(Thanks to Angie2282, Lance-Dusk, AlexTheMortal, and Zro-Kemuri 9t6. Shocker, huh? Well, prepare for more shocks this chapter. This is also the chapter where everything from Final Destination Director's Cut and onwards in the series start the fix itself. The puzzle will be completed this chapter. I actually think I'm nearing the end of this story? I'm not sure yet. Read on for a LOT of explaination!
Trent's faced suddenly turned to anger as the majority of the group gasped. "My name... Trent fuckin' Callaway. Not any more. I hated that family, just like I hated you Paige."
Paige was shell shocked that Trent actually had the nerve the reveal the secret.
Trent shook his head. "I hated you, our parents and practically everyone related to us! I despised you so much I ran away from the house. While you were befriending the likes of Kevin Fischer, I was living on the streets, I made my life my own, not be persuaded by anyone else."
"They never understood." Paige muttered. "We never understood why you ran away. You were nothing more than a child like me."
"Yeah, like you." Trent spat. "I hated that family due to the fact they forced everything upon us! You submitted to their will, Paige, but I'd have none of it! None of it at all!"
"Wait a second..." Leslie spoke out. "As much as it's a shock for you two to be related, why is it such a big deal? Your making it sound as if you two are the most important people in the world."
"But don't you get it, Carlson? We ARE the most important people in the world! Everyone right here is important. Paige and I, you, William, Zeke, even the two girls, they are important, we are important! Not the frozen ones, but us! The fact that I'm Paige's brother is important because of who our parents are!"
"What do you mean?" Page asked. "My parents were normal, my dad worked hard, and mum cared for the house."
"You really believe, that, do you?" Trent took a few step forwards. "You really believe that those two fraudulent people were your parents, were our parents?"
"Of course I do." Paige said with a bit of uncertainty.
"No. No way. They weren't are parents." Trent shook his head. "Let me explain something. All of us here have abilities..."
"What?" Paige questioned. "You and William are..."
"Yes." Trent said. "We have the same blood type as you. And it is this blood type which is so important. Your scientists call it Blood Type X."
"So?"
"Well, if you look closely at our DNA." Trent said, motioning to himself and Paige. "We have different DNA from the others, yet similar. Ours is different in the fact ours is pure."
"What are you saying? What do you mean?" Paige asked.
"What I mean..." Trent said with a hint of malice. "What I mean is that our parents are the original people who had the Blood Type X. Our parents were the results of accidents who were expected to die at birth, straight out of the womb. In a way, they did. I'm sure you are itching to know who they are. Well, you've already met our father." Trent turned to the floor. "Our mother is nowhere to be seen. Gone." He looked up again. "But the fact is, our father, the person who was one of two originals of the Blood Type X is none other than Death himself! He is a human, with the abilities of death. It is that simple!"
Paige shook her head quickly. "No way, you are kidding right there. I don't know what Death is, but he certainly isn't related to..."
"But he is! Test his blood! He is human, science makes him our father." Trent said, his nostrils flaring. "Why do you think WE have the most powerful powers?"
"What powers? What are you talking about!" Paige demanded.
"Our powers! Because we are direct descendants of Blood X's we have the same power. And that power is the power to avoid death and always live. A combination of both our mothers and our father's powers make us immortal."
"No..." Paige shook her head. "You're wrong. I've already died, killed during the zombie outbreak."
"YOU WERE NOT!" Trent bellowed. "Death only wanted you to believe that. He didn't want his daughter finding out about the potential she had. The potential I've unlocked within myself. It might be hard to understand Paige, but everything the last ten years has been hard to believe. You were personally hunted by Death, but not to kill you, to capture you! He wanted to imprison you! But you evaded him with the help of your so called friends. Then, he decided to try something different and disappeared, letting people not die, and thus the zombie outbreak.
"But it didn't work. You continued to evade capture. At this time, I was told... told that I had to find you. Told by a vision, ridiculous at it sounded. I had to make sure you weren't captured by Death. So I rescued you with Victor on my bikes. I was ready to take you to a place told by me in that vision, but fucking Jeffrey was bitten. I should have killed him when I saw it, but he caused us to crash and mangle the bikes. Why do you think I was so angry? I had no way of getting you out of the damn city and to the safe place. I had to do it without you knowing.
"I trusted myself and disagreed with getting survivors to focus on your own survival. It was around this time you knew who I was, so you left me for dead at the school. But my ability kicked in. I always had a knack to heal, and I managed to find you. But you were stabbed! Stabbed without your ability coming to fruition! As you lay dying, Death took that opportunity to take you away! I had failed, failed in my objective!
"I survived that bite from the zombie because I was able to heal, and I went along with the others to Camp Crystal Lake. However, I was driven mad with anger. I killed Zach and went my own way." Trent looked up and paused in his explanation, and Paige was shocked to see tears. "I-I was contacted by Death himself. He explained... explained everything. But I didn't agree with him. He got me in a net though, and threatened to curse me to the punishments of hell. Not just die, but tortured for all eternity! He made me find you. He made me capture you. But I managed to make excuses."
Trent covered his mouth and gulped, as if confused of his emotional state. "You may think I'm evil. Far from it. This is why I got rid of Jack. I have to be friendly with the Generals, I am 'acting' as Deaths right hand man. Don't you see Paige? The reason why you see me around, the reason why I'm always there is because I'm watching over you! I have to protect you!"
Silence followed Trent's speech, Paige feeling slightly faint.
"But..." Trent sighed again. "Death caught me. He gave me one last chance to capture you. And you know what?" Trent laughed. "I'm going to live up to what I was told ten years ago. I'm still going to protect you. I don't care anymore. As long as you are safe, I'm done."
"Trent..." Paige muttered.
Trent shook his head and looked to the others. "I haven't forgotten about you. It's not just Paige. You are also the offspring of either my mother or Death. But they went with a normal human, which is why your abilities are so haywire. I had to investigate who had abilities, and I found out after a long time. I contacted William, and he agreed to take you lot to a safe place, and I had made sure over the years you got to the base.
"Conner, that woman you were chasing, I asked her to run to a certain place so you'd fall down that hole. Damian didn't jump, I pushed him into that hole. Max and Mila? That demon was one of the good ones, and I made him lead those two into the hole. The same for Rain. Alex's friend was a contact of mine! I made the whole area from dead bodies looking like his friends and made his friend send him to the base. The same with Riley and Tally." Trent was breathing heavily now, his eyes darting this way and that way. "But they were killed. All but the ones here now. Lorraine, Christine, Conner, Leslie and Zeke.
"Oh, and don't worry about Zeke. He hasn't jumped sides."
Zeke nodded. "Rose Leardel knew everything. Trent told her before hand. Just before the base was attacked, Leardel told me to find a chance to go to Trent, using that as an advantage to take care of the people who shouldn't be listening." Zeke nodded to the sculptures. "They aren't dead."
"Last but not least, as I said, William also had an ability." Trent said, nodding to William. "His ability was shape shifting."
William did in fact start to change the moment Trent said it, and he shrunk, become white and female.
"Tally!" Leslie exclaimed incredibly.
Tally smiled weakly. "Hey guys. William must have turned back from looking like me. He told me that I should act like him until I turn.
"So... William?" Leslie asked.
"William is currently with Jack. Instead of a small female, Jack will now have a rather large man under his cloak." Trent shook his head with grim laughter. "Right, you guys, you need to go. My chance is up. Take Tally and go somewhere safe. You can't oppose Death. The best bet would be to go to the old base where William took you previously. He's going to be here any moment." Trent said. "Go! Now!"
Paige nodded. "What about you?"
"Me?" Trent shook his head again. "Don't think about me. Paige, you may hate me, but all I did was for you. Don't disappoint me now, all right?"
Before Paige could respond, a sudden booming sound filled the air. What looked like a large black ball shot down towards the floor, surrounded by smaller balls. When the hit the floor, they changed into the seven Generals, as well as Death himself, his face a mask of anger.
Death walked straight forward towards Paige. "So you know. You know exactly what the situation is. But it ain't gonna help you, you know. You are still a good for nothing human! You still haven't activated your powers, and I will take care of you before you can!" Death was practically emanating anger. "The others will die. You will die! At this very moment!" Death was fast and suddenly thrust his hand straight through Paige's stomach, blood spilling to the floor. "Now!"
Paige felt an odd feeling. Not pain, but understanding. "No. I don't know if you are my father, or if Trent is my brother. But one thing I do know." Paige pulled back from Death's arm. "One thing I do know is what my ability is. I think now I can use it exactly as you didn't want me too."
Death watched with seething anger as the hole in Paige's stomach stitched itself together and healed itself quickly. "Kill the others!" Death shouted at the generals. "I'll take care of my resilient daughter."
"It isn't just her you want to face." Trent stood next to Paige. "What is it they say? Siblings stay together until the very end? Well, that's what I'm doing right now."
Death roared with anger, and started towards the others just as the Generals surged forward. "This. Ends. Now!"
