Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Gunshots, screams, shouts, people were running, everywhere was on fire.

 Leslie was confused, but she still had to find her dad, she didn't know what happened but after the talk with her dad, she heard gunshots, then screams, then...

"Kiddo..., She heard someone call her. She frozed on her tracks turned and saw her dad, coughing, leaning on a desk for support, he had been shot and was bleeding seriously.

"Dad?

"Kiddo, he managed to say again.

"Dad,who did this to you?

"Becky

"I knew it, I told you dad.

"You..were right kiddo.

"I'll call the ambulance.

"It's already my time kiddo...run kiddo, run Becky (coughs) she wants to inherit everything, she will come for you, he takes out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket then light a stick.

"I can't just leave you here dad.

"I'm a monster, I killed people...this is...just my atonement(coughs), my wages.

"But-

 Someone walked in, Leslie ran and hid behind a desk, he looked around obviously searching for someone, then another walked in she had a feminine structure, it was...

"Madame Becky, she is not here.

"Find her, I want her dead or alive.

"Yes, Madame.

 Leslie frozed, her dad coughs and draws the attention of Becky.

"Oh, you are still alive?

"Bec-

"-You don't deserve to call my name, you think after killing my friend you would go scot-free?

"I... have killed...so many people, he says taking a long puff

"Lili.

"My.. ex-wife..?

"Yes, Lili, Lili was my best friend but you killed her and that stupid daughter of yours kept shut, I knew Lili was messed up but I knew she would never commit suicide, you killed her and you will pay with your own life, so will your daughter.

"Lea..ve Leslie out.. of this

"She is a monster just like you, monsters don't deserve to be alive

"I...killed her Mo...ther not her

"But she saw her died, just watch and see how I will claim everything all in honour for Lili.

Mr. Goutham laughed hard, then coughed loud, he takes another puff.

"Leslie will...fight in my honour, I'm prepared to die

"May you rest in pieces, she said then shot Mr.Goutham again, he gave up, his stick of cigarette in his mouth.

 Becky left, when Leslie was sure the coast was clear she ran for her dear life not stopping for a second, running into the woods, she missed a step, landed face flat then passed out.

The smell of antiseptic woke her up, everywhere looked white and her eyes still felt blurry.

"Oh, you are awake, came the soft voice of an unknown woman, still adjusting her eyes to the surrounding she took note of everything, she looked at her bandaged leg, a mini size TV, a tray which contained some drugs, the room looked neat and well kept, the unknown woman left then returned with a huge man, he had an ugly scar at the left side of his cheek, he looked scary but at the same time friendly.

"She just woke up now.

"Okay, you are dismissed.

 The unknown woman left but the huge man stayed behind watching her closer.

"Who...are you, what do you..want?

"Still as sharp as your father, I'm Godfather and a close friend of your dad.

"Godfather?...what do you want?

"Revenge, and I know you want that too, since Becky caused this, he dragged his words.

 Leslie remembers everything, the gunshots, the screams, Becky's conversation and her father's death.

"How will you make that happen? 

"Through your help and are you ready to risk it?

"I'm ready..to do anything, to get my revenge.

"It is settled.
