Chapter 17 Her

The night has come and I've been pacing back and forth in front of my bed. My body is hysterical looking for pain but it's not just that, I went to the mirror to see myself.

My hair is black and with bangs, it is slashed that it reached down my waist. My skin color is pale, my face has a little sketch mark that is not visible except when a person looked closer. My height is about 5'6 and I have a petite figure. But what scared me is my eyes... My normal dark brown eyes are turning pure black then it... goes red.

No! Mom and Carlo are here, the people I've been protecting from enemies are here... and now, I have to protect them from me.

I wear my clothes, The Silencer's clothes to be exact. I'm trying with myself not to be overpowered by The Silencer, but I can't hold it much longer.

I don't know why, maybe because my body is becoming hysterical for not getting the pain it wanted. Or maybe it didn't get out more often. Either way, I have to get out and away from this house as soon as possible.

I jumped down from my window. But...

I felt someone behind me that made my eyes red, I can sense it... I looked around to see a shocked Carlo, his face held fear.

My body runs towards him for a kill, I tried my best to control it when it turned black I stopped "Run!" I whispered-yell trying my best to reach my bike before The Silencer takes over all of my essences.

Carlo seems shocked by what he witnessed and moves a little. Opening his mouth to speak but can't find his own voice.

I can sense myself losing again but I'm still fighting over it, that's why when I threw a knife at him, it missed. He seems to wake up and run, not saying anything, like his fear dominated his movement.

I run towards my bike and when I'm miles away from the house, I can't hold much longer so I let The Silencer take over my essence.

I looked around and see myself in a forest my hands have blood... but it's not mine. I am holding a knife in my right hand covered with... blood.

I searched for my motorcycle, it's dark meaning it did not take so long for The Silencer to take over maybe an hour or two. At least it did not take days. It would be a nightmare for everyone.

I saw my motorcycle and decided to go back to the mansion. On my way, I heard the sounds of ambulances and police cars.

The moment I reached the mansion. They are probably sleeping... So, I get inside the house.

When I take a step up the stairs. I heard a shuffle coming to the dining room. So, I decided to take a look and saw Carlo lying on the couch with a bottle of alcohol in his right hand. I take a look at the table and see five more empty bottles. He's drunk.

I ignored him as I went to my room, take a bath, dry my hair and wear my shirt and pajamas. I took sleeping pills to make me fall asleep.

I need to control myself, I need to control The Silencer. I should know when it'll wake up... I should know how to use her at the right time... I have to.

I also need to teach myself how to sleep without the aid of a substance.

There are things I need to achieve within these two years...

Someone's POV

The rumors are true, she's an expert in fighting, so fast like a flash! No, she's more than an expert. She's a monster. But there is one thing she failed to learn, she failed to learn having no weaknesses, it will make her fall. She still has a heart.

I'm standing from afar looking at how she fights, it's awesome, she didn't fail to impress me.

She killed those who tried to hurt an innocent, her looks as if she's ready to kill, which is true. At first, I was so scared.

I was a kilometer away from the incident, I was hiding while watching it, so I thought I'm safe but what shocked me is that she looked my way!

My heart pounded so fast that I can hear it. My hair strands seemed to stand, I felt like wishing to run away but I was glued at my spot. I've never been so scared my whole life, just now!

Her eyes, it's blazing with fire! All I can see are shadows of her but her eyes are shining in the fire.

The moment I looked at The Silencer, It's like I've seen the devil, just now...

It's not right, I am a well-trained assassin, and more than that, they feared me in my country, but I'm scared of her?! She's not human!

I immediately hide the moment I was on my right mind. When I looked back at the incident, she's not there!

I tried looking for her but she's nowhere to be found. She disappeared into thin air...

I called him.

"I lost sight of her." I simply stated and I heard a curse from him.

"I thought you're good. You said you are! That's why you volunteer to take that mission." He yelled at me.

"Yes I am, but I did not expect it to be like this, she's not even human!" I yelled back at him.

"Of course she's not, she's my precious weapon." He said calmly now, but I can sense him smirking.

"She killed 9 in this alley and 12 in the park. I have the 2 women and a kid as eyewitnesses that she saved. They're innocent. Now, what do you want me to do?" I asked him simply.

"Clean her mess. Leave the eyewitnesses, it would be great for her reputation as well as in the underground if the rumor spread." He stated.

"Got it." When I tried to end the call.

"Remember, keep an eye on her." He added and I ended it. Tch.

From far away land I came here just to see if the rumors are true. I thought it is impossible, I thought it's just a legend as the other rumor says it is.

But, when I saw it with my own eyes, I'm so shocked! Is this just a nightmare of mine? But the reality struck me. They created a monster.

A Supernatural. And for 18 years of existence, I found a person... that I would admire...

Most people do their best to gain my respect, even with the highest rank and a powerful one, others begged for it because I earned the highest reputation in my country.

But, I gave it to no one, because I've seen no one who deserves it. Now, I'll bow my head to only one person, and it's her.

Only her.
