chapter 2
Loud Applauds and screams are heard from the crowd of citizens. As the mayor stepped down from his car. And walk into the conference. He waved and smiled at the people who were present, showing gratitude. He turned to the camera lights flashing and smiled at the photos taken before proceeding towards the mic.
The screams and Applauds died as he stood behind the mind.
"Thank you all. Thanks for coming faithful citizens…..
The mayor addresses the citizens. While about 7.4mm was a sniper aiming for the mayor.
A woman on the rooftop of a skyscraper aimed a sniper at the mayor. Her eyes focused on the telescope.
She looks like the professional she is. Her short hair was let down, following the rhythm of the wind. Her fingers placed well on the trigger ready to fire at any moment. She studies her targets every movement like a monitor.
A helicopter was behind her. There was two people sitting on the pilot's seat. while on the passenger seat. Was a girl Operating on a computer.
"7 minutes remaining, hurry up"the girl on her computer said through the headphones.
"don't rush me bitch"the one holding the sniper while laying on the floor said.
She aimed for a headshot. and she will only shoot if it's a headshot. Her lips curved up into a smile. Her pointer was pointed on his forehead which means the perfect time for a headshot.
Without wasting time she pulled the trigger. Within a minute, the bullet traveled 7.4m and it went directly into the mayor's forehead. He drops dead followed by loud screams from the crowd. The low place became chaotic. The guard's. Talking through their walkie talkie calling for backup. But the mayor was dead already
Baxley smiled after killing her target. She stood up with the sniper. Then hang it over her shoulders before proceeding to the jet.
She climbs the stairs before sitting down. She placed the sniper on her legs. Then draw down her face mask. Reliving a mature version of jaya also known as Baxley Johnson AKA lady black rose.
She was named Lady black rose. beautiful and deadly. after she killed fifteen men in a single arm wrestle.
Jackie, the girl on her computer with pink hair, turned to her.
"Now that you've killed your first target, will you continue with your revenge?"Jackie asked and glanced at her without replying.
"I will take that as a yes,"she said, turning back to her computer.
"Lady black rose please put on your seatbelt"one of the pilots said. Only one deadly glare from Baxley shut him up.
Apart from Jackie, nobody can talk to Baxley freely. She doesn't smile. Her face is always stoney and fierce. Like that the jet took off without her putting on her seatbelt.
Few minutes later he lands on the well trimmed grass, of an unknown location.
Baxley and Jackie highlights from the helicopter. walking in a fast space towards an old building that looks like it would just break any moment from now.
Baxley opened the door and they went in. They walk into the house. Everything in it is screaming old fashioned. Straight to the wall and a scanner appears. It scanned both of them before giving access. And the wall cracks open. They walked in before it closed.
They went into an elevator. And it went underground. With no one of them speaking with each other.
The elevator reached its destination. The elevator door opens and they walk out of it, with Baxley still maintaining her stoney face.
The whole place was like an underground clan. Everybody is busy operating on their systems. Some make calls while training.
They all stopped when they saw Baxley coming in. They stood up in a rush and dow their head in respect. During these past few years Baxley has helped each and everyone of them. Evening with her stoney face she still sleeps with a good heart. She didn't answer their greetings but instead kept walking. Jackie already left her when they came in.
A girl came up to her. She didn't stop to hear what the girl wanted to say but instead kept walking. And it was hard for the girl to keep up with her space so she ran along.
"My greetings lady black rose, black dragon demands your presence.''she said and walked away.
Baxley heads towards black dragon's chamber. Without knocking she walked in. He was standing watching the news. And it was all about the mayor's death. One body needs to tell him who the corporation is. He already knows.
She stood far behind him watching the news, her expression not changing.
He switched off the TV with a displeased look on his face. He turns to her with the remote still in his palm.
His huge figure covered her like a gigantic shadow. He wore a black totol neck shirt that had long sleeves. His pants too were skinny. Looks like a black devil with the gold chain hanging on his neck.
"Why did you do it?"he asked. but what answered him was silent. Baxley stood staring at him dead in the eye without blinking.
"I asked. Why the fuck did you do that"he yelled throwing the remote away. His deep and husky voice that should be sending shivers down Baxley spines. But instead she didn't flinch. She just smirks like a psychopath.
"Instead of yelling like a brainless idiot, you should be protecting my other targets because I would kill them all in a brutal way."she said. And walk out. Black dragon as always been feared by everyone in the underworld. But not Baxley. He saved her that night after he carried out a assisnation. He met her lying almost lifeless on the ground. Than he took her in.
He treated her while she was still healing. And trained her, they became close. He is the only one aside from Jackie who knows about her past.
"Fuck"he cursed and his telephone rings.
Baxley stood In Front of a middle school building. She was changed in a complete different dress. Her hair was let down. And she wore a short gown. That ends uptop her knees. She looks completely different from her previous look. And even had a smile plastered on her face. She looks more like a mom.
Her joy increased when she saw her daughter, Raya walking with her friend twinkle. Yes she got pregnant when Larisa implanted the spam into her. And it was a miracle Raya didn't die in her stomach.
For her daughter she is the perfect mom. While in the underworld she is as deadly as a silent pistol.
"Mom"Raya calls excitement taking the most of her. She ran off to her mom, and twinkle followed too.
"Ms. Johnson"Twinkle called as they approached her.
She hugged them both immediately they got to her. Kissing each of their foreheads.
"How was school today?"she asked.
"School was great Ms Johnson,"twinkle replied.
"Oh really, what about you Raya?"she asked her daughter.
"Boring"Raya gave an eye roll. Baxley only chuckled. Since Raya got admitted into school she has never found it interesting.
"Let's go" she said, opening the back seat of her car for Twinkle to go in. She went to open the passenger Raya followed her to the otherside. She opened the door for her and she went in, then she got into the driver's seat before going in. Then they drove off.
Few minutes later they arrived at Twinkle's house.
"Byee.."she waved as she got down from the car.
"Byee",they waved back. And watch her run into her house before driving off.
"So, where do you want to go? Let's spend time together"Baxley said. While driving.
"Let's stop at the progie automobile group of the company"Raya said and Baxley immediately frowned.
That's Reggie's company, and he is one of her targets. The fact that he is the reason she was bullied and killed because of him makes everything worse. Reggie is the father of her child but they both don't know about their existence. Reggie has just disappeared since that day twelve years ago. But she knows that he was the one running his companies. As information from the inside. She just didn't know the time he would return.
"Mom"Raya yelled, snapping Baxley out of her thoughts. She quickly turned the wheel avoiding an incoming truck.
"Fuck"she muttered her breath.
"Mom, what were you thinking?"she half yelled.
"Sorry"she apologized.
"I said stop at progie automobile group of company"Raya snapped angrily.
"Easy girl, not like we got hit by the truck. What do you want from progie"Baxley asked.
"Mom, just do it,"Raya snapped. Baxley gave an eye roll before taking a u turn.
As they drove past the billboard. Different videos and photos of how the mayor got shot were everywhere.
Raya glanced at everyone off and signed. She doesn't know the corporation was her mother. Like she doesn't know anything about Baxley's past life.
"I hope the killer gets caught before he kills someone else"Raya muttered enough for Baxley to hear. And Baxley only glanced at her once before facing the road.
They got to progie Raya instead and Baxley waited outside in the parking lot.
While she went into the company to do her business.
Baxley stood outside her car waiting for her daughter, when she started seeing someone walking out from another car just five cars away from her. The person finally showed it's facing walking out of the parking lot. Her eyes widened when she saw the face.
It was as if the person noticed her present. He turned and then faced her. He steered at her in shock. Just when he was about to make movements towards her, Raya came running.
"Mummy"she called, running excitedly towards Baxley and she tore her gaze from the person to Raya.
"Mummy lets go ''Raya said when she got to Baxley who didn't hesitate before getting into her car. Raya got in too. And she drove off.
"Jaya"he called the shock written on his face.
