Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Psychotic

A night lit with the moon, clouds flowing along the sky with the breeze. Even though it felt like it was about to rain, a person was moving along a dark alley, in an hour, when no one dares to go out unless they have a mind made of steel.

In his hand was something sharp that was shining with the moonlight. He kept moving forwards while moving the shiny object among his fingers. The confident steps he took forward were more than enough to make the person who was crawling backwards scream for help.

"Help!" He screamed his lungs out.

"No one is going to be here to help you out tonight. Look behind you, he said, bending down."

The man looked behind him and noticed that it was a dead end. There was no place for him to escape but he crawled back to the wall.

Guess you are still hoping to be alive with me here!

I, I did not do anything wrong to you. Why are you doing this to me?

So you did wrong to others didn't you, he put the shining thing up in the sky making it fall right into his thigh making him scream in pain.

Hope you liked it, he pulled the dagger out of his thigh.

The police will be here anytime soon and you will be caught, do you even know who I am? I will give you 1 million dollars if you let me go right now and I promise you that I will not report you to the police.

Why should I even believe you? He wiped away the blood on the dagger with white clothing.

Give me one good reason to believe what you are telling me?

I will give you money right now, the man lying on the ground opened up his briefcase showing his shining dollars to him.

It's your bad day my friend, I am not interested in money at all. You showed me something that made me want to cut you into pieces and colour one of my suits in blood. I wonder why you didn't recognise me, but it's alright. I will tell you the reason why you are doing this a moment before you die.

He put his shining blade on his shivering neck, when I slide this blade blood will rain here and in a minute even before you know you will be dead.

I can guarantee you that it is not painful. Believe in me.

Even before the man could say anything he slid his dagger, making the blood rain on him. After enjoying the free show he saw out of murdering a man, he stood up.

I forgot the reason you died today is that you robbed someone but I really enjoyed you. You are one of a kind, he left the place silently putting the dagger in his coat pocket.

The moon was shining over him, but his face, hair and mouth were covered in an all-black hat and a mask. The leather gloves he took off were wet with blood, he put them into a bin while on his way.

"Guess I am finally home," he said, looking at a tall building. After going through 100 floors, he climbed all the stairs even though they wore him off. After 3 hours, he reached the floor where his house was, he knocked on the door and waited out tapping his leg, letting out his impatience.

The door opened and a lady dressed in a maid outfit came out.

Master Phoenix, are you home?

Wash these for me! he took off the coat and the hat he was wearing right after stepping into the house.

Will do master, your dinner is prepared," she said, switching on the lights, revealing the luxury that was hidden in the darkness.

He quietly went to the table and sat down loosening one of his buttons, and opened up the closed dishes. A luxury dinner that a person couldn't even get at a 7-star restaurant was right in front of him.

He slowly ate the food and finished everything off without leaving anything.

I will be in my room, don't bother me unless it is urgent.

"Okay Master," she bowed her head.

He went into his room and closed his door, letting out a deep sigh. What a great day, he smiled when he should have been shivering in fear.

Now that moonlight is gone, I can be myself. I wonder when these people are going to discover that I am the person behind all these murders that happened on full moon days' but for sure today was too easy for me.

My 13th pray, which I have been eyeing for almost a year.

Good job Aiden, he tapped his own head smiling. You just got rid of an unnecessary person from the system, he kept talking to himself smiling but he sat on the floor breaking into tears.

"I am sorry," he said, putting his hands together.

I really didn't mean to do it, he said with tears rolling down his eyes.

But it was necessary to get rid of him, wasn't it? He started to smile again. His emotional state kept changing from minute to minute, with no one by his side he kept talking to the thin lonely air.

Without even changing the clothes which the blood had touched, he lay down on the bed crouching down and covering himself with the thick white blanket.

The moon shining night brought them to sleep, making him fall into a deep sleep without dreams.

**********

Master, it's time for you to wake up. Chairman asked to see you first thing in the morning, she said aloud gently knocking on the door.

Chairman or whatever, I am not going to work today," he said, covering his head with a blanket.

Master Aiden, you should not be behaving like this. This is so not like you, how can you give up on the chairmanship this easily. I don't want to get kicked out by the chairman for not being able to complete his order. I will come in at the count of 10, please excuse me!

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, she kept counting, shivering behind the door, fearing to open the door, which was closed but not locked. She put her hand on the handle and gently pressed it down, opening the door just to see whether he was sleeping.

The door opened and she was pulled right into the room, Aiden was leaning his bare body on her looking straight into her eyes with his ferocious eyes. She dared not to say a word, she kept looking down in fear to look into his eyes.

Come on, look at me? You dared to come into my room when I clearly told you not to and this time you didn't just sit back and wait till I came out, you dared count and forcefully opened the door.

What a strong mind you have developed to barge into my room like this.

It's not that master, I didn't mean to invade your privacy. I was just following the headmaster's orders, your father wanted you to attend the chairman meeting which is going to be held this morning. He told me to make sure that I come there on time no matter what or else he said that he will kick me out.

Let me repeat again, He is not my father! I have said this to you, haven't I?

Consider yourself lucky that I am going to let you go away today. There will definitely be a day where I can take it all out on you, he let go of his grip on her hand. She went out of the room, looking down shivering like a deer who saw a hunter.

Master the breakfast is ready for you, please have it after getting dressed," she said, running away into her room.

After spending half of the morning soaking his body in the bathtub he came out of it and walked to the wardrobe and got dressed in a suit while leaving his grumpy creepy black clothes aside.

Let's see what that creepy old man got for me.

Young Master, you have to be there at 10 AM and it's already 9.30 AM. You will be late for your first meeting, please try to get ready soon before the chairman comes here himself, she raised her voice.

I am not having breakfast and I will walk to the company by myself. You don't have to get all dressed to come with me as my secretary. I am pretty sure that the old man told you to come with me, also don't try to hide things from me in this household. If you did something behind my back don't expect me to not know about it, he came out of his room while adjusting his tie.

His voice was exceptionally loud enough to drive anyone's soul out of their body.

You owe me an explanation, if you dare to go missing, I will hunt you down. I am pretty sure you know what sort of a person I am, right? you are nothing to me.

Hand me over that thing under your pillow! He said, looking straight into her eyes.
