Chapter 1 - PROLOGUE

I was suddenly knocked down on the street due to drunkenness.My head suddenly hurt for an inexplicable reason.

I opened my eyes and I felt that I was on the other place.

The rotting wooden door creaked slowly open and echoing footsteps invaded the silence that hung like a cloak around the house. A thick carpet of dust clung to every object, the rays of light shining through the shattered glass windows catching on the particles suspended in the stagnant air. I moved deliberately, dust billowing into clouds as I passed. I continued to move through the house, kicking up more dust until it was difficult to see through the billions of particles that now swirled in the air. Then I came to a door, faded green, paint curling with age, brass handle almost consumed by a thick network of cobwebs, reaching out, I turned it.

A woman sitting in a chair, bruised with her face closed, I could see the marks of the large wounds and the dripping of blood from her head.

"Miss are you ok?" I asked

But she was still silent. I walked a few steps until I reached her. I checked her pulse, and knows that she is still alive.

I suddenly backed away when I saw a man coming. wearing black trousers, slacks, khakis, button-downs,polos,ties and with hus sneakers shoes. I'm sure that he's a business man.

He stepped closer and approached the woman and slapped her freakin' face. The slap was as loud as a clap and stung her face. It had been an open-handed smack and it had left a red welt behind. Just below her eye was a small cut where the ring had caught her. She staggered backwards, clutching her face, eyes watering.

"You wrecked our business Cataliya. That kind of stuff is under of my control an I know you know that, Once it was wrecked, every hardworks of mine will just turn into ashes, but I know you envy me! Because of what? Our father loves me more than you huh bitch? "

I am surprised when the woman slowly opened her eyes and  answered in a calm but combative voice.

"It is my Job, to cure the sick person. You know what? Your selfishness will be the first thing that will drown you . You dickhead, deserves to rot in hell." she glared and take a deep sigh.

"And what are you thinking? That you will be called a hero because of what you did? Literally no way, now Cataliya, face me and ill show you what real demon is. I'll show you how to end one's life. Take a breathe for one last time Cataliya. Close your eyes. And as you open it you'll be burn in hell,you will be the first one to rot in hell. GOODBYE MY DEAREST SISTER."

"AHHAHAHAHA"

Boom*

A very loud explosion from the gun rang.

The bullet spat out of his hand, red in the darkness. It hit the woman in the chest, propelling her down in her chair. For a few seconds she looked up at me as if trying to admire me one last time. Then the black waves folded over her.
