Inside a somewhat dark, cold surgery room, an old man stood there, the red light in the room reflecting off him. This person was doing a procedure on his patient or more likely, victim, who had all of his organs taken out by the old man, Dr. Gabriel.
"The human body is truly fascinating, isn't it?" Dr. Gabriel with an extremely creepy smile and dark face, the red light making it even creepier.
"I agree," the barber said with a slight smile. "It feels great when you slash someone and blood spills all over. It makes you feel powerful."
"Indeed," Dr. Gabriel said, pausing and turning around. "So...why have you come here? I don't think you have come here to talk about blood, although, I would be much pleased to talk about it."
"I have captured a man that is quite...intriguing," the barber said with a slightly creepy smile.
"I see. Very well, bring him here," Dr. Gabriel said.
"You can bring him here yourself. He's in room 102," the barber said with a slight smile. "Anyway, I shall take my leave."
With that, the barber disappeared.

A few hours before...
"I am going to make sure I melt your fucking face," Kael said with a smirk, laughing like a maniac.
"Melt my face?" Maxwell said, his fist driving into Kael's face with lighting speed, causing Kael to be knocked out. "I didn't know you could be this delusional."
Maxwell then touched his own face, realizing that it was burned more than he realized. "How annoying. How would you expect me to go out in the public like this?" He asked Kael even thought he was already knocked out.
"Whatever, I'll just get it healed," Maxwell said, adjusting his glasses.

In the next day, Ronx, Alex and Zombie made their way back to the church and soon as they did, they saw Keth standing there, waiting for them. "Have you dealt with Whiskey James?" Keth asked.
"Yes," Alex answered.
Keth clenched his fists and took a deep breath, saying, "I am sorry."
Ronx widened his eyes, his voice getting slight angry. He took a step and said, "Sorry? Are you saying you won't be able to help us in the fight with Tristan?"
"No. I will help you in the fight. It's about...Whiskey James," Keth said in a slightly sad voice. "He was a part of a major group, called "the doctors," which is a branch group of the Red Cross Organization."
Zombie sharpened his eyes. "I have heard of them...but I didn't know Whiskey James was in that group."
"He's one of the thirteen leaders of the Red Cross Organization," Keth said, his face serious. "The reason I didn't deal with him myself was because I feared. Feared what would happen to this church, to the civilians and...to me."
"I used you all. I put you all in danger so I wouldn't have to get in danger myself," Keth said, his fists clenched and his face showed that he was clearly guilty of what he did.
"That's fine. As long as you help us defeat Tristan," Ronx said, his face neutral. "Plus, a bit of danger in life is always fun."
Meanwhile, Alex sighed and looked at Keth coldly, sharpening his eyes but he kept quiet.

Rose and Lucius were standing in front of the barber shop.
Lucius was a fifteen year old boy, who was quite the unknown person. Nothing was known about him other than his age, gender and name. No one knew a damn thing about him other than the CEO.
"After a bit of investigating, I found out that the last place he visited was this shop," Lucius said, approaching the shop and noticing that it was closed.
"Closed...hmmm, I guess there's no other choice," Lucius said, destroying the glass and entering, opening the door for her.
He then turned on the lights and saw a mess. The entire shop was basically destroyed, furnitures were upside down, all of the mirrors had shattered, causing small pieces of glass to cover the entire floor and the worst thing of all, there was blood stains that didn't look too old. "These blood stains are only 14 hours old," Lucius thought, looking around and then coming to a conclusion.
"What...happened here," Rose said, her face full of shock and despair. "This looks like... Caspian's black hole made this mess! Did he fight?! What happened to him?!"
"He must have died and disposed of," Lucius replied, leaving the barber shop. "Forget about him, I'll get you a new bodyguard."
"...Forget about him...? Are you serious right now?" Rose said with an angry expression, tears rolling down her cheek. "How can you be so cruel?"
"Hm...I don't know," Lucius answered. "Anyway, ma'am, how about we go back to the mansion? Or would you prefer to be left here?"
In her mansion, Rose closed the door and the curtains so that she could cry, which she soon did, her face buried in a pillow.
