"My name is Chiyo Yamada. And this here is my brother Fumiko Yamamoto. What's your name?" Chiyo said calmly.

"I'm Keres and this here is Naomi." I replied.

"What are you here for Naomi? Fumiko asked.

"Well, I was kidnapped at age 5. Spent four years getting injections by a kid my age." Naomi replied.

"Well we should get going." I said aloud.

We turned around and walked off to the exit. I noticed the lab and decided to peek in again. I saw the shadow figure holding Ai and Aoi up. They struggled while yelling at the figure. He turned on the chamber as they screamed in pain. I shut the door and looked at the three of them.

"Don't think about it, keres. It's not worth it." Naomi said to me.

"I need to save them." I said to them in a panic.

"Why?" Fumiko said calmly.

"They're important to me. Plus the one screaming loudly needs to explain things to her daughter." I replied.

"Alright, fine. But take me." Naomi replied while sighing.

"Thank you Naomi. This means a lot." I thanked her.

"Your welcome Keres." She said to me, calmly.

Naomi and I barged into the room. We ran to Ai and Aoi. She looked at the figure who couldn't do anything to us. I untied their binds and helped them up. Aoi and Ai ran out the door followed by Naomi. I ran to the door as I heard the figure speak. It sounded like my father.

"Keres. I know who you are. Your brother has told me a lot about you. His anger runs deep. You can't stop what's going to happen." The figure said calmly.

"You think I can't stop my brother. I will figure out this invention he has created. And I will stop him in his tracks." I said angrily.

"The final battle will be upon us soon. You'd better be ready. Your death will be satisfying." The figure said while laughing.

"I will be the one to have the last laugh. Believe me." I said challengingly.

"Is that so? Well I hate to bust your bubbles but you won't have the chance to." The figure said to me calmly.

"I will turn your operation upside down. And you will be the first to die by my hand. I will figure out who you are and I will kill you."

"You won't get the chance." The figure said calmly.

I Heard my name being called from down the hall. I turned away from the figure and ran out the room. I ran down the hall and towards the stairs. I noticed that Aoi, Ai, Naomi, Chiyo, and Fuimiko were surrounded by shadows. I took out my sword and sliced my way through the shadows. I got to them and made a path to the stairs.

"About time Keres!" Ai stated angrily.

"Sorry. The figure was speaking to me. I needed to hear what he was saying." I said in a rush.

"Well you can explain when we get the hell out of here!" Fumiko said, panic struck.

"Alright, fine! But Don't forget we still need to look for an exit to this place." I said calmly

"I found something back in the city. Before the figure took me and Ai." Aoi said out of breath.

"Take us to it." I said quickly.

We kept running up the stairs to the first floor. We got to the first floor as I noticed that the entrance was blocked off. We stopped dead in our tracks. We were surrounded by shadows. I heard footsteps and an evil laughter. I looked around to see Kiyo once again. But not only him. I saw Kei as well.
