Chapter 56

Lunox’s Point of View

“Brother Ling!” I’m crying as I held him in my arms. I hugged him. I tapped his cheek but still he’s not budging. I checked his heartbeat.

“Why can’t I hear his heartbeat?” I checked his pulse. I’m starting to get nervous.

“Brother, this isn’t funny at all!” I exclaimed. He doesn’t have a heartbeat and pulse! I’m suppressing my feelings so that I won’t act rash. I shake his body yet he's still not gaining consciousness.

“Wake up, wake up please…” I said. He’s not opening his eyes. I bit my lower lip. My tears drop on his face.

“Brother Ling, d-don’t leave me. Mom and dad already left us,” I placed my head on his chest and cried. Then, I felt something cold on my head. I stopped crying and raised my head.

“Go on, shoot me,” the gun is pointed on my head. I turned around faced him. There, I saw Gusion pointing his gun at me. I bring myself closer that the gun touched my forehead. I looked up and stared at him blankly.

“I don’t care whether you’re in our side or Steel Douglas! All I feel right now is pain and hatred towards you. How dare you do this to my one and only brother! Go on and shoot me, I’m not scared to die,” he just stared me coldly while he triggered the gun. Then, all of the memories we had flashed on my mind. I love you his face! If he truly loves me, why is he doing this? He knew that the person whom I looking for is him. We had a deal whether which one of us will take his head. Is all of that a lie? I’m so confused but what he did to my brother concluded it. He knew that he’s my brother yet h-he… a tear escaped from my eyes again.

“What are you waiting for? Shoot her,” commented Steel Douglas.

“Wait… What am I doing?” I mumbled. Giving up is not my personality. I was lost for a moment out there. Be calm and compose, Lunox. Brother Ling will be fine. He’s strong, he’ll live.

I glared at Steel Douglas. His face turned serious when he saw me. I stood. Gusion is still pointing his gun at me.

“Why won’t you shoot?” I asked and approached Gusion. He remained to stand while he’s pointing his gun at me. I went in front of him.

“Can’t shoot the woman you love?” I caressed his face and put my hands-on top of his hands where he holds the gun. I positioned the gun on my chest. “Shoot and end the pain and suffering in my heart,” I whispered to him. Then, I saw a hint of sadness and guilt on his eyes. His hands were trembling. I tried not to smile. He’s hesitating.

“Gusion!” called out Steel Douglas. Our moment interrupted when I heard gun shots. We both moved backwards. Gusion went beside Steel Douglas while I protected brother from the gun shots.

“Leave your brother to me, Twilight,” said Angel.

“Why are you here?” She smiled at me.

“Tophet Chevalier’s order. You know I can’t say no to him. Speaking of the devil, he’s here,” she said. I turned around and saw Leomord along with Selena approaching us. He didn’t have a single scratch on his body. What caught my attention is the head that he’s holding. When he was in front of us, he glanced at me for a second then he faced Steel Douglas. He raised the two heads he’s holding.

“Is this what you call your best fighters?” He tossed the two heads on the ground. Then, he took the two more heads on Selena’s hands and threw it to him. The heads rolled on Steel Douglas feet. Steel Douglas aura got darker. He glared at Leomord. I can feel his bloodlust in here. Leomord just smirked.

“Weaklings,” he stated. “I think you’ve used all of your tricks. Surrender now,” added Leomord. Then, Steel Douglas laughed. He held his stomach while he laughed.
