07. thorns of shadow

Slowly, the voice began to echo in every room.

whatever it is..

because some books, flower vase, and some objects on the table were taken and thrown away.

Not only that, some of the drugs that were stored being taken.

but not long after, when the voice began to approach one of the front of the room..

" looking someone? "

Quickly, Bella silenced until fell unconscious.

She had wondered why someone was desperate to infiltrate the house as well as the clinic.

" it's clear, damy. I think 5 people infiltrated here. and lucky I just paralyze 1 person. "

" alright. make sure they not going that room "

Sometimes, Bella gets jealous when Damien does a job he's kept hidden apart from being a doctor at a small clinic.

But what is certain, she knows that there's a reason why Damien really wants to do that.

somehow, Damien can approach and know the location of the intruder through somekind device he hides.

" ah, come on damy. I also want to help recover my poor little Emily. After all, I have quite a few kittens to take care of with my twin brother. " she said as if teasing damien.

" stop teasing me.. you always said like that, even to Emily. "

had complained about a joke that was thrown by Bella, but only for a moment, Damien was able to calm down again.

" isn't there one more thing you want to say "

" more like, more than one thing. " another teased

" Bella.. " shout damien.

" just kidding. "

And when she's done laughing..

" well, there's one thing I want to tell you.

this actually sounds pretty weird because chief allowed me to check a file at your request. but.. you probably know about this. isn't the name brian j. seth, is the name of a man who died as one of victim of murder 5 years ago?

because it's written there, you were also involved in helping solve that case with someone whose name wasn't written on the file. Moreover, the case also claimed the same victim 3 years ago. it's just that, there were only 2 victims, i can only said, they had bad luck.

But the only person who saw the tragic murder 3 years ago ended up having an accident that put in a coma. Unfortunately, in the file there will be no examination records because the existence of the hospital is not written there. It's like a secret that nobody wants to know. " complained bella.

he was silent because still thinking about that. and then, without any hesitation, damien began to sneak up and approach the intruders one after another.

although the room looks dark, but because he knows the structure in each room, so he can sneak in without being noticed.

one by one, he silenced the intruders even though he only relied on his bare hands. he attacked without saying a word, nor was there a sound of exhalation or breathing at all.

" alright bella. it's clear in here.. "

sadly..

There was a loud banging sound. suddenly Damien ran towards the sound. but when he arrived .. how surprised he was because he saw the door of the room had been shattered. Not only that, someone who looks like one of the intruders.

( he fainted. injuries from blows and strong impact )

Damien, who checked his condition, couldn't believe that the person was already lying helpless. although lucky because the person can still breathe.

but unfortunately, he realized that the person came from the room occupied by brian.

" brian! "

Damien saw Brian who just stood still, but his hands were shaking and also covered in bruises.

" brian, you ok? "

" doc.. " he said as if regaining consciousness for a moment.

" what's happened? are you hurt? "

" i'm fine, doc. i don't know what happened. that guy approach me. and I heard him whisper, that I'm not brian and should deserve to die to pieces.. but my body.."

" woah calm down brian.. it's alright " said damien trying to calm brian.

" just tell me doc. If what the guy said is true. then, who am i? why would anyone want to see me die? I don't know anything doc. please tell me! "

Unfortunately, when Damien was about to speak, suddenly someone shot Brian, causing him to become unconscious.

" BRIAN.."

he rushes to catch brian. and when he checked, it turned out that brian was shot by darts. but he could recognize the smell if brian had been shot with an anesthetic coated dart.

" bella, i need your help! Somebody shot Brian with a dope dart. "

unfortunately..

" bella, response.. "

Damien didn't know that Bella was also unconscious. and hit the same darts as brian before..

feeling worried, he rushed to emily's room, he was worried that emily might also be in danger.

on the other hand..

" Calm down, it's still not time for you to show your poison to find out what happened 3 years ago.

even they already know you're here, but don't worry, i'll make sure that you will always be safe, until the time comes for you.

Now, sweet dream! MY YOUNG SCORPION.. " she muttered while keeping the weapon in her back.

although she smiled while looking at the clinic house somewhere, but she just leave while holding her tears, like a mist that flashed and disappeared..
