said as they picked acorns.
Sam and Sean rolled their eyes. 'Someone as dense as you just noticed and you think we haven't?'
"I have begun to have thoughts to date her. She'll accept me though. I'm tall, handsome, funny and the village chief's son." he said obviously swooning over himself.
Sam and Sean were speechless at his words. "Fool, she's our freaking friend!" Sam knocked his head hoping to knock in some sense as well.
Xana who wasn't far from them has been mentally paralyzed at his words. When she recovered, she walked to the boy and beat him up.
Shockingly, the rest were cheering her up.
Max cried in anguish. "Sister, Sean! Why?!"
Xana immediately stuffed acorns I'm his mouth as he screamed.
She dusted her hands and went back to picking acorns.
Max made a motion of zipping his mouth as he went back to his work. Sean and Sam giggled. They were having fun in his misery.
Max: Flip the table!!
