And here comes Kaizer's confession...and you'll see a side of Kaizer like never before.

Chapter 14: Kaizer's Confession

Max was open to hear what Kaizer was gonna tell him, but Kaizer felt scared...deep inside that Max would immediately reject him or run away from him if he knew his position, so with a deep breath, Kaizer looked at Max in the eye and said, "I'm an assassin."

Max was a little confused as to what it meant, but knowing his father's duty...he immediately figured out what it means and he asked, "A killer?"

Kaizer sighed softly and replied, "Yeah."

Max never expected his first friend would be a killer and the thought of it was really shocking to him and he asked, "Why didn't you tell me?"

"If I were to tell you that, you would've ran away from me. I was actually sent to assassinate your father by someone that I work with and capture him in the process. But he was too fast for me and I ended up getting defeated by him. So...I went over to your house to observe what goes on in that house so I could have a second chance at killing him...and then you showed up and I saw that you were being tortured, abused and taken advantaged of. It really made me see that I wasn't the only one that had to deal with suffering, so I placed that mission on hold so I can keep you company. I didn't know how to tell you because you would just leave me behind, thinking that I would kill you." Kaizer answered, with the final sentence ending with a cracked voice.

Kaizer closed his eyes and tried to fight back tears, but it was really hard to do so because of all the things he kept for so long over the years that there was no other way to let it out other than that. The minute Kaizer opened his eyes, the tears started coming out and that made Max feel sorry for him to live through that and Kaizer said to him, "If you want to run away from me after I told you about me, I completely understand. It is true what others say...I am a monster."

Max didn't really go anywhere and he came closer to Kaizer and said, "Not to me."

Kaizer turns to Max with a deepened expression on his face and asked, "Why not? Don't you know that I'm an assassin?"

"You're not an assassin to me. You're my friend. I wish that I could go wherever you go where I won't see my parents again." Max replied.

"But...would you want an assassin as your friend?" asked Kaizer.

Max nodded his head and he said, "Of course. I don't wanna do what you do, but I just want to be by your side because I got no one else."

That was one point that Kaizer couldn't disagree with and he asked, "But still...why me?"

"Because you're my best friend, Kaizer." Max answered.

Kaizer's eyes were overflowing with tears and Max quickly hugged him tightly, which really surprised Kaizer the most and he wanted to get him off, but the embrace overpowered him to the point where he just had to hug him back and started crying again. Kaizer looked at Max and said to him, "I'm not gonna let anyone hurt you. Even if I were to put my life on the line for you...I'll gladly do that."

"Thanks, Kaizer." Max said.

"No...thank you, Max...for being my only friend." Kaizer said, with a half-whisper.

Well...here it is. Max is still trusting of Kaizer and it looks like he'll be sticking around. Stay tuned for more!
