Chapter 210: Black Twins [4]

"How did it go with the twins?" Iris asked raising an eyebrow, watching as Riley walks into the office sighing. "I trust it went well" Judging from her expression she figured it was wrong answers only.

"Not exactly well" Riley said seating on the white couch. This was by far the worse of them all. She had a feeling Ethan was more consumed than ever or suddenly had the passion to do tenfold worth of headaches. There was only so much her brain could take.

Iris just made a hmm sound.

"You know Ethan is very protective of his sister, I’m sure he just wanted to teach those kids a lesson" she reason. That was just who Ethan was and it was something they can’t change no matter how much they tried. It was a hard-core personality of his.

"Yeah I know but the violence is too much" Riley said sighing, rubbing her forehead. She would take anything up but that but her baby boy descending into violence? It was uncalled for.

"I get you" Iris said handling her a glass of water.

"Thanks" Riley said taking it, as she took a chug of it, taking the glass off her lips and sighing once more.

"It has not been an easy 13 years" Riley said dropping the glass cup, on the glass table beside the couch, before relaxing more, she stared at the white ceiling.

"I know Riley" Iris said seating beside her.

"You’re very strong, because of you and Liam’s sacrifice we get to know peace, something we never thought was possible... Riley you created a safer world for the next generation, you created a safe city for the twins to live in, no more fear of being hunted ever again" she states.

It was a dream, no ghouls ever expected to have.

Riley smiled at her words, turning to face her.

"Thank you Iris" Riley said with a smile against her lips.

"You’re welcome... now let’s get to work, we’re meeting some officials soon" Iris said.

"Ugh" Riley growled. "More? I thought I was done with most of it? I fucking need a break" she said and then her eyes lit with an idea. "A vacation would be nice, I never had the chance to even enjoy my honey moon"

"You’re ghoul Queen after all" Iris said in a sing tone voice as she rise to her feet.

Riley sighs getting up on her feet, adjusting her gown, before walking right after Iris.

"Not just in name it seems" she breathed.

"What’s next on my schedule?"

"You’re not gonna believe this" Iris replied.

This was not the first and Riley was not bothered at all, instead she was more geared than ever.

"Nothing surprise me anymore, bring it"

The Suv passed the busy road before taking a turn towards a lonely one. Earl made another turn. The streetlights the only source of light.

"Happy we saw dad?" Ethan asked.

"Of course" Eden said with a smile against her lips but then it slowly fades as her eyes sadden.

"What’s wrong?" Ethan asked worried seeing her sudden change of features.

"Is dad ever gonna wake up, Ethan?" She asked sadly. "I’ve a strong feeling he will but..."

Ethan froze at her question, he gulps hard, that thought has cross his mind over the years, their dad has been in a coma for 13 years with no signs of waking up.

"Uncle Sean is doing everything he can okay?" He assures her, even though the hope was slim he wasn’t gonna let that get to him or Eden.

"I know he will wake up... so don’t give up hope okay?" He adds.

Eden smiled as she nods. "I know that too I just needed to hear you say it"

"And once again you played me"

"No i did not!" She chuckled. "It’s called having faith, and two is better"

Suddenly the SUV stops abruptly. Curious they both turned to face Earl.

"Earl, what’s wrong?" Ethan asked curiously. They weren’t home yet.

"There’s.... someone on the road" Earl said sternly as he stared at the figure blocking the path.

A figure steps out, it was a young woman, she had short straight hair, fringe at the front, kept in a perfect matter. She wore all black, her ghoul eyes present. A twisted smirk against her lips.

"A ghoul" Eden said certain seeing the eyes she has never seen before, but he knew it when he saw it. The pictures never lie.

Suddenly a scorpion leg came fast as it pireced through the glass and then buried deeply on Earl’s shoulder, blood slashed on the twins faces as they stared in shock at what just happened.

Earl growled loudly in pain.

"RUN!" he barked knowing if they stayed they will most likely suffer the same fate. That was the last thing he wanted and he would gladly give his life to protect the twins.

Li Fen smirks as more scorpion legs came out of her back ready to penetrate the car again.

"I SAID RUN!" Earl barked once again, holding the scorpion leg buried in his shoulder from moving. Buying them enough time to run was the best thing he could do in this position.

"NOW!" he barked, desperately.

Like his thoughts finally come through and his body coming alive. Ethan was suddenly again to recover from shook and his first Instinct was getting his sister out of here

In panic he quickly opened the door as they both ran out with locked hands into the woods beside the road.

Fen growled deeply as she watches with her ghoul eyes, the twins were getting away and this ghoul will not let go. Pissed, she turned to the car, the rest of the four Scorpion legs penetrate into the car flinging it into the other side of the woods causing a loud crash sound.

Fen cracks her neck, the scorpion legs swirling behind her.

"Let’s get hunting" she said in Chinese, smirking as she walks towards the direction the twins ran in.

This was certainly gonna be worth her while. She took her sweet time walking, her heels clicking as she did. She didn’t bother to use her speed knowing sooner or later they would run out of breath and the main fun would begin.

The silly ghoul bracelet will be their downfall. They were no different from human being hunted on like the prey they were.

"Keep running children, don’t spoil the fun. I would be disappointed if you do the chase is always the sweetest, little ones"

***

Raspy breaths could be, as well as shoes making noise as it stomped on the dead leaves, the outreach of the city road completely unreachable from this location. Leaving trees traveling for miles and miles.

It was also like the perfect location for a hunt.

Ethan and Eden took harsh uneven breaths as they ran deeper into the woods as fast as they could. They had been on the run for a full hour, running away from an unknown predator.

"Ethan.... I can’t... I can’t run anymore" Eden said coming to an halt as she tried to catch her breath.

This was too much for her body to handle and it felt like her body would collapse any minute.

"I can’t keep going, my legs hurt"

Ethan understood her but they had to keep going.

"No Eden we can stop or that crazy lady is gonna kill us" he hissed. This was no time to wait or rest. There was a crazy ghoul lady on the loose.

"We need to call for help, we can’t outrun her" Eden said.

"I left my bag in the car" Ethan said with wide eyes, gulping.

"I did too".

This was far worst than they thought and now there was no way to reach anyone. They were trapped!

"What’s gonna happen to us now?"

"I don’t know but that crazy ghoul lady is after us, it can’t be good" Ethan said for something. He had never seen a ghoul in action before and what he saw earlier was a clear invitation for death. He was that certain, his instincts were in haywire right now and the ghostly chill to his body told him they were in grave danger.

"Where are you? Come out, come out wherever you’re". A dark sing tone voice came in.

The twins tensed before staring at the direction the dark come from. It was twisted and dark, it was hard not to miss the bloodlust coming from it.

"You don’t think she killed Earl did you?" Eden said with sad eyes worried for his sake. He was already wounded when they left. And that crazy ghoul lady seemed like someone who would do such a thing.

At her words, Ethan clenched his teeth hard as rage build in him at the mere thought.

"Well she’s gonna get it If she did" he said sternly. "Lets show that bitch that she can’t mess with the O’Brien’s" he adds with a murderous look ready to unleash wrath.
