The Plotted Scheme 4

Clari was approaching the house. When she opened the door, she was terrified by what she saw.

Her parents were tied on the chair, they were knocked out, and the rope caused her father to bleed. A sign that he had fought back.

She hastily went to them to try untying the rope. But was stopped by a voice.

"You can only choose one, dear cousin."

When she turned her head to look at the voice, she was more terrified in seeing that it was her cousin, Hernando.

"What is the meaning of this Hernando?!" She yelled at him angrily. When she was about to go to him. She heard a slapping sound. Her father was slapped by Hernando's servant. Is that his coachman?

"What.." She wanted to yell at him again but he was not there where she last saw him.

"I'm here cousin." He smirked at her.

"How did you... get in there?..." Her voice sounds scared. He was already behind her mother.

"Well, why don't you ask him.." He used his lips to point out the person.

"Huh?" Nobody is here beside from the three of us.

No one came. Hernando was already impatient so he run outside. Clari was dumbfounded, with her eyes wide open he saw how he run. That was extremely fast?! A normal person can't be as fast as like that! What is he? What is going on in here?

Suddenly a man was thrown inside through the door causing a loud bang.
