Let's get this evening started

Time went by quickly as Damion returned back home to meet Theodore and the rest preparing

" Come on and get prepared it will soon be time if we don't hurry we might be late" Theodore said as soon as he saw Theodore

" Fine am going" Damion said going upstairs just in time for Kendra to come downstairs

" Why aren't you dressed yet" Theodore asked Kendra

" Sorry I want to have some water first" Kendra said walking to the fridge

" Hey you haven't dressed yet either" Kendra said looking at Theodore

" oh it isn't going to take time for me that's why am rushing you guys" Theodore said as Ned came down in a three piece dark blue suit, a pair of black shoes and with a pair of block shaped cufflinks

" See Ned's dressed" Theodore said

" Ohh I wanted to say Theo your house interior is wonderful" Kendra said

" My house ?" Theodore asked with a confused look

" Kendra this isn't Theodore house remember I told you earlier at the hospital" Ned said pushing up his glasses

" Hm?" Kendra and now remembered Ned did tell her it was Gustavo house at that time he was hospitalized

Sighing she felt like slapping herself, that explains why Ned looked at Gustavo and not Theodore

" Well this is awkward, erm am going to go get changed" Kendra said and rushed up

" Shh, am going to" Theodore said and rushed up

30 minutes later Theodore came down donned on a 3 piece dark red, his dark brown hair was brushed carefully with some bangs falling at each side

Not shortly after Kendra came down in a long sleeve off shoulder black mermaid fitted gown with silver chains hanging from each side, another chain went round the gown show casing her curves

She wore moderate jewelry with 4inch pointed heel, she held a mild makeup with just blush and red lipstick making her look like an enchantress

" My oh my Kendra you out did yourself" Theodore said

" Yeah thanks you guys also look dashing" Kendra complimented back

" Thanks" Ned smiled with his big glasses

" Well, more than dashing" Theodore said looking into a hand mirror, Kendra rolled her eyes at his action and looked round

" Hold up where is Gustavo" Kendra asked

" Shit" Theodore cursed as if he suddenly realized something and rushed upstairs

Kendra wanted to follow but Ned held her back shaking his head, she pouted and sat back on the couch

Shortly after 10 minutes Theodore came down with Damion donned on a Black 3piece suit, a pair of silver cufflinks, his black hair was brushed back with bangs hanging on a side

" Well aren't you the CIA spy" Kendra smiling at his outfit

" Well I would rather say that you guys are a couple with that outfit of yours" Theodore said teasingly

" Yeah you guys do look like a couple" Ned seconded

" Enough let's go" Kendra said picking up her purse

" Let me drive" Damion suggested

" NO," Theodore crossed his hands in an X shape

" Come on not this again" Ned said walking out of the house

Damion ignored Theodore and grabbed the keys walking out

" No Gustavo am begging you please" Sadly Theodore pleadings fell on deaf ears as everyone settled in the car

" You coming" Damion asked

" We could take a cab, you know" Theodore begged

" Bye " Damion said starting the car

" Okay wait, am getting in oh Lord protect our souls" Theodore got into the car

************************************

In a grand event hall situation inside a huge hotel different families were gathered together, some were socializing with each other while some just stayed on their own

More families were trooping in as the gathering was going to start

Outside the hotel a car was parked at the side, if one could peer inside they would see an aged man with a cigarette

" Sir will you be getting down soon" Axel asked seated on the driver's seat

" Axel, do you think he would show up today" The man asked

" I don't think it would be wise for him to do so" Axel replied

" Wrong I have a good feeling he's going to come" The man said

" But sir to attend you need to be brought in by a family member " Axel retorted

" I have a strong feeling that something good is going to play out, why the rush let's wait to see how it plays out"

**********************************

Back in the hall, Stacy was introducing her friend's father the Owner of Sheldon mall to her parents

" It's wonderfully nice to meet you" the man said

" Yes what a pleasure" Evelyn warmly welcomed him before indulging Jack to do the same

" Yes me too" Jack slowly said

" I just love how our daughters are good friends but I only see Stacy I heard you have another" The man

" Ahh, Kendra oh she would soon arrive" Evelyn said

" What's taking them time we would soon start" Jack worriedly asked checking the time

" Stacy call your sister" Evelyn instructed her

" Yes mom"

Her friend drew her to the side and asked her

" Girl why didn't your sis come with you guys"

" She's coming with her friend" Stacy said trying to call her number but no answer

" Mom she isn't answering" Stacy reported back

" Okay I going to look for a way to call her" Jack said

" It's alright, she's coming with Theodore right if he comes before her then we panick okay" Evelyn said

" Sorry about that am just worried about our daughter" Jack said to the man

" It's alright I will be worried too if my daughter went missing" The Man said and strode into another topic

Charles stood close to the platform and scanned the hall

" Any sign of him or anyone like him" Charles asked

" No sir " Cain replied standing behind him

" What are the results of your search"

" Master Max Fisher lived in isolation he dropped all of his friends the moment he started research on X, the only people close to him are the Martins" Cain replied

" I see this would be harder no doubt but it won't be interesting if it wasn't, search harder I believe there is something missing" Charles said

" Understood" Cain replied

" What time is it"

" 8 on the dot"

" Great please inform Father that it's time"

" Yes sir"

With that Cain left shortly and returned to his side just for Patrich of the Fisher family to walk to the stage

" Good evening everyone, as you know I am George Fisher the current Patrich of the Fisher family and the host of this year gathering, before I continue I would like to appreciate everyone here today and ...."

SHRILLLLLLLLLL....

A loud shriek from a car was heard outside, it was so loud that it couldn't be ignored, some people were sent to go and check out the problem

Some non family members still went out to check out the problem to show "support" as result a lot of people were outside facing a Black tinted car

However for five minutes there was no sign of anyone coming out from the car, the security went closer to request the people from coming out yet there was no response

They were about to knock on the door when the passenger seat opened and a dashing teen in dark red suit stepped out

Followed by him a equally dashing nerdy teen donned in dark blue suit stepped out from the back seat, the other side of the back seat opened up and an enchanting teen in a black mermaid gown came out from the car leaving the driver remaining

The driver seat finally opened up and the sights of the people outside dropped, the met a astonishing looking teen donned in black suit complimenting that of the lady

However on closer look their expression excluding the driver was clearly fear as their skin was pale, oblivious to those watching them, the turned to the driver

"ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL US" Kendra yelled at Damion

" I told you guys he shouldn't be the one driving us" Theodore said almost in tears

" Guys I think am gonna be sick" Ned said panting hard

" What are you guys complaining of you said we were going to be late and I speed up" Damion said in a stoic expression

The three looked at him in a fearful expression, the journey would at least take them 2 hours however the got there in 40 minutes

Every time they thought he would hit something he diverted, Theodore was so sure they would get a lot of speed limit bills thinking of it was, he want to cry

" If you drive like this without drinking what if you're actually drunk" Ned said taking deep breaths

" Are you're not a get away driver or an undercover spy" Kendra asked

Just when they were about to continue they heard a cough and remembered where they were, apart from Damion they let out awkward coughs before apologizing to the security men

" Okay let's get this night started" Theodore said bring Damion in
