Chapter 163: Ryan O’Brien

"I’m a man of wild things... First thing you should know about me" he said as with a flick of his fingers the merged bullet came at them in speed before they could blink, like a speed for lightning.

Vincent knew that very moment their death was inevitable.

"MOM! DAD! LOOK OUT!" Genesis shouts jumping in front of them, taking the bullet in his chest in an instant, blood splashing.

"GENESIS" Riley screamed in horror holding him before he reach the ground, Liam did too, he held him tight apply pressure to his chest, Liam’s hand trembled, now soak in blood, his furious eyes traveled to where Vincent was but he was gone, nowhere to be seen like he just vanished.

Genesis coughs blood gaining Liam’s attention, he turns back to him.

"Genesis" Riley cried as she sobbed.

"The bullet" Liam said in a trembling voice.

"Is deep in his heart" Riley’s teary eyes met his.

A tear slid down his cheek from one of his eyes.

"He’s not gonna make it"

Riley shakes her head negatively as she cries.

"No, No" she sobs.

"I can’t... I can’t lose him again, not when I have finally found him" she cried.

A weak smile found Genesis lips, in the position he laid, he could see his parents face, there was no greater joy than this.

"I’m glad" he began weakly.

Their attention drifts to him in unison.

"I’m glad" he coughed, blood spilling.

"I get to spend this little time with you guys".

"No No Genesis don’t say that... okay? you’re gonna be alright... you’re gonna be just fine okay?" she sobbed.

He shakes his head negatively, as the tears fell, he knew he wasn’t gonna make it.

Liam held Genesis’ hand tightly, the tears falling on their own accord.

"Mom," he began.

"Yes?" she sobs.

"What name would you have given me?" he asked with a small smile against his lips.

A feeble smile found her lips, stroking his head gently.

"I’m never good with names to begin with" she said facing Liam.

"When I was pregnant with you, I told myself that I would let Liam do the picking," she adds with shaky eyes.

Liam’s eyes were saddened.

"Ryan" Liam said, his eyes drifting to his son.

"Ryan" Genesis said with a wide smile as he closed his eyes, the tears dripping from the corner.

"I love it, thanks dad" he said, snuggling himself more in his mom’s arms.

"I love it so much," he added faintly. ’Thank you Mum and Dad’ he thought with a smile against his lips.

That moment the first snow of the season fell, the snowflakes drifting downwards in a calm rhythm, some fell on Genesis blood, the white color turning white instantly.

In Genesis’ mind, imagined all the years he couldn’t spend with his parents. His first step, His first words, sleeping in-between them on the same bed, his first day at school, his first time riding a bike with the help of his dad, graduation and all the wonderful memories he would spend with them. If only... all these wishes could be fulfilled, his smile fades slowly as his eyes closed.

But he was somewhat glad, even though all those were just a flick of what might happen, he was glad he was able to see it.

*Heart Stops Beating*

Riley broke in painful tears, hugging Liam tightly, she cried and cried burying her head in his chest, Liam wraps his arms around her as he sobs, hugging her back tightly, the pain was unbearable, after finally coming to an understanding with their son, now he was gone, gone forever.

Ghoul Investigators Headquarters (GIH)

Thirtieth Floor (Barbra’s Office)

The files scattered on the ground, the glass table now shattered in pieces.

Barbra’s back slammed hard against the wall Vincent fist clenched tightly around her neck almost crushing it, her legs wagging back and forth due to the loss of gravity.

Vincent was pissed, extremely pissed and furious that his blood boiled.

"What did you say?!" He demands in a dark tone.

Barbra’s fist clenched around his hand against her neck, squeezing her windpipe.

"Riley is Rose’s daughter" she answered in a struggling breath.

"And I killed her because of that mistake"

Vincent growled, flinging Barbra across the room like she weighed no less than a pen. Her bandaged right side face grinds on the floor as she slides backwards, blood trailing.

She growled in extreme pain, holding her now soaked bandage.

"All these years you kept this from me, you should have told me Barbra!" He hissed in rage.

"She will always be your favorite," Barbra huffed, facing him.

"Your favorite baby sister".

"She was in your care, I left her with you to care for her after I was gone!" He hissed.

"Well as soon as dear big brother left she went ahead and fuck a ghoul... tainting our family name and image, I did what any elder of our family would have done... I ended her pitiful life" she spats.

"BARBRAAAA!"

"OR YOU WOULD HAVE DONE IT YOURSELF" she shouts making Vincent stop abruptly in his steps, at her words.

"She was lucky I Let her see every sunrise until now, her time was up and she knew it, she broke our family code, she brought disgrace to our family," she hissed.

Vincent fist clenched tightly, almost drawing blood.

"Leave Riley to me" he began.

"I will end her life myself and fulfill the family code," he states facing the window.

"You have a more pressing issue to handle"

Puzzled by his words Barbra slowly rose to her feet, walking towards the window she froze seeing the scene outside.

"WE NO LONGER WANT THE AGENCY!"

"SHUT THIS PLACE DOWN!"

"LET GHOULS HAVE THEIR RIGHTS BACK!"

"GHOULS AREN’T THE ENEMY, THE AGENCY ARE!"

"SHUT THIS PLACE DOWN!"

The protesters in front of the agency entrance, shouts and rants, about a dozen of them were outside all holding posters with the agency symbol on it, a red bad mark slashed on it.

"SHUT DOWN THE AGENCY!"

"SHUT DOWN THE AGENCY!"

"SHUT DOWN THE AGENCY!"

Barbra watched the scene with shaky eyes of horror.

"Seems like the agency is done for" Vincent said sternly.
