"Here, I am giving this to you." Red said as she handed Michael a thin red cloth.

"No, I can't talk something that is yours."

"You are not here beside me anymore. I wanted to give a piece of me."

"Okay."

***

"Mother..." Michael suddenly wakes up in his desk with the red cloth on him, "that jerk...why would he give it back to me."

Michael gets up and walks towards the kitchen to see Vincent sleeping on top of the island counter. He looks at the pot behind him and noticed it is shrimp pasta. It reminded of Red's cooking.

***

"Mother," Austin said, "I don't want anymore of this stuff. I want something else."

"A picky eater aren't you."

"But I want to try something new," Michael said.

Red made a smile, "okay...you guys have to help me on this."

Michael and Austin helped Red to make something different that are not used to eat. Putting flat noodles in boiling water while shrimp and shallops where cooking on other stoves. By the time it is finished, Red squeezes a lemon onto it and prepare meals for the brothers.

"Here you go, it's your father's dish, seafood spagetti."

Red watches Michael and Austin as their face lit up in surprise and started to eat it.

***

"Vincent..."

"Oh hey Michael, if you're hungry there is pasta in there..."

Michael noticed that he is yawning, "you must be hit by a sleeping spell. Have you met..." Vincent fell back asleep. Michael puts on the red cloth that is shaped like a jellyfish. Michael turns him on his side and noticed all the darkness has shead away, "okay, he's alright now. Baby brother must have done this for him. I thought that I was going to do it. At least Vincent made grandfather's dish. I'm kinda sick of curry all the time."

Michael looks in the pot and it looks all the same. He heat it up with his own fire powers and place the pasta on a bowl. He went to get a placemat and coaster from the drawer and set it on the island counter and ate right across from Vincent. His first bite with the noddles, Michael notices it is the same dish from Red passed down from grandfather. Although, it tastes a lot better from Red's cooking. It's been perfected. He looks at Vincent sleeping there.

"So you take care of Vincent, big brother?"

"Austin, what did you do?"

"I healed his darkness for now," Austin said, "you know, you should take care of him more."

"That is not my choice."

"Brother, listen to me."

"What?"

"Vincent is just like the same as Red. Darkness. It consumes them both but Red's is more uncontrollable while Vincent can. I fear for Vincent's future if his darkness becomes like hers."

"Vincent is not someone who you to care about. He is responsible for everything."

"If you hate him, why haven't you killed him yet?"

"I got tired of hating Vincent for now. I still deeply hate him."

"Hmm, I see. You know, Vincent is faking his true powers."

"What do you mean?"

"He goes light on you but whenever he is fighting me, he always wins."

"Why would he do that? Doesn't that kill him?"

"I'm little light on Vincent too. He knows that he gets himself in a serious state. I always have to heal him. I can't kill a man unless I give it my all."

"But you didn't."

"Hey, Vincent always gets me off guard."

"That is not the point here baby brother." Michael said, "Vincent, wanted to go light on me because I'm not that very skilled."

"Then prove it to me."

"Fine, I'll do it."

Michael and Austin went outside of Green's house and decided to be a few feet in front of him. Austin looks at Michael, "I won't go easy on you."

"Neither will I."

"Let's go!" Austin pulls back and jumps back from Michael. Michael didn't know what was going on. Austin is too fast to see. Austin comes into Michael's view but he is too late to react in time. He felt Austin's kick into his body. He felt back as he see Austin far away.

"How did you?"

"Hmm, weak...I thought you are better than this!" Austin took out his blue and green flames and about to directly shoot at Michael.

"Enough!" Austin shot his flames to Michael but instead, Vincent blocked it and protect Michael. The surrounding energy become cold. Austin notices that his flames turned into ice around Vincent and Michael. Vincent looks at Austin, "how could you! You're going to destroy him."

Austin looks at Vincent's brown eyes, "you're wearing your limiters again, aren't you?"

"Why you ask?"

"I know that you're hiding something away. Something from our family. You know where Red is don't you? What is your relationship with her? How did you make her like a human like you?"

"I cannot answer that for you, Austin. My past with her is my secret. If you want to know, I promise you that she will come here and explain it all."

***

"Please stay here, Michael!" Red said, "grandfather will be here soon."

"We been here for billions of years, Red. Just accept that he is not going to come here."

"Please stay with me."

"Lies."

***

"Lies..." Austin said.

Vincent becomes shock to what Austin said to him. A reaction that comes close to his heart. Michael looks at Vincent and remembers the time he left, Red. "No, stop this brother! You're rejecting Red. Just like I rejected her."

"Vincent is not her."

"He is our new guardian, Austin. Can't you not see, if you...Red's condition would..."

Michael and Austin suddenly felt a disturance in the air. It felt like Red. "Just stay with us, stay with your brother for the time."

"No..." Austin fades away into a blue and green fire.
