Mexican Standoff

Pedrarruna Manor, Elffire City.

Theo and Aurora had already finished their morning workout, and after taking a shower, they were in the kitchen.

Theo was cooking breakfast and lunch for Aurora to take to school.

And Aurora was dressed in her school uniform as she helped him cook.

The two siblings were cooking while talking about their days.

It was just another normal day for the two occupants of the enormous house.

But even though it seemed like a normal day, a sound coming from the stairs proved that something was different that morning.

To understand what was that sound, we have to go back to the night before.

Last night, Elffire City saw its first snowstorm of the autumn.

And in the same night, Theo and his friends enjoyed a lovely dinner at his house.

After they finished dinner, their bellies were warm and they just wanted to drink and enjoy the night.

And that was what they did.
