Chereads / QUEST FOR REVENGE / Chapter 2 - Chapter 1: Beginning

Chapter 2 - Chapter 1: Beginning

Clara was still a child when she witnessed her parents murdered in cold blood. It all started that fateful evening when they were all having dinner and chatting happily but then that happy moment was disrupted by a knock. The knock wasn't the usual friendly knock, it was one fierce enough to send shivers down your spine. Immediately her parents knew something was going to go wrong and that was why they made Clara hide so she won't be seen.

Those memories never seemed to have left. She made it her mission to avenge the death of her parents, that was the reason why she trained really hard.

-somewhere in the village -

A beautiful girl can be seen assisting an old lady. Though Clara's aim was to kill those who murdered her parents but she was also very kind hearted. She helped the old woman get back on her feet after dealing with the thieves who tried to snatch her purse. 'Thank you very much dear' the old woman said. 'It's nothing ma'am, hope you didn't get hurt?'. The old woman chucked and said 'no dear, I didn't. By the way, what's your name?'. 'I'm Clara'

She and the old woman conversed till they eventually parted ways. It was late at night when she got home. She went straight to her room and made sure she took a shower before she laid on her bed, as she laid on her bed different thoughts started to race through her mind. When she was little, she always imagined her parents being present at her graduation ceremony but that dream was cut short. She instantly felt a sharp pain in her chest, one she couldn't control and cried till she eventually fell asleep. She woke up in the morning and realised she had cried herself to sleep. She let loose her long platinum blonde hair as she made her way to the bathroom. After taking a bath and having breakfast she decided to meet with her best friend Kimberly. Kim was aware of the pain her best friend always felt and made a promise to assist her in her mission. Today they made an agreement to meet at a cafeteria where Kim would be giving her info about the supposed murderers.

They met at the café and discussed. 'I was only able to spot the leader and he matched the exact description you gave me. He didn't even seem to have aged. He is the king of our kingdom. He was last spotted at the amusement park with his family'. After Kim told her this, the fire and hatred in her burned even more, her parents murderer was royalty and he's living his life like nothing ever happened.

'You know, I still don't understand why the king would be so cruel to kill someone from his kingdom, not like the person was an obstacle or something but just an ordinary commoner', she noticed the change in her friends mood and added 'Don't you worry, I'll help you in this mission' trying to calm her friend who was already tensed up.
