"What? How did you know that?"
Blanche was bewildered by the fact that Hent knew that. She doesn't tell anyone her past, although a few people knew it, she kept it hidden from the people in the organization.
Life grabbed Blanche by the scruff of the neck. As someone would've penned it, she was once a lamb that turned into a dinosaur in a short time.
She could still hear the shot of a gun that time when she made sure that her mom, dad, and brother were dead.
Because if she didn't, they would live in fear, scared by the bad guys in this world when in fact they shouldn't be, life's all about happiness and being free not being scared by other people.
And so she convinced herself for so long that that's the right thing to do. That they killed them be
The devil has no gender. The devil can be a woman or a man.And right now he stared at Blanche like he was about to burn her down.Blanche was still on the floor, she was stunned, Bon looked at her with fiery eyes and when he turned like that, Blanche could just close her eyes when he run berserk.Bon was just a simple guy, some may say he doesn't look like a guy who worked in labs and wears white coats because of his long curly hair and muscly figure. He can be more on the fitness approach, like a gym instructor or anyone who takes exercise as a hobby.But the reason why Bon chose his love for science as a profession was something quirky.Noir told Blanche one when Bon met his first love.The girl worked as a laboratory technician, she's older than him but because it was love at first sight, he followed her and choose a profession just like hers.But their love ended before it began."
"Doe," Bon called.Doe doesn't have that strong and distinguishes personal character that can attract people's attention. She's more on the sharp. Her hair's thin, straight and lighter with no volume at all compared to others but she made herself stand out by when Bon sees her for the first time in a pet shop.She was tied with a leash on her neck and her back was full of cuts and slashes from the whip that tortured her every night. Her hair's black and she was so skinny that time, she resembled the pain etched on Bon's ex-lover. Her cries of pain sound like a howl of the wolf desperate to reach for the moon. Bon became curious and bought her without thinking twice.Maybe because she finds her like with someone in the past. He treated her the way he would treat her wife if she was still alive. She turned her into the lady she was, he changed her hair color, made her who she was right now.But what was it that changed his way
"Astolfo wants to talk to you Blanch, and say sorry to Bon and Doe." Misha sat on the purple quench accent chair beside the Christmas tree of the common area.The mansion has the christmas feel decorated by the twins but they don't know that what happened in the basement of the mansion was the opposite of crhistmas feels.Those two innocent children. They were on the kitchen baking the chewy cookies Blanche taught them before with no idea that Astolfo was almost burned to death by their father.Blanche was pararell with the medium-sized christmas tree with a bunch of gifts under it, this mansion has six Christmas tree inside and the biggest one's outside, the twins were hands-on in decorating those trees insisting that christmas only comes once a year. They should've been tired frim doing all the decorating the whole day but they still have the stamina to bake cookies.Blanche stood up and went back ti the basement, Misha ins
Loading...Astolfo formed his lips into a thin line as he waited for Blanche to answer.But just like the time where he decided to stay on the docks when everybody leaves, because of the note he gave to her, he's looking more ecstatic opposite to what Doe and Bon felt.It was supposed to be a black operation -a clandestine operation that only the three of them knew.It's not like they're rebelling against the organization, but that's close to it rather than any other explanation. Bon has a half-brother named Noir and they both entered the organization without making any noise, their successes screamed for them and they easily promoted on being specials.No one could say they have connections, those two brothers were just skilled and talented as fucked, and they know what they're doing. That comes with knowing if they're being fucked up or not.The organization made the wrong decision of messing with the br
Astolfo stared at the sea, he stood on a shore platform feeling the cold breeze wrapped around him and the tears flowing from his cheeks as he wondered where he went wrong.It's already 3 am, and the sky's starting to clear up as it waits for the brightness to come but his shallow heart still has darkness in it, the night has ended but his heart's still dark.The water reached for his feet as if trying to comfort him but it was cold, his body felt numb and his congested lungs suddenly made it hard to breathe."Astolfo," someone called. It was a feminine voice and excitement rushed over Astolfo."I know you'd come you're just lat–" but his sentence was cut off when he finally had a clear view of that woman who called his name."Misha." Astolfo's heart twinged, his hope disappeared with the air.Misha was standing a meters away from him, she looked like him, she didn't have sleep even a win
Misha's head throbbed as she tried to stand up from the couch that she slept on.Looking around at the table full of pizza crust, chips, chicken wings, and bottles and cans of beer. The carpet in the living room smelled like the vomit of all the drinks and foods mentioned.Her head feels like someone was continuously banging her skull with a hammer. She stood up to distance herself from that smelly carpet and stretch her arms in the small balcony of the room. She was wearing a big bunny oversized shirt and cotton pants, she wore a bunny head house slippers and there's a khaki-colored turban with a ribbon on the side.The sun's already on its full warmth and yet it felt to stay in bed all day and do nothing, but of course, that's impossible, she's an emerging adult now, she needs to find money to fend for herself. That's why she chose the organization, it's easy to gain money and socialize and everything; it's all itself. Per
Blanche ran back to the organization like that wasn't she supposed to do from the start. She didn't wear the uniform for the specials, instead, she wore a wine-red colored gown with a slit on the left leg.She was running like her life's depended on it. After the talk with Astolfo she found herself on the road again, and this time, it wasn't raining, but it started to snow.And as the crystalline white snow falls to the ground, Blanche smiled bitterly, the only thing she needed to do from the start has been waiting for her to realize what she did wrong, and what she had to do next.Astolfo smiled sadly, Blanche had the same expression but more sympathizing."That's what I expect you to say, but I didn't know that it hurts more when you said it." He held his chest and gave a bitter expression.But what can he do? It's already been done, he's in the confinement, and he looked like a murderer now when he just did was express his emotions.
The banquet hall in the dorm was decorated with open flames inserted into hurricane-type glass holders placed on the pillars of the hall draped with cream-colored curtains with wine-red fabric on top, a 3-tiered chandelier in a daisy-shaped with pendant lights that were in brass and bronze, the carpeted floor also inserted such elegance in the room.Blanche open the double doors and was welcomed by elegant people drinking champagne in a wine glass, in suits and sparkly gowns as they talked to each other in groups. She's intimidated to step up and joined them. Did she enter the right room? Yes, she's sure that this was the place, everybody, frequent when there's an event or announcement like when Blanche was promoted as specials and challenged her luck to them.And ended up losing.Blanche could still smell the blood of Astolfo lingering, dancing in her nose, seeping on her fingernails, staining the palm of her hands.
“Never do that again, Blanche.”Blanche nodded, giving in to Hent that she’s wrong on thinking that she could handle all the problems that came in her way alone, sometimes, problems required friends so that you can solve them, just like what Hent said; two can tango.It was in the middle of the night, the moon creepily sought them as Hent and Blanche prepare for the next plan. It’s clear that the vital thing for the organization was not Blanche anymore, it’s Hent, but they learned better, they knew their rotten personality and bad things they did to them, so in order to not have Hent, Blanche arranged that Hent should be taken out of the abandoned building and she’ll be in hiding in the apartment, specifically in the room of Blanche that’s parallel to Ace.She knew how to go there by copying what Astolfo did, peak on the window first, Hent would be shu
Even if Alas looked like a self-centered narcissist, he still has a sense of pity, just a bit though, a tiny bit. For his brother who’s always had the center of attention, for his brother who gets all the love in the world.Alas grew up knowing that he’s not the favorite child, but when their mother died, things take a turn and in just a blink of an eye he was on the room listening to his father as he declared him the next heir of the family’s business.“I won’t let you, Alas,” Ace replied with a stern voice.“Well then.” He walked back to Ace’s bedroom and take a look over the window.“What if I told you that she wants to kill you?”Ace followed him, but his face didn’t move an inch, making Alas conclude that he knew that all along. “How can you do that?” That moment,
“Now that it’s clear Mr. Tassel don’t want to join us, what’s your next plan?”Blanche turned to the computer screen, it was another day and they’re on the abandoned building again, Moss was trying to have a conversation with Blanche while Rat just stood beside the door with his palms buried on his face.It wasn’t like she never told him not to be here ever again, she just told him that his job was done after they got Hent. But Rat doesn’t like that idea, he never talked to Blanche after they got Hent though, it’s always a filler word, sometimes in Moss conversation or in command.Blanche let the poor guy stay. He’s the one who showed them the abandoned place so its just reasonable to let him stay.But one fact surface from all, Blanche thought she could pull Mr. Tassel to let go of the organization and rebel against them, she
As Ace went on to his car with Dog on the passenger seat, he blew air from his rolled-up window and whispered if that’s the thing that his mother wanted.Ace gave it to Alas.Ace’s always the one who gave, Ace protects his brother, Ace loves him, Ace…For years, he has the job of protecting his brother, he had a camouflage and worked at a comedy bar as a jester so that he’ll have a flexible schedule because when Alas needs his help, he shall be there for him no matter what.Because he’s the next leader, the heir to the family, he shall be protected, the family shall put their focus on Alas and trained him to be the next leader, that’s why he always have to do something outside and inside the country, he always have men that observed his surroundings and keep him away from harm, a henchman that would go wherever he wanted him to go.
“Blanche and I were part of a mission to kill your friend,” Misha started, Slidell’s mind wasn’t on the postponed date now, but on the fact that the whole night, Misha opened up to him.He felt like he had a new responsibility to protect, what Misha said and what she’s going to say was something she let him hold, because she trusts him already.“But Blanche didn’t kill him, as what you see. She fell in love with him instead.”Slidell had no idea whose friend she’s talking, not until she continued, that friend… was Ace Crowne.“What?!” He half-shouted and half of the people in the coffee shop turned their heads on them, so he repeated it with a hushed tone,“Why do you want to kill Ace Crowne?”-“She wanted
“Hent, you recognize me now?”It took a few seconds for Hent to reboot, her processor was a bit louder than usual, Blanche could here her CPU running.And it looked so difficult for Hent, because of her other parts still missing, her skin, the narrow fissures, hair and ears, it looked like she was just a standard robot now.After getting her out of the organization, Moss, Rat and Blanche together with Hent went to the abandoned building.The curse place was the perfect hiding place for them, no intruders dared to step out because of the circulating ghost rumors, and no one dared to speak or point on the abandoned building. Seems like people really put the curse in this to the highest level.It’s a cool thing that Rat worked many jobs and have known this. Blanche is not afraid of ghost, she doesn’t believe in one, one could only believe when you first see i
Hent opened her eyes just after the whole lab room lit up.“Who are you?” she saw the lady in all black who entered in the room and step on her platform as unidentified.Blanche couldn’t believe what Hent just said, she was sitting on a silver chair with wires come from her limbs and arm and a lot on her head, there’s plenty of black wires in her head and it’s all connected to the big computer with 2 small ones outside of her platform.She feels so cold, its like something has change but Blanche couldn’t point what that was.Or she could, she just doesn’t want to accept it. As she inched closer to Hent, her metal skin become more evident, it’s like they peeled of her skin, and she’s left with nothing but a white piece of cloth, evidence that she was put to pieces were visible for her skin has a lot of fissures than ever before.
“We only have limited time, are you ready?” Blanche repeated with worry in her voice. Rat’s slicing onions with a butcher’s knife with such mastery and skill, and as if he didn’t heard Blanche from the second time, he turned on the stove and sauté his chopped onions and minced garlic in a pan. The yummy smell didn’t take too long for the whole room to take.“Rachmaninoff.”Rat stopped and watched the spatula fall from his grip. “Blanche.”Blanche crossed her arms and rested the side of her body on the door frame. “Oh, so now we’re saying each other’s name.”Rat turned to the fridge and Blanche heavily sighed. Blanche became worried as soon as she gave him a suitcase full of money the other day on the abandoned building.“This is going to be your payment, you could take i
"If you're going to take your girlfriend to a date, where would it be?"Ace raised his head from the book he's reading to face Slidell.It's all about having a dragon as a pet, he heard Slidell's question, but he's on the part where the dragon caught a robber sneaking in the house, and so he weighed their importance for a moment before taking the time of turning the page to read what's next.Slidell threw a cushion at him, they’re in the living area of his flat, and Ace was sitting on the seat Blanche sat in the morning, with his two feet placed on the coffee table and his nose buried in the book that he found on Slidell's shelf."What?!" Ace caught the blue square cushion that was thrown with just one hand."Who's the girlfriend your referring to?" He closed the book and sat just what Slidell want him to do, he settled forward and put placed his arm on his knee and touch his chin, giving his full attention
