Painful memories

After waking up, Asher couldn't remember how he got in this place.

"Where am i?" He wondered, geting up from the cold ground, inspecte the place where just wake up, seeing a poorly lit place with a lot of dirt, dust and cobwebs everywhere.

"Am I caged?" Soon Asher realized this fact, he couldn't remember how got to this place, so tried to think about the last thing he remembered.

Beeing this when he was being taken in an ambulance on the way to the hospital because he had passed out and his nostrils would not stop bleeding.

Then he remembers some loud noises of gunshots and ... A memory, beeing that of his mother and sister protecting him.

When the shooting began, the bodyguards who always protected them had removed Asher's stretcher from the ambulance to Miriam and Leila, taking them to an area where they would be safer.

After that he remembers that at one point the enemy had unleashed a barrage of bullets managing to kill all his guards and, in the crossfire his mother and sister that they were using their bodies to protect him from any danger were hit by some bullets and... they were no longer alive.

"No ... M- mother and Leila, she- they ... no, no, no, no, no." Dropping to the ground on his knees Asher began to shed tears and with a broken voice he said.

"I- it can't be, b- because of me they are dead."

"No! It can't be! Because! I was the one who had to die, not them! Why them and not me! Why!" This was the only thing he could think of, 'Why them and not me'.

Since he was 4 years old, he had already accepted that he could not live after the age of 15, so he tried to spend the few years that he had left with the people he loved the most, mother, sister and his best and only childhood friend.

In recent years could already feel it, he felt weaker, his bones ached and felt that they could break with a simple touch, had started to vomit very frequently, making everything he ate vomit it back.

He began to have many headaches and dizziness, any simple movement or work tired him with great ease causing him to sleep many more hours than a normal human should, the 8 hours of sleep became 10 and then 12 hours, the little muscle he had could no longer be seen and now all that remained were bones and skin.

His skin that had a healthy color was now pale like that of a corpse, his entire appearance at this time was like that of a zombie that had recently transformed.

In this moment of pain and chaotic thoughts Asher heard the sound of a door opening and closing, then heard the sound of footsteps slowly approaching where he was.

Soon the footsteps stopped in front of his cell, Asher slowly raised his head to meet the gaze of the one guilty of being in this filthy place and the one guilty of killing the people he loves the most.

The two pairs of eyes met, one was blue showing clear amusement by what he was seeing and the beautiful smile that hung below them made it more evident, the other pair of eyes were dark and without light, as if the person with those eyes was completely dead inside.

"Why?" Asher asked in a cracking voice after seeing who he was.

The person in front of him was none other than Clark, his roommate. One to see that these two people had the same ages would be surprised.

One looked like 14 years old and the other looked like he was in his early 20s, but the truth was that Clark's body had matured much faster than any boy his age so he looked older.

He was only 14 years old, this also explains his impulsive decisions like hiring a gang of criminals without seeing the future consequences.

Why would you do something like hire people you don't even know to kidnap a girl?

Because Clark wanted to put his vile hands on Leila's body and make her pay for the humiliation of that day.

Clark would confess his feelings to Leila on a school day surrounded by students, he was not afraid and did not doubt that Leila would accept his feelings sooner or later because he was attractive and is a boy with money who was always surrounded by girls, he had the confidence of have it.

He thought that Leila was like these girls who would be impressed because of her power and she only played being difficult.

But the truth was very harsh, Leila would reject him again but in the worst possible way and would ridicule him in front of the whole school.

She, tired of this situation, exploded and ridiculed Clark in front of everyone because she was already upset, Leila more than once had already told her that she liked someone else but young Clark with his tiny brain could not understand and thought that she was resisting.

He thought that with his power could get any girl in the world, even the number one beauty of the school Leila Waller who was rumored that when she grew up was going to be one of the most beautiful girls in the world.

After that day of school, Clark swore in his heart that he would make her pay for such humiliation.

A few months later Clark had the opportunity to finally hire a gang of gangsters with the money his father gave him every month.

The money for Clark wasn't important, but for the gangsters it was a lot of money and they ended up accepting the mission without much trouble.

After a time of closely following Asher's family, the gangsters would one day get a chance to kidnap their target.

That day due to the collapse of Asher, his family would act prey to panic leaving the house with a few bodyguards to protect them.

But due to their lack of care, 'The Infernal Cancerbero' gang would take advantage of this situation to kidnap Leila.

After all, the Waller family was not just any family, it was one of the richest in the country and should not be underestimated.

The 'Infernal Cancerbero' would take advantage of this situation and would close the path where the ambulance would pass. where Leila was going.

Trying not to aim where their target was, they would start a shootout against the bodyguards protecting them.

After a few minutes the situation of the gang 'Infernal Cancerbero' did not look good, because they were restraining themselves trying not to accidentally hurt their target they had only managing to kill a few bodyguards.

On the other hand, the well trained bodyguards reduced the number of enemies very quickly, causing the head of the gang called Francisco to panic, without any other alternative, he would give the order to shoot with everything they had if they wanted to get out of that place alive.

A short time later they managed to kill all the bodyguards but with the barrage of bullets some would hit their target, killing her.

Leaving Asher alone alive, they would take him to Clark and leave him in the basement of the mansion, which turned out to be an old dungeon where formerly slaves were locked up and tortured from the time where kings previously existed.

Clark, after paying the gangsters for poorly done work, would go down to the dungeon of the mansion to meet Asher.
