10 Not here to save

Lucifer made his way to the Top floor slowly. He checked every room on each floor on his way so it slowed him down.

When he finally reached the stairs of the Top floor, he saw a suited bodyguard standing outside. He flashed a bright smile towards the bodyguard.

....

Orren D'costa

He is a middle aged man who lived a harsh life. He climbed up to this position of power by exploiting the weak. But nobody knew that he was not like this always.

He has a story of his own. Due to that, when he looks at this kidnapped children, he feels...nothing.

He feels nothing when he watches these kids suffering.

He runs this gang of kidnappers for a while now. But he never kidnapped anybody other than kids. Many will change their target after they have gained a certain amount of experience. But Orren was different. Kidnapping children was not only a matter of money to him.

It was a game to him. Just like how people goes to watch a movie when they are bored, Orren kidnaps children when he is bored. He likes it when he sees the scared expression of those kidnapped children.

In a word, he is a sick psycho.

"The breeze feels so itchy..."

"..say you dumbasses, if I stabbed you all now, will you die? " although it sounded like a question it was not a question at all.

Orren was standing in front of a table in the top floor of the building. There were a lot of computer screen in front of him on the table.

The computer screen showed him the footage from the surveillance camera that was installed in the each floor of the building. He saw how Lucifer tortured his underlings and killed them.

He was not pissed though. But he felt a kind of apprehension that he didn't feel in a long time and that feeling irritated him. That's why he scared the children by asking such question. It gave him a sensation of power and control.

"Uuuaaa.."

"Hunng..."

Various types of sobbing sound was heard from the children who was tied up together. There was nine young children. But they were all of different age.

But there was one girl who looked unafraid even in this situation. She seemed way too calm based on the situation.

Something was peculiar about this child.

She was a petite girl who is still growing. Definitely a beauty. When she grows up, she will be even more beautiful. No doubt about that.

"Janet, what do you think? Can we escape alive from here? I don't think the letter reached anyone. " asked a boy.

"I am not sure. If the letter reached anyone, then help will come surely. " replied the girl named Janet.

"I pray that someone finds it and helps us. Otherwise, I am scared to think about my future. " said the boy as he trembled in fear.

At this moment, they heard splashing sound. They saw Orren splashing liquid on the kids.

"Gasoline!!!"

Some of the kids quickly realised the that he was drenching them with gasoline.

"No.. stop it!!"

"Please .. don't "

"Don't kill us.. spare our lives, please!!"

"You can't burn us. That is wrong. Please have some conscience. "

The children all began crying and begging for their life. They were so panicked that their eyes turned red from stress and anxiety, fear of burning to death engulfed their heart.

Only the girl named Janet didn't cry. It didn't look like she had given up. It was more like she knew what will happen. But that didn't excite her.

"Don't worry. You guys are my insurance. "

Saying that he poured even more gasoline on them. He emptied four gallons of gasoline and made all the kidnapped children fully wet.

As he finished, he looked at all the frightened children captured there with a devilish smirk.

"Now, let's see who will save you guy's Now?"

*CRASH*

The sound of the door breaking sounded which almost made them lose their hearing ability.

Sand and dust blew towards everyone and blocked their eyesight for a moment.

They saw a man walk out from the cloud of sand and dust whose get up could be said as the devil in a suit. He looked like a devil in a black suit because he wore black dress top to bottom.

Orren D'costa saw his bodyguard's body twitch for a while as he coughed up blood and then leak blood from all the pores in his face. After a minute, his bodyguard stopped groaning and halted his movement too.

Dead..

He died a painful death. Orren was surprised to see someone so beefed up die so miserably.

"Man, you are so heartless and ruthless. You killed my bodyguard. Why did you do it? You know killing is illegal right?" Orren D'costa said sarcastically.

Lucifer ignored him and concentrated his focus on the children.

Orren didn't like his negligence attitude. He hated the way Lucifer ignored him. He thought Lucifer was looking away to show his disdain towards him.

At this moment, Orren knew Lucifer is strong but so is he. So why is he shivering? Why. Did he feel suppressed whenever he looked in his eyes.

"Luuu-na, Here I am. Were you afraid? "

Lucifer asked in a cute and pretty boy voice. This behaviour stunned the audiences there. His powerful image was destroyed. The children gave him a weird look. One of the kid gathered courage and asked Lucifer to help them.

"Mister, please save us."

"Save us. Mister."

"Did you come to save us. Mister."

Once one guy started, then everyone started to scream for a helping hand.

Orren felt angry by all this development. He started rubbing and scratching his hand with his nails. This was his habit when he is extremely stressed. Like every psycho villains, this gesture along with his ferocious expression made him look like a worst bad guy ever.

But at that moment Lucifer opened his mouth and spoke up in a light tone.

"Sorry kids. But I am not here to save you."
