1 Prologue

What...is...this?

I stared blankly at the screen of my phone.

Inside was a picture.

A picture of my battered, beaten and naked sister, along with a few familiar boys posing for the picture.

What the hell is this?!

Not only that, there was a caption that said "Your sl*t of a sister really knows how to fuck a person," with laughing emojis written after the sentences.

Rage begins boiling inside of me.

WHAT...THE FUCK YOU GUYS HAVE DONE?!

HOW....DARE..YOU!

My sister....

Anna...

No...

Why was she involved?

What have we done to deserve this?

I begin to grip my phone so hard, it almost seem to burst into two.

F*ck Jamie, f*ck Peter, F*ck Robert, F*CK ALL OF THEM!

I threw my phone at the wall, shattering it to pieces.

Tears now begin to form in my eyes.

You bastards have been as*holes to me for years, and now... you've involved... my sister.

What did she do?!

WHAT DID SHE F*CKING DO?!

YOU'RE ALL GOING TO PAY!

Tears now rolled on both sides of my cheeks.

I'M GOING TO MAKE YOU ALL SUFFER!

I began to throw a tantrum inside my room, throwing my things everywhere.

After about a few minutes of raging and screaming, I finally calmed down.

Anna's not been home for a few days already.

At first, I thought she was only busy.

But as time passes, I began to worry and tried calling her a few times, but to no avail.

And now...

These guys that have been making my life so hard in the past few years have finally done it.

I'm already satisfied with my previous life.

As long as they do not touch my family.

But this time, I finally cannot let it pass.

Those assholes r*ped her.

I'm weak and everyone knows it.

But...I have to try now.

For the sake of myself and my sister.

There's no use calling the cops.

I'm the one who's going to bring judgement onto them.

I then hurriedly went out of the room and immediately went to the kitchen.

Browsing the kitchen wares, I finally found what I'm looking for.

A sharp kitchen knife.

Pocketing it, I went back to my room and changed into new clothes, A black oversized hoodie and cargo pants.

I then make my way towards a nearby shelf and searched my wallet.

After a few seconds of searching, I finally found it.

Opening the wallet, my eyes immediately landed on a twenty dollar.

If only those bastards haven't been extorting money from me in the past few years, I probably would have managed to save a thousand dollars.

The monthly allowances my mother worked so hard to give me only ended up in the pockets of these f*ckers.

Why?

WHY AM I SO WEAK?!

WHY AM I SO PATHETIC?!

I immediately grabbed my wallet and headed outside, thinking of what I'm going to do now.

Should I tell my mother?

Of course no, that would only burden her further, she's got a lot on her back right now trying to raise me and my sister up.

Apparently my father died when I was still young, my mother still refuses until now to tell us the reason why.

I want to help them by getting myself a job.

And yet I can't, my mother keeps forcing me to study so that I can have a good and better future.

She also gets mad when I tried applying for a part time job.

Saying that I must concentrate with my studies and mustn't be burdened by something like that.

While she will have to shoulder everything so that me and my sister can have a comfortable life.

I don't know which one of us is the most selfish one.

So me and my sister don't have any more choices but to dedicate ourselves to our studies.

And then... these f*ckers came to my life.

After readying myself, I was now good to go.

Twisting the doorknob of my apartment room, I stepped outside into the hallway.

Walking the path for a few minutes, passing by a dozen doors leading to different apartment rooms, I finally arrived at the building's lobby.

Ignoring the greeting of the receptionist, I made my way outside of the building.

A busy walkway immediately greeted me once outside, numerous people passed by me as I stared at the buildings and skycrapers in the distance.

Welcome to the real world, Albert.

I pulled my hoodie up as I begin to walk down the street.

Glancing at the street as I walked, I spot a few police cars speeding down the busy road, sirens beeping.

They're probably on their way to hunt some criminals or something.

Just another day in New Arbor city.

After walking for a few more minutes, I arrived on a bus stop.

There were also three people waiting in line.

Standing besides an elderly woman, I patiently waited for the bus.

And after another few minutes or so, the bus finally arrived.

The doors made a hissing sound as it opened for us.

"Nest Avenue, second street" I told the driver before making my way towards the nearby seat and sat.

The driver silently nodded as he closed the bus doors and finally started to drive the vehicle.

Alright, just wait for me you bastards, I'm coming.

I looked through the window and observed the buildings and people as we passed through them.

Hotdog stalls, vendors, joggers, and various other things you would occasionally found in a 'normal' city.

Just like that cop pinning down a 'troublemaker' on a pole.

Or that guy who immediately ran away after successfully managing to pickpocket a bystander.

You would always see this things happening in New Arbor city.

And for me, it's pretty normal.

After taking a few turns, left and right, and occasionally dropping a few passengers to their destination, I was finally dropped to a bus stop near my destination.

And from there, It's only going to be a few minute walk towards Jamie's house.

Yes, that f*cker's house.

After a few minutes of walking, I now stood in front of their house's gate.

Stay calm Albert, there's no use going back now.

I steeled myself as I slowly unpocket my knife hidden in my... well... pockets.

Here we go.

I tried opening the gate, but it seems to be locked.

Well, f*ck it.

I started climbing the fence like wall into their yard and hopped down after successfully reaching the top.

Alright, I can already feel my hands shaking.

No, my entire body!

Is it fear? or perhaps something else? I don't know.

But the only thing I know is I have to do it, and then I'll find my sister and bring her home after that.

I hope she's still alive right now.

Please...

I then began to make my way towards the front door.

Ah shit, I'm finally doing it.

Taking a deep breath, I finally knocked on the door.

No answer.

I knocked again.

Still no answer.

I again remembered the picture those bastards sent me an hour ago.

my sister... beaten and bruised....and naked.

F*CK!

I began to furiously knock on the door.

"WELL, THERE'S NO USE IN KNOCKING WHEN YOU'VE ALREADY TRESPASSED THE FENCE!" I suddenly yelled for no reason.

At that, I backed of a few meters away, took a deep breath, and charged towards the door, opening, and at the same time, breaking it.

I stumbled into the floor, my face falling flat on the ground.

A female's scream was suddenly then heard in front of me.

I looked up and saw Jamie's sister, Margaret, wide eyed and looking at me as if I've grown a second head.

It seems she was about to check outside when I suddenly barged in like a f*cking criminal.

"WH-WHO ARE YOU?!" she stammered.

She doesn't know me since she studies in a different school.

But I...

I know her since Jamie always talks about her a lot.

And just like me, she treasures her sister a lot.

I smiled at this.

I don't know why... But why am I feeling happy right now?

What the heck is wrong with me?

Without hesitating, I immediately thrusts the knife towards the panicked girl.

Caught unprepared, she received my attack like butter to a knife.

And just like that, she fell to the floor, clutching her bleeding abdomen.

"Wha-what....I-It h-hurts... ah b-brother..." she stammered with blood in her mouth.

Ah, what the hell have I done?

My body trembled as I dropped the knife on the floor.

I'm...

I'm still like before.

Weak and pathetic... a-and stupid.

But...

That's why...

That's why I have to change now.

Resolving myself, I picked the knife from the floor, held it in my hands.

And... stabbed her again, this time in the heart.

Killing her instantly.

Oh god, I've done it!

My.... first.. kill.
