"So this means Cain has another half brother. So that means more competition a Cain," Oscar said as he elbowed Cain. Cain lifted up his foot and slammed the heel of his shoe on Oscar's toes. Oscar gave a wail of pain as he hopped around then crashed into a table with a vase on it and fell flat onto his back. Crehador snapped his fingers and two maids came rushing over. One helped Oscar up and the other cleaned up the broken vase. "As you were saying," Crehador said. "I need you to help me to kill my brother." "Why can't you do it?" Oscar asked rubbing his foot. "Because he's a professional assassin and were brothers so he can read me like a book. But I can do the same." "So are you suggesting if we help you kill him you'll find out what he's planning to do to us?" Crehador asked. "Yes." "I don't think we should trust him master," Riff said in a whisper. "Fine you can stay but Crehador," Crehador look over at Cain, "make sure that Jizabel is guarded so he doesn't find out any of our main plans." Crehador nodded and snapped his fingers. Four butlers instantly rushed over to him. "Take the doctor to…. there are no more guestrooms so where do suppose we put the good doctor?" Crehador asked. "I'm sure there's space in Oscar's room," Cain stated. Oscar gave a loud gulp.
"So exactly how many people have you killed?" Alexis asked looking interested. "About thirty-one," Rupert replied holding out an arm with thirty-one scars on it that looked like tally marks. Alexis gave an evil smile and began planning with Rupert. Suddenly Rupert asked, "Where is my brother?" "Oh him he is not much use to so let him do what he wants," Alexis said and he continued talking to Rupert.
That night Jizabel sat and talked with the group. "He'll most likely attack when you're in public so all of you must not leave the house," everyone seemed to agree with this. "Cain make sure your sister is with you at all times for she's the one you care about the most am I right?" Cain nodded. "Now Cain what can you and your friends do for me?" Jizabel asked. I'll give you a poison that you can use on your brother when you return back but it will be hard to make so I must ask one more favor of you," "And what would that be?" the doctor ask. "You must tell me were Alexis's hide out is."
For the rest of the evening they took the time to stop planning and enjoy themselves. Everyone even the doctor laughed and drank until it became very late. The doctor was escorted up to Oscars room by the four butlers Crehador had gave him to make sure he didn't cause any problems. Cain headed down to Crehador's basement to create the poison. He was nearly done with it when he heard a loud bang. Cain rushed up stairs to Oscar's room to see Crehador Riff and Mary waiting at the door. Cain pushed into the room to see Jizabel, hunched over on the floor grabbing his side and Oscar kneeling right beside him. "Cain he was shot," Oscar said Cain rushed over to Jizabel. "What happened?" Cain asked. "Some guy came into the room and pointed a gun at me and right before he could shoot he notice the doctor and he shot him. Then when he heard everyone come into the room he left through the window." "Damn my brother," Jizabel muttered, "now he'll tell Alexis I'm a traitor." "Anyway that doesn't matter are you okay?" Cain asked. "Why would you care?" Jizabel asked looking up at Cain. "Because we're working together we should help each other," as Cain said this everyone nodded. The doctor's eyes began to water until a little stream of tears came down his face.
