Fearless: Unknown Origin

Sitting in front of the large meeting hall suited in the middle of the building having at least a hundred rooms. She faced the door and chairs in sets of two facing each other. The feared Mia Baska sits on her customized wooden chair carved into a lion.

The arm of the chair was carved like that of the limbs of a lion. The chair had two swords placed in the ground in a cross-like manner on both sides. A meter away from the chair were two-step stairs. She sat with her legs crossed and her face covered in a balaclava which only revealed her eyes. She was dark-skinned and elegantly dressed in a turtle neck long blacktop having splits at the side what was at least 30 centimeters long and black leggings.

Her wrist was beautifully decorated with a golden chain bangle.

Her eyes looked serious and whosoever that stepped in will know this as the aura in the room was serious. Mia Baska was always a serious individual who people feared because they hardly saw her smile. No one knew if she smiled or not as she covers her face with a mask all the time.

No one has dared to remove the mask from her face as they fear for their lives. Mia has been known to be straightforward and aggressive when need be. She was a master at fighting skills that whosoever that dares her receives a good beating either by her or her troops.

The double sliding door of the meeting hall opens and a dark, tall and nicely dressed man walks into the building. On the right side of his waist lies a pistol and on the left is a dagger. He walks boldly before Mia and halts a few steps away from her. He bows before Mia.

“He is here and he continues nagging seeking to see you," he said

Mia remained unmoving like a statue. She stared at the man before him and pondered on his words before nodding. The man bowed and headed for the door.

“Liam" a loud but sweet voice called out

Liam halts and turns around. Liam was the closest person to Mia Baska. The entire troops saw him as the second in command after Mia. He was devoted to Mia and he rarely flops Mia's plans or fails to impress her. Mia cherishes him because he reminds her of her brother whom she lost.

“Yes ma," Liam said

“Did he state his intention?" Mia inquired

“No, he only said it was private and only you needed to know his intention" Liam replied

Mia nods and Liam leaves the room. After about five minutes, Liam walked back into the room and a tall, old and fair man walked in behind him dressed in sweat pants and an ash T-shirt.

Liam gestures with his hands for the man to move forward towards Mia while Mia sat watching like she was not breathing. The man did as instructed and moved forward they stopped right in front of the two-step stairs.

Mia and the man stared at themselves before the man glanced at Liam who was standing beside the door with his legs spread and his hands behind his back looking above them.

The man kept on glancing at Liam and eventually Mia complied with his request.

“Liam" she called out

“Yes ma" Liam replied and looked at her

Mia gestured with her hand for him to leave and in no time Liam was out of the room. Mia clicked a mini button underneath the right arm of the chair. The man in front of her was not to be trusted.

Mia placed her elbow on the arm of her chair and her chin on her palm as she adjusted her sitting position staring at the person in front of her.

He was no other person than Louis Baska the ex-CEO of Baska's Industries Limited (BIL) and most importantly the father of Mia Baska. He was always in a suit and had a stern business face but he looked wrinkled and tattered, just the way Mia liked it.

Fifteen years ago, Mia was a troublesome child not on her own accord but due to the family she was brought up in. Every morning the Baska's mansion was always filled with shouting, fighting, and mostly sobs.

Louis Baska was married to Marie Baska a dark and beautiful lady. They both had six children; William, Sophia, Isabella, Lucas, Liam, and Mia, respectively. The Baska's mansion was a war zone for the entire family in which Louis always won.

Each morning he yells at Marie Baska and ends up beating her. Mia and Liam were the only dark child they had and their bond was supernatural. They were both born on the same day but not the same year. Liam was two years older than Mia but they had the same height.

Right from her little days, Louis hated and despised her for reasons he has never stated. Mia and Liam attended the same school while the others attended different schools. Louis would always pick up Liam and leave Mia behind. Liam noticed this and always hid whenever he came around to walk home with Mia.

Mia hated Louis due to all he has done. Once some police officers came over and arrested Marie because of Louis's deeps and when she was released a few days later, he beat her up saying she wanted to cheat on him and that was why she was taken in place of him.

Mia overheard this conversation and her heart boiled in anger. None of Marie's endeavors make meaning to Louis. Each day, their children watch Louis beat Marie. A few days after Mia's ninth birthday, Marie went to the kitchen to prepare food for the family while the others sleep except Mia who refused to take a nap after which she left the house with Mia to the supermarket.

Louis woke up and heard the shower in Marie's bathroom on with the door looked.

He walked into the kitchen took out the gas cylinder and placed it in the middle of the sitting room and poured fuel on the kitchen floor and trailed it around the house. He drove his favorite car out of the compound and threw a matchstick into the house and the house began burning profusely.

Boom!!!
