2 I Need You .....Shadow

It was midnight past two, there was no war, no honking sound of vehicles, no people around, it was a calm and silent place. there was a duplex house, with garden and pool and other things, in that silent place. Lights were turned off, a window on the second floor was wide open. Cool breeze was entering the room through the window, and on a king-sized bed, there lied a beautiful woman, sleeping peacefully in the big, well-designed room.

The peaceful sleep did not last for long, there was a sudden ring from a cell, ringing loud for a long time. She thought it was an important call, so she picked up only to find an unknown number when she picked the call, she heard a man speaking from the other side like a devil,

Suzy:" hello"

Caller:" hahaha....hello Suzy..... oops! , hello shadow "

Suzy was stunned for a moment, but soon she came to her usual self. Her eyes darkened when he called her ' shadow ' Shadow was her underworld name, where none of them were aware of her real name and identity, in fact, shes an underworld queen, whose unknown to the world, works in shades like a shadow.

Suzy:" who are you ?"

Caller:" Haha, why don't you find it out yourself "

Suzy: " I said who are you?"

Caller:" oh okay okay, I' don't think miss shadow is interested in small talks. I'm XU Tao, the head of the Xu organization"

Suzy:" are you the brother of xu yan"

Caller:" miss shadow has quite a good memory " his voice turned vicious and ruthless "yes, I'm his elder brother. I'm, the elder brother of the person whom you killed viciously not very long time ago"

Suddenly she heard a familiar voice from the phone screaming for help, Suzy revolted when she identified Li xiying's voice.

Suzy:" what do you want, why do you have my sister with you "

Caller:" hahaha....nothing, we just want to play with her for some time. Don't worry we won't kill her, it would be too bad to kill her at once" his voice turned vicious the next moment " I'll torture her to an extent where she herself should beg for me to kill her. I want to see you suffer like how I did, only then will my brother rest in peace "

suddenly, a women's loud shriek was heard in the background, screaming for help.

Li xiying:" ah, Suzy .....it hurts.... ah, help, Suzy please help me, I can't stay here any longer, they are hurting me, please come fast...ah"

Suzy instantly recognized the owner of the voice, her eyes turned red and vicious, with a cold and vicious voice she warned him.

Suzy:" you bastard, keep your hands away from her if you don't want to die. Just tell me what do you want "

Caller:" Haha....that's good. I like straightforward people. I need you .....Shadow. If you come here we will let your sister go, ah ....how can I forget that this lady demon is very clever. come alone, with no weapons or else....." tut-tut(end of the call)"

Getting up from her bed hurriedly, without even changing her clothes, she picked her car key and headed towards the garage. She drove her fastest sports car +. Using her mobile, she easily tracked her step sister Li xiyings mobile location and reached the location much earlier. She had already informed Han yifeng on her way, to send some of her people for help. Even though her enemy was no match to her, she did not want to take everything lightly. Since she was about to marry Han yifeng, she disclosed all her secrets including the existence of her group. Once Han yifeng learned the news from Suzy, his greed flared up and he snatched her group away from Suzy.

 It did not take much time for her to reach the location and as soon as she parked her car in a corner that was visible to one's eyes she headed towards the building hurriedly. It was an old building, located towards the east, no house and living were being around for at least half a kilometer. The building was pitch black, covered with darkness. It was more like a haunted house. There was stagnant water on the surface. Looking around carefully, she slowly made her way inside, fully alert. Her eyes were searching for the prey, her ears waiting to hear some sound, her mind analyzing her surroundings and the situation. Suddenly smoke popped from nowhere blurring her vision before she could realize, she lost her consciousness and was lying on the ground like a dead person.

It took an hour for her to regain her consciousness , the place was soo silent , she could hear the sound of water droplets, the wind entering forcefully through the openings .she tried to open her eyes slowly, but closed it , her vision was blurred with no clarity , she tried to close her eyes and open it again and again until her vision was completely clear . She found herself tied to a thick wooden chair tightly with multiple ropes, and then she saw piles of fresh wood and next to them were few thick iron rods ' seems like my enemy knows me very well' she thought. She searched around and found no one there...But then she heard the sound of footsteps which were coming towards her. It seemed at least there were ten-man .the closer they got, the clearer she saw.

There were ten men in black, and a man in the middle, who seemed to be the leader, with muscled chest, wearing a grey outfit. She looked at the man coldly, with no once of fear on her face.

Suzy:" where's my sister "

Xu tao:" ah your sister ....( he turned towards his men's and ordered sarcastically) bring her sister "

After five minutes one of his men brought her sister pulling her harshly like a dog, there were bruises and injuries on her hands and legs, there was also blood dripping from her forehead.

Suzy replied coldly:" let her go"

Xu Tao:" of course we will, we don't go back from our promise, but....not now"

Suzy:" what do you mean"

Xu tao:" Haha, shadow, do you think we are fools, of course, we are not. The whole world knows how you are and how are your skills. If we want you in our hands then we need your sister here .....take her back and lock her up"

Li xiyings:" ah no....leave me, let me go....sis, help me...Suzy, help me .....please take me away from them.... wait, sis, siss....."

As soon as Li xiying was taken away they started to hit her using thick woods, but unfortunately, they did not last for long. After one or two hits they would break into pieces. Loads off wood were now thrown to the corner which were broken into pieces. And then they picked the heavy and thick iron rod, hitting her hard. Blood was dripping from her head, her leg and her hands mixing with the puddle of water beneath forming a pool of blood. They continued hitting her for one whole day and night, they stopped only when she fell unconscious, throughout the process she never cried or screamed, she swallowed everything, how much ever painful it was. Even the leader and the people who hit her were quite amazed by her will, her strength. she surely lived up to her name, even after trying for a long time they could not make her suffer completely. one scream of hers could at least satisfy their ears but too bad, the person, a woman they dealt with was not ordinary, she was like a stone, her bones were strong like iron because of heavy training.

when she fell unconscious, She dreamed of her mother, her grandparents, who were already dead, their eyes filled with love, their sweet voice when they called her name, their gentle and kind attitude towards her, yet she could not save them even after having everything.

she remembered her birth name, the name which her mother gave her " Li Roulan", it kept repeating in her heart, her mother's sweet voice, which she still remembered even after years, the same sweet voice which was a lullaby for her whole life, it kept repeating in her mind. she was remembering her sweet moments which were now the saddest moment.

suddenly her dreams shattered into pieces when she was awoken abruptly.
