DISCLAIMER: I do not own KHR.

"Haha, onii-chan, you lost again."

"Aww man, I lost again for five times in a row. Can you please have mercy on your brother for at least once, Kiko?", the blond-haired boy stared at his little sister with a pair of puppy eyes.

"Nope. You didn't show mercy on me when we are playing chess last time. You defeated me 7 times in a row. Now, it's payback time. You really suck in video game compared to Ren nii-chan."

Rei puffed up his cheeks upon hearing his sister's comments which made Kiko laughed even harder. Both of them are playing together in Kiko's room since they have nothing else to do. Ren is busy doing his reports while the twins are busy doing their school projects somewhere in the mansion.

"Let's make this more interesting, nii-chan. We make a bet for this round. If I win, you have to treat me all the strawberry snacks that I like for a week and vice versa if I lost. To make it fair, I only use my right hand this time. Deal?"

"Hmmm, alright, deal."

"Let's see who can .....". Before Kiko could finish her sentence, a few explosions can be heard throughout the whole HQ. Someone crashed in through the window holding a gun. Rei and Kiko immediately stood up in alert.

"Well, look at what we have here. Two little Vermillion kids waiting to be killed", the intruder smirked while aiming his gun at Rei and Kiko. Six more intruders came in and surrounded them.

"Kiko, you deal with the left and I deal with the right. Be careful. These people are not small fry if they can break through the HQ mist barrier undetected", whispered Rei while both of them slowly backed to the wall.

As soon as Rei finish talking, Kiko landed a kick on the nearest intruder before knocking down the other three by hitting their pressure points. Meanwhile, Rei proceeded to knock down the rest using a hidden taser.

"We need to find mum and dad quick!", Kiko said while rushing out towards the corridor with Rei as more explosions occurred throughted the mansion. Rei was catching up with Kiko from behind when he sensed a sniper outside aiming at them.

"LOOK OUT! KIKO!" Rei pushed Kiko aside and got shot instead.

"Nii-chan!" Kiko was shocked. She quickly approached the unconcious Rei and saw Rei bleeding profusely. Blood. No, don't die, nii-chan. Please hang on. Kiko tried to calm herself and stop the bleeding when a second bullet is shot and grazed her cheek.

Kiko didn't flinch against the shot. Instead, she felt something burning inside her. Her eyes began to flicker between brown and orange. She stood up and stared at the sniper. She was about to aim at the sniper when someone shot her with a needle from behind causing her head to hurt suddenly. Aurgh, my brain hurts. She tried to resist but soon her vision darkened as she slipped into the darkness.

When she regained consciousness, she felt pain all over her body. Her vision was blur but she can sense that she was being held by someone. Dad, is that you? She tried to speak but she can't. The pain was too much for her. Everything was so fuzzy. The last thing she saw was her dad's battered face telling her something as darkness took over her vision again.

"Spill it. Judging from your expression, you know something about the flame", Reborn eyes Byakuran.

"That flame is the opposite of sky flame. Just like ying and yang. When there is light, there is darkness. If sky flame brings harmony, that flame brings calamity. That is the flame is called catastrophe flame." The purple irises narrowed as he speaked.
