Chereads / Electra City / Chapter 17 - Chapter Seventeen

Chapter 17 - Chapter Seventeen

"STOP!!!?!?!??!!!?"

Shit, I fucked my voice with this scream. Name's Karin. And I will save the people I love. I will save the city I love.

"Yeah?"

"Electra, don't. I know what you want to do. Don't."

"Killing your mother is a must. What do you propose??"

"Your freedom. Alone, you will struggle. But, I can be your right hand. I am Sandra Jones' Daughter.. I will be of use for anything that resolves around papers...."

"Karin!!? What do you think you are doing!? Your place is at home guarding my son. Stop blabbering shit and come here!!"

"...Electra, Accept me.. I'm not like Mind. I will never betray you. I want to give you my life."

So that I can save others. I meant it when I said that. Heroes are humans who must give away their life. So, it won't matter if some must die in order to keep the people of this city safe....

"You are ready to lose everything for that reason.. You are weirder than I thought."

"I know... Mother!! People of this city!!! I present you the Hero Killer Electra and myself, Her Right-Hand, Cross. We are here bacause we want to make a change. And for that to happen, heroes must be killed!!!"

"Your speech's better than mine. So, what do we do now??"

"Pray that we have a place to sleep.."

"Fair enough.."

And thus, I became one of Down City's Most Dangerous Criminal in a matter of hours. News got out that I was Sandra Jones' daughter. The mayor married to my mother divorced her. Jackson was adopted by a normal and happy family. And mother placed into prison for conspiracy.. All of that because of me. I'm glad and sad at the same time. Jackson and Mother are safe, but I still destroyed their life, along with mine though. Electra and I, homeless, had to go stay over at her friend's. The thing is, her friend's the Queen of the Underworld... I know what you must be asking yourself. She's a poor orphan living in Down City as a poor one. The reality is a bit different.....

"We will be staying here for a while. Down City is too dangerous at the moment."

"I know. So, who is that friend of yours??"

"me!! hello, i'm maria torpez.. nice to meet you, karin jones... my assistant here, brettania, will help you transport your master's luggage."

"Daisy Ash. My oldest friend. How are you??"

"better than you.. i heard what happened to you. i'm sorry your peaceful life didn't work.. i wanted it to work."

"Me too. But enough talking about that, I want to know about you. Did you meet you-know-who??"

"i did.. it was last week and it was like in my dreams. he was close to me. he was real. he was big, like real big. a real man. he even got pleased that i used the name he gave to his novel antagonist.. i was like, oh my gawd!!!?"

"You mean, the 'Maria Torpez' thing.. Wow!! I'm jealous..."

"You bet! hahaha...."

Queen of the Underworld is super friend to Electra. Quite a shock!! Daisy Ash, Queen of the Underworld was the queen since her birth. Her husband was chosen using the same method too. She recently became The MOST WANTED for the fall of the rich kind... That woman is trouble.. I must know how they know each other.... But it's s bit complicated. You see, that Brettania here is a real leech....
