“Why tomorrow? Why not today? We need it today!” Said Beth throwing a tantrum.
“Look little girl this is not your home so keep it down, I told you earlier I can’t today since I am all booked today.” That princess attitude of Beth ticked me off, so I gave her a straight uncut answer.
“Beth shut up!… Mr Wyatt, I apologise on behalf of my sister for her rudeness. But there is truth to what she said Pax must get his origin card today. Please is there any way you could accommodate our request, I can not stress enough how important it is that pax gets his Origin card today. We siblings will be eternally grateful if you entertain our request.” Amy glared at Beth to suppress any kind of rebuttal from her and looked at me with pleading eyes, if not for seeing them destroy Susan within mere seconds I would have fallen for her good girl act.
Just when I was about to refuse them resolutely, Elliott intervened and said, “Mr Wyatt, I know you are a very busy person but these siblings need your assistance today as their matter can not wait till tomorrow. If tomorrow they may no longer require your service.”
I knew Elliott was interested in the siblings but to think he would go out of his way to help them, it seems he valued them, not for their background because they should not have enough power in their family considering their age. It must be because he planned and found them worthy of his friendship. And what did he mean by ‘tomorrow they may not require my service’, is it supposed to be a threat or a fact that I don’t know about.
But I wanted to create my second origin card today and finally feel a little secure, being powerless I am on the edge and lash out at the first sight of potential trouble. If you are powerful you won’t care about every dog that barks at you but if you are weak you keep worrying about which one of the barking dogs will finally bare its teeth at you and end up throwing stones at the dogs to make sure they don’t bite and know their place. It’s because I am powerless and feel insecure… I end up going on offence at the first sight of any trouble, which is making it hard for me to get along with people and make friends.
As I was about to ask Elliot what he meant by saying, ‘the siblings may not require my service by tomorrow?’
“I am sorry, this gentleman hurry is…” asked Amy.
“Allow me to introduce my Miss Whiteburn. I am J.K Elliott, a friend of your elder sister Lez.” Elliott introduced himself.
“How dare you call our elder sister with such an endearing name, that’s Eliza Whiteburn for you to call not Liz or Eliza…” shouted Beth, before she could cause any more damage Amy literally closed Beth’s mouth with her hands.
“I am sorry, my sister has not been out of the house much and lacks basic social etiquette. Please forgive her rudeness… ” Amy finally knew the meaning of eastern slang pig teammate and hoped that she had devoured her stupid twin in their mother’s womb.
“It’s okay…” said Elliott, considering they were his friend’s siblings he could not get angry at them for petty things.
“Mr Wyatt, let me explain to you why our brother needs to create his origin card today then it’s up to you whether you help us or not.” Said Amy, I agreed to listen to her reason out of consideration for Corey and Elliott. No matter how much I wanted to create my second origin card I could not flatly refuse these siblings, after all they were recommended by Corey and Elliot.
Eliza Whiteburn the young yet to be the matriarch of the Whiteburn family was conspired against and is stuck in an A-rank dungeon, hearing this news the current patriarch and the father of these siblings Jack Whiteburn hurried to her rescue with his trusted subordinates.
The competition for the head of the family is cutthroat in the Whiteburn family, so much so that Jack’s elder brother was one of the most likely suspects for conspiracy against the future head of the family, Eliza Whiteburn. Due to lack of evidence and not having enough time on his hand Jack could only hurry to rescue his daughter leaving the rest of his children to fend for themselves. He did leave enough subordinates for their protection against any possible assassination or abduction but these subordinates were useless if the ill-intentioned relatives came at them directly using family law.
One of the sibling’s elder cousins haunted Beth, Beth being Beth fell right into their schemes… one thing leads to another and somehow Pax ended up with a life and death challenge with the said elder cousin dated tomorrow. The siblings don’t know which one of them was their cousin’s intended target but now it did not matter as they had to accept the challenge or be disowned by the family.
Unlike other families, the Whiteburn family did not mind infighting, they supported it… They followed the perfect creed of jungle law in their family. To climb to the patriarch of the family Jack himself had to step on the corpses of his cousins similarly Eliza had to step on her generation Whiteburn’s to be considered as the young heir of the Whiteburn family. This wild and untamed nature of the Whiteburn family made them the strongest family of the sky blossom city even though they were less in number.
If it were normal times the sibling would not even consider Wyatt as one of their options as a card creationist to create their brother’s origin card but right now it was a desperate time and they are surrounded by all the sides their every action is being monitored, any card creationist they contacted refused them giving silly excuses. The siblings soon realised that nobody wanted to get involved in the inner conflict of the Whiteburn family.
