A familiar described face!

As Tabs sits on the floor outside of the bathroom, trying to contemplate the memories that was once not known, but now they flow through his head like a raging river.

"Why would he never tell me any of this, but most importantly why would I do something like that." He says soundly in his confused and scared mind.

But as he is still trying to wrap the whole situation around his head, he is able to faintly hear Vixx and Scarlett through the door.

"Alright, I am now all done with the bandages, so that means you are free to go." He hears Scarlett say.

"Thanks a lot, it would have taken ten times longer if I had to patch myself up again." Tabs hears Vixx's voice.

Scarlett stands up from her stool, "It is no problem, I mean I am the one who caused the wound so it is the least I could do." She says as she reaches for the doorknob.

Tabs hears this and quickly stands up and relaxes himself to make it look like he wasn't having an existential crisis.

But before Scarlett is able to twist open the door Vixx grabs her wrist and pulls her a little bit from the door loosening her grip from it.

"Is something wrong Vixx." She says and she turns her head to face him.

However, when she turns to face him, she sees the sorrow and guilt emanate off his face as he finds it troublesome to keeps eye contact.

"Please, I beg, don't tell Vixx about what I told you." He says in a deep sorrowful tone.

"I know that it sounds like something I should tell him, but I just don't what him to beat himself up over it, and I know once he does find out he is going to be furious with me."

"But, until that day comes, please don't tell him, I just want it to be a burden I carry on my shoulders, and I don't want to put that one my own brother."

Scarlett's worried face quickly turns to a face of understanding, and she grabs his hands gently, "You have my word."

Knock! Knock! Knock!

As she makes the promise, they hear the knocks erupt from the door, and shortly after they are followed by Tabs voice.

"Hey, are you two almost done, you two sure loves taking your time." Tabs says in a surprisingly soft but cherry voice.

Scarlett opens the door and looks at Tabs, "Sorry it took so long, the wounds were surprisingly deeper than I thought they were, so it took a little longer than expected."

"Oh, okay than, just as long Bro gets patched up it's all good."

"Anyway, Big Bro ready to go?"

Vixx stands up and grabs and puts his shirt back onto his newly bandaged body, "Yeah, ready when you are." He says showing a forced smile.

Scarlett and Vixx step out of the bathroom and follow Tabs down the hallway and enter back into the kitchen.

"Oh, good to see that you two are finished, does that mean you and Tabs are gonna be going now?" Maria says as she clears off the plates still sitting on the dining room table.

Oh, yes ma'am, but are you sure that you don't want me and Vixx to help with cleaning before we go?" Tabs asks concernedly. 

Running water can be heard from the other side of the room followed by Mark's voice.

"You two are all good, besides you were our guest, so just go home and get your rest." 

"Thanks Captain Silver." Vixx says gratefully.

"Remember under my roof, call me Mark."

"No, I'm good, but good to know you want to be close." Vixx says as a teasing grin covers his face.

"You Little Sh*t, I'm Gonna Kill You!" Mark says as he grabs a dirty skillet from the sink and rushes at Vixx.

Tabs quickly grabs Vixx and hoists him over his shoulders and runs for the door, "Well, thank you for having us for dinner, we are most grateful, bye now." He says nervously as he steps out of the door and closes it behind him.

When he makes it out the door he puts Vixx down and begins to walk down the driveway, which Vixx follows without saying a word.

But, before they make it down to the edge of the driveway they hear the front door swing open followed by Marks voice.

"Hey, I forgot to tell you two that the entrance exams start in three months, so when the time comes I'll pick you two up!"

Vixx and Tabs avoid Turing around and both just give him a thumbs up, and continue down the sidewalk.

"Man, those two are a real handful" Mark quietly says to himself as he closes the door behind him.

* * *

About 15 minutes of walking past before Vixx and Tabs speak a word to each other as they both can feel the sudden tension between them.

Vixx decides to be the first to break the silence.

"So, you did end up hearing what me and Scarlett was talking about, didn't you?"

Tabs startled by the question suddenly stops but avoids turning around.

"I don't know what you are talking about." Tabs says in attempts avoid the question.

Vixx looks upon him in astonishment, "Wow, I didn't realize you thought I was that dumb."

"What I'm talking about is that you ended up killing my dad and I kept it a secret from you, there I said what you wanting to hear me say." Vixx states in a calm demeanor.

Tabs quickly turns around faces Vixx and stares intensely into his eyes, "Okay, first it is kinda scary that you said that in such a calm tone."

"But, right now I don't care about the fact that I killed your dad, but it is the fact that you felt like you couldn't tell me, so I. . ."

Vixx grabs Tabs's lips with his fingertips and forces them shut.

"You see I'm not gonna explain a second time because I already know you heard me say it once, and that is that."

"All I can say right now is, I'm Sorry." Vixx says with an expression of regret on his face.

Tabs smacks Vixx's hand off his mouth and calms down a little bit, though still visibly upset.

"Well, at least there was an apologies at the end, so for now lets drop it."

Vixx holds out his arm as if asking for a hug, but avoids eye contact due to the embarrassment he feels.

Tabs looks at him with a sinister grin, "No, I'm not gonna hug you, but I will let live with the fact that I just rejected a hug from my Big Bro."

Vixx shoots his arms down quickly to his side as his face burns bright red in embarrassment.

Vixx in the spur of the moment begins to throw punches at Tabs in attempts to get him back, but Tabs swiftly dodges each punch while laughing in the process.

BOOM!

Vixx is knocked to the ground as someone random collides with him.

"Big Bro are you okay?!?" Tabs shouts in worriment.

"God D*mn, who is the dumb*ss that ran into me!?!" Vixx screams out in anger.

But then he hears someone behind shout back, "Who is the Dumb*ss that was standing in the middle of the sidewalk!?!"

Vixx sits up from his back and turns behind him and sees a familiar described face.

Him and Tabs look at the person and begin to inspect him.

Vixx stands up and him and Tabs begin to circle him.

The boy stands still in confusion and suspicion, "What the h*ll are you two doing?"

"Shhh, just shut up for a second." Tabs says as he places his finger over his lips to stop him from talking.

"Hmm, spikey blonde hair, with blue streaks."

"About, 5' 10", and how old are you?" Vixx says whilst getting in close to further inspect.

The boy leaning back to avoid Vixx answers wearingly, "I am 16, now is that all you needed, because I need to stay on the move!"

"But, why, Keyan!" Vixx says with a smug looks on his face.

The boys' eyes glow a light blue aura as he reaches out one his arms as it transforms into a long tendril grabbing Vixx and pinning him to the ground.

"HOW THE H*LL DO YOU KNOW MY NAME!!!" Keyan shouts in anger and suspicion.

"Hey, what the hell you are doing, that's my brother you got in your tentacle!" Tabs exclaims as his eyes begin to radiate a yellow hue.

Keyan turns his head and sees Tabs and from his back he summons four more tentacles and launches them into Tabs's direction.

Tabs swiftly dodges the first three tentacles, but the fourth one manages to grab ahold of him wrapping around him constricting his movement.

Tabs hangs his head back in annoyance, "Bro, I am starting to get tired of this f*cking day."

As Tabs says that a yellow aura erupts from his body like when he was chasing the bank robbers, and his body begins to transform again.

After the yellow light emanating from Tabs body dissipates, as his body turns into his minotaur transformation.

"Get this disgusting thing of me!" He yells out as he forcefully frees his arms and grabs one of the tentacles and pulls Keyan towards him.

Keyan flies forward and collides into Tabs, "Ow! That hurt *sshole."

Tabs disregards what Keyan says as he grabs Keyan and begins squeezing him in a bear hug, thus releasing Vixx from Keyan's tentacle.

"HAHA, you're not going anywhere Keyan!"

Keyan tries to his hardest to squirm out of Tabs grasp but has no luck.

"C'mon *sshole, let me go I have to keep moving, or. . ."

 He is interrupted as he sees a high-speed glowing green ball flying towards him and Tabs. "Hey, dumb*ss watch out!" Keyan yells out trying to get Tabs to move.

Tabs notices the ball coming at them but fails to move in time as the ball continues only a few feet from colliding with them.

"Hey, I got you don't worry!" Vixx tells them as he jumps in between the green ball.

"I hope this piece of junk works." He says to himself as the green ball hurls at him getting more and more intense.

Vixx presses a button on his watch and a large steel wired net shoots from the top of it and then Vixx press another button and a large force field is formed from the net protecting all three of them.

The glowing green ball quickly slams into the force field and begins to push back Vixx.

But after a few seconds of struggling the green ball plasters onto the force field.

"Well, I am glad that this force field actually worked" Vixx says in reassurance.

But before the can catch their breath the force field begin to disintegrate starting from where to green ball was.

Vixx sees this and quickly takes his watch off and throws it high in the air. 

After he throws the disintegration begins to spread down the net and spreads to the watch completely destroying it. 

"Something tells me that would've been bad if it was still connected to your arm." Tabs says jokingly.

"Now is not time for jokes Tabs, but before we do anything else." Vixx says.

Vixx turns to the direction in which the green ball came from.

*Inhales "WHO IS THE B*TCH *SS MOTHERF*CKER THAT THREW THIS SH*T AT US!!!" He shouts at in a rage.

The three of them sit in silence for a few seconds before a random hooded man appears at the top of a building.

Vixx tries to make out the man but when he takes a look at his face all he can see is the man's fiery green eyes peering through the hooded darkness hiding his face.

Vixx backs up a few steps next to Tabs and Keyan.

"I have a feeling he is the one who threw it." Tabs says jokingly again.

"Tabs I hate you the most when we are in serious situations." Vixx says annoyed

The mysterious man on the roof stares down at all three of them and begins to scan all of them as if he is looking for something.

After a few seconds of him just starring at them he slowly raises his hand in the air.

"Hey, Big Bro what is he doing?" Tabs says wearingly

"I am not sure, but it doesn't look good." Tabs says as he takes a few more steps back.

The mysterious man after raising his begins to charge a large ball of glowing green energy.

Tabs scratches his head while starring in awe, "D*mn, that doesn't look good."
