Marcus: History's Most Vengeful Disciple
マーカス:歴史上最も復讐に燃える弟子
This series will be a bit more slow paced than normal stories. I'll make sure to have my OC characters to begin to interact with the Kenichi Original characters as Marcus enters into Koryo high school. Go to chapter 1 to familiarize yourself with the list of OC characters that I've made for my series for things to make sense. I am currently working on introducing most of the OC characters and how important their roles will be for the entire series. You will be able to see more action in the upcoming chapters. This is my very first fan story that I am making so expect some mistakes being made and improvements along the way. Thank you for your patience.
Chapter 2: Recovery and Assistance
Opening Song: Fading Away by Demon Hunter
Marcus had previously witnessed the brutal and heartless murder of his family by a gang leader wearing a white tuxedo suit and has barely escaped this gang leaders murderous hands. He now faces an uncertain future that lies ahead of him in a city and country that he doesn't very know well, and with no one to turn for any help. He now needs to find a Hospital to recover his wounds and report his tragedy to the Koryo Police.
Marcus walks in the streets with bruises on his face and bad wounds and cuts on his body. His black shirt is torn up, pants slightly shredded, and his shoes damaged. He is walking limp looking for some of the locals in a desperate attempt to ask for help. "I need to find some help, I can't walk in the streets looking like this!" Marcus thought to himself. Marcus then finds himself looking at a street to his left where there are some locals conducting their business. "I'm sure at least one of them can help me find a good Hospitalin this city." Marcus said. Marcus then proceeded to turn left to the street and walked up to some local city people for help.
"Excuse me sir I need your help." A local man with his wife looked at Marcus and began to tremble in fear. "Uhhh… What kind of help do you need kid?" Marcus replied to the man asking him politely "Is there a way I can be taken to the Hospital to treat my wounds?" The man and his wife saw the serious wounds carved on his chest and his dirty, torn up clothes but were too afraid to help and quickly declined to help Marcus, "I'm sorry kid but this is my first time in this city." The man and his wife stormed off into their car and left without looking back. Marcus turned his head annoyed with the mans selfish response "Tch, selfish prick." Marcus then went up to two slim women a block away who are in their 30's wearing casual dresses. "Excuse me ladies, I need your help!" The women turned their heads toward Marcus and noticed his horrible wounds and torn up clothes leaving them shaken and terrified by Marcus's appearance not knowing who he is and what he wants.
"EEEHH?! What do you want from us kid? And what happened to your chest!?" Marcus took another step closer to the women and begged them for help. "Please.. can you ladies help me get to the Hospital?" One of the women stretched her arm and pointed to a direction while quivering in fear. "Th-The Hospital should be a couple of blocks away over there young man." Marcus looked and saw a red cross from a distance. "Thank you... very much." Marcus replied with a grateful smile while nodding his head. "Can you ladies please help me get to the hospital, I don't think I can make it on my own." The ladies looked to each other and nodded their heads in agreement to walk Marcus towards the hospital. The ladies help Marcus walk towards the hospital limping and dragging with his body becoming very weak and exhausted. As the three stepped inside the hospital through the automatic doors, Marcus went up to the accounting desk to ask for help with patients and nurses shocked and concerned to witness the bruises and scars of this beaten and battered teenager. The accountant lady also looked scared and deeply concerned to see him in such a bloody and bruised condition.
"Please... Madam I need hel-" Marcus fell on the floor fainting landing his face first making a loud thud sound hitting the ground leaving the accounting lady shocked and concerned for this poor teenage boy. The accountant lady quickly grabs the phone on her desk and calls for nurses and doctors using the phone line. "Yes Hello doctor! This is an emergency! We need a stretcher for a teenage boy who just collapsed in front of my accounting desk he needs medical attention now!" Sometime later Marcus woke up inside in a hospital room too see a doctor standing in front of him reading a folder about his medical condition while a nurse was checking on his heart rate while another nurse was treating the scar on his chest. "What's his condition nurse?" the doctor asked. "He's sustained some dreadful bruises on his face and body, along with some infections on the deeper scar on his chest." The first nurse replied. "We're about to apply an injection to eliminate the bacterial infection in his body." The second nurse added. "Good he'll be better in a matter of hours." The doctor happily replied. The 1st nurse noticed Marcus becoming wide awake and informed the Doctor. "Doctor he's awake." The doctor turned back and walked to Marcus side of his stretcher and sat to talk to him. "Are you okay young man?" The doctor asked.
"Yes Doctor, Thank you for helping me." Marcus replied with a glad grin on his face. The Doctor asked Marcus what had happened to him. "I don't mean to ask but what caused you to sustain such dreadful injuries young man?" Marcus's facial expressions quickly became saddened. "My Family… they've been killed…" Marcus expressed with his tears slowly flowing down his cheeks. The doctor and his nurses were caught off guard with such a dreadful revelation and began to pity Marcus's dilemma and decided to call the police. Meanwhile at the Koryo Police station, inside of an office with a desk with large piles of papers and folders stacking up close to the ceiling, a detective wearing a black suit was sitting on his desk with his legs crossed leaning back on his chair reading some papers inside of a folder with one hand while using the other to smoke with his cigar. "Jeez.. these crime cases just keeps piling up by the day." Daisuke looks at his desk seeing the amount of folders that he has yet to read and review. "It's gonna take an eternity going over these papers!" Daisuke put out his cigar and threw it away. Suddenly his office door was barged opened by his police chief. "Hey Daisuke! We've received a phone call from the Koryo Hospital, its a big emergency!" Said his police chief. "How serious is it?" Asked Daisuke. "Some foreign kid in that hospital is claiming that his whole family got killed last night. I need you there to collect information." Daisuke's looked up with his face becoming serious responded back. "I'll be there." About an hour later Daisuke and 2 police officers alongside him where led into Marcus's hospital room by the doctor. The detective greeted Marcus as he walked into the room.
"Good Afternoon Marcus, my name is Daisuke Satoshi I am sorry to hear what happened to your family. I want to help by asking you some questions, is that okay?" Marcus looked at Daisuke with trust and replied. "Sure thing detective. I appreciate your help." "Do you know exactly where and when your family was attacked and killed?" The detective asked. "It took place at the Koryo Mall parking lot, it was around an hour before midnight when the attack happened." Marcus answered. "Can you remember to describe any of the suspects who attacked you?" Daisuke asked. "Yes. There were 7 who attacked us at the parking lot wearing long brown hoodie jackets, with navy blue jeans and wearing black boots. My father, older brother, and I managed to fight them off while my mother was calling the police for help." Marcus answered. "I see." Daisuke said writing down Marcus's testimony on his notepad. "What happened after your family managed to fend off those thugs?" Daisuke asked. Marcus's face began to gnash his teeth replying with a madden tone while looking down while clenching and shaking his fists.
"That sadistic piece of trash with blonde hair with dark blue eyes wearing a white tuxedo came at us with four more of his thugs with the same outfit as the seven who attacked us before came and knocked us all out by himself! All I remember is that we all woke up strapped in an alley against one of the building walls. He pulled my dad in the middle of the alley with one of the thugs handing him a gun to.." Daisuke placed his hand on Marcus's shoulder to stop him from saying anymore. "I am so sorry for your loss Marcus." With a dishearten look on his face Daisuke told Marcus. "We will get to the bottom of this and find the main killer responsible. For the time being we would need you to lay low for awhile until we have captured this tuxedo wearing murderer." Marcus responds gently with thankfulness. "I sure will detective Daisuke, I'll lay low until then, Thank you very much."
Daisuke and the two officers left the hospital room and walk back outside the hospital entrance and gave the officers instructions. "Make sure to check every alley within a 5 to 10 mile radius from the Koryo city mall. Look for any types of clues that is worth finding. I'll check and see if the new delinquents that came in every police jail last night match any of Marcus's descriptions of the thugs who attacked him." "Yes sir lets get to it." Said one of the officers. Daisuke and his officers then split up to begin their investigation. Marcus was then released from the hospital building another four hours later to walk home. Marcus walking with his head down began to think about what happened to him last night, and what he should do in the situation he is currently in. "I don't know what I can do other than just to lay low, there has to be something I can do about this! Marcus now began to imagine about his family's killer still out there, able to roam Koryo City as a free man possibly committing more acts of violence as he pleases and began talking to himself in a wrathful tone. How many more innocent people will that degenerate scumbag kill for his own sadistic pleasure!?" Marcus shook violently and clenched his fists as he stood still in the Koryo city streets."How many more delinquents and low life filth dwell in this city!? I cannot let them to continually prey on the weak just to steal, kill and destroy their liveslike they did with me! He then lifted his head and power walked his way home with a determined mindset to get stronger to defend and avenge innocent people from the hands of every wicked delinquent he can gets his hands on. As Marcus power walks towards his house a long distance away, Hiroto was on the other side of the street sidewalk having his arm wrapped around another cute girl enjoying himself. When Hiroto finishes tease poking her cheeks that was making his new girlfriend giggle, he noticed and recognized Marcus walking on the other side of the city streets and felt like talking to him.
"Listen precious I'll catch you later. Call me tomorrow!" Hiroto quickly smooched her lips and then jumped high on top of a moving bus with great speed, back-flip jumped on top of another passing car, side flip jumped and held on a light pole and then flipped jumped far forward may feet landing on the sidewalk floor. "Hey Marcus do you reme- huh? Where did he go?" Hiroto already lost sight of Marcus walking deep within a large crowd of people. He then jumps and climbs on top of another night pole to get a better chance to look for Marcus from above. "Where is he? I just saw him a moment ago." Hiroto said to himself. Hiroto kept looking earnestly from every direction until he ended up spotting Marcus within the crowd. But as he zooms his eyes closer to him, he notices band aids and bruises on his face and arms, in addition he sees his clothing from his shirt, down to his shoes all torn up. Hiroto's face was shocked to see him physically hurt and became very concerned, he quickly slid down on the ground from the light pole and tried to get to him before he loses Marcus disappearing in the crowd. Marcus meanwhile was power walking in the middle of the crowd on his way home. But little does he know that the 3 thugs who Marcus escaped from the night before were in the same crowd looking for him all day from early morning walking around the entire city.
"He's gotta be around here somewhere!" one of the Akihiro thugs said. "Just keep looking, a tanned skinned kid with black torn clothing should stick out like a sore thumb." Another Akihiro Thug said. As they continued walking and looking around, one of the Akihiro thugs managed to spot Marcus walking past by a convenient store not to far from them. "I found him, hes walking by a convenient store!" Shouted by one of the Akihiro thugs. Marcus heard it loud and clear and turned his head back to see who shouted that sentence. Marcus ended up seeing 3 of those thugs from the night before having their eyes locked to chase him down, Marcus's eyes widened in sudden shock to be tracked down by Akihiro's thugs in less than a day having already sustained serious wounds from them last night and not having the strength to fight back against the three thugs. "Crap I need to make a run for it!" Marcus says in panic. He then dashed away as fast as he could knowing that he cannot take them down by himself without suffering serious injuries or even get killed by them. "Get him!" "Don't let him escape again!" the Akihiro thugs shouted. Meanwhile Hiroto was still trying to catch up to Marcus not yet knowing he is being chased down by the thugs.
"I'll never find this guy if these people keep getting in my way." Hiroto then sees Marcus far off being chased by 3 men. "That doesn't look good." Hiroto then sped his way in his attempt to catch up to Marcus and his pursuers. Marcus is beginning to start panicking in his head. "I can't keep running like this for too long, I've got to find a way to lose them!" Marcus then turned to another street and saw one of Koryo City park entrances where he can attempt to hide in. "There! This could be my only chance to lose them!" Marcus bolted with all the energy he had left to enter into the park. "He's going into the park!" Shouted one of Akihiro thugs. "If you can't find him, block all the entrances!" Another thug shouted. Meanwhile from a bit far off behind, Hiroto is beginning to catch up to Marcus and the thugs chasing him as he notices them turning to another street. "Who are those guys, and why are they chasing Marcus for!?" Hiroto then sped up to see where they turned. "Ah they're chasing him into the park." Hiroto continues to follow them dozens of yards behind. Marcus then entered into the park turning his head left and right looking for a proper place to hide. "There has to be a good hiding spot nearby!" Marcus thought to himself.
"Alright men, make sure to block all entrances, don't let him sneak away from the park!" Marcus looked behind and noticed these thugs are beginning to split up. "What are they up to?" Marcus couldn't make out what they're planning as of yet. "I'll figure it out once I find a place to hide!" Meanwhile Hiroto entered into the park not far behind and jumped high on top of a tall tree to hide himself before noticing the Akihiro thugs separating from each other with a confused expression on his face. "Hmm what are those guys up to? And what do they want to do with Marcus?" When he saw 2 of the thugs running for the other entrances he begins to figure out their plan. "They're trying to block the entrances, not on my watch!" Hiroto said to himself. Marcus ends up hiding in a set of bushes to catch his breath, he then looked on from thick layers of leaves to see what his chasers were doing. "Where are they?" Marcus eyeballed one of them. "He's blocking an entrance!" Marcus turned his head into another direction spotting the other thug. "He's blocking the other entrance! How am I going to escape now?!" Hiroto turned his head down finally noticing Marcus hiding in the bushes from a distance. "Hang on Marcus I'm coming to help!" But Hiroto suddenly spotted the 3rd Akihiro thug sneaking his way to the bushes seeing him pulling out a sharp shining knife from his jacket pocket ready to stab Marcus from behind. "Just stay like that for a little longer, I'll stab you deep and squeeze all out your blood." Saying it with a sickening sadistic smile.
"LOOK OUT MARCUS BEHIND YOU!" Hiroto shouted. Marcus looked behind and saw the 3rd Akihiro thug beginning to attack him. "Time to die kid!" The thug shouted. Marcus responded as fast as he could to avoid the thug, but the knife had already slashed into Marcus's back creating a huge scar from his upper left back shoulder right next to his spine down to his lower back close to his tail. Marcus screamed in pain. "AAAARRRGGGHHH!" Marcus turned and ran with his huge scar on his back dripping blood on the floor creating a trail. "I need to get out and find help now!" Hiroto grew angry raising his fist up below his chin and decided to take action. "Now they've really pissed me off!" The 2 Akihiro thugs ran from the entrances with one taking a knife out while another pulling out a gun and cornered Marcus up against a wall. "Looks like its the end of the line for you kid." One of the thugs said with a cocky smirk on his face. Marcus is trembling and sweating in fear seeing the weapons they had in their hands with no way out. "This can't be! Is this the place where I'm going to die!?" Marcus mumbled to himself. The thugs slowly walked closer to Marcus knowing that they have him cornered. "Time to die kid." The Akihiro thug pointed his gun at Marcus aiming for his forehead was about to pull the trigger! Marcus was staring at the gun with his life flashing before his eyes. "Is this really it? Is this how I am going to die?" Marcus imagined.
Then all of a sudden, Hiroto jumped to the rescue kicking the thug at the back of his head in mid air knocking him unconscious on the hard ground. Hiroto performed a set of back flips in midair and landed feet first in front of Marcus. Hiroto is now looking at the thugs menacingly with reddish yellow aura coming out of him. "You scum got some nerve trying to murder my new friend!" Hiroto told the thugs angrily. "Who is this kid!?" One of the thugs shouted. The other thug then shouted at Hiroto. "You'll regret doing that!" The thug then charged to stab Hiroto in the chest. Hiroto quickly side turned to dodge the knife, grabs the thugs forearm, and pulled him in while using his other arm to strike the thug in the face using his elbow. The Akihiro thug was knocked 10 feet back then fell on the ground with a broken nose and his 2 front teeth laying on the grass. Marcus had a shocked expression on his face when he saw what Hiroto just did. "How did he!?" Marcus mumbled. The other Akihiro thug then charged at Hiroto trying to thrust his blood stained knife against Hiroto's chest. Hiroto then leaned back, deflected the thugs attacking arm with a low block away from his body. "What the how did you?" the thug said. Hiroto then proceeded to step in with his rear leg, executed a forearm strike with his rear forearm to damage the thugs elbow and neutralizing his knife that fell on the grass. The thug screamed in pain. "AAAARRGHH!" Hiroto then grabbed the thugs wrist of the same arm to pull the thug towards him, elbow strikes the thug deep into his chest with his other arm cracking the thugs chest bones and knocking the wind out of his lungs. Hiroto then hooked the thugs upper arm with his forearm and bicep to gain leverage, rotated his hips and upper body with sheer force while pulling the thug over his hips and upper thigh to drive him into the ground. "Okay I..I give up." The thug said with his hands stretched begging for mercy. "I'm not done with you yet!" Hiroto scowled back. Hiroto lastly lifted one of his legs high up with great flexibility and speed and heel stomped the thug down at his face causing his cheek bone to break and teeth to be swallowed.
Hiroto then took a breathe and relaxed himself after finishing off the last thug. Hiroto then turned to Marcus asking him "Are you alright?" Marcus was still spaced out with in shock witnessing how Hiroto knocked out the Akihiro thugs. Hiroto then waves his hand in front of Marcus's face asking him again. "Uhhh… Marcus are you alright?" Marcus then finally snaps out of his trance and replies. "I'll be alright thanks to you Hiroto. I'll just need to have my backpatched up." Hiroto then looked at the unconscious thugs. "Lets call the police and have these low-lives cleared out first." Marcus's eyes lids became heavy began to lose consciousness due to the loss of blood. "Hiroto, I think I gonna…." Hiroto turns his head and began to panic seeing Marcus passing out on the grass losing a lot of blood. "Marcus! Hang on!" Hiroto took off his jacket and tried to cover his large cut wound trying to stop the hemorrhaging. Hiroto rushed to pull out his cell phone to call for the ambulance. After a couple of minutes the police and ambulance arrived and dragged the unconscious thugs handcuffed into their cars. "Lets get this kid into a hospital and have that nasty cut sealed up." a paramedic said with great concern wrapping bandages all over Marcus's torso. Hiroto followed the paramedics into the ambulance truck worried about Marcus's condition. Later closer to midnight at the hospital care room, Hiroto walked and opened the door to Marcus's care room to check on him. "Is it alright if I come in?" Hiroto asked. "Its fine.. come on in." Marcus gently replied. Hiroto walks into the room seeing Marcus laying in the hospital bed. "What happened to you back there? Why were those punks trying to kill you?" Marcus got up from his bed looking down and paused for a second before responding back. "It's a long and painful story to tell you Hiroto." Marcus turned his head to Hiroto and began explaining. "You see... my family... was attacked by those killers last night and… I'm the only survivor left." Marcus said with a painful expression on his face. Hiroto's face became shocked not expecting to hear Marcus's dilemma. Hiroto quickly got worked imagining how the Akihiro thugs killed his family. "I don't know why they came after my family and I, but I do know that this wont be their last time trying to hunt me down." Marcus explained in anguish.
Hiroto clenched his fists looking at Marcus with deep compassion while feeling the urge to help and protect him. "I'm sorry that you had to go through something like that." Hiroto then sat down next to Marcus and continued conversing, "Listen, I want to help you get strong enough to at least defend yourself whenever these thugs try to take your life." Marcus looked to hiroto willing to hear what solution Hiroto is going to offer him. "I know a place where you can learn martial arts." Marcus then eyeballed Hiroto with serious interest. "Martial Arts? You mean the type of fighting you did back there?" Marcus questioned. "Yes, but I have to warn you in advance that they might not take you in, and even if yougo through their intense training regimen, its very likely to kill you in the process." Hiroto warned. Marcus with his eyes closed began to imagine himself inflicting fatal pain and suffering to Akihiro the gang leader who killed his family and the thugs who were with him. He then responded after opening his eyes and getting up from his bed standing. "Well its worth trying it out anyways. I cannot live with myself being a weak helpless victim. I want to avenge my family for what they've done!" Marcus said with fire in his eyes. Hiroto looked away from Marcus with serious face having his eyes closed understanding Marcus's rage. "I'm not the one who would ever encourage senseless violence, but since they've murdered your entire family, I wont stop you from achieving that goal." Hiroto stated"I owe you my life Hiroto, I hope to pay you back some day for saving me back there." Marcus said extending his hand gratefully for a handshake. Hiroto appreciated the gesture and shook his hand. "Don't need to worry paying me back my friend, I'm just glad you're alive." Hiroto replied.
Marcus then proceeds to questions Hiroto about the martial arts training. "Can you lead me to that place to learn martial arts?" Hiroto then answered back. "You'll need to heal up first before I take you there. How about you lay low for a while, I'll take you to the warehouse when your back in top shape." Marcus nodded and replies back. "Sounds like a plan." 3 hours later the two teens walked out of the hospital in the dark night and walked their way to where Marcus's lives. "I'll catch you later Marcus, I've got a hot date waiting for me in the morning and I don't want to sleep in on her." Marcus then answers back slapping Hiroto on his back. "Go and have fun with her tiger, but remember to take me to the warehouse when I get better." Marcus told. "I promise that I will new pal." Hiroto said. Marcus and Hiroto then shook hands and parted ways. Marcus took some steps and then turned back seeing Hiroto already jumping on buildings getting further away in a matter of seconds until he disappeared into the night. "That guy has a new girlfriend already? Maybe I should ask him to show me the ropes in how to get a hot one myself." Marcus thought to himself. Marcus then walked inside his house, walked into his room, laid on his bed with his arms crossed and closed his eyes questioning himself. "What kind of Martial Arts am I going to be introduced to? And how tough will the training actually be? I sure hope that I'll survive through it and get strong enough to protect myself before I get protect others." Marcus dozed off slept.
Meanwhile at that same night inside of a high tower in Koryo city, 3 men with black fancy suits walked out from a diamond covered elevator door at the very top floor, walked through a hallway towards a white door with an outer golden frame decorated with Tanzanite crystals that also has a shining golden doorknob. Alongside of that door there is a button with an audio speaker next to the door on its right side and a flat screen and camera on top of it hanging against the wall angled down at them. One of the men pressed the button to make the call. On the other side of the door, Akihiro is in a large golden bathtub relaxing in his bubble bath drinking his blood moon wine with his expensive wine cup indulging himself. "Oohooh Yess! This wine really hits the spot for this delightful evening. I wonder what kind of delicate dish my chef is preparing for me tonight." Akihiro then hears the audio of his room stereo beeping. Akihiro sighs heavily in an irritated manner. He then gets up and covers himself with a fine bath attire, puts on his flip flops and gets on his room desk to speak to the people calling him. "Good evening gentlemen, I hope you're calling me for a very good reason." Akihiro stated with a smile on his face but with slight annoyance in his voice. "Yes master Akihiro Hikaru sir, its about the boy who you've been wanting captured." Akihiro leaned back raising his legs crossed on his desk reacting in a sadistically gleeful manner while playing with his wine cup. "Ahahah yes, did they capture him alive as I ordered? My dogs are craving for some exotic treats tonight and I've gotten my knife ready to prepare him for my beauties." The man talking to Akihiro on the other line replied crushing his expectations. "I'm afraid not Akihiro sir, the three men you sent to capture him are handcuffed by the city police." Akihiro spat out the wine he was drinking while dropping his wine cup on the floor as he reacted to his minions answer. "Then what about the evidence from the night before!? Tell me they had that at least taken car of!" Akihiro asked in a panicked state leaning his face close to the camera. "I'm sorry but we don't have that kind of information right now, I recommend we find ways to keep the city police distracted and mislead while we try to cover our trail the best we can." The man stated. "IF THAT PARASITE STILL LIVES THEN WE'LL BE FOUND OUT ANYWAYS! THAT THING WILL GIVE OUT MY DESCRIPTION AND MY FACE WILL BE PUT ON THE PRIME TIME NEWS, THEN MY FATHER WILL END UP SEEING IT AND WILL BOOT ME INTO PRISON!" Akihiro yelled at his screen with his eyes becoming bloodshot. Akihiro continued screaming frantically with his face red and hands slamming on his fine table."I ORDER YOU NOW TO DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO FIND OUT WHERE THAT BOY LIVES, SEARCH HIS INFORMATION, WHATEVER YOU CAN FIND! I DON'T CARE WHO YOU SEND OR IF YOU EITHER KILL OF CAPTURE IT, I JUST DON'T WANT THATPARASITE EXISTING IN MY CITY ANY LONGER!" The man replied calmly. "Yes Akihiro sir, it will be done."
The screen of Akihiro at his fine desk that the men watched turned black. "You heard from the second in command, do what you can to find that boy, don't hesitate send anyone to capture or kill him." The men then ran paced themselves back to the elevator. Akihiro from the other side walked into his large room and sat on king sized Italian Royal Baroque Style bed trembling at the thought of being thrown into prison. "How did that slippery parasite survive? Nothingever escapes us to live to tell the tale." Akihiro then looks at a photo frame of him and his father Naoto Hikaru at the fine cabinet next to his bed. "Father cannot find out about this, our empire must continue to expand, and when the time is right, I'll forcefully take his place and launch our empire to heights he never dreamed of going." Akihiro then thought of Marcus's angry defiant face and begins to get furious. "But if that slippery parasite continues to live, all of my efforts to make fathers business into my own will be come crashing down! I'll have to do everything I can to end that worms misery without my father and the city police knowing my existence!"
The sun rose up in the early morning and Marcus was still asleep. "Hey Marcus wake up." Marcus's slowly opened but couldn't make out the voice of who is waking him up. "Wake up Marcus its time for breakfast." Marcus then fully opened his eyes and suddenly sees his brother Macario standing outside his room. "You better wake up little bro or else I'll be eating up your breakfast!" Marcus saw his brother slowly disappear as he ran from his room moving downstairs. Marcus shook his head and wondered. "What am I seeing…?" Marcus got up from his bed with a sad yet dumbfounded look on his face and walked towards the bathroom to thoroughly wash his face. Marcus then turned up and looked at himself in the mirror. He then hears the voice of his own mother calling him down for breakfast. "Marcus come down and eat with us!" Marcus then looked back and hurried himself to run downstairs. "Am I hallucinating?" When Marcus makes it downstairs and enters into the dining room. He sees his family sitting in their respective seats staring at him. "Marcus my boy! Have a seat with us!" Marcus's father said. Marcus was appalled and grieved at the fact that he could see and hear his deceased family as if they were actually there. Marcus's family then looked at him with sad smiles as he approached them. When Marcus approached and stood right behind of his seat, his family began to disappear out of thin air. "Don't go!" Marcus leaned forward in his attempts to touch his fathers shoulders. But it was no use. His hands went past his fathers apparition. Marcus eyes were filled with tears of pain. Marcus sat on his seat and began to weep and wail bitterly while covering his face. "Dad… Mom….. Macario…. You three didn't deserve to die this way!" Marcus began to have flashbacks of his childhood as a young child sitting on his fathers shoulders smiling and laughing, flashbacks of his mother hugging and kissing him on one of his birthday celebrations, and memories of himself and Macario having fun at a summer pool soaking each other using water guns. When the flashbacks stopped, Marcus slowly got up from his table and prepared his own breakfast. When he finished eating, Marcus then put on his outfit of a black t-shirt with an indigo design, dark navy pants, and black and indigo sneakers. Marcus spent the rest of his morning looking onto the skyscrapers on his front yard not knowing what lies ahead of him in the near future.
