CHAPTER XV – Countdown… (5…)

Nightrale and Magpie finally reached the location Harun told them about. It was a dark abandoned, huge house.

Nightrale and Magpie entered cautiously and couldn't see anything but a broken door and more than door, even the walls were crushed to an extent. They both entered inside and saw many bodies on the floor; they were all Psycho-blades.

"Be careful… they just might be acting you know," Magpie said.

"Yeah, yeah, I know," Nightrale said.

"There could be even a fight going on inside," Magpie said.

"Not hearing any sounds. But count me in if there is. We going to kick all their…" Nightrale said and stopped.

In front of them Psycho had fallen in front of some huge machine. And it looked like a lot of Psycho-blades had died protecting him, as there were many right in front of him. It was the brute-like Psycho who was dead… so Psycho did always say the truth. And everyone including Psycho were badly ripped apart.

"How… where is Tacy?" Nightrale asked.

"The Larynx-mite… it must have reached here before us. We were too late," Magpie said.

"Guys," Nightrale said through her microphone.

There was no reply from anyone.

"Psycho is dead… that is all we could find here," Nightrale said.

"We found many dead bodies of Psycho-blades too, badly ripped apart, just like Psycho. Something did reach here and left many things dead," Magpie said.

"Someone died here too," Kara's voice came finally.

"What?" Nightrale asked in one breath.

There was silence, Magpie and Nightrale exchanged glances, wondering who it was.

"It's Varun," Kara gasped.

"What in the world?" Magpie asked in a disbelief tone.

"I got help. They could somehow… they would want to see Varun," Alias said through the microphone.

"Come soon," Kara said, in a sad tone.

"We must look one last time here," Magpie suggested.

"We'll just be wasting time. We need to save at least one," Nightrale said.

Magpie just nodded in agreement and they both rushed outside.
