Chapter 169 - Black Unknown

In an unknown island, Liam and Riley landed there, the ocean river carrying waves to the sand, making it mushy, Riley's bare feet march on it.

"Ugh worse honeymoon ever" Riley growled pissed trying to walk her way through the sand.

"Babe, slow down" Liam called from behind.

"Oh great on our way to our romantic getaway for a month to an unknown trip my husband prepared, only to get interrupted by a sick teen killer, who we thought was dead for years only to be back and found his way into our private flight and ruin everything" she rants while throwing a fit.

"Babe!" Liam called once again.

She turned to him.

"Liam when are we gonna have a normal life for once" she began.

Making Liam halt his step..

"I mean from one enemy to another, if its not the world hunting us, its a sadistic killer kid or my crazy uncle or those close to us" she said.

Liam sighs.

"When will it stop Liam... I'm" she sighed.

"I'm tired Liam, this marriage was suppose to be a next step for us... i mean we are gonna create a family won't we" she said sad.

Liam walks up to, rubbing her shoulders gently, Riley leaned into his touch.

"Yes we will, nothing will stop that I promise" he assured her.

"But the hunt won't stop... unlocking our powers simply just called all threats at us like a beacon, it was just like Silver said... Liam, more will come" she said.

"And we will fight them off, every last one of them, none of them are gonna stop us form moving forward or starting a family" he assured.

A small smile found her lips, on hearing his soft gentle words.

"So" she began trying to lighten the mood.

"Where were we going for our honeymoon?"she asked sneaky.

Liam sighed in defeat.

"Bali" 

Riley gasps.

"Seriously Bali? I have always wanted to go there" she squealed as her face lit up but then it sadden.

"But then the sadistic kid went ahead and ruin it. They were humanoid ghouls both of them" she said.

"I only saw Seth" Liam said puzzled but he was sure another was in the plane.

"Well I saw another sadistic Teen, her powers were unique, her tentacles could literally drain someone's life force, if it was an ordinary ghoul they would have been a goner" she states.

"Now we have two humanoid ghouls after us" Liam said not liking the idea.

"And my hunch is, Vincent Jones is controlling them, he's most certainly is the one behind this, the hunt is over but this is his method now," Riley said biting her bottom lip.

"As much as it pains me to say this we have to go back, no more Bali no more honeymoon, Liam we have to find out what he's up to, now we know he's coming after us".

"Babe" Liam began.

"Please let's go back" she said in a heavy breath, as much as she hated to say this, now they knew what they were up against, they couldn't just go an island for a month and pretend that nothing happened, they had to face the threat before they get them with their tactics, they have faced Barbra Jones, they both knew what she was capable of, most likely her brother was even more dangerous... and much worse Seth Judson was back to life, that kid was a nightmare, a tyrant equal to Barbra in manipulating and coming up with deadly tactics to out run them.

Liam's eyes sadden at her words, he had a hunch she would say that, could they ever have a normal life?

Riley looks away turning, the cold breeze blew as she rubbed her arms together shivering slightly, her heart ache deciding this but they had no choice, they can't turn a blind eye to this.

"We have to go back" she adds, her tone laced with seriousness.

Unknown Facilty

Seth barged into the office, Jade beside him trying to keep up, with Seth's menacing steps.

"The door is for knocking" Vincent states facing them, a stack of files on his hand as he went through them not bothering to spare them a glance.

"We have to go back to New York" Seth hissed.

Vincent gaze lands on a pissrd Seth.

"I guess the plan didn't go well" he comments certainly.

"Liam is stronger, stronger than I have fought before" Seth said with clenched fist, his power, he felt it, it was more dominating and wild almost like he faced a god.

"Well you have been in a coma for three and the half years, it's only neutral your opponent did a few upgrades... yes I enhanced you... enough if I might add, but the rest of your power is up to you" Vincent states in a simple tone.

"Then we have to go to New York so that I can finish what i started " Seth hissed in rage, he hated it, he despise it, Liam O'Brien his greatest enemy was stronger than him.

"Even if we get there, there's no chance of finding their location" Jade spoke up with a strong voice.

"They are well hidden, they spared no room for mistakes" she reasons, facing Seth.

"You may be an expert during your time... you may be called the Ghoul Killer, but this time they are hidden off the radar, not even you can locate them".

Seth growled facing her, her words made his skin crawl, he wondered why he was partnered up with this girl.

"That's enough you two!" Vincent hissed.

Their attention drift to them.

"Jade is right Seth, we can't locate them, they are off the grib, but we can draw them out" he states.

"What do you have in mind?!" Seth asked.

Vincent smirks mischievously.

"Believe me I have plenty" he states boldly.

"But you will follow my every order for this to work" he adds sternly, leaving no room for questions.
