Leo and King:
Trigger Warning
As the tension mounted between Jules and me that evening, brother Leo, anxiously waited near the park. He paced back and forth, fidgeting with his fingers, until finally, with a gulp, he reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. Dialing my number, he was met with the automated message: "The number you are calling is currently switched off, please try later." His heart skipped a beat, the anxiety intensifying. Despite numerous attempts to reach me, he only grew more uneasy and helpless with each unsuccessful call. Feeling overwhelmed with stress, he found himself at a loss for what to do next. Rather than making a decision, he opted to reach out to King instead of coming to see me, aware that I might not appreciate him meddling in my affairs.
He taps his feet Impatiently, while waiting for King to pick up the call. He bit his lip betraying his ego that was breaking into pieces by calling his own brother. I never understood why they had such strong rivalry and hatred towards each other, even though they are twins. I thought most twins shares strong bonds with each other, just like Angela and me. I guess, these two are of different breeds. Finally King picked up the call after few seconds as he hears Brother Leo breathing loudly and panicking even before he could speak.
King was out for a candle light dinner with his new girlfriend when he notices his phone ringing. Picking up the phone in his hand, he checks the name and frowns. Then he looks at his date and smiles widely before kissing the back of her hand.
King: I am sorry dear. But there is an emergency, so we need to conclude our date for today. (He says feeling ashamed) I promise that I will make it up for you, the next time we meet. (He places her hand against her cheek)
Woman: (she pouts slightly but King's charm worked out smoothly as she blushes) F-Fine, but don't do this next time. (She says getting up)
King: (gets up as well as he kisses her lips) I promise. (He says before paying the bill and getting out of the restaurant after her. Before picking up the call as he hears the nervous panting of Leo from other end and hardens his jaw while trying to remain calm) tell me.....what happened to Anne?
Leo: (he blinks confused and surprised at the same time) How did you know?
King: Why else would you call me? (He sighs) Stop beating around the bush and shot.
Leo: Arg....fine. I don't have energy to argue with you anyway. (He bit his lower lip showing distaste regarding the situation) Anne....she promised to meet me after school today.
King: So you people are making plans behind my back huh. (He says with a hint of jealousy)
Leo: Is that important right now? (He frowns)
King: Tsk, fine. I will keep that topic for later discussion. Now continue. (He pouts)
Leo: A-Anne....s-she never showed up for our appointment. (He bit his lower lip while stammering) A-And her phone is not reachable. What should I do? I am getting worried. (His heartbeat starts increasing again, as he breathes heavily while panicking) King, what if something bad happened with our sister? What if she is dying or something? What if.....what if...
King: Jeez, calm down. (He runs his fingers through his hair) Where are you?
Leo: Near the park. Why? (He asks)
King: Stay there, while I find out what is going on. (He sighs) And stop panicking, our sister is strong. Nothing will happen to her. (He says before disconnecting the call, even though he was worried, he tried not to panic, knowing that getting stressed won't give a solution.)
As he reached for his phone to call one of his contacts, his gaze caught sight of a poster plastered by Karl and Bianca across the city. Instantly, a surge of anger coursed through him. With deliberate care, he peeled the poster off the wall, studying it intently. As he moved through the streets, he couldn't help but notice more of those infuriating posters. Determination etched on his face, he made his way to meet brother Leo.
Meanwhile Leo was still waiting at the park, when he noticed King advancing towards him on his bike. Leo let out a sigh of relief and ran up to King who was busy getting down from his bike. Leo was covered in sweat, as his anxious eyes met with King's furious self.
Leo: Did you find something? (He asked getting nervous)
King: I sure did. (He crumpled the poster in his hand due to his rage before handing it over to Leo) It has been spread throughout the city.
Leo: (he frowns before straightening the poster as his eyes becomes red, he tears off the poster into tiny pieces then glares at King) Who dared to do such nonsense? (He says in a low voice trying to maintain his composure)
King: I don't know, I need some time to get to the bottom of this. Maybe by tomorrow we will find the culprit. (He says)
Leo: Hurry up. I can't even imagine, what Anne is going through right now. Our poor little sister must be feeling vulnerable. (He tilts his head devoid of expressions, as he smiles widely) I can't wait to feel the warm blood gushing out of the culprit's body~ (he says blushing slightly while imagining it)
King: Control your thirst, you psychopath. (He pinches the bridge of his nose) Tsk, are you even scared of blood? Or do you pretend to be pitiful?
Leo: (he was about to say something when his phone starts ringing, as he checks the name) Hinata? Why is he calling so late?
King: Who is Hinata? (He raises brow)
Leo: Ah, it is my friend. Oh actually.....his cousin Jules is Anne's friend. (He says murmuring)
King: Then pick up the call. We might get some clues. (He replied hurriedly)
Leo: (he nods slightly before picking up the call) Hey, what's up?
Hinata: Uhm....(He hesitates from the other end of the call) I want to apologize....but there seems to be some misunderstanding between Jules and your sister Anne. Jules argued with Anne in school after being manipulated by someone called Karl. (He sighed) I don't know how it became a huge deal but Jules ran away from her rental place and was crying to me. I am sorry, I don't know what happened.....(he says getting nervous)
Leo: Alright. I will take care of it. Don't worry. (He sighed before disconnecting the call before looking at King) Find out regarding this Karl guy. Every details.
King: (he frowned) I think...I already know. (He cracked his knuckles before he dials the number of his informant) Hey, do me a favor. (He says with an evil smile over his face).
The following morning, Karl and his companions loitered near the school building, anticipation hanging thick in the air. Karl, impeccably dressed, exuded an air of eagerness, as though he aimed to make a lasting impression on the forthcoming rendezvous. Amidst laughter and banter, he effortlessly charmed his friends, the atmosphere charged with excitement. The hours pass by, as he taps his feet getting slightly impatient but the anticipation, kept him going.
Sidekick 1: hey Karl, why do you think Mr. King called you? (He wondered)
Sidekick 2: Why else would he call Karl? Ofcourse to thank him because he brought the true face of that bitch in front of Mr. King. (He grins)
Karl: (smirks) Come on guys, maybe Lord King will finally recognize me. And take me as his underling. (He rubs the tip of his nose feeling proud of himself.)
Sidekick 1: Ya boss! You should have seen that bitch's face yesterday! (He laughs)
Sidekick 2: Well deserved. (He smirks) Hope she would hide in a hole and never return.
Karl: Come on guys, if she disappears, who will become my toy? (He laughs) It is just the beginning, I will make sure the ruin her life.
King: Hey, are you Karl? (King strode confidently towards them, his hockey stick resting casually against his shoulder.)
Karl: (he blushed with excitement as he stands in front of him and stretched his hand) Hello....M-Mr King. (He stammers) N-Nice to m-meet you. I am a huge fan of yours.
King: (raised his brow) For what reason? (He asked confused)
Karl: Because you are the best! Everyone in this locality is scared of you! And you get all the women you want! I really want to be like you. (He grins)
King: (scoffs) You want to be like me? With your attitude? Anyways. (He puts his hand in his pocket and takes out a folded paper before unfolding it and waving it in front of Karl's eyes) Is this, your work? (He raised his brow)
Sidekick 1: (murmurs) Why is he asking that?
Sidekick 2: (whispers in Karl's ear) Maybe he is happy that you exposed that bitch.
Karl: (he gulps his spit nodding) Y-Yea. When I found that bitch was two-timing with your brother, I couldn't control my emotions. I am sorry, I just wanted to make sure that whore gets what she deserves. I can't believe she was cheating on someone like you. (He made a remorseful expression)
King: (he hardens his jaw and clenched his fist hearing his words as his grip tightened on the hockey stick) Thank you....I didn't knew that such things were going behind my back. (At first it might feel like he was agreeing with Karl, but in reality he meant something else)
Karl: (he grins getting excited) Your welcome sir, how dare that bitch betray you?
Sidekick 1: By the way, why are you caring hockey stick with you? (He gulps his spit)
Sidekick 2 : Maybe he came here to teach that slut a lesson? (He laughs)
King: I sure did. (He smirked) But unfortunately, I don't beat women. It's against my policy. (He smiles while thinking about Bianca who helped Karl in this mess) Actually...I need your help.
Karl: (he gets excited and feels recognized hearing those words) We are at your service sir! Just tell us, what happened.
King: (he sighs sadly) Well the thing is .....our beloved sister studies in this school. She is a strong girl but usually gets bullied by insignificant people who think they are better than her. (He rubs his forehead) It seems like yesterday something bad happened with her. (His eyes lowered with sadness as he spoke)
Karl: What happened? (He clenched his fist) Who dares to bully your sister?
King: Listen, some idiot decided to take pictures of my sister while she was with us, then went and manipulated them to make it seem like she's cheating. And you know what's worse? They spread it all over the school and the city. Now, my poor sister won't even talk to us. It's tearing me apart. How can someone be so blind that they can't even recognize family? (He lets out a frustrated sigh. While wiping his tears as Karl and his friends' faces turn pale hearing his words)
Sidekick 1: (gulps his spit) K-Karl (he stammers) W-Why i-it feels like h-he is talking about us?
Karl: How can it be possible? That wench is...(he looks at King and finally realised the blander he created)
Sidekick 2: M-Maybe....if we apologise?.....
King gripped the hockey stick tightly, conveying to Karl that there was no need for explanations. In silent agreement, Karl and his friends began to retreat step by step only to bump into someone. Looking up their faces turns white noticing Brother Leo.
Leo: (he has a wide grin over his face with a murderous intent) You are late. I have been waiting for too long.
King: Jeez calm your ass, and don't hurt their faces or leave visible injuries. Or we will get into trouble. (He sighed)
Leo: Don't worry, take care of the sidekicks, till I entertain the mastermind. (He says taking out surgical knives in his hands)
Karl: (he gulps his spit almost peeing his pants) Please forgive me....(Tears rolled down from his eyes)
Leo: Aw.....but we just got started. (He smiles softly while playing his knife before slicing Karl's arm as blood gushed out from the injury)
Karl: Agh!!! (Tears rolled down from his eyes as he was terrified he tried to run away but Leo made him trip and then stabbed his legs as Karl ends up soiling his pants)
The brawl ensued with a brutal intensity as King wielded his hockey stick with precision, delivering powerful blows to the sidekicks, each strike aimed at incapacitating them without causing visible injuries. With calculated force, he broke bones and subdued them, ensuring they wouldn't interfere further. Meanwhile, Brother Leo's sinister grin remained fixed as he toyed with Karl, inflicting pain with each precise slice of his surgical knives. Karl's pleas for mercy fell on deaf ears as Leo continued his sadistic display, leaving Karl writhing in agony on the ground. As the chaos unfolded, King and Leo operated in sync, each carrying out their assigned roles with a chilling efficiency, all while keeping a watchful eye out for any potential consequences of their actions.
Even though Karl was laying on the ground bleeding and covered in dirt, Leo bro continued to attack him. He was about to cut his face when King grabbed his wrist in disbelief.
King: Have you lost your mind? Do you think, Anne will be happy, if she discovers what you did? (He says warning)
Leo: (his eyes were red with anger and he looked crazy) Leave my hand. I am sure Anne won't mind as long as she doesn't find out. We just need to get rid of the evidence!
King: Enough! (He slaps Leo hard across his face) Snap out of it. He is just a child. Aren't you dreaming to become a Pediatrician?
Leo: (he looks at King in disbelief then realised what he was doing, he bit his lower lip, and squeezed the sharp end of the knife against his palm, as blood gushed out of his palm) You are right. I am sorry. (He said finally calming his mind)
King: (he frowned before turning his attention towards Karl, as he grabs Karl by his collar pulling him up. While glaring at him) Don't think that this is over. After receiving treatment, meet us here. We have something to discuss with you. And if you try to run away, we will make you regret. (Karl nods without a further word. King smiles warmly) Then meet you in an hour. You have lots of work to do, after all you need to clean the mess you created.
