LANDON

It can't be.

He can't be.

He can't do this to his children.

To him and her.

To me.

He can't be alive.

I buried him, along with mom.

I covered the casket with dirt. The same casket that was...closed the whole time.

Oh, god.

I rubbed my face in frustration. I couldn't sleep a wink after Krystal told me she saw dad. I had been up all night by my holopad, going through every possible camera to give me a clue, but alas, there wasn't a hint of anything relevant.

I had pushed the memory far, far away so I could focus on Krystal and the Crystal Undead without distractions, but of course, something like this had to make its way onto my doorstep.

Staring at all the open files and cameras on the holopad, I sighed.

'He didn't need to show up all of the sudden. I was plenty capable of taking care of my siblings, and maybe Blake.'

My thoughts were broken when my phone blared. I turned off the alarm and only realized it was eight in the morning.

Deciding to get breakfast before I continue, I walked out of the closet and out of my room. Being too lazy to walk down, I sat on the railing and slid down the entire way.

I hopped off and strolled to the dining room. The maids were setting up the table and when one of them saw me, she plated my breakfast. I nodded at her and sat down, taking the tablet on the table and scrolling through the news.

One particular article caught my eye and I tapped into it to read.


THE UNDERWORLD

BREAKING NEWS

WHY ARE THEY BACK?

They're back again with another round of assassinations and it's an ugly one. The assassin, E.A. singlehandedly massacred a gang Ebony Void, based in Illinois, America, but they left a message this time.

THIS IS FOR THEM

No one has any idea who 'them' is, or even has a clue on who this assassin is, but what we do know is that they're doing all these destructions for some people. Maybe family? Or a former gang that crumbled and this was their way to get revenge. We don't know.

If anyone has any insight on who this person is, please do share.


I took a sip of my coffee as I reread the article.

'This is for them'? Who's the 'them'?

I have no idea, man. It could be anyone.

I could feel Kris pacing around in my head, trying to figure out who would be 'them'. Suddenly, he stopped.

What?

Don't call me crazy, but I have a feeling.

What kind?
