Brandon opened the door to his room. With a swift sound, the door slid open.

Brandon took a step apart and offered others to enter his room first. Naomi was the first one to enter the room.

'Why does your room smells like Tobacco?' Devon glanced at Brandon before entering the room.

'Shit. will Naomi be able to smell it?' Brandon asked.

'Nah. But Ryan will.'

Brandon stepped inside, closed the door. Ryan had turned on the lights of the room already. The room was as tidy as it could be. The bed was clean, with no bag all over the room.

Because everything was inside Brandon's cube. Everything, literally everything was scattered inside the cube. Only if someone could go inside the cube and take a look.

Ryan went ahead, pulled the same chair he was sitting on before. Devon and Brandon walked up to the bed. Naomi took a chair and sat on it, beside Ryan. 

She found it strange to see Devon sitting on the bed besides Brandon. Brandon asked Devon to be cautious around Naomi. They do not want to expose their relationship to Naomi. 

Devon got up from the bed and went near the table. He started looking out of the window. He then started wandering around the room.

"So. I was thrown to Aceved. It is a planet that is very, very cold and inhabited." Devon started. 

'Oh fuck. I fucked up.' He sighed, 'How did I survive if the planet was very, very cold?!'

"How were you able to survive then?" Just the question Devon did not want Naomi to ask.

'Why does this girl hit the right spot for everything?' He looked at Naomi. 

"Do you believe in luck?"

"Maybe," she lifted up her shoulders and dropped them down.

"Then you would not believe how I survived. Let us move on…" Devon did not let Naomi have a chance to speak further, "I was randomly walking around the inhabited planet which had a temperature same as Antarctica."

'Now there is no running back. I got to make Aceved cold in Naomi's thoughts.' 

"There were no humans on the planet. There were some beasts, I did not see any but I know because I heard something or someone around the planet."

"How were the planet's conditions? Did it have gravity and oxygen on it?" Naomi asked with curiosity. 

"Gravity, yes. Oxygen, yes but in very less amount. I had trouble breathing there. Mainly because the temperature was over minus 30 degrees on the planet." Devon lied again.

"I can not believe you survived- wait, what happened to your clothes?"

"I changed them as soon as I reached Tokyo."

"And how was that possible?" Naomi continued asking.

'Oh come on, let him off the hook already.' Brandon and Ryan both had the same wish.

"Yep, I will tell. So, I was walking, walking, walking till I saw a cave." 

"A beast's cave?" Naomi looked at Devon with her big oval eyes. 

"I guess. There was no one inside but… it was extremely hot inside."

"Hot?" She frowned, "How is that possible?"

"I do not know. I was just glad that I can feel the warmth. I walked deeper into the dark cave. I kept walking even further."

"Were there any mysterious things in the cave? Of course, there were right?"

"I did not see any. There was some strange smell in the cave but before I could discover anything, I was pushed through something."

"what?"

"A black hole maybe. Or maybe a portal. But who would and why would there be a portal on the Aceved planet?" Devon questioned, "It must have been a black hole ."

"You should not be alive then if it was a black hole ."

"Then what was it? Cause I am standing right here in front of you. I am alive, I am perfectly fine. And somehow I managed to teleport from that planet to this planet."

"Uhm…." Naomi started thinking, "I can not buy that yet…" she turned her head to Ryan, "What do you think Ryan?"

"Ah, uh, right. I can not find any other reasoning for what must have happened with Devon. So I believe what Devon is telling. I believe everything but I think instead of a black hole, it must have been a portal."

"Sir Brandon?" Devon asked Brandon himself.

"Hm… planet Aceved… well," Brandon got up from his bed, "It is not like this planet has not been discovered by any other race in the universe." 

"Other races in the sense?" 

"Aliens. Yes, they do exist." Brandon cut Naomi off in middle, "That portal set there… it must have been their way of transporting things to that planet. Maybe some other race is trying to make Aceved their habitat."

"But what race would?! It is as cold as Antarctica there! How could even a beast survive there!"

"You might not know, Naomi but…" Ryan started, "There are species that survive only in cold weather. To be precise, only in cold weather below Antarctica's temperature."

"They do?"

"They must. There must be at least one single species in the universe that can survive on Aceved."

"Why do they have their portal on Earth then….?" Naomi started thinking again.

"Who knows if they have portals to other planets too? Earth just might be one of the planets they export and import their stuff from?" Brandon said.

"Yeah," Ryan added.

"You never know, you do not know, and you will never understand the mystery of the multiverse or simply universe. So do not try to go deep in those things."

"Exactly!" Ryan got up from the chair, "Let us sleep." totally changing the topic drastically. 

"Together?!" Naomi got up from her chair.

Devon clenched his fists in pressure. He could barely make himself hear it. Brandon was about to laugh off at them.

"Yeah, sure." Ryan rolled his eyes sarcastically, walking towards the door.

"Tch, you got my hopes up." Naomi turned around, "Later, Devon. Good night sir Brandon."

"Yeah."

"Good night, Naomi…" Devon replied. 

Ryan pulled the door closed but did not close it fully. He left the door slightly open, only slightly. Slight enough for a thin paper to pass through.

He walked with Naomi to their rooms. He pretended to enter his room but as soon as Naomi went inside her room, Ryan took off running towards Brandon's room. 

"Say, are you going to tell Ryan everything as it is?" Brandon's question stopped Devon from leaving the room, "Will you tell him everything about Aceved, Mr. Grant, your father, your mother, your brother… step-brother."

"Why, yes. He killed Stanley after all. He is already deep into this shit, Brandon. He can not exit from this vampire business he has pulled himself into."

"So you will?"

"I will when he asks. For now, I just want to take this blood…" Devon pulled the five flasks from his pockets, "Here, one for you." he stretched his hand in front of Brandon's face.

Brandon accepted the flask and looked up at Devon, "He is coming back. Stay here."

He told Devon. He started opening the bottle in his hands, 'Wait… this flask.'

"Man! These are advanced-level flasks!"

"I reacted in the same way." Devon replied normally, "Do not worry. I know what I am doing and so does dad." 

Knock, knock.

"Ryan here!" the door pushed open and Ryan stepped inside the room, still gasping for air.

"How did you….?" Devon glanced back and forth at Brandon.

"Tell- tell me, me, everything." Ryan was breathing heavily. 

Devon pulled Ryan inside the room. Made him sit next to him and told him everything that happened on Aceved. Everything. 

Ryan nodded, "So we humans can not survive on Aceved?" Ryan asked.

Brandon and Devon shook their heads, "No. They can not." Devon replied. 

"And your mother…" Ryan looked down, "Grace huh…" He took her name, "Do you mind telling me your mother's maiden name? That might help."

Devon turned to Brandon for help, he twisted his head in Brandon's direction, "Please…"

Brandon let out a sigh as he stepped forward, "Wood. Grace Wood… ma'am."

Ryan nodded, then looked at Brandon when he added ma'am.

"Do you know her, sir?"

"I do not. If I had, I would have brought her here. Or took Devon to her. If you are asking this because I used honorific then… just know that I respect her a lot."

Ryan continued nodding, "Alright then. Tomorrow." Ryan got up and started walking towards the room.

"Tomorrow's re-opening…" Brandon muttered, "I wonder what changes they made and… what awaits us."
