THEY ARE BACK

POV - ADIRA NYTH

---------------------

THEY ARE BACK.... I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!

MY NIGHTMARE CAME INTO REALITY. I STARE AT SENPAI'S CORPSE. FEELING LIKE I AM GETTING DIZZY, ABOUT TO FALL, I SAW A POLICE BADGE NEAR ME.

"What the hell are you doing here? Can't you even spot a girl near our investigation? Useless."

That rough voice was enough to increase my headache. I took a breath and slowly opened my eyes.

"Geez, Lucian, you can't even control your temper. You even made her uncomfortable," I knew that familiar voice.

"Uncle Einar...." I spelled.

"I am here, sweetie, take your time," that middle-aged man in a suit held my hands.

"See, Lucian, you are disturbing her. She is not feeling well, and it's not your fault at all. I won't blame any officers here."

"But sir...."

"There is nothing to be discussed. My nephew matters to me. He threatened him."

"Damn..." That police guy hissed and stared at me with anger. Then he furiously stomped towards the door.

"Uncle.... What's going on here?" I tried to get up from the hospital bed.

"Sweetie... Do you know how much trouble you caused today?" He asked me sweetly.

I felt guilty for a moment. I buried my face in my hands.

"I am so sorry, Uncle. It's my fault. I shouldn't have done that," I confessed to him.

"It's okay, I cleaned up your mess. Now tell me, why did you faint?" He asked. The way he changed his sweet voice into a serious tone made me realize why I fainted there. At that moment, I felt a chill. I covered my body unconsciously. A girl in the cage appeared in my mind. I touched my neck for chains.

"Adda.... Adda.... Calm down." Uncle's faint voice reached me. I was doing all these things in front of him.

"He is back.... He is alive.... He is coming for me," I muttered like a mental patient. I glanced at Uncle. He seemed very serious.

"How did you confirm that?" He asked.

"The Reaper's seal.... I saw it beside the bridge wall. You know what it means, right? Once the Reapers put a seal on something, it belongs to them. Like me." I showed the exact seal on my neck side, which I hid in my long hair.

Now he seemed to stiffen for a moment. I could see the fear hiding in his eyes.

"Don't worry, I will investigate all this matter. Now it all makes sense. Inform your friends and be careful," he told me in a cold tone.

"Yes, Uncle," I replied.

Finally, it's happening again. The Reapers, they are back. At that moment, something flashed in my mind. The haunting blue eyes of Van. I killed him clearly, so how did he survive? If he is back, he should kidnap me at any time. Then why Ayla, senpai? Why did he risk killing her?

Since she is his sister, something is wrong. Is it really for me, or my friends? What do these Reapers want to do?
