Rayver and Axle followed the old man as he invited Rayver to his house. After the old man asks why they’re looking for Chato and Tara, the old man finds out that Rayver is one of the twin sons of his friend, Chato. And Rayver is the one they’re looking for before the couple died in car accidents.
“Please, feel yourself at home.” The old man said and welcomed Axel and Rayver into his small house.
“Are you living here alone?” Rayver asked as he examined the whole place.
“Yes, my wife is already in peace for about four years from now, and our only son is living in his own family now.” The old man said and started to prepare food for them.
“Would you mind if we stay here for a little time?” Axle asked, so the old man looked at him and smiled.
“You can stay here anytime you want.” The old man said, so Rayver watched him prepare their food. He saw that the old man was weak enough to open the bottle, so he accompanied him.
“I will help you with this,” Rayver said, so the old man smiled and shook his head.
“No, please sit down as you’re my guest here.” The old man said. Rayver shook his head.
“No, please let me help. I can’t stand seeing older people do things like this.” Rayver said, so the old man smiled and let Rayver help him.
“You’re so kind, just like your mother.” The old man says, so Rayver smiles while preparing their food.
“May I know what your name is, sir?” Rayver asked. The old man gives him the towel after Rayver washes his hand.
“I am Atom.” The old man said. Rayver looked at him and remembered something from the past.
“You’re the one who always gives me food whenever my dad brings me to his work,” Rayver said, so Atom frowns with the smile on his lips never fades.
“Really? I’m old enough to remember things like that in the past.” Atom says, so Rayver smiles.
“I remember your name because dad always says, ‘Atom gives you food again?’ “Rayver said and imitated his father’s voice, which Atom laughed.
“Chato doesn’t want you to eat sweet foods, right?” Atom asked, so Rayver nodded and smiled.
“He’s always giving me salty and sour foods,” Rayver said, looking at Axle, who was just listening to them.
“Here.” Rayver gives the drinks to Axle.
“Please, take a seat, Sir. I will just bring our food to the table.” Rayver said, which made Atom smiles more.
“You know what, your attitude is really far from your twin.” Atom said and sat on his little couch. Rayver brought their food from the kitchen to the mini table.
He looks to Atom after it mentions his twin’s name.
“What do you mean about that?” Axle asked as he looked to Atom, who was watching Rayver distribute the food they prepared.
“Denver is far more ruthless than your friend.” Atom said. Rayver sat in his chair and looked at Atom.
“I heard that he killed the son of the old Alpha. Is that right?” Rayver asked, and Atom confirmed it by nodding to him as his answer.
“Can you tell us what he did and how he became the new Alpha of your tribe?” Axle asked, so Atom nodded and started telling them the whole story.
~~~
The coronation for the next Alpha will start in a few minutes when Danver suddenly arrives with 4 men on his back; all of them are wearing black, and Danver, who’s leading the group, wears a long black coat.
“Rayver…” Travis, supposed to be the new Alpha of their clan, calls him and smiles when he sees Rayver. Travis calls Denver Rayver all this time, as he knows about him. They’re been friends since Chato introduced him to Travis. “It’s nice to see you here. I thought you wouldn’t come anymore.” Travis asked and was about to walk closer to Danver when the man with Danver suddenly pointed their swords at him, which alerted the guards guarding Traver.
“Lord Travis..” Atom calls him and is about to go near him when Travis signals him to stop.
“Rayver, what is this all about?” Travis asked while looking at Denver, who had a smirk on his lips.
“I came here to stop the ceremony for your coronation as I wanted to make the battle to you to know who’s the strongest between us,” Danver said, which stunned Travis and hurt because he saw his friend doing this to him. For Travis, Rayver is betraying him by what he’s doing to him right now.
“Rayver… Why are you suddenly doing this?” Travis asked, so Denver smirked and looked at the people watching them.
“We all know that a true clan leader needs to be strong and smart. Yet I believe that Travis is not strong enough to be the next leader of our clan.” Danver said, so Travis frowned.
“What you’re doing is betraying your clan!” Atom shouted to Danver, but Danver didn’t listen to him. “Are you deaf enough to not hear what the people try to say to you? Or are you just acting and ignoring their suggestions because you also wanted to be the next Alpha of our tribe?” Danver said so Travis looked to the people from the town who were now shouting to hear what Danver said. Travis took a deep breath and looked at Denver seriously.
“If that’s what you want, then I will hear what you all wanted me to do,” Travis said, so Atom walked closer.
“My lord, please don’t let them fool you. This is again in our clan rule.” Atom said, so Travis looked at him and smiled.
“If something happened to me, please bury my body next to my father’s grave,” Travis said, so Atom frowned as he sensed something not nice.
“My lord…” Atom didn’t continue what he was about to say when Travis handed him something.
“Give this… to the real Rayver,” Travis said before he took his sword and ran in Danver’s direction.
