CHAPTER#3: SAME ALLEY-6:23 AM :

Heals clicking sound can be heard through the eerie silence in that alley. The woman wearing a yellow frok with white flowers printed on it with hot red lipstick, pale skin, sharp eyes and ears like elfs and a brown heel shoes and a brown (Valdevaqueros) floppy hat which hides the woman face only showing her perfect red lips. She kneels down on her feet gracefully and pick some black dust, rubbing it on her white glowed gloves. In easy words, the woman dressing was of 90's or something but it suits her. A smile appears on the woman's face as she looks at the black dust on her right glove.

Another wearing a whole white, with a hat and mask covering his face man comes forward and said, "Ma'am, you're right, traces of stone are found here." The 'ma'am' stand with her back at the man and nods and states without looking back, " You know what to do, i assume?" the male nodded and bow his head a little before disappearing.

The woman raise her dust carrying hand and tilts her head to a side before saying to no one particularly, "Your time's up, 'King'." she started laughing and turns around leaving the alley as more white wearing males or women full covered comes inside the alley and start taking care of the mess of 'dead bodies'.

Scarlet close his eyes as he takes deep breath. He had no idea why he felt so.....feared from himself. After few breaths, scar looks down at his hands with widen eyes and ask himself in disbelief, "What did I just...did....?" He never would have imagine, that he, an orphanage would 'kill' people. Scarlet with a deep breath walks to a nearby park, he was outside and sits on a lonely bench with his head in his hand. Grabbing his hairs and pulling on them in frustration.

A voice startled him, "Life sucks with invisible punches and hurt-ness. Especially, when you have no idea, how to cope with it. You feel stuck and-sick and..just don't know what to do. How to do it? You feel afraid of yourself, of how you believe, of what others think of you. You feel stuck. I am right, aren't I? " scarlet looks at the owner of the voice to find it's a girl wearing simple blue jeans, white shirt with some writing on it which scarlet didn't bother to read and a purple jacket above with some track shoes on and hairs tied in a high pony. The girl was leaning on the side of the bench with her hands inside the pockets of her jacket.

On scarlet staring, she looks at scarlet as well and smiles at him making him flustered and looks away from the girl who giggles little and straightened herself to look at scarlet with an amused face, "You know, they said before sitting or walking, you should know where your going or...where your gonna sit." Scarlet frowns his eyebrows as the girl started laughing. It hit scarlet and he looks down to find that the bench was newly painted.

"SHIT!!" He stand and looks down at his clothes to find paints on them. He sigh frustrated and looks at the trying hard to not laugh but was failing miserably girl before again slumping down on the same bench. The girl stops laughing and smiles at him, "S-sorry, but OMG, haha" she again started laughing making scarlet roll his eyes and looks down at his interwined hands in his lap.

The girl walks to him and place a hand on his shoulder making him look up at her. She smiles warmly before pointing at a clothing store in front of the park.

"Let's get you a change of clothes. They were already dirty so i guess it's not a big deal but hey, come on!!" Before scarlet could even understand what's happening. The unknown girl drag him to the store and despite his protests, she made him buy a dress consisting of plain white shirt with rip blue jeans and a check white and red shirt above the white t-shirt and of couse his black combat shoes.

Scarlet had to admit, this unknown girl fashion sense was on another level. His thoughts went to catriel once again. He sigh, thinking of what kind of torture the poor girl would have been going through right now, given by miss.lila . He looks up at the sky as the girl walks out the store after paying and when she placed a hand on his shoulder, he looked at her and smile softly and a little before thanking her.

"Nah, no need to thank me... oh wait! I just realized, I haven't introduced myself! Silly me!" The unknown girl slap her forehead while biting her tongue before giggling and turning her focus back to scarlet and offering her hand to him with her warm smile.

"Hi! name's Brix and i am 21 years old! and oh! I am a journalist" Scarlet smiles as he shakes the girl now he knows name is Brix hand and leans when brix points him and whisper in his ear like it's a top secret, "And I have a really handsome boyfriend!!" Scarlet couldn't help but smiles wider as he leans back and replied, "Good for you then, sister.brix."

At this brix hits his arm playfully and pouts before saying, "No need to be this formal just brix is fine and also.. i am not 'that' older then you. How old are you? 19? 20?" scarlet looks down and eyes her before replying with his small smile still on his face.

"Actually, i am 17 now."

"oh? still not 'that' young! what are we like? 3 or 4 years difference?" scarlet laugh at this and looks at brix and introduced himself now, "By the way, my name is Scarlet and....I am an orphan."

"An orphan? That's explained alot!" Brix giggles making scarlet smile in a little frown and was about to open his mouth when a black car stops in front of them and Brix started jumping up and down. Scarlet watches in confusion as a tall with broad shoulder man comes out of the driver seat with a black glasses, black shirt and a dark blue jeans.

Scarlet have to admit the other was really intimated with white clear skin. He watches as brix runs to hug other who catch her by her waist with her arms around the other taller then her neck and kiss her lips making scarlet looks away.

Brix giggles after they break the kiss and drag the other by hands to where scarlet is standing and before she could introduced them. The other broad shoulder take off his glasses with a small smile while saying,"Scarlet?"

Scarlet eyes widen as standing in front of him was his 'eden' brother.

"Brother. eden?" scarlet called in confusion and looks at brix who was hit by the realization and suddenly her all demore changes to be more intimating. She grab scarlet hand and said, "Follow us." h er tone of voice also changes to be more intimate and scarlet being confused followed them forgetting that he had school just in 15 minutes.

Once sitted inside the fancy newly black BMW with eden on driver seat, brix on passenger seat and scarlet on back seat.

Scarlet couldn't help but ask, "Where are we going?"

Brix and eden glance at each other with a knowing smile before eden starts driving the car and brix looks back at scarlet on back seat and wink at him while replying with, "Somewhere, secret~" She turned back to look at front and link her right hand with eden left one while continuing to say to a confused scarlet in back.

"Where we all belong, together."
