"1 out of 500 Grundos that travel through space every year get brain damage." Master recalled what the doctor said

"W-What?" Khira stammered. She wanted that disease to be a minor setback.

"When your brain starts to slow down…" master stopped and lowered his head even more. "…until it reaches a stage when it stops for good…"

"No…NO WAY!" Khira screamed.

Master got up and sobbed. He started walking away.

Khira didn't want him to go away. He wanted him to stop lying.

But master wasn't lying at all. Everything he said was the whole truth.

Khira thought otherwise.

Just as master was going to enter his room and leave me and Khira, Khira pounced onto master and bit him.

Master screamed in pain. He got hold of Khira's two legs and began to pull her off.

But Khira wouldn't budge. She kept on biting. She was crying like a storm.

"Khira, stop it! Get off!!" Master was angry now. Not sad.

Khira said something I couldn't understand because she said it between sobs. But whatever she said made master furious and he flung Khira across the room.

She hit the wall like a batter hits a baseball. Hard.

I took three paces backwards. My heartbeat was racing. I was very afraid now.

Suddenly master looked my direction. I was petrified. His face was red and teary.

He picked me up and crossed the room, going towards the closet. He opened the door and said: "I'm sorry, Razor. I don't want you to see what I'm about to do…"

I remember him shoving me in and I was knocked out. The last thing I heard was Khira screaming much more than how she was screaming before.
