Limitless The Strongest Revenant

"Tell me how and when. Liv, you go first," Ma ordered.

"Ma, I am from the land you call Antarctica, I died by a spear through the heart. It was in a battle royale to select warriors 9 years ago."

Lilly went next. "Ma, I am kind of a bastard princess for North America. My wrist was slit by my foster grandmother five years ago."

"Ma, I drank poison to end my life last June. I did it because I found out that my only brother died of a disease," Aki added. Read exclusive adventures at мѵʟ

Jo continued, " Ma, I was hanged by my family in June. M-My family came from a long line of knights who fought in Hellsgate."

"I was hanged next to Jo as her maid. While I was her servant, I also came from a line of Reaper warriors," Jas followed.

Bella then told her story. "I died trying to save my aunt from the bad guys. I was kind of blown up. It was just last June. My aunt is still safe and with Aki's brother."

Since I was the only one who had not yet spoken, I tried to tell my new family how I died.

"I was killed by terrorists. I, uh, worked for them as long as I could remember. When I thought I could leave that kind of life behind, they shot me through the heart. It was also in June, I think?" I explained.

When Ma heard our answers, she began to cry.

"My poor daughters. I am so sorry you had to go through all that."

Overwhelmed with emotion, she threw herself at us, hugging each of the Sirens as she sobbed pitifully. Alana and Bless did the same. It felt strange to see something like that.

It made me happy that she felt that way, but it was kind of useless, wasn't it? They were hurt by the way we died? Was this what families were supposed to do?

"Girls, I don't know what this reaper business is, but I promise you one thing. I will always be in your corner. Don't worry, I believe in all of you. Just like Dipshit, we are family. And family sticks together."

Unconsciously, I started to cry like an ankle biter. Looking around, everyone else was too.

"I want to know what will happen tonight. Who is Dipshit fighting and why are you all covered in blood?"

The girls then spent some time answering our family's questions. Even though we tried not to tell the whole truth, it eventually came out.

"Okay, so Aki, Jo, Jas and Liv are descendants. Lilly is a half Descendant, while Bella and Robyn are first generation Reapers?" Ma asked in confirmation.

"Yes." x7

"And Aki tried to kill John the day we met?" Alana asked in a sullen mood.

"Yes. I'm sorry, everyone."

"And you girls have been guarding us ever since?" Pa followed up.

"Yes." x7

Bless frowned as she asked. "Everyone fights later too?"

"Yes." x7

"And you all just spent the last five hours hunting these so-called phantom reinforcements?" asked Ma coldly.

"Yes." X7

The sudden silence made me feel cramped. I had never experienced this before. When I was with the terrorists, everything was much simpler. You were beaten if you did something wrong. If you didn't get beaten, it meant you did something right.

Ma pinched the bridge of her nose as she closed her eyes. Bless handed her a glass of water, which she drank in one gulp.

"Thank you, Bless. Now, for the rest of you, I only have one thing to say."

'Here it comes. Would they tell me to do the Harry? Can I still be with Possum if Ma doesn't accept me?'

While I was thinking bad things, I felt Ma pull me into a group hug.

"My precious daughters, you did very well. I am so proud of you."

"Huh?" it was like my brain froze. Ma was — Proud?

It wasn't just me, even the smart ones went stupid.

Probably seeing our reaction, Ma gave each of us a kiss on the forehead as she praised us warmly.

"Listen, girls, anyone in your position would have kicked the bucket by now. Living is ten times harder than dying. And after everything that happened, you all fought as hard as you could.

"I don't know what your real parents would think, but I for one am so proud of each and every one of you."

Dad smiled goofily as she added.

"I feel the same way. Well done."

"But Ma, Pa. We killed a lot of people, aren't you afraid of us?" I asked confused.

Then Noelle came over and wrapped her arms around me. The warmth of her body made me feel very comfy.

"Robyn. Remember one thing. It is impossible to please everyone in this life. No matter what you do, someone will talk smack about it. So instead of living for someone else. Remember to protect what is most important to you.

No one else will do it for you."

She smiled lovingly as she stroked my cheek.

"You did all this to protect your man, right?"

"Un," I nodded.

"Then if you did nothing and they killed Dipshit, how would you feel?"

"I would probably kill myself if Possum was no longer around."

Ma then pulled both of my cheeks and stretched them out.

"Don't talk like that when I'm here, do I make myself clear?"

"Y-yes. It hu-rrts M-a!"

Ma relaxed her grip and hugged me again.

"Robyn, this life is yours. Nobody can tell you how to live it. People may offer advice, but in the end, you are still the one who chooses. Decide what you live for and protect it with all your heart. Do you understand?"

I nodded as Noelle smiled happily.

"That goes for all of you. Choose what you value and protect it. If you make a mistake or need help, we, your family, will be here to set you straight. So don't worry so much and just — live."

"MA!" x7

Feeling like I had fallen in love with my mother-in-law, I buried myself in her huge chest. She was so fucking cool. The coolest Sheila ever born! Funnily enough, the other Sirens did the same.

"US TOO!"

"UN!"

As we rolled around in laughter, Alana and Bless joined in. Pa looked at us with a goofy smile on his face.

There was a knock at the door and a familiar voice.

"My ladies, this is your servant, Aisha. Squad Commander Joshua wanted me to inform you. There are only three minutes left before the Sirens can join the Seeker war."

Pa stood up quickly and opened the door, revealing one of Vela's wolves. I didn't bother to remember their names, so I just called this one 'glasses'.

Bella stood up quickly and asked impatiently.

"How many Reapers does the Savior have left?"

"As of the current live stream, Patron has terminated the first three waves. That makes a total of 150 Reapers. 5 of which were Phantoms. But since the live stream is delayed, the number could be even higher."

The Sirens helped everyone up and we made our way down to the living room. The members of the 2nd Amendment were watching the live stream on the TV.

Noelle quickly hugged us all one by one without saying anything. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she remained firm and strong. She then bowed as she pleaded.

"My wonderful daughters. I know I am being selfish. But please protect my son. I already lost him once. I cannot lose him again."

Faster than anyone could, I moved and tenderly embraced my mother-in-law.

"You don't have to ask Ma. Family sticks together. We will bring him back. After all, he is the one I live for."

Noelle continued to sob as Pa took her in his arms. After saying goodbye, the Sirens and I left for Hellsgate.
