I flipped the man onto the bed and tied his hands to the sheet of my bed.

Thomas looked at me shocked and then at that moment, my heart was beating so fast, I had forgotten the thrill of catching bad guys, and the missions were so thrilling. I was smiling. I could feel that I had found something to do in this mansion that might help me find my team back. Thomas came to my side.

-Thomas: It's ok, miss. I will have a hold of him and present him to my master, he will know what to do with this person.

But as soon, as we walked out of my door, I saw something horrific, so many bodies of knights and other black cloth people beside them. There were also a few bodies of maids and servants of the machine. We walked around until we reached Father's, study.

-Thomas: Miss I will go in the door across from your father's chambers, knock, and go in to check on your brother.

I indeed, went to the door, and all I could hear were screams, so without knocking on the door, I busted open the door and saw My little brother stab one of the guys in black clothing, which I assumed to be the assassin.

Alex was stalled by seeing me, yet his sword did not leave the guy's body. Standing there for a few seconds, I could see how slowly Alex's sword was leaving the guy's body. I saw that my father was nowhere around, which scared me. So as any person, I went to hug my brother, which I could see confused him so much, then I grabbed his hand and rushed to the office, and saw that my father had a wound on his shoulder, and no one else was severely hurt, well I mean expert servants and the knits. But they could be more important. Sorry.

-Emily: Father! Are you ok? Thomas, please get the medicine kit, we need to clean Father's wound.

August smiled at me.

-August: ohh, my Juliette, you don't need to worry about me.

But I insisted. So Thomas left the only living intruder, to me and Alex, and went running to get the medicine kit from my room.

There was silence in the room. Like awkward silence. I could hear my heartbeat, beat so loud my head was hurting. My eyes were stuck on my brother Alex, who had blood splatters on his face, I went close to wipe them out. I came real close to his face, and he was startled by me. I got taken back.

-Emily: it’s ok! All I want to do is wipe the blood of you.

-Alex: ok!

He timidly came close to my hand so that I could wipe his face. The moment that happened, I had a flashback of before whenever he got into fights I would come to his aid, to clean his face.

-August: ‘Cough, cough’ Well kids now that Thomas is gone, I would like to tell you something. Which might be upsetting, my Julitte, this boy right here, he is your brother however, he has had a rough past, and he will explain everything. I just can't.

At that moment, Thomas rushed into the room with the medicine kit.

-Emily: thank you, Thomas.

I rushed to get the medicine box and went to Faher to treat his wounds.

-August: Leave it, thomas will do that for me you and your brother, go catch up.

He smiled at me.

I left the box, by his side.

-Emily: ok, we will leave, Thomas please take care of my Faher.

-Thomas: I will miss you.

I went to my brother, grabbed his hand, and walked out of the room, and I was headed to my room.

We reached my bedroom, got inside sat down, and I impatiently waited for him to start, to tell me, what had happened 12 years ago when he left me and my mother. I was thinking all these things, but yet I sat patiently on the bed watching him as he was coming up with the courage to start talking and then...
