Lunox’s Point of View

“We can’t. Only the top ten assassins of Lustitia, inc. can have customed made weapons and suits. If I were to give it to a commoner, members of our incorporation that weren’t given will be furious. The higher ups will question me too,” said uncle.

“As expected,” said Leomord. “There’s no harm in trying. We just need normal weapons such as guns, bulletproof vest and car,” he added.

“I’m capable of giving it to you if that’s what you want,” replied uncle.

“One more thing, kindly send some of your people to pick up my colleagues in the mall. We left them there and we said that we’ll pick them up later. It’s time,” said Leomord. Uncle scratched his head.

“You sure have a lot of requests,” he said. He stands. “I’ll go now and take care of Leo’s requests,” added uncle. He walked through the door but then he stopped for a moment. “Lulu my dear, I hope this answers your question. I wouldn’t do things that would harm you both. I care for you and your brother not because we have the same blood running through our veins. I love the both of you because we’re family and you two are very important to me,” said uncle and left the house totally.

“Good. He’s gone,” said Leomord. I scanned the place. The last time we stayed here is when he adopted us. This is our second home. Nothing changed here, it’s still the same as before.

Knowing the truth, my body feels light. I was refreshed and relieved. So, that’s what happened. I thought mom and dad were angels that they can’t hurt an ant yet when I knew their past, my point of view switched. Despite knowing the truth, I was happy. At least I discovered something about my family. All these years, they have kept it hidden from me and that hurts. I’m so clueless! I was desperate and frustrated. I can’t do anything even if I want to because I didn’t know a thing. But now, it’s different.

“I think I have forgotten someone in the past,” I suddenly said. Leomord looked at me. “Before I have an amnesia.” I added.

“I didn’t tell it to anyone because I thought it’s just a normal dream but I have dreamt this dream all the time,” I stated.

“I think I have met a boy. He’s my childhood friend. The details are blurred and that’s all I remember,” I explained.

“Don’t force yourself to remember, Lu. Your memories will come back soon on its own,” said Leomord. I played with my hands. “Right,” I replied. Then, there’s silence. Geez! What now? I don’t like the atmosphere to be awkward.

“Why don’t you tour Leo around?” suggested brother. I glanced at him. Then, he winked at me. I shot deadly glares at him. You’ll pay for this brother Ling!

“Good idea. Let’s stroll the place, Lu,” said Leomord and stood. He offered his hand. I accepted it and stood up.

“We’ll be out for a while, Ling,” he said.

“Take your time, brother-in-law!” replied brother.

“Brother Ling!” I called out. Leomord just shook his head and smiled. I bit my lower lip. It was embarrassing for me. Brother really like to tease me! I pouted.

I grabbed Leomord’s arm and we walked faster.

“Don’t mind my brother. He’s just like that,” I said. We went to the library first. I’ll tour him inside of the house. After I’ll tour him inside, we’ll go outside.

“When I lived here before, uncle always tells us stories in here before we go to bed,” I told him. We’re in the library. Leomord is scanning the area. He took a book and flipped the pages.
