The Last Revelation

"That was an odd adventure," she turned round. "No real puzzles, no real action and barely any bad in the big bad of the adventure." She put her hands on her hips. "What a boring adventure. I thought looking for something of Mr. Great's would be more... sandy." Kurtis chuckled, he always liked it when Lara went into a small frenzy when she hadn't had much to do. He turned his head to the living room where Lara had been attacked.
"Can you start up the car? I just wanna check something out."
"Sure, don't be too long." She walked to the car. Kurtis went into the living room. The TV and video recorder had been smashed while the sofa and chairs had been turned over. He looked to his right, there was a small pile of teddy bears, dolls and toy horses. There was also a Ken doll for Barbie, it looked though as if Barbie had ran off with Action Man as they were both lying together. He picked up the yellow teddy. It was soft. The yellow teddy had a small red necktie and big blue eyes which seemed to stare at you. Kurtis ran out of the house.

He walked in knowing that his wife was going to go ballistic at him for being late. Probably the usual nagging, "Where have you been?", "What have you been doing?" and "Are you cheating on me?" Plus, the fact that she could barely trust him, it started to get to him. He loved his wife, but he hated her trust issues. Could she not, for once, just trust what he said. Where he said he had been? What he said he was doing? Obviously not.
"Where have you been?" She asked.
"Out."
"I'm not stupid."
"With the guys."
"I phoned them, you weren't with them."
"Fine, I was out, with someone. I just..."
"Are you having an affair?" She raised her voice.
"No! I'm not," He was getting annoyed. "I am not having an affair. I promise you."
"Yeah, keep saying that to yourself!"
"Please, can we just not fight?"
"Well, you're the one that comes home at one o' clock in the morning. Do you expect me to be all sweet and loving when I have no idea what you've been doing?"
"I'm not doing anything wrong."
"Please," she paused, "Don't lie to me, not again." Her tone of voice softened.
"I'm not." He took her hand, "I only have eyes for you."
"That's what you said the first time." She remembered. He had said that to her the day before their second wedding anniversary. The day after their anniversary he revealed that he had been cheating on her for three months. He ended it a few days before their second year of marriage but that didn't ease her pain. That man she had loved for seven hundred and thirty days had broke her heart. She had threw him out but they managed to solve their problems after a few months.

"Get out of the way!" The man shouted. Three gun shots were heard.
He ran to the woman. "You're not leaving me, not both of you. Please, wake up." He stroked her forehead, "Please." He cried, "I need you." The tears left his eyes. "God, just say something. Please don't let us end like this." He went over to the other body. "Sweetie, wake up. C'mon, wake up."

"Nice teddy," Lara looked at it. "Cute."
"I need to stay here for a while."
"Umm... okay. I'll go back to..." She was cut off.
"I mean myself."
"But, why?"
He sighed uneasily. "Those Lux Veritatis 'visions' aren't 'visions'."
She closed her eyes and figured it out. "It was,"
"Yeah."
"What happened?" She asked, "Unless you don't want to tell me."
"We were having an arguement as I had came home late..."

Kurtis walked in knowing that Mellissa was going to go ballistic at him for being late. Probably the usual nagging, "Where have you been?", "What have you been doing?" and "Are you cheating on me?" Plus, the fact that she could barely trust him, it started to get to him. He loved his wife, but he hated her trust issues. Could she not, for once, just trust what he said. Where he said he had been? What he said he was doing? It was obvious that she couldn't.
"Where have you been?" Mellissa asked.
"Out."
"I'm not stupid."
"With the guys."
"I phoned them, you weren't with them."
"Fine, I was out, with someone. I just..."
"Are you having an affair?" She raised her voice.
"No! I'm not," Kurtis was getting annoyed. "I am not having an affair. I promise you."
"Yeah, keep saying that to yourself!"
"Please, can we just not fight?"
"Well, you're the one that comes home at one o' clock in the morning. Do you expect me to be all sweet and loving when I have no idea what you've been doing?"
"I'm not doing anything wrong."

"That's what you said the first time." She remembered. He had said that to her the day before their second wedding anniversary.

That man she had loved for seven hundred and thirty days had broke her heart. She had threw him out but they managed to solve their problems after a few months.
"Daddy, mummy, why are you shouting?" Geri came down the stairs with a yellow teddy that had a red necktie on it.
"We're sorry princess, go back to bed." Kurtis picked her up and gave her a kiss on the head. "Mummy and daddy are just discussing things." He put her down.
"Run up to bed now."
"Can I get a drink first mummy?"
"C'mon sweetie," Mellissa took her daughter to the kitchen. Kurtis sat on the stairs and put his hands on his head. He sighed. He hadn't wanted an arguement. He was tired and just wanted to go to bed. He walked to the kitchen and stood at the door and watched his wife. She was a loving mother and it made him happy just to watch her being a mum. A fist from the outside world smashing the glass window took him out of his watchful scenario. He turned to the window and spotted the gun. His wife and daughter had froze in fear and panic.
"Get out of the way!" Kurtis shouted. Three gun shots were heard. The first shot his wife, the second his daughter and the third narrowly missed him. He ran to Mellissa. "You're not leaving me, not both of you. Please, wake up." He stroked her forehead, "Please." He cried, "I need you." The tears left his eyes. "God, just say something. Please don't let us end like this." He went over to his daughter. "Sweetie, wake up. C'mon, wake up. Speak to Daddy." He got up. Kurtis ran to the door and watched the blonde-haired man with a leather jacket, black jumper, black trousers and red scarf run away.
