Hybrid Daughter

Chapter 22: Prodigy

- Tiberius POV -

Trinity's disappearance has caused me to suffer tremendously by my father's hand...I now have aversion towards her. Not sure if it was because of what my father has said to me about her or the fact that I did suffer beatings so great, I was unconscious for a week.

I was in my bedroom reading a book simply being Frankenstien by Mary Shelley when my father came into the room. He was calm but in his eyes, I saw very well he was utterly infuriated.

"My son, do you have any idea why I am here?" He spoke calmly. It was the calm before the storm. I sat up on the edge of the bed looking at him, unsure what the reason truly is, so I guessed. "Does it have to do with Trinity?" I asked.

My father smirked. "How interesting that you think of her first rather than yourself. You cared for her?" He began pacing the room. I did care for her...after finding out we were twins, I wanted us to remain close.

"I do, we are twins. Are you going to allow us to see each other again?" I asked after placing down the book. "I would have done that...if she didn't decide to leave." He stopped and now stood before me. "What do you mean?" I asked.

A sudden strike to the face with the back of his hand catches me off guard. "She...your beloved twin sister has escaped me...her earned freedom that YOU should have won became her way out. Which tells me she didn't once think of you." His harsh words hissed in my face.

"Now tell me boy, did you purposely let her win to allow her to escape?" I can tell he was suspecting something. "No, as I've said before, her eyes hindered me from attacking her." Another blow to the face tells me that he didn't like that answer. I noticed my bottom lip was now bleeding.

"Don't lie to me. You know what happens when you lie... or do you need to be reminded?" He growled. I looked into his eyes and didn't once blink. "Read my eyes and tell me father...am I lying?" I glared at him. He studied my glare for a moment before speaking. "No, I wouldn't think you would. You've been obedient since you were a child." He said.

"I still am....but my sister needs me...I can track her down and maybe bring-" A third strike to the face. "She does not give a damn about you, boy. She abandoned you, she doesn't want anything to do with-" I had enough of his words and began charging at him.

But he was too fast by grabbing me by my throat. "What have I told you about disobeying me? Clearly you haven't learned." My father growled before throwing me harshly onto the floor. "She's a part of me, I won't believe your lies!" I hissed. My father's eyes glowed their natural red color while his wings and tail came into view.

"As punishment for her escape, you will suffer greatly." He hissed. "I'm not afraid of you.." I glared. My father began to laugh sinisterly. "You will be." Suddenly he began beating me. I tried to fight back but he's somehow remained stronger than I.

My 'punishment' really was a difficult thing to process...Trinity escaped and I got blamed for it.

The next 5 years after that was him mainly focusing on me again. Suddenly, the training resumed and I was fighting against so many male Galileus and Cryptsin again. It was as if my life was back to normal before Trinity arrived here. I was his favorite again.

For every battle I've won, I get taken into a bright white room where I become strapped to a flat operating table. I was sweating from my battles before I got injected with something that I was only told to be a way to "enhance my abilities". The first time this happened, I was not ready for it...

I just finished killing a Galileus. Male of course. Females were kept away from me from now on since I was told they were a distraction from my success.
