Scar

'Father, why did you have to kill her?'

'why?!'

The man holds his little son's head in his arms. "Zhang shengshi!! He's just a child!! How could you bear to kill him?!"

The man screamed hysterically. He could not believe he witnesses the death of his son.

Shengshi massaged his temple with a tired groan.

"I'm sorry, but I had to..."

"Why must the infected be killed?" Yuishi suddenly interrupted shengshi.

'He is only infected! It doesn't mean he wants to hurt others!'

Shengshi, annoyed turned to look at the person who interrupted him with a sharp glare.

"You guys don't even try to think of a way to save the infected. Instead, you kill them off without a second thought!! How is that any different from the newbloods?!!

***

SWOOSH!!!

The scared punisher's sword slashed down, calculated and fast.

CLANG!!

The sound of metal Hitting metal resounded in the quiet street for quite some time, until there was a different sound of metal tearing flesh.

The scarred punisher was able to injure haian. The slash tore her shirt, then her skin. It slashed her right breast down to the left side of her waist.

She wanted to move, but her dagger hands touched some stones on the floor. She stared at it for some time before swinging the stones on the floor at the scarred punisher.

Scar raised his left hand to block the stones rushing to him, but...that was a bad mistake.

Haian, Seeing this opportunity, rushed to him and slashed down.

SKKKRSSSHHH

WHOOSH...

SPLURT..

Scar looked at his shoulder which was bringing out blood, and then to his hand on the floor.

"Poor thing. That earless mister doesn't seem to have any intention of saving you."

Haian said to scar as she swung her weapon again to cut his head in half.

"But isn't that how humans are? Cowardly, selfish, always looking out for their own safety. They will choose to sit by and watch their partner die; afraid to do even the simplest thing like asking others for help."

"SHUT THE HELL UP!!!"

Scar stoped the weapon with his teeth.

"Don't bring all humans into this! At least I know buyan isn't a selfish and cowardly bastard!"

"Senior!!"

The dagger singed deaper into his mouth tearing some of the skin of his mouth.

Buyan was anxious, he wants to do something, to help, but he doesn't know how to start.

'What do I do... What do I do... What do I do...'

***

On top of a skyrise building, Buyan and scar stood, looking at the city.

"Senior, how do you get that scar on your face?" Buyan curiously asked.

Scar lights up a cigarette.

"I did it to myself." He replied calmly.

"Why?"

"It is to remind me of how my grandma saved me when I was a timid brat. I was a coward in the past. Seeing a gang's will terrify the hell out of me, let alone a newblood."

He puffs out some smoke.

"So, when a newblood broked into my house, I did nothing but beg for mercy. It was my grandma who held onto the newblood, giving me a chance to excape."

At this point, tears flowed freely from scar's eyes.

"And I just watched as she was brutally tortured by that newblood. I couldn't do anything else but run away with my tail between my legs. When I went back all I saw was her corspe that has been sucked dry."

Buyan wanted to stop him, but decided to let him express himself fully.

"From that day on, I vowed to become strong. I will not lose someone again because of my cowardice."
