103. Siblings (4)

  Rena starts crying. The moment she saw that my head was pierced by a bullet, she felt like her heart was also pierced.

  "ONI-CHAAAAAANN!! DON'T LEAVE MEEEEE!!! PLEASE!!!! ONI-CHAAAANN!!!!"

  Rena was crying loudly. There are clear hints of pain and suffering in her voice. She felt her chest tighten as her heart felt like it was breaking into pieces.

  "The fuck is this girl? SO FUCKING NOISYY!!! SHUT UUUUPP!!!"

  The man near us was annoyed by Rena's sorrow. He lifted his right leg backward and swung it forward to kick Rena on the head.

  *!!!*

  But all of a sudden, he was stopped.

  "HUH?"

  As the voice of my sister's crying continues to reverberate through the entire destroyed stage, I come back alive. My head fully regenerates by the golden fire.

  "W-W-W-W-WHAT THE FUCK?? YOU. . .YOU WERE DEAD!!! YOUR HEAD FUCKING EXPLODED!! HOW ARE YOU ALIVE??!!"

  I caught his kick with my burning talon. I had moved from my previous spot near Rena, and I am now standing in front of her, protecting her like I should.

  "GET YOUR FILTHY LEG AWAY FROM MY SISTER!!"

  I gripped his leg harder and burned it.

  "UUUUUAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!"

  I lifted him by his leg and threw him away violently. He landed on the debris a distance from us.

  "You okay, Rena?"

  "Onii-chan? ONII-CHAN!!!"

  Rena immediately hugged me.

  "ONII-CHAN!!! I THOUGHT I LOST YOU!!!!"

  Rena hugs me so hard and so tightly that I actually feel suffocated.

  "Ouch! Ouch! Calm down, Rena!! We have to look for Father and Mother!!"

  "*sobs sobs* Okay, Onii-chan!!"

  *!!!*

  But then I realized that we were surrounded by the same men in black suits, all holding a firearm pointed towards us from all directions.

  "FIRE!!! NOW!!!"

  One of the men was commanded to fire. Instinctively, I pushed Rena down to duck her, I grew my golden, fiery pair of wings from my back, and I covered both of us in my wings.

  *BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG*

  The men in black suits shoot their shots nonstop, but my golden wings could easily withstand their bullets with no effort whatsoever. Then I heard them reloading. The gunfire stops for a moment, but then someone else starts shooting again, so I kept my wings up to keep blocking the bullets.

  As they all finished reloading, they began to shoot in rhymes so that every time someone had to reload, someone else would cover them and would continue to shoot. This means that I cannot move from this spot. This is bad, I can't just stay in this position forever. I have to think of a plan quickly.

  The guy from before came back. He was pissed, and it turns out he was a Believer. His Faith power is Vibra Hands, Special type; he can send vibration to anything that he touches. With enough intensity, his vibration can even create small earthquakes. He's most likely the reason behind the tremor from before.

  "YOU'RE FUCKING DEAD THIS TIME!!!"

  The guy, from behind all of the other men in black suits, crouched down and touched the ground.

  *!*

  I can feel vibration from under my feet.

  "URGH!!"

  The vibration got stronger and stronger that it actually made me almost stumble. I had a feeling that if I died now, I wouldn't come back like before. That ability to resurrect myself seems like it has a limit and is currently on a twenty-four-hour cooldown. So that means only one thing.

  I HAVE TO STAND MY GROUND OR ELSE THEY'LL SPRAY MY SISTER WITH BULLETS!!! AND IF I DIE AGAIN THIS TIME, WHO'S GONNA PROTECT HER?? TOUGH IT OUT, RUNELT!! YOU'RE THE BIG BROTHER HERE!! PROTECT YOUR SISTER AT ALL COSTS!!!

  "UUURRGGGHHH!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

  I tried to hold on to stand still, yet the vibration got stronger and stronger, and the ground under me started to crack.

  Onii-chan. . .

  He's always doing his best, no matter what he does. No matter what it is that he's doing, he's always giving his all. And even now, when our lives are at stake. Just one mistake could end us both.

  . . . .

  No. . .

  Onii-chan. . .

  I. . .

  I will not let you handle all the burden. . .

  I lost all of my family. . .

  Mother picked me up and gave me a new one. . .

  My father was so kind, gentle, and loving. . .

  And then my brother was the best of his kind. . .

  All of the maids and butlers back at the mansion were all wonderful people. . .

  Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

  Mother taught me all of those skills that I will need in the future. . .

  Father taught me stuff about business for the future. . .

  My brother taught me stuff about relationships and love. . .

  And all of the maids and butlers were genuinely caring and worried about my well-being. . .

  But right now. . .

  All I have is my brother. . .

  And he's currently doing his best to protect me. . .

  No. . .

  Onii-chan. . .

  I don't want to just stay still and do nothing. . .

  I want to help you too, however much I can. . .

  Onii-chan. . .

  You will not fight alone. . .

  I. . .

  I WILL ALSO FIGHT!!

  ONII-CHAN!!! LET'S FIGHT TOGETHER!!!

  IF THERE ARE TWO OF US, THEN NOTHING CAN STOP US!!!

  .

  "URKH!! My legs are shaking so badly! The ground is gonna break soon!!"

  *!?*

  As I tried my hardest to cover for Rena, her entire body was suddenly engulfed in a bright white sphere. The sphere was small enough that it didn't bother me or my position. But then a white light shoots out towards the sky from the top of the sphere. And then the light slowly changes color into scarlet. The light fades away, and the sphere disintegrates from covering Rena.

  "Rena? What happened?"

  Rena looks up towards Runelt.

  "Onii-chan! Let us fight together!!"

  "Huh?"

  Rena lifts both of her arms, and then a wall of scarlet flame emerges, surrounding us inside it.

  "What is this?"

  The wall of the scarlet flame blocks off all of the bullets even more properly than my wings were.

  "Onii-chan, this is my Faith power!!!"

  *!!*

  "Y-You became a Believer too?"

  "This time, I won't just be a burden for you, Onii-chan!!"

  Rena swings open both of her arms to the side, and the wall of the scarlet flame stretches out greatly, and it burns all of the men in black suits, as well as the Believer guy in the back.

  "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

  "UUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"

  "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRKKKKKKKKKKHHHHHHH!!!"

  All of a sudden, I heard people screaming in great and agonizing pain. After the scarlet flame burned them and had scattered away, I saw that all of the men in black suits were rolling on the ground, as well as that Believer guy.

  "AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS? AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRKKKKKKKHHHHHHHHH!!!"

  "Rena, your Faith power did that?"

  "Forget about the details now, Onii-chan!! We have to knock them all out first!!"

  "Heheheh! Alright, let's go!!"

  Rena and I made quick work of all of our enemies. We knocked them out one by one. It only took us a few seconds, and we have successfully subdued all the harm coming our way.

  "Good job, Rena!!"

  "Yay, Onii-chan!!"

  And so, we spent the rest of the time looking for father and mother.

  Unfortunately for us, we found out everyone else was dead, leaving only us as the sole survivors. When I found my father's body, I immediately shed tears as I cried and called him multiple times. Rena was on the other side of the room, and she found mother. She was also dead, as her head was crushed completely by the debris and iron bars falling on top of her head. She started crying as she hugged my headless mother's body.

  We continued to cry and cry and cry. In just one single moment, we lost everything we've ever had. Our father, our mother, our faithful and kind maids and butlers, gone so quickly, just like that. There are no words to describe the sorrow we had in our hearts. As we kept crying and crying, our cries became so intense that our throats started to hurt.

  But then, all of a sudden, all of our surroundings turned white. The One True God appeared before us. That was the time when He anointed us as the Judge of Pride and the Support, respectively. He comforted us and hugged us both. That feeling was so warm. It felt like the perfect love had descended for us. It was the most joyous feeling we've ever felt in our lives.

  After that, it became big news that the Redwingz family had fallen. My father's death was known throughout the whole world. As the weeks go by, the name Redwingz quickly becomes forgotten. Because all of the companies my father owned appointed new CEOs on their own, and they all broke up and refused to continue as a union with one another. They all became their own brand and company.

  As for me and Rena, we both inherited all of my father's and mother's wealth. The amount was unfathomable that if I were to never work for the rest of my life and live wastefully, I would still have a lot of money left for three or four entire generations after me.

  I moved to an apartment on the other side of the world. We left our school and education, and now we work in a pizza restaurant. Even though we don't need to work ever again, I still feel like the discipline you got at the workplace will also help change and make you grow as a person. Rena also agreed with my reasoning.

  We also began to do our Judge duty. Rena and I are going around the world to save people from the sin of Pride. Just because of one man's pride, almost all of my family was gone. Just because of one man's pride, I lost everyone I've cared about. Just because of one man's pride, almost everything I've cherished since childhood was gone.

  Rena became the only relic from my childhood. She is my little stepsister. She is the only family I have left, and I swear on myself that I will always take care of and protect her for as long as I live.

  And so, we continued our life as the Judge and Support duo. We've fought a lot of people along the way. And it seems like my Faith power was a lot stronger than I previously thought, even much stronger than Rena's. This is good for me because that means I can protect her properly from now on.

  The brilliance of our combined golden and scarlet flame as we fought a lot of people, even people from the underworld, has given us our iconic nickname. This is the birth of the Twin Inferno.

  4 July 2018

  Indonesia, Light's house, 21:00. . .

  ". . . . ."

  Rena slowly opens her eyes.

  "Urkh. . .What. . .happened. . .?"

  As she opens her eyes wider, she realizes that she is currently inside a room.

  "Where am I?"

  Rena gets up and sits on the bed. She looked to her left and saw Runelt with tears running down his cheeks.

  "RENA?!! RENAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

  Runelt immediately hugs Rena tightly.

  "Onii-chan?"

  "Rena *sobs* I thought I lost you!!! *sobs sobs*"

  Runelt is sobbing as he talks. It seems like he's been crying for quite a while.

  "Onii-chan, where am I?"

  "This is Light's house! I was *sobs* so worried about you, I felt like my heart *sobs* was going to stop at any moment."

  "I'm sorry, onii-chan. . ."

  Rena hugs Runelt back as she pats his head.

  "You were being too reckless, Rena! *sobs* You should've contacted me before!! *sobs* I don't know what I'm going to do if I lose you too!! *sobs*"

  "I apologized, onii-chan! I didn't understand either, because at the time, I really thought that I could solo her. That was embarrassing because I lost so badly that I was on the brink of death."

  ". . . ."

  Runelt continues to hug Rena. They became silent and kept hugging each other in solitude and peace and quiet for a few minutes.

  . . . . . .

  "Hm?!"

  Runelt lets go of his hug. Rena was then confused as she looked at her left hand.

  "Huh? Didn't I lose my entire left arm?"

  "Well, I said we're at Light's house, so you know who else is in the house?"

  "Lily-nee-chan?!"

  *BAM*

  "RENAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

  "RENA-CHAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!! YOU'RE AWAKE!!!"

  All of a sudden, the door to Light's room was slammed open. Light and Lily have entered to see Rena. The moment Rena saw Light and Lily, she immediately jumped out of the bed and did a dive kick towards them.

  "GAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!! I FORGOT THAT YOU TWO LIVE TOGETHER!! EAT MY FOOT ASSWIPES!!"

  "HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHH?"

  Light and Lily easily dodge her dive kick.

  "WE WERE DEAD WORRIED ABOUT YOU, YOU LITTLE RASCAL!!!"

  "SHUT UP!!! I HAVE NO EXCUSES FOR HAPPY COUPLES, ESPECIALLY THE ONES LIVING UNDER THE SAME ROOF!!!"

  Light walks fast towards Rena and grabs her by the chin and cheeks.

  "LISTEN HERE YOU LITTLE SHIT!!! YOU MADE US WORRY AND NOW YOU WANNA PLAY GAMES?? DON'T YOU FORGET WHO I AM?!"

  "YOU DON'T SCARE ME, LIGHT-NII-SAN!!! WHEN I THINK OF ALL THE FLIRTING AND HUGGING AND KISSING YOU HAVE DONE IN THIS HOUSE, IT MAKES ME MAD!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!"

  Light immediately lets go of his hold over Rena, and he walks backwards to Lily's side.

  "W-W-W-W-W-WE DID NO SUCH THINGS!!!"

  Both Light's and Lily's faces turn red as they're waving their hands back and forth, denying Rena's accusations.

  Seeing their blushing face made Rena even angrier.

  "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!”

  She holds her own head with her two hands and just screams as she tilts her head upwards.

  Seeing this scenery puts a smile on Runelt's face. All this means is that Rena has made a full recovery. Her life was really in critical danger before. Lily told him that she was just minutes away from actually passing away.

  Dear God, thank you for protecting my sister. From now on, I will be more careful. I won't let her go alone at any cost. I was the stronger one, so protecting her is my duty. Please give me the strength to always keep her safe. My Dear Heavenly Father, Amen.
