Chapter 4
The flames from the car explosion illuminated the area, the sound of something being hit was the only other sound coming from the area, a dead body was visible on the street, and another was still inside the burning car screaming while his body began melting.
I continued hitting Donny, my punches dealt less damage than a teen, but after what I had done to him, I thought these were more than enough to deal with him.
But how did we get here?
.
.
.
The silence and awkwardness in the car could be cut with a knife, Donny sat on my side, his gun very visible and ready to be taken out at the first sign of defiance.
" Where are we heading?"
At my question, Donny smiled once again brushing his gun, but he remained silent, and so did the others present in the car, this was most likely a test, not sure about what, so I remained silent and did nothing but look, look at how the driver tended to drive with only one hand, look at how the one sitting on his right has the knife popping out from his pocket, look at how Donny tends to look at any woman that appears moving his eyes away from me and his gun, I just had to wait.
After another 30 minutes, the chance didn't appear, and we arrived at our destination, an old abandoned warehouse near the sea when the car finally stopped and the music that had been covering the outside world shut down, I heard it, the muffled scream coming from the back of the car.
I immediately realized why we were here, they wanted to have something against me, what's better than having proof of you killing someone? This way I will be forced to work for them for the rest of my life.
We get out of the car, and the one that had been driving till now goes to the back of the car, and few second later a man wearing office clothes and with a bald head comes out of the truck of the car, his hands and legs restrained and his mouth covered with layers of tape.
" We have a test for you," Donny said, his crooked smile becoming similar to the one of a monster in the eyes of the present.
He takes out a knife from his back, a weapon I hadn't seen, luckily I hadn't acted before this moment otherwise I might have got a knife into my back.
" Kill him." He ordered me after putting the knife in my hand, in my gloveless hand, of course, he had gloves.
I stared at the office man, he was crying, and I am sure if didn't have his mouth covered he would be pleading, he would be running away, or at least trying to fight.
His eyes stared at mine to try and find any sign of his survival, but the only thing he got was a deep pit of pure darkness.
I am not a hero, I never was and most likely will never be, I have done things that would make most people quiver in their boots to survive, I have never killed, but I surely caused the death of other people by stealing their food, their money, their clothes, now... I am stealing a life.
With a quick movement, I pierce the man's eye, the knife pierces right through like butter only meeting some resistance after piercing the skull and brain.
The feeling of the meat passing through through the knife and spreading everywhere on my body, I had just taken a life from someone.

I ignored the notification and focused on acting like I had done something I was regretting, it's better to show emotion after killing someone than none, I want to make them think I am weak.

" Perfect, now we will deal with the body, wait in the car."
I followed their order, but I didn't stay put inside the car, I was sure to make the seat of the one on the right closer to me, placed a cloth I had found under one of the seats around my arms under my clothes, and made sure to prepare myself mentally, replaying my actions in my mind a thousand times, the memory of killing someone being overwhelmed by my thirst for revenge.
After 10 minutes they come back and get in the car, the one in the front having blood on their hands, Donny instead remained speckles, not a drop of blood on him.
" Let's get to Mr.Falcone, he would love to meet the new acquisition."
The man in the front started the car and began driving with one hand.
The one on the right felt something wrong with his seat but ignored it and removed his jacket before to could get wet due to the sweat, his life popping from his side while his hands were occupied by the jacket.
Donny was looking at me but we pass through a whorehouse and he moves his eyes to the nearby hookers.
My body sprang into action, using Pickpocketing I took the knife from Donny's back, used it to pierce the driver's neck and used my other hand to make the car go against a wall, immediately going inside the Mirror Dungeon, momentum didn't carry over here, so I was inside the car, but it wasn't going against the wall.

After a few seconds, I went out of the dungeon, making sure to use one of the clothes in my arms to cover my face and hair my eyes the only thing visible.
After going out of the dungeon the first thing I see is the front of the car in flames, slowly creeping towards the back, where Donny is still unconscious with blood coming out of an injury in his head.
The scream of the one I had the knife from filled my ears, but my mind was too focused on something else to even realize I had caused the death of someone by burning him alive.
I reach the car and open the door where Donny is, I use my inventory to store all his weapons and throw him on the ground, making him finally wake up, but before he can do anything I have already taken out his gun, even though I didn't know how to use it, I am sure a point-blank bullet on his stomach couldn't miss.
He began screaming, a gut-wrenching scream, comparable to the one coming from inside the car, which got stopped after I placed the still burning gun inside his mouth.
" Unless you don't want your brain painting the streets you will be answering my questions."

I took out the knife and placed it against his throat while slowly removing the gun from his mouth.
" YOU ARE FUCKING DEAD YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT, I WILL KILL YOU, THE FALCONE FAMILY WILL KILL YOU YOU HEAR ME? I-"
I didn't let him continue, I pierced his shoulder with the knife, and then stored the gun to unless the rage I had been storing to this moment on him.
I never was a fighter but at this moment it didn't matter, Donny was already injured, had a bloody shoulder, and a bleeding stomach, and my punches hurt more than enough to him.
After my knuckles were covered in blood, and his face became a bloody mess, he finally decided to talk.
" PLEASE, I will talk just stop, promise you won't kill me."
" Who gave my father the gun" I said while putting pressure on his wound on the stomach with my foot.
" Mario Falcone, he was trying to get him under him, he needed men at the time, he is the eldest son of Carmine Falcone."
Finally having my target I slowly got up and cracked my neck... and then I took out my gun and shot him in the head, his opened in surprise even after the back of his head exploded like a watermelon.
I store his dagger and then head inside the mirror dungeon, my revenge had just begun.
