In moments of pain, we seek revenge.

- Ami Aylon

Vegas doesn’t have enough fucks to give and focused on finding Khun Korn. He will run, shot these men that were blocking his way and hit their head with the pipe to make sure that they’re dead.

His white shirt was soaked with blood, face was tainted with it. The bloods are dripping from the pipe as he throws them to the side.

When his hand started to get numb by holding the pipe, he picked up another weapon to use- an axe.

He swung his hands, hitting them on their neck until the floor was flooded with blood- chopping their head off like a piece of wood. Vegas smirked with the view.

He likes it. He likes the view of people collapsing, holding for their dear life as those crimson red blood flows continuously out of their body.

No one should ever dare to mess with Vegas and to his family.

When the goons are on the floor and no trace of someone approaching, he ran towards the spacious third floor where there are no more boxes, woods and pillars that block the way.

“Welcome.” Khun Korn greeted him as if the old man has been waiting for him.

Vegas can feel his blood boiling that killing Khun Korn with one gunshot isn’t enough for him. He wants to torture Khun Korn until he begged for his dear life. He wanted to see tears coming out from Khun Korn’s eyes or even blood.

Vegas hunger for Khun Korn’s downfall that he wanted this Uncle of his to feel pain. The pain that will not hurt him for one time only but the pain that will kill him slowly.

He thirst for Khun Korn’s misery and wished him all of the suffering to eat him whole.

Vegas grin as he held the axe that he was holding. Khun Korn pointed the gun on his direction. Without any fear, Vegas takes a few steps forward.

“You want to kill me?” Vegas devilishly laugh. “…because you can’t move on with Sol and Eros?”

Vegas just hit the jackpot when Khun Korn’s expression changed from wicked to surprise.

“I think you also deserve losing them."

He saw how Khun Korn gritted his teeth, he tighten the grip on holding his gun and cursed. “Don’t include them there.”

Vegas can only laugh. “You’re a dumbass!”

Vegas held his pocket and showed him the photo Pete stole from Khun Korn’s office. It was the photo taken almost thirty years ago with their names written on it that were assumed to be Sol’s handwriting.

“Give me that!” Khun Korn shot the floor, near Vegas’ foot but he didn’t even flinch.

“Such a happy family.” Vegas mocked followed by a smirk. “Maybe you should follow them.”

“I will make sure that you will follow your father.” Khun Korn simpered and pointed the gun towards Vegas.

Vegas threw the axe on the floor, picked the gun that has been hiding at the side of his waist and fired a gunshot to Khun Korn.

They did it at the same time and both of them collapsed on the floor.

“Fuck.” Vegas cursed when it was his leg that was aimed by the bullet.

Khun Korn’s shoulder was bleeding but still managed to pick up the gun.

Vegas breathed heavily, tries to reach for his gun and make sure that he will still be holding the photo.

He stare to Khun Korn, still sitting on the cold floor, he raised his hand that was holding the photo.

“The last memory you have with them will be gone.”

In front of Khun Korn, Vegas tore the photo into smaller pieces. The photo Khun Korn has kept, the most important memory he had with Sol and Eros were destroyed by Vegas himself.

“What the fuck did you do?!”

“Just destroying the last memory you have with them.” He simply replied.

Vegas noticed that several men enter the place, backing up Khun Korn and trying to corner him.

“Let us see if you can still fight with your legs bleeding.”

Khun Korn takes a step backward, letting Vegas fight physically to the men who just arrived. Vegas picked up his gun and shot them.

Shit. He doesn’t have any bullets left. Vegas used his gun to hit them on their head as he ignored that fact that his legs are still bleeding with a bullet stuck in it.

Vegas fell on the floor once again. Two men just went near, punching him on his face and abdomen as the other guy hit his back with a baseball bat.

His vision is getting blurry as he spit blood from his mouth.

“I will…meet Pete…after this.” He whispered and blocked the attack.

Vegas takes his chance to give himself a chance to breath.

No. He will not allow himself to die in here. Someone is waiting for him. Pete is waiting for him.

Khun Korn should die and not him.

He picked up the axe and smirk.

Pain… is his home.

Vegas- the person who was born to fight and do everything to survive just awaken. Now, he finally has the reason to live.

Vegas avoided the attack, dodge himself and makes sure that the axe will hit the other guy. Damn. The guy’s head roll on the floor and was detached on its own body.

He can already feel the fatigue, his legs are getting numb and with his face filled with bruises, Vegas is aware that he will not last long.

After catching his breath, he didn’t stop attacking and trying his best to avoid further injuries. He knew that one more hit, his body will definitely collapsed.

When he’s done fighting almost ten men, he sat on the floor and holds his leg that was bleeding nonstop. He took of his white shirt that was tainted with blood leaving him half naked. He used the cloth to cover the wound first.

Khun Korn laughed. “Your stamina is great.” He praised him.

Vegas looked up and met Khun Korn’s eyes. It was like meeting a heartless devil getting excited with his most awaited vengeance.

Khun Korn pointed his gun on his head and spoke. “Say goodbye.”

“Phi Vegas!”

Both of their attention shifted to the arrival of someone.

“Macau!” Vegas pushed himself to stand up when he saw Macau running to his direction.

“Ow a visitor.”

“Why are you here? I told you to run away!” Vegas lost his sanity when his younger brother appears. “”I told you to leave! Why are you here?!” He growled in so much anger.

Nop who’s with Macau appears as he is fighting to Khun Korn’s men.

“I’m sorry, Khun Vegas!” He apologized and kicked the guy he is fighting. “Khun Macau insisted to follow you! He escaped from the car, rides a taxi and follows you! I have no choice but to do the same thing.” Nop exclaimed.

“Why are you so stubborn Macau?!”

Vegas stares at Khun Korn who just smiled with the arrival of Macau.

Vegas held his brother’s hand, making sure that he will stay behind him.

“Phi Vegas.”

He takes a look at Macau who just smiled at him. Macau hugged Vegas and caresses his older brother’s back.

“After this…” Macau whispered. “You should eat ice cream with Phi Pete.”

“What the fuck are you saying?!”

Macau let’s go of the hug and gave an assuring smile to Vegas.

“Please print our first family photo, display it to the mansion.” He said. “You should look after Venice and stay with Phi Pete forever.”

“Nop! Take him away from here!”

Vegas ordered but Nop was being cornered by a group of bodyguards.

Vegas closed his eyes and cough. Blood came out from his mouth that the taste of iron just disgusts him. He is also feeling dizzy too.

“I only have one bullet left.” Khun Korn interrupted. “Who among you will receive it?”

Vegas’ hand that is holding Macau was removed by Macau itself. The young son of the Minor Family calmly went to Khun Korn’s direction.

“Macau! Come back!” Vegas said as he can hear somehow an air in his ear.

His eyes are starting to hurt so much and he can no longer stand for too long because of the wound on his legs.

Vegas tried to approach his brother, taking small steps. Vegas saw Macau hugging Khun Korn.

What is he doing?

Khun Korn remains steady as his nephew hugs him.

“I’m sorry…” Macau apologized. “I’m sorry for what my father did to Khun Sol and Eros.”

His voice was trembling but still managed to stand there, hugging Khun Korn tightly.

“But please spare my brother.” He selflessly requested. “Let him have a family.”

The two of them were motionless as Macau continues to speak.

“We are the reason why Phi Pete left the Main Family. I am sorry.”

Macau keeps apologizing for what the older people did.

He rested his head on Khun Korn’s shoulder as if he is seeking comfort for a father’s hug one last time.

“I have heard about Khun Sol and Eros’ death.”

That night, when Khun Sun has been telling the story to Pete and Vegas, he was there. Mark let him eavesdrop about the story.

He thinks of it thoroughly, thinking of which side to blame with their current situation.

He knew that Khun Korn should be punished for using people for his revenge and his desire to kill them in exchange for the life taken away from him. Macau also thinks that their side has something to pay too.

That single prank his father did just make Khun Korn lost the two most important people in his life that he had to carry the burden until now.

“Please let my brother live.” He begged.

Macau let go of the hug and not even a meter apart, he stare at Khun Korn.

For a second, Khun Korn saw Kan in Macau’s face. He resembles his father that he can see his younger brothers face.

“Macau! Leave and let me deal with it.”

Macau didn’t even bother to listen.

He gently held Khun Korn’s hand that was holding the gun, guides the old Khun’s hand to aim the gun on his heart.

“My father’s life is equal to Khun Sol’s life.” He said and with Khun Korn’s thumb holding the trigger, he held it also as if he is guiding Khun Korn on how to shoot him.

Macau went near as the gun on his chest buried a little deeper.

The young Macau, the second son of the Minor Family who only wanted to live like a normal teenager is now here, risking his life to save his brother.

“Macau!” Limping Vegas went to Macau, trying to reach for his brother.

With determination, no single trace of fear in his eyes, Macau looked at Khun Korn.

“There is only one bullet here, right?” He asked. “I will take it.”

Khun Korn stared at Macau, still with his stone cold face. “What?”

“My father’s life is equal to Khun Sol’s life.” He repeated. “I will be the one to pay for Eros’ life.”

“Macau! Damn it!”

Macau closed his eyes. “I’ll pay for my father’s sins and let my brother live.”

Macau just guided Khun Korn’s thumb to pull the trigger.

A loud gunshot was heard, Macau immediately feel on the floor with his chest bleeding.

Vegas screamed loudly until it echoes. He proceeds to go on his brother, trying his best to revive him.

Before Pete came to his life, Macau was the reason why Vegas managed to live in this kind of hell. He was his sanity before everyone else.

“Open your eyes.” Vegas’ hands are trembling as if tries to touch the bloody body of Macau.

Khun Korn can only stand, staring at the view of two brothers- one was saved and the other sacrificed his life.

Vegas went closer to Macau’s ear to whisper something. “We will buy ice cream, just…just come back.”

Vegas couldn’t help but let the tears flow, hugged the cold body of his brother and scream in so much pain.

He can no longer feel the wounds in his body. He just can’t think properly now and everything feels numb.

He keeps convincing himself that Macau is probably sleeping because of shock but he cannot lie.

Macau is no longer breathing and finally left his brother’s side.
