What now?

"hah…. It's done, it's finally done"

Said Teresa with a slightly exhausted voice as she stood amidst bloodied corpses. She had finally accomplished her long-time mission with this final kill. The man whose body could no longer be identified in front her was the former right-hand man of her father, the one who pulled the trigger that took his life.

She had finally delivered justice, she had finally accomplished what she desired for three long and chaotic years. She should be satisfied, she should now be at peace, and yet why? Why does she only feel…. Emptiness? Memories of the atrocities she'd done on her journey resurfaced on her mind, although she didn't regret one bit in killing the bastards who took her father from her, the faces of their innocent family and children, friends, and even parents came to mind.

Despite the bloodied floor she kneeled down and clutched her chess., guilt and shame. Those were the only things she could feel at the moment. The emotions were so strong that it felt like it was choking her by the neck, not letting go despite her constant struggle to calm down. Just when she was able to barely stand up the door to the room suddenly burst wide open and dozens of armed men entered.

"You Bitch!! I swear to never let you leave here alive, Kill her now!"

Multiple gun shots were simultaneously heard being fired her way.

Surprised by the sudden barrage of bullets, Teresa was slightly late in reacting and was grazed multiple times.

{Shit, I must escape from this place! I can't take them on unprepared like this, that would be suicide.}

Running for her life, Teresa found an open window and leaped outside, the place she was in currently was in the private mansion of the man which was located in the middle of a forest, hard to find by anyone. He stayed here fearing for his life since he was certain that he was the primary target of the killing spree Teresa was conducting.

Seeing the tall trees on her surroundings Teresa decided to go in deeper to lose her pursuers. After travelling a certain distance, she suddenly stopped on her tracks. She was at the edge of a cliff, with only the ocean and sharp rocks at the bottom. When she was contemplating whether to jump or not she suddenly heard angry shouts getting closer.

"This way! The dogs caught her scent and are saying the she went in this direction!"

"Hurry before she's gone! I will not be able to rest unless I empty my entire magazine on her go*damn face!"

{Fuck! If I'm going to die anyway let's go with the option that will have at least the slightest chance of survival?}

Steeling herself she dived into the water.

After a soft splash only silence remained, the pursuers who were a few seconds late cursed out loud, mad at themselves for missing their target. As for Teresa…

...….

In a quite shore from who knows what country, there lied a bleeding and haggard woman.

After being awakened by the sounds of the waves, Teresa immediately woke up in panic and suddenly assumed what seems to be a battle position. Realizing that she was all alone her emotions calmed down along with the adrenaline. No longer feeling distressed, she suddenly felt numerous sharp pains all over her body.

"Luckily it seems that none of them managed to hit anywhere vital, although the pain is annoying they were only light grazes at most. I even surprise myself with how monstrously strong I now am, but despite all that I am still human at the end of the day huh… Ouch!"

After trying to stand up she felt an unimaginable pain, it seems that the high fall broke her ribs and several other bones in her body. Limping due to the pain she decided to crawl to nearest shade and hide from the sun.

"phew, … It's finally done huh, but now that my heads a little cleared up I'm a little troubled. Fate didn't allow me to die after all but now that my long-time desire is finally done…. What do I do now?"

When she finished carrying out her mission she was littered with blood all over her, so although it was by pure coincidence she managed to hide her true face until the end, as the only ones who knows are now 6 feet underground. This meant that no pursuer will be able to find her as long as she stays moderately hidden, resulting in the possible danger being mitigated.

But despite all that she once again felt emptiness, she no longer had a goal to pursue and no home to return to. All she felt was emptiness inside her, what will she do now? What can she do now? those types of questions flooded her mind, and the only answer she could find was…nothing, she couldn't do anything.

"Hah...hahahahh…. even though I just escaped imminent death here I am unable to find a reason to continue living! What the hell is up with this situation, maybe…... I should just end this once and for all?"

Said Teresa in a monotone voice while looking at a vine dangling from a tree. Having no more reason to live she was thinking of ending her life right then and there, but before she could a sudden rustle suddenly sounded beside her.

"Who is it!"

Shouted the startled Teresa. it could either be a human or a wild animal, either way, with her condition being so there was no way for her to defend herself if they had ill intentions.

{Heh, even though I was convinced on killing myself, here I am desperately clinging to my life when an unknown opponent appears.}

Readying herself for what was to appear, unlike her wildest imaginations a nun was what popped out of the bush.

"What the…."

"…"

The surprised nun stared at her for a few minutes before smugly saying

"It seems that your badly injured, come here and let big sister treat you."

"…"

Teresa was at a loss for words.

{what the hell is this 60-year-old looking hag talking about?}
