2 Chapter One : Nightmares

" get inside Ally and don't come out until I tell you to" her mother told her what to do. Right now they are people outside their house with guns, they've killed the bodyguards and gateman. Alicia watch as her father's friend came in with a gun in his hands with a broad smile on his lips. " Well don't act all surprise to see me Francis, don't tell me you didn't suspect me?" " hu" he fake gasp acting all surprise.

"What did I ever do to you Antonio?" Francis ask. Actually he is really surprised to see his best friend acting like this.

" what did you ever do to me?" he ask turning all serious " you had everything I ever wanted. You had the money but too greedy to share, in high school you were the famous one but I was the nerd. every girl drool over you while I was looked down on. you took Stella away from me when I told you I loved her" he shouted.

" I never loved you Antonio. I always loved and will always love Francis" Stella yell which made Antonio to slap her in annoyance. " but I gave you a job which you are doing great in it and you have a wife and a fourteen years old son" Francis said looking at his wife who is wincing in pain because of the slap, he can see blood coming from her lip and Antonio's finger print on her cheek. He gritted his teeth in anger. He wants to comfort his wife but he can't because of the man who is holding him down.

Meanwhile Ally who is seeing everything happen couldn't help but cry with her hand holding her mouth so a sound wouldn't escape her lips. Her brain is in turmoil. This is uncle Antonio who always laughs and play with her, he would bring her candy and other gifts but now, he is holding her parents at gun point.

Antonio laughed " I didn't want to work under you but by you or rather still above you. I wanted to be the boss, I never loved my wife compared to the way I love Stella. The only good thing that woman gave me was my son he yell.

"well, enough with the chit chat, let's get down to business" he snap his finger and one of his goons gave him a briefcase. He open it and remove a document. Pushing it forward towards Francis to sign " here sign this"

" what is that " Francis ask

" well this is all your assets and you are willingly signing it all to me. Oh how generous of you" he said it like he was talking about the weather and was acting all dramatic when he said the last part.

" And if I don't?" Francis ask

" then I'll kill you and your beautiful wife who was supposed to be mine. And where is that brat of yours" he ask realizing that Ally isn't here with them.

" it's the holidays so we send her to Britain to live with my sister" Stella was the first to talk.

" hmm okay then. Now sign or else I kill her" Antonio said with malice in his voice. He raise his gun and aim at Stella ready to shoot. Francis without a second thought sign the paper seeing as his wife's life is in danger.

" hmm how sweet of you. You really love your wife" and after saying that he pull the trigger. Stella's body fell to the ground lifelessly. Francis scream in Anger and grieve" Stellaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" his tears pour down his face. Alicia cried silently holding her mouth tight but a sob manage to escape her lips, but luckily Antonio was over joyed with his new acquired assets that he didn't hear.

He killed Francis as well before taking the document and leave after making sure that it looked like it was a robbery.

...

"huh" Alicia woke up from her sleep With the nightmare of what happen to her twelve years ago hunting her in her dreams. The images keeps flashing before her eyes, she can't have a peaceful night.

'I am going to make them pay, he should had let my family live.' she thought as tears drop down cheeks but she clean them harshly.

'I won't be a weakling, am going to be strong and punish everyone. His family is going to suffer for putting me through this.' she picked up her phone to make a call.

"hello uncle,"

"hello Ali" the person on the other side replied.

"I just called to let you know that am back home."

"oh princess, you should come live with me and your aunt." her call said with voice filled with joy.

"I would love to but I have scores to settle, I need to give a certain someone a doze of his own medicine." a knowing smirk form on her lip.

"Alicia honey I thought we talked about this, forget about him, Antonio will dance to the tune of his own music. Don't taint your innocent hands with blood," Alicia closed her eyes when she heard him but her mind was made up, she is going to make him pay.

"Uncle my mind is already made up, he is going to suffer for what he did to me and my parents. I became an orphan at a young age because of him, he is going to lose everything, his company, his wealth and most of all his family." her voice was cold and distant, she look at her family picture which was hanging on the wall with an emotionless face.

Her uncle sigh before saying "since your mind is already made up and not going to try to stop you. Just know that I will always be here for you just like I have always been, am going to be here when you need me" the talk for like five minutes more before Alicia hung up after wishing him farewell and extending her greetings to her aunt.
