Kaelynn's POV
It's today. Today I'll finally get rid of John Pierre, for real this time. Today I'll get my older brother back.
Unknown POV
It's today. Today I'll go behind their backs, behind her back. Today I'll ruin multiple lives. There's no turning back now.
__________
Everyone is in position and it's time for me to make my move. I leave making sure to go unnoticed, to turn their well constructed plan to shit.
I comfort myself with the thought that it's for the best..... My best.
Kaelynn's POV
I look around to see no sign of my partner.
Yanyan what the fuck?
We're literally on a mission here and you run off without my knowledge.
I keep going towards the Ice room forgetting the idea of going to find Yanyan. I have to find my brother first.
"I swear to God when I find that adorable blonde piece of shit. Wait, what the hell am I saying??" I hear voices and hide in a convenient corner. Wow Pierre didn't think this house design through.
"Have you heard?"
"What?"
"The boss is finally gonna test out his experiment."
"Damn. For real?"
"No cap. Not gonna lie the A5J scares the shit outta me."
"Bro he scares the shit out of everyone. Low key think the boss is slightly psycho for doing that shit."
"True that."
A5J? What the fuck is that? And why is it such a big thing? I push the thoughts and a nagging feeling of dread to the back of my head. I should stop getting distracted.
I find the Ice room which is weirdly unguarded but eh, I'll take it.
"Fuck it's cold in here"
Of course it is dumb ass. It's called an ice room.
Not the time to be arguing with my subconscious.
There's a large containment thingy in the middle of the room which I assume is my brother. The glass is frosted over so I can't see in but who cares about that.
I go to open it and it does so quite easily. No locks, no scans, nothing. That should have triggered my concerns but I'm too immersed in getting my brother back that I don't even think of that.
I open it and look in with a huge smile on my face which drops as I see
Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
My brother's not in here. He is supposed to be in here!!
"How's my little surprise?" That voice. The voice of a man who I've come to utterly despise in the span of a few months.
"John Pierre." I spit out the name with venom as I turn around to meet his stupid smug face.
"The one and only." He gives a mock bow that stupid ass smirk still on his face.
"Where is my brother? I know you fucking have him, so where the fuck is he!" I'm honestly surprised that I'm keeping somewhat calm. On a normal day I'd have shoved a blade through his wind pipe by now and watch him die by choking on his own blood.
"Oh! Silly me." He says with a fake, over exaggerated gasp. "You mean him?" A tall well built man steps into the light. It is obvious he's not normal or human at least not completely.
The man's face is void of any emotion, same as his eyes. A once enviable forest green now a dull, almost colorless gray. His movements robotic and sharp.
The man is my brother.
"What did you do to him?" A tear drops from my left eye not being able to keep a cool frontier after seeing what has become of my brother.
"Say hello to A5J. In simple terms, I reset him. Wiped all memories from his brain, removed his heart too."
"What do you mean you removed his heart?! Then how is he still alive?!" I am near hysterical at this point.
"That's the thing." Pierre's dark chuckles echoes through the frozen corners of the room.
"He's not."
What?
The confusion must be evident on my face because Pierre elaborates more taking an immense amount of pleasure in explaining his psychotic schemes.
"In place of that disgusting organ is a cube shaped metal that's powering him. He's not human anymore, just an efficient killing machine. We tried to keep his heart, modify it but we couldn't get it to stop feeling. So we told it 'yeet'."
No! He's lying! It's still AJ. It's still my brother. He's still alive. He is.
"I'm surprised you haven't even asked how I knew you were here but imma tell you cause I'm a sadistic shit." That just wrecks my brain even more. How?
"You were betrayed." My head snaps towards him.
"And by someone you love and trust, well trusted."
A huge guard enters tightly holding the arms of a known face behind him.
"Let me go. Ya dumb shit."
No. It can't be.
Please. Please not him. Anyone but him.
"Yanyan?"
My heart drops to my stomach. Him? Of all people him?
"Calm yourself. It's not him. He was just being a nosy bitch." I don't think I've ever appreciated something that came out of Pierre's mouth more in that moment.
"Don't be shy show yourself." He says in an over the top voice.
I think I would prefer he stayed in the shadows cause my eyes aren't comprehending this shit.
(A/N : Sorry I do this a lot. I just feel like it adds more suspense and drama 😅🙂)
"Father?"
A/N : And so the plot thickens 🤭.
Fun fact : This is no way near the original plot I had in my head like at allll.
