Massacre

"Suffer! Suffer for your atrocities! ", she screamed. Her screamed echoed throughout the place. It teared through the night sky while dispersing its terrors around the environs of the dark alleyway. Her silhouette had shifted into that of an ungodly creature each time she had burst into laughter. She was being inhuman and devilish at the moment and there was no one to stop her.

After some hours of nonstop embarrassment and ridicule, she had allowed the figure to go back. She told them that she wanted to speak to them while their heads were on the ground. They were told if any of them raises their head it would be an act of war between themselves and the Higarashi family. Fear had taken over their bodies at that moment. All they wanted to do was comply to her inhuman commands. Disobedience could not be helped.

"Now let's talk about the business! ", she said with enthusiasm while placing her hands in her pockets. "Yes ma'am " , one of them replied instantly. The lady sat down on the chair she was ushered and business was ready to take place. "I want you guys to assassinate someone for me. I don't need any excuses from you all you have to do is to comply. If you desire payment, don't feel shy to come to the Higarashi family for it", she had said this with a straight face.

Even though the figures couldn't see her face when she had said those words, they felt the killing intent in them. "Was this girl even a teenager? How can such a child contain this much urge to kill someone?", they asked themselves.

"Won't you speak, you morons. I'm going to pay good money for this!", she shouted in frustration. "We accept the job but there is one problem. We will have to know the type of person you want to assassinate. If the person is above our level then killing he/she is going to a problem", one complained.

"Wrong move, I told you not to complain!", she shouted while stomping the guy's head onto the ground. Those around the person when this had happened could have sworn that they didn't see her hit him. All they could notice was some unnatural movements of shadows and then their friend had his head slammed onto the ground.

Trying to save their friend could cause them their lives and they weren't going to give their lives away like that. "Please we are sorry, we will accept to complete this assassination without any payment ", one of them had said in a worried tone.

"Good, good! Now where was I?", she replied with enthusiasm. "You were at the part where the name of the target is mentioned!"."Yeah that place!"."Definitely!", they shouted one after the other in a frightened manner.

"Yeah, about that. The target is someone very popular and if you're able to complete this assassination, you will be known worldwide for your accomplishment", she said with a straight face. This time she didn't look like she was playing around.

"Who is it, ma'am?".

The question came out after some minutes of awkward silence. They were sure this person was going to be a strong pillar of society but now their interest had piqued when she had said it herself. "It's Selena Blaze", she had finally disclosed the target's name to them.

Huh!

"The Selena Blaze of the Blaze faction?", they asked in a new found frightened way. The Higarashi family was a troublesome family to deal with but the main branch of the Blaze faction's family system was on a whole new level. They just couldn't believe their ears when the name had popped up in their brains through them.

This type of mission was one they weren't suited for. Killing someone of that high caliber was above their standards and strength. Suicide was the first word that had popped up in their brains when they had heard the target's name. "Do you hate us this much?", one of them had said while rising up from the ground. "I have tolerated your insolence for far too long. How can you lead us to our deaths like that? Are you that crazy? Why don't you ask your family leader to kill her for you?", the guy asked out of sheer bitterness.

He felt the girl was just making fun of them just because they had bowed down to her. Her request was crooked just like her attitude. What kind of human being send people to meet their deaths. "You may be from the Higarashi family but remember that you are under the Blaze faction. Get this into that thick skull of yours. We are also evolved persons and we deserve some respect ", he said. Within an instant his fingernails were being covered by an unknown liquid.

"Brothers, we don't have to bow to this over pampered brat. We are men and we decide what we want to and who we want to work with...", before he could end his words his throat had been slit open. Even though the distance between the two was that of a stone thrown, it wasn't that easy to launch an attack with precision of that degree.

The guy held his neck as blood gushed out of the fresh wound. He hadn't expected such a swift attack from the girl. What more could a girl do on her own he had wondered but all those thoughts had been proved wrong. "Did she use a knife? Where did she get it from?", he asked himself.

In an attempt to speak, he had tried to open his mouth but blood escaped out of it instead. He fell on the ground several seconds later when all his attempt to sustain his life had proved futile.

The others had witnessed what had happened to their friend and they weren't going to reason with the girl anymore. All they wanted to see now, was her lying in a pool of her own blood. "Come on brothers, we can do this. Let's fight for our freedom!", one of them had shouted out of rage. They wanted to avenge their friend. They all activated their magicka and were ready to do battle against the girl.

Swish!

The sound erupted as a green coloured energy encircled the girl's legs and hands. It was the aura of magicka that emanated from the energy of the crystal she had absorbed. She struck her knuckles together and signalled her opponents to inch closer to her.

The others took her expression as that of an insult and couldn't wait to take their revenge. Dashing forward towards the girl one after the other which their arms outstretched. Within an instant, sperks of magickal aura were all over the place. The girl stood calmly and unfazed by what was happening at the moment.

Within the twinkle of an eye, she had moved from where she was and was already causing damage to the figures who had tried to attack her. A kick to the jaw, a fist to the gut and most of the figures had already fallen to their knees. The girl didn't give them time to recuperate and had her knuckles implanted into the faces of those who were on their knees. Since they have declared war against her, she was also ready to beat the hell out of them.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The sound erupted mutiple times to the rate at which the figure were getting their bodies whooped. "Was she even a girl in the first place?", one asked out. "What do you think I am then?", she asked while delivering an uppercut to the person. The intensity of the punch had knocked him out in an instant.

She did the same thing to the others since all of them had lost their urge to fight at the moment. The battle continued for several minutes before everything settled down and the young girl was the only one standing with her clothes drenched in fresh blood. She deactivated her magicka and walked out of the alleyway with a sadistic smile on her face.

"A bunch of losers", she said with a slight chuckle.
