Lahat ng Kabanata ng Red: Orphans and Royalties: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

"It's freaking 5 in the morning!" Raze yelled while having a tug-of-war with his blanket against Claude. The sun is not yet up but the Reds are already dressed up, waiting for Jet and Raze downstairs. "I know! We need to shop early for your clothes and accessories. Now get up and take a bath. Saint will bring your clothes here," Claude fought back, who is now shaking up the sleepyhead Jet. The older environmentalist sat up straight and threw hateful stares at the busy Claude. "I hate you," he said before stomping his feet to the bathroom. "Same goes with you," the vampire replied with a tune.It only took them 20 minutes to prepare since they refused to use bathroom from other rooms. You know, keeping their pride. Just what Claude said, their clothes were brought by Saint in no time. They rode the van and quickly arrived at the mall. Unexpectedly, the stores are all open but there was no single customer aside from them. Conf

"Come in," Silas answered to the knock on the door. A sweaty Magnus entered the room and was about to throw himself at the couch when his eyes met Jet's. "I thought your class is done?" Magnus asked, pointing the environmentalists while catching his breath. "We just started, Magnus," Saint answered. He lifted the books they're studying to show that they're busy at the moment. "Go back to the palace to get some rest." Silas said. "It's tiring. I'll just sleep here. I won't interrupt you, continue what you're doing," Magnus insisted. He's about to lay down the couch when Raze stopped him. "But you're snore so loud," the younger annoyingly said. "I don't!""You do! Our room is just next to yours! We can't sleep properly!" Jet added. Watching the three have a yelling contest might be Saint and Silas' new favorite show. What makes it more exciting is they get to see it everyday! "Stop it! Ma

The wooden door made a noise as Jet and Raze entered. The house is quiet, there are no screams or giggles around. The ample area feels very empty without the Reds, they thought. "You're early." Raze almost ran when he heard a deep voice coming from the kitchen. The two entered, only to see Saint, who's busy placing the chocolate chip cookie dough onto the parchment paper on the tray. After placing the tray inside the oven, he faced Raze and Jet. He greeted them with his usual warm smile and removed the mittens to get water from the fridge. "What do you mean? Do you expect us to go home late?" Raze asked Saint. The latter shook his head before drinking his cold water. "I thought the five of you will come home together," he replied. He gave Jet and Raze glasses, motioning them to also drink some water. "Oh. They are busy at the moment. Hail dropped us here with your family car," Raze said. He immediately pat Saint's back who choked on his drink. "From the theater," Jet added. Th

"Jet." A trembling voice echoed through the dark chamber. Even if Jet widens his eyes, he can see nothing but darkness as if he was blind. "Mom?" No one answered his call. Left with no other choice, he started walking, feeling his surroundings with the use of his hands and feet. "Come home. Jet, come back to us," Jet's mother cried. Tears rushed down Jet's face, frustrated for he hadn't reached her Mom. "Mom, why are you here? How did you come here?" he asked. Seconds later, Jet finally saw a glimpse of light coming from the outside. A silhouette of a lady sitting on the floor is the first thing he noticed. It breaks his heart hearing his mom’s sob. He called his mom once more and ran immediately when she tilted her head towards her direction. "I’ll answer everything when we get home, Jet. I'm begging you, please come home. Your dad needs you-" Before Jet could even touch her mother, everything spun into a hypnotizing circle. He keeps on screaming while crying his heart out.

"My feet hurt. How long do we still have to climb?" Raze complained.They are now at the tower where Jet might be in. Together with Saint and Magnus, they successfully escaped the lurking werewolves. They passed on every rocky and thorny way before getting here. It is such a boomer that Raze isn't developed as a vampire yet, they could just transform into bats."A long, long way, Raze. Now keep your complaints and save your energy," Saint calmly replied.The three of them are trying their best not to create any sound, even suppressing heavy breaths caused by climbing on the never-ending stairs of the tower. They sometimes stop to rest but it doesn't last long. Jet needs to be saved, that's why every second matters. Who knows what will happen any minute?"This is the first time in years that they let a vampire stay here," Magnus said after Jet's familiar scent occupied his nose. After passing a narrow hallway, they finally reached the jail. But he can't be complacent about Jet's situat
