‘Regardless of what language it is said, ‘I love you’ stays beautiful, and two hearts beating together make the same sound. It is the language of Love, you know I’d fall apart without you. I don’t know how you do what you do, because everything that doesn’t make sense about me, makes sense when I’m with you It was love at first sight, at last sight, at ever and ever sight.’
“Please, I beg you don’t do this.” Nora cried out in tears as soon as Philly mouth left hers.
Something tiggers Philly heart when he saw how Nora was crying out her eyes. He quickly came down from her body and covers her body with the bedsheets. He turned his back on her.
Sobbing quietly, Nora quickly grabbed the bedsheets and covered every part of her body, she was surprised and grateful that Philly didn’t touched her.
“I can’t do this, I can’t force myself on you.” Philly said lowly to himself but was still heard by Nora. “I can’t rape you, I can’t stand your tears. But the love I have for you is real, I will not allow anyone to come between us.” Philly said in an audible voice and faces Nora once again. “Why can’t you return my love back? I can do times 2 of whatever Philip did that made you fall in love with him.”
“T-th thank you for stopping.” Nora said quietly.
“I don’t need your thank you, what I need is your love. I will take my time and make you fall in love with me like you did to my twin brother, then I won’t force myself on you.” Philly said and stood up from the bed, he arranged his disarray shirt and left the room without a word.
At that moment, Daisy and Dementia made their appearance as the golden ball of light stopped in the room Nora’s was and vanished.
Dementia was the first person to come with the ball of light.
“At last we have found her!” Dementia exclaimed in happiness until she saw the tears in Nora’s eyes her smile faded completely, Seeing the state Nora was in as Daisy appeared beside Nora. “Don’t tell me we came late.”
Nora’s eyes widen up a bit when she saw Daisy. Daisy on her own part was surprised when she saw a clothless Nora on the bed sobbing quietly.
“Did he touch you?” Daisy asked as she moved towards Nora’s forehead and placed her tiny palm on her forehead. She breathed a sigh of relief when she was shown what happened. “Thank the universe that he changed his mind, we could have been late coming to save you. This shows that maybe there are still some good left in him.”
“I was scared Daisy, I pleaded and begged him not to do it, I had thought he would, but surprisingly enough, he didn’t carry out the act.” Nora said softly.
“I am glad he didn’t touch you.” Daisy said, “Sorry I wasn’t there when they came.”
“Yeah, I know your wouldn’t be around, you told me about that, hope your sister is saved?” Nora asked forgetting about what just happened few minutes ago and was concerned about Dementia. Seeing Daisy now gave her hope that no harm shall come to her.
“Yes, she is with me.” Daisy replied with a smile and clapped her hands together, Nora who wasn’t seeing Dementia saw her, another tiny fairy beside Daisy.
“Can she see me Daisy?” Dementia asked.
“Yes, she can now see you.” Daisy answered and focus her gaze once more on Nora. “Dementia was the one who brought us here.” Daisy added and clapped her hands again. One of Nora’s clothes she normally wear, jeans and Tank-top, appeared right in front of Nora.
“Wear this.” Daisy said and clapped her hands once again, the clothes Nora had worn before it got torn by Philly’s aggressiveness disappeared.
“But what if he comes and see that I am in another clothes, how do I explain this?” Nora asked.
“Let him know the truth then, we are here for you. Nothing will happen to you.” Daisy reply.
Nora nodded her head and quickly wear the clothes.
“Now what next?” Nora asked immediately getting out of bed and standing near the window.
“Now we wait, the real truth is about to reveal itself. It’s going to be very surprising.” Daisy responded and flew to sit down on Nora’s shoulder.

Two dark shadows entered the room where Craig was kept without any of the Ninja’s knowledge.
They came out of the wall, dressed in all blacks but not covering their faces. They have jet black hair that matches with their dark eyeballs.
They were super fast in moving along the walls towards the room he was.
Once they were in, they went over to where Craig was laying and bend over him.
One of them placed his hands over Craig’s and started whispering, exactly the way Paul did over Eric when he healed him.
The wounds on Craig’s vanished leaving no traces.
Craig stood up faster than an eye that blinks and held the neck of the one who had healed him.
“What delayed you guys? I could have bled to death you know.” Craig shouted but not loudly almost choking him.
“We are sorry master, we thought you would give us signal to come.” The one he held his neck managed to grasp out.
“Fools.” Craig said after a while and released the one he was holding and turned his head to face the second guy. “Did anyone saw you entered?”
“No master, no one did.” He replied Craig.
“Are you sure?”
“Very sure master.”
“Tell the others to wait until I give out my signal for them to attack.”
“Yes master.” They both said in unison and left the same way they had come.
A cruel smile appeared on Craig’s face.

Paul and Nine Immortals Samurai’s jumped through the fence of Philly’s mansion.
On their way there, something made Paul to stop at Kate’s house and asked one of his Samurai brothers to watch over the house and kill whosoever that entered the compound before he continued his journey.
They weren’t surprised when they saw some Ninja’s guiding the entrance to the house, one ran in to inform Philly about the Intruders.
Before long the Ninja’s guiding the entrance door were subdued by the Nine Immortals Samurai’s.
They stood no chance against the Nine Immortals Samurai’s.
“Let’s wait here, they will come out to meet us.” Paul told his Samurai’s. Nodding their heads, they stood behind Paul, waiting for their enemy to come out.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
___
“Master, some Samurai’s are here.” The one who had hurried in to inform Philly told him.
Philly who was sitting in an old room, filled with various types of Ninja’s weapons, cleaning his sharp sword stopped immediately when he heard the news, he put it back at the sheath.
“Samurai’s? That means, he is not dead.” Philly said whispering the last part. “Call the Nine Fingers.” He said standing up to his feet.
The Ninja with him nodded his head and left to call out the Nine Fingers.
___
Philly came out together with his Nine Fingers Ninja’s and they saw Paul standing together with his Samurai’s.
“Hello Paul or should I say brother?”
Paul was surprised that Philly knew his true identity but covered it up quickly, “Where is Nora?” He demanded.
“Nora is doing fine, she sent her greetings to you.” Philly answered him.
“Since you know we are brothers, I don’t want to fight with you, I only want peace to reign between us. Please release the woman I love.” Paul said in a pleading tone, he doesn’t want to fight his brother if it is possible.
“Why must you be the one to have everything and not me. When we were young, you have everything, mum and dad showered you with so much love more than me, all because you are more intelligent and smarter than me. They left the dull kid behind and went ahead to see the new park with you, I thought you would protest and make them take me along, but no you did the opposite. Do you know how I felt that day? I was mocked in school because of my dull brain and instead of you to stand by me, your own twin brother, you laughed alongside with them. I cried myself to sleep every night because I realized I wasn’t loved that much.” Philly said as Paul began to shed tears.
“I am so sorry Philly, I didn’t know you felt that way.”
“Remember the fire accident that happened which you and Dad thought I had died, I caused it to kill the both of us, but when it started, mum and dad only took you, their precious child away, I wondered what happened to mum or dad hands if one of them had picked me up from that fire also, but no, she and dad picked you and left me to die in there. I also caused the accident that took mother away from you, I want you to feel a little bit of the pains I went through.”
“I didn’t know you were hurt that much Philly, I am really sorry. If that it is the reason why you are doing all these, I beg you please forgive me and give me back Nora, let everything be bygones and let Love rule.” Paul said as he cleaned his eyes from the coming tears still pouring out.
“I wish it was that easy Philip, to be honest with you, I don’t have any feelings for Nora, I thought maybe she might love me but I was wrong, tonight proved it. Probably, if mother and father had shown me a little bit of love like they did to you, maybe, I might be a good son to them and a good brother to you, I wouldn’t be a killer. I just want to be loved but I guess I am not destined too. I have let out all the tears needed a long time ago, and there is nothing left in my eyes again except killing you.” Philly said and started advancing towards Paul with his Ninja’s he stopped. “Leave and stay hidden, I will give you signal if I need your help.” he told his Ninja’s and they all blend into the night.
The nine immortals Samurai’s were about to attack but Paul shook his head to stop them. “Leave us alone brothers.” He told them and they went invisible once again. “I know you might be hurt from the past, I know I have wronged you, I know the past can’t be changed, but please don’t allow hatred to eat you deep, I am so sorry, I am truly sorry Philly. I am sorry I wasn’t there for you when you needed me, I am sorry I neglected you.” Paul said and knelt down before Philly. “I didn’t know you were hurt, if killing me would soften your heart once again, then let me kill myself and you leave everyone I love alone.” Paul added and removed his sword from its sheath and aim it at his chest.
Philly was shocked by what Paul had displayed right now and was deeply touched by it.
“I am really sorry brother, and I will always love you brother.” Paul whispered, closing his eyes and thrust the sword into his heart.
Before the sword would touch his skin, Philly was beside him, holding the sword which prevented it from hitting its target.
Philly knelt down just like Paul had done. “Did I asked you to kill yourself? I-I.. I have forgiven you, I am sorry too.”
They hug themselves crying.
The bloodbath between them someone was expecting didn’t happened.
___
Nora who was watching everything outside the room window, though she wasn’t hearing what they were saying, jumped up in happiness when she saw them hug.
“They are hugging each other Daisy!” Nora said in excitement, “I have to go outside, take me out of this room please Daisy.”
Daisy smiled at that. “Follow me.” She said leading the way as Nora and Dementia followed.
They came out and Nora pushed her way through the Nine Fingers. Paul who saw her stood up from Philly’s embrace and pulled Nora to himself, hugging the living daylights out of her.
Nora returned the hug and mouthed Philly “Thank you.”
Philly smiled and stood up to his feet, he saw something that flew near Nora. He blinked his eyes when he saw the something which flew was actually a tiny human girl or lady, who was smiling at the couple.
“Nora, a tiny fellow is beside you.” Philly said and pointed at Daisy.
“Tiny fellow?” Paul asked with a raised eyebrow as he looked confused.
Nora was surprised and so was Daisy.
“I will explain everything to you later.” Nora whispered to Paul who, still looked confused but nodded his head nevertheless.
“You can see me and my sister?” Daisy asked as she flew nearer to Philly’s face.
“I can see you but not your sister.. wait there are two of you? Who are you?” Philly asked not taking his eyes off Daisy. She was the most beautiful lady he had ever seen, except she was really tiny.
“She’s my best friend.” Nora answered for her friend. “And her sister too, which you can’t see is my friend.”
A hand clapping at the entrance door of Philly’s mansion draw their attention around their surroundings, they realise too late that they have been surrounded by many Ninja’s who had drawn their swords to them.
“Wow, what a nice speech. I must admit, I was touched by your talks.” Craig announced still clapping as he moved towards them.
“Dad? What’s going on here, who are they?” Paul asked.
“Don’t call me that, I am not your father.” Craig announced then followed by a wicked laughter.
“What are you trying to say here Craig?” Philly asked.
“I am not your biological father, I killed him, then married your mother.”
“What? You are not our father and you killed our real father?”
“Yes Philip, I killed him, he stole your mother away from me and I waited patiently for me to strike when the time feels right, unfortunately for me, your mother was pregnant with you two when I had him killed. I tried to sweet talk her into removing you both, but she refused and gave birth to you both. I then planned how to kill you both, but didn’t succeed. An idea came to me and I decided to make you both enemies. I brainwashed your mother into loving one child more than the other one, it worked. Everything was going according to my plan until now. Philip you spoilt my plan, if you have not think of begging your twin brother, by now you both would be dead.”
“So you killed our father because of something you couldn’t get, and you still want to kill us, who knew nothing about it” Paul said still in surprise about the revelation.
“Yes.” Craig responded. “Philly, you weren’t the one who had set the house on fire, I did with a little help. The accident which claimed the life of your mother, I did that, the plane blast, Paul’s death, I planned it all with a little help from someone. I told Kirochi before he came to save you as planned, to make you have hatred for your brother, instead he taught you all the skills and secret of a Ninja, then I killed him.” Craig revealed the more. “I used Magic on you to make you do the things I did Philly and make you think you actually did it. Everything was going according to my plan until Nora showed up. Nora came into the picture. I was the one who caused the accident that took the life of Paul Mirror, I knew that Robert Mirror would make you his son once he set his eyes on you, and he did. I thought making you a Mafia killer would help my plans, because I knew that you and Philly will meet someday and kill each other. But here, instead of killing yourself as I had thought, you are embracing yourselves.” Craig said and spit out in their direction in disdain.
“You used Magic on me, who helped you? Who gave you the magic?” Philly demanded.
“Dementia here.” Craig answered as Dementia flew and landed on his shoulders, smirking towards them.
“Deme who?” Paul asked.
“No way.” Nora whispered.
“Oh, a little fairy that looks like the one Philly saw now. Dementia had helped me along all through the years. Through her I was able to see what the future holds for Philip and Philly. The only thing that prevented her from coming with me was when she was placed under a spell, by that stupid fairy her twin sister had killed.” Craig answered with a laughter.
“I knew all along that you worked for him. I thought freeing you from the spells that bind you to Lora would change your evil heart.” Daisy spoke, her eyes flashing with lightning and anger. “I Thought…. Wrong.”
