Whoever said bad things don't happen one after the other is a fool. When we got to Japan, another terrible event happened...

Will led me to his house. It was gigantic. This wasn't a house. It was a castle.

As we got in, Will looked at me strangely, "It shouldn't be this quiet at this time of the day."

We walked around and will led me to his father's conference room. As he opened the door, we found dozens of dead bodies lying around.

Will exclaimed, "What the hell happened? Father? Where are you?"

We ran around the castle searching for Will's father. He was nowhere to be found and there was only one room left we didn't go in yet: his father's bedroom. He looked at me grimly and opened the door. His father lied dead on the bed. His face was bluish. Will walked over and found a piece of paper on a desk.

It said: "I have been betrayed by my closest advisor, Richard. He invited every member of FireWind into our house for a feast. Little did I know; he poisoned our drinks. He let our rival clan, SilverSlick into the house and wiped everyone out. I managed to escape, but not for long. The poison is slowly revealing its effects on me. I will die soon; however, Will, if you ever see this, avenge me."

Will stared blankly at the piece of paper.

I said sadly, "Will, I am really sorry about what happened to your father."

Will didn't reply. He looked at his father painfully, "Father, you stupid fool. You were smart your entire life, but your one foolishness cost you your life."

I put my hand on Will's shoulder and stated, "What are you going to do now?"

Will grimaced, "I will avenge my father."

I nodded.

Will asked me, "Frank, looks like those people don't know I'm still alive. They'll be after me, but I'll be after them first. Will you help me?"

I nodded, "Of course. Those jerks who killed your father will die."

He nodded sadly.
