I don't know where to go.

I am lost.

Master Luke...

My eyes started to swell up for tears trying to come out but I am continuously also preventing them.

I don't know why would Master Luke want to confine me, to lock me up.

What is the truth?!

Were there any other more truths that I know?!

He said that I cannot know everything.

Daiki being the perfect subject of assimilation is not the only truth.

Pangs of ache engulfed the part that Master Luke had shot. It was induced with tranquilizer but I was able to counter it with pain.

The fact that Master Luke did not hesitate to shoot me was great proof that he cared for the truth than me.

That hurts me.

I have loved him ever since.

It was good that I got out of the Headhunts base.

But where shall I go now?!

Daiki??

No...

I cannot go to him.

I left him.

I cannot go to him and I also cannot go back to the Headhunts.

I found myself wondering to the south which is just full of dessert area.

The hot wind engulfed me and the scorching sun has been burning my skin. I was literally walking on sand and there was only sand as the far as I can see.

The crunching sound of every step that I would take reminds me of my thirst for water and food.

My sight is already becoming hazy and everything around me is turning into doubles with waves.

Maybe I could just forget everything and die.

That would be great.

I immediately opened my eyes and sat up.

I was in an unknown place.

I was sitting on a comfortable clay cement bed with warm bright and brown clothes draping over. There were pots of plants with small red fruits everywhere, the size of a coin. A jug of mysterious light red water was on the clay table at my side and everything was lightened by candles and some were from oil lamps.

The wind beside the clay bed was cool and outside, I could see the horizon of sand looking like waves.

I sat on the bed and started to get water for myself. I got the whole jug and drank the liquid inside. It was water but it tastes a little sweet.

I looked at the window which reflected the stars were bright as if it was being reflected by the sand below.

"You're awake." A voice disturbed me from my wandering.

I looked immediately to where the voice came from.

"M-Mir?" I asked.

"I see you already met with my brother." He said.

Brother?

I started to focus on the person in front of me.

He has dark brown curly hair flows from the side of his neck being tied by a white ribbon almost with the same length as his hair until his abdomen. His skin was chocolate brown and his eyes were bright green. He has the same features as Mir.

He was dressed in dark maroon which drapes to his feet. He was also wearing a lot of gold and silver accessories alike from his ear piercings to his necklace, bracelets, rings and to his light bronze sandals.

His arms were crossed in front of him and he was leaning on the door way.

"Who are you?" I asked him deeply.

For a moment, I thought that he was Mir because of his same features but I remembered that Mir has already lost his right eye and his left arm.

"My name is Alucar." The distinguished man said.

Suddenly a man busted inside the room.

"Fujin??!!" He shouted.

"Doctor Bockes?" I exclaimed. He was a known doctor of the Headhunts. I remember him from my childhood. He was intelligent yet has always the time to play with me. But from what I know, he went to travel and has never come back that is why we presumed he was dead. But here he is in front of me now.

"B-But I thought you were dead?" I was emotional to see him. He was like a grandfather to me. Definitely he already aged but he is still chubby as he was.

Doctor Bockes walked towards me and gave me a hug. I also hugged him back.

"Well, you know, Fujin, I kind of faked my death, because, ummm... I don't want to return to the Headhunts anymore." He told me.

"The Headhunts..." I said.

I remembered Master Luke. He shot me and would not say the truth.

"Master Luke is hiding something from me." I say to Doctor Bockes. "I... I left the Headhunts."

Doctor Bockes also sat on the bed beside me. "Luke... He has a lot of secrets. But maybe..." The doctor looked at me scrutinizing my pained expression that I was hiding.

"Maybe you found something." He said.

I breathed out.

"Yes. Master Luke... The Headhunts... Experimented on the Garianne Family."

Doctor Bockes looked at me. I could see that he definitely aged. His hair was all gray including his mustache. His wrinkles also increased. Still, there was an air of humility and kindness around him.

"Luke... Has a lot of secrets, Fujin."
